“Katie and her family did a wonderful job of making our Stella feel at home. She kept us updated with pictures and texts the entire time. It made us feel good that they said they would miss her when she left. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“5 stars! Great communication from pre booking to drop off and continuing through pickup. Took great care of my 2 dogs, sent pictures and updates during their stay. Perfect sitter in a comfy home setting. Highly recommend”
“Doug is a very thoughtful and kind sitter. He took excellent care of my elderly puppy and kept me updated on how she was doing. I am very thankful that he was able to take care of her while we were away!”
“This was such a great experience for our family! We always have tears when we leave Toby for boarding, but Savannah made everyone feel so happy and comfortable as soon as we met her and dropped him off! We received pictures all weekend and knew he was getting loved on and having a great time! We will definitely be doing this from now on!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
“Opal was incredible and I will definitely use her services when going out of town again! My sweet dog is 11 years old and has very bad arthritis but she took the best care of him and loved him like he was her own, and he had a great time! It’s so relieving when you find someone who will love and take care of your pet just as you do at home and will keep you updated with photos and videos each day. 5-stars!”
“Tatiana was awesome! I got lots of updates with pictures and videos and communication and I knew my Daisy was in good hands! Daisy had so much fun playing and she got lots of cuddles. We will definitely book again!”
“They took great care of my Aussiedoodle. He looked so happy in every photo. She sent plenty of photos and him and each photo had a little blurb of how he was doing. It was very cute! I would totally trust them again with him. It makes it more enjoyable for him that they have their own dogs as well. I know he enjoyed playing with them.”
“Kyler is wonderful with our two English Bulldogs. She sends lots of updates and pictures and is super accommodating. We’ve used her twice and plan on using her again when we travel! Our boys love her and seem to make themselves at home in her care. Thank you!”
“Great communication and was amazing with my dogs! My husky is usually very stubborn and doesn’t eat much when I’m not around, but he did this time. It was also my puppy’s first time away from me and it went so well. I also loved that there was a huge backyard for my boys to run around in, so they were nice and tired as I unpacked from my trip. Would definitely recommend and rebook!”
“First time using rover. Danielle was great and very accommodating. You could tell she wanted to make sure owners are updated on their pet and gave a review of the stay on pickup.”
“Jonathan and his family were great! We will definitely be requesting them as a new regular. Very friendly, helped us out and allowed us to extend our boarding for an additional night at last minute, sent updates and pictures, and made sure our dog had plenty of exercise!”
“Wade & Morgan were fantastic hosts for our dog Boone over Memorial Day Weekend. Boone had a ball playing with their dog Atlas for 3 days. Wade and Morgan sent pictures and provided updates everyday. Would highly recommend!”
“Kimberley was awesome! She was very accommodating and understanding of our older dog’s transition to a new area and home. Maddie loved her spacious backyard and her new friends, Sampson and Stokely. Maddie can’t wait for us to need Kimberley’s services again!”
“This was our first time using Jordyn since moving to the area and she was amazing! She communicated with us and sent pictures daily and put us at ease with leaving our dog. We will absolutely be using Jordyn again in the future. I highly recommend her!”

“Kate did an excellent job taking care of our cats while we were out of town. She kept us updated throughout our trip with informative messages and gave our pets plenty of extra love and attention during each visit. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. We would absolutely book with Kate again and highly recommend her!”
“Alana was perfect! So sweet to my kitties and respected their individual personalities. Sent me pictures every day and even brought my mail/packages inside and ran the vacuum. 10/10 would book again :) lovely person!”
“Claire was amazing with my babies!! She cared for them while I was away like they were her own. I came home to happy babies and all thanks to Claire!! I will absolutely book with her again 😻”
“Dana did a fantastic job taking care of my 2 cats. One of our cats has to take daily medication due to HCM (heart condition) and Dana was able to do that for us. We received daily photos. I worry about our pets when we are away in vacation (they are our babies) but Dana made us feel so comfortable knowing they were taken care of. She and her husband are both 10/5 star sitters! They’re both very friendly people. I highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Danielle is the best!! Our sweet kitties love her and she takes amazing care of them! We love having her sit for them because she’s so responsible and always sends us sweet updates which gives us peace of mind😊”
“Kyler did an amazing jobs with my furbabies. This was my first time to leave them with anyone other than family and I was so nervous. All three of my cats seemed to adore her and while happy to see me when I got home, were obviously not starved for attention, lol. Kyler sent lots of pics and updates which I really appreciated. Ty!”
