“Whenever I leave my Prince with Jeremy I am never worried that he won’t be loved on like at home…the pictures Jeremy sends are so awesome and I know my boy is loved in Jeremy’s home!”

“Kayle was great with my dog Rocky! She sent photos every day and I could tell he was having a good time. 10/10 would recommend her as a sitter. I will be asking her to petsit for me in the future!”

“Roger and his family are the best. Ivy was torn between coming home with us and staying with Roger. I received pictures multiple times a day to show me how much fun Ivy was having. I highly recommend Roger to everyone.”

“Kaitlin and her husband Nathan took excellent care of my little dog Molly. This is the first time I left her alone with someone else, for over a couple weeks. They helped Molly transition from having a minor separation anxiety, to become fully comfortable by the end of the stay. They cared for her like their own dog. Kaitlin sent photo updates every few days. I recommend Kaitlin, and would book with her again!”

“We have used Kristen before and she continues to be absolutely amazing with our two dachshund boys! We couldn’t be happier with the care they received. Kristen followed all of our instructions and kept us updated with photos and messages. It’s so obvious how comfortable and happy they are in her home and you can tell that she always makes them feel safe, loved, and entertained. Thanks again Kristen!”

“This was my first time booking with Diahann and not only was my baby treated like family, he was given opportunities to choose an open kennel, soft blanket, or comfy bed to safely rest his little head on during the day. The peace of mind was amazing when seeing Sterno in so many adorable pics, as well as how kind Diahann's granddaughter treated my baby as they played fetch in a wonderful video I received early on in his stay. Sterno is very active and playful, and I couldn't have requested a better sitter for him!! Diahann truly cares like it's her own dog. There are cameras, a huge yard, and Sterno was very calm during pickup, which showcased how comfortable he had been. I am adding that Diahann was very responsive to a suggested video meet, and proceeded to give a wonderful tour of her Dog-friendly and dog-safe home before Sterno's drop off date. She is thoughtful like that. You will love her too! Thank you for this caring dog-sitting experience Diahann! I will def book again!”

“Charlie has such a great time when he goes and visit his friends at Miss Heather‘s! He comes home from being properly spoiled and just sleeps. And I can tell he misses it there already. Already looking forward to the next visit!”

“Cami did a fantastic job with our dog Piper. We received updates and pictures every day. Piper was very calm and happy when I picked her up. We will definitely book with Cami again!”

“Noelle was absolutely fantastic! We have never had our dogs stay away from our house, so it was a bit nerve wracking for them to stay away for four nights while we were out of town. But Noelle made the process so easy and enjoyable! She made our pups feel at home from the moment we did a meet and greet. She took them for walks, played games with them and let them have plenty of space to hang out. When we came home, you could really tell that the dogs had a wonderful experience. They were clean, happy and excited to see us. I know I can’t wait to book with her again!!”

“Bobbi is the best sitter I have had! My dog fit in perfectly at her home and was comfortable to entire visit. Bobbi kept me updated and was very flexible with our situation. Will most definitely book with her anytime I need a sitter in the future!”


“Kirsten and Nathan went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt right at home while we were away. They kept us updated with great communication and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. So grateful to have found them! Highly recommend.”

“Took excellent care of our active young dog. Sent photos and videos daily. He definitely had a good time playing with her dogs! Thank you for all your help while we were away!”

“Jerry has been wonderful. He went out of his way to help me out in a last minute situation a couple months ago and then was so understanding and flexible when our plans changed last minute. For this trip he was super helpful in coordinating care and made sure to send updates and pictures each night. Our boy was taken care of and the process was beyond easy with Jerry! Highly recommend his services!”

“Lani is truly the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our dogs are very happy and comfortable staying with her. She takes a genuine interest in their health and happiness. We could not be happier! Thank you for be there for us and for everything you do.”

I highly recommend Melody! She was responsive, flexible with my last-minute plans, and incredibly loving and attentive with my dogs. As a first-time boarder, I really appreciated her regular updates and secure home and yard, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Melody truly helped soothe both my anxiety and my dogs’, and they ended up having a little mini vacation of their own! I would absolutely trust her with my babies again. She provides top-notch care, and her extra flexibility is definitely worth showing appreciation for with a tip! ❤️🐾

Great first stay with Kevin and Vonnie. Our 11 year old yellow lab was well taken care of. Hosts were great communicators, attentive and clearly enjoyed time with Lily. Their home was perfect with a large secure backyard and comfortable inside. We have already booked a future stay.

I’m not new to Rover, but this was I first using Karla for my two boys (Benny & Teddy). These boys are my babies… they’re special to me. I’m pretty sure most pet owners feel the same way about their fur babies. So it’s important for me to have someone who is caring, attentive, trusting and reliable watch over them while I’m gone… especially when I’ll out of the country. Karla met all of these expectations. My original sitter canceled on me a few days before my trip… which is stressful. Karla was available and willing to do a meet & greet with a short notice. Immediately my guys were comfortable with her which made me feel comfortable. She was great with regular updates and photos of them… it looked like they were on vacation too😁. If I sent a message, she always responded in a timely manner. We will definitely be back.

Ethan was absolutely amazing!! We brought our 13-year old dog and 7 month old puppy, and both were very clearly happy and cared for! It was our first time boarding them, and we were really nervous about it but Ethan sent us plenty of picture and video notifications that set us at ease. Honestly if we could give him 100 stars we would!!

We have booked with Micayla several times for boarding at her house and our dog always comes back to us tired out and happy. She sends us adorable pics throughout our dog’s stay as she is playing with other pups in Micayla’s care and it looks like our dog is smiling in each pic:) Will definitely re-book with her when the need arises. Thank you!

My girl had a wonderful time and Keana was a fantastic host for her. She got lots of walks and attention while I was away. Keana was a perfect host for an anxious dog mom. I enjoyed all the photos of their adventures together and am glad to know I have a great dog sitter for the next time I’m out of town!

Kyley and her family took great care of Dot on her 2 night stay. I received regular updates with photos on how well she was doing which allowed me to enjoy my time away especially since this was my first time away from her since I adopted her. I will definitely book with them again. She had so much fun, she’s tuckered out!
