“Juneau had a blast with Lety and Mason. I appreciated the frequent photos and videos updating me on all of Juneau’s adventures throughout the weekend. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Juneau again!”
“Zac was awesome! I like that he took a personal interest in Spot's well being during his stay at Zac's home.....I highly recommend Zac for any Rover.com customer!!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I dropped off my dog, Sugar, with Cody, and let me explain what “Sugar” is dealing with. Sugar is a tiny white cockapoo whose greatest natural predator is…existing. She’ll hear a leaf land three houses away and immediately file an insurance claim. She has been startled by her own reflection, a pillow, and once spent five minutes suspicious of a decorative pumpkin. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So naturally, I was thinking, “There’s no way this dog survives being around another dog and a cat.” Wrong. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cody has this supernatural calm that apparently extends to terrified fluff balls. His dog was basically like, “Hey, you wanna hang out?” Sugar answered in her native language, which is silent panic. His dog didn’t care. She just kept being cool until Sugar realized nobody was trying to assassinate her. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Then there’s the cat. Most cats look at a nervous little dog like they’re planning a documentary called How Easy Would It Be? Cody’s cat was just…chill. At one point I think the cat judged me more than it judged Sugar. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ By the end of the stay, Sugar was wandering around like she paid the mortgage. She actually looked relaxed. Relaxed! This is a dog who’s emotionally overwhelmed by a ceiling fan. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I don’t know what Cody does. Maybe he whispers affirmations. Maybe he has Disney-princess powers. Maybe his dog is running some kind of emotional support operation and the cat is HR. Whatever it is, it works. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I picked Sugar up happy, safe, exhausted from actually having fun instead of rehearsing imaginary disasters. Cody sent updates, took amazing care of her, and somehow convinced the canine equivalent of an anxious Victorian ghost that life isn’t one long emergency. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If your dog is confident, Cody will probably make them happier. If your dog is like Sugar and thinks gravity is a personal attack, Cody is basically a miracle worker. Ten out of ten. Would absolutely trust him again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sugar probably still doesn’t trust the vacuum, but that’s between her and her therapist. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ~Christine and David”
“We are so very happy with the care that Diane has given our dog Lola We came on to a very very happy dog lots of pictures of what was going on we are sure going to be using Diane in the future would like to thank her for her personal care of our dog Lola”
“Edith was an amazing last-minute host this past holiday weekend. Right off the bat she showed an incredible amount of care and attentiveness for our pups. Throughout their stay she was extremely communicative and flexible. Glad to have found another first-class sitter on Rover!”
“Second time my dog Olivia has been in Bobby’s care. Seems like she is very chirpy and comfortable. I have a feeling she is happy there :) Asked Bobby to send me a few photos and updates while I was away and he responded immediately.”
“Kirsten was great!! She was kind and communicative by sending me pics/vids with updates and was very reassuring as it was my first time having my boy away from home. I would definitely trust her to watch him again, 10/10”
“Kazue was amazing! We left for a 7 day cruise with limited access to our phones. It was nice to come back to our phone with lots of pictures and updates about Potato. Being away from our dog for over a week, we knew he was in great care. Thank you!!”
“Tammy was an absolute blessing for our dogs while we were away. From the start, she was incredibly flexible and understanding, which immediately put us at ease. It was clear how loving, attentive, and thoughtful she was with our dogs, and how seriously she took their individual needs and routines. Being miles away is never easy when you love your dogs as much as we do, but Tammy made the entire experience feel comfortable and reassuring. I could truly tell that our dogs were not just being watched, but genuinely cared for. That peace of mind is priceless. If you are looking for a sitter who is kind, dependable, and deeply attentive, Tammy is someone you can trust wholeheartedly. Knowing there are wonderful sitters like her out there makes future travel feel so much easier, and she will absolutely be our first choice again. We love Tammy!”
“I really appreciated that I received a lot of photos and updates ,it made me feel more at ease leaving my dog. Grisel did a great job easing my dog's separation anxiety. I probably will recommend her to my friends and relatives needing a dog sitter.”
“This was Lilo’s third stay at Marilee’s place! Ever since we found her, we have not taken Lilo anywhere else to petsit or board! We just know that Lilo is well cared for and loved when she stays over with Marilee. We love seeing all the picture updates Marilee sends us, not only does Lilo look like she’s having a good time, but it puts us at ease!”
