“I am so happy I found Emily on Rover! She provided updates, pictures, and answered all my questions. My dog has some unique needs and allergies, so I’m thankful Emily took such great care of him. It's very clear to me that she cares so much about her pets too. Thank you for being an amazing caregiver to Bear!”


“This was my first time ever leaving my 7 month old puppy so I was a little nervous and not sure what to expect. Joanne put my mind at ease from the beginning and was WONDERFUL! Willow was happy and well taken care of while I was away. I even received daily updates with pictures which I looked forward to receiving. I highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. THANK YOU Joanne for taking such good care of my Willow!”


“Kristie is amazing! She is an absolute sweetheart and took such great care of our girl during our trip away. She is kind, understanding and offers all the flexibility and reassurance you may need when away from your fur baby. Fiona will definitely be back! Thank you Kristie!”


“Jason was amazing with my high needs kitty (chunk) while I was on vacation for a week. Jason truly has a gift with animals and it did not take long for Chunk to warm up to him. I got so many pictures and videos and I could tell that Chunk was more than happy during his stay. 🐱”


“Elaine was amazing! She kept me updated on Oreo’s care. She sent me photos. I felt happy to know that my dog was in great hands. Also, she had open availability. Which is great when you plan last minute trips. Highly recommend!!!”


“Thank you again Donna for taking such great care of my fur babies yet again. We had a worry free 2 week vacation knowing that they were in your hands. Both my husband and I looked forward to the daily dose of pup antics with your updates and videos. Thank you. I will continue to highly recommend your service.”


“Ana did a wonderful job caring for my Marley. She sent me daily pictures of Marley and made it so much easier to go on vacation knowing that my girl was being taken care of. I would definitely recommend Ana if you’re looking for a caring pet sitter.”


“I hesitate to leave this review for selfish reasons but gatekeeping is not an option. It was clear from the moment we walked in their beautiful home our dog would be well care for by Kevin and Natalie. Teddy is an old boy with anxiety but fit right in without issue. The pictures and updates helped us enjoy our vacation. We will absolutely book again. Thank you both!”


“Wow… I can’t say enough good things about our experience. We felt so at peace with the frequent updates and photos of our dog Lupo. The communication was excellent- lupo was picked up today happier than when we left and fit right in with taco and Ragnar. Thank you both for treating Lupo like one of your own. I would highly recommend their care to all my family and friends.”


About: I’ve owned 2 German Shepherds over the last 20 years- from puppy to senior & currently own a 5 year old mutt - since 8 weeks (she truly is a mix of everything) I am dog obsessed and can’t wait to get to know your yours! I work from home every Monday & Friday with hour long lunch breaks and am around most weekends! Plenty of time to care for another pup! I have a fenced in yard and a 5 year old puppy who would love to keep your dog busy! Dogs are family and should feel more than comfortable here!

“Absolutely amazing, Monica was very responsive, she sent photos, she definitely knew exactly what she was doing!!! She managed to make a good experience out of a tough day for my cat. I will never not appreciate how much love and comfort she provided for my fur baby.”


“Jenny is fantastic! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and messages, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. We’re very happy with her service and would definitely trust her to care for our dog again.”


“We couldn’t have been happier with the pet care Purvi provided while we were on vacation. From the moment we contacted her, the communication was clear and prompt. Our baby was in great hands! She provided daily updates with pictures, so we felt at ease knowing our furry baby was well taken care of. Our pet was treated like family, and we could tell he was loved and pampered. She followed all of our instructions to a T and even went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and happy. We will definitely be using Purvi’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate care for their pets while away. Thanks again, Purvi, for making our vacation worry-free!”

“By dog had such a good time, I honestly don't think he wanted to come home with us. Part of me was very happy about this and part of me was sad (I may have to get him a little friend ;). I would HIGHLY recommend Angela. She is wonderful with the animals and takes very good care of them. Very attentive to their needs and is understanding and treats ALL the dogs as if they were her OWN. ”
