“All I can say is Rahied is AMAZING!! My 18yr old blind and deaf baby Coco and are beyond blessed to have found him🙏🏾 He was so attentive, sent updates with pictures daily! Caring for a senior dog is very challenging and exhausting but Rahied made this stay so pleasant for my baby. Feed her by hand, let her drink from her bowl by hand, held her when she cried, administered her medication and so much more😫 I felt so comfortable leaving my baby with him, my spirit told me HE was the one & my spirit does NOT LIE! Forever grateful🤞🏾 If you desire compassion, attentive & extra love while being in the care of a sitter, please don't hesitate to book Rahied Hi🫶🏾 If my baby live another season, Rahied is our choice! Thank you again❤️”
“Kerri was absolutely amazing, she loves her dogs. She kept us up to date on each and every day. Daisy seamed to really enjoy herself and also got along very well with the other dogs. Her home is very warming and very inviting, we were very impressed…Thank you Kerri, once again. I’ll be using her services again in the future. Take care until then.”
“Chris and Cass took great care of our Smokey buddy. They were even willing to give him his daily meds that he needed last minute. We will be booking with them again!”
“Meredith was the best pet sitter I could have asked for. She was so sweet with my dogs and kept me updated with lots of videos and photos. You can tell how much she loves animals and it felt like she treated my pups as her own. Will absolutely be using her in the future!!”
“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
“Anna did a great job was little Maizie, she is only 7lbs, but Anna’s Ruby was so sweet to her 🥰 Anna was really attentive to Maizie’s eating habits - she is a picky eater and was able to eat her full meal by day two, would love to rebook with Anna again.”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“Enaes did a fantastic job handling my very nervous pooch and was very flexible when I was stuck out of town due to the weather. She provided updates and I felt comfortable having Pheo in her care.”
“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”
“We would definitely recommend Steven for his pet sitting services. He watched our two kittens for a week that needed a little extra care. He sent pictures and videos frequently so we wouldn’t miss the babies too much. Steven has a lot of knowledge and experience with animals and we would absolutely book with him again. Thank you!”
“Tiffany was my main point of contact and she was so sweet and caring with my senior (14yo) husky mix Molly. I received updates each day morning, and night, and she took my Moll Doll on tons of walks. Molly got to sleep on furniture and I can tell she had the time of her life in the new comfy environment. It was such a relief knowing that she was so well loved while I was away that now I feel like I need to take her back for visits to her new favorite home away from home.”
“Kadi was soo sweet and accommodating! Definitely recommend her if anyone is looking for a good and loving pet sitter! I will ask her to watch my dog Millie again in the future!! 😍😇🥰”
“Our dog had a great time at Queeny’s house. She periodically sent us pictures and responded promptly. Our dog enjoyed playing in her fenced in yard. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Maritza & Daniel did a wonderful job taking care of our Border Collie, Kaylee, while we were out of town for a few days. The updates and pictures they sent kept us informed as to how Kaylee was settling in and showed how happy she was to become a regular part of their day!”
“Omg! Laura is the best! She is so great with dogs, keeps them safe and happy and sends you lots of pictures! It’s so much easier to enjoy time away when you know your pup is so well cared for. Thank you Laura!♥️🐶♥️”
“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”
“Sogol was nice, kind, thoughtful helpful, caring.... I could go on and on. She not only took great care of O.C., she sent pictures regularly and informative updates almost hourly! "Thank you" is not enough. Sogol is wonderful.”
“Shannon was very good with our dog. She kept us posted on how he was doing with posts through Rover and lots of pictures. I could tell our dog felt at home with her and we found her communication and service with our dog to be top notch!! We will definitely use her again. A+ and very grateful.”

“Miryam is truly an angel with my babies. From our very first meet and greet, I instantly had a good feeling about her especially when my girl cat immediately gravitated toward her. She has an amazing ability to care for all three of my cats, balancing their different personalities. She's playful and engaging while also knowing when to give them their space. As we all know, cats can be particular, but Miryam has always been gentle, attentive, patient, and welcoming with my babies ever since our very first meeting. I will always have complete peace of mind knowing my babies are in her care, and I couldn't recommend her more highly ◡̈”
“Erin was so good with Faye! I felt very comfortable being away knowing she was coming by to take care of her. She was communicative and punctual. I would highly recommend hiring Erin to take care of your pets!”
