“Monica and Kelvin were kind and attentive dog sitters. It felt great to get so many pictures of my dog being happy in the sunny yard while we were away. On the business side, they were professional, communicated clearly and consistently, and were a pleasure to work with.”
“I cannot recommend Melissa and her family enough. From the moment we had a meet and greet with her, I knew Watson would be in amazing hands! After dropping him off, I was updated multiple times a day with pictures, videos, and updates of him living his absolute best life. There was also so much care taken to accommodate him since he had a recent injury that he’s just out of recovery for. They took care of him as if he was their own, even going for walks in the rain! I’m so grateful to have found people so truly caring and who love animals to take care of my little guy! He is currently sound asleep after an adventure filled few nights! I’ll absolutely be booking again in the future! Thank you all again for being incredible ☺️”
“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.”
“Ann was very prompt on responding to my messages while Pudding was with her. She sent me photos with how Pudding is doing daily. Ann gave medication to Pudding as I instructed. Also, i asked Ann to do not over feed Pudding since her health condition gets worse if she gains weight. Pudding didn’t gain any weight while her stay which is very important for her health. Very satisfied and recommend her!”
“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!”
“Priscilla was an exceptional dog sitter for our pup, Cairo. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he was in capable and caring hands. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, ensuring he was comfortable and well taken care of. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated with regular communication, sending photos and updates, which really helped us relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was doing well. Her home was clean, safe, and welcoming, providing Cairo with a comfortable environment to settle into. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll definitely be trusting Priscilla with Cairo again in the future!”
“Cathy was absolutely amazing and incredible. she is one of the sweetest people i’ve met and i’m so happy i found her to watch my baby. she sent updates and photos and made me feel so comfortable. i will definitely be a returning to cathy for my next trip!”
“Mickey was great! His entire household was very welcoming and he understood our senior dog’s needs. He was great at keeping us up to date with pictures and texts and made sure Duke was comfortable. Highly recommend!!”
“Celeste did an amazing job taking care of my greyhound. Jolteon is terrified of cars and Celeste went way out of the way to make sure my pup was comfortable and safe. She gave him his medication without any difficulty at all. Her price is great for the care that she provides. I highly recommend booking Celeste to take care of your animals. I will be using her services be again very soon.”
“It was such a pleasure leaving raiden my basenji with Sridevi for the past 7 days. I would definitely recommend if she is available. They sent pictures and updates everyday and it was a pleasure. They are caring and loving family. Thank you so much for taking care of raiden.”
“Mi was caring; provided outstanding care to Lily. She was very attentive and supportive regarding Lily's needs. Mi sent us updates along with videos and pictures of Lily's day. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Lily was in good hands. For our next vacation, we would definitely use Mi again.”
“Joannie was amazing with Charly! She shared updates and photo’s everyday! Charly was such a happy pup when she came back home. Thank you so much! Will absolutely use her services again!”
“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”
“Carolina will be the only sitter for my dog from now on. She and her family truly cared for my dog during my family's vacation and i can't thank her enough! They are true dog lover! Thank you, Carolina for your care and service for my dog!!!”
“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”
“Elizabeth and Oleg were great! They provided updates of our dog Zion and were flexible when our pickup plans changed due to travel. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Juan and his family took great care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. He was quick to respond to our messages and provided us with updates as to how she was doing. We would gladly use his services again in the future.”
“Lisa was so loving and caring to Jupi during his stay. She made sure he was never alone and took the extra step to make sure he ate his food given he recently has started requiring add-ons to his regular dry food. She regularly sent me pictures and was always very responsive. Thank you for taking care of Jupi, we will definitely bring him back.”

Really appreciated that he got some playtime and attention while we were away and made it so much easier for us to have a relaxing first family vacation! Thanks again, Katie!”
“Kerri goes the extra mile with our pets, making sure all are cared for, fed, and attended to. She responds quickly and has always been available even when last minute. Couldn't recommend Kerri more.”
