“Masha and her family were so amazing for our boy, Milo. They kept him busy, kept up with his schedule, and were very attentive to any special needs that might be there. Masha also made us feel secure by updating us throughout the day and sending us photo updates. Milo was very comfortable with them, and we will definitely be using their services again in the future. It’s good to have someone you can trust with your fur baby who cares and loves them.”
“My shepherd husky mix Riker had such a great time and was well taken care of. He was so happy (and tired) after his boarding. Would use their services again!!”
“Huey took wonderful care of Ziggy. She is great to work with - good communication, daily videos/photos, and you can tell she really loves caring for the animals. Will be booking her again soon!”
“I had a wonderful experience boarding my dog, Hazel, with Bryn. At the meet and greet, Hazel obviously liked Bryn (which is not always the case when meeting new people) so I knew we were off to a great start. Bryn has a calm personality and definitely is knowledgeable about dogs. She has a lovely home and a great fenced in backyard where the dogs can play. Her dog, Kepler, is very sweet. Bryn sent pictures and updates during Hazel's stay and reported that she did very well. She followed my instructions as far as giving Hazel her medications. I'd happily recommend Bryn to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.”
“Cal and Kelly took great care of our baby girl Rosie. Lots of pics and videos and overall excellent communication throughout the process. She had a great time and we were very confident that she was safe and well cared for.”
“Our two geriatric chihuahuas had a lovely time with Yessica, Blake, and family; we could see that they were well looked after. We will definitely book with Yessica again.”
“Kelly was a fantastic host who graciously saved my vacation with a last minute booking when my plans fell through. She was wonderful with my anxious dog Stevie, who looked like she immediately felt at home. Kelly was communicative, sent many updates and photos, and was responsive to my suggestions when Stevie wouldn’t take her meds. Kelly and her husband allowed Stevie to snuggle on the couch and bed and took fantastic care of her. Stevie especially enjoyed the beautiful backyard and garden. I was able to have a relaxing trip knowing that Stevie was happy. I highly recommend Kelly and will definitely use her again!”
“Joseph and his wife took amazing care of Kashmere over night. They sent updates through out the entire day/ night with pictures and videos to make sure we knew he was doing ok. Also kept him on schedule for us so there were no issues for us when we got him back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Eric was great! We had a family emergency and needed to travel internationally. He sent lots of pics and even socialized our dog. It was an exciting week away from home with many adventures. Will definitely use him again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our baby!”
“Cindy was awesome. She addressed the initial anxiety of Lightning , made sure he is comfortable, and sent pictures and videos . We will not hesitate having her board Lightning again.”
“I cannot recommend Tatiana enough! She took the time to learn about my dog’s personality and immediately made me feel like my dog would be in great hands. She sent regular updates and photos/videos that showed my pup was not only safe but genuinely happy and cared for. It’s easy to tell that she truly loves dogs and treats them like her own. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and kind who will treat your dog like family, Tatiana is the one. I will absolutely be booking again!”
“I don’t think we could have asked for a better person than Dana to give our 12 year old dog Maggie so much love, attention, exercise, and new experiences for the 5 days she (and Patrick) had her! She got to eat food out of puzzle dishes and got lots of frozen treats including yogurt which she loved! Lots of photos and updates every day were truly wonderful to see. Maggie didn’t beg for food during their meals, nor did she whine to get something like she does at home. Sorry Dana she whined some after we got home but not too bad. A million thanks to Dana and Patrick for being such great caregivers.”
“I have a little senior dog with some idiosyncrasies. I could not have left her in better hands than that of this gentle attentive doggie-minder. Thank you Marion♥️”
“Maria and her husband were great with my pup while I was away! She was very attentive and asked lots of questions to make sure that she understood all of Noki’s needs and could keep him happy and comfortable during his stay. She was also flexible in working with me on the best times for drop off. Maria is very responsive and sent lots of pictures and videos as well so that I could see he was doing well. I would be happy to have Noki stay with Maria again in the future!”