“Sophie dropped in on my kitties every day I was gone and sent photos of them, she also spent time sitting with them and giving them pets. I could go on my trip and have peace of mind that my girls were taken care of ❤️”
“Sarah was really great. My cat Charlie is a little shy. Sarah was very patient and Charlie loved her after the 1st day. Sarah looked after him for almost 10 days, she was punctual, professional and will be asking her again.”
About: While I love any and every animal, cats of any kind hold a special place in my heart as I’ve grown up around cats, and even now have my best friend, Goober. I take cat health and stimulation very seriously and knowing first hand that cats actually do require a lot of attention and care contrary to popular belief. I’m excellent and being attentive and understanding of proper care instructions for your cuddly buddy.
About: I have a strong love for animals and real experience caring for a variety of pets. In elementary school, I often took care of our class pets; a goldfish, and a hamster even when it wasn’t my turn, simply because I enjoyed it. Since then, I’ve raised two dogs, including one who passed away from old age, and I’ve learned a lot about both everyday and senior pet care. I also house-sit for my sister’s two cats. I’m patient, responsible, and treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own. At the moment I am a high school graduate transitioning into college and I do work part time so I am mostly free on weekends and other times of the day week during the week. Depending on the pet, I like to wait for the dog to come to me and trust me. I’ll have a treat in my hand and I’ll let it sniff it and eat it
“Kennie made it so easy to be away from my sweet Nellie! They were thoughtful, attentive, and communicative. Kennie sent me fantastic updates with details I wouldn’t think to ask for (on her pupils, breathing, ears, tail, etc) which showed how much attention they were paying to my sweet girl. Even for a few night stay, Nellie was so relaxed I got some really great photos and videos of her being playful. Would highly recommend Kennie and will absolutely book with them again!”
About: I’m very comfortable caring for cats with different personalities, from playful and social to shy or independent. I understand how important routine is for cats and make sure feeding, litter cleaning, and attention are consistent. I’m patient, gentle, and respectful of their space, and I always make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Ray took really good care of our cat, Nutella! She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up and seemed to really like being there. He was also accomodating and sent daily updates with photos! Thank you Ray!”
“Akala was great! She took care of my two cats while I was out of town this weekend, and I returned to my apartment (and cats!) in perfect condition. I received regular updates and cute pictures, which did a lot to ease my mind as I'm rarely apart from them. I would definitely welcome Akala back to house sit again.”
“Amy was amazing!! This was our first time using Rover and will always use Amy/Rover going forward. She was so kind and I honestly think our cats are going to miss her now that we’re home. We looked forward to her daily updates because they were so hilarious and took adorable pictures of our cats. Highly recommended!!!”
“Persephone unfortunately got sick just before - and during :( - Ashley's visits which made me a bit worried but Ashley took great care of her and gave me updates so I knew all was well. Thanks for going above and beyond!”
About: I have worked in the doggy daycare Field for 2 years and have gained so much information and knowledge on taking care of your babies. I have walked dogs, fed them on time, gave them their medication on time, played with them, cleaned up after them and so much more!!

About: I grew up in a house with dogs both large and small and having the responsibility of helping to care for them. When I moved into my current home and getting a dog was a possibility I went to the shelter and found my perfect buddy. I love dogs and they are an important part of my life. I like to find things that engage my dog when he plays so he is stimulated mentally as well as physically. I hope this leads to a long and healthy life for him! I have always cared for animals and to be able to provide them with a happy and healthy life is a great joy. I have potty trained puppies, crate trained adult dogs, and taught tricks.

“Samantha was very friendly and her house was clean and tidy! She immediately gave my dog some treats and he warmed up very quickly. I got lots of photos and a few videos throughout the day and it made me so happy to know my boy was in safe hands! Will definitely be using Samantha’s doggy day care services again.”
“Tiffany and Steven watched my Great Dane puppy this time and gave him so much love! He can be a real handful and I needed some space to get my home ready to sell. They treated him like their own and sent so many cute pics. He got to go on lots of walks, have the bed to himself (and the humans) , and got to play with all the toys he could find. Otto had a blast. I cant recommend them enough. Thank you guys so much!”
