“This was our first time using this service and it truly exceeded my expectations. Tori & Zachari were truly wonderful. They were very thoughtful in scheduling a meet and greet with our two dogs to ensure everything would go smoothly during their stay. During the meet and greet they were very mindful of making it a relaxed experience for all and by the time I dropped my dogs off for the visit I could tell they would be in great hands. During their stay, Tori and Zachary were responsive, ensured to give updates, and continued to show how thoughtful they were with their care. We got plenty of pictures showing what an amazing time our doggies had. Our dogs looked happy and relaxed when we picked them up. We will be using Tori and Zachary again for sure!”
“Our dog had a wonderful weekend staying at David's! David took him to a pond to swim and play and sent us a lot of pictures and updates! Will definitely book future stays with David”
“Marilyn was very accommodating to our dog who has seizures. She went above and beyond for him. Our fur baby had a lot of fun and we felt very secure leaving him with Marilyn so we could have a restful vacation of not worrying. I highly recommend her to care for your fur baby. They will have a blast with pup cups and plenty of furry friends to play with. She kept us informed with a lot of photos and updates. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Our dogs had such a great time with Katrin! She has plenty of outdoor space for them to explore and truly treated them as if they were her own. She even mixed their meals with rice bc they had upset stomachs! She gave us plenty of updates and pictures, and our dogs always looked so happy in the photos. We will definitely book with her again!!”
“My husband and I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Teresa. We did an initial meet and greet and knew her and her family would take good care of Onyx. Teresa kept us updated with texts and pictures throughout the stay. She took the time to ask questions to learn what Onyx liked and didn't like, and what his normal routine was. We would recommend Teresa and use her services again in the furture. We're so glad Onyx was able to stay with her loving family who showed him the same attention he receives at home.”
“Amanda and her husband were wonderful sitters for my pup. They stayed in constant communication and were flexible with my schedule. I felt very good with my choice to work with them and would highly recommend them.”
“Once again, Erin and Dave have gone above and beyond while taking care of my pup. My dog was well taken care of, loved like their own, and Erin was very responsive during the entire stay. My pooch loves staying with Erin and Dave, it’s her own little vacation!”
“Ash was very happy to see me when I picked her up, which to me meant she had a GREAT time!!!! Lauren and family were wonderful and treated Ash as one of their own!?? I would have loved more pictures and more updates (gone eleven days), but that’s me (missed my baby). And it’s hard to find the “perfect balance” - - keeping owners informed and disturbing their vacation. However, ANY TIME I reached out to Lauren she was quick to reply and many times with pictures. Will use again!”
“This was the first time our pups were away from us on a trip, so we were a little nervous as to how they would act, but Scott and Alyse were awesome! We could tell how comfy they were and how safe they felt by the pics. They truly care about the animals in their care. We loved the multiple pics they sent every day. They had a lot of fun! We will definitely be reaching out in the future for their services!”
“Mary is fantastic! She took both my dogs for a week and they were cared for in a safe place with exercise, tons of snuggles, a beautiful fenced yard, and the company of her two friendly dogs. The easy communication with Mary and her easy going attitude makes you feel like you are leaving your dogs with a trusted friend you’ve known for years . This has been the most positive pet sitting experience I’ve ever had using Rover. Thank you Mary for looking after the doodles like your own.”
“Even though my booking was so last minute, Bruna was able to accommodate me and my Koa. Bruna was responsive and kept in touch with me regarding Koa. I really felt at ease knowing my pup was being well taken care of. I highly recommend Bruna to anyone who would want their pet to be well taken care of!”
“Jade was the perfect dog sitter for my chihuahua. She sent many cute photos and frequent updates. Jade was very flexible and an excellent communicator. I would book her again and would recommend her to friends!”
“Very pleasant experience, Violette took exceptional care of Benji and kept in touch with pictures and videos. I could tell by the pictures and videos that he was having a great time with her and the other dogs. Will definitely use Violette again! Highly highly recommended!!!”
“Tracy was absolutely wonderful to work with. This was our first time leaving our pup with her and it was clear from the moment they met it was going to be a great fit. Tracy communicated frequently to let us know how things were going in addition to sending pictures. It was clear that our little dog was getting the same loving treatment and attention she would at home. It’s never fun to leave your pup behind - but leaving them with Tracy makes it almost easy!!”
“Caroline was wonderful. She’s calm and seems very easy going. Our dogs are quite hyper but she dealt with them very gently. We appreciate her helping us, even when our one dog had last minute surgery so she had to administer meds. Definitely would recommend!”
“We just left our dog, Mapo, with Emily, and we couldn’t be happier! Emily sent regular updates, complete with adorable pictures that clearly showed how much fun Mapo was having! When it was time to pick her up, Mapo seemed so comfortable she didn’t even want to leave. Emily was also incredibly flexible with our schedule, which we really appreciated. Thank you, Emily, for making Mapo feel so at home! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter!”
“Olivia and her husband took such a good care of my dog (her name is Olivia too, hehe). She was such a patient caretaker and was understanding of her personality as an anxious dog. I’m so glad I found her and I highly recommend her.”