“Erin is amazing! She’s been our go to sitter. One of our pups has anxiety when it comes to fireworks/firecrackers. She let him sleep in bed with her until he calmed down and fell asleep. We love Erin!”
“I just can’t say enough nice things about Jared and Andy. They take such wonderful care of our little pup and are great about sending daily pictures of what they’ve been up to. I feel lucky we found them!!!”
“My dog is aging and becoming physically frailer such that I’ve become much more picky about who I leave him with. Cedric is clearly kind and patient, manages his dogs and home in a safe manner, and sent plenty of pictures to put my mind at ease. Will be sending my old man to spend time with him again.”
“Martha was awesome! Very attentive and caring. Kept in contact to let me know how Angel was adjusting. And sent pictures which reassured me that she is definitely an animal lover 🩷🩷🩷”
“Rachel & Jason were friendly, responsive, great communicators, and definitely dog lovers. I received daily pictures of my dog when I was away and didn't have any concerns or issues. I will definitely use them again as our dogsitter.”
About: I have experience with many different types of animals. I have cats, dogs, a snake, a lizard, snails, and fish. I also lived on a farm and have experience with farm animals. I am good at training dogs and have experience with animal's medication management. My dog has an anxiety disorder, and one of my cats had an intense medical scare which required medication three times a day. Work to provide the best for all my animals, and I'll work to provide the best for yours as well. I currently work part-time during the days. There is never a time where my house is unsupervised for more than a few hours at a time to go out and eat or run errands. With my dogs, I typically crate them when I leave to prevent them from causing problems like digging in the trash, but that is up to your discretion for your animal. I live in a house in a nice, quiet neighborhood. I have a fenced in yard that my two dogs frequently run around in. I have a small inflatable pool for the animals to play in during the heat. I will take care to attend to each animal's individualized needs, so if your dogs needs to be crated at certain times or has specific triggers please let me know.
“Cynthia was great with Benji! She communicated well, sent pictures and updates throughout the day, and was very professional and kind. I felt confident that Benji was in good hands. I definitely recommend her and would book with her again!”
About: I’ve dedicated my life to caring for animals with the same love and attention we give to family. With years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and needs—from puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring special attention. I have also rescued and rehabilitated dogs and cats, ensuring they received the care, grooming, and affection needed to thrive before finding their forever homes. I’m currently available throughout the week and offer flexible scheduling to meet your pet’s needs. Beginning August 22, I’ll be attending college, so there will be certain days and times when I have classes. Outside of my class schedule, I’m committed to providing dependable care and will communicate my availability clearly to ensure we find a schedule that works well for you and your pet. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or weekend services, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, loving, and family-oriented environment where pets receive plenty of attention and care. My home includes my 3-year-old daughter, 7-month-old son, one friendly small dog, and three cats, so I ask that any pets staying with us are comfortable around children and other animals. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines, and I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family.
“Lisa and Brent were absolutely wonderful! I think my dog Onyx was living his best life with them. They took him on several walks and sent photos everyday to let me know how he was doing. He is older and is on 2 medications. They had no problem giving him those. I will definitely contact them again.”

“Markita was so sweet to my cat, Comet, and ensured she was comfortable while we were out of town. Markita was able to administer Comet’s medication. Thank you, Markita!”
“This is our 3rd time booking Jazmine. I had no doubts during the 3 weeks she was doing 2x a day visits for our 4 cats that she was doing an amazing job taking care of our kitties! She spent plenty of time playing with them, cleaning their litterbox and water fountain, and also went above and beyond with keeping our home tidy while we were away. One of our new cats is really shy but warmed up to Jazmine and started playing! When we had an ant infestation, she was willing to come during the times our pest control could make it so she could help make sure the cats were put away. I’m so glad we found Jazmine and have someone we know we can trust to provide great care to our cats when we’re away! It’s always such a relief coming home with everything taken care of and happy cats. Will definitely continue rebooking, thanks Jazmine!”
