1. Oksana S.

“Oksana was a great sitter for my elder pup. She made her feel right at home and my dog wasn’t even anxious at her house on the 4th of July when the fireworks happened. Oksana was easy to communicate with too. Would highly recommend her dog sitting services.”


2. Lindsey K.
“Hello! I’ve known Lindsey for 15 years and during this time I’ve witnessed her deep care and responsibility of animals. In my close experience I’ve seen Lindsay care for wide range of animals; from young, energetic puppies to ailing older dogs and everything in between. She has always demonstrated a strong responsibility as she handles, cares for and manages animals in a way that shows love but also safety. I’ve had my own dog now for seven years and Lindsey has cared for him both when visiting me and also at times when I’ve visited her. Besides my dog being a big fan of her in general, I have had nothing but the utmost trust for her when leaving my baby in her care. I have also had the responsibility of being a paid animal caretaker and I understand that it takes more than a simple love of animals to take on this role. You must be vigilant, mindful and anticipating everything from a misplaced shoe around the house to a possible incident with another animal. I’ve only ever seen Lindsey embrace this mentality fully and have seen her diffuse difficult situations safely as well as be incredibly responsible for the surrounding environment of any animal in her care. I would gladly offer my fullest recommendation for Lindsey to take on the position of a Rover caretaker. She is exactly the kind of mindful, caring and responsible person to do this work. And I know my dog, Biscuit, would wholeheartedly agree! Please don’t hesitate to reach out for more details or additional questions.”

“Sherry was wonderful! We just moved here and it can be difficult to find good dog care in a new place. We immediately lucked out with Sherry, she is kind, communicative, and has a clear passion and love for animals. Sherry is super active and we were thrilled to see our dog go on adventures with her and knew he was getting enough activity. She provided lots of photos throughout our trip. Added bonus, she gave us tons of helpful recommendations for dog friendly places in the region. We will definitely be working with Sherry again and recommend her services 🐶”

“I was originally concerned about having to board my 4 month old pup. However, as soon as I met Marie at our Meet and Greet prior to his stay, I felt completely confident that this would be a good experience for him. Marie is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors, and he stayed in her home, so I knew he was in good hands. She also has a 4 month old pup of her own that got along great with my boy. It was a perfect match.”