“Ashley was fantastic!!! I was really nervous leaving my kitties for almost two weeks, since I have never left them so long. Ashley really reassured me at our meet and greet visit and I could just tell that she was going to do a great job. She came over twice a day and I got a nice little report card and pictures from each visit, so I know they were well taken care of. She even cleaned up several messes from my older sick cat and took the trash out on her last visit. I HIGHLY recommend Ashley and I would not hesitate to use her again if the need arose. She is a competent, reliable pet sitter!!!”
“Misty is the best sitter we’ve ever had, except for family!! The kitties really do love her in their cat way!!! She gives all to our babies and we never worry when she’s here! Love her!!”
“Teresa did a wonderful job taking care of our menagerie for a week while we were gone. We have 1 dog, 3 cats, chickens, a bunny and fish tanks, which can be a lot for some pet sitters, but Teresa did a great job. Will continue to use her for future trips :)”
“Kristen did amazing with our cats. She went out of her way to try to find them when they were hiding to ensure they got their food! She sent tons of pictures and was super respon”
“Caitlin was so attentive and caring with our home and pets. She definitely loved them as her own and gave us wonderful updates and took the time they needed. We will be reaching back out to her in the future. It’s difficult to find someone you can trust and she is very kind as well as trusting. Thank you again so much again”
About: I've had animals ever since I can remember. Big, small, smaller, just about anything you can think of I've had. I take pride in making sure all animals around me are happy and cared for. I can care for dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and any small animal from hamsters to bunnies. I'm currently searching for a part-time job, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your animals. I love to be around animals, more than people. So, I've got time to take long walks and excellent care of all your animals. I always take my pups out on a leash. They are trained to go into their crates when we leave. All of my animals get plenty of exercise, lots of toys, and all my love. I can assure you I'll take extra special care of your animals, just like I do mine.
“What an absolutely amazing experience. My cat was care for, loved on, and I received so many wonderful pictures. I’m always nervous to leave her since she has separation anxiety but she was calm and happy when I got home like I was never gone! Will definitely be using them as my pet sitter from here on out!!”
About: I have taken care of my friends and neighbors pets countless times while they were away. I have also owned two dogs since I was twelve so I'm really great with pets! I am currently a stay at home wife so I have lots of flexibility! I will make sure your animals get the best care ever! Although, I am not able to care for pets in my own home I can take care of them in yours. I enjoy going to local parks and being outside so I would love to be outside with your pet.
“Fred had a long-term stay with David and his family while we were in the middle of a cross-country move. He had a meow-velous time and was returned to us happy and with new toys. Dave's kids treated him like one of their own and Fred loved his time with them. We were so relieved to have a comfortable, caring home-away-from-home so gave us piece of mind so that we could concentrate on selling our house, packing it up, waiting for the new house, move in and unpack -- a two-month process that avoided a lot of trauma for our cat and worrying for us. So happy that Dave was such a good fit!”
About: I’ve had cats growing up. My current cat was a bottle baby and she is a thriving queen! I am use to indoor, outdoor, and indoor/outdoor cats. I also worked at a pet store that had cats up for adoption and I cared for them as well. I also have experienced cats giving birth so if you have a pregnant cat I am not new to caring for them.
About: I've always loved cats. I had cats growing up in New York, a house full of cats. My mother was allergic to cats so until she passed I wasn't able to have any cats of my own. But now we have two cats. I watch them when my family's out of town. I feed them breakfast and dinner. I play with them. I pet them. I love on them and most importantly I treat every cat with the upmost respect like they are little people.

