“My 2 pups had a good stay at Diana’s home. She sent pics and a video of them enjoying being outside in their fenced in backyard. Overall an easy pleasant experience having them stay with her.”


“We were happy with Ron's and his family’s care for our dog, Deedee. We received regular updates, which was helpful during our time away. His kids really liked Deedee and played & walked with her which was really positive experience for us. Overall, Deedee appeared well-looked after.”


“We found Angela and her husband to be excellent sitters. From the initial contact, through a timely meet and greet to a happy stay for Kenya, all went smoothly and comfortably. Angela always responded promptly to any inquiries I had prior to the stay and was super flexible in agreeing to a change in the pick-up time. She sent multiple photos and it was apparent that Kenya was happy and comfortable in her temporary home. We will definitely take Kenya there again.”


“Michelle and Steve are awesome, they took amazing care of our Husky puppy while we were away. He had the absolute best time staying with them and Daisy! We’d love it if he can stay again in the future and we’re so grateful for Michelle’s organization and experienced approach - even with large breeds. Thank you!”


“Mei, Andy and Mango were fabulous! They took care of Grizzly Bear so well! They were very caring and compassionate! They followed all instructions that suited my pet best. Highly Recommend!”



“This was our first time leaving our Golden Retriever with Chris and Stacey. We recently changed sitters because we felt Jersey would do better with a sitter that watches only one dog at a time since she has food and skin allergies. I researched the Rover recommendations and contacted a few different sitters. Stacey and Chris responded promptly and we had a helpful exchange via email prior to scheduling a meet and greet. Again the M&G scheduling was made easy by Stacey and Chris and I took Jersey over to meet them within a week of our first contact. Stacey and Chris live in a home with an enclosed back yard and the inside of their home is set up much like ours, so Jersey was immediately comfortable. Jersey stayed a week and I received several pictures and messages, Jersey looked very happy and well cared for, The most amazing thing was, when we went to pick her up after we got home, Chris was able to successfully put her in a "wait" position and keep her there until we got all the way into the house, She has never been able to contain her excitement that long before. All in all We were very pleased with the care and affection Jersey received while at Stacey and Chris's and we will definitely book them again.”


“I feel so fortunate to have found Annie and Ty! They took wonderful care of my dog Lucy while I was away for three days. I appreciated that they scheduled a meet and greet in advance so we could all make sure Lucy was a good fit for their family. Communication was excellent, and I very much appreciated the frequent updates and photos of Lucy having fun at their home. I absolutely would not hesitate to book with Annie and Ty again.”


“Gelare and Sama are wonderful pet sitters! We could tell through all the pictures and videos that Gelare took very good care of our little pup. From playing catch to tummy rubs, we were sure our pup was getting all the love and attention we were hoping for! Would highly recommend!”


“Nithya is a wonderful dog sitter. She paid attention to our dog and treated him very well. She took him on long walks and made our boy feel as comfortable as he could be. I would definitely recommend Nithya to anyone. We will be using her again in the future. Thank you so much for taking care of our little guy.”


“I can’t thank Michael enough for the wonderful care he gave my two French bulldogs while I was away. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in such loving, reliable hands. Michael went above and beyond—making sure walks, playtime, and snuggles were all part of the routine, and I could tell my pups were so happy and comfortable. I really appreciated the updates and photos too—it made being away so much easier. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and attentive sitter. Thank you again!”


“Hyun was so amazing and sweet to Parker. Our flight got delayed and she had no issue watching Parker longer than expected. She kept us updated frequently and made sure Parker got lots of play time. Will definitely use Hyun again next time we are away.”


“This was a last minute booking and it was the best. I got pictures daily and felt confident that my senior dog was well taken care of from his frequent potty breaks to his daily medication. I will really liked the fact the Marji only takes one dog at a time. I knew my dog had all the attention he needed. We will definitely be back on our next trip.”

When we picked him up, Catherine spent time sharing her observations on how he did. Marina and Catherine are reliable, provided our fur baby love and affection, and most of all gave us peace of mind during our time away. We will definitely book again!”