“Emma took very good care of my cat, Cactus. She played with him gave him pets and treats, and sent me a nice report each day with fun pictures. Without a doubt, Emma is a caring cat (pet) lover and most reliable. Cactus was very well cared for with Emma - he was in good hands. Thanks so much!”

Highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“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!”
“Lisbeth was great with our cat, Monty! She arrived each day during our trip to feed and play with him, scooped his box as needed and even brought in our mail. When she came to meet Monty before we left, she asked great questions and made sure she had all the info for a smooth experience. Lisbeth is a real pro with animals - we highly recommend her for your pet-sitting needs!”
“Taylor took such great care of Fay and Jill the cats while I was traveling. They are often a little shy but they clearly loved her visits and their time together. Taylor sent detailed updates and multiple photos every time. I have already booked Taylor again next time when I'm out of town!”

“Nicole is the best! She is our daily dog walker, and stepped in this week to take care of our cats and bunny while we were on vacation visiting family in Wisconsin. She was attentive, communicative, and extremely loving. We couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: Though I haven’t had a cat personally I’ve been around them for many years and have taken care of friends and family members cats. I’d love to have one so being able to care for them is the next best thing
About: I was raised around both cats and dogs and still take care of many today. I am the first person friends & family call if they ever need a sitter for their cats or just advice on any issues they’re having as new cat owners. I’ve trained my own cats as they’ve grown old to stick to the litter box right when they started to act out. I’ve also helped raise cats that were abandoned and found them proper care.
About: i’m a cat mom of one! i’d have more if i could but my only (cat) child, maple, prefers the solitary life. she’s 11 years old and i’ve had her for 9 of those. i have fostered one sweet silly kitty prior to that. i am expanding my services to include cats. i have a special bond with my girl and am a feline enthusiast! i look forward to becoming instantly obsessed with your babies.
“Tatiana was wonderful with my cats and would definitely get her to sit them again. She's very diligent, thorough, and reliable. She goes beyond what is expected of her. Always sent very good pictures, videos, and summary of her time spent with my kitties.”
“Julianna is absolutely wonderful— she is very detail oriented and treats your pets just as she would her own. We left our cat in her care for a week and I could not have been happier with her daily updates and pictures, even though our cat is sometimes a weird dude who felt the need to hiss at his new friend. When we travel again I will definitely be reaching out to Julianna, she’s the perfect pet sitter and I’d highly recommend her.”

About: Hi! I’m Lindsey, a lifelong animal lover and trained dog care professional based in Ramsey, NJ 🐾 I am willing to help all over North Jersey! I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently care for my 14-year-old Wheaten Terrier, Dexter, who I’ve had for his entire life! :) I’ve also worked in a professional dog daycare and provided dog walking and pet sitting for multiple families, and I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! Whether it’s playtime, a walk, helping with meds, or just keeping your pet company, I bring calm, reliable, loving energy to every visit. I’m trained in safe animal handling and committed to keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I also make sure keep pet parents updated with lots of photos and messages for peace of mind. 😊 Can’t wait to meet your fur baby!! I’m a college student home for the summer! I have a very open and available schedule, and I’m available to help you and your furry friend/friends most any time and any day with anything you need :) I always make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. When caring for dogs in their home, I’m respectful of the space and always leave it even better than I found it!
About: I’ve had dogs for 20+ years and have been puppy raising for the Seeing Eye for 6 years! I now have 2 dogs and 1 cat and can also help you with your animals! I’m currently available for most of the summer! I also have very flexible hours during the fall and winter. I am available on the weekends too. I have a fenced in 1 acre yard. I have a nice loop around my neighbor for walks. I have two well-trained dogs that are also therapy dogs. We can all have fun and your dog will leave tired.
“I had a very positive experience with Melissa. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my pup like her own. I got regular updates and came home to a happy, well-taken-care-of pup. Highly recommend and will absolutely book again.”
“Lauren was fabulous with our pup, Mika. It was our first time leaving her with a sitter so of course I was a bit nervous how she’d do. Lauren’s enthusiasm and positive energy immediately put my fears to rest, and obviously Mika’s too. Lauren sent me pictures throughout the day to let me know Mika was doing great. I appreciated her care and good communication. Would highly recommend.”
