Sydney is a velcro dog & received all the snuggles she is used to getting at home while staying with Britney & her family.”
“I couldn't have asked for a better experience with the dog sitters who took care of my two furry companions. Their daily picture updates were a delightful touch that kept me reassured and connected throughout my time away. It was evident that they genuinely cared for my dogs' well-being, as each snapshot captured their happiness and comfort!”

“We had such a great experience with Nataliya and her family. They took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated the whole time, which I really appreciated. When my dog wasn’t feeling well, they were especially attentive and caring, and it honestly gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell they truly care and treated my baby like part of their family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, reliable care.”
“Reviews don’t lie! Lynn and her husband Marty took such great care of our Frida. They stepped in last minute after our original sitter canceled just a day before our trip, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. They kept us updated with daily photos, and Frida was clearly SO happy and comfortable. Thank you, Lynn, for all the amazing care and love you gave to Frida—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“Bayan was such a friendly host that communicated extremely well. Super fast replies! Our dog stayed with her for about a week over Christmas break and she continuously gave us photo/video updates. We’ll definitely use her again!”

“Best choice ever! I left my four month old Cavapoo Mylo with Jenelle and he absolute loved his stay with her! Bring that it was my first time having to leave Mylo alone for two day, Jenelle sent me updates and was patient with Mylo as he is still in training. She gave us the peace of mind that our little pup was happy and well taken care of. Mylo will definitely be coming back soon!”
“Thank goodness for John. The original dog sitter canceled last minute due to unforseen circumstances, and John was able to take care of our boy without problems. He sent updates and made sure he was happy.”
“Marisol and John were the best to take care of our pups! They are so sweet and caring. They have an amazing fenced backyard! Our pups ran their hearts out everyday! My dogs always try to leave in a hurry from a sitter, but this time they didn’t want to leave. Our pups love them; I think more than they love us.. lol .. Marisol and John are very attentive and have a very warm household. The entire family is awesome!”
“I have great experience with Pam for the first time, she is amazing! She was fantastic about communications and always takes the time to send you an update and photos on how your cat is doing. She made me feel less anxious about leaving my cat with someone new while i was away. I would definitely use her again.”
“So glad I found Brittany and Benji! Felt comfortable right away leaving my beloved furry friend with her ! My dog loves her and has a blast playing with her dog Benji! Communication was responsive and friendly all throughout my dog’s stay. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time we used Rover and Jennifer. Our experience with both was great. Jennifer was so caring and Judge had a great time while there. We would definitely use her again and recommend her as well.”
“We would give 10 stars if we could! Tricia had our Labrador Retriever/Catahoula Leopard mix Lenny for a little over a week and it was the first time we had ever left him anywhere. At our first meeting, it was clear that Tricia has a tremendous amount of experience and know-how when it comes to dogs, and I knew immediately that we were in great hands. She calmed our nerves and assured us that she would keep us updated while we were away. She helped our guy settle into a routine quickly and she did an extraordinary job handling his food issues (we sent pre-made table food for her to give him). While we were away, she was an excellent communicator and sent us various pictures of him during different times of the day. He looked so happy that we were afraid he wouldn't want to come home! When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, clean, and showed obvious affection towards Tricia. We are so incredibly relieved that we found her to watch Lenny if and when we need to travel without our boy. With gratitude, from Laura (Lenny's Mom).”

“Sarah was excellent! She sent multiple pictures every day not only of my cats but also feeding station shots, etc to give me a high level of comfort. My two cats clearly loved her based on the pictures and even my very shy cat started greeting her at the door. I found Sarah to be highly responsible, easy to work with and a real pet lover! I would definitely use Sarah again.”
“Joseph was absolutely fantastic with my cats! He even got an extremely shy cat who never comes out for anyone to approach him within the first few days - she's never warmed to anyone that fast before. He was always friendly and punctual, with lots of photos to show for it. The cats are really happy and so am I!”
“Arabella took great care of my two cats while I was away for the long weekend! She followed all instructions and stayed a bit longer to clean up after them. She was very easy to correspond with and she sent photo updates. I would ask Arabella to watch my cats again!”