“Jordan did a great job with my girls! She followed all instructions and even got my puppy to use the bathroom so I don’t have to worry about her in her kennel! She also brought in an Amazon package and put it on the stairs for me. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Abby is an absolute gem of a cat sitter. She took such thoughtful and attentive care of my cat, and it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which I really appreciated, and it was clear my cat was comfortable and well-loved in her care. She’s reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I would trust her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who goes above and beyond.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I currently have two rescue pups of my own. I totally understand each baby has unique needs to live their own best life. I work at an elementary school and am off each day by 3:30 and don’t work weekends so I can spend afternoons and weekends caring for your babies. I also live directly next to a dog park and am happy to take them for an afternoon play! I have spent many years pet sitting in other people’s homes and am used to all different living situations for animals. I have crate trained my own dogs so can assist with that process, as well as take your baby on familiar walks and play time.
“Courtney always takes great care of my cats! They are very picky with people and have really warmed up to her! She's wonderful with animals, very communicative, and sends lovely kitty cat reports.”
“Sara came through for a last minute kitty reservation! I have a problem pee-er and she handled it all so great! Everything was taken care of when we got back. Would use again! So reliable. Even brought in unexpected packages. Thanks!”
“Marilyn was fantastic! Everything was clean when we got home and she sent lots of pictures to me which was very reassuring. The cats got lots of love and care from Marilyn and seemed very happy.”
“Jessica was so good with my cat Nova! She was very responsive and made sure to send me lots of pictures. She was thorough and willing to do more than what was asked of her. I would book her again!”
“Gennifer was great! I highly recommend her. She was timely, responsible, and always prompt in her communications with me. You will be very pleased with any service she provides you and your pets.”
“Amy was great and made our kitties very happy while we were gone. She communicated with me every visit and sent multiple pics as well. Came home to clean litter boxes, fresh food and water, and 2 happy cats. Will definitely use Amy again and would highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have been caring for pets since I was about 10 years old. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as the dogs and cats of family and friends, and I genuinely love getting to know every animal’s unique personality. I currently have 4 cats and 1 dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable with both dogs and cats and understand that every pet has different routines, personalities, and needs. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat needs some company while you’re away, or your pet simply needs someone to stop by, give them attention, and make sure everything is taken care of, I’m happy to help. My goal is simple: I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away.
“Loved Tanya and would use again! My cat's food, water, and litter was all good, and she apparently even cleaned up a mess my cats had made of some bread I forgot to put away according to my neighbor/grandmother (sorry about that, by the way!)”

“My babies came home fully intact! No parts missing lol! Jessica was a great host for my children. She sent updates throughout the day along with photographs. From the moment I dropped them off I was confident I had chosen the right person for the task. She is a pleasant human with a big heart. Yep, my babies came home just as I dropped them off, happy and all parts intact! Thank you Jessica!”
“Kyler is an exceptional doggy-whisperer and caretaker, and she has been a tremendous resource for taking care of my pup with both sitting and boarding services. She is incredibly easy to work with, always thoroughly communicative, extremely accommodating and, without a doubt, well-knowledgeable and experienced in what she does. My pup is always happy and exhausted after time with Kyler, and I'm always at ease knowing that she will be well taken care of in Kyler's company. The praise in this review is absolutely well-deserved!”
“This Riley's first stay with Breanna and Jason and it was a big hit 😀 Riley came home happy and tired 🤗 I will say that Breanna and Jason have a very handsome Golden of their own that might have influenced Riley's attitude 😉 Both of the hoomans were kind, courteous and flexible with my plans and took time to properly introduce my Riley to their home and see that she was well cared for. We look forward to seeing Breanna and Jason and family again soon 😊”
“I cannot say enough good about Savannah! She is an absolutely amazing caretaker. She treated my little girl like she was her own. If I could give her 10 out of 5 stars I would.”
