“Very informative of my cat while be considerate with him and consistently giving him lots of attention, room to move around and made him feel at home. Her family and herself have gone beyond expectations for him.”


“Laura was so wonderful to Teagan that when I pulled in to pick her up she almost wanted to go back inside and stay😂 in all seriousness, Teagan looked like she had a great time and I will absolutely try to book with Laura next time we head out of town!”


“Our Yorkie had a wonderful stay at Katya’s Paws Paradise. Katya attentively listened to all the details and special requests regarding our pup’s care, and she followed through on them. We received daily updates and photos during his stay. Katya’s own fur baby is a delightful, intelligent, and welcoming companion to any dog. We are eagerly looking forward to booking our next stay with them. Thank you for creating a home away from home for our fur baby!”


“Kaitlyn and Andrew were wonderful. They sent us pics of Abby every day while we were on vacation. We could tell Abby was loved and enjoyed her time with them. She also got to make friends with their dog Pancake who kept Abby company while we were away. Recommend 100%”


“Emma and Adam were amazing and we are so grateful they were willing to take on our 2 challenging pups for a week. A big huge thank you to their sweet pup Patrick for putting up with our pups. Emma sent pics and updates regularly and kept them on a routine with plenty of walks and exercise. I was super nervous to leave them with someone new for so long but she put my mind at ease and was super supportive. We would not hesitate to have her watch our pups again.”


“Susan and her husband took wonderful care of our two pups on very short notice! Petey and Suzie Q came home exhausted from all the fun and attention and Susan even included some homemade dog biscuits. Would absolutely book Susan again the future!”


“Clarissa is amazing! Great communication and even sent pictures during our time away! My crazy pup came home exhausted! She even taught her how to sleep without being in a crate or in the bed with us and she is doing well not messing in the house when we are resting! I am so grateful! We booked again and will continue to book every trip we can with her and her amazing family!”


“Raiko was a great sitter and did a good job providing photos & videos during my dog's stay. I could tell that she had a great stay. The interaction was very pleasant and Raiko was very responsive. I highly recommend Raiko.”


“It was my first time using this Rover app for my puppy and I have to say Blanca was amazing with my puppy Nori. Definitely will be calling her again . She was very loving towards her and my puppy seemed very happy.”


“This is our first time trusting our baby Stella to a sitter outside family! Hannah was amazing & loved on our dog to the degree that we never worried! She provided updates with pictures & we were just able to relax on our weekend away. Thank you SO much Hannah for taking in Stella! We definitely will be contacting you again.”


“Hannah is so patient and kind. She made sure Ellie was happy and healthy during her stay, went above and beyond in her care, and was very communicative with me. I highly recommend her for any pup, especially if you need special accommodations for medical or behavioral issues.”