“Tori and Zachary watched our dog for the day at their home. He fit in great with their own dogs. He loved running around a fenced in backyard, and came home nice and tired. We will gladly use them again.”
“Was lucky enough to find a family who treated Lily as well as they did. Teresa was always available and when my schedule changed she was accommodating with last minute changes. Lots of outdoor play and she would send me updates throughout her stay. If I am ever in the area again I will 100% look her up to watch Lily.”
“David was a great sitter and I couldn't have asked for more! He updated me daily and sent pictures. I will definitely consider David again in the future and would recommend him to anyone.”
“Scott is a great sitter for us, and Blue really enjoys visiting him. I requested a doggy daycare day, and he responded quickly to let me know he would be available. I love working with Scott on Rover; it is convenient and easy.”
“Potato can require some help managing his energy and engaging appropriately in new situations. David talked us through his ideas of plans A and B and kept us updated. Thanks to his careful attention, Potato ended up having a fantastic day. He came home happy, relaxed, and absolutely exhausted! A raging success.”
About: I’m an experienced and attentive dog caregiver who truly loves spending time with animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for many dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have a large, fully fenced yard that gives dogs plenty of room to run, play, and explore safely. I’m very observant and hands-on, so pet parents can feel confident that their dogs will receive lots of attention, supervision, exercise, and affection throughout their stay. I work from home and have plenty of time and attention to give to your dog(s). I wake up early so we can get outside before it gets too hot. Happy for short or long stays! I have an acre fenced yard that is reinforced every few inches that is full of fun and smells and space to run. They will always be supervised, and indoors there is lots of cozy spots to lay and/or cuddle.
About: For nearly 20 years, caring for animals has been one of my greatest joys. I have 19 years of pet care experience, including 15 years as a devoted cat owner, and currently care for a flock of chickens and an angora rabbit on our peaceful two-acre woodland property. I offer boarding and doggy daycare in a calm, home-based environment where dogs can enjoy plenty of supervised outdoor time, new scents to explore, and lots of individual attention. Our chickens are securely fenced in their own area, and our rabbit is safely housed in the garage, allowing visiting pets to relax comfortably in their own space. I understand that every pet is unique. Whether your dog loves adventure and play or prefers a quiet place to nap, I’ll work to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. For cat owners, I also offer home visits so your feline friends can stay happy and stress-free in the comfort of their own home. When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like family—not just a booking. You’ll receive attentive care, regular updates, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pet is in experienced, caring hands. Pet care is naturally woven into our daily life. As a homeschooling family, I have the flexibility to provide attentive care, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long stretches. We live on a peaceful two-acre woodland property and maintain a home where animals are loved, respected, and considered part of the family. Caring for animals is already part of our routine, from tending our flock of chickens to caring for our angora rabbit. My wife and I are proud to provide a welcoming, inclusive environment for all families, including LGBTQ+ families, and we strive to create a safe, respectful space for everyone. Our 8½-year-old daughter is a budding farmer and fellow animal lover who has grown up helping care for animals with kindness and respect. Together, we’ve created a home environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and engagement. Because I work from home and homeschool, I’m able to adapt to each pet’s needs and schedule, helping them feel comfortable, secure, and right at home during their stay. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. We have a spacious, open home with no indoor pets, allowing visiting dogs to settle in comfortably and enjoy plenty of personal attention. Our property spans two peaceful wooded acres, providing a calm environment away from busy roads and heavy traffic. Our resident animals—a flock of chickens and an angora rabbit—are securely housed in separate fenced or enclosed areas and do not interact with visiting pets. We also maintain a fenced garden area, helping ensure clear boundaries throughout the property. While our yard is not fully fenced, all outdoor time is carefully supervised. Dogs will be leashed during walks and outdoor adventures, and I closely monitor all activity to ensure their safety. Guests can enjoy plenty of fresh air, woodland strolls, sniffing opportunities, exercise, and enrichment while remaining under attentive supervision. For in-home cat visits, I follow each family’s instructions carefully, maintain your cat’s routine, and ensure your home is left secure after every visit. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I believe safety starts with attentive supervision, clear communication, and treating every animal as if they were my own.
“Randy is an outstanding dog sitter! He’s friendly, professional, and incredibly flexible with scheduling, making him a reliable choice for any pet owner. Our dogs loved him, and we highly recommend his services for a stress-free experience!”
“My dog Finley was so happy to see Laura every morning and so sad to leave her house! He really bonded with her and her dog Marley despite his separation anxiety, and I’m so grateful for the positive experience they gave us!”
“It was my pup’s first time with a sitter. He’s usually nervous around new people. But not here, he was peppy and playful coming home. The next time going he ran right in like a reunion with old pals. Very impressed.”
“Bruna took great care of my dog Sky! He had an amazing time with her, and I really appreciated the timely updates, photos, and videos throughout his stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Bruna for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“Jack loves to visit Amanda! Our six month old Australian Cattle Dog gets excited when he realizes we are near to Amanda’s place. He get to play with other dogs and returns home tired and happy. He will continue to have “play days at Amanda’s “ because he enjoys it so much.”
“Our experience with Kenan was just what we needed. We have a highly anxious rescue boy with severe separation anxiety, yet we knew from the moment we met Kenan that our dog was in good hands. Kenan greeted Hank (our dog) by sitting on the ground and allowing Hank to see that he was safe. Kenan also took Hank and his new friend, Paco (another dog) on a long walk on their beautiful farm, and knew when it was time to provide some down time. Hank came home happy and exhausted, and he will undoubtedly be returning to the farm!”
About: Have had at least 1 pet for over 25 years. Wife and I are recent empty nesters that went from having 4 cats and 2 dogs to a Lab and 1 cat when the last of our 4 kids moved out. We love all animals and will treat them like our own. I am a public school teacher, so I am fortunate enough to have summers off. So my availability is very open even a short notice. We have a dog park for them to play at our place. Our Labrador Bailey will be put in crate until they get acquainted if needed. Bailey is friendly as can be, however I know animals can get nervous in new environments. If coming to your residence I will request and do’s or dont’s to ensure your animal is taken care of up to your expectations and above. I am a public school teacher, so I am fortunate enough to have summers off. So my availability is very open even a short notice. Love all animals and will freaky all animals as if they are my own. We would be honored to treat your animal to a nice vacation as you enjoy yours. My wife and I are retired and have a very flexible schedule. We are happy to accommodate any requests or special needs you may have. We cater to each individual animals personality. We try to maintain and provide care as close to wider the animal is used to in a daily basis in order to minimize any stress.
“Teri was AMAZING! My dog Delilah is always super anxious around sitters, but she settled in very quickly with Teri. Teri was sweet, loving, kind, and gentle with my baby girl. Definitely a good pick!”

