“Sarah and her family took great care of Goose while we were gone for a quick overnight! Goose got lots of walks around the neighborhood and played well with their kids, both in the yard and outside. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again in the future!”

“I highly recommend Laura! Her easy-going & friendly demeanor was evident from our first meeting, making my decision to leave Rupert with her for a long weekend a no brainer. I really appreciated the updates & photos she shared throughout Rupert's stay with her. It was apparent when I picked him up, that he had enjoyed his time with Laura & her pup, Diesel. I will absolutely book with Laura again!”

“Angela was great, our Penny had a lovely time and came home tired and happy. Angela was great with communication and pictures and very flexible about pick up and drop off. I would definitely bring our Penny back.”

“Daniel is so good with our incredibly strong, high energy dog. He takes such tender care of her, and gives her tons of exercise. We will always go with him as long as he is free!”

“Rhonda was great! We booked her to watch our recently adopted dog during a family vacation. We loved getting day updates on our dog and pictures/videos. We knew Ellie was getting lots of love and never worried about her care. Very knowledgeable about dogs and you could really tell she just loves being around them.”


“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”


“Josephine & Charlie had a great stay at MJ's while mom & dad went on a Harley trip. I got daily pics & texts. I would recommend MJ any time & certainly use him again.”

“Kim has been so flexible and available for us. We've had to use her at the last minute a few times, plus we have 2 dogs, and she has accommodated the requests graciously. I love that she sends updates and pictures or videos when they are in her care. They get the love and attention and exercise they need when with Kim.”

“Gabriel was great, my poppy had a great time with him and his puppy Mel. Lots of playing and wrestling, and Gabriel was great about sending pictures/updates all weekend. 5 Stars!”

“Lisa was great as always! She made my dog feel comfortable and kept me informed of how she was doing. My dog seemed very happy and I appreciate everything Lisa did! Definitely recommend. 😊”

“Jes was excellent all around. She took great care of our Great Dane and provided regular updates throughout her stay. You can tell she’s a veteran at dog sitting. I highly recommend her to anyone.”

“This was Akuma’s second time with a sitter and I could tell from the pictures that he was very comfortable with Yolanda. She gave him lots of attention (which he needs) and outdoor time. She treated him like family.”

“Megan and Richard were so great. So flexible when our plans changed and took great care of Dom. They sent the cutest photos and videos of our little man and we felt great knowing he was in loving hands. They read all of the care instructions and made sure Dom felt safe. We will be back next time we’re in Milwaukee!”

“I knew Rupert would be in excellent care from the moment we met Rebecca & her family prior to his stay. They are very friendly, easy-going people who clearly enjoy welcoming new dogs into their home. Rupert is very social & has a lot of energy. It was perfect that they have dogs of their own & a large fenced-in yard, giving Rupert plenty of room & freedom to run & play with his new friends. I appreciated the daily check-ins, complete with pictures & videos & short reports about how Rupert was doing. I will definitely be booking again in the future.”

“Ashlee was very communicate and sweet during Frankie’s stay with her! She was flexible and followed all of our requests. She sent updates with photos each night. Thanks Ashlee!”

Rufus King dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lucy had a great time at Jessica’s, as always! Jessica took the dogs on a nature walk! One of Lucy’s favorite things. It was great to see photos of the action while I was away. Jessica does such a great job of sharing pics and videos. And Bob is such a perfect buddy to have around 24/7! Always wanting to play and completely friendly.

Esther and her family did such a good job taking care of Soap. They’re very good with dog. They even treated Soap noticing that he had worms. They sent me pics and videos of my boy while in their care. Very nice Ppl and I would definitely recommend them to anyone and If I go on another trip these are the kind of Ppl I’d want to care for my furry little friend. Thanks again…

Lisa was amazing with our dog Winston. She made it easy for us to leave and feel at ease on our vacation. She is extremely kind and it was obvious to us she worked very hard to make sure Winston was happy and comfortable in her home. Communication was great and we appreciated the updates and the photos. We already have another stay with Lisa on the books.

Hattie was great with our dog, Brody for an overnight stay! She really took the time during the meet and greet to ask a ton of questions and get to know Brody before taking him! She also sent us tons of pictures and updates throughout his day! Would absolutely recommend!