“Rachel is amazing. She took great care of my Hobey who is a goldendoodle. I knew upon meeting her that she took this would be a great experience for Hobey. She provided videos throughout the day that showed Hobey playing with other dogs, doing tasks that would merit him a treat, and relaxing after some playtime in the backyard. It was nice to see the vids and to see him have a good time. I took him there 3 days in a row and each time he would get excited as we pulled up to her house which made me feel good. I could tell he had an active day when I picked him up cause we would get home and I would feed him and he would sleep for the rest of the night. I was only in Michigan for a week but I will be back to visit family and I will always use Rachel.”

I have a partial fence it is not complete yet the land lord said it will be finished soon I have a lot of free time to take care of your pets on my profile it says I own two dogs that is not true I don't have any pets at home Either me or my husband is always home when I’m taking care of a pet. I rearranged my schedule for the pet. I don’t have a set work schedule. I drive Uber at the moment. Also, my house has an enclosed backyard. I also require a pet parents to have a leash, a harness or some other form to walk your pet. I have locked doors. I have screen doors and I also asked the owners how they are on leash and if their yard is enclosed or not, my house isn’t closed and I have all things up above floor level. All my stuff is like waist high and I make sure anything that our animal would chew on is up. I also asked if the pet parents have shots up-to-date. And I also asked them to provide a kennel of some sort just in case the animal needs to be put in there. The only time I would put them in is if the owner requires them to be in at night why I’m sleepy or if I leave the house and don’t take the animal with me
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Even though we were her very first client, she treated our pup like absolute family from the second we walked in. She was warm, professional, and kept us updated throughout the day, which gave us complete peace of mind. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. Don't let her lack of reviews fool you, she is a natural at this and truly wonderful with pets. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Hello! I have been working with all type of animals since I was 13 years old. I grew up in a home that encouraged love for animals. My mom, sister, and I used to rehabilitate baby foxes, raccoons, squirrels, possums, and different types of birds. I was a full time dog sitter for a few years. Since going away to college, I wasn't able to work as much. I graduated from CMU in 2020 and spent 3 years working for United Wholesale Mortgage. Now I am fully self employeed and work from home as a pet sitter and a mortgage broker. I would love to take care of your adorable pets!

My next door neighbor has a very small dog on the other side of the fence. The opposite side has no pets.

About: After recently losing our two beloved fur babies back-to-back due to old age, our home has felt much quieter. We truly miss the love, companionship, and joy that pets bring each day, and we would be honored to care for your furry family members as if they were our own. Because I’m home full-time, your pets will receive plenty of attention, supervision, snuggles, and personalized care throughout the day. From hourly potty breaks and daily walks to playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment, their comfort and happiness are my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I promise to provide a safe, loving home where they’ll feel welcomed, cared for, and treated like family every step of the way. I do work from home so I’m able to provide multiple breaks at all times of the day! If your pet is on a certain schedule please let me know. Your pup is my pup when in my care! They’re allowed to lounge on furniture and cuddle with me! They’ll feel right at home. Your pet will feel loved!
“Brittany was very accommodating and took my last minute request. There can be improvement in communication to avoid misunderstandings. But, she was very kind and caring and put forth the effort to clear up what was misunderstood.”
“My Rex knew immediately that we were off to see Kristen this morning and that gladdened my heart. I won’t leave Rex with anyone else but Kristen! Many thanks to her. I’m certain today was rather epic for Rex. See you again!”