“Ella did a fantastic job with pet sitting for our cat Patch this past weekend. My husband and I went away to celebrate his birthday and were so lucky to have someone as wonderful as Ella to take care of our baby while we were gone. She was on time everyday (even early!!) fed him, did his litter, played with him, and sent us pictures every visit also! She also is very quick with answering messages which is a huge plus. Patch is usually very shy and timid with new people but with Ella he was so outgoing and seemed very comfortable with her, that made us so happy to see. Ella would get more than 5 stars if we could, she is the perfect person to trust your pets with, we definitely will be rebooking with her in the future!! Thank you so much Ella, you are the best!”
“As a first time rover user, I was worried about the process and my cat and home's safety. Jenna was amazing and totally worth the book of faith. She was prompt, communicated well, and even helped me navigate the app. 10/10, will book again!”
“had a great experience working with Shang over a two week period. She walked and fed my dogs with so much care and reliability. I even had an “oops” moment where I mistakenly thought a day was booked when it wasn’t, and she was incredibly gracious and understanding when I reached out. Once we sorted out my mistake, she confirmed the remaining days and everything went smoothly. I truly appreciate her professionalism, kindness, and flexibility. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“I can't recommend Taviana enough as a cat sitter! She stayed at my house to take care of my cat, Simba, and she went above and beyond. Not only did she make sure Simba was well-fed, but she also spent quality time with him, giving him plenty of love and attention. When I came back, Simba was happy and calm, and my home was spotless. Taviana kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and attentive, Taviana is the perfect choice!”
“We adopted our 8-month-old kitties when they were 4 months old. They haven't been around other humans much other than us so I was concerned that they would be fearful of a cat sitter. Johnna was an excellent choice for us and them. She sent playful pictures and good notes. I felt at ease knowing they were in great hands with her. I am so grateful.”
“Holly took the best care of my two cats who both require meds in the mornings and evenings. She won over their hearts and trust so that insulin injections, pills and syringe meds all went well, with lots of snuggles and playtime. Thank you so much, Holly! 🐾🐾”
“5/5 Stars! I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care Hillary and her husband provided to my beloved dog, Taz! From the moment I dropped Taz off, I knew I was leaving him in capable and compassionate hands. Despite a few unexpected mishaps, including Taz's Houdini-like escape into a prepared crate in the house, Hillary and her husband handled the situation with professionalism and calm. They ensured Taz was safe, happy, and fed on time, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. What truly sets Hillary and her husband apart, however, is the genuine love and care they show to the dogs in their charge. It's clear they have a deep passion for animals and take the time to understand each dog's unique personality and needs. I highly recommend Hillary and her husband to anyone seeking top-notch pet care. They are trustworthy, reliable, and truly exceptional in every way. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Taz – I'm forever grateful!”
“I cannot say enough good things about my dog walker. He takes amazing care of my two big dogs — my little beasts — and handles them with confidence, calmness, and kindness. They absolutely adore him. He’s reliable, patient, and clearly experienced. I feel completely comfortable trusting him with my dogs, which is huge for me. Every walk is consistent, safe, and positive. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your pets and treats them like his own, he’s the one. Highly recommend!”
“We have had Elizabeth take care of our two kitties a few times now and has always done a fantastic job at watching over them. She provides plenty of thorough updates and photos of the kitties, letting us know they’re happy and healthy! Elizabeth goes above and beyond with caring for our kitties and we will continue to ask her for our cat sitting needs.”
“Brian is wonderful. My dogs love him. He gave them walks and sweet attention including wiping their little paws after walks. He was communicative throughout. I appreciate his care for my girls greatly.”
“Sonjia is amazing with my cat!! She is very kind, flexible, and wonderful to work with. She understands what it’s like to be away from your pet and takes the time to care for and play with them like they’re her own 🥹”
“Absolutely amazing! Being my first experience I was a little nervous but, immediately felt comfortable when I saw the way my dogs were around her. Pics and updates were great allowing me to feel free to enjoy my trip. 100% would recommend and do this again..”
“Heather was incredible to work with! Very kind, communicative, flexible, and understanding. She took great care of my cat through a drop-in service. My cat is shy and wary of new people but she was very good with making Martha feel cared for. I would definitely recommend her services!”

“We’ve booked Grisel several times and will continue to rebook! She has gone above and beyond to provide exemplary care for my Otter boy (lending him a doggy sweater when it’s cold outside and successfully flushing his eyes with his eye wash during allergy flare-ups). I can rest easy knowing that he is in her care.”
“Johnna took such great care of Luna. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We received pictures and updates that kept us feeling confident in her care. Thank you Johnna!”