“This is the second time that we have used Andrew to drop in on our cat while we are away. Each time he has sent amazing pictures and given great updates for us so we would not worry while away. He is always quick to respond, and we know that he is going to care for Buggy just like we do. I definitely recommend booking with Andrew and know we will continue anytime we are away!”
“Alexa was fantastic with watching my cat for a long weekend. I got plenty of picture updates and she was so communicative throughout the weekend! Will definitely be hiring her again!”
“We had a great experience with Allie! She took such good care of our cat and kept everything so easy and stress-free. Communication was smooth, and she was always easy to reach. We’re very happy with her service and would definitely recommend her!”
About: A dedicated cat lover at heart, happiest when surrounded by purrs and paws. From mastering the perfect head scratch to ensuring every meal is top-tier, I’m fully committed to giving my feline friends the absolute best care, comfort, and love they deserve.
“Avital was great my Moonbelle. It was my first time leaving her and was very nervous. Avital reassured me by sending me pictures daily and updating me on her visits. They had a lot of playtime. Thank you so much! Moonbelle and I appreciated having her take care of her while I was away.”
“Pam was great, very timely visits and lots of updates. My kitties looked very content in their daily photos and I felt like they were in very good hands while we were away. Definitely highly recommend and will hire again!”
“Samantha does a great job and my cat is very comfortable with her. Both times she sat for my cat she made sure to spend plenty of time socializing snd playing with her. She has been well cared for while I was away.”
“I have too many adjectives to describe Colleen. She was extremely trustworthy, communicative, accommodating, caring, thoughtful, kind, responsible and prepared. I always stress when I go away and leave my girls but Colleen alleviated that feeling almost entirely. She even stayed longer than needed the first night. I am very happy with how my girls were treated and will definitely pick Colleen as my sitter next time.”
About: My very first pet was a cat, and my love and understanding of cats continues to grow with me. From spontaneous antics of kittenhood to administering medication in their senior years, I’ve seen many cats through it all and look forward to meeting many more.
About: I have had a pet by my side since the day I was born. Pets are family and they deserve to be treated as such. Specifically, I have cared for other pets the last 7 years; feeding and cleaning fish tanks, overnight stays combined with daily dog walks and changing cat litter and cleaning their coats. To care for other's pets is a privilege that I do not take lightly, there is trust and commitment needed. I want to allow individuals to feel comfortable that their pet is cared for in times when they are unable to do so themselves. Above all else if a pet needs care, I want to provide them with a friendly face, playful affect and calm presence to ensure successful care treatment. I am currently working a full-time job that requires me to work 8:30am-4:30pm Monday-Friday. I occasionally work 1 day of the weekend and will provide full schedule is a service is requested. I will provide open and honest communication with client and maintain a flexible schedule outside of work hours. Currently I am unable to board pets in my home. It is something I hope can happen later in life at a different residence. In the client's home, I will care for their pet as they would like me to, ultimately wanting the pet to maintain their normal schedule as best as possible.
“Hansa is by far the best catsitter i’ve known. She is more than just a catsitter, because she goes above and beyond as though they are her own cats. Her care for then is unmatched. She is so friendly, so considerate and respectful, and her constant communication sets her apart from others. My cats love her because they truly feel loved by Hansa. She deserves 10 stars, not just 5!!”
About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and experience caring for many different pets, including cats, rabbits, birds, and dogs. With my previous vet tech experience, I understand how important patience, gentle handling, and attention to detail are when caring for animals. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure cats feel safe and comfortable in their home environment. I understand that every cat has a different personality, and I always take the time to build trust and provide calm, attentive care.
“Wendy was amazing! She took excellent care of my cat, I appreciated her so much! She made sure my fur baby was happy. She sent me lots of pictures which really eased my mind and I appreciated. Definitely will use her again next time I need a cat sitter!!!”

I would love to treat your animal like my own! ☺️🫶 I work from home, so I’m able to provide pet care before or after work, or mid-day on my lunch break. But, I can usually be flexible depending on my meeting schedule! I take direction very well and I am super attentive and responsible. I’m extremely reliable, so whatever you want or need me to do for your furry bestie, consider it done!