“My pup had the best time with Josh and Andres! Could not recommend them enough. They asked thoughtful questions during drop-off to make sure they had all the right details before his stay. My pup can be a nervous little guy, but they sent plenty of updates, photos, and videos throughout his stay which made it clear he was settling in, getting plenty of love - and having a great time getting energy out and playing with other pups. Maro is looking forward to the next stay! Thank you!!”
“John and Viona took great care of Chase. Gave him his meds and let him take it easy with their senior dog. We got photos and videos of our dog during our trip. And communication was a breeze. Would gladly recommend them.”
“Diana and her family took great care of our puppy while we were out of town. She sent daily updates and photos and was quick to respond to messages! We would trust Diana again with Pepper Ann if she is available!”

“Highly recommend. We have used Marion several times. She does really well with our two cats, who can get anxious around new people, but they have not had issues with her. She was even able to troubleshoot our automatic feeder when she noticed it wasn't working! We will be using her again in future.”
“Ariana did a great job with my three cats over the Christmas holiday. I was nervous to leave them, but she helped ease my anxiety. She was patient and flexible with my changing plans and followed instructions. Thanks, Ariana!”
“Thanks again, Scott! Fantastic pet sitter - sends lots of photos and videos, very respectful of our home, and, most importantly, clearly cares about our cats! Can’t recommend enough!”
“Anton was a fantastic communicator and took my stress away about leaving my kitties. I left for 4 days and have 6 cats and he was fantastic. His picture updates were cute & he went above and beyond to play with them and feed them their wet food. Highly recommend him for any of your animal needs.”
“Ellena was wonderful to work with! She provided excellent care for my cat during a 3-night stay at her home. Communication was smooth and easy throughout the entire process - from initial booking to pickup. Most importantly, my cat came home completely relaxed and content, which tells me he was well cared for and comfortable in her home. I would definitely book with her again. Ellena’s reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the animals in her care.”
“Teffni has been taking great care of our senior boy Sully! As he’s aged he needs regular check-ins even for short time away. Every time we’ve needed Teffni she’s been available and has handled his weird food issues with no problems! Very grateful to have her around!”
“Sarah was amazing with Miso! Dropped by every day and gave my sweet girl all the attention she deserved. She also took some amazing pictures of her to send to me! Will definitely book again next time I’m out of town. Thanks Sarah 🫶🏽”
“Rebecca did great with our cats! She was so patient and kind with our shy kitty who also needs medicine, and was able to troubleshoot administration when things didn't go exactly to plan. Our girls will be excited to see her again in the future ❤️”
“Xena is wonderful! She is communicative, punctual, and reliable. She took great care of our German Shepherd and sent frequent updates and pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Wataru did a great job with pet sitting my cat. He was very caring and flexible. We were able to relax on our trip knowing Wataru was looking after Kevin Bacon our cat. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi, my name is what? (Yessica), my name is who? (Dog whisperer), my name is chika chika ruff ruff 😎 I am a dog lover at heart. Growing up with dogs has truly been a blessing, they are a man’s best friend. You can trust your dog will feel at home. Our furr baby Blake passed away in October of 2025, he was the goodest boy and forever will be cherished in our hearts. We live next to a long trail perfect for peaceful walks. We love outdoor activities and now with the warmer weather your pup will get plenty of exercise. I will maintain any schedule you have and make sure your pup gets extra loving during their stay. Our home can accommodate for those with extra energy or older dogs who want to sleep in and cuddle all day. My husband works from home and would love the company of "mans best friend". We are off on weekends and have plenty of trails to explore. Your furr babies can expect a minimum of 3 walks per day, cuddles, food time on schedule, treats, and lots of toys and play time.
About: I've been the go-to cat sitter for my family and friends for over 10 years now, and I love it. Cats have such distinct personalities — some greet you at the door, some take a few days to warm up, and I've learned to read and respect whatever mood I'm working with. Feeding schedules, litter box care, quiet cuddle time — I've got it covered. If your cat is more independent, I'll give them their space. If they're a snuggler, I'm happy to sit and hang out for a while. Either way, I just want them to feel safe and comfortable while you're away.
