Amazing sitter and amazing service! Lawrencia is very flexible, great at communication and giving daily updates/pics. She took such good care of my dog from the time my dog was a puppy until now. My baby is always spoiled rotten and I felt like my dog got a vacation as much as I did. I have booked with Lawrencia for the last 2 years and I’ll definitely will continue booking with her!! 💜

I was hesitant using Rover for the first time, but Ellen did a phenomenal job making my dog and myself feel very comfortable with the decision to board. She communicated very well with many updates, pictures and videos. I would 100000% recommend her services! Thank you, Ellen, for taking such good care of my boy!

Megan watched our dog Gizmo over the weekend and it was our first time ever using Rover / leaving him with someone other than family. Megan was AMAZING. She sent lots of updates / photos, he communication was great and she was extremely flexible with drop off and pick up times. She was the sweetest thing and Gizmo had a great time which made it so much less stressful for us while we were away. Will most definitely be using Megan from here on out to watch our pups!!!

Nate and Whitney did an amazing job watching Mac! They sent many updates and pictures of how Mac was doing while he stayed with them. When I picked him up the next day he was exhausted so it is safe to say he had a blast staying with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter!

Rachel boarded Levi for 4 nights, 5 days. She was very responsive and proactive with communicating. Had daily updates and pictures throughout the day. Her in home pets are friendly and were an added benefit that we sought after for a much needed get away for our 120lb German Sheppard. She accommodated softing his food and allowed him to be relaxed on the furniture and bed with the other animals. I know Levi would be excited to see us dropping him off again.

Amanda and Brandon are my go-to every time I need a dog sitter. They are so good with my two shibas, one of which can be very difficult. My boys LOVE their two doggos, and they always come home pleasantly tired from all the playtime! I would trust Amanda with my dogs any time, anywhere. Highly recommend :)

Hallie was awesome with our dog for a long weekend trip. She has a nice clean home with a fenced in yard. We felt really comfortable the whole time and did not worry about Foss at all. He did great with her pups and it’s obvious she cares so much about our dog’s well-being which is exactly what we want when leaving our dog with someone. She was quick to respond to all of our messages, too.

Shea watched my dog Beau last summer. She was always good about getting him outside and exercised. She even knew he didn’t care for other dogs so she paid close attention to keeping his distance.

My sitter cancelled just a few days before my vacation and Logan saved the day! He not only agreed to sit Rommel, but Rommel came home very happy! He typically doesn't eat much when we're gone but he seems to have been happy enough with his new friends that he ate more than any other time he's been boarded. He also enjoyed Logan's dog and clearly got enough play time because he came home tired. I will absolutely be using Logan next time we need a sitter!
