“Alexsys was amazing!!!! She was always so quick to respond and always sent an update each day on how my pup was doing. Sent videos and pictures of all the fun he was having and made it so easy for us to enjoy our trip without worrying about how he was doing. When my kids expressed how much they missed him she even sent extra pictures so they could see how much fun he was having. I would definitely recommend Alexsys and will definitely be using her again :)”
“Gabby took great care of my Bonnie girl while we were away on vacation. She asked good questions during our meet and greet. I am so glad that she was willing to have Bonnie as the only dog in the house for the majority of the 2 weeks we were away. Bonnie doesn't get along with many other dogs, so when her stay overlapped with another dog that was there for a couple days before her, Gabby immediately let us know and was prepared to keep them separated. Gabby gave us frequent updates and pictures that helped reassure us that she was doing well. All of the instructions I left for her feeding were followed exactly as well. I am so grateful that we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Bonnie was being taken care of as if I were there myself.”
“Walter and his family continue to take amazing care of our puppy. When leaving today, she whimpered - that’s a sign of a happy girl! We are so happy to have found this loving family. Thank you again for all that you do to make Harper feel right at home. We look forward to working with you again soon!”
“Linda is amazing! My baby dog had a wonderful time staying with her. Roxy was well taken care of and I even got updates and photos. Also a good thing to mention is she was able to help me figure out my dog had epilepsy. She calmly took care of my Roxy when she had an episode and explained everything that happened so I could get Roxy the best care with the information that was giving. She’s not a doctor but she has significant knowledge about animals and I think that is a plus when it comes to someone who is watching your dog. I highly recommend Linda!”
“Shaghayegh is so kind and an amazing dogsitter. She and her husband take such good care of Lilli that I NEVER worry at all. She sends cute pictures of Lilli having fun and is an excellent communicator. We have used Shaghayegh many times now, and will definitely continue!”
“We always feel reassured that our pup is taken care of and they’re happy to have her. Daisy is treated like the princess she is. I highly recommend their family to watch your beloved pets.”
“Janelle & Joel are absolutely fantastic! This was my first time using Rover, and I am so glad I chose them. They sent pics of my pup having the time of his life! Nothing better than having the peace of mind when leaving your fur baby for a weekend! Thanks you two! Will gladly be a returning client!”
“I can't say enough wonderful things. Katherine very appropriately vetted my dog to make sure he would be a good match with other dogs prior to agreeingto have our guys stay for a week. She sent me lots of pictures and updates throughout the week putting my mind at ease that everything was going well. The space is wonderful with lots of room and he came back home exhausted from playing with new friends. Our dog did not come home with any issues picked up from a new environment or new dogs. This was an absolutely wonderful experience and I have full trust in leaving our dog with Katherine.”
“Yzabella is one of the best dog sitters we have ever hired. She is very dedicated to the pets and shows them love. We can tell because our dog return back home after nearly 2 weeks very happy. While we were away, Yzabella has been staying in frequent communication with us, sending pictures and we can really tell that she show pets a lot of attention. She is very caring and we will definitely be back to her and hire her for dog sitting again when we need to go on another trip where we can not take our dog with us. Great job, really thankful for everything she did. 5/5 definitely! Thank you really so much from bottom of our hearts, Yzabella! See you again soon!”
“Jaclyn was amazing! Not only did she agree to a last-minute booking, but she went above and beyond. Dolly got a cute little collar when we picked her up, and she came back tired! She had so much fun hanging out with Jaclyn and her pups! If we ever travel to the area again, she will be our first ask!”
“Barbara was fantastic! We received daily updates with pictures. Would recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a sitter. Will definitely use her again.”
“Kosmo and Luna had a great time staying with Lori! We did a meet and greet before their stay, which helped Kosmo get comfortable. He has difficulties with introductions, and Lori was very understanding of the space he needed. She sent me photos each day of the pups and they looked so happy! Kosmo and Luna can't wait to come back!”
“Chris watched my dog, Francine while I was away and I can’t recommend him enough. He and his mom treated her like she was their own and provided daily updates and photos throughout her stay. It was a great experience and the most comfortable I’ve felt leaving my dog with someone else. If you need a trustworthy pet sitter, your dog will be in great hands with Chris.”