“Jazzel was awesome! No complaints at all. I needed someone to check on my cats while I was away, and even with very short notice, she was able to fit us in her schedule and took great care of them. She sent multiple photos during every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind, and even my super skittish scaredy cat warmed up to her after a few days. I would 100% recommend her, and she’ll definitely be my first choice the next time I need someone to care for my cats! :)”
“I simply cannot express the relief I had while traveling with Vanessa as my house/pet sitter. I have 2 cats and was babysitting my daughters cat, who arrived the day I left. Vanessa sent pics everyday of the cats snuggled with her or chilling in their fav spots! My trip was very unexpected, and it was my first time using Rover. I’ve always wary booked Vanessa again for a trip I had planned and was going to take my cat to my daughters, but it was so much more relaxing for them here in their home❤️”
“I've booked with Karen before and chose to book with Karen again because she is extremely responsive, flexible, and provides great updates while watching the pets. Karen provided timely and extensive reports and went above and beyond my request for watching my pet. She changed my pet's litter, replaced her water, spent ample time with my cat, and communicated immediately when a problem presented itself. I would recommend Karen and I look forward to booking with her again in the future.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Layhill
About: I work from home and my furry friends are like my children. Happy snuggle them while you're away! Please let me know if they don't like kitties or other doggies as I have a senior red husky, CoCo, that loves doggie friends. I've had dogs, cats, lizards, fish and birds for the past 20 years so are comfy around fur, feathers or fins. If you have a senior pet, we have a nice, and quite space for them to relax too & we can help with meds or any other special needs. I have a fenced yard, but prefer to walk Coco dog on a leash. If you have a kitty that needs to stay, they're welcome to tag along too, just send me a message! I work from home (self employed), so my schedule is completely flexible and am happy to share my day with all the furry creatures in the house. I am available throughout the day for multiple walks, feedings or care and enrichment activities I have a fenced in yard, but will only be leash walking doggies, along with my dog, Coco. Coco is a red husky, that is 11 years old and loves all doggies and cats too! For cats, they will have their own room (our guest bedroom) with a big window so they can watch birds and squirrels all daylong. I am happy to share pictures throughout the day.
“My dog, Rosie was in good hands with Kelly and her husband. I felt less stressed knowing they took every effort to make her comfortable. Kelly sent me endless updates and pictures of Rosie's stay . This was important to me because this was my first overnight booking with her. Thanks, Kelly. We will be back soon!”
About: 15 years of own pet care experience. I have cared for pets and volunteered on animal shelters before. I own a frenchie boy who is very calm , never barks and loves to eat. If needed on a case by case basis I can arrange to have your baby in my care alone :) Loved animals since little. I will love your pet like its my own. I’m a civil engineer with a frenchie pup working from home! Dog-walking or pet sitting will be a smooth addition to my daily routine that your pup and I will enjoy! Meet and greets needed for dog sitting. Will send you photos or text to let you know how your pet is doing! Please let me know of any fears your pup has. I typically let my dog sleep my couch or bed but will ask for permission first.
About: I'm excited to have your furry friend over and will give them all the TLC they deserve while sticking to their regular schedules. I've been obsessed with dogs since I was a kid and have taken care of our family dog, Lucky, since he was a puppy up until he passed away due to old age at 17 years. I now have a 6 year old Shiba Inu, Sumi, and a 10 year old cat, Ellie. Sumi was a rescue mill mama and was extremely fearful. With patience and love, she's finally come out of her shell. I've managed to teach both the dog and the cat tricks and work on training with them daily. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment and am home most of the day. I'll stick to whatever schedule your pet is used to so there won't be any confusion when they return to you. Our neighborhood is pretty large and also has a walking trail, so walks can be as short or long as you'd like. There's a dog friendly space downstairs with plenty of room to run around and play with toys, or if they prefer to chill, there's plenty of pet beds and blankets in the living room. I have a very chill and friendly Shiba Inu and Husky/Shepherd mix at home that can keep your dog company. I do have a cat that has their own room and can be separated if your dog doesn't get along with cats. I also have a large crate and two pens available if that's something you're used to doing. Baby gates are set up between each floor, but are usually left open for my dog. There are cameras on each floor so that I can keep an eye on the pets if I'm leaving the home or on a different floor.
