“I would leave my fur babies with Bethany again in a heart beat! She and her son took excellent care of lily and Liam. They had a great time snuggling with them and they were able to meet new fur friends which they really needed since they don’t get a chance to play with other dogs since this messy Covid started!”

“Isabel and her husband were the best hosts I could have asked for for my puppy! This was my first time leaving my dog, Wren, overnight anywhere for longer than 1 night and they were phenomenal with her. Isabel was constantly sending me updates and the most adorable photos which provided me with so much comfort knowing that Wren was taken care of. Her dogs and mine got along great so knowing that she had some friends with her the whole 8 days was a HUGE bonus. It's so nice knowing that when I travel again in the future, I have someone safe to leave my dog with. Thank you Isabel!”

“Natasha was an excellent caregiver to our dog Lola for 12 days. She kept us up to date on how are girl was doing with daily photos and videos. It put us at peace to know she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Natasha to watch your pet!”


“I completely trust Misael with my dog Ollie who has a lot of anxiety and does not get along with other dogs, he has been nothing but amazing! He watched Ollie before and because of our great experience we quickly booked him for our international trip! I highly recommend!”

“Our dog had a great time with Emilee and her family. Emilee was very attentive to our boy's specific needs. Emilee was very easy to communicate with and sent regular updates and photos during his visit. We look forward to using Emilee for pet sitting services in the future!”

“My puppy Luna literally did not want to leave. Not only are Nicole’s dogs friendly, her family is wonderful. My dog felt at home and appeared to make new friends.”

“Anne was amazing! So attentive and took in mind my dogs usual routine- and took extra great care of her! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her and would definitely recommend her.”

“Matthew was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Teddie! From the start, he was incredibly kind and communicative, which helped us feel at ease. Teddie is an older pup who recently had back surgery, and Matthew was not only understanding of his needs but also made sure he was comfortable and well cared for throughout the stay. It was clear Teddie felt at home with him right away. We’re so grateful for the thoughtful care Matthew provided—thank you for taking such good care of our sweet boy!”

“Karen is very sweet and caring. She loves pups and treats them as their own. Our dog stayed with her while we were on vacation for a week and we were not worried at all. Her dog is gentile and very playful which our dog loved. They played together a lot and it was sad to take her away from him when we got home. We will definitely be rebooking!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Karen’s care of Mellie! It was such a relief knowing that she was being well cared for while I was away. I really appreciated the picture updates and being able to check in often. Mellie had a blast with the other dogs & didn’t seem impressed when it was time to pick her up - that’s how I know she had a great stay!”

“Alyssa was the first time I ever hired a pet sitter 😊. I was super impressed!! Willow is a rescue we only had about a month, so we were concerned about having her get nervous and anxious in a new environment and away from us. Alyssa kept us updated on my Willow's stay - pictures and prose. We were so relieved to see Willow getting along so well with Alyssa. Willow came back content, and we were so happy to have found Alyssa!! Your pets will be so lucky to have Alyssa care for them; do not hesitate in the least. You will see for yourself what a loving and codependent care she gives them !”

“Cierra and her family were amazing with Biscuit!! She sent pictures, was very communicative and flexible, and Biscuit was so comfortable and happy in her home. I will absolutely be contacting her next time I need a sitter!!”

“We are a repeat customer with Robert. Daily updates with pics and videos. Great communication and very flexable with pic ups and drop offs. He socialized our pet in walks and visits, which we love.”

“First time leaving Gus for a long time. Courtney kept me at ease with her great communication and sharing photos! Her dog Lucy and Gus hit it off right away. I’ve already rebooked for another upcoming trip! Recommend 100/10”

“Heather, My experience with you was nothing short of amazing for both my dog, Sawyer, and myself. Even before booking, you showed a genuine interest in learning all about Sawyer. It was clear that you not only love dogs but truly wanted to make him feel welcome in your home. You provided a dog-friendly environment and kept me well-informed with regular updates and photos through the Rover app. Thank you for taking such great care of him. He’s really looking forward to his next visit with you. BTW, he enjoyed the rest of his Birthday Cupcake! Warm regards, Brian”

“Julie and Tiffany are the best! They took wonderful care of our dog and sent some great pictures that showed how happy he was. We are first time users and always used kennels to board him in the past. Never again! Thank you Julie and Tiffany for doing such a great job!”

“Nick was perfect. He was able to accommodate us on a last minute cancellation. My family was traveling from NY to RI for the Metallica show at Gillette. Our sitter cancelled last minute and Nick was there to assist. He was tremendous with our 95 lb mastiff puppy and we definitely recommend him for your sitting/boarding needs. Thank you Nick! We appreciate you!”

“Keasha and her son are the best ! First time using Rover and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. You can tell Keasha and her son love animals. Pictures and video updates were awesome to receive. Will definitely ask them to watch her again. Highly recommend.”

“Danielle is awesome!!!! My little guy Cooper can be a handful and she was wonderful with him!! So good that it took him a fews mins to want to come in the house when she dropped him off!!!!! She will be my go to sitter for Cooper for sure!!!!”

Best. Rover. Ever!!! Our pup had the absolute best time ever at Ashley’s place with her family and own pup. K played nonstop with her new bestie. Ashley was super communicative and sent the most beautiful pictures and sweet updates. Thank you x a million! K can’t wait to go back 😁

Caera was amazing! From the start, I felt super comfortable leaving my pup with her. She kept me updated with messages and the cutest pictures, which made me feel so at ease. I could tell my dog was happy, loved, and totally spoiled while I was away! She was super sweet, followed all my instructions, and really went the extra mile. It honestly felt like my dog was on a mini vacation too. I’m so glad I found her and will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much, Caera, you’re the best!
