“I felt very secure with Linda taking care of my dog over the weekend. My dog immediately took to her and was happy and affectionate towards her when he returned also. I know he got a lot of snuggle time which he needed.”


“My 2 little ones stayed with Julie and Brian and they were great! Lots of pictures and they were very welcoming and responsive. I will definitely reach out to them again.”


“Finley had a great time with Francesca. She kept me posted on how Finn was doing and I found her to be a bright thoughtful young woman. I would definitely use her again. I am sure Finn would agree.”


“This was our first time leaving our 85 lb Rottweiler mix, Sheba, since adopting her from the rescue about a year ago—and after meeting Dawn, we felt completely at ease. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Dawn would treat Sheba like one of her own. She has a beautiful home with a warm, welcoming family and a spacious, fenced-in yard filled with toys to keep Sheba active and entertained. What really stood out was Dawn’s genuine care and attentiveness. When Sheba woke up at 2 a.m. whining, Dawn not only took her outside but even spent the rest of the night on the couch to comfort her. It’s rare to find someone who goes above and beyond like that. We’re so grateful to have found Dawn and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible sitter for their pet.”


“Perfect fit for my family’s need. Bill is retired and very caring for others. He follows your routine and is flexible. If you don’t have the answer, he does. I appreciate his willingness to work patiently alongside fur parents and the fir babies. His service is ideal for any sitting service. He provided me updated on Beau and was willing to communicate with my emergency contact since I was out of the country. I was relieved to know that Beau was left in good hands. I will definitely be rebooking!”



“Lindsey was amazing! Nero was given the exact attention, care, and freedom that we provide him at home. Plus he had a nice, safe, fenced-in yard to spend time in (we live in an apartment). Lindsey provided a constant stream of detailed updates that we always appreciate out of a sitter. She sent tons of pictures. And her dog(s) at the home before Nero arrived gave him zero problems and allowed him to do his thing…which is basically lounge and do nothing…I hope Lindsey is available in the future every time my girlfriend and I are away!”


“Kaitlyn is a wonderful sitter for my dog, Barney. He stayed with her at her home for 5 days and when I went to pick him up he was a very happy pup! She sent pictures and messages daily, and he always looked like he was having a great time. I honestly think his time at Kaitlyn’s felt like a vacation for him which makes me feel better leaving him to go on a vacation of my own. I would absolutely recommend Kaitlyn and have even already booked another stay for Barney with her!”


“Brittany and Stephen are wonderful people! They love your Family as their own. They have a beautiful home with a fenced in yard and my dogs love being with them. 11/10 would VERY HIGHLY recommend! 🌴🛬🌺🛫🌴”



“We enjoyed our vacation that much more knowing that Copper was well taken care of. Copper loved sunning in Beverly's large yard. Thanks for the daily photo updates and taking such good care of him!”


“Susan was great with my girls. They were happy and healthy after a week at her home. Susan sent pictures and updates to let us know that they were good. Thank you Susan and we will be leaving the girls with you again.”


“Longest we've ever left our pup but we knew we had nothing to worry about as Bodhi was in great hands with Leigh ! This is our 3rd time booking with Leigh and she has been awesome every time! Our dog had a great time and Leigh was great with providing updates!”


“Chanel was in such good hands! I would 200% have Tiffany watch her again. She gave so many updates and was very flexible when our flight was delayed. She’s definitely a gem!”


“Joshua was fantastic with our two fur babies! He was very responsive and accommodating to our last minute booking! We received pictures and updates throughout the stay as well. Highly recommend booking with him!”


“Laurie was the best dog sitter I could’ve asked for! Kept me updated daily and Bella seemed to enjoy hers and Coopers company. Will definitely use her again in the future!”


“Nicole took great care of my little Honey girl. She sent daily pictures and when I picked Honey up, it was quite evident that Honey had been well cared for and not stressed out by being left there. If your pup needs a chill place to stay where they will get lots of attention, Nicole is the best!”


“Lauren and Austin were absolutely amazing! They are true dog lovers who went above and beyond to make Kaia feel like part of their family. Their communication was excellent, keeping me updated with pictures and messages so I always knew how Kaia was doing. I could tell she was happy, loved, and well-cared for throughout her stay. I can’t recommend them enough and would trust them with Kaia again in a heartbeat!”


“Taytumn is so amazing! She is super understanding and flexible when it comes to communication and timing. She sent me multiple updates throughout Penelope’s stay with her. She took my Penelope on multiple walks and definitely made her have a good time during her stay. If you need someone to care for your furry friend, definitely choose Taytumn (:”


“Tracy was amazing with Riggs and I felt so comfortable being away for work knowing that my boy was being well taken care of. She thoroughly reviewed all the notes I left her.”

Joshua was amazing - he’s communicative and passionate about what he does! This is my third booking on Rover and now that the puppy blues are over, separation anxiety was setting in😭. But Ein was in great hands! He had plenty of space to play and be comfortable. I’d definitely book again!

Julie & Brian were absolutely wonderful! They sent me multiple daily photo updates, and from the looks of it, Stitch was having the best time ever. He got tons of snuggles, made a new lounge buddy in their sweet dog Horatio, and I’m sure he had a blast exploring their amazing backyard — so many smells, so little time! 🐾 I could tell he felt right at home. I would highly, highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable pet sitters!

Thanks to Lindsey and her family, my dog Jack had a wonderful stay away from home. Their backyard was beautiful and spacious and photos of Jack enjoying himself were delivered daily. It’s so important to me to feel comfortable and confident that Jack is well cared for while I’m away. Lindsey and family provided that peace of mind for me. Thank you!

This was our first time using a dog sitter for our 8 year old mix and I was a little nervous how he would respond to being left but everything went smoothly. Amanda sent pictures throughout and was very responsive. We will definitely be using her again she was wonderful.

We feel so lucky to have had Nicole care for Opie again—she truly goes above and beyond every time. It's such a comfort knowing he's in the care of someone so thoughtful, loving, and reliable. Her sweet updates kept us connected, and Opie was clearly relaxed and happy when we returned. Her dedication and care are unmatched. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.

Perfect Match!! We absolutely adored this couple!! They took care of our babies like they were their own. We felt comfortable and could enjoy vacation with ease, while getting updates and cute pics along the way!! We could tell our pups were happy at pick up and would choose them every time to take care of our boys!!

As a pet owner, it’s easy to tell when someone watching your pet really cares. And Chelsea was the epitome of that. She gave me so many updates on Tech and you could tell she just treated him like he was her own. Tech got multiple walks, playtime, and lots of snuggles, and he came home happy. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!!!
Nicole took great care of my little Honey girl. She sent daily pictures and when I picked Honey up, it was quite evident that Honey had been well cared for and not stressed out by being left there. If your pup needs a chill place to stay where they will get lots of attention, Nicole is the best!