“We are new to Rover and to daycare. Josh & Andres’ place was the perfect option. Our dog had a great day and she is already looking forward to the next time with her new friends. Great hosts and daycare!”

“Paul was great. My dog is anxious around new people, especially men, and Paul was patient with her and helped her get comfortable. He also took her on long walks which she needs because she has a lot of energy so I appreciated how tired she was when we got home.”
“Lauren was great with Osito! She was very responsive and had great communication. She sent all the pics and updates as requested and took such great care of Osito. Osito even made himself right at home. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Maria was so great with our rescue pup! We were nervous to leave our pup with a new sitter but she kept us up to date all day. Maris was a strong communicator and very thoughtful. Would recommend her if you need a dog sitter who really cares about dogs and cats and their well being!”
“Need a compassionate sitter? Check! Need someone who will tire your high energy dogs out? Check! Want a sitter who follows all your instructions to a T? Check Check Check! Took care of my 3 shepherds with excellent care, even my shepherd with degenerative myelopathy (who is a picky princess) had a happy time with him. Will use him again!”
“From the moment you meet Helena you can tell she is a dog lover -- her face literally lights up. That means she's not only looking after your pup... she is enjoying and getting to know your pup's personality! I dropped my dog Sampson off for a day of doggie daycare expecting her just to look after him and take him for a walk. But she went above and beyond, adding notices about what they were "working on" together. I'd definitely use Helena again!”
“Scout had a wonderful time staying at Ming’s while I was traveling for work. Ming sent me lots of pictures throughout the day of Scout playing with her puppy friends. I don’t know what we’d do without Ming. It feels great to send my beloved pup to a place where I know she’s going to be taken care of and have fun! Thank you Ming!”
About: From doing grooming and farm chores at a horse rescue and watching neighborhood dogs to raising my own terrier, I’ve gained experience with a wide variety of different breeds, sizes, ages and species. Need someone to look after your dog or farmsit while you’re away? Got an exotic pet, goat, sheep, horse or dog you need a sitter for? No problem! I delight in caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. Almost all species and breeds are welcome here. I can also come to your farm or stable for horses and livestock animals. Note that I cannot take cats due to cat allergies. I’m currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pets! Dogs will be walked daily and will have free access to a large, fully fenced in yard. I can come to your house for any farm animals or exotics. I have a large fenced yard, plenty of pet toys and live in a suburban neighborhood filled with plenty of good parks to go for walks in. Any instructions you give as an owner will be respected and followed. Additionally, I am a private service for boarding! If you book me for your pets, then they will be guaranteed to be the only animals staying with me at the time. If I’m caring for horses or other farm animals, then I will come to your place rather than take them home. Horses will be groomed everyday as well as exercised according to your specifications.
“Joseph took many photos of our puppy to keep us updated throughout the time we needed him to dog sit for us! The process was fast and easy and I would recommend him as a dog sitter to any of my friends. He was also nice and very flexible with accommodating to us! 😁”
“Cal was incredible with Henry, especially because of Henry’s apprehensions with men. I received great updates and communication was excellent. I am confident in my choice to book repeat visits and trust Cal & Kelly will continue to help nurture our rescue pup! Henry was happily exhausted when he got home, and I highly recommend them.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Layhill
“Anton has been walking our Pittie, Mihoshi, for months, and he is an excellent walker!! He’s very attentive to our pup’s behavior and communicates thoroughly. If we ever need to make adjustments, he is flexible. If he has upcoming plans, he informs us weeks in advance so we can work out the schedule together. I couldn’t recommend him more if you’re looking for a walker or sitter for your furry friend. :)”
“Liza was amazing with my hyper pup! She was very quick with communication and she took some cute pics of Peanut during their walk. I knew Peanut was in good hands during their time together ☺️”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I grew up with two dogs, two cats, and a bird. I have many years experience pet sitting as well as grooming and a bit of training. I work from home, so I am able to keep a constant eye on your pets (: I’m also able to take your pets for long, frequent walks, and take them to a nearby park if that’s something you’re comfortable with! I work from home, and I love going out for walks. Depending on you and your let’s needs, I can take them out as frequent as you’d like. I also have a dog park right next to my complex that I love to go visit. I live in an apartment, but the complex is gated and fenced in around the courtyard and pet grooming station. The complex itself is very safe- no one can enter without a key fob.