About: With over 16 years of experience in animal care, I bring a strong background in both small and large animals, including horses, livestock, and dogs. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics and dog boarding facilities, which gave me hands-on experience with animals of all temperaments and needs. While I value the structure of those settings, I believe in-home care is the most comfortable and stress-free option for most pets. I currently care for two dogs and two horses of my own, and I approach every client’s animal with the same level of respect, patience, and attentiveness I give my own. House Sitting Availability: I’m available for overnight care only, providing feeding, walks, and supervision during the night hours. Drop-In Visits Availability: I can provide up to two drop-in visits per day, including feeding, potty breaks, and basic care. In home boarding : I live in an apartment with a fenced deck, have two friendly dogs, and kids aged 3 and 8. I provide plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I never board more than one family at a time, so your pup gets all the care and attention they need while you’re away. I prioritize safety and trust above all else when caring for pets in your home. Creating a calm, secure environment is essential to help your pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I treat your home and pets with the same respect and care I would expect for my own!
“I reached out to Mrs. Kim on very short notice after my dog sitter bailed on me days prior to a week long vacation I had scheduled. Mrs.Kim was very accommodating with my request. She does frequent updates and made my baby a part of her pact, and now my dog loves it there! 100% recommend Mrs. Kim and her family and will be using her again and again !”
“Jennifer was the absolute best with my fur baby Bentley!! He had so much fun playing with her fur babies he slept so good the next day! I was so impressed with her services I asked if she could keep my human babies! lol Will definitely use her again!”
“We were planning to leave our pups in a large kennel outside because we were only taking a day trip. Last minute, I feel that it is going to be too cold for me to be comfortable leaving them outside. David agreed to take them last minute, easing my concerns. We felt our pups were well cared for during their time with David. He kept us updated on them settling in. He sent us a video of our pups outside, behaving as they would if they were home. All of David's interactions with us during their stay allowed us to enjoy time with our family without concern. We are also sitters so, the fact that I would highly recommend David should speak volumes.”
About: 30 years of experience having dogs & cats as part of the family. Now passing my love of caring for animals down to my daughters & they want to help care for as many as possible. We are available for boarding, drop-in visits, dog walking, doggie daycare, & more. I am currently a homeschool mom and have a very flexible schedule. We will be as accommodating as possible for your pets individual needs & treat them as part of our family. We have a huge fenced in back yard. Two girls that love animals more than anything in life. Your dog will have fun and be well cared for while you are out of town! We will send you pictures and updates during your time away. And I can easily crate your dog if needed, (but will only if you do this at home).
“Doug did a great job taking care of our dog, Paisley! We were visiting family and needed a sitter in a pinch (during a holiday weekend no less) and Doug was super quick to respond and help us out. He provided nice updates with photos, and it was clear Paisley had a great time and was well taken care of. He even took the extra effort to replace her ball when she lost it the bushes while playing outside. Would definitely use Doug again.”
About: I have taken care of pets, not only cats and dogs, since I was a young child. I thoroughly enjoy seeing to their needs and providing them the love and care they need!

“Lawden is amazing! Zeus loves her and loves going over to her house to play. It’s so reassuring to know my pup gets the same love and and affection and correction 😅 he would get at home. Lawden provides a safe and stimulating and social environment for Zeus and he loves going to see her!”
About: I was trained how to train dogs at an early age after our first dog was trained by our breeder. Since then I trained 2 golden retrievers and an Australian Cattle dog (red heeler). Both breeds are strong willed and have high energy. I work from home and so have a lot of freedom to break away to take care of dogs. I enjoy taking care of dogs and sharing the knowledge from my experience of training and raising dogs. I have a large beautiful fenced yard, have multiple crates for use and live within walking distance of a dog park. I have kids that will make sure your dog gets lots of love while being boarded.

About: Growing up, I always had several dogs in my home, and have even adopted two of my own. Over the years I’ve gained a lot of experience working with hundreds of animals with a wide range of breeds and pets of all ages and sizes. I have experience taking care of dogs anywhere from feeding to walking to playing (etc) for any age range and any size. As mentioned in the title, I have experience working at Birmingham’s local Humane Society and in that time learned a lot about animal behavior. This will help me ensure an animal’s comfort level, safety and trust during my time caring for them. I believe the key to taking care of animals is showing them genuine love and patience. I love animals and do this work to make some money on the side, but also because it brings me so much joy! All pets are considered family, so it’s guaranteed to treat them as such. Your pet’s happiness and safety are top priority so I aim to create a fun and stress free environment for everyone. I’m currently working side hustle jobs that give me the benefit of working with a very flexible schedule. Whatever your needs will be for me to properly care for for animals will be easily catered to during my time caring for your pet/pets. During my stay at a client’s home, I will be able to cater to the pet’s regular routine. I also am comfortable and experienced giving dogs medication if they are on a vet prescribed medicine. I am happy to discuss any needs of the household and go over any expectations of my tile in your space.