“Daria went above and beyond by logging everything Juneau did for the day! She also sent photos and Juneau loves her so much which is a huge plus. When meeting Daria, she ran up to her and immediately became best friends with her! I will definitely consider reaching out to Daria again. Thank you!!”
“Pup came back happy and tired - perfect! Love that Tammy’s pups made Skye feel right at home. Tammy seemed to treat Skye like one of her own. Definitely appreciated that Tammy invited to come inside to see her home and meet her pups. I didn’t see any pictures during the day, but it sounds like everyone was too busy playing to take pics - and that’s great, too! Love that my puppy gets some socialization with other pups, and came home happy. Would def have Skye stay there again.”
“Matt was absolutely fantastic Very responsive and accommodating. Professional and friendly. Highly recommended Gerty & Wally we’re excited to play with Matt and his adorable dog Kobe. They were both happily exhausted when I picked them up. We will definitely rebook for future needs”
“Martha was very attentive with my dog Arthur! We had booked a daycare visit and will be using her again in May twice! She was very professional and was always keeping me updated with my dog. I love how detail oriented she was with always letting me know how Arthur was.”
“Ingrid watched our sweet Ruby last minute so my husband and I can spend the day together. Ruby returned home so happy and bummed to say bye to her new friends. We hope she’ll watch Ruby again.”
“Lety was very accommodating for a last minute request & when I needed to extend time for his care. As always Niko enjoys spending his day with Lety & his buddy Mason. Im very fortunate to find such a caring person to watch over Niko while I’m away.”
“Davis was flexible and allowed us to drop off Beryl earlier. He seems to be enjoying looking after pets. Our initial meet left a positive impression and we’ll definitely book again if we watch another event around Golden 1 stadium.”
“Cedric was amazing!!! Hands down the best doggy care one could ask for. He consistently kept me updated about what they had done for the day. Thank you again Cedric!!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Leslie. She is the perfect dog sitter. Leslie was so kind and patient with my very sweet but somewhat timid little maltipoo. She has her home set up perfectly for dog care and is very flexible in meeting the needs of the dogs she watches. Her back yard is lovely and very secure. I highly recommend her.”
About: 🐾 My Pet Care Experience I’ve had a dog by my side for my entire life until recently, so caring for dogs has always been a natural and important part of my life. Over the years, I’ve experienced the day-to-day responsibilities that come with being a dog owner—from feeding and walks to playtime, exercise, grooming, medications, and simply recognizing when a dog needs some extra attention or reassurance. Having dogs for so many years has taught me that every dog has their own personality, habits, and needs. Some are energetic and ready to play, while others are happiest getting some attention and curling up nearby. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog and following the routine their family has established. Most importantly, I understand that leaving your dog with someone else requires trust. I will treat your dog with the same patience, kindness, and care that I’ve given my own dogs throughout my life. My Availability Retirement gives me a very flexible schedule, which means I can devote plenty of time to your dog rather than trying to fit pet care around a full-time job. I’m generally available throughout the week and can often accommodate different schedules and routines. I’m happy to discuss your specific needs and find a schedule that works well for both you and your pup. I also understand that plans can change, so communication is important. If you have a specific schedule or timing requirement, just let me know when you reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate it. My goal is simple: **you enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and getting plenty of love and attention.** ❤️🐶 🛡️ Safety, Trust & Environment Your dog’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big deal, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, leash requirements, crate time, and anything else that helps your dog feel comfortable and secure. I also pay close attention to doors, gates, crates, and other potential escape risks. I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing in the backyard, or relaxing at home, I provide attentive and supervised care. If I care for your dog in your home, I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would expect someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure and leave your home just as I found it. Most importantly, I believe trust is earned. I’ll communicate with you, keep you updated, and make sure you feel confident knowing your dog is in good hands. 🐾❤️

“Brittany is amazing! For one, she is very flexible and has been a life saver with squeezing in last minute walks for my dog, Frosty 🐾 but most importantly I can tell Frosty genuinely has a great time with Brittany. Nothing better than receiving photo updates of Frosty and seeing that he is happy and comfortable around Brittany 😊”
“We felt very comfortable with Marina taking our lil' Bruno on a walk. It's clear that she loves dogs! Looking forward to more walks, and some boarding days too! Thank you!”
