“Leo seems to have had a wonderful time. His behavior this evening is as if he just had a normal active day. Clearly he was comfortable enough to have cuddled up next to you. And he always enjoys a good walk.”
“Another great visit with Lan for my Labradoodle, Buddy. As always, she was great, taking special care of my little guy while I was away for nearly three weeks. Really appreciated her flexibility when we needed to adjust our return date. It was so good to know he was in good hands and having so much fun playing with her dog, Lucy.”
“Zema loves going to Bethany's house! They spend ample time together going for walks & playing in the yard (weather permitted) and snuggles on the couch. Zema always comes home happy and tired 🙂”
“Aimee and Robert were great with a last minute booking for our nervous girl. In the middle of moving it was so nice to know Ruby was taken care of. She came home relaxed and happy.”
“Dee was the perfect caregiver for our pet. She treated our dog like family. She sent daily pictures and updates, they went on walks and enjoyed visits and attention from Dee's family members. Would definitely recommend and would book again.”
“Dawn cared for our 2 one year old Morkie babies for 10 days over the new year holiday while we were on vacation in Aruba. She sent pictures, videos and text updates almost daily. Our babies looked like they were having a ball with all of their new little doggy friends. They were safe, happy and well cared for. They got lots of attention and love. We’ve never been away from our dogs for more than one weekend since we got them, so it was very stressful leaving them for so long. We didn’t want to lock them up in a kennel, so we took a chance on Rover. Our dogs are very small, so we didn’t want them in a place with larger dogs. After having a meet and greet with Dawn, we felt good about leaving our babies with her. The fact that she only cares for small dogs was the deciding factor. We were extremely happy with the care she provided and will definitely use her again. Our sweet little babies had a fun, play vacation of their own. We highly recommend her.”
“Lynn was awesome with our energetic pup. She immediately seemed to be calm and understanding with him and even was laughing at his silliness within a few minutes of meeting. This was our first time away from him and Lynn made us feel very confident about leaving our puppy with her. She has a great home for dogs and a fenced in area of a big yard. She brought him to dog parks and let him hang near her when he needed more attention. She communicated very well. I am excited for the next time we have an opportunity for our dog to stay with her. I would recommend her to anyone with any type of dog. She has other dogs there regularly, but is somehow able to meet each at their own level as well as bring them all together.”
“Mike did such a great job with our furbaby, Kenzy. We loved getting the picture updates, and came back to a happy, exhausted pup. We will definitely use Mike again.”
“Kiirsten was a great communicator before and during her care of my old, blind dog. I was confident that the dog was in a good place, which made my vacation stress free. Easy drop off and pick up. The experience couldn't have been better.”
“Ali was great and communicated to us throughout our trip perfectly. She was very flexible, and Piper seemed to have a great time with her and her family! Would love to go back there again next time”
“Remy and Kevin were so thoughtful with our two dogs. We could tell our anxious dog was very comfortable and cared for. They took the time to make sure they got the attention they needed and had a great time playing in the backyard. Will definitely be using them in the future!”
“My dog Charlie had a great time with Doc and Heather. They provided daily updates about how he was doing with pictures included. I was able to enjoy my trip knowing Charlie was in good hands. He must have had a good time because he came back happy and tired.”
“Nicole & David were amazing!!!! They took such good care of our newly rescued dog for two weeks. They are well equipped and knowlagable when it comes to integrating dogs into their home. They are exceptional with communication and sent daily photos, videos, and updates. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a loving dog sitter and will absolutely work with them again!”
“Exceptional! Really above and beyond in making both Bailey and her mama comfortable with a new experience. Several walks and plenty of care and focus on understanding my girl. Lots of pictures and videos. Very happy, highly recommend.”
“Maria was a great dog sitter for Sawyer and we’d definitely recommend her! We haven’t used Rover much before, and she made us feel really comfortable with how responsive she was and how much effort she put into sending us picture updates throughout the weekend. Sawyer came home tired and happy, so we know he got lots of love and attention while we were gone! 😊”
“Topsy did amazing with Bernie on her first (and long!) stay. She was very organized and easy to work with, and I could tell has enormous love for animals! I had no worries during my time away from my pup, and I will definitely trust Topsy to care for Bernie again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“James and Jennifer were fabulous hosts to our Coco. This was the first time Coco was away for an overnight and different home so I am sure she was a little nervous and scared. They were so welcoming to us and Coco. Coco had a great stay and we can tell she was loved. We will definitely be using them again when we are in the area.”
“Becca and Marshall took excellent care of my pup! They sent updates and assured me that Rocket was comfortable and happy, and even got to sleep in the human bed! Would recommend Becca, Marshall, and mudflap to other folks looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Jeremie and Kelly were fantastic! They were very communicative and truly made our pup feel right at home. They took care of him over Christmas, and he even came home with a new holiday toy. We will definitely book with them again!”

