“Maureen was wonderful! Short notice, she was able to jump in and help us out with care for our Mia when we really needed someone! So grateful to her! Thanks again Maureen...you are the best! Linda P.”
“David is a responsible and trustworthy person. He watched our dog for ten days in our home and we returned to a happy dog and a clean and well cared for home. We would not hesitate to book David again!”
“Stephanie did an incredible job with our two golden retrievers. She sent me lots of pictures while we were gone and i could tell the dogs were having a great time. She left our house immaculate - it looked better than before we left! She was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“10/10 for another stay with Stephanie! I got so many updates and pictures of my sweet babies while away! She went above and beyond! Always made sure they had fresh food and water and ample love!! Even did laundry before she left! Cannot recommend Stephanie enough! If you are looking for someone to not only care for your animals but also your home - book with Stephanie!”
“Taylor and Bruno are great exceptional dog sitters. They were prompt and communicative from scheduling the meetup to staying on track with my puppers needs along with updates. I opted for an in house sitter for a short staycation since my dog gets anxious with quick changes and they were super respectful and left my place better than they found it. Would definitely recommend them!”
“Mary did a wonderful job caring for our Coco! Coco is 14 years old Shih Tzu and is on 2 medications and is very particular with his food. She took extra care and followed directions perfectly!! We have already scheduled her for another visit for a longer time. Thank you so much Mary!! 🐾🐶”
“Alyssa was available to take care of my boy at the last minute, and im not sure why she was available to book because she did an amazing job caring for my 75 pound siberian husky. She went above and beyond to ensure his needs were met and provided lots of photo updates to put my mind at rest that everything was going fine.”
“Jason was so great with both dogs. One dog is so scared.. barks, nips. Jason was patient and caring, and soon they were buddies. Jason goes above and keeps house and yard clean. We’ll definitely call on Jason again.”
“Victoria was absolutely amazing with my fur babies! They are older and require medication administration with meals / can have some anxiety but she was on the ball and made sure everyone was on schedule with meds and meal time ! I came home to the house the exact way I'd left it ! (Maybe a bit tidier!) I would recommend Victoria to anyone and will be hiring her to take care of my pups whenever I go out of town in the future !”
“Peyton was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be happier. Our dog Charlie is over 15 and blind, so requires some extra attention and someone to stay at our house. Peyton took great care of both Charlie and our home. She provided multiple updates and photos throughout each day which we really appreciated. Highly recommended!”
“Brooke was very kind, positive, and communicated well with texts and photos, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind. The pets were well taken care of.”

Shady Oak Farms pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lillian was very good at communicating with pictures some days. This is one of the most important things to having someone in your home watching our Precious Fluffys . She let our Cockapoo snuggle in bed with her , that made Amber much more comfortable and lessened her missing us . She also made headway with our kitty , that is very shy . She got him to come to her for pets and snacks . This made us feel even better fir a more Peaceful vacation . Lillian is a delight , she also fed the squirrels in our yard and refreshed their water , which is so important during drought times . She also left our hone so clean, we almost couldn't tell she was here . Thank You Lillian for all of your help . We will hire her again .
Katie was the best sitter ever!! She was so reliable and took such good care of my three dogs. She didn’t just let them out for a quick potty, every time she stopped by she spent lots of time with them keeping them company. She also sent so many photos that made me feel really secure about their well being. I will absolutely use Katie again! If you’re protective about your pets and want the best care possible- book with Katie!
We love Mason! He was absolutely amazing with our dogs. One of our pups is a feisty Chihuahua, and somehow Mason had him wrapped around his finger in no time! He was great about providing updates and keeping both dogs on their regular schedule while we were away for an extended weekend, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would definitely book Mason again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Kristin was great! My animals loved her and she sent pics after every visit. When I returned home my kitten became ill (to no fault of Kristin’s) and she was awesome in letting me know what his behavior was on the last visit and then helping me figure out what could be bothering him - return urinary pair. She even provided a vet recommendation since she knew we were newer to the area. I will definitely use her again!’
I know my dog Pickles is in great hands when Richi comes to pet sit for him. Pickles loves lots of attention and love and Richi is so caring and always sends me photos to enjoy. I highly recommend these two pet lovers for times we need to be away from our fur babies.
Jace was fantastic! She did 2 short visits before our trip to get to know our 3 kitties, including one that was still in the integration process. One of our cats has a special diet as well. She was very responsive and sent my wife plenty of photos and videos. We can tell our cats liked her and we will book her for our upcoming out-of-town time when we go to a wedding. She went above and beyond and because of her study situation online, she was able to be at our home about 18-20 hours per day, which replicates our schedule working almost entirely from home. If you think to book her, do it. You will not regret your decision.