“Wenxin is the best! We’ve had her watch our dog for a few days at a time and also for doggy day care, we will keep coming back to her. She sends us great update photos and our dog, Ozzy, comes back tired and happy!”
About: I'm a dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Whether your furry friend needs a playful companion, a snuggle buddy, or someone to make sure they get their daily exercise, I'm here to help. I also have experience with puppy training, so don't worry if your pup isn't fully house trained. I understand that every dog is unique, with their own personality, needs, and quirks. That's why I take the time to get to know your pup and tailor my care to suit their needs. I will ensure your dog feels loved, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available during the week and on weekends to care for your pets. Just let me know what you need! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pug and orange cat to keep your dog company. When providing walks or drop in visits with your pet, I can also assist with bringing in mail or watering plants.
“Milo was well cared for and loved with Christine. She sent pics and videos. We were also running late and she has no problem with it. Fantastic sitter we would definitely use again.”
“Our little golden Havanese had a wonderful time with Irem and her husband! She spent the day with them on Friday, and was eager to go back the next day. She made a new friend, a beautiful golden retriever, who she enjoyed spending the day with. Irem gave her plenty of snuggle time, and she seemed perfectly content both days when we picked her up. This was our first Rover experience, and we were grateful it went so well! Thank you, Irem!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve also dog‑sat for friends and family giving me experience with different breeds, personalities and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away. Because I work from home, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play breaks, feeding and keeping an eye on your pet’s comfort. I build my work schedule around their needs so they get consistent attention and companionship instead of long stretches alone. Whether it’s a midday walk, extra snuggles or sticking to their usual routine, I’m able to give them steady, reliable care all week long. I have a quiet, calm and pet‑friendly home that’s perfect for animals who enjoy a peaceful environment. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your dog gets my full attention and a stress‑free space with no competition for affection. I keep my home clean, safe and comfortable and I have a deck where pets can relax outside, enjoy some fresh air and soak up the sun.

About: Hi! My name is Logan, and I’m a current college student at the University of New England with a strong background in studying animal behavior. I have several years of experience pet sitting, caring for my own pets — my dog Riley and cat Nadia — and working with local animal shelters. I love animals of all sizes and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. They’re family, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can count on me to provide loving, dependable care and to treat your pets with the same attention and compassion I give my own. I'm currently looking for a part-time job until Rover takes off, so as of now, pet care is my 100% focus. I spend every day caring for my cat Nadia and my family's dog Riley. I'm hoping that I will get to spend a good amount of my time also caring for other peoples pets :). When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also following any feeding schedules, medication instructions, or special care requests closely. I always prioritize safety by keeping pets supervised, securing doors and gates, and maintaining a clean, calm environment. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe and cared for. Whether it’s an energetic dog who loves long walks or a shy cat who prefers quiet companionship, I adapt my care to meet each pet’s individual needs. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being treated like family while they’re away.
About: My 10 year old and I love it when your babies enjoy a swim in the lake in the summer and/or a walk around the lake with us. Rest assured your fur babies will be happy and healthy while you are away. Our standard poodle is my daughter’s best girl. We go for walks at least once per day around the lake (1.6 miles around). Sometimes we even go more than once and we all get a good workout in! We usually care for dogs here at home, however, I am open to caring for your fur babies at your house, if you prefer! Let me know!
About: Hi! I'm A lifelong dog lover and dedicated pet parent who understands how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your dog! I currently have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, whom I am actively training, so I'm very comfortable with daily routines, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I also previously raised a Boxer-Catahoula Leopard Hound mix from puppyhood through his senior years, and he lived a happy life until about 16. That experience gave me hands on knowledge with energetic puppies, adult dogs and seniors who need a gentler approach. I treat every dog as if they were my own-with patience, attention, and care! I have experience with small, medium/large dogs, including puppies and seniors and I am comfortable reinforcing basic training and good leash manners. At this time, I'm excited to offer dog walking, drop-in visits, daycare and boarding Tuesday, Thursday through Sunday. Come summer time I will have 7 days per week availability. I'm currently offering discounted rates while I build up my Rover profile and reviews without cutting corners on care and attention. I am not offering doggy day care or boarding at this time until my own puppies are fully trained. My focus is 100% individualized one-one-one care for your dog in their familiar environment. You can expect a timely visit that includes safe and attentive walks, fresh water, feeding and clean-up, if needed. I can provide photo updates and a brief summary after each visit. My approach to care is calm and assertive! I understand that every dog has a unique personality and I take the time to learn what makes your dog feel safe, happy and confident. I am a caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with your dog.
