Garrett did a great job taking care of our dog, Winston, while we were away. Winston is older and has a lot of anxiety, so he can definitely require some extra patience and attention, and Garrett handled everything really well. He was also a great communicator throughout the stay, kept us updated, and made the whole experience easy and stress free. We came home to a happy, well cared for dog and really appreciated the help. Would definitely recommend Garrett to anyone looking for a dependable dog sitter.

Kayla is nothing short of fantastic! From the first communication, to the introduction meeting, to the stay, and everything in between, she was nothing but kind and respectful. My baby boy, Vegas, felt right at home to moment he met Kayla and Bentley. Her home was cleaned and organized. Throughout my time away, she sent me updates and photos, and even took my baby boy to see Santa (which absolutely made my day)! This was his first stay with someone other than family, and I can say that Kayla will be our dog sitter for all future trips. If you are looking for a sitter, I would highly recommend Kayla and Bentley!

Austin and Morgan were great. Extremely organized during our meet and greet. I felt super comfortable leaving my fur children with them. They communicated often with updates during the stay. Super friendly and dog loving. I will use their services again for sure and if your looking for someone to take care of your fur children like you would Austin and Morgan would fit that requirement perfectly.

I can't say enough good things about Luis! He took amazing care of my dog while I was away. My pup usually gets a little anxious when I'm gone, but with Luis, he was calm and happy the whole time. Luis sent regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. He truly goes above and beyond to ensure that pets are comfortable and well taken care of. I highly recommend Luis to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter!

Both Bicky and her partner were so welcoming and energetic, they maintained their place so clean and have a huge fenced backyard, which is really good for dogs to run and play fetch. They treated Simba as their own dog. They took care of him really well, we received updates with photos during his stay. Simba came back home so happy, doesn’t seem like he missed us or home at all.

10/10 recommend Chase as a dog sitter! Chase provided daily updates on Sadie throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind. He also arranged a meet-and-greet beforehand so Sadie could get comfortable in the new environment prior to the stay. He followed all instructions carefully and communicated any updates, additions, or modifications that came up during her stay. Overall, it was a great experience with excellent service. I highly recommend Chase and will definitely be using him again!

Adriann was SO communicative, relaxed, attentive, and easy to talk to. My Dalmatian is very attached and her temperament can sometimes be snappy, so I was nervous a couple of days before dropping her off. Adriann put me at easy IMMEDIATELY, and took her on an adventure walk right after picking her up. She handled all Koa’s sassy moments with grace, expertise, and patience. And she is FAST asleep after a couple of happy days there! Would easily and happily book again :-)

My family and I were preparing to head out of town for my birthday when we realized, in the middle of all the planning, that we had forgotten to schedule a sitter for Oakley. Like any dog mom would, I immediately went to Rover and was pleasantly surprised to see several sitters available. I reached out to a few profiles, and Rebecca D. responded right away, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Rebecca was incredibly kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. We quickly coordinated a plan for dropping Oakley off, and the process was seamless. When we arrived, Rebecca was already outside waiting for us and gave clear instructions on where to park. She even invited us inside, which we politely declined, but I thought it was such a thoughtful gesture. Prior to our arrival, she also shared information about her dog’s temperament, which I really appreciated. Throughout the weekend, Rebecca kept us updated with photos and videos of Oakley, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. When we picked him up, he was excited to see us, but it was also obvious that he had a wonderful time with her. Oakley came home happy, and we are so thankful for the care Rebecca provided. I would absolutely recommend booking with her!