About: Hello! My pet experience consists of having my own doggy for the past 20 years. I rescued my older dog and then got a new puppy. My old Rose passed away but I had to give her eye medication and oral medication everyday so I am comfortable with that. I also grew up with family dogs and cared for those dogs. My availability to watch your dog is very flexible. I work from home a most days a week so it is a high chance that I could work from home while caring for your pup. I am a very caring person. I have a PhD in human development and family science and work in the social work field. I have a giant heart and would love to care for your doggie! As a stay-at-home worker, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, regular potty breaks, and plenty of play and cuddle time. My flexible schedule means I can easily accommodate pets’ needs, whether that’s sticking to a specific routine or being available for spontaneous walks and care. Being home also helps me monitor behavior closely and respond quickly to any changes, making pets feel secure, loved, and well looked after. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to each animal’s needs. In my home, pets have access to cozy rest areas, regular outdoor time, and plenty of affection and play throughout the day. I maintain a calm, clean space and follow any routines or special instructions provided. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick closely to the pet’s established schedule to minimize stress. I provide regular updates, ensure fresh food and water, maintain cleanliness, and give each pet the love and attention they’re used to.
“Audrey took very good care of our dog. She took him for a walk and provided plenty of photos - gave me so much peace of mind to receive news that he was happy and see how he was doing.”

“Gary is the best!! He's so amazing with my pups! They love him and really enjoy their walks with him. And, he really helped me out when I found myself in need of a walker on short notice. Can't say enough how thankful I am for him & Rover.com!!”
“Ashley is very reliable and flexible when needed. She is accommodating with our constant change of schedule. Not only that but she is great with our dogs. If you’re looking for a trusted dog walker Ashley is the one.”
“Rhonda was great with Casey, sounds like they had a fun time together. She sent pictures and a detailed summary of their walk. She was on time and responsive to any questions.”
“Mary is great with my pitty!! She always did what I needed done and found the time to squeeze him in even in busy days! She does have a bad ankle so due to that we had to switch over so if u have a bigger stronger dog who pulls or is reactive, may be best to find someone else. But otherwise she did the job and walked him even with that ankle :)! She helped us find other options as well and always had tips to help when issues were brought up. She seems to really care about the animals and what they need.”
About: I volunteered all throughout my high school years at the humane society and still try my best to help out and donate when I can. I have three pets, and have had many more in my life and hope to have even more when I’m given the proper opportunity and safe environment. Through my years of being a pet owner I know that animal care isn’t all that easy and isn’t for everyone. It requires hard work, patience, and lots and lots of research. I pride myself in being vigilant with care instructions as every animal is different even when it comes to the same breed. I work a part time job where I find out my schedule weekly. My job entails a 4-7 hour shift where I am completely free after. I am also a student but have yet to begin courses for the fall. I’m a lover of all animals and understand the importance of care and attention that comes with taking care of our furry friends. As a cat parent myself, I wouldn’t want anything but the best and most attentive sitter and through that experience, I have the drive and need to make sure all pets are getting the care and stimulation they need as animals. I also have two parakeets and while having a cat and birds in the house wasn’t easy at first, through training and lots of patience I successfully managed to have my own kitty befriend our two parakeets.
About: I have loved dogs my whole life, and while my experience with dogs in particular is limited, I will give my all to caring for and protecting your pets. I’m comfortable caring for pets with various temperaments and energy levels. I have experience with caring for animals from inside and outside the home. Having had cats for most of my life I’m quite familiar with the habits and tendencies of multi pet households. I’m currently out of school for summer break, but I also have a flexible school schedule so I’ll be home and available to care for your pets in a part time capacity, but again I’m willing to work around things for my clients. There are also no children in the home but I do have three cats. I live in a home with a fenced in yard, I also home three of my own cats. I have my own transportation and can adapt to your needs. I aim to always be respectful of all clients homes and rules. I walk in with calmness and patience to make meeting and interacting with your pet as seamless as possible. My ultimate goal to look after the well being of your pet and meeting any requests/needs a client may have.
About: Hi! Tiffany, metro Detroit, dog mom to two Australian Shepherds. I’ve had dogs for my whole life and I’ll care for your fur babies as if they were my own. I make my own schedule, so I’m happy to fit in drop in care and walks for your pets! There’s nothing better than a bit of quality time with a beloved animal. I’m very cautious and doting on my own dogs and have been lucky and grateful to always have people care for mine tenderly when I’m away, so in turn I will always go above and beyond to make sure yours are comfy, happy, and safe.