“This is our first time using Ashley to let our dog out in the middle of the day. She is fantastic! Our dog is weary of strangers and Ashley handled the situation really well- she went at his pace and spent some extra time with him. She sent a lot of photos and a detailed description of her time with Rowan. I would definitely use her again!”
“Misty is truly amazing and really proactive with our pups. Truly a professional. We had a toenail issue during one visit and she sent me photos so I took Wolfie to the vet to get evaluated and Misty later texted to see how he was doing post-visit. The injury was his fault…chasing a squirrel and lost footing in the gravel. I know some people may find it odd to use this app but it’s legit. We receive texting and picture notifications with report cards during each visit. You won’t regret it! :-)”
About: Hi! I love all animals and pets. I grew up with guinea pigs, hamsters, and gerbils at home and have pet sat for cats and dogs since I was a kid. Since 2020, my family has been involved in a service dog organization. We have fostered and helped train and care for numerous puppies and adult dogs. In addition to puppy training, I also have experience with reactive dogs and giving pills. I'm comfortable with various energy levels and temperaments. I can follow specific routines, reinforce training, and provide both physical activity and mental stimulation to keep your dog happy and healthy. I am currently enjoying summer break and working part time, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Cuddling with pets or getting outside for a walk would be easy and great additions to my day! I cannot board pets due to roommate allergies, but I am happy to care for your pet in your home. I am currently on summer break so my schedule has a lot of flexibility, including during the week and over weekends. I will strive to build trust with you and with your pet, and will communicate thoroughly and diligently. Doing a meet and greet and covering and special needs and preference will help me care for your pet the way that you need! I will exercise your pet or cuddle with them. I will walk your dog in your neighborhood, take them to a trail or to a park, play with them using their favorite toys, and help with training. The most important thing for me is that you and your pet are both happy and comfortable!
About: Hi there! I’ve had pets my entire life and currently have a 6 year old Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix, so I’m no stranger to high energy dogs that need structure, exercise, and plenty of mental stimulation. Through caring for my own dog and helping friends and family with theirs over the years, I’ve gained experience with everything from daily walks and feeding routines to enrichment, playtime, and providing extra patience for anxious or reactive pups. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. One of the perks of working freelance is having a flexible schedule! That means I can often accommodate daytime walks, drop-ins, and last-minute requests. I love spending time with animals, so getting to care for pets throughout my week is something I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I’ve been trusted by friends and mutual friends to care for both their homes and pets over the years, so I understand how important that trust is and don’t take it lightly. I treat every home with respect, provide regular updates, and strive to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I’ve pet sat my friends animals, and they’ve had so many! Senior dogs that have accidents and have behavioral issues. Exotic pets, of many kids. Every morning, I fill the cat and water bowl in my room, weekly I clean the bowls. For my dogs, whenever my parents don’t feed them cause they are out, I feed them and fill their water. I brush their coats, and try to give them baths every few weeks or so! However the pet parents would like, but I care for what is best for their health. I understand each pet is different and needs different things. I can bathe the animals depending on behavior, my right leg doesn't haven't as much feeling since surgery and cant handle a lot of big pressure.

