“Incredible care for Oakley. I highly recommend Elizabeth and Phillip. They have Aussie experience and it made whole stay much easier. Oakley fit right in and I appreciated their flexibly on his food and exercises!”
“Leah’s home is a perfect fit for our 14 year old toy poodle! She accommodates all of our special request with love and gentleness. Thank you for allowing us to take a vacation without worrying about our senior baby.”
“This was my very first time boarding coco so I was very nervous about leaving her but Heather made me and coco feel like family ! She was very attentive with pictures and keeping me updated on her progress during the stay. Coco is a diabetic so there was an extra layer of anxiety with that but again Heather was very much on top of things which allowed me to have a great weekend away without worrying. I will definitely use her services again.”

“She take a very good care of my dog, always send pictures to keep me updated and ask questions about the dog to make they’re as comfortable as they can. She even gives my dog a shower before he leave. She also pay attention to how my dog eat and notice that he’s only eat if you mix his food. I would definitely recommend her and be back next time.”

“Wow! That was a GREAT experience booking our dog Samson with Crystal---she went above and beyond! She sent us multiple pictures and a video, which warmed our hearts.💕 She was so friendly when we dropped him off and picked him up, and we could tell he was very comfortable there by how he acted then and how he was in the video. And the kicker was, he slept in bed with her! You know she is a dog person by that! Thanks Crystal, we will book with you next time!!!”
“She is the best dog sitter. This was the first time me and boyfriend have gone away from our dog for my parents family vacation. We have not had our dog Buster for more than like 5 months and he suffers from really bad anxiety. We had him with a friend and it wasn’t working out so I found Sharon on this app and she replied right away! She not only drove, I would say at least 40+ minutes or more to go pick him up from our friend’s house since we had already left for vacation but she sent very detailed updates every day. She took him on walks and even played calming music in order to help with the anxiety. Her dog that she has had for many years got along with Buster very well and kept him company. I will definitely be using her again and I am so thankful for everything she did while watching Buster when we were gone!”
“Ciara is the utmost professional on top of being an excellent caregiver. When our flight got cancelled due to storms & we couldn’t get back when we originally planned, Our minds were at ease knowing our Bella was in good hands with Ciara until other arrangements could be made. Her communication is excellent & Bella always enjoys her stay with Ciara.”
“Batman had a little vacation while I was on vacation! Lori sent pictures of dog friends and fun activities. My pup is completely zonked and I'm sure he had a blast. Thanks Lori.”
“Our Great Dane had such a good time! Christina was amazing. Kept us in the loop and sent pictures. It made our vacation so much better not having to stress about our dog. Will 100% be using Christina again.”
“Daphne was wonderful! She took Lola as a last minute booking and we couldn't be happier! We received daily picture updates. Lola was treated like a little princess with lots of love! 🩷 Highly recommend Daphne!”
“Aspen was great with responding and providing details about her services. She was pleasant to talk to and Snoop was very comfortable with her. Her location was convenient to the airport and my boy was happy when we returned home. I will definitely request her services again!”

Kaitlin and her pups were amazing with our golden Marty. We contacted her on pretty short notice as our plans changed while in town and she was very easy to communicate with throughout the process. Marty enjoyed her time there and would highly recommend Kaitlin.
Amazing experience! Aspen was so sweet and caring with my dog. She sent me videos and updates every few hours, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My pup looked happy and relaxed the whole time. I truly appreciate the attention and love she gave him—highly recommend!
Breana was amazing. She loved on Bosey and treated him as her own. She sent plenty of pics and he had a ball. I am so grateful to find her on Rover. Do not hesitate to use her. Her home is so relaxing and calming. Boseh made himself at home. She was wonderful!
Bubby only stayed one night but Valerie was very easy to work with and very communicative. We did a meet and greet beforehand to make sure everyone was comfortable and her place was well suited for dog sitting. I wasn’t worried about him at all, I knew he’d be in good hands. He came back happy and tired (in a good way!).