“Excellent. Desi & Marilyn care about what they do. They sent us pictures and videos throughout the day to let us know how our pup was doing and how he was having fun with the other dogs. They were thoughtful about introducing my pup, Benji, to the pack. They asked me questions to about Benji's needs and were great communicators through and through. Benji seemed very happy with his stay. We will be booking again.”
“Our dog always has the best time with Aeli and her dogs! She sends so many pictures and was able to watch her on Thanksgiving which was so helpful. Ruby can’t wait to go back!”

“Alexandra is incredibly kind and gentle. She was so patient with our Lani, who’s scared of just about everything, and really respected our request to keep greetings and goodbyes calm and low-key to help prevent separation anxiety. She takes her time, used the treats for getting boots on!) And gives Lani the full walk time without rushing. We feel very comfortable with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive walker.”
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. Often watch others dogs over night, or come by for walks and feedings when owners are away. Good with animals of all sizes. Currently my schedule is very open, available in the mornings and afternoons for walks or visits. Can also be available to watch dogs overnight if needed. My home is an apartment right next to several parks. Perfect for smaller dogs or big dogs who need exercise outside. Can also travel to you.
“Eilleen was great with our cockapoo Wesley - he seemed very excited to see her for his check-ins! She was also super helpful and understanding when it came to scheduling around my new job, which we’ve really appreciated.”
“Amber has been great taking care of our large but nervous rescue pup, Teddy. She is clearly knowledgeable in how to work with dogs who are not immediately trusting and more reserved. Now Teddy really enjoys his weekly walks and getting to sit with Amber for some treats. I would continue to recommend her for any of your pet care needs.”
“Alexa was super sweet with my dogs and responded in a very timely manner. She was available for a second walk when I reached out the same day & did a fantastic job overall. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Kacy was a life saver!! One week after I rescued a timid, anxious and fearful Beagle, I broke my wrist. Kacy responded and started immediately. Knowing Luke had issues didn’t bother her in the least. She obviously has a lot of experience with dogs and knew how to handle him. It was rough for her in the beginning but she was very patient and kind and never gave up on him. She was more than a dog walker; she sat in on sessions with a trainer I hired to help Luke. So her walks with him, were more than just walks. They were mini training sessions! And in the one month she was with us, Luke made so much progress all because of Kacy since I wasn’t able to do much. Kacy will treat your dog as her own, she is very responsible, punctual and never missed a walk. I am forever grateful for everything she did and she even went above and beyond cleaning up Luke’s accidents and carrying in packages for me! We will definitely miss her. If you need someone to care for your 4-legged family, she’s definitely the one!”

I currently work a split schedule job during the week so I am available for several hours during the daytime, plus evenings and weekends to care for you pets. I care for pets as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s routine closely, provide plenty of playtime and companionship, and keep a close eye on their health and happiness. I also keep the home secure and share updates so families have peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands.
“We had a great experience with Irem. She is very easy going and responsible. She took a great care of our dog when we went away on vocation. We will continue using her services for our next trips.”
