“This was our first time using this app and we had an amazing experience with Maureen. She was the perfect caretaker for our Puma. She gave us perfect peace of mind during our trip that Puma was well taken care of.”

“Cheryl was great with my dog. This was our first time using rover so we were a little nervous but once we met Cherly and saw where our dog was going to spend the day/night we were put at ease. Her home is spotless, super clean and well organized and the backyard is perfect for dogs. It is completely fenced in and also pretty big. Her and her husband were very kind, good people. We would definitely use her services again.”

“Robert was the best!!! We will definitely send our Suki there again. He was super helpful and flexible- which was a huge relief because of the massive snow storm that snarled our plans. So glad to have found a reliable sitter for our doggie.”

“Thank you so much for keeping Michaela. The daily photos let me know she was in good hands. Thank you for working with me as I am new to this app. Thank you for providing great service.”

“Sridevi and her husband were great! Took great care of our lab, including providing cooked meal as per his schedule. Very easy communication and timely updates, with lots of pictures and videos that kept us up to date on his whereabouts. I would gladly refer her and use services again as needed.”

“Nicole was absolutely and utterly amazing with my standard poodle, Texas. I left her in Nicole’s care for about 6-days. She took her in and treated her like her own. Nicole made me feel incredibly comfortable and invited me around her home to ensure that Texas and I felt comfortable. I highly recommend her and her tender care for our furry friends.”

“Rhinesca took great care of our guy while we were away. We received updates on his daily walks and he was so happy. We were worried he would not want to come home. In the future we will certainly book another stay.”

“Vinny was the absolute best sitter I could have gotten for my dog Ellie. She was so happy there, and even missed him when we got home. Vinny took great care of her. We will absolutely be using Vinny exclusively for our dog boarding needs in the future, without a doubt.”

“Yesenia took excellent care of my five-year-old French Bulldog, Lewis. I’d give 6 stars if I could. I’m thoroughly satisfied with her service and highly recommend her for any pet care needs you may have.”

“Moonyoung and Sunhyung were great with Ziggy! It usually takes her a couple days to get used to a new environment, and they were patient, sent updates and pictures and provided a caring home. It gave me great peace of mind while away that Ziggy was being well taken care of :)”


“Nina is very caring and took a good care of my little girl who unfortunately had been in diarrhea when I dropped her off. We also scheduled a greet and meet before the booking to make sure it would be a right fit. She sent me pics everyday of my pup and how she interacted with the family, which was so sweet. Thanks Nina!”

“Diana is friendly, caring, responsible and she is a great dog sitter. She sent photos and videos everyday and went above and beyond to take care of my shiba inu. In addition, her dog Wendy was a wonderdul playmate for my shiba. She provided a safe, clean and fun environment for the care of my dog.”

“Karla was wonderful. Great communication, super fast replies, oodles of pictures sent, and just a really great vibe. Ramona clearly had a wonderful time during her stay and she came home clean and happy. We will not hesitate to book again with Karla!”

Ann was amazing with my dog, Mocha, during an overnight stay! She took such great care of her and made me feel completely at ease. Her communication was outstanding — I received updates and knew Mocha was in great hands the whole time. It’s clear Ann truly cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Camila is an amazing dog sitter. She has a friendly personality and her husband is just as awesome. They cared and took care of my American bully of 5 years which he warmed up to them wonderfully. Camila always sent picture updates of my dog, which was great to have a good price of mind. I would definitely recommend her services again!

Meredith did a great job taking care of my senior dog. She has senior dogs herself so she was very understanding. She also gave me good feedback. She communicates very well and responds quickly. She has a nice fenced in yard. My dog got along well with Meredith and her dogs. I think she had such a good time that she didn't want to come home! Thanks Meredith!