“My dog, Bella, had a blast. She was happy and tired when she got home from Kellie playing with her outdoors. You will definitely be happy leaving your pet with her. Bella will be returning. Thanks Kellie.”
About: I cared for my family dog for 9 amazing years, giving me firsthand experience with senior care from administering meds to making sure older pups stay comfortable and happy. I’ve also had plenty of experience with small breeds and understand their unique needs. I’m not just here to watch your pet I’m here to understand them. I’ve worked with puppies needing basic training, senior dogs who need a little extra care, and even pets who are a bit anxious or shy. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply being a calm companion, your furbaby will be treated like family because that’s exactly what they deserve. I'm mostly working from home, so I'm basically always at home. Pretty flexible with my time as well, so I should be able to keep an eye with your babies. I have a fenced backyard and pet friendly house. I always make sure everything is clean and avoiding anything that can be chew or swallowed
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my deep understanding and love for animals. I believe that pets are not just animals but they are members of the family. Therefore, I treat them with the same care and respect as their owners would. I stay home most of the day so the pet is not left alone for any extended amount of time and if I am not home then they will be in the area I keep my dogs. Firstly, I ensure that pets have access to clean water and food at all times. Secondly, they should be given regular exercise and playtime as per their breed and age requirements. Thirdly, it is crucial to maintain good hygiene by keeping their living space clean and grooming them regularly.

“Danielle is so great! She accepted my last minute request & walked my two pups in this cold, December weather. She so sweet to them & gave them some love afterwards & took multiple photos.😊 I can tell my dogs liked her a lot.🐾”
About: My first friend was an old bulldog mastiff. My next one was a jack russell terrier. The list went on and on until I graduated college and took in my first little mutt. I've always had dogs, I've always found companionship and comfort in their presence. Growing up along side them, I've learned a lot about their behaviors. Just like people, every dog is so different! And it is such an exciting adventure to get to meet a new one and learn about them! If I walk your dog or do a drop in visit, know that I am devoted to making them as happy as possible! My senior chihuahua is blind and most owners don't allow another dog to be brought, so that is why I can't offer overnight stays. (If you are not most owners, feel free to message me and we can arrange a sleepover!) I also have an older boxer mix who is an awesome walking buddy if you don't mind. Other than my dogs, my current schedule is completely open to whatever needs you have for caring for your dog. I always respect the space I am in. "Leave it how you found" it is my motto. I like to spend a lot of time outdoors, and that means keeping a watchful eye at all times!
“Was super helpful and responsive while taking care of our two dogs!! Was able to adjust her schedule when i was called into work early. Our doggos loved Ms Jessie ♥️”
About: I’m 27 years old and work part time from home as an accountant! I have a lot of availability and time to spend with your pet! I have always loved animals especially dogs! I have cared for dogs of all ages from 6 weeks old to 15 years old. My childhood dog who passed away a few years ago lived until he was 15 years old. He was blind and deaf at the end of his life and required many medications and overall care. I was the sole caretaker for him so I have years of experience of older dog care, no matter what that entails. I now have a 6 year old dog that I rescued at 6 weeks old so I definitely have experience at the other end too! I can bring my dog to your house if your animals like to have a friend to play with or I can leave her at home! I can taylor to any of your dogs needs. I can run or play fetch with them or just give them some much needed loving and belly rubs. I have many years of experience house sitting and watching neighbors dogs. I also worked at a doggie daycare and boarding facility overseeing 30+ dogs at a time. I have experience with all shapes and sizes and that is what I look forward to most. Meeting all new pups with all different needs and personalities! I take my own dog for multiple walks per day and I work from home! I have lots of availability so I can spend most of my time with them! I can taylor to any of your dogs needs. I have lots of time to spend with them and want to make you and them feel comfortable!
About: I’ve owned animals for most of my life, dogs for 12 years, generally 1-3 at a time. Through caring for my own dogs, I’ve gained experience with feeding schedules, administering medication, walks, basic grooming, basic training, and noticing when something seems off. I recognize every dog has different personalities and energy levels and routines that are important. I believe pets deserve kindness, consistency, and attention, and I will care for your pets the same way I’d want mine to be taken care of. I work from home full time, so I can easily accommodate most schedules/times and every day of the week. I’m more of a night owl but can definitely figure out what will work best for you and me and your pet! I have a fenced in yard, we have 3 dogs in the home, who are playful and dog friendly. If you prefer them to be crated at night especially in a new strange place that is easily accommodated. Whatever you do with your pets I will do my best to replicate to keep them feeling comfortable and at home! I have no problem with communication via text/call about or during visits, and am happy to send update photos each day!
About: My husband and I have grown up with various dog breeds, different sizes, different ages, & different personalities. And we love them all! I have the position to be with them all day & night. With owner's permission we have a fenced in dog park for them to play and potty! I currently work remote, therefore I am able to be with them throughout the day/night. Plenty of opportunities to potty, eat, drink, snuggle, and play! My husband and I leave in a two story townhouse. We have two friendly dogs ages 8 & 5 and would love to have a buddy! We have a walking path to walk. We have a fenced in dog park very close to our home.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since COVID. I’ve pet sat and house sat for many other pet owners in the past. I have lot of experience with cats and dogs since I currently have four cats and two dogs. I have experience with pets with health problems as one of my cats is prone to UTIs. Im currently a stay at home girlfriend who just focuses on renovating our home with various house projects, playing and taking care of our lil zoo, and works on mysmall business. Since I do everything for myself, my partner, or our animals I have a very flexible schedule. I am clean and tidy and more than happy to adhere to any rules that pet parents might have. If walks or potty breaks are needed I’m more than happy to get out stretch my legs and can even offer playtime for dogs or cats who think they’re dogs.
“I’m late leaving a review but this lady deserves getting a STELLAR review!! Please, please select her. Not only is she great with dogs, she comes prepared & is totally committed to the love and care for your dog. Best of all if she can’t make a walk she has her own back up!!! You don’t have to scramble to find one for a random day (which isn’t easy). If Hilda and Django were still living in my home, I would still be using her services.”
About: Hi, my name is Maddie! I have been working with dogs & cats for over 4 years now, and I have owned dogs and cats my entire life! I’m very experienced with handling all ages of dogs from puppies to seniors! I have a deep love for all animals, and I promise to take excellent care of your furry friends! I am completely free Monday-Wednesday, but I work 8am-7pm Thursday-Sunday, so I can’t do mid day drop ins/walks on those days, but I am still available for house sitting for any day of the week. We can come up with a schedule together so that your pet gets everything that they need! I can easily crate your furry friend if needed! I will follow owners instructions on feeding, walking, medication, or anything else that your pup needs!
About: I’m 39 years old and there has been a pet in my life since I was 7. I’m an only child and my pets quickly became like siblings (we didn’t fight like them, promise). I became the primary caregiver for my mom’s two senior mini dachshunds a few years ago and was able to get them crate and pee-pad trained. One of them crossed the rainbow bridge sadly, but my other little old lady is doing well. I fall in love with every animal I see and I would love the chance to fall in love with yours. I’m currently working a full time second shift job (1pm-11pm) so I have the mornings completely open to check on your babies. I’m also a night owl and have no problem doing a nighttime check after work or begin an overnight stay. If you have a fenced yard, I will let them outside and let them do their business before tossing a ball or toy or running around with them to get the zoomies out. If no yard, then I will take them out on a leash for a walk then some playtime inside. Food and water will be checked and refilled; cuddles will be provided at will. :)
“Highly recommend Jamie. She stepped in while I was recovering from knee surgery and walked Pippa every day. She is dependable, on time, friendly and communicates well. Pippa was always excited to see Jamie when she came.”

“Jessica has been absolutely amazing from day 1. She's always gone above and beyond for my pup. She goes out of her way to take a ton of pictures, and always keeps me in the loop. It is so appreciated. I will definitely re-book”
About: I have 2 labs that have been a member of our family for 15 years. I also volunteer at the shelby co. humane society and the birmngham zoo. I understand why most people do not board with a vet and I feel the same way. My animals always have less stress and handle the seperation from human members alot easier. your furry family members are very important an I could not agree more. The dog park is one of our fovorite places.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I recently moved to Alabama from Virginia, and I had to leave behind my four dogs. I miss them so much! I currently work part-time at Salon 43 One, but I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. I recently moved to Alabama and miss my fur babies so much, so I would love the opportunity to care for other people’s pets and get my animal fix! I can do dog walking, or drop in visits. Just provide the instructions & details and we’ll go from there! I will provide updates and picture of your fur baby too!

