“My dog has never been so content returning from boarding. It was evident that Rachael and her family took great care of her. I definitely would not hesitate to send my dog to Rachael again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have five of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a stay-at-home mom to four kids, I’m home and available throughout the day—meaning your pup will always have company, love, and attention. Caring for pets is second nature in my home. Between my five dogs and four kids, there’s always love, play, and activity to go around. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or cozy evening cuddles, pets easily become part of our family rhythm and daily routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep things comfortable and familiar. I make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and given plenty of love and attention—just as if they were my own. I also keep homes tidy and respect any specific instructions, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“My English bulldog loves staying at Heather & Michael's, and they take great care of his needs (prescription dog food, needles twice a day, oral medication). They love him like their own and tolerate all his bad habits. And Heather has been so understanding of changing circumstances when I've needed to cancel or book at the last minute. I'm so glad we found them.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Amy was warm, kind, and incredibly attentive while caring for my dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my baby was in such good hands. Communication was great, and it was clear she genuinely cared. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her services!”
“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”
“Absolute best sitter I've left my GSD with. Hoping to book again soon so he gets more socialization with their pup. Kalani was very accommodating and understanding of my last minute request to book on a holiday weekend and my boys' anxiety that can look like aggression. Great communication and care. Would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!”
“We had such a great experience! She took wonderful care of our puppy and kept us updated with pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. You can tell she truly loves animals. Highly recommend!”
“Emily took great care of my pug Forrest. She sent many messages and pictures daily showing how he was enjoying his stay with her and her family. He enjoyed himself so much that he was reluctant to leave when I arrived to pick him up him up, literally hiding behind Emily so I wouldn’t pick him up. I will definitely use Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great family home environment for their pet when away. A+, 5-stars.”
“Ashley was a very professional, attentive, and caring sitter. We left our dog with her for almost a week, and he came back very happy and tired. (He's still sleeping it off I think!) I would definitely recommend Ashley to others!”
“Donna was wonderful. Our dog Polly stayed for a long weekend and she had a great time. Donna sent pictures throughout the weekend and sent updates about Polly’s stay. We will definitely use her again. Thank you!”
“Faustine did an incredible job watching our high energy Aussie she made sure to send lots of cute pictures and updates and she certainly kept up with our fast paced boy! I highly recommend her for your Future trips and vacations to watch your dog!”
“We had such a great experience leaving our little Luna with Jacob and Willie (his friendly dog!). Jacob was super communicative with little reassuring updates and made sure to provide a cozy and comfortable space for her to stay while we were on vacation. Were really grateful for the experience and would absolutely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for someone to care for their pup!”
“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“Jodie took excellent care of my dog, Gremlin. She made sure he was walked and well-fed. He received a good brushing, along with a change of outfit. Jodie treated him like he was her own. We will definitely be booking again soon!”
“We are grateful for Amanda and her family and their kind care of our dog! Her first overnight stay was a success. We received detailed updates throughout the weekend of how she was doing which helped us know she was comfortable and having fun. Thank you!”
“Ashton was great! Our dog Jack doesn't spend much time with other people and Ashton was very accommodating when our previous sitter (not from rover.com) canceled a week before the appointment. We received pictures and updates throughout the visit, communication was excellent! Thanks again, we look forward to meeting again when the need arises!!”
“Amanda and her family were great with out little Pluto. He loved being around her dog Chai and her wonderful children. We loved it so much that he is going back this weekend. Thank you so much Amanda.”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Heather and her family. They took great care of him and let me know how he was doing. They were able to take him on relatively short notice which I really appreciate. Thanks!”

“Sarah B. Has truly been my cat’s favorite sitter ever! And mine of course. My 14 year old shy cat fell completely in love with her. Sarah is totally responsive and responsible. She takes great photos and writes excellent daily reports. I just hope she will be available next time because she is the best!”
“Jordan did a great job looking after my cat and home! A tree fell and took out power lines leading to my place. Jordan contacted Golden Valley right away rather than telling me about it and leaving it up to me while I was 3000 miles away. I won’t hesitate to contact her first next time I have to travel.”
About: I've always had a cat as a family member & have a deep appreciation for their unique individual personalities. My sweet soul cat (pictured) completed his life cycle last year & I'm interested in sharing my love with others through Rover services. I've house sat for cats & I would love the opportunity to care for your furry friend :) I'm very organized, timely, & love to clean!