About: What sets me apart is my background as a nurse and my lifelong experience caring for animals. I've been around pets since I was 4 years old and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and attention to detail. As a dog owner myself, I'm comfortable caring for puppies, active dogs, and senior pets. I'm reliable, safety-focused, and will treat your pet like family while providing updates and plenty of love and attention during every visit. Hi! I'm a nurse who loves spending my days off with animals. I've been caring for animals since I was 4 years old and have had dogs my entire life. Caring for others is a big part of who I am, and that extends to pets as well. I'm an early riser, enjoy routines, and understand how important consistency is for keeping pets happy and comfortable. I also love staying active through walking and working out, so I'm always happy to give dogs plenty of exercise, fresh air, and attention. Whether it's a leisurely neighborhood stroll or a more energetic walk, I'll make sure your pet gets the activity they need. My nursing schedule varies, which gives me flexibility and availability for drop-in visits throughout the week. Whether your pet needs a potty break, playtime, feeding, or just some extra love and attention while you're away, I'd be happy to help. I look forward to treating your pets like they're part of my own family! I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I'll keep them safe and fed in your house while making sure they get there exercise! I'm a huge walker!
About: Prior to moving towns I used to pet sit for all of my neighbors. Pets large and small, it didn’t matter but it was always fun. I’m starting my MBA next fall so anything earned on here will go towards that goal of mine! I’ve owned pets for over 12 years and have been taking care of others for 6 so almost all throughout high school and undergrad. I can walk multiple dogs at once, great with elderly animals, experienced with puppies, able to administer pet medication, etc. If you have questions reach out! Currently I am taking two online summer courses for my MBA with Sacred Heart University. I go to the gym 4 times a week and work drop in bartending shifts sometimes on weekends. Since I make my own schedule pet care fits very well into it because I can tailor mine to fit the animals needs! I don’t offer in home care at the moment because my sister recently got hip surgery so I’m waiting until she’s more comfortable to have other peoples pets at home. Otherwise I have two sweet dogs who have coexisted well with pets that I’ve taken care of in the past as well as cats they stay in their own room.
About: My experience with pet sitting goes beyond just having my own. I have been watching other people's pets since I was a teenager and I am great with all dogs. I have my own dog so it's just part of my day. My daily routine includes walking feeding, playing and letting him roam free in the yard. I have a fenced in yard so pets can run free. I also enjoy going on long walks. Making sure my dog is well groomed is a big deal. He always smells good, nails are trimmed and fur I'd brushed/blown out.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. Growing up my family and I have adopted 3 dogs. I absolutely love working with dogs - big, small, old, hyper, I’m your gal! I have a couple years of experience working at a doggy day care as well as some dog bathing services. I’m a junior currently attending Ramapo College. I commute to class and am available for multiple days a week. I’m usually always available on the weekends! I have a fenced yard for my dog but she is not the friendliest. I tend to bring her to the dog park where she gets along with other dogs in a bigger/more open area.

“Reviews don’t lie! Lynn and her husband Marty took such great care of our Frida. They stepped in last minute after our original sitter canceled just a day before our trip, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. They kept us updated with daily photos, and Frida was clearly SO happy and comfortable. Thank you, Lynn, for all the amazing care and love you gave to Frida—we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“Bayan was such a friendly host that communicated extremely well. Super fast replies! Our dog stayed with her for about a week over Christmas break and she continuously gave us photo/video updates. We’ll definitely use her again!”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“Best choice ever! I left my four month old Cavapoo Mylo with Jenelle and he absolute loved his stay with her! Bring that it was my first time having to leave Mylo alone for two day, Jenelle sent me updates and was patient with Mylo as he is still in training. She gave us the peace of mind that our little pup was happy and well taken care of. Mylo will definitely be coming back soon!”
“Thank goodness for John. The original dog sitter canceled last minute due to unforseen circumstances, and John was able to take care of our boy without problems. He sent updates and made sure he was happy.”
“Marisol and John were the best to take care of our pups! They are so sweet and caring. They have an amazing fenced backyard! Our pups ran their hearts out everyday! My dogs always try to leave in a hurry from a sitter, but this time they didn’t want to leave. Our pups love them; I think more than they love us.. lol .. Marisol and John are very attentive and have a very warm household. The entire family is awesome!”
“So glad I found Brittany and Benji! Felt comfortable right away leaving my beloved furry friend with her ! My dog loves her and has a blast playing with her dog Benji! Communication was responsive and friendly all throughout my dog’s stay. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time we used Rover and Jennifer. Our experience with both was great. Jennifer was so caring and Judge had a great time while there. We would definitely use her again and recommend her as well.”
