I booked again after luckily stumbling upon Krisanne (an acquaintance from when I was younger). I knew our dog Moose was in good hands as soon as we dropped him off. They sent me picture and updates every day of him playing and out on walks. I felt totally at ease this weekend and was completely confident that he was taken care of and in good hands. Moose came home happy and tired from a fun weekend playing. We will be back!”

“We love Carol & Michael! This was our second time re-booking with them & it went very well .Our little dog was happy to get to their front door & came home just the same. No stress dropping or picking up our dog, they are always around which I appreciate very much because our old doggie doesn't like to be alone for long. She is an elderly dog & takes meds twice a day which wasn't a problem for Carol & Michael. They are loving & responsible and easy to communicate with. So glad to have found them & will continue to use their services . they are the BEST!!!”
“Jenny was absolutely FANTASTIC!! We didn’t have time to meet her prior to dropping off our dogs, but as soon as we arrived, we felt very comfortable leaving our dogs with her. Our two dogs warmed up to her right away as well. Jenny has amazing communication and sent us pictures of our dogs every day. She was so great to work with our crazy schedule. Our dogs always looked liked they were being fed, getting to cuddle on the couch, and play fetch! We highly recommend using Jenny’s services. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such great care of our dogs ♥️”

“Brittany is a lifesaver! We were camping in Zion and the AC went out in our camper, so our dog was basically on the verge of heat stroke. I contacted her and within a little over an hour, Buster was safe safely at her air conditioned home less than 30 minutes away 🥰 She also sent us pictures and updates. Definitely recommend Brittany and her family!”
“Our dog had a most wonderful time visiting Samantha’s house. Samantha was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and kept her busy. We highly recommend.”
“Amy was a lifesaver! I needed a dog sitter on very short notice, and she came through without hesitation. She took great care of my puppy, Duke, for four days while my female was in heat, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Her home is beautiful and in a great location, and Duke was clearly comfortable and well cared for. I really appreciated the loving environment she provided. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again—highly recommend!”

Kirsten and her family always take such good care of Enzo! We won't take our dog anywhere but here when we leave town♥️
Tiffany was so great to send extra pictures and videos when my daughter was crying, missing her puppy. She was extra patient with puppy behavior, and made sure to give our dogs plenty of exercise and attention, and they can't home from her house super happy!
This was our first booking with Rover, and Krisanne & Gaston were so gracious, helpful and absolutely the best sitters ever. Our dog Jack was happy at their house, and Krisanne & Gaston kept in touch us with us through Rover text and uploaded photos throughout Jack's stay. I would highly recommend Krisanne & Gaston, and look forward to booking with them again.
Savana and Carter were prompt in their replies and flexible when we needed a last minute dog sitter! So grateful for them and all the attention they gave our pup!
Samantha and family were the perfect fit for our Johanna. She was well loved and updated us often. We will certainly rebook with this wonderful family again!
Kelsey and family loved on our sweet Johanna! She was well cared for and we received regular updates. Pickup and drop off was easy and smooth.

Franz came back so happy! Lisa took excellent care of him, was very communicative, and he clearly loved staying at her place. Highly recommend.
It's never easy leaving your fur babies, but we left our 10yo dog and our 6mo puppy with Rachel for a week, and it sure is nerve-wracking leaving a puppy that is still training. Our dogs had such a good time and were so well cared for! We got pictures every day, and could tell they were happy and healthy. She was incredibly patient with our puppy still training, it was so appreciated! Our dogs also loved playing with her dogs!
Sheila was wonderful! She was attentive and loving to our little dog's needs. We were very pleased and hope to use her services again in the future.
Pamela did a great job with my two dogs, she kept us up to date with pictures, made sure they got exercise and I think she even gave them a bath before we got home (they smelled better than when I dropped them off). My standoffish dog loved her and she even help refine my puppy’s training!