“Kali was great! My husband and I left our cat for the first time and were really nervous but her communication while we were away helped ease our anxieties. She even made sure to turn on the A/C during a couple really hot days. Our cat isn’t the easiest cat to get along with but she always tried to take the time to play even when he wasn’t being nice with his claws. I would definitely use Kali again!”
“Emily is extremely friendly and warm. . She has a real passion for animals and a lot of experience. She is easy to work with and excellent at giving updates about caring for your animal(s). We had a great experience in her checking on our beloved cat, Butterscotch!”
“Emily spent a month with our cat Yoyo (Yosemite Sam) while we were away. They became pals. Emily took good care of Yoyo and sent us a photo of him every day. Emily also babysat our indoor and outdoor plants, especially some special ones that we had just planted before our trip. They in great condition. We definitely recommend Emily as a pet sitter and hope she will be available the next time we go away.”
“Nadine did an amazing job with our cat. Lots of playtime and pets when she stopped by for an evening drop-in. She kindly sent videos and pictures too! We hope to use Nadine again in the future!”
About: I have owned a Labrador Retriever, Jack Russell and two German Shepherds and have dog sat many others. I have had twelve years of experience with dog sitting. I will treat your dog like family with lots of love, spending time with them and many walks and adventures to dog parks around the area. I will give them lots of treats. While spending time at your home will treat it as my home with keeping it clean and able to do little stuff around the house such as watering the plants and picking up the mail with no extra cost. I have a flexible schedule, which I am able to pet sit at last notice. I have a dog name Juno who is a six year old Labrador who is friendly and gets along with all dogs. I would like meet and greets just to know the dog before hand and the dog knows me and Juno before we welcome them into our home! We want to create a welcoming home to your dog by not being a total stranger watching them, helping your dog with adjusting as their family is away. I currently work as a nurse so on my days off I am usually at home hanging with Juno and going on walks or playing in the uard I have yard with a river in the back. My dog usually off leash but because of the no fence will keep your dog on leash for safety and lots of walks throughout the day!
About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, starting my pet care career in high school at a doggie daycare, and ending up here, with 6 years of professional experience and the same love of animals I’ve had since the beginning. I do have a full time job that prevents me from doing any jobs between the hours of 7am-4pm Tuesday-Thursday. Friday/Saturday I am available beginning at 2pm, and Sunday/Monday I have open availability. I treat all animals the way I would hope someone would take care of my girls when I go on vacation. There’s nothing more important to me than knowing they’re in good hands with someone who will not only stop by and feed them, but spend time with them, maybe cuddle on the couch or just keep them company. I understand that your pets are family, and I will always treat them as such.
About: Ive lived in NH all my life. I’m married and we have a three year old son. I decided to take on this new journey because I love dogs and animals in general. I have 2 wonderful dogs who are my babies and I love them very much. I’m flexible and reliable. I just enjoy being with dogs. Dogs are such loyal companions always there for you through everything. My favorite part of my day is coming home to see my dogs, tails wagging. I promise your pooch won’t be disappointed in our visits, I look forward to visits etc! Looking to take on as many clients as I can. Afternoons and evenings work best for myself and my family. I would be willing to do some occasional night sitting, weekend sitting if it works with my schedule. I would follow owners instructions and routines for each pet. Assuring that each pet is properly cared for. I look forward to taking care of your pets!
About: Cat Care Experience While my professional background is rooted in K9 training and care, my experience with cats comes from something just as meaningful — being a devoted cat owner and lifelong animal lover. As an adult, my wife and I co-owned and cared for two wonderful cats who were part of our family for about eight years with me and fifteen years for my wife. I cared for them daily — feeding, cleaning, playing, watching their health, and making sure they felt safe, loved, and comfortable in a home shared with our dogs (That was super fun on occasion in the Tradtional sense..haha.) Through them, I learned firsthand that cats need: 🐾 Patience and respect for their space ❤️ Gentle, calm handling 🏡 Consistency in routines to reduce stress 👀 Close attention to changes in behavior or health I may not come from a professional cat-training background, but what I do bring is the heart of a true pet parent — someone who understands how deeply we love our animals and how much it matters to know they’re being cared for with kindness and respect. Because of my lifelong love for animals, I treat every cat with the same level of care, responsibility, and compassion that I’ve given my own and that I’ve carried throughout my years working with dogs. When your cat is with me, they’ll be cared for not just as a client’s pet — but as family.