About: I’ve always had great experiences of taking care of pets since childhood. From taking care of my own, pet sitting for friends while they’re out of town as well as working at a doggy daycare for a year. I have experience with both cats & dogs of various sizes and ages. Currently I have open availability for house sitting (Sunday through Saturday) and will be available for dog walking and check ins Wednesday through Saturday (mornings and afternoons). I cannot board pets at my home since I share my living space at this time, however, I’m opening to visit/stay at the client’s home if needed.
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, but somewhere along the way I also became a bit of an animal nerd. I genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality and figuring out what makes them feel safe, happy, and understood. I share my home with a dog and a cat of my own, so caring for animals isn't just something I do—it's part of my everyday life. I've worked with playful puppies, wise senior dogs, energetic adventurers, anxious pets, and those wonderfully quirky little personalities that come with their own instruction manual. Every one of them has taught me something. As the proud human of a very particular senior dog, I've become especially tuned in to the little details that make a big difference. Most pets thrive on routine, familiarity, and feeling secure, so my goal is always to make your time away feel as normal as possible for them. Whether that means sticking to a detailed medication schedule, serving dinner in exactly the right bowl, or taking the "long way" because that's their favorite route, I'm all in. I'm dependable, respectful of your home, flexible with scheduling (including evenings), and quick to adapt to each pet's individual needs. My partner is always home with our own furry family when I'm caring for yours, so when I'm with your pet, they have my full attention. You'll often find me exploring Belle Isle with adventurous pups, playing endless games of fetch, hiking local trails, or—if your best friend prefers a slower pace—curled up on the couch giving championship-level snuggles. At the end of the day, I don't just want to care for your pets—I want them to be excited to see me walk through the door. And I want you to head home knowing they were loved just as much as they were looked after. Right now I'm a student, which means my schedule is wonderfully flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your besties. Mondays and Wednesdays are my busiest days, so my availability is a little more limited then, but if you're looking for a regular walker, don't hesitate to reach out. There's still room to make something work! When your pet stays with me, they're treated like family. I have a fenced-in yard for zoomies, a spacious home full of cozy napping spots, and someone is almost always around for belly rubs, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Whether your dog is an athlete or a professional couch potato, they'll feel right at home. When I come to you, I like to think of myself as your pet's temporary personal assistant. Every visit is tailored to their personality and routine. High-energy pups can expect games of fetch, tug-of-war, long sniffy walks, or even a trip to the beach if that's their thing. More of an introvert? I'm perfectly happy to curl up with a book while your furry roommate supervises from the couch—or eventually decides my lap is acceptable. I'm comfortable administering medication, handling potty breaks, sticking to feeding routines, and navigating everything from enthusiastic eaters to tiny food critics. No judgment here—I know some pets have very strong opinions.
About: I have a deep passion for caring for animals, treating each furry friend with the love and attention they deserve. From cozy cuddles to invigorating runs, I tailor each experience to cater to your dog's needs and preferences. Whether it's lounging on the furniture or enjoying playtime with their favorite toys, I ensure your pet feels cherished and valued. I have a particular fondness for exploring the dog-friendly delights of Royal Oak, including parks and pet stores, and even pup cups of froyo. Always prioritizing safety and cleanliness. Bath time is a joyous occasion, and who can resist the simple pleasure of ear scratches and belly rubs?

“Valerie has been a fantastic dog walker for my pug, Steve. Communication has been super easy, she always leaves great notes (feedback and pictures) and brings lots of positive energy. Steve has been a very happy boy to have another friend to play with. Very highly recommended!”
About: I have worked in the doggy daycare Field for 2 years and have gained so much information and knowledge on taking care of your babies. I have walked dogs, fed them on time, gave them their medication on time, played with them, cleaned up after them and so much more!! I do work at Amazon but my job is very flexible especially if you let me know a week or two in advance. I work nights so after 12pm I’m always available until 6 on the week days on the weekend you guys have my undivided attention to stop by and see your babies. But like I said if you let me know one or two weeks in advance I can most definitely stay over night or longer than usual I can always take days off of work to attend your fur babies! I only attend to your babies at your homes it’s a safe environment for them so they won’t be freaked out by a new environment. When I’m there I will always ask for a schedule on how you want our day to go so I make sure you and your pup have an amazing experience with me. I also love to train dogs so anything you guys want me to train them I will be happy to work on it at every visit!!