“Vicki, you’re the best! It’s incredibly comforting to know that our cats are in the best hands while we’re away. The updates and photos are very thoughtful and thorough. Thanks Vicki!”
“Awesome job. Katherine is a great communicator and went way above and beyond with her service. Thank you so much for allowing us to focus on our vacation worry free.”
“We have two cats with one of which who has a medicine she gets every 12 hours, so we needed someone to come at the beginning and end of the day while we were away. It was our first time getting a rover and are so glad we had Jennifer to come check in on our two cats twice a day. I appreciated so much getting a picture every visit and knew they were in good hands and taken care of!!”
“Paige was so sweet with our cats! She was patient and knew how to read their body language. She took the extra time to give them treats and pets and was very thorough. She provided detailed updates and pictures from her visits which were so fun to see while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!”
“Kyle was always prompt for visits to give my cat his medications. He provided great updates regarding how administration went, was patient with my cat, and was respectful to my house! Cannot recommend him enough!”
“Jill was extremely communicative and thoughtful with her visits with my cat! I felt very comfortable and confident that Taco would be well cared for.”
“Amy has watched my cat twice now, and both times went great. She is incredibly thorough and makes sure to send plenty of photos and notes. I feel comforted knowing my cat is in good hands with Amy.”
“Katie was great, she came through on a somewhat last minute request when my prior sitter was no longer available, and made it work! I came home to a pretty mellow kitty and had the ease of knowing she was getting some love while I was away. No complaints!!”
“Olivia was great! It's our first time to use Rover, and we're glad we chose the right sitter. Our kitties loved her and one of them showed his belly which is his sign of approval! One of them vomited (which she cleaned up) and she came back that same night on her own initiative to check on them, which was very much appreciated.”
“Stephanie did a fantastic job looking after our cats while we were away. Plenty of photos and great detailed updates. She seems to genuinely enjoy and care for them 🖤🖤🖤 I appreciated having a cat lover check in on them and give them some love! Great sitter that I will absolutely use again! Thanks Stephanie!”
“Dylan is a kind and attentive cat sitter who not only ensures my cats get the care they need but also treats my house very respectfully cleaning up pet messes as he sees them.”

“Bethany is frequent day care sitter for Tofte. As a separation anxiety pup we are pleased at how comfortable he continues to get there as he becomes more familiar with being there. This time he had the zoomies when we got there because he was so excited to go play in her great fenced-in backyard!”
“This was our first experience using Lynn to provide an afternoon of daycare for our two, 1-1/2 yr old labs Maggie and Willow. Lynn met with us for a visit before we booked this daycare service and we found Lynn to be very knowledgeable, confident, cheerful and pleasant to work with. She did a great job answering all of questions and gave us the time we needed to ask them. On the day of daycare she took extra care in introducing our pups to the other dogs since Maggie can be very timid and a bit insecure. Everything went really well and by all indications Maggie and Willow had a great time. We will certainly book future stays with Lynn.”
“Mike was great about updating me on Koya's first day. She seemed to stick close by his side all day, which is typical of my people-loving dog, and even seemed to not get too spooked with the thunder. I love the fact that she's able to hang out in a home environment and not be overwhelmed with too many other dogs. It was great to get a picture of her sleeping too, which she would never do at a commercial doggy daycare facility. We'll be back!”
“Ro had another wonderful stay with Topsy! He was so excited when we got there he ran right into the house and straight to the backyard so he could play. We always feel so comfortable and happy leaving Ro with Topsy. Ro always has so much fun!”
“Our Aussie/Border collie had a delightful time at doggy daycare every day for a week. Jessica and her husband were very communicative, prompt and sent photos. They were patient working through our dog's anxiety on the second day (when he realized this was not just a one-off play date), and he ended up happy and comfortable the rest of the week, playing all day with their resident dog and another friend. We'd recommend them as excellent dogsitters and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”
“We had such a great experience with Giovana! She was very responsive and kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages. It was clear that Kit was well cared for and loved — Giovana truly treated her like part of her own family. We’re so grateful for her kindness and attention, and we’ll definitely be using her services again!”
“McKenzie is the best thing that’s ever happened for my reactive pup. He is able to go play with other dogs and flourish in her care. She is also skilled with medically needy pups and flexible with her scheduling. The absolute best.”
“Kevin had the time of his life! We’ve tried commercial daycare facilities and he gets super overwhelmed, but he instantly felt at ease here. He was a pooped pup when he got home and clearly had a blast - he even made some new friends! We loved getting all the updates from Emily during the day too - it was so fun to see what he was up to and reassuring for us that it was a great fit, especially since it was his first time. We will definitely be back!”
“As always, my dog had an amazing time with Kara and Adam! They are so sweet and she always is exhausted when she gets back to me. Her kids are so kind to Jovi and I always look forward to seeing all the pictures Kara and Adam take! Thanks again!”
“Lydia does an amazing job caring for our puppy! We started bringing Riley to Lydia when she was about 10 weeks old for the couple of days a week we needed to work outside of the house. Riley always came home happy and worn out. She got plenty of fun, playtime, and naps throughout the day and Lydia sends lots of pictures so you can see how your pup is doing!”
“I can't speak highly enough of Kristine! I took a chance on a day care near my work and sent a request to her the night before needing her. Upon meeting her the next morning, all my apprehensions left! She was genuinely welcoming to me, but more importantly, to my pup, Bella. You know how you kinda wish your pet would look back and wonder why you're leaving them especially at a brand new place? Bella pranced right up to Kristine's house and was ready for the day's adventure. Clearly, I was more nervous than Bella. Kristine sent me an update within the first hour to let me know Bella was doing fine. It was even more exciting to hear that my little Bella was playing well with Kristine's bigger dog, Gio. What a twosome they were! Thank you, Kristine, for making this work emergency of mine doable and caring for Bella so lovingly.”
“We met Takenya for doggie daycare, and our dog had a wonderful day! Takenya LOVES dogs and it shows. Remy immediately took to her and the several photos and videos she sent showed how comfortable he was in her home and with her. He came home happy and tired🥳 Thank you, Takenya for caring so deeply and communicating so well!”
“Carrie is the best! Bear was well taken care of and had so much fun with Willow!! Bear was 100% comfortable going there each day! Thank you, Carrie & Willow - we’ll see you soon!”
About: We lost our 15 year old border collie last November and are looking to welcome some furry friends to our home. Between my husband and I one of us is home at least 4 out of 5 days a week. We have 2 teenagers as well that are looking forward to meeting new pets and helping out with pet sitting. Your pet will get lots of attention while staying in our home! We have open availability to board animals on weekdays and weekends. One of us should be at the home with your animal at all times, so no need to worry about them being lonely! We do not have a fenced yard but have plenty of grass in our front yard for your animal to explore while supervised, and plenty of people to give good walks between the 4 of us!
“Ivy loves going to Krista and the boys! She gets super excited every time and comes home all tuckered out. Krista is great at communicating and asking questions when needed.”