“Jessica provided a great care of our cat Mimi during the 2 weeks we were gone for the trip. Jessica is very communicative, always was available for any questions or updates on Mimi’s stay with her. We also appreciated a lot that Jessica took the burden of pick up and drop off which helped us tremendously. Whenever we need help with our cat when we are away we will request a booking with Jessica in a heartbeat.”
About: I've been a cat person since I was very little. My first cats came to me in first grade, and I have always made sure to have them myself ever since. I have two purr-babies myself, and they are registered as my emotional support animals, so I know how important our feline friends are to a family. I am capable of administering meds if necessary, and will happily provide lots of photos of your little biscuit-maker while you are away. Rest assured, your kitty will be cared for while you are away.

“Heather and her family are friendly and happy to accommodate whatever pet-sitting needs I have. I like that the dogs get a lot of socialization time with each other, something my dog doesn’t get at home.”
“Our pup was very well taken care of, few hiccups along the way however they were very responsive, and she returned home every day just wiped out from blowing off all of her energy.”
“Alicia is great!! She accommodated my last minute request for daycare and was very easy to communicate with. My puppy had a blast playing - very happy and comfortable when I picked her up. I’d book again with Alicia anytime!”
“Jodie is absolutely amazing! Booked her last minute for two days of daycare for my puppy and she excepted right away. Her updates and communication throughout the day is absolutely awesome. I could not recommend a better person to watch your pet. I will be continuing to use her for all my daycare and boarding needs! If I could give her 10 stars I would!!”
“Alison is great to work with! She was available when I needed someone to watch my dog on very short notice. This is the second time we’ve left our dog with Alison. She messages back quickly with updates and sends photos. She is very flexible with drop off and pick up times which is extremely helpful.”
About: I have cared for puppies, large dogs, small dogs, kittens and cats of all shapes and sizes, chickens and birds, sheep, goats and various farm animals for over 20 years! I care deeply about their happiness and wellbeing whether they're my animals or ones I see/find out and about. I own my own business running an online farm stand so my animals follow me around the farm or find a sunny place to snooze all day everyday! As I manage my own schedule I can slip away multiple times a day with no issue for your pets walks or potty breaks! **For daycare, my cats stay upstairs inside while dogs are here and the chickens are in a coop/run and when they're free ranging, they are within an electric fence, so theres no concern about accidents with dogs with high prey drive. However if your dog is really anxious and unhappy around smaller animals, please let me know, and we may be able to spend the day out and about or out of sights and sound of the farm animals. All the animals safety and comfort are top priority! I can provide play, snuggles, meds or medical care, brushing, food, water, treats, lots of pets or just some company and baby talk for visits and walks. I am an honest and reliable person and I take the care of animals whether mine or otherwise, pets or wild, incredibly seriously.
“Amanda's home was clean, welcoming and well set up for pet care. Amanda's pricing was fair and honest and she was amazing with communication throughout the day. It was obvious that she loves animals and my dog agrees as she was excited and happy on the days that she was in Amanda's care. I highly recommend her!”
“What a wonderful family! Luiz & Patricia are incredibly professional and kind (as are their daughters & pup!) and made my girl feel right at home. She came home exhausted after having spent much of the day running around outside and playing with their dog & daughters. I always LOVE to get updates during a stay, and I received so many fun pictures and videos. I could not recommend them more!!!”

“Lindsey was great, my cousin and I wanted to take my god daughter whale watching as we are from out of state I didn't want to leave my pup at some kennel he had never been to. So I looked up river and found Lindsey, she took Cole to the beach and he loves the water. And sent me pictures. She has a kiddie pool in her back yard. It was completely fenced. Thank you again for watching my pup for those few hours he was tired when we got back to our room.”
“Ashley is pleasant and knows what she is doing with these dogs! She has an ideal yard and home and was willing to show me the environment. She sent me pictures throughout the day and made me feel very comfortable. We can’t wait to work with Ashley again!”