“Sarah is amazing! Cooper can be iffy with new people and by the 2nd walk he didn’t even bark when she came in and was just excited to see her :) she took so many pictures to share and he was very happy in every one. Will absolutely book her again”
“Calvin was always on time. Had water ready for my dog. Walked for the length of the dog walk. And was able to manage my dog through some of her issues -- deer, loud vehicles... I highly recommend him as a dog walker.”

About: I have always loved being around dogs and being able to make sure their needs are met completely. Although I have only owned one dog I have been around different dogs from a young age. I trained my own dog as a puppy but I have family who have owned pit bulls, cane corsos, husky’s, etc. Animals and dogs have become a passion of mine and making sure they are living the best life they possibly can. I’m currently a bio major college student with completely open weekend times along with some weekday times. Tuesdays after 2:30 pm, Thursdays between 7 am to 10 am and after 2:30 PM, and Fridays starting at 11 AM. I understand the responsibility of the job and meeting your pets needs along with keeping them safe will always be the top priority. I also understand how hard it is to trust someone with your pet so I will also take pictures and videos to help making you feel comfortable while your away. Throughout my time I will make sure the pets feel as safe as possible and make sure they are getting the proper attention, care, and supervision.
About: I have been taking care of my husband’s family’s 3 cats for over five years now. They have made me fall in love them. We finally took the plunge in two years ago and adopted our own fur baby, a little tuxedo cat named Winnie! I also volunteer at the local animal shelter, providing love comfort and help to animals looking for their new forever homes. I love playing with dogs and taking them on nice long walks! Please note, I am not taking on recurring services at the moment. I would be happy to take a dog on a nice exercise walk at the end of the day, potentially with some toys to play with too! I would love to sit with your cat and give it some nice brushes and mice to chase. On Rover, I have taken care of cats, dogs, a bird and a horse. I am really open to any furry friend that needs some company! Your pet is my pet. I ensure the safety and security of your pet as if it is my own. Feel free to share other information that makes you feel most comfortable🙂
“Cindy was great! She was very punctual, communicative, and caring with my dog when she took him for a walk. She also sent me many pictures from the walk. I would definitely hire her again!”
“Oluwaseun is such a wonderful dog walker! I will definitely use her again! She went far and above the walking responsibilities. She communicated before arrival and completion, sending cool photos of what my dog Ralph experienced on his walk.💗💗 She was attentive to all the details of what my dog needed. I felt so at ease having her walk my senior dog.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and have cared for friends’ pets for years, including dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, mellow seniors, and everything in between. I understand every pet has different needs and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I’m also happy to look after cats, small animals, and other pets, giving them the same attention and affection I’d give my own. I am a college student and have a set class schedule Monday–Thursday but I still have plenty of time for pet care during the day, evenings, and weekends. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely so they stay safe and comfortable. I’ll send regular photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Denisse is very kind and responsible!! She visited my house mid-day for several days to take my two dogs for a walk and let them play in the yard while I had long days out of the house. Everything with the booking went as planned and the pictures were great!! I highly recommend Denisse for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I got my two pups when they were just 8 weeks old, and now they're 13 — so honestly, I've been through it all with dogs. The chaotic puppy zoomies, the teenage "selective hearing" phase, and now the sweet, slower senior years where they just want a comfy spot and a gentle walk. That means I genuinely get what your dog needs at whatever stage they're in, whether that's keeping up with their energy or being extra patient and gentle with achy joints and changing routines. Dogs have been part of my everyday life for over a decade, and I'd love for yours to feel just as at home with me. I'll treat them like my own — because that's really the only way I know how. I'm a stay-at-home wife, so dogs are already woven into the fabric of my everyday life — I'm home and available throughout the day, not squeezing pet care into a lunch break or the hour after work. Every day, I take my own dogs on a long walk of at least 1.5 miles, so your dog would be included in that same routine rather than getting a rushed, quick trip around the block. Beyond the walk, I build in time throughout the day for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime, and my evenings tend to be calmer — perfect for some quiet downtime or cuddle time before bed. Since I've had dogs for 13 years, this isn't something new I'm adding to my schedule — it's simply how my days already run, whether it's a puppy-energy day or a slower, senior-dog kind of day. Being home full-time means your dog gets consistent attention all day long, not just quick check-ins. I keep things as close to your dog's normal routine as possible — same feeding schedule, walks, and any specific instructions you give me. Familiar surroundings mean less stress for them, and I treat your home with the same care I'd want for my own.
