Joshua was on the ball from inquiry to pick up. Excellent communication and care of our 13yo golden doodle. Their dog is a sweetie and Rosie loved the company. We're already rebooking! Thanks for taking such great care and giving Rosie the best possible experience away from us!

Maxine is outstanding when it comes to caring for your fur baby. She’s kind, compassionate, caring and loving. She kept us informed on our fur baby activities daily along with sending us pictures of our baby to let us know she was in great spirit. I will highly recommend Maxine to anyone that’s looking for a dog sitter to keep your day when you have to travel or just one a daily journey.

I cannot say enough good things about Cece. I am extremely selective about who I trust with my dog, and I rarely leave her with anyone. Jewel stayed with Cece for nearly two weeks, and from day one, she treated her like one of her own. Jewel takes daily medication, follows a strict diet due to food allergies, and she's very nervous around other dogs. Cece took every precaution to keep her safe, made sure she received her medication, and patiently helped her become comfortable in her new environment. Jewel arrived afraid of dogs and left with a group of new friends. One of the things I appreciated most was the constant communication. Cece sent photos and videos every day, which helped ease my worries and allowed me to actually enjoy my vacation knowing Jewel was being so well cared for. My only wish is that Cece lived closer to our home in Indiana because I would take Jewel to her regularly without hesitation. Finding someone who provides this level of care, communication, structure, and genuine love for your dog is incredibly rare. From one very selective and nervous dog mom, I can wholeheartedly recommend Cece. This was a wonderful experience for us and I am so grateful we found her.

Virginia was a WONDERFUL sitter—if I could give more than 5 stars I would! ⭐️ This was my first time using Rover, but won’t be my last! I expressed my anxieties of being away from Bij on a work trip, and she eased them all. I got regular and often updates—she truly treated and loved Bij as if he were her own. And her fur baby is just as precious—Cozy and Bijou became best friends! From letting him sleep in a bigger bed, to sharing all Cozy’s toys, to regular walks and playing all the fetch he could handle—Bijou was on a vacation! Virginia is kind and communicative, and I will happily be booking with her again! ❤️

I was very lucky to find Sofia to watch my puppy Ruby. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Ruby was being taken care of quite well and that they had a lot of fun together. Normally when Ruby is with someone else in a strange environment, she doesn't eat normally, but judging by what was left over, she pretty much ate normally. I will definately ask Sofia to watch Ruby the next time I go on vacation and need a dog sitter.

About: I began dog walking for my neighbors at 8 years old and helped take care of my family’s french bulldog throughout elementary, middle, and high school. Given her high care needs, I have experience in caring for senior dogs and am able to give them medication. I have pets-sat for families with dogs, cats, and bunnies. Growing up I also had a hamster and guinea pigs of my own! I love doing the “Doggy Day Out” at my local shelter where I get to care for a shelter dog for the day and would love to give your furry friend that same experience. I’m currently working a part-time job and am a full time college student. During the school year, I have classes Mon-Thurs in the morning and for the summer I am completely available to care for your pets! I have a fenced in yard and would love to care for your pup! I will take them for a walk and play with them, treating them as if they are my own dogs.

Fist time using Rover, and was not sure about leaving Jack for a long weekend. Joshua and Jenna were great, from initial contact through meet and greet and the actual stay this weekend. Thank you for watching Jack…. He seems to have had a great time at the Blue Merle meetup!! And thank you for the pictures.

Lizzie comes home happy, healthy, and unstressed when she stays with Delaney and Alex. They are gentle and patient with Lizzie, who is a senior dog. I appreciate all the pictures and videos Delaney sends me of Lizzie while I am traveling. Lizzie has stayed with them twice for a total of about 3 weeks and we have had no problems. I would not hesitate to board Lizzie with them again.
