We had our Golden with Brian during an overseas trip. Thanks to Brian and his family for taking such great care of our dog. It all worked out great.

Perfect place for my pampered pet. I thought he might not want to leave. Lots of cozy places for him to snuggle with other pets and both Emily & Christine. Plenty of room to run around outside and fun kids too. play with

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Aaron took such great care of Rufus while we were away. He kept us updated with lots of photos and great communication throughout the week. We really appreciated the extra attention to his comfort and well-being. Rufus clearly loved his stay and honestly didn’t want to leave. Highly recommend!

All the hype about Dante is true! He’s communicative, accommodating, and really great energy. He asks a lot of questions to ensure my Kado was well taken care of. Dante is someone who truly loves what he does and that makes me happy. I think Kado and I found a permanent sitter until Dante retires us lol

Ami and James were so responsive and we all loved the daily pictures and videos of our sweet puppy, Penny! She came home having made new furry friends, and, best of all, she was TUCKERED out! Definitely will be booking with Ami, James, and their lovely family again. :)

First-time Rover user here, and I was definitely a bit anxious going in but I didn’t need to be. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend Andres. He’s easygoing, clearly great with dogs, and made the whole experience stress-free. My rescue chihuahua mix can be a little temperamental, especially around men, but Andres handled him without any issues. I also really appreciated the daily photo updates and quick check-ins—it gave me peace of mind knowing how my pup was doing. Overall, a really positive experience. Thanks again, Andres!

Sherry was so kind and attentive to our dog. She had us do a meet-and-greet, which helped my dog to go to her when we dropped her off. She sent us pictures and videos while we were apart. She walked our dog frequently. We are grateful for her kindness to our dog.

David is a wonderful pet sitter. We have a senior dog who needs medicine twice a day and wants to be by your side all the time because he is partially blind and has lost his hearing. When Rocco returns from a stay with David, he is still the same happy pup. David is also very flexible with adapting to any changes that might come up with your plans for your pet’s stay. David has become my regular pet sitter and I always know my pet is in great hands. I highly recommend David!

Kate was awesome! She was super communicative and before and during Chocolate’s stay. Chocolate is a little shy sometimes but it seemed like Kate put her right at ease and made Chocolate comfortable from the start.

Meagan is truly a wonderful dog sitter. She was welcoming ,communicative each day about how Charlie and Bella were doing, and she sent great pictures. Having our fur babies stay with Meagan allowed for us to enjoy our family vacation. I will definitely be using Meagan again and I highly recommend her! Thank you Meagan!!

Danita and her family were amazing with our dog Finley. She updated us frequently and sent photos of our dog settling in and getting comfortable. I knew our dog was in good hands, was well taken care of, and got plenty of walks and belly rubs. I would 100% recommend Danita to care for your dog!
