“Jane was terrific! She sent adorable pictures and fun updates every morning and our dog clearly enjoyed his time with her. We will definitely try to book with her again in the future!”


“Super fun! Not only did Montana, but I also had fun with this amazing sitter. The updates made my day! When I got Montana home, she was pooped. She plopped right down full of content. A great experience all the way around! Will certainly use again. While all was fun and games, she is also very good at understanding behaviors and have a thoughtful report to help me better understand my furbaby.”


“Jared was great! Amazing communication, constantly kept me updated on my dog throughout the day with photos and videos. My dog absolutely loved boarding with him and his pups. Would recommend. You can tell he truly cares about animals and will treat yours just like his own.”


“Angel was wonderful! She updated and sent us pics of our little girl daily and her children loved on our fur baby all day long. They took walks and she got along very well with Angel's dog and cats. I will use her again! Thank you!!!”



“This was our first time using any dog sitter from the website, and Karen was great! It was easy to set up plans with her, and I felt that she was responsive to any requests we made for our dog Loki. She made sure that he had plenty of exercise while we were gone, and he was also able to play with other dogs. Overall, it was a pleasure working with Karen, and we felt confident that we left Loki in good hands.”


“Josh took great care of our boy, he went above and beyond, making sure our dog was entertained and well taken care off. I was receiving daily updates with pictures and feedback. Highly recommended. I will use his services in the future for sure Ps. He has a great place for your dog needs, cool basement, pool and fence in yard, also his own dogs are very friendly!”


“I cannot express enough how grateful I am to Leann for taking such wonderful care of my dog, Abi, for an entire month. From the very beginning, Leann stepped in on extremely short notice, accepting our last-minute reservation without hesitation. This was such a relief for us, and from that moment on, Leann exceeded all our expectations. Throughout the entire month, Leann maintained constant communication with us, ensuring that we were always updated on Abi's well-being. She sent us frequent photos and videos, often more than once a day, allowing us to see how happy and comfortable Abi was under her care. It was clear from the start that Abi wasn’t just being taken care of; she was being genuinely loved and cherished. Leann didn’t just meet Abi’s basic needs; she went above and beyond to make sure Abi had plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection. Seeing Abi’s joyful expressions and playful moments in the photos and videos made us feel incredibly reassured, knowing she was in such good hands. Leann's commitment to Abi's happiness and her ability to create a warm, loving environment truly set her apart. Not only did Leann provide exceptional care, but she also brought a sense of peace and security to us during a time when we needed it most. Her professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals shone through in every interaction. We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Abi, and we will absolutely be turning to Leann again in the future. Thank you, Leann, for everything you did for our family. You are truly a gem!”



“This was the first time we left Cookie with anyone but immediate family. Shauna treated her like family. She was well cared for and socialized. We very much appreciated the pictures and updates!”


“This is Milo's first time boarding. He loved his stay with Bill and Haley! He didn't even seem to want to go home when I picked him up. I accidentally didn't give him enough food and asked them to pick up a bag of carrots for him which they gladly agreed to. They sent pictures and updates every day. I will be using them again in the future!”


“Madison took great care of my girl! She sent me daily updates and photos and responded promptly whenever I reached out. She treated her as if she were her own and I would definitely trust her to watch my baby again!”


“Our dog Martin always enjoys himself when he is at Josephine's home. Josephine is very caring and has taken great care of Martin. She takes him to the dog park, which he loves and long walks. When he comes home after visiting Josephine’s house he is so wore out from all the fun that he had, that he has to rest. Josephine is informative, send pictures, and is so easy to communicate with. Josephine will be my first choice for a dog sitter going forward.”


“Lisa Took amazing care of our puppies while we were away for three weeks. We are so grateful to have a safe and fun place for the pups to go while we’re away! Could not recommend more highly.”


“I am very fortunate to have found Laura! Based on her "About" info and all the great reviews, I felt my dog would be well cared for. We had a great first meeting with Laura which solidified my decision to hire her. Drop off was easy because of our first meeting. She had excellent communication! She sent pictures, messages and responded promptly to any messages I initiated. When I picked up my dog, she(my dog)was happy to see me and my husband but not eager to leave. That’s a good sign to me that she felt safe and was happy there! I 100% recommend Laura and hope she's available next time I need her.”


“Michelle was great! She was very accommodating with our drop off and pick up times which was very appreciated. We planned a meet and greet prior to the stay and it was very evident our dog was comfortable there. We'd definitely like to use Michelle again!”



“Chrissy was great with my dog! I'm still new to rover.com and was a little nervous to leave my dog with someone I didn't know. HOWEVER, I felt comfortable with Chrissy from the start and was actually excited that Mr. Miyagi (the dog) got to stay someplace where I felt he'd be really cared for. And "cared for" Chrissy and family did! She sent me photos of him every other day and I got to see how normal life stayed for him while I was gone. Another reason I felt comfortable with Chrissy is that she has the vet tech background. Mr. Miyagi has allergies and can be a little high maintenance. I wanted someone who could recognize his allergies and respond accordingly if needed. Chrissy was great! I give her 4 "dog thumbs" up!”


“We absolutely love nicole! Leaving my dog always causes me so much anxiety but nicole makes sure he’s taken care of and loved at all times. It’s like he’s on his own little vacation! We won’t be using anyone but her. Nicole, thank you so much for taking care of Bennie!”


“Patricia was amazing! She took in our 2.5-year-old golden retriever on very short notice and treated him like her own. He got so much love, attention, and outside time (his favorite!), and we received daily updates with plenty of pictures. It was such a relief knowing he was in great hands, and he came home so happy! I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Patricia to anyone.”


“Our pups had a wonderful time and we got lots of pictures and updates during their stay! Mike was really communicative and the dogs were happy and tired when we picked them up. Would happily have them bunk up here again.”


“Dobby had a great time when he stayed with Kelly! She gave frequent updates and I could tell she genuinely loved having him there, which made me very happy. Would definitely book again!”
