“Everything went as planned, pre-trip meet up, pictures with updates each day, my puppy came home happy as can be and now has a few more doggy friends.”
“I can’t thank Alejandro enough for taking such amazing care of my dog, Arch. He was happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed his time. I really appreciated the regular updates and the genuine attention he gave to every detail. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. Thank you again for everything!”
“Donna was fantastic with our Molly. She gave updates and pictures, and definitely took such good care of my girl. I will definitely be using her again for our future travels !”
“I had the absolute best experience with Lindsay K. and can't recommend her enough to anyone who needs pet sitting services! She took care of my two cats for a week while I was in the process of moving, and from the very start (booking on the app) she made everything so easy and completely stress-free. She was incredibly communicative, flexible, and accommodating with scheduling - which I really appreciated while things were a little hectic on my end. She sent me at least three updates a day, complete with photos and little notes about how they were doing, what they were up to, and how they were eating and behaving. It was so reassuring and honestly a huge relief to know they were being so well looked after. One of my cats acts like she owns the place (any place) and the other is pretty shy and takes a while to warm up to new people. Lindsay easily accommodated their individual personality preferences and silly sibling dynamic so that both cats were clearly getting lots of love and attention every day. She was so patient, kind, and gentle with my scaredy cat that he warmed up quickly and was comfortable and happy in her care. It’s not easy to find someone like Lindsay who is not only reliable and professional, but also genuinely thoughtful and caring when it comes to bonding with pets. I felt completely at ease leaving my cats in her care, and was happy to bring home two very content and well-cared-for kitties. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like her own, look no further — she’s the best! 100/10 stars and would 100% book again the next time I need a cat sitter!”
“Bridgette had such a nice stay with Jennifer! We received regular photos and updates on how she was doing—it looked like she had a great time and was well cared for; she immediately crashed out for a long nap when she got home after all her fun with another dog! We wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay again; strong recommend!”
“This was the first time using Gabby and we were very pleased. From the meet & greet we knew our boy would be in good hands and he sure was. Gabby sent updated messages along with photos letting us know that he was doing well. We will definitely be using Gabby again in the future. Thank you Gabby for your total care with our Cooper.”
“Veronique and her husband were excellent. They honored our same day request for a meet and greet so that we could feel comfortable booking quickly. During my trip they proactively sent pictures and videos daily and gave daily updates on my dog’s comfort level and activities. They were wonderful to partner with and I’d happily leave my dog in their care again because they made me rest easy on my time away. 10/10 would recommend.”
About: A lifelong animal lover, I have a deep love and respect for dogs. I am a former vet tech who will shower your dog with love and affection. We can go on walks or play in the yard; whatever is preferred. Drop in visits, feeding, walking and playtime can be provided. I will text you pictures of your dog so can be assured they are safe and happy. I will care for your dog as if it were my own and provide only the best. I'm a stay at home mom, so I am very flexible and almost always available. I welcome last minute bookings as well. I can't think of a better way to spend my day than caring for your pet!
“I love the way that Catherine sent me photos of Honey during the day having fun with her new friends. Honey came home exhausted, so she must’ve had a blast. Thank you so much Catherine for taking such good care of our lil pup.”
“AleV was absolutely INCREDIBLE! This was our first time leaving Keegan and she made it as easy as possible. Regular pics, videos and update. She cared for him as if he was her own. We are so thankful to have found her. CANNOT recommend higher!”
“My dog's recent stay with Cynthia A. was a very positive experience. We had great communication and the facility is set up nicely for dogs. As a bonus, Cynthia has extensive experience with dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her.”
About: I have taken care of pets all my life from dogs to cats to bunnies to snakes and bearded dragons. Myself and my husband Steve would work together in caring for your fur babies. I work as a nurse and I work mostly weekends and my husband is home all weekend. We used to foster puppies for various shelters but decided to take a break for the summer and are looking to make your dogs feel at home. We can only take in dog friendly and kid friendly dogs as we also have 2 dogs and a 3 year old. We have a fenced in yard and go on frequent walks and would love for our dog Remy to have another friend to play with! I work mostly weekends and my husband is home all weekend so your fur babies won’t be alone. We also have 2 children that love to help with the dogs. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs. My one dog, Remy, is high energy and loves to play. My other dog, Shiba, is old and just sleeps all day so Remy would love to have a playmate. We do not crate our dogs but can crate yours if that’s what your dog is used to.
“I had a great experience boarding my dog with Malissa I found on Rover. They showed a lot of love for my dog, sent daily photos, and have a safe, fenced backyard for playtime. Highly recommend them for anyone needing a caring place for their pet.”
About: In this past year I’ve been caring for a friends 3 legged dog. She needs extra loving, patience and care that I’m fully able to provide to her and others. My weekends are always open. I’m able to accept last minute requests as well. I’ll work around your schedule. Please reach out to me with any questions! I don’t have any pets, so I’m able to give yours my full attention. I do have a teenager that might come along for a walk, just a heads up.
“Our 1 year old dog Theo had such a great time at Maria’s! Her house is beautiful and clean. She has her own dog, an Australian shepherd, who was a great playmate for Theo. She sent photos and pupdates daily. We can’t wait to use her again!”
“The bestest!!!”
“Patrick, Karyn, and Levi were absolutely wonderful hosts for our small dog. They took her on daily walks, sent us updates with photos, and treated her like she was their own baby. Karyn gives attention to each detail and I did not worry a single moment. I think our pup may have had a better vacation than we did and she can’t wait to go back. Thanks again!”
“Hayley is an amazing sitter. The few days she watched the boys, she kept us updated with photos and videos and they were very happy, I highly recommend her and would definitely hire her again. Thank you Hayley!!”
“John was great with Tessa - he was very easy going about scheduling a meet and greet ahead of our scheduled time away and then accomodating all that our needy GSD puppy required while she was staying with him. He sent daily photos/videos and updates which helped reassure us that she was being well cared for and having a great time. I would highly recommend him.”
“After reading the reviews, I knew I picked the best Person for sky to stay with, but I was still nervous because I’ve never left her for the amount of days I had to. Natasha is the best and Skye had a great time from the pictures and videos sent me of her while I was gone. She showed Skye so much love I could tell when we were leaving. I will be using Natasha in the future. Thank you so much, I wish you had a daycare”