I am fully experienced in administering medications—whether it’s pills, liquids, or specialized care—and I am highly attuned to the subtle changes in a senior pet's comfort and behavior.
About: I’ve had animals of many kinds from tiny to huge growing up. I’d normally house sit for family and friends until I decided to join the Rover crew.

I have a huge soft spot for making your pets the happiest they can be while they are with me!

They will always be my #1 priority and will be in the best hands.

About: Hi there! My name is Hayley and I have an extreme love and passion for ALL animals! Since I was a baby and got my first cat at 6 weeks old, I have grown up in a household full of animals with everything from cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, you name it, and those animals have taught me so much, enough that I want to give back to the local community and their animals! My specialties are with cats and dogs of any age, though if you have another animal in need of service, I am open to anything and ready to learn! Currently, I have two dogs (Jack Russells who are 2 and 8 yrs old) of my own that I have raised since they were both 8 weeks old. I have knowledge in feeding, medication management, daily exercise, enrichment activities such as tricks, routine care (bathing animals), hygiene maintenance, potty training, and as always, I strive to have strong, reliable communication with owners of your furry friends! I specialize in cats and dogs BUT if you are need of services for another animal, please dont hesitate to reach out as I am willing to help, learn whatever I need to, and give some extra love to your pet! AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th. Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ Mon-Sun: 8am-2:30pm (schedule varies but I will try my best to work something out with you!!) Meet and Greets: Scheduled meetings BEFORE desired sitting dates; I come to your home to get to know you, your fur babies, and the required schedule/rules. (I leave this up to the client's preference but I usually recommend it!) (CAN provide services before/after hours when requested!!) *AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th.* Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ As I previously mentioned, I have two dogs (both Jack Russells) of my own that are 2 and 8 years old. I strive to maintain a clean space and comfortable for my pets where they can relax and follow their usual routines with no worries. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide daily exercise and playtime, and ensure their safety by always supervising. They have designated rest areas (although I do allow animals on furniture), plenty of enrichment activities/toys, and lots of affection of course! I also have a large yard where my dogs love to run around and play with toys (when outside, they are always supervised) and a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks! I am always keeping my eyes on them, making sure they are healthy, eating/drinking, and exercising correctly. In a clients home is a bit different as this is not my personal space. I tend to follow the routine/schedule exactly as written and complete the usual duties such as feeding, walking, playtime, waste/litter cleanup, etc. I keep the home clean, ensure safety over the property and animals, and provide regular updates and photos to owners during each visit. I always double check and make sure all pets are comfortable, safe, and have everything they need in their space before I leave.

When I pets sit for you. I take care of your dog or cat like they are my own. I also leave your house in a better condition than I found it.

“So professional and helpful!! Highly recommend! David really went above and beyond, taking JuneBug on a nice long walk down along the river, and including lots of photos of her smiling face.”

About: I have raised many different types of dogs for 15+ years. For the last 5 years, I have housed many different animals in need. I have trained puppies, as well as nervous, and abused dogs. I make sure my home is a very welcome environment for animals of all kinds. Like my husband likes to say, I want a petting zoo in life. I currently work part-time in a pawn shop and full time mom to an adorable little toddler. We love being able to be around and care for animals as much as we can. I go on holidays maybe once or twice a year so I’m always around willing to help train or even just be a companion to your furry friend while you’re away I have an open yard with plenty of space to run around. I also have crates within the house just in case they need to be crated too. I have 3 adult dogs that roam free and are very friendly, as well as 3 puppies, and a 2 cats inside my house as well too. But it’s very rare my cats will come out during the day if I’m housing a dog inside.

