“This was my first time using a dog sitter so I was nervous about it. Her reviews gave me the confidence I needed to go forward with it and boy did I choose an awesome sitter! She sent lots of photos and my dog was so happy to play with other sweet dogs and be in a loving home. He didn't want to go home when i came to get him lol! Will use again and will recommend. Thank you so much Rover.com and Shanique!”
“Emily is a great dogsitter. She always makes sure that he eats well and plays safely with other dogs. I love that I receive updates and videos of my dog, so I know he is OK and having fun! Definitely recommended!”
“Tanisha was absolutely amazing with our puppy! This was our first time ever being away from her, and Tanisha made the entire experience so comforting. She was warm, attentive, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. We got regular updates, and it was easy to see that our pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better first-time experience and would 100% trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Marie was the absolute best! She sent pics of them without me asking. My dogs seemed to have enjoyed their stay. The went on walks, played in her fenced in backyard and she had playful times with them. She also allowed them to be free in her immaculate beautiful home. I will ne booking again! Thank you Marie again for taking care of Bailee and Kodi.”
“Victoria was literally a godsend! I had to go out of town last min and she was willing to help with less than 12 hours notice. She was super sweet and friendly, accommodating and sent pics every day with Benni clearly having the best time. I will absolutely continue to use her when I need a sitter.”
“I give them 100 stars they are the best they’re good with dogs. My dog is great with other dogs. They’re right around the corner from my house. They’re the best I will be coming back and I also asked them if my dog allowed to come back and they told me yes ,Great communication great people”
“Brittany was absolutely awesome! I would definitely book with her again. She was incredibly flexible, especially with my flight being delayed and took great care of my pup. Even with the small hiccup we ran into, she handled everything perfectly. I truly appreciate her professionalism and kindness. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Kira is an amazing pet sitter. I felt 100 percent confident in her ability to care for my babies. She provided daily updates and photos. She made my pets feel at home and calm. Thanks, Kira!”

“Best experience I’ve ever had with pet services. I have a 7 yr old Min Pin and he has a lot of energy. Sharonda Understood my dogs needs and kept him very happy. I had zero issues, everything was perfect. Sharonda was very professional and responsive to any questions or concerns I had. She was a great host and I will be returning. I Highly recommend her services.”
“This was our first time ever using a pet sitter and it was the best experience. Our little Tootsie had the best time with Janet! Janet took care of Tootsie as if she were her own. She sent us updates with lots of photos and videos to keep us updated everyday, and gave us peace of mind that Tootsie was in the best hands. I would absolutely recommend Janet and will for sure book with her again! Thank you again, Janet!”
“Anais H. was amazing . She kept my Yorkie for 5 days and was very flexible when I needed to extend my dogs stay. She’s very attentive and kind . She’s also a groomer and was very accommodating when I added the grooming svcs after drop off. 10/10 , I recommend!”
“Cindy is a great caregiver for fur babies! She was thoughtful and kind toward Baileys needs. She even offered to go buy something for my little picky eater. I highly recommend her and plan to use her in the future! Thanks again Cindy!!”
“Rebecca did an amazing job taking care of our Gordo! She sent pictures and videos multiple times a day and kept us up-to-date on how he was doing. He really got the royal treatment with lots of cuddles and treats. She even bathed him for us before pickup because he played in the mud. We will be going to Rebecca every time we need somebody to watch Gordo!”
“Marilou took such great care of my little Willow. She provided daily pictures and videos and honestly when it was time to pick Willow up, she acted as if she did not want to come home. This is a true testament of how much love and care Marilou provides to her client’s pets. I would definitely recommend her and will bring Willow back when we have to travel again!”
“I would definitely recommend Lilieka to any other family looking for someone to watch and care for your pet, as if they were family. Capone was very anxious when he first arrived, so that had me anxious and uneasy as well LOL but within the first hour of drop off I received pictures from Lilieka assuring me that Capone had calmed down and was attempting to settle in. Throughout the day I received numerous pictures and messages showing me that my fur baby was having a good time as if he was staying with fellow relatives. I loved that Capone was able to interact with the entire family, he truly enjoyed his stay and took well care of him. Both the drop off and pick up went smooth. Lilieka truly deserves these 5 STARS 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟 THANKS AGAIN”
“Sabine took care of my dog, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service. She was attentive, reliable, and truly went above and beyond to ensure my pet was happy and well-cared for. My dog enjoyed their time together, and I appreciated the regular updates and photos. I highly recommend Sabine to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

Shanique was wonderful with Sade. She was very communicative from start to finish, professional, and clearly attentive. She sent regular updates and pictures, which made it easy to see that Sade was comfortable and happy in her care. Sade definitely seemed to like her, and that peace of mind meant everything. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Shanique and would gladly have her watch Sade again.
This is the 10th time I believe that Mary has watched our pups. This trip was almost 2 weeks and they did great. Mary sends pictures and videos so we know how the pups are doing. When we get close to her house the pups start barking with excitement because they know they will be staying with Mary. We appreciate her so much. We never worry when she cares for our pups.
Sharonda was amazing with biscuit. We had a long stay for our first time using a sitter at all and we were very nervous. Sharonda made us feel very comfortable, kept us updated, sent pictures. And biscuit seemed very happy when he got home. We will be booking them again.
The stay went smoothly and I didn’t have any issues with my pet’s care. However, the interaction felt a bit distant. The sitter wasn’t very talkative, and pickup felt rushed — she handed me my pet’s things and quickly closed the door without much conversation. Also, I wasn’t sent any photos during the two-day stay, which I would’ve appreciated for peace of mind. Nothing major, but I personally value more communication and warmth throughout the stay.