“We would give 10 stars if we could! Tricia had our Labrador Retriever/Catahoula Leopard mix Lenny for a little over a week and it was the first time we had ever left him anywhere. At our first meeting, it was clear that Tricia has a tremendous amount of experience and know-how when it comes to dogs, and I knew immediately that we were in great hands. She calmed our nerves and assured us that she would keep us updated while we were away. She helped our guy settle into a routine quickly and she did an extraordinary job handling his food issues (we sent pre-made table food for her to give him). While we were away, she was an excellent communicator and sent us various pictures of him during different times of the day. He looked so happy that we were afraid he wouldn't want to come home! When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, clean, and showed obvious affection towards Tricia. We are so incredibly relieved that we found her to watch Lenny if and when we need to travel without our boy. With gratitude, from Laura (Lenny's Mom).”
About: I truly treat every dog like they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pup with someone else, and I don’t take that lightly. Your dog won’t just be watched, they’ll be loved, included, and cared for in a calm, structured home environment. I have a sweet 2 year old Cavapoo who is extremely friendly and loves having company. She’s gentle, playful, and great at helping other dogs feel comfortable and welcome. If your pup enjoys socializing, they’ll have a built in bestie. If they prefer their space, I’m very attentive to personalities and make sure every dog feels safe and respected. I’m big on communication, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and reassurance while you’re away. I stick to your dog’s routine as closely as possible- feeding schedules, walks, crate time, and playtime. Above all, I provide a loving, dependable, and peaceful environment where your dog can relax and feel at home ! :) Pet care is already a huge part of my daily routine. I have a 2 year old Cavapoo, so my day naturally revolves around walks, playtime, and structured care. I take my dog on multiple walks throughout the day, so any pup staying with me will be included in regular exercise and outdoor time. I work my schedule around the dogs in my care to make sure they’re never left alone for long periods. I’m very consistent with feeding times, potty breaks, and activity, and I genuinely enjoy building my day around their needs. Because this is something I already prioritize every single day, adding another dog into our routine feels seamless, and they will become part of our little pack and get plenty of attention, movement, and love. I provide a calm, structured, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours. I follow your dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and instructions, and I take multiple walks a day so your pup will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time. Safety is my top priority, and I carefully monitor interactions at all times. If needed, I can crate my dog or your dog to give them space, maintain routine, or ensure everyone feels comfortable and secure.
“Monica & Kelvin took excellent care of our dogs. They were incredibly prompt and responsive. They also provided daily updates and photos, which was highly appreciated. We will absolutely use them again without hesitation.”
“Maureen and her family were amazing! Mocha was well taken care of, we got daily updates and pictures, and she was so responsive to anything we'd needed! When I arrived to pick Mocha up, he jumped on me to say hi, and then immediately sprinted to the back of the house (not the front door) cause he'd had such a good time there!”
“I had a great experience with John. I booked on short notice and he was very flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated. He took excellent care of Carl while I was away and gave me real peace of mind the entire time. Communication was solid, and I received updates throughout Carl’s stay — it was clear he was being very well looked after. When I picked him up, he was calm, healthy, and completely himself, which tells you everything you need to know about the level of care he provides. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with John again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
“We travel frequently for long trips and our usual sitter was not available this time and so we chose to use Rover and found Ankita and her beautiful family . From the time of meet and Greet I knew that I couldn’t have found a better dog loving home for my coco . The love care and affection they showered on coco was evident from the multiple daily updates we received in form of videos and messages . Coco was the happiest puppy ever and I bet she is going to miss them so much - especially their Dog Panther who is such a sweet heart and their little son who became coco’s best friend and companion to play all day :) Coco has found a new second home and we will surely be using them again at our next time away”
“Christina and her husband Nick were amazing! She had questions ready prior to the booking to insure the best care for my dog Marley, she sent me constant update and pictures, and made me feel super comfortable. I will definitely be booking with Christina again! Marley loved both of them and I’m sure he looks forward to seeing them again.”
“Ksenia gave our loved and spoiled precious Benny amazing care, attention, and customized approach. We received great communication for all four days consistently and he was well taken care of. Recommend without hesitation.”
