“Isabel is so caring and kind. She constantly sends updates and pictures. My dog has separation anxiety and does so well when visiting with her. I highly recommend her!!”

“Zachary, his lovely daughter, and pup were wonderful to our boy Tau. Zachary kept us up on their adventures/activities, and sent us some cute pictures…one was especially sweet/funny because the first night Tau was relaxing on their couch, lol. I texted Zachary it was like Tau was on a Dad weekend lol. Thank you, Zachary!!”

“Charlie spent two weeks with Lisa and was so comfortable and well taken care of. We were able to fully log offline and relax knowing he was in good hands! Multiple daily updates with photos and occasional videos. Charlie is a senior dog with separation anxiety so we were very worried about leaving him for so long and finding a sitter who would accommodate his joint problems and medication needs. Lisa was great about his routine and attentive to our requests!”

“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Anely took great care of our 10 yr old cattle dog mix Pepper! When I picked him up he was relaxed and not overly rambunctious. It seems like he felt safe and was exercised and mentally stimulated plenty. Anely’s photos and reports were reassuring as Pepper isn’t always the easiest dog to just leave with anyone. Anely is very careful and considerate with her charges.”

“Doris is an excellent dog sitter. She is very friendly, responsive to information requests, and considerate to pets. Yoshi had a very good time with her and her dog, Spooky.”


“It was my first time using rover and I was very concerned before I met Karen, she did such a amazing job, I couldn’t be happier, everything was perfect, she also helped me out with the rover website, Hachi loved her and I was very impressed by her knowledge about dogs, thank you so much, on my next travel you will be the first person I’ll contact !!”

“First time leaving Gus for a long time. Courtney kept me at ease with her great communication and sharing photos! Her dog Lucy and Gus hit it off right away. I’ve already rebooked for another upcoming trip! Recommend 100/10”

“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”

“Gilbert was INCREDIBLE. A wonderful caregiver who was gracious enough to let our pup stay and care for his unexpected paw injury. 10000/10. And so many pup-dates!!! The best.”

“We are so happy we booked with Ty! Her and her family were so good to our dog Scout and she provided the best updates and pictures. We would definitely book with Ty again ☺️”

“Karen is very sweet and caring. She loves pups and treats them as their own. Our dog stayed with her while we were on vacation for a week and we were not worried at all. Her dog is gentile and very playful which our dog loved. They played together a lot and it was sad to take her away from him when we got home. We will definitely be rebooking!”

“My dog Mya had a wonderful weekend at Matthew’s! He was so accommodating and understanding of her anxieties, which is very appreciated! Communication was great, I loved getting pictures and updates of her all weekend! Would definitely recommend, and would book again!”

“I left my 5 month old pup with Boa while on a vacation out of the country. I can highly attest that Max received superior care and extensive love! In addition to the great care, Boa consistently sent updates along with pictures of Max during his stay. My plans are to continue to use Boa when I travel. Five stars!”

“I had a wonderful experience boarding my goldendoodle with Shawn! From the very beginning, she was incredibly cooperative and informative, which made me feel comfortable leaving my pup in her care. She took the time to answer all my questions and provided updates while I was away, which I really appreciated. Her huge fenced yard is perfect for dogs to run around and play safely, and I could tell my dog absolutely loved the space. Shawn clearly cares deeply for the pets she looks after, and it shows in the way she manages everything so thoughtfully. I highly recommend Shawn to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Alyssa was the first time I ever hired a pet sitter 😊. I was super impressed!! Willow is a rescue we only had about a month, so we were concerned about having her get nervous and anxious in a new environment and away from us. Alyssa kept us updated on my Willow's stay - pictures and prose. We were so relieved to see Willow getting along so well with Alyssa. Willow came back content, and we were so happy to have found Alyssa!! Your pets will be so lucky to have Alyssa care for them; do not hesitate in the least. You will see for yourself what a loving and codependent care she gives them !”

“Keasha took great care of our dog Arnie. We got daily updates during his stay, and I did not have to worry about him while we were away. We would definitely be happy to have Arnie stay with Keasha again in the future!”

“Eve was great! She and her family clearly care about the pets they sit. I received photos and updates daily about how Coco was doing and it was obvious she felt welcome and at home. Eve was flexible and accommodating about pick-up and drop-off times and made the entire process a breeze. Will definitely trust her with Coco again. Thanks Eve!”

This was our first time boarding Tank and as many first timers, we were worried as to how this would work out. We met Courtney for a meet and greet a week prior. It was obvious she is a dog lover, and we were comfortable leaving Tank for the week. Any concern we had, was with Tank and not with Courtney. As it turns out Tank’s vacation went very well. Courtney sent us daily pictures and comments, which put us at ease and we were very thankful for. Courtney has her own pup and both dogs got along well. She has a nice backyard for the dogs to play and Tank got plenty of walks. We appreciated coordinate being so kind and caring with Tank. This was a very positive experience for us and we will not hesitate to use Courtney again when we are away.

Julia is amazing! She was super communicative, sending pup photos and info throughout her time with Charlie. He clearly had a great time, and even ran back toward her apt after we left—found a new best friend! Julia was extremely understanding when our trip was unexpectedly prolonged, and we felt at ease knowing he was in good hands until we could return. Appreciate the flexibility. Highly recommend Julia!!

Andrea did a phenomenal job with Bernie. We appreciated her flexibility with scheduling, drop off and pickup. But most importantly, we were impressed with the high level of care and attention she gave our pup. Great communication. Regular photos, and one VERY happy dog at pickup. If you have a chance to book this amazing sitter, put her at the top of your list!

Molly was amazing! It was our first time leaving our dog with someone, and she took wonderful care of him. Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated with messages and videos every few hours, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our pup felt comfortable and bonded with her quickly. We’ll definitely be reaching out to Molly again in the future. Highly recommend her!

I can’t say enough about how amazing Susan is. I needed to find a new sitter after my person of 5 years retired. After reading Susan’s reviews, my husband and I took our dog for a meet and greet. Within 5 minutes of talking to her we knew this was our person. Susana sent us daily updates and pictures. This was so comforting for us we were overseas and missing our dog. We are already talking about our next family vacation and before I book the flights, I will be booking Susan.
