My dog is eccentric and has his little quirks. Arthur was welcoming and inquisitive; it’s obvious he deeply cares for animals. My dog Wolfgang came home relaxed and peaceful, which tells me the environment was calm and nurturing. Excellent communication-an ideal experience. Thank you, Arthur!

Edward is the best sitter that I have ever had on Rover. I had a nightmare experience with another Rover sitter in the past and my vacation was full of worries. This is my second experience with Edward taking care of my Prince and immediately my dog ran to him and didn’t show any signs of distress. It felt like I was leaving him with a family member. Dogs can sense good people and you definitely will not regret it if your fur baby gets to be in Edward’s home. Thank you for sharing pictures and allowing me to feel comfortable being away from my baby. I definitely appreciate everything and hopefully you’ll be able to always be my Prince’s bro when I need to leave him behind. Blessings to you Edward!

We were very happy with Kelly as our dog sitter while we were out of town for a little over a week. She took wonderful care of our high energy dog and her home even provided a sunny front window seat for our dog to hang out in and look out the window. She was a great communicator and kept us updated with photos. If we will be travelling in the future, we will definitely contact Kelly for dog sitting.

Jess and Max were so great with our dog, Molly. They immediately had her at ease, providing her excellent care and affection! I also want to say that they were great with providing me with lots of updates and pictures of how they were caring for Molly. I’m so relieved knowing that they are available and I would highly recommend booking with them if you are wanting dedicated, reliable, attentive caregivers for your pet! Thanks again, Jess and Max!

My wife and I left our pup Prime with Damaris for 10 nights and we felt very comfortable that Prime was in good hands. Damaris would message us regularly with pics and updates and would always respond quickly to our messages. She treated Prime as if he was one her pups and we were very happy with our experience.

Roxy was an amazing sitter! I felt pretty anxious leaving Frankie with someone new but she really was so great with how informed she kept me and sending me pictures everyday. Everyday they went on a little adventure I was worried Frank wouldn’t want to come home. Honestly, I think he’s bored now. Her home is outfitted so the dogs are able to roam free and she truly does seem to care for each dog. Never booking with anyone else! Thanks Roxy!

We're immensely grateful for the exceptional care our 10-month-old calico received from Martin. It was Simone’s first time with a sitter, and the experience couldn't have been smoother! Martin showered our furry friend with love and attention, and the regular photo updates and texts provided us with peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend Martin to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care services!