“This was our first time using this service and it truly exceeded my expectations. Tori & Zachari were truly wonderful. They were very thoughtful in scheduling a meet and greet with our two dogs to ensure everything would go smoothly during their stay. During the meet and greet they were very mindful of making it a relaxed experience for all and by the time I dropped my dogs off for the visit I could tell they would be in great hands. During their stay, Tori and Zachary were responsive, ensured to give updates, and continued to show how thoughtful they were with their care. We got plenty of pictures showing what an amazing time our doggies had. Our dogs looked happy and relaxed when we picked them up. We will be using Tori and Zachary again for sure!”
“Our dog had a wonderful weekend staying at David's! David took him to a pond to swim and play and sent us a lot of pictures and updates! Will definitely book future stays with David”
“Marilyn was very accommodating to our dog who has seizures. She went above and beyond for him. Our fur baby had a lot of fun and we felt very secure leaving him with Marilyn so we could have a restful vacation of not worrying. I highly recommend her to care for your fur baby. They will have a blast with pup cups and plenty of furry friends to play with. She kept us informed with a lot of photos and updates. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Our dogs had such a great time with Katrin! She has plenty of outdoor space for them to explore and truly treated them as if they were her own. She even mixed their meals with rice bc they had upset stomachs! She gave us plenty of updates and pictures, and our dogs always looked so happy in the photos. We will definitely book with her again!!”
“Amanda and her husband were wonderful sitters for my pup. They stayed in constant communication and were flexible with my schedule. I felt very good with my choice to work with them and would highly recommend them.”
“Once again, Erin and Dave have gone above and beyond while taking care of my pup. My dog was well taken care of, loved like their own, and Erin was very responsive during the entire stay. My pooch loves staying with Erin and Dave, it’s her own little vacation!”
“Ash was very happy to see me when I picked her up, which to me meant she had a GREAT time!!!! Lauren and family were wonderful and treated Ash as one of their own!?? I would have loved more pictures and more updates (gone eleven days), but that’s me (missed my baby). And it’s hard to find the “perfect balance” - - keeping owners informed and disturbing their vacation. However, ANY TIME I reached out to Lauren she was quick to reply and many times with pictures. Will use again!”
“This was the first time our pups were away from us on a trip, so we were a little nervous as to how they would act, but Scott and Alyse were awesome! We could tell how comfy they were and how safe they felt by the pics. They truly care about the animals in their care. We loved the multiple pics they sent every day. They had a lot of fun! We will definitely be reaching out in the future for their services!”
“Mary is fantastic! She took both my dogs for a week and they were cared for in a safe place with exercise, tons of snuggles, a beautiful fenced yard, and the company of her two friendly dogs. The easy communication with Mary and her easy going attitude makes you feel like you are leaving your dogs with a trusted friend you’ve known for years . This has been the most positive pet sitting experience I’ve ever had using Rover. Thank you Mary for looking after the doodles like your own.”
“Very pleasant experience, Violette took exceptional care of Benji and kept in touch with pictures and videos. I could tell by the pictures and videos that he was having a great time with her and the other dogs. Will definitely use Violette again! Highly highly recommended!!!”
“Caroline was wonderful. She’s calm and seems very easy going. Our dogs are quite hyper but she dealt with them very gently. We appreciate her helping us, even when our one dog had last minute surgery so she had to administer meds. Definitely would recommend!”
“We just left our dog, Mapo, with Emily, and we couldn’t be happier! Emily sent regular updates, complete with adorable pictures that clearly showed how much fun Mapo was having! When it was time to pick her up, Mapo seemed so comfortable she didn’t even want to leave. Emily was also incredibly flexible with our schedule, which we really appreciated. Thank you, Emily, for making Mapo feel so at home! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter!”
“Olivia and her husband took such a good care of my dog (her name is Olivia too, hehe). She was such a patient caretaker and was understanding of her personality as an anxious dog. I’m so glad I found her and I highly recommend her.”
“Camila and Lino took amazing care of our doodle pup for the weekend when we needed last minute help. They were very attentive to her needs and kept us informed with pictures and updates. Very positive experience and we recommend them with full confidence.”
“Teri is amazing, she took such good care of Ollie, he looked so happy when we picked him up. Teri sent us video and pics he warmed up with Teri in just a few hours, that is very unusual for him. Teri was able to trick him int taking his medicine, also difficult. Thank you Teri for taking such good care of but m while we attended our daughter’s wedding in Durham!”
“Amy is the best! My dog had a wonderful stay- he got lots of cuddles and got to play in her yard. He came back exhausted from all the fun. She sent lots of pictures and was super easy to communicate with.”