About: I have 14+ years experience in the veterinary field. Learning about animal behaviors, preventative care and physical health is a passion of mine. I am a very well rounded animal enthusiast that loves to stay busy. Some of my extracurriculars include training my Australian shepherd, whether it’s dock diving, agility or overall obedience. I will hold each pet to standards that support good manners, so some training may be associated with my services. I strive to exercise your fur babies intellectually as well as physically. I am very detailed oriented, and consider myself very observant. I’m not afraid to communicate and ask questions regarding your pets’ needs. I would be caring for your pet around my typical work schedule, which is M-F ~8-6pm, but I can always drop in mid day during lunch. Communicating your expectations so I may practice proper time management is important for a successful and stress free pet sitting job. I have a very well socialized 5yo male, 50lb, Australian shepherd, Oshie and he loves to play. Additionally I can provide walks, and play sessions. Hikes are also supported.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was 8. I’ve fostered animals, and helped walk, feed, bathe, supply medicine (supplements and pills) to them for friends, family, etc for a little over 8 years now. I’m very experienced with younger dogs and can provide extensive walks / playtime for entertainment and engagement. I also love working with senior dogs as well, and can help provide a calm, stress free environment for them while their owner is away. I’m currently working part-time from home and have a very flexible schedule! I can do drop in visits, overnight stays, and even long weekends / weeks for vacations and getaways! Early mornings and late nights are no problem for me as well. I don’t mind cleaning up messes or puddles, and I can travel very flexibly if needed! I am OK helping with crate training, and providing a positive environment for any pup to grow in while their family is away! I have a fur baby of my own who is almost 4 years old, and absolutely adores other dogs! He is neutered, house trained, and very relaxed. He has been a very good role model for our youngest puppy in the house.

About: Everyone always asks me why dogs are so nice to me and quiet and I’m not really sure but I love all animals! So I hope you can trust me with yours! I work full time but after work I’m always available usually and on weekends. I’m very lenient towards everyone’s schedules so take your time! Don’t worry I will only be going to peoples homes to pet sit or walk because I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs unfortunately maybe one day when I get my own house though!
About: Owned and taken care of dogs and cats since I was young. Can’t remember a time without having pets! Currently own two crazy pups and two pretty kitties, and can’t wait to meet yours. Have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and everything in between. I am a full time firefighter/EMT, so I only work two 24hr shifts a week, and the rest of the time I get to play with yours, and my own animals! Love to hike or be outdoors with as many pets as possible! If they’re happy, I’m happy! I will follow all rules set for your pet, and be sure to keep their safety at the top of the list! As a pet owner, I can’t imagine something happening to my own animals, and I would never want to let anything happen to yours!
“I came in from our of town for a family gathering and needed a last minute walker for my dog. Jeffery was great with communicating with me for the last minute need. Was great handling Denise (my 2.5 year old had) and they had a nice hour long stroll around the neighborhood. Would recommend”
About: Pet Care Experience — From Horses to Cats to Dogs My life with animals began long before it became a profession. At 14 years old, I started caring for horses — feeding, grooming, riding, exercising, and treating them as family. Horses taught me early lessons in patience, responsibility, and the importance of daily, consistent care. They also showed me how powerful the bond can be when animals are treated with respect and love. By 16, that passion grew into the dog world when I had the opportunity to be mentored by a close friend who was a Police K9 handler. That mentorship changed my life and set me on a path that would define my career. I began training at a K9 school in my hometown in New Hampshire, where I learned the foundations of K9 behavior, obedience, care, and handling of working dogs. I poured everything I had into learning the craft. After a year of dedicated internship and training, I taught my first class at just 17 years old. From that moment, I knew this was more than a job — it was a calling. Over the years, my experience grew into becoming a Police K9 handler in New Hampshire, followed by serving as a trainer and instructor for the NH Police K9 Academy through the Working Dog Foundation. I worked daily with high-drive working dogs and their handlers, focusing on discipline, safety, trust, and performance in real-world environments. After completing my full-time police career, I continued my K9 journey overseas, spending eight years in the Middle East providing private K9 handling and instruction in support of Army operations and Private Security detachments. Working in demanding and high-stress conditions further refined my skills and reinforced the importance of calm leadership, consistency, and deep respect for the dogs that depend on us. At the same time, I never stopped helping everyday families with their pets. Training and caring for family dogs — from energetic puppies to older companions — has always been just as important to me as working with professional K9 teams. I believe every dog deserves structure, patience, and loving guidance so they can thrive as well-behaved members of the family. Alongside my deep dog experience, my connection to cats