“Jennifer was amazing! So thankful I found her when I did. Roulette had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed her play date. Jennifer was responsive and sent updates constantly. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter.”
“Tynesha and her family were fantastic, sending photos and quick updates throughout our pet’s stay with them! He came back to us happy and healthy (and probably missing his new temporary family a little bit, too). It gives me great peace of mind to know that, if/when we next have to go out of town, we have this great option for our dog!”
“Very happy with how my Brownie was taking care of and they keep me up to date when ever I asked how he was doing will be using them again when ever we have to go out of town and are unable to take Brownie with us. Very kind family. Thank you very much.”
“Second time Shaun watched our giant bernedoodle. So happy - he makes it so we can vacation without stressing about our pup. Shaun takes him on multiple walks a day, sends pics and updates about how he slept and how he is feeling. Highly recommend!”
“My dog Kona had a great time with Amrit and his daughter last week. I received regular updates and photos which put me at ease while I was away. Amrit was very responsive from the start and responded quickly to coordinate a meet and greet. Although he was not available for the entire duration of my trip, he offered to watch my dog for as long as he could which I appreciated very much especially during the busy summer months. I definitely recommend Amrit (and his daughter) to watch your dog! I am hoping they are available the next time I am away. Thank you for taking such great care of Kona!! 😊”
“Stacia was fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!! I would highly recommend!! This was my first time boarding my blind and diabetic dog overnight and she made sure that he was well taken care of! She followed all of the instructions to care for him and provided him with his medication and insulin shot on time plus lots of love!!❤️ She constantly kept me updated and provided me with loads pictures throughout the day. I was extremely nervous at first because I’ve never boarded him since he became a diabetic but she did a phenomenal job with him!!! We are soooooo happy to have found the perfect sitter for our little fur baby!!? We will definitely rebook in the future!!! Thank you so much once again!!!!!”
“Thank you so much for watching Duncan, Carine! From your communication to all the great pictures, we felt so comfortable knowing that Duncan was in great hands with you. We will definitely rebook with you again!”
“Our dog loved staying with Ellen! He eats and swallows almost everything smaller than a pillow so she worked with us to ensure her home was free of any dangers and he did well! We will absolutely rebook in the future”
“So happy i finally found a sitter i can trust! Super responsible & keeps me updated. My baby is always happy when i pick him up letting me know he’s enjoying the time spent with Jay & Benji.”
“Stephanie did such a great job watching my dog! Not only did she agree to watch him last minute, but she was very accommodating about my dog's separation anxiety. She slowly introduced her other dogs to him and made sure he gradually was introduced to the other dogs, so he wasn't overwhelmed. Additionally, I was updated at least 3 times a day with a description of his day with great pictures and videos. I would recommend Stephanie to watch your dogs if needing a sitter in the area!”
“Desiree did amazing job with my little Buddy when I was away. He had some appetite changes, and Desiree was patient with him and made sure he was able to eat. He is well rested and content after his stay. I appreciate how caring and kind Desiree is with my little pup. 😊😊😊”
“Megan and Nick were phenomenal! Lola felt right at home with their family and Bubba, their dog. They were responsive and sent my partner and I daily photo updates of our girl. I was afraid Lola wouldn’t want to leave come pick up because she was oh so loved and entertained during her stay with them. We found our trusted sitter family!”
“can’t thank Pallab enough for the love and care they gave Ashoka . From the thoughtful updates to the little details they paid attention to, we knew our pup was in the best hands. Ashoka adored him, and we felt complete peace of mind. We’re so grateful and will definitely rebook!””
“Caroline was a gem! She was very accommodating of the last minute request and the way she wanted to do a short meet and greet prior to my dog’s stay, it felt very genuine of her to ensure her dogs and my dog had a good introduction. I was nervous about leaving my dog Berkeley for a week, but Caroline and her family really loved on Berkeley like their own and I really loved that she sent frequent photos, videos, and updates about how Berkeley was doing.”
“Tiara was awesome and truly went above and beyond in caring for my cat. This was my first experience boarding and needless to say my cat and I were both a bit nervous about how it'd all go. For a cat that hasn't been away from me much in her 10 years that she had a blast and started to warm up to Tiara's cats (a little bit) is a testament to her care, attention and welcoming environment. She provided me with updates while I was away on my work trip and even gave me some cat dad advice with helpful tips on keeping my cat active and healthy. Highly recommend and will definitely be looking to book again for my next work trip”
“Sharon was able to take my booking at short notice and even took the time to meet me before I confirmed. Kept in touch brilliantly with updates and lovely photos of Poppy during her stay. I would definitely use Sharon again. Felt very secure leaving Poppy with her.”
“Robert responded quickly and was able to take our dog on short notice. We felt confident that our dog was in good hands while we were away. He kept in touch with us and sent videos and updates throughout the stay.”
“This was our first time using the Rover app and we are so glad we chose Luis. Very simple and quick to respond. Our frenchie, Marco seemed to love his stay and Luis said he was a very good boy and sent us updates and pictures regularly. Marco even seemed a little sad to be picked up and taken away from the friends he made. We will surely use Luis again the next time we need a dog sitter! Thank you Luis.”

I cannot recommend Diana & Harish enough. They cared for our girl for 10 days, and I never worried. They loved Jersey as if she were their own. She received lots of walks, play time, and snuggles from this awesome family. And we were kept updated with photos and messages the whole time. We will easily be back for another visit :)
Jennifer took such good care of my puppy and my cat! My puppy is definitely the energizer bunny and I know she can be a lot but Jennifer did a great job with her! She had such a patience and love for our little pup and took care of her all weekend! She made sure my pup and my cat didn’t get into any alterations and she understood each of their needs! It was hard to leave them behind when we went on our trip but we had such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands! HIGHLY recommend Jennifer!!!
Nan was very responsible and very considerate! My dog, Astro, wasnt feeling well in the first day, Nan took cared of him so well that i cannot express my appreciation! She spent all night with limited sleeptime with him to make sure he was Ok. Astro had a great time with her! We definitly woyld like to work with her. I highly recommend her!
Jessica and her family are amazing. We went away for a long trip and they kept in touch, sent pictures and videos and gave frequent updates. Most importantly our puppy came home happy and relaxed. I would highly recommend using Jessica for boarding for a home away from home for your dog.