“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!”
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs belonging to friends, family members, and clients—including dogs with anxiety, especially while their owners are traveling. Many of these dogs had previously stayed in large commercial boarding facilities where multiple dogs share the same space, which often increased their stress and anxiety. I’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference a calm home environment and personalized one-on-one attention can make. I am also certified in American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid, so I’m prepared to respond in case of an emergency and provide attentive care for your pets. I focus on patience, consistency, and gentle, loving care to help each dog feel safe, comfortable, and secure. With dedicated attention and companionship, I’ve watched anxious dogs gradually become more relaxed and confident—sometimes they even seem reluctant to leave! :) I’m home full-time to care for your pup. This means your dog will receive plenty of attention, regular walks, and consistent, loving care throughout the day. I have the time and flexibility to focus on your dog’s individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. I keep my schedule flexible, but I only care for one dog at a time to provide the best possible experience. Because of this, spots can fill quickly—especially during holidays—so please plan and book in advance. Located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, my home is designed to provide comfort, security, and plenty of room for your dog to relax and play. Your pup will enjoy a park-like backyard—nearly half an acre—fully fenced for safe exploration and outdoor fun. Whether they love to run, sniff, or simply lounge in the sun, there’s plenty of space to feel at home. In the summer, I also set up a dog-friendly swimming pool so they can cool off and have some extra fun. I share my home with a very friendly 9-year-old Black Lab who is gentle, well-socialized, and enjoys calm companionship with other dogs. To ensure every dog gets the attention, care, and comfort they deserve, I typically host only one dog at a time (with a maximum of two during holidays). This allows me to focus on your dog’s individual needs and create a low-stress, personalized experience. Your dog will be treated like family here—safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.
“We were so very pleased that we found Andrea on Rover. We went for a meet and greet first and liked everything about Andrea and her clean cozy doggie care environment! We used her for Doggy day care today for 6 hours while we attended a family party. It went perfectly. She sent photos during that time which puts your mind at ease. We were particularly nervous because we had never hired a sitter for our 12 year old Brandi. She’s only 12 minutes from our home which is another big plus for us. Her home is so well taken care of and she has a ground level well groomed back yard that is fenced and well lit. Andrea checked ALL the boxes for us!! Thank you so much! We’ll be back for sure!”
About: I have owned dogs most of my life, always showering them with the love and care they deserve. Now, I want to do the same for your pups! I am available most days during the day, weekends included. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I should almost always be able to accommodate your requests. I have a fenced-in yard and a friendly dog, so your dog will be housed safely, and will have a four-legged friend to play with. I take my dog on frequent walks and would be excited to take yours along with us.
“Travis and Roberta were critical in helping us get our dog settled the first week we had him! They were so kind and patient with him. He loved going over to their house when we couldn’t be home! Their dog was older than ours and was also patient and gentle with him, so it was great socialization for our pup! We will definitely be booking with them again in the future!”
About: I’ve had two dogs in my lifetime each for 12 years and I’ve always loved to be around them and to make sure they were safe and felt happy. I treat each pet like family. My reliability, calm demeanor and love for animals make both pets and their owners feel at ease. I will walk the dog everyday and I can board dogs every weekend. I have experience taking care of a French bulldog named Randy. Sometimes I go there to take care of him and other times I bring him to my apartment. I have space in our apartment for the dog to roam around and I live in a safe dog friendly neighborhood in which we can take the dog for long walks near a park and a pond.