comes from being a devoted cat owner. My wife and I shared our home with two amazing cats for about eight years, caring for them daily and loving them as part of our family. Living with cats taught me to appreciate their unique personalities, their need for gentle handling, respect for space, and the importance of calm, consistent routines — especially in a home shared with dogs. While my background with cats is personal rather than professional, it comes from genuine love and hands-on care as a pet parent. Through every chapter — horses, dogs, and cats — one thing has never changed: I treat animals as family. Today, with 27 years of experience centered around K9 training, handling, and care, supported by a lifetime of loving animals of all kinds, I bring a calm, confident, and compassionate approach to every pet I work with. Whether your dog needs structured care, your cat needs gentle attention, or your pet simply needs someone who will treat them like their own, I’m here to provide that level of trust and commitment. When you leave your pet with me, you’re not just choosing a sitter or caretaker — you’re choosing someone who has built his life around animals and who will care for yours with the same respect, patience, and love I’ve given my own. I am currently able to accommodate week days and most weekends to assist our communities. I can be available pretty much any time during the day as I own my own company that is newer to the industry it is supporting. 🛡️🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment For me, caring for animals has always been about more than just meeting basic needs — it’s about earning trust, creating calm, and treating every pet with the same respect and love I give my own. With decades of experience around animals — especially working dogs in high-responsibility and high-stress environments — I’ve learned that pets thrive when they feel safe, understood, and cared for with consistency. Whether it’s a high-drive dog, a shy cat, or a senior companion, I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routines, and comfort level. In my care, your pet will have: ❤️ Genuine compassion and patience 🏡 A calm, structured, and loving environment 🦴 Proper exercise, enrichment, and rest 🍽️ Attention to feeding routines and health needs 👀 Close supervision and awareness at all times I believe animals should never feel rushed, ignored, or unsafe. I keep their spaces clean, secure, and peaceful, and I handle every interaction with calm confidence so they know they’re in good hands. Because of my background with working dogs and my life with pets like Aries, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animal with someone else. I don’t take that lightly. When your pet is with me, they’re treated as part of my family — with the highest level of care, respect, and responsibility. Most importantly, I listen to what matters most to you, learning your pet’s daily routines and needs so I can mirror your care and make their time with me feel just like home.
About: I have grown up with animals. For as long as I can remember we owned some type of animal, from fish to goats. We owned them. We always visited my families farms there were cows, horses, pigs and DOGS! I loved the dogs. The dogs and horses were my favorite parts! I was lucky enough to live on my aunts horse farm for a few years and help with the rescue pups that she would foster. She has taught me a lot about working with dogs as well as other animals and how to work with them together and being around each other. I have been dog sitting/boarding for a 10 years now. I have met many different dog breeds and with many different personalities! I would be a great choice for you and your fur babies! Schedule: I work from home as an entrepreneur! This gives me plenty of time to take pups for a walk, swimming, hiking or on an adventure ride! Care: I have been working with animals and dog for 15+ years. Safety if my main concern, for myself and your fur babies! I make sure to follow instructions left without question. While house sitting I ensure to leave a place well kept and more clean then when arriving!

He is contentious, dedicated, and loving to all the people and pets he comes into contact with. I highly recommend his services and happily look forward to working with him again in the future." - Nicole E. "Kae dogsits for me when I go away on business trips or go into Boston for the weekend, and I could not recommend him more highly! He is caring and attentive to my dog; my dog gets so excited to see him. My dog is medium to high energy and Kae always tires her out. He is extremely knowledgable about dogs and dog behavior and has given me several tools to help keep my dog more mentally engaged and less stressed. Kae is punctual, he remembers all sorts of details about every dog, and he is my go-to whenever I need someone. Best dog sitter/walker in the Providence area!" - Kate R. I have worked with a doggy daycare, where I learnt dog behavior, and positive reinforcement training. I have worked in home pet sitting for dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, tortoises, geckos, bearded lizards, salt and fresh water fish, for over a decade. Schedule a meet and greet with your pets! LGBTQIA+ friendly, Disability and Sensory Friendly I am a chronically ill artist who has kept strange hours for a very long time. I can fit your furry (or scaly or feathered) family into my schedule without issue. You can rest assured while I am with your pets that they will be well attended to. A typical visit includes 15-20 minutes of play with your pet depending on energy levels, lots of positive attention and love, feeding and making sure they have access to water and making sure any business is done. As an overnight visitor, often for pets with anxiety or special needs/senior pets, I am with your pet in your home from 10pm-8am, plus visits during any of their usual scheduled feedings.