“Tatjana was really fantastic with my dog. She took her time to get to know my dog during the meet and greet. She has an understanding of dogs and what they need. Definitely recommend her and will be using her services again. Thank you so much.”
About: I've taken care of my dogs, friends' dogs, and house-sat for dog owners. I’m experienced with dogs of all energy levels and temperaments. I currently work Sunday through Wednesday, and I’m fully available Thursday through Saturday. On those days, I can give your pet my full attention and focus on their care, routine, and needs. On Sunday through Wednesday, I am available before 8 am and after 8 pm. I provide dog sitting and dog walking with a strong focus on safety, trust, and maintaining each dog’s normal routine. I am comfortable with small dogs and large dogs who need a lot of exercise.
“Scott was great! Kept me up to date on the puppies ealks, play dates and and I can see the doggies were happy after a day with him. Thank you so much! Would book again 100%”
“Alex and Lune become best friends very quickly. She was super attentive to his needs and communicated very well during her visit. She sent me so many pictures to show how happy Lune was during his walk and puzzle time. So thankful to have found a very kind person to take care of our sweet boy.”
“Oreo and I so appreciate Amanda and Hector’s help during these beginning weeks of the new school year! I know Oreo looks forward to going on his lunch potty breaks with Hector where he can sniff to his heart’s content. 🐕 💜 🥰 We truly appreciate Hector’s flexibility when he comes a bit earlier some days due to the hotter weather or Oreo’s needs. We will definitely be requesting Amanda & Hector again!”
About: What sets me apart is my experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I fostered puppies and adult dogs for four years, which gave me hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I also grew up with working dogs, so I am very comfortable handling high-energy breeds and understand the exercise, structure, and attention they require. Whether it's a playful puppy, an active working dog, or a senior pet needing extra patience and care, I adapt to each animal's individual needs. I am confident handling dogs on walks and prioritize safety, consistency, and positive interactions. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs as well :) I am a full time student looking to fill my summer by taking care pets instead of adopting more! I have extremely open availability, whatever your pet needs Ill be there. I wholeheartedly understand the anxiety and stress that can come with leaving your pet in someone else's care, I have those same feelings when it comes to my own pets. Because of that, I will treat your pet as if they were my own, providing them with the same love, attention, and care that I would expect for my animals. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness, along with your peace of mind, are always my top priorities. While I am caring for your pet, I will be readily available by text or phone and happy to provide updates, photos, and videos to help you feel connected and reassured while you're away. 🐾
“Shang was amazing with my dogs. She was always on time and communicated when she arrived at my house. One of my dogs requires more time to get comfortable with and Shang was very patient with him. She understood their own comfortability levels which allowed them to trust her. I can tell that the dogs are fond of her from the smiles in the photos she sends me! Shang is reliable, caring and I would recommend her to anyone looking for help with the pups!”
“Ella has been so helpful with our dog while my partner was out of the country and I was stuck working in office all week. She was always on time, provided pictures and feedback on the visit and more importantly, our little girl seems to love her company. A++++”
About: I have 2 years of hands-on experience caring for a dog I lived with in college, starting from when she was a puppy. She was very high-energy, so I’m comfortable with frequent walks, lots of playtime, and keeping dogs mentally and physically engaged. I helped with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and reinforcing training. I also took on full responsibility for her when my roommate was out of town, making sure she stayed on her routine and was well-exercised, safe, and happy. I work remotely during the week, which gives me lots of flexibility to provide pet care throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as walks, drop-ins, and weekend care. I can easily accommodate pets who need more frequent attention, potty breaks, or companionship during the day. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. Since I work remotely, I’m able to give more consistent supervision, attention, and timely potty breaks when needed. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), and home care. I make sure pets are secure on walks and always in a safe environment. I also pay close attention to behavior and energy levels—especially with high-energy dogs—to ensure they get the right balance of exercise and rest (as we all need!). I keep spaces clean, respect the home, and provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pet is in good hands.
