“Shaun and Katie were amazing to work with! I received pictures almost daily of my two dogs and they always looked happy. They took them for walks and seemed to treat them as their own. One of my dogs gets anxious and licks her foot. Katie told me she wrapped her foot to help with the anxiety. It put me at ease knowing she was aware of what my dog was doing and took action to help her while I was gone. My flight home was delayed and Shaun and Katie were super understanding about keeping them another night. This was one less thing to stress over and I knew they were in good hands. This is my first time using Rover and I will definitely be having my pups stay with Shaun and Katie again!”
“Jenny and Remy were the best! They took such good care of Clyde & Franny! They got to play & got tons of snuggles. We got phots and videos (made this fur mamas heart so happy)!”
“Rachel was great about giving me updates, sending pictures, and video. Overall communication was excellent. Our dog looked like he was at ease and enjoying his time with Rachel and her family. We will definitely book with Rachel and her family in the future.”
“Our experience with Rachel was wonderful! She sent us regular updates, pictures and videos. Our Gracie girl was spoiled! Hoping we can book with again in the future!”
“Deirdre was absolutely amazing. She sent many pictures and updates. After meeting her I felt completely comfortable and at ease leaving my Fur baby with her. Definitely recommend working with her!”
“Chelsey took great care of Annie and provided great exercise opportunities for her. She also sent updates and pictures while Annie stayed with her. I would recommend Chelsey to others and wouldn’t hesitate to have Annie stay there again!”
“Lindsay was terrific. Jason immediately felt comfortable in her home, climbing up on the coach and rolling around happily. She did a great job providing food and snuggles and walks.”
“Angie was a LIFESAVER with our 7 and 3 year old lab and frenchton girls over Christmas! We had a meet and greet to discuss needs and concerns after initial booking inquiry and Angie was so optimistic about the stay at her home. During the stay, our girls had some anxiety and sick episodes but Angie was so attentive with updates and caring for them that put any worries at ease. The videos, pictures, and responsive texts made this first boarding/pet-sitting experience easy on both us humans and our dogs. Not to mention how Angie did all this over the Christmas holiday - I know Leia Pup and Penny loved their time with their "babysitter" watching Christmas movies and playing with other furry friends they made during the stay! THANK YOU ANGIE!”
“Could not have asked for a better pet sitter! He kept me updated with lots of pictures, communicated consistently, and made sure my dogs got plenty of exercise. I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. Truly a 10/10 will definitely book again and recommend to anyone.”
“Emily was awesome to work with to meet our needs as a first timer needing dog sitting and with the meet and greet with Daisy! Daisy’s 5 day stay with Emily was great! We were very satisfied.”
“Jennifer was A++! This was the first time leaving our pup as he's only 6 months old. She sent us daily updates of him, videos of him playing with her dog, and he came home tired. We didn't worry about our pup for one minute while we were away. We would definitely book her again to care for our little Rowdy ❤️ Can't thank her enough for taking such good care of him!”

“Jordon has done extended stays caring for my long haired cat, Oliver. Oliver really doesn’t like to be social with anyone, but me! Jordon sends pictures everyday and to my surprise some of the pics….Oliver is sitting next to and relaxing with Jordon. He is very responsible & caring. He goes above and beyond. I will ask for Jordon every time I need someone to stay with Oliver while I’m away. Thank you, Jordon!”
“Rachel was GREAT! She was able to help out with our dog at the last minute when we decided to go out of town and couldn't take our dog along! Dozer has a lot of anxiety and doesn't do well with boarding, so having someone who could come into our home and care for him was a perfect solution!!”
“Sage was a wonderful sitter! She was attentive to our pets and took care of playing, feeding and their litter boxes and other accidents. She went above and beyond by bringing in our mail, moving objects out of kitty reach and bonding with our animals by holding them and playing with them. She kept us updated daily with detailed notes and pictures. We would definitely have her watch our kitties again and would highly recommend to others! Thank you so much!”
“Angie was great, filled in for us last minute! She was easy to work with and accommodated a virtual meeting to go over instructions to fit our schedule. We were very happy with the care our two cats received!!”

“I’m so grateful I tried Rover and found Ashley! When Ashley came over for a meet and greet, Jasmine immediately loved her! She is so kind, loving, and a personable. Ashley took the time to get to know Jasmine and asked great clarifying questions. I absolutely loved receiving sweet updates and photos when I was gone! I was not worried the entirety of my trip because I knew she had it covered!! Ashley was even sweet enough to clean, wash the bedding, and vacuum without being asked. Ashley’s genuine love for animals and her strong communication skills make her the perfect sitter! I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’m so thankful for her and will absolutely book her again!!!!”

About: I grew up with dogs and love them! I am a current dog mom to a spunky 3 year old golden retriever. We spent two years training him in home and out. I am currently a work from home employee so I am happy to let the pups out at any time of the day and can walk them after work. I have a decent sized fenced in back yard for the dogs to play in! My dog is super friendly and will love having play dates. He is neutered as well!

“Shelby was an awesome dog sitter for our pup, Piper! We found ourselves in a pinch and needed someone to watch her all day - turns out she’s right in our neighborhood! This was our first time leaving our pup with someone else - Shelby and her husband were great at drop off and then sent pics and videos throughout the day. I know Piper had a fun day and was in good hands. We will definitely be using Shelby again in the future!”

About: Over the past several years I have helped care for family and friend’s pets. I currently have 4 chaotic cats. I’ve always loved looking after our 4 legged friends! I am currently doing factory work so my schedule is a bit more limited. I am fully available three days of the week, and the other four I am available 3:30-10pm. I can walk dogs as needed, as well as provide the attention and play that they need. I am also able to ensure all the owners rules or guidelines are kept to standard.
About: I have experience with puppies to senior dogs. I love walking, and walk my dog approximately four miles a day. My energy matches that of a youthful pup! I’m an early riser, so I can get your dog ready to take on his/her day with healthy exercise! Most weekdays are spent at home, so I’m happy to visit and/or walk your pet to tire him/her for bed. I am a full-time working Mom, but can help care for your pet with advanced notice. If you don’t mind my kiddos tagging along, I have two extra pet-lovers who’d love to lay on some more snuggles and playtime! Dogs always stay on leash during walks and space is maintained from other walkers.

I work full time during the week. The dogs will have free run of my upstairs or if you prefer they be in a kennel I can accommodate that too I recently fenced in my backyard. Huge play area for the dogs to run and play . I will provide the best 1 on 1 care for them