During work days I walk dogs before work and then get a 3 hour break in the middle of the day where I hike with dogs and cats.

“My dog has never been so content returning from boarding. It was evident that Rachael and her family took great care of her. I definitely would not hesitate to send my dog to Rachael again.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have five of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a stay-at-home mom to four kids, I’m home and available throughout the day—meaning your pup will always have company, love, and attention. Caring for pets is second nature in my home. Between my five dogs and four kids, there’s always love, play, and activity to go around. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or cozy evening cuddles, pets easily become part of our family rhythm and daily routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep things comfortable and familiar. I make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and given plenty of love and attention—just as if they were my own. I also keep homes tidy and respect any specific instructions, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“My English bulldog loves staying at Heather & Michael's, and they take great care of his needs (prescription dog food, needles twice a day, oral medication). They love him like their own and tolerate all his bad habits. And Heather has been so understanding of changing circumstances when I've needed to cancel or book at the last minute. I'm so glad we found them.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Amy was warm, kind, and incredibly attentive while caring for my dog. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my baby was in such good hands. Communication was great, and it was clear she genuinely cared. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her services!”
“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”
“Absolute best sitter I've left my GSD with. Hoping to book again soon so he gets more socialization with their pup. Kalani was very accommodating and understanding of my last minute request to book on a holiday weekend and my boys' anxiety that can look like aggression. Great communication and care. Would recommend her to anyone in a heart beat!”
“10/10 perfect! The care that Charlie received was awesome. He looked so happy in all the photos! Honestly I feel like he is sad I took him away from his new doggie and human friends! Definitely recommend!”
“Emily took great care of my pug Forrest. She sent many messages and pictures daily showing how he was enjoying his stay with her and her family. He enjoyed himself so much that he was reluctant to leave when I arrived to pick him up him up, literally hiding behind Emily so I wouldn’t pick him up. I will definitely use Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great family home environment for their pet when away. A+, 5-stars.”
“Ashley was a very professional, attentive, and caring sitter. We left our dog with her for almost a week, and he came back very happy and tired. (He's still sleeping it off I think!) I would definitely recommend Ashley to others!”
“Donna was wonderful. Our dog Polly stayed for a long weekend and she had a great time. Donna sent pictures throughout the weekend and sent updates about Polly’s stay. We will definitely use her again. Thank you!”
“Faustine did an incredible job watching our high energy Aussie she made sure to send lots of cute pictures and updates and she certainly kept up with our fast paced boy! I highly recommend her for your Future trips and vacations to watch your dog!”
“Luiz and his family took such great care of our dog!! She was treated like she was family and make what could have been a challenging stay into a puppy retreat. We received daily pictures and videos. We will definitely use Luiz again!! Such a great experience!!”
“Megan is absolutely incredible. She treats our dog as if she were her own. She communicates regularly and keeps us informed. So very grateful to have Megan watch our Fina when we are away. Five stars and beyond!”
“We are grateful for Amanda and her family and their kind care of our dog! Her first overnight stay was a success. We received detailed updates throughout the weekend of how she was doing which helped us know she was comfortable and having fun. Thank you!”
“Ashton was great! Our dog Jack doesn't spend much time with other people and Ashton was very accommodating when our previous sitter (not from rover.com) canceled a week before the appointment. We received pictures and updates throughout the visit, communication was excellent! Thanks again, we look forward to meeting again when the need arises!!”
“Amanda and her family were great with out little Pluto. He loved being around her dog Chai and her wonderful children. We loved it so much that he is going back this weekend. Thank you so much Amanda.”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Heather and her family. They took great care of him and let me know how he was doing. They were able to take him on relatively short notice which I really appreciate. Thanks!”
