“Sam was amazing! Communicated frequently and I came back from my trip to a happy dog with no issues. She genuinely likes having pancake around and I don’t see why I would use another rover while she is still in Seattle!”
“Lauren was amazing, and will absolutely use her again to watch my pup. She was great at communicating and sent lots of great photos. My dog loved her dog, and I think is coming home a happy and tired doggie!”
“Debra took such good care of our pup. Cricket can be a bit nervous in new situations but Debra put her at ease very quickly. They took long walks which Cricket loves. We got lots of photos and reports on how everything was going. We also appreciated the effort Debra took to be as prepared as possible for the things that would make our dog’s stay easy for everyone. She’s a gem!”
“We left our dog Charlie with Danielle and Joy for 4 days. We had a nice long conversation at the beginning about what Charlie's needs are and they were very willing to handle that. We let them know Charlie is a cuddler bug, can't eat chicken and hated other dogs and they were very respectful of all of those. They have a place for the dog to play, they sent loads of pictures and Charlie looked extremely happy in all of them even though he normally is very sad when he's away from us. They had treats to offer him and played with him and walked him on a regular basis. 10/10 on everything. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who needs a sitter.”
“Anne was a wonderful caretaker of our Bindi girl. Bindi is not an easy dog and Anne put our mind at ease since she was so attentive, caring, and loving of our dog Bindi. She grew up with pitbulls so we were at ease. Bindi got plenty of walks and was so tuckered out by the end of their time together. Thank you so much Anne. Bindi’s looking forward to seeing you again!”
“We also appreciated Adam’s communication and flexibility, as well as his comfort with our sometimes nervous yet larger dog. He updated us and was very thorough and Greta was a happy and comfortable pup at pickup. Highly recommended!”
“Ling and her daughter Alice were so sweet and so quick to communicate with us! They sent us lots of photos and videos and we knew our little guy was in great hands! We will definitely be visiting Ling again soon!”
“So grateful to Megan for her amazing communication, accommodating my needs with drop off/pick up and of course, best of all, the amazing love and care that Gemma received!”
“Catherine was absolutely wonderful. This was our first time boarding Hiro, and she was so great through the whole process. We would 100% book again with her in the future.”
“Emily was great! Drop off was easy and quick. Our sweet Koda was very happy when we picked her up and Emily was very flexible with timing. We definitely recommend her to watch your furry friends 😊”
“Jennifer and Ken took great care of Millie! They were also able to extend her stay when our flights got canceled, which was a huge relief knowing she’s in good hands while we figure out our way back. Will definitely book again.”
“We are so thankful to Egor for taking such good care of our dogs! He kept us updated with messages and photos, so we didn’t have to worry about how the dogs were doing while we were gone. The dogs came back happy, healthy, and clearly well looked after. Egor made sure their stay at his home was as comfortable and stress free as possible. We truly appreciate his thoughtful approach and care.”
“Emily, Patrick, and Conan took wonderful care of our dog Bella while we were out of town. She was a part of their family for her stay, and I received regular updates (and adorable photos!). I would highly recommend trusting this family with your dog. I will be happy to book with them for future trips.”
“Eric and his family were the best! Regular photos and updates, and super flexible with pick up and drop off. Would never hesitate to have eric sit Mickey again.”

Iris and Louis are wonderful and we couldn’t recommend them enough! They took such good care of our dog, Rufus while we were away. Iris sent me regular updates and pictures everyday - from the walks, play times, hiking,.. it felt like we sent Rufus on vacation and he was having the best time with them which made us feel so much better and at ease knowing he was getting all the love and care from Iris and Louis.
It's comforting to know that your pup is in good hands with Dilip. When you can go out of town and not once have to think about whether things are going to be OK, that's a sign of a good caretaker. I've boarded with Dilip multiple times and am glad that there are people like him to open up their homes and provide such selfless service to the care of animals. Thanks, Dilip!
Icy had so much fun with Kelly and she took such good care of her, even taking her for runs for her high energy needs. Kelly's backyard is very spacious and she got a lot of time outside. Kelly was super communicative and incredibly responsible. Thank you so much Kelly!
Valerie and Toby took great care of Koda! They asked a lot of questions about how to take care of him, sent us many cute photos, and treated him very well. They were also very flexible and understanding. Koda came back happy and tired out in a good way. We'd be very happy to leave Koda in their care again!
Jackson was awesome and took great care of my two dogs! Very sensitive to make sure they had a positive first meeting with two other pups he was watching and they all became fast friends. I'd also like to call out Jackson's excellent communication - so great to get lots of pictures and hear about their days. Finally, when my plane was delayed leading to a delayed pickup, Jackson went out of his way to smooth things over - wonderful service; thanks so much!!