About: While I specialize in cat sitting and absolutely adore caring for feline companions, I'm also happy to help with dog sitting for friendly, WELL-TRAINED SMALL PUPS. As a cat sitter first and foremost, I only accept ONE dog PER booking to ensure I can provide the best possible care and attention. Though I'm newer to dog care, I'm patient, attentive, and eager to provide a safe, calm environment for dogs who are easygoing and enjoy a relaxed routine. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure your pup feels comfortable and cared for while you're away. My heart is with cats, but I'm always happy to give well-mannered dogs the love and attention they deserve too! I'm currently open and have a flexible schedule, so I'm happy to work around your pet's unique needs whether it's regular visits or last-minute plans. Your pet's comfort and routine always come first. Because I may be caring for other pets throughout the day, I can't always guarantee an exact visit time. If your requested time is already booked, I'll reach out as soon as possible to see if there's a nearby time that works for you. If your pet needs medication or has a strict schedule, please let me know in your booking request so I can make sure I can accommodate their needs. I do require an in-person meet and greet before confirming any new booking. This helps ensure your pet feels comfortable and we're a great fit! As a proud cat mom, I care for my cats with a lot of love, patience, and attention to detail. Each of them has their own personality and needs, so I make sure their routines are consistent, their environment feels safe, and they get both playtime and quiet comfort. From feeding and litter box cleaning to brushing and cozy cuddle time, I treat them like family because to me, they are.

“Tammy was an absolute blessing for our dogs while we were away. From the start, she was incredibly flexible and understanding, which immediately put us at ease.

Outside of my class schedule, I’m committed to providing dependable care and will communicate my availability clearly to ensure we find a schedule that works well for you and your pet. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or weekend services, I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, loving, and family-oriented environment where pets receive plenty of attention and care. My home includes my 3-year-old daughter, 7-month-old son, one friendly small dog, and three cats, so I ask that any pets staying with us are comfortable around children and other animals. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and routines, and I treat every pet as if they were part of my own family.
“Becky was amazing, took great care of Onyx and Loki and they settled right in to her place as if it was their own. Our first time using Rover. Comforting to know your pups have a great place and great person who cares for your fur babies as much as Becky. She kept us up to date with photos, activities, and how they were on walks and playing. We will definitely look for Becky’s hospitality again.”
“Coryn is literally the best! Chiku gets so excited to see her and he gets so much playtime. I always feel safe and happy leaving Chiku with Coryn. She is also very flexible and communicative. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better to watch Chiku!”
“Tracy was amazing with Holly, and Holly came back home so happy after her visit there. Tracy gave Holly her meds as needed, lots of attention and pets. I would definitely leave Holly with her again.”
“We are so fortunate to have found Grant! He is an absolutely wonderful caretaker for our Great Dane! He spends a lot of time with the dogs, exercising them and taking really good care of them. Our favorite part about Riley going to " Camp Grant" is he sends us pictures or videos daily. Riley can't wait to go back!”
“Pranavi was wonderfully accommodating! We had several unexpected issues (on our end) that she was able to gracefully deal with, and we are very grateful to her for doing so. Our dog appeared to have had a wonderful time staying with her. This was our first time with Pranavi and we will gladly book again. Cheers!”
“Jeffrey and Jennifer were great with my pup. They gave me updates throughout his who stay and made me feel reassured that he was safe and cared for. Every picture they sent, he literally looked so happy lol. They were very flexible with drop off and pick up times as well :) would definitely book with them again”
“Jennifer took such wonderful care of our boy! We can’t recommend her enough. We got daily pictures and saw how much fun he was having - so much we almost thought he wouldn’t want to come back home! Thank you so much Jennifer”
“Sherri is fantastic. She is always very friendly to us and our pups. She takes care of our fur babies very well every time and they always love to see her! I definitely recommend her as your pet sitter as she will treat them as her own and treat them with loveand respect 🙂.”
“As a sitter myself, I really value someone who’s communicative, kind, and understanding, and Johnna is all of that and more. My dog is a little eccentric, and she was incredibly patient and attentive in learning her quirks, making sure her needs were met, and keeping us updated along the way. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again and truly appreciate her so much.”
“Regina’s did a great job taking care of Kobe. She sent me pictures and videos almost every day, and she even dropped him off at another dog sitter for me when I wasn't able to since I was out of town for two weeks.”
“Gaby was great with my boy, Jesse. I could tell in the pics and video updates she sent that he was having fun and when I picked him up after being gone 3 weeks, he was happy and well taken care of . Thanks for treating him like one of your own, Definitely the best sitter he has had, I will book with Gaby again in the near future. :)”