About: Ive taken care of a variety of dogs since the age of 16. When friends, family and neighbors went out of town, they relied on me. I've cared for dogs from ages of 10 months to 14 years old, dealing with potty training to strict medicine schedules and special diets. Im currently in training to be an EMT and work as a volunteer Sundays to Monday overnight. However, the rest fo the week I am very flexible and am available most of the time. I also have my own mode of transportation I can stay in your home and provide whatever you need to allow me the privilege to look after your fur baby. I am willing to go through any background check or interview that will help establish my credibility.
About: I have taken care of dogs most of my life! I try my best to pick up on their body language and care for them as needed. I currently work part time and go to school. I am mostly available Friday through Monday but I may be able to work around your schedule! Please feel free to message me with any questions! I would love to make friends with your fur babies to gain their love and trust! I will care for them as if they were my own pups!
About: I'm a dog-mom of a pup named Bear! I absolutely adore my dog and would share my love with your furry-friend! I've had Bear since he was a puppy and he's now 4. So, I know first hand the level of care needed for puppies and teen dogs. I'm comfortable with cats as well! I've been around kittens and cats for most of my life through many of my friends. So, I'm very comfortable and familiar with the care they need. I work remote, so my schedule is pretty flexible. As long as I have good notice I'm happy to care for your furry-friend! I do ask that if there are any request during regular business hours (8 am- 6 pm), that I can bring my work laptop. I love my dog very much and am really on top of his care/needs, so I completely understand and expect that from pet owners. I welcome any insights or feedback on how you'd like your pet to be cared for. I'll also be sure to provide updates, videos, and photos to show how things are going. I love getting those for my dog, so l'll be sure to provide that to you! I work remote, so my schedule is pretty flexible. As long as I have good notice I’m happy to care for your pup!

“Masha and her family were so amazing for our boy, Milo. They kept him busy, kept up with his schedule, and were very attentive to any special needs that might be there. Masha also made us feel secure by updating us throughout the day and sending us photo updates. Milo was very comfortable with them, and we will definitely be using their services again in the future. It’s good to have someone you can trust with your fur baby who cares and loves them.”
“My shepherd husky mix Riker had such a great time and was well taken care of. He was so happy (and tired) after his boarding. Would use their services again!!”
“I had a wonderful experience boarding my dog, Hazel, with Bryn. At the meet and greet, Hazel obviously liked Bryn (which is not always the case when meeting new people) so I knew we were off to a great start. Bryn has a calm personality and definitely is knowledgeable about dogs. She has a lovely home and a great fenced in backyard where the dogs can play. Her dog, Kepler, is very sweet. Bryn sent pictures and updates during Hazel's stay and reported that she did very well. She followed my instructions as far as giving Hazel her medications. I'd happily recommend Bryn to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.”
“Cal and Kelly took great care of our baby girl Rosie. Lots of pics and videos and overall excellent communication throughout the process. She had a great time and we were very confident that she was safe and well cared for.”
“Kelly was a fantastic host who graciously saved my vacation with a last minute booking when my plans fell through. She was wonderful with my anxious dog Stevie, who looked like she immediately felt at home. Kelly was communicative, sent many updates and photos, and was responsive to my suggestions when Stevie wouldn’t take her meds. Kelly and her husband allowed Stevie to snuggle on the couch and bed and took fantastic care of her. Stevie especially enjoyed the beautiful backyard and garden. I was able to have a relaxing trip knowing that Stevie was happy. I highly recommend Kelly and will definitely use her again!”
