“"I cannot recommend our pet sitter enough! They provided exceptional care for our puppy while we attended a wedding Our pet “gigi” was happy, Marcela went above and beyond, sending us regular updates and photos to give us peace of mind. Their love and dedication to animals truly shines through in their work. We will definitely be using their services again in the future!"”
“I needed someone super last minute to watch my dog, Rocco and came across Cindy! Cindy was very accommodating! I felt like Rocco was in the best hands! I felt at ease and glad I found someone in the neighborhood. She sent me pictures throughout the day and kept me updated with my dog. I will definitely be booking again!! Thank you so much again Cindy!”
“My dog's recent stay with Cynthia A. was a very positive experience. We had great communication and the facility is set up nicely for dogs. As a bonus, Cynthia has extensive experience with dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her.”
“My boys had a wonderful time with Catherine. She was very good dealing with my one dog when there was a Thunderstorm. My boys were happy to see me but I think they would have stayed with Catherine if they could have. I would absolutely recommend her to others.”
“Lisa and Michael were the perfect sitters! They took so many adorable and funny pictures of our little one to show us how well she was taken care of. Our pup came back happy! We will definitely book again! I feel lucky to have found them!”
“Our dog Pepper had a wonderful stay with Matthew and Kristin over the Thanksgiving holiday. They were super communicative and sent photos of our pup throughout the weekend. I think Pepper wants us to go out of town again so she can go back and see her new friends! Thanks for everything, Matthew and Kristin!!”
“Maria, Eric and Pennie were amazing hosts. They kept us posted multiple times a day with great photos and videos of our dog Bertie playing non stop in the yard with Pennie, who’s is the friendliest and prettiest Husky Shepard mix. They have a pristine home and a great yard for play. I would highly recommend this family and will definitely be using them again for Bertie’s next vacation.”
“Syriah is an amazing dog sitter who has always gone above and beyond for my senior shepherd. I can relax knowing that my dog is in good hands with her and she is excellent with texting updates and photos. Its so hard leaving him but my dog is always very excited to see her and happily walks away with her despite having some seperation anxiety.”
“Tricia was beyond amazing for us! Our pittie Lexi has some separation anxiety Trisha went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable. We got multiple pictures and messages throughout our vacation as well. We would highly recommend Trisha to anyone and will absolutely be using her again. Lexi loved her!”
“Our dog Phoebe loved her stay with Jeff! We appreciated knowing she was made to feel like part of his family, given lots of attention, walks, and play time. Jeff communicated daily including lots of pictures. Jeff’s knowledge and genuine love of dogs is so apparent and we wont hesitate to rebook with him in the future!”
“Christina was amazing with dudley. She sent photos every day as well as text updates to let me know what they doing at the park and on walks and how my snugglepuff was adjusting and settling in. She gave me early notice that the food was running low so I was able to send her more well before it ran out and became an emergency. He also enjoyed playing with onyx, the neighbor dog, and I was thrilled he had the canine company. She was very loving and kind towards duds, and I am sending him back next week for 3 more days to board while I wrap up a work event.”
“Tara S and her family are amazing ?. They took such good care of my Louie - including washing all of his bedding the day I came to get him. She has two good sized good natured dogs that kept him busy the entire time we were gone. I highly recommend her if you have a good natured medium sized dog they likes companionship & playtime. My Louie is about 90 lbs just so you have an idea of what I mean by good sized dog. We will absolutely use them again ?”
“Christine is just the best! From our first conversation to picking my pup up this morning I felt incredibly comfortable. I had a bad experience with a previous dog sitting situation but Christine was so kind and and understanding about my million questions and nerves. She even gave me a detailed breakdown of her dog’s diet and mine has been fussy lately about food. I can’t say enough good things about Christine! Thank you so so much!”
“Lauren was VERY accomodating graciously accepting Cub on short notice with later than expected arrival. Interested in getting to know Cub s tendencies. Sent pictures. Very patient with unexpected diarrhea first night. Gave Cub a bath! Highly recommended Lauren!”
“Leo had a great time with Lorena. Lorena has no problems giving him all his medication. He enjoyed his time with Lorena and got to sleep in her bedroom and take fun walks and dance to Spanish music. I received many pictures and videos during Leo’s time with Lorena.”

Shirley dog parents share their Rover experiences
Emma was a wonderful pet sitter to our 5 month puppy. She was gentle and kind. She provided updates and pictures. Administered rx medicine daily. Provided daily exercise and active play with the help of her pup. I felt that my puppy was always in great hands the entire stay.
I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Lauren and Kenny. They took amazing care of my 9 month old pup Melo, while I was away for the week. From the very beginning communication was clear and consistent I received regular updates and videos that really helped put my mind at ease. Melo came back not only happy and healthy but noticeably calmer and more balanced which really says a lot about the quality of care he received. It’s clear that Lauren and Kenny treats the dogs they watch like their own. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!
Lorena is amazing!! Truly a dog whisperer!! She watched our one and a half year old, high energy, Belgian Malinois in her home while we were away recently. She is professional, has a clean house, and is very considerate with informing you of how your dog is doing throughout the day. She sent us pictures and videos of him having a good time which alleviated our stress and put our mind at ease. I can tell Lorena really loves what she does and gave our dog the love and attention that he is used to at home, which we could not be more pleased about. We look forward to having Storm hang out with Lorena again in the near future!
