“I appreciated Melisa and Alexis daily review and they followed my pet’s routine. He was a bit nervous as it was his first time boarding but they kept on sending me pictures and updates every few hours. I appreciated that they let me know about his anxiety his first night, with restless sleep and offered to correct what was causing his anxiety which worked the 2nd night. He slept better and I really appreciated their proactiveness with it. I am at ease now knowing that I found a loving family to take care of my lil Cinco when I need it. Thank you so much Melisa and Alexis.”

I have been trying to implement healthier foods into my babies meals, but she wouldn’t eat it. Bernadette was successful in getting my doggy to eat the healthier foods! She truly has a magical way with dogs. I’m so happy I found her!”

Cash loved him and his partner, and we felt very comfortable leaving Cash with them for a couple days. Highly recommend and looking forward to booking again!”
“I would like to express my immense gratitude to Lousine and Araik for their exceptional care of my beloved dog Kobe. When my family and I had to travel out of state for a wedding, we were in need of someone to look after our furry friend. Initially, I had only planned for a dog visit check-in, but Lousine and Araik went above and beyond by offering to board Kobe at their home. This was the first time I had ever left Kobe at someone else’s house, and I was naturally a bit hesitant. However, they immediately put my mind at ease by warmly welcoming Kobe into their home and treating her as one of their own. Their genuine love and care for animals was evident from the moment we met them. Throughout my trip, they kept me updated with regular messages, pictures and videos of Kobe. These thoughtful gestures made me feel connected to kobe and assured me that she was in great hands. Seeing how happy and comfortable she was with them brought me so much joy. I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care they truly went above and beyond my expectations, and I couldn’t have asked for better caretakers. I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of a responsible and loving pet sitter. I will definitely be booking Kobe again for all my future trips. Thank you again, Lousine and Araik, for taking such a wonderful care of Kobe. You are both amazing pet caregivers, and I am grateful.”
“Lillybeth was so nice and responsive. I can tell my dog enjoyed his stay. She provided me a lot of photos and videos of the stay. Will definitely recommend and book again.”
“Thank you for being so great with our dogs, especially with such a large second request! The pups seemed like they had a great time! I appreciate it! We will be back should the need arise!”
“Our dog has stayed with Janelle twice now. She is always very quick to respond to any requests or questions, and has always been able to accommodate me last-minute. She sends pictures and updates often so I never have to worry or wonder how things are going. I know she takes great care of our dog, and we are able to enjoy our time away knowing he is in good hands. ”
“We were very happy to have Jean watching our dog for 8 days while traveling over Thanksgiving. She was good with communicating and sending pictures. Our dog got along well with her other 2 dogs. There is a small doggy door to the backyard which our dog was already familiar with. Nice grassy backyard in a quiet neighborhood.”

Simply EXCELLENT. 5 stars! Her home is safe, comforting, and full of love. She spends time with our puppies and makes them feel right at home.

Sylmar dog parents share their Rover experiences
This is our second time leaving our baby boy Charlie with Edwin and his Amazing wife Ann. My wife and I are very comfortable with Charlie being there. Charlie is well taken care of, with daily pictures and updates. We’re able to relate and not worry. Thank you guys . Charlie will definitely be back
I wholeheartedly recommend Adrián and his girlfriend as exceptional pet sitters. During my recent absence, they provided outstanding care for my dog, Doc Brown. Their home features a secure, grassy backyard, ideal for a canine companion. Beyond the excellent facilities, however, I was most impressed by their warm and welcoming personalities. Their genuine kindness and clear affection for animals were readily apparent throughout Doc Brown's stay. I have complete confidence in their ability to provide responsible and loving care for any pet.