“Katie and her family did a wonderful job of making our Stella feel at home. She kept us updated with pictures and texts the entire time. It made us feel good that they said they would miss her when she left. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
“This was such a great experience for our family! We always have tears when we leave Toby for boarding, but Savannah made everyone feel so happy and comfortable as soon as we met her and dropped him off! We received pictures all weekend and knew he was getting loved on and having a great time! We will definitely be doing this from now on!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”
“Opal was incredible and I will definitely use her services when going out of town again! My sweet dog is 11 years old and has very bad arthritis but she took the best care of him and loved him like he was her own, and he had a great time! It’s so relieving when you find someone who will love and take care of your pet just as you do at home and will keep you updated with photos and videos each day. 5-stars!”
“Tatiana was awesome! I got lots of updates with pictures and videos and communication and I knew my Daisy was in good hands! Daisy had so much fun playing and she got lots of cuddles. We will definitely book again!”
“They took great care of my Aussiedoodle. He looked so happy in every photo. She sent plenty of photos and him and each photo had a little blurb of how he was doing. It was very cute! I would totally trust them again with him. It makes it more enjoyable for him that they have their own dogs as well. I know he enjoyed playing with them.”
“Kyler is wonderful with our two English Bulldogs. She sends lots of updates and pictures and is super accommodating. We’ve used her twice and plan on using her again when we travel! Our boys love her and seem to make themselves at home in her care. Thank you!”
“Great communication and was amazing with my dogs! My husky is usually very stubborn and doesn’t eat much when I’m not around, but he did this time. It was also my puppy’s first time away from me and it went so well. I also loved that there was a huge backyard for my boys to run around in, so they were nice and tired as I unpacked from my trip. Would definitely recommend and rebook!”
“First time using rover. Danielle was great and very accommodating. You could tell she wanted to make sure owners are updated on their pet and gave a review of the stay on pickup.”
“Jonathan and his family were great! We will definitely be requesting them as a new regular. Very friendly, helped us out and allowed us to extend our boarding for an additional night at last minute, sent updates and pictures, and made sure our dog had plenty of exercise!”
“Wade & Morgan were fantastic hosts for our dog Boone over Memorial Day Weekend. Boone had a ball playing with their dog Atlas for 3 days. Wade and Morgan sent pictures and provided updates everyday. Would highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using Jordyn since moving to the area and she was amazing! She communicated with us and sent pictures daily and put us at ease with leaving our dog. We will absolutely be using Jordyn again in the future. I highly recommend her!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I cannot say enough good things about our pet sitter Carson. She was perfect for us and our pet babies and from the very beginning of the process she was great. She was quick to respond to my initial message and she was informative and accommodating. She welcomed our babies into her home and sent us pictures and texts to let us know they were doing well which was so nice. She even went above and beyond when my flight home was going to make me late for our pickup time and was so helpful and accommodating! Overall, it was one of the best experiences with pet sitting/ boarding that we’ve ever had. Carson, thank you much for taking care of our babies! You don’t know how nice it was to know that they were being loved while we were away. And thank you so much for the pictures and for always reaching out to ask me questions about them. I hope they were good for you and that are invited back again because you guys were so wonderful and a godsend. Thank you again!!!! 💕”
“I gave a 5 star review, solely, based on how our baby hollered with his mouth wide open when it was time to go. We have never heard him wail like this ever before. He truly enjoyed himself. Thank you for taking such good care of our baby. He is still catching up on rest the following day. He was worn slap out! ❤️✅🎉”
“Cannot say enough good words!! Laura loved on my puppies and sent me pictures and kept me so in the loop while they were there💕 would absolutely use again next time we are in the area for travel! Thank you so much again for taking care of my fur babies!”
“Marilyn is a fantastic pet sitter—friendly, very accommodating with last-minute changes, and clearly cares a lot for the animals in her care. She took great care of our pup and we definitely recommend her services!”