“Valerie is the best! My puppy loved her. She’s very experienced, caring and responsible. Lucy is training to be a therapy dog and Valerie did an excellent job using the specific commands Lucy is being taught. Also, Lucy is a challenge at five months and 50 pounds. Valerie had no problem, controlling her in a loving way.”

“All I can say is Rahied is AMAZING!! My 18yr old blind and deaf baby Coco and are beyond blessed to have found him🙏🏾 He was so attentive, sent updates with pictures daily! Caring for a senior dog is very challenging and exhausting but Rahied made this stay so pleasant for my baby. Feed her by hand, let her drink from her bowl by hand, held her when she cried, administered her medication and so much more😫 I felt so comfortable leaving my baby with him, my spirit told me HE was the one & my spirit does NOT LIE! Forever grateful🤞🏾 If you desire compassion, attentive & extra love while being in the care of a sitter, please don't hesitate to book Rahied Hi🫶🏾 If my baby live another season, Rahied is our choice! Thank you again❤️”
“Chris and Cass took great care of our Smokey buddy. They were even willing to give him his daily meds that he needed last minute. We will be booking with them again!”
“Oliver had an amazing time with Whitley and her pup Ollie! They were so cute together, playing and having fun. I was nervous as this was the first time Oliver stayed with someone he didn’t know and Whitley made him feel comfortable and happy. Thank you!”
“Anna did a great job was little Maizie, she is only 7lbs, but Anna’s Ruby was so sweet to her 🥰 Anna was really attentive to Maizie’s eating habits - she is a picky eater and was able to eat her full meal by day two, would love to rebook with Anna again.”
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”
“My girls returned for another stay with LaTash. Once again, they had the best time and were well taken care of. I am so blessed to have found a pet sitter like LaTash. I am extremely comfortable with her taking care of my babies!!!”
“We would definitely recommend Steven for his pet sitting services. He watched our two kittens for a week that needed a little extra care. He sent pictures and videos frequently so we wouldn’t miss the babies too much. Steven has a lot of knowledge and experience with animals and we would absolutely book with him again. Thank you!”
“Tiffany was my main point of contact and she was so sweet and caring with my senior (14yo) husky mix Molly. I received updates each day morning, and night, and she took my Moll Doll on tons of walks. Molly got to sleep on furniture and I can tell she had the time of her life in the new comfy environment. It was such a relief knowing that she was so well loved while I was away that now I feel like I need to take her back for visits to her new favorite home away from home.”
“Our dog had a great time at Queeny’s house. She periodically sent us pictures and responded promptly. Our dog enjoyed playing in her fenced in yard. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Blue had a great stay at Vicki and William’s house! They are both so kind and I felt no worries at all when leaving him in their care. The amount of communication, updates, and photos are amazing and are so helpful when I miss my pup. Their dog Bentley is also very sweet so I’m glad Blue has a friend!”
“Dawn was great! We got updated with pictures and video. Bella really enjoyed her time. I highly recommend Dawn and I will be reaching out to her on our next trip away. Thank you, Dawn 🐾”
“Emily, Jason & Larry were excellent hosts!! Upon my request for a sitter, they suggested a meet & greet between our dogs. They were welcoming and caring about insuring the dogs were compatible. We agreed on letting Nanook stay. They were very communicative about what our dog was up to, how he was getting along with Larry and they sent photos too. After the stay we were surprised to have received a thank you note and a personalized treat in our bag. That was such a sweet touch! We would definitely book with Emily & Jason again! Nanook enjoyed his stay with them and Larry!”
“Audrey did great caring for my crazy corgi 🤪 , my dog really seemed to love her stay! Great communication and very professional as well. We hope to be able to use Audrey in the future!”
“Michelle is awesome! She made me feel very comfortable during our initial meet and greet, and my 7 month old Hound-mix was just smitten. ? Michelle kept in regular contact and sent pictures so I knew my pup was in good hands.”
“This was my first experience using Rover. What a wonderful experience it was knowing my lil man was very well taken care of in the comfort of a loving home. Will definitely be using Julie again on our next trip. Thank you for taking such great care of Brodi and for all the updates and photos during his stay💙”