“Katherine was so great taking our fur baby, Griffin, for mid-day walks! I appreciate her great communication, timeliness, cute photos, and genuine care for our pup!”
“Erin was a life saver this week! With my husband out of town for a week and me with my hands full with a three year old and baby, getting out to walk our energetic and LOUD husky was going to be a challenge. Erin was always right on time and such a great communicator. I liked and trusted her immediately and Aurora Dog warmed up to her right away as well. She started waiting at the door for her in the morning. Thank you so much Erin!”
“Emily & Timothy did a great job with our Daisy while we were away on vacaction! Dasiy was staying with my mom, and Emily & Timothy were flexibe, working with my mom for timing Daisy's walks. Daisy can be a stinker on walks, and Emily & Timothy were able to get her out for good, long walks, getting her the exercise she needed during our time away. Thank you Emily & Timothy, you were great!!”
“Isabella was reliable, punctual, and communicative. Isabella sent reports and photos daily. Luna was excited to walk with her every day and came home weel exercised,ready to rest!”
“Carolyn is absolutely wonderful - treats my dog as if she were her own. My dog loves her daily walk with Carolyn. I especially appreciate how she takes into consideration the age and special needs of my dog. Thank you for everything Carolyn!!!”
“Jacqueline was great! She was always precisely on time, handled our very high energy pup with no problems, and brought him back happy & tired out from the walk 🐕 Highly recommend her, and we will be booking her help again in the future.”
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, a bearded dragon, and a whole lot of fish. I have a soft spot for spicy cats as I have one of my own. Currently, live in a space where I can't have a dog but if I could it would be a loveable rescue who loves to play and to go on walks. I've taken care of many friends and family pets over the years and excited to make some new furry (and scaly) friends! Through the summer my schedule is very flexible. I work at an elementary school as a reading tutor so during the school year I am available late afternoons/evenings and weekends. I am organized, outgoing, and friendly and as long as you have detailed instructions I feel confident taking care of your pets in your home.
About: I have an associates degree in Veterinary Technology and worked in the veterinary field for 5 years. During that time I would often watch coworker's and friend's pets including both cats and dogs. I am experienced with giving medications and caring for senior pets who may need a little extra help and care! I am currently working part-time with a schedule that changes week to week. I am always available before 8am and after 7:30pm as well as most weekends. In all of my past pet sitting gigs, I have always tried my best to respect other's homes and traditions. I am very flexible and will always respect any and all wishes when it comes to your home an beloved pets!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and I currently have my own fur baby! I have had experience in house sitting, dog sitting, and dog walking since I was 19 including senior dogs with various health problems. I promise to love your dog like I love my own!

Mondays, Thursdays, and weekends are flexible for early morning, lunch, and evening hours!😊 I have my own 3 year puppy who can keep your fur baby company if needed who is crate trained, so I can crate your dog if needed.

I’ll definitely use Tristan again to take care of my Fergus!”