About: I’ve always had cats and dogs throughout my adult life. My husband and I operate a small home-based business, which allows us to have a flexible schedule. We both genuinely love animals, so we’ve been actively providing a cat boarding, dog walking and drop-in visits through Wag and Rover. We’ve gained great experience and positive feedback from our clients, and we always prioritize safety, reliability, and loving care. I genuinely love both cats and dogs and care for them with patience, kindness, and responsibility. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, whether it’s playtime, walks, quiet companionship, or following specific routines. Ensuring your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness is always my top priority. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. My husband and I have been running our own business from home in Paramus, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I already own and care for two cats and one dog at home, so my days are structured around feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. Because I work from home, I’m able to freely adjust my time to care for your pet—whether that means regular check-ins, longer visits, walks, or simply spending quality time to make them feel comfortable and secure. I offer drop-in visits and dog walking services in my clients’ homes only but I offer a boarding service for cats. During drop-in visits, I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning for cats, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. For dog walks, I focus on safe, enjoyable walks suited to your dog’s energy level and needs, always paying close attention to their behavior and surroundings. I make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. When walking a large dog or two dogs at the same time, my husband joins me so we can work as a team and ensure the dogs are cared for safely. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I can adjust my time to provide reliable visits and walks. I’m also happy to send photo and text updates after each visit so you can have peace of mind.

“We’re extremely happy with Kaiden’s service for our Bandit. She’s always on time, communicative and lovely to us and to Bandit. We’re so grateful to have her walk him daily while we’re at work. We highly recommend her.”
“As pet parents, our greatest concern is the safety and joy of our animals. When my pup Frank and I started working with Joannie, I knew I wouldn't have to worry about either while Frank was in her care. She has proven to be professional, caring, and patient when it comes to her time with Frank, especially considering he is in his puppy phase. She always provides great feedback and equally fantastic pictures from their walks together. I look forward to having her look after Frank more! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help with their fur family!”
“Love monica!! I always look forward reading her report card, so detailed!! & her pics of Molly are on point & so candid!! Never in a million years I'd be able to take candid pics of molly as she's always busy chasing birds lol”
“Lindsey did an amazing job with Max. She took her time to learn his personality, his walking preferences, and made sure he got good exercise. Max enjoyed his walks and loves Lindsey already.”
“Joe is a wonderful dog walker! He is reliable and our Ernie loves him. I appreciate seeing the photos and updates and I rest assured that my dog is being well cared for. Thanks Joe.”
“Lisbeth has been a wonderful addition to our family of pet caretakers! She is always on time and polite, and Ravioli always has a good walk- looking forward to having Lisbeth help us for a long time!”
“Lauren is the best dog walker we’ve ever had. She was punctual, flexible, a great communicator and just an overall pleasure to work with. She walked my 80 lb boxer regularly for a few months and I would book her again in a heart beat. Look no further for a better dog walker!”
About: Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover with decades of experience caring for pets- my own, as well as those of friends and family. To me, pets are family- and I understand just how much they mean to the people who love them. That's why I believe it's so important to have someone you trust, that will care for your pets with the same love & attention that you would. I'm here to be that person . I work from home so this gives me the flexibility to provide consistent care- whether it is walks, feedings, or check-ins. I'm able to adapt to their needs. I do have a fenced in yard; but I like to create a calm, safe space for my animals and I have a routine to ensure consistency. And not to mention, that they get lots of love and attention!
About: Animals have been a part of my life since childhood, from our show dog who was an Irish Wolfhound to being a rescue mom to smaller terriers. I have cared for horses, chickens, bunnies which included pets with special handicaps. With deep empathy and natural connection, I understand animals on an intuitive level. I have trained puppies, comforted seniors and welcomed countless creatures who somehow find their way to my home. Your pet will find a home away from home here with me, safe, loving-and I look forward to offering the same love I show all animals to your beloved pet. All the animals in my home live in harmony together. Some visitors marvel at that fact but it's how I treat each animal with love and care that fosters this environment. All needs are met and everyone is happy! I am home during the day and available to provide attentive care for your pet. I may step out briefly for errands or other chores but will ensure your pet's needs are fully met and they get plenty of company and care. Our home is on one acre with a fenced in yard and great area for walking with lots of trees in a peaceful setting. I have a senior dog (17 yo) that loves company. We also have cats which are friendly and curious.
About: Hello, my name is Tatiana! I’m a 28-year-old living in Woodcliff Lake, NJ, and a proud Rutgers University alumna with a degree in Pre-Veterinