Barry was great! He met with me quickly, his home and yard are wonderful. I like how he only allows one dog at a time. Happy to have made the contact, I’ll be reaching out again

John was a rock star with Yoda. He sent us regular updates and photos and went out of his way to match Yoda’s existing schedule and took him on daily outings. Thank you so much, it eased a lot of stress knowing someone who cares so much was looking after our family member. I’m sure Yoda can’t wait to come back.

I had a great experience with Sadie. She was very good with my cat Jonesey, responsible and responsive. Sadie updated me with Jonesey’s pictures and videos every other day to make sure that I knew her routine while I was gone. I would definitely love Sadie to take care of Jonesey again! Thank you!

Ron will be our go-to guy as long as he is willing to take our dog! Our dog is always so anxious before and after we leave. He was excited to run into Ron’s home and has been so relaxed ever since we picked him up.

Don is such a caring, thoughtful caregiver for our dog. He is incredibly professional, accommodating, and just a great guy. When our dog is with Don we know he is in great hands and that we don't have to worry about a thing.

So glad I found Ashley to watch my cat while I was out of town! She helpfully offered to do a meet & greet, she's clearly thoughtful and attentive with the pets she watches. I got regular updates while I was out of town and I felt comfortable leaving my cat with her, and I think he had a good time there. Definitely I'd recommend Ashley as a sitter.

Awesome. Great communication and my dog seemed quite happy and well cared for throughout her stay. Will definitely look to repeat book with Lisa. Some rover people look to book as many dogs at once as possible and my dog is more a people person so I really appreciated knowing numerous dogs unknown to my dog would NOT be joining throughout the stay. Lisa has a lovely home and neighborhood and Lola got lots of lovely neighborhood walks.

Dawn did a great job of making Maggie a part of her family. Maggie is a velcro dog and I was concerned about leaving her for an extended time. We have only left her occasionally for about four hours at a time. Maggie found a home away from home. She loved playing with Dawn's dogs and meeting Dawn's daughters. Dawn was great about sending photos and videos daily so I knew Maggie was in a good place. Thank you Dawn for taking such good care of Maggie!

Excellent service! Katherine watched my kitty while I was away for a little over a week. She doesn’t have extended rates, and her devotion to your pet is amazing! My little Salem was welcomed in her home and got plenty of care and attention, I got many pictures each day. She’s quick and efficient to reply, I loved her service. If the chance comes up, I will be booking with her again (if she isn’t already booked to full capacity!)

Eve gave me a lot of confidence at our meet and greet that she is a responsible long-time dog parent. As a boarder, Eve was communicative and caring, sent lots of photos and updates, and was very attentive and available. Eve was around most days to spend with my dog, this was the situation my dog really needs. Eve was sitting for my dog during a snowstorm and the bad ice storm and sent me updates about this, as well. She even gave my dog an oatmeal bath, which was above and beyond. When I came to pick up Sweetheart, it was clear they had really bonded. She didn't want to get in the car! Will book again.

Miranda and Marco are such amazing and caring dog people! Every time I drop off Bambino I know he is getting the best care possible! Lots of love, affection, and exercise. Bambino is a senior and has several medications he takes and Miranda and Marco have experience giving medications to senior dogs and giving them the extra senior care they need! I could not recommend them more!

Maggie is amazing, she is so sweet and took care of our dog Buddy really well. Buddy had fun playin with her dog Millie in all the videos and photos Maggie sent. I wish she was staying in Georgia so I could have her as our permanent Dogvacay place. Would love to leave Buddy with her if we visit New Orleans again.

Bee & John where great dog sitters! I got multiple photos of my pup while we where away, and that was amazing. They were really great at communicating and we could tell our pup was well taken care of. We where able to do a meet and greet before hand and both of our dogs got along swell. I would recommend using them as a dog sitter!

Rebecca is the only sitter I trust Stella with for an extended stay! She sent me frequent picture updates and I could tell she embraced Stella as part of her own pack, letting her sleep on the bed, giving her a take-home toy when she fell in love with a rubber chicken, even taking her to the Coast while I was away. So thankful we have Rebecca as Stella's sitter and boarder!

This was my first time leaving my pup for more than a night, and I was a nervous wreck! Justin was awesome, though, and made me feel so comfortable leaving my pup with him. Upon pickup, my (easily stressed) pup seemed relaxed and happy, so I know Justin was good to him! Highly recommend!