“Joseph and his wife took amazing care of Kashmere over night. They sent updates through out the entire day/ night with pictures and videos to make sure we knew he was doing ok. Also kept him on schedule for us so there were no issues for us when we got him back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“Eric was great! We had a family emergency and needed to travel internationally. He sent lots of pics and even socialized our dog. It was an exciting week away from home with many adventures. Will definitely use him again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our baby!”
“Cindy was awesome. She addressed the initial anxiety of Lightning , made sure he is comfortable, and sent pictures and videos . We will not hesitate having her board Lightning again.”
“I cannot recommend Tatiana enough! She took the time to learn about my dog’s personality and immediately made me feel like my dog would be in great hands. She sent regular updates and photos/videos that showed my pup was not only safe but genuinely happy and cared for. It’s easy to tell that she truly loves dogs and treats them like her own. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and kind who will treat your dog like family, Tatiana is the one. I will absolutely be booking again!”
“I have a little senior dog with some idiosyncrasies. I could not have left her in better hands than that of this gentle attentive doggie-minder. Thank you Marion♥️”
“My pup had the best time with Josh and Andres! Could not recommend them enough. They asked thoughtful questions during drop-off to make sure they had all the right details before his stay. My pup can be a nervous little guy, but they sent plenty of updates, photos, and videos throughout his stay which made it clear he was settling in, getting plenty of love - and having a great time getting energy out and playing with other pups. Maro is looking forward to the next stay! Thank you!!”
“John and Viona took great care of Chase. Gave him his meds and let him take it easy with their senior dog. We got photos and videos of our dog during our trip. And communication was a breeze. Would gladly recommend them.”
“Jenn is amazing! Our cat can be shy around new people, but he warmed up to her completely, getting chatty and snuggly by the end of his stay. Jenn kept us posted with updates and cute pictures. So grateful to her for taking such wonderful care of our little guy.”
“Christopher sent us plenty of photos and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel really comfortable and reassured. He took really good care of our dog, and our dog was super happy when we got back. This was our first time using Rover, and it turned out to be a great experience. We’d definitely recommend Christopher!”
“My babies absolutely LOVED staying with Maria and Fernando! One of my dogs is very energetic and has separation anxiety and the other just wants to be pet all day and can be a grumpy old man if he isn't the center of everyone's attention. During our meet and greet session with Maria, she quickly recognized their unique personalities and knew exactly how to form a bond with both of them. Fernando is also an avid dog lover which was abundantly clear to my older pup who seemed to be right by his side in almost every picture. When the dogs weren’t inside getting belly rubs, they were having a blast in the extraordinary doggie playground that Maria and Fernando created in their backyard. My pups had so much fun playing out there and judging by the pictures, it looked like everyone else did too. I was so thankful for the pictures and updates Maria sent on a regular basis. It was very reassuring to see that my babies were happy, healthy, and safe. Maria and Fernando are definitely the BEST sitters my dogs have ever stayed with and I highly recommend them to any pet parent. Thank you SO much, Maria and Fernando!! My pups and I are very grateful for you guys and we look forward to seeing you again!”
“Aashna and Sidanth took excellent care of our dog. Communication was fantastic – they sent updates and photos twice a day. We felt very comfortable leaving him with them and would definitely rebook.”
“Travis was great with our beagle! Atlas definitely came home spoiled! Travis sent pics and videos to show us how things were going. He was very responsive and the whole process was incredibly easy!”
“Lauren and her "assistant Zoe" (her own dog) looked after Bella very well. The dogs had supervised playtime in the enclosed park, rather like a village green, and had ample time to chill and hang out together. Bella was very happy to stay with Lauren, and the whole experience was positive. Lauren is a very competent and caring boarder. I heartily recommend her!”
“Adva was a great host. She accepted my last minute request and provided me constant updates throughout the stay. I'm convinced that staying with Adva and her family was like a vacation for my pup. I very highly recommend her as a host and I would definitely book with her again. ”
