âPaige and Matthew were so so amazing to my boyfriend and i as well as our ollie! i seriously canât say enough great things about them, we set up a meet and great which made me (a first time rover mom) feel so much better about seeing how he would interact there. they were SO flexible with pickup and drop off times as my boyfriend is a farmer and gets out of work at different times and whatnot. Paige was super responsive to my messages and sent pictures and videos often to keep me happy! ollie got training while he stayed with them and was less mouthy (puppy teething)! again i cannot say enough good things about them, they loved ollie like he was their own. we will most definitely be booking with them again to take care of our puppy! best rover sitters out there.â

âCaroline was awesome! She sent updates throughout the visit and sent cute pictures of Rondo! She took him for a walk and played with him throughout the day. He came home a tired and happy puppy :) Iâve already booked rondos next stay with Caroline.â

âJenny was awesome with Buddy. She Provided a nice calm place for my very senior dog. I was impressed by the care and concern she showed for his arthritis and special needs. I am super thankful for her flexibility in accommodating Buddy for my travels. Highly recommend.â

About: I raised my own dog from puppy hood. He was 4 mos old when I got him and now he's 10 yrs old. I've always grown up with multiple dogs and cats. I can take care of senior dogs, puppies, big, small, multiple dogs, or solo style. I used to have a bearded dragon. I have rodent experience too(farrets, bunnies, etc). In the last ten years i have gotten more comfortable with chickens and will probably get some more chicks this spring đź I love being helpful, being around animals, and the out doors! Pet care is something that has always been part of my daily life. It makes me have more of a structure and purpose to my days. If im eating or use the bathroom then I know that pets and animals must need to as well, so my own needs also always remind me to meet the pets needs and care. I will try to keep them on a consistent schedule that the owner always does and do everything I can as close to the owner does to make them comfortable and cared for and less stressed while their owner is away. Give them as much attention as possible or space if they prefer to be left.
âIt was a last minute booking for like three hours in the evening, and she was happy to watch my dog! She sent photos, she took good care of my disabled dog.. so glad I found her :) Will book again if I need toâ

âShe takes such great care of Kora, and I love how she keeps me updated throughout the day with photos! I know Kora is in good hands when she goes there for the day.â

âThis was the first time using someone to watch my 5 mo old puppy. So glad to have found Linda! Grace was well taken care of and came home exhausted after a day of play.â

About: Iâve owned dogs all my life. I believe they are more than pets, they are trusted friends. I will treat your dog as if he/she were my own. I work primarily from home. Iâm away only 10-15 hours per week. Iâm very flexible and willing to work with you for the love and benefit of your pet. I live in my new built home. There is a lot of area outside where we can walk, but Iâll never leave a dog unattended. I have my kids (aged 16 & 18) part time. They may be around. My kids love dogs.
About: Hello fellow animal lover! Iâm Bec, the matriarch of a family of 6 (5 humans 1 dog). As fun loving people, we look forward to having furry visitors to play with and care for. I work from home and go for walks often. The house is quiet during the day while the kiddos are in school, and more lively in the afternoon once everyone else is home! I like to go on adventures with all sorts (mostly mammals) but especially my dog Parker. Sheâs the best pal. To know her is to love her, but I might be able to say that about all dogs! Sheâs always waiting for the next furry friend to come over and play. I am a very go-with-the-flow type of person! My schedule is flexible, and my partner is a stay at home parent. Together we have time and attention to give to your beloved little pets! I have a fenced in yard for plenty of fun and play. I go for walks in my neighborhood. My home is a clean and clutter free environment that is puppy proofed!
âJoshua did a great job with our 4 month old puppy, Tuuli. I was a little nervous leaving her (first time puppy parent) and his updates with photos throughout the day put me at ease. We would happily book him again for daycare. His service is much more personalized and offers a wider variety of hours that other franchises just donât offer, perfect for us when we have busy evenings and canât leave our pup home alone (yet!).â

âMy girl Kona absolutely loved Holly! Holly gave her all sorts of opportunities to play and explore, and gave Kona lots of attention. I could tell that she gave Kona the same care and attention that I would. I highly recommend letting your puppies stay with Holly!â

âSusan has been a fabulous fit for our pups and our needs. She is a true animal lover, has a big fenced back yard where the dogs can frequently run and play, and she treats each dog like her own. Having my pups stay with Susan is like having them experience a trip to a âgrandmaâsâ house, of sorts. They definitely get loved on!â

âAmy did a great job with my June Bug and I love the pictures and wrap up that I got. This was our first time working with Amy and I think we found our new caregiver for June Bug. I highly recommend and we will book with her again. Also, her little Mia is the sweetest girl â¤ď¸.â

âGreat experience for all. Kristopher and his family were warm and welcoming. They have a fabulous dog of their own to play with. Lots of fun in their great room while meeting. Their farm has horses, goats, chickens so you know they love animals. 5 1/2 stars!â

âLibby is the best! She does such a great job with Bo and he loves going to see her. She gives regular updates, takes him to the park and on hikes, and is very attentive and responsive. Highly recommend!â

âMarina was super flexible with us and our schedule, which we really appreciated! She also was very patient and understanding with my anxious dog. She provided a great, comfortable environment for me and we will definitely use her again in the future!â
