She played ball with him, kept him entertained with games, cuddled with him, and treated him like he was her own dog. One thing I especially appreciated was how many videos and updates she sent. It gave me so much peace of mind seeing Marty having fun and being so well cared for. He looked genuinely happy and comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely trust Tiffany to watch Marty again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and dependable pet sitter.”

South River City dog parents share their Rover experiences
Katie was great with Koko! My usual sitters were booked for the week, so I was thrilled when I found Katie’s profile and she was able to step in. Her reviews speak for themselves! She clearly takes wonderful care of her furry clients. She responded promptly and even agreed to meet for a quick introduction before Koko’s stay. Throughout the week, she sent daily updates and pictures of their adventures, so I always knew how Koko was doing. I’ll definitely be using Katie’s services again and highly recommend her!
Jamie is amazing! My dog has separation anxiety and had never been left before. She howled for two hours when I dropped her off, but Jamie was able to make her comfortable and turned it into a wonderful visit. Great communication and lots of pictures and updates. Jamie will be my first choice the next time I’m out town. I highly recommend her.
Mason did a fantastic job watching my dog, Oscar. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about Oscar’s well-being. I appreciated the updates and photos while I was away, and Oscar came home happy and relaxed. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Mason again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter.
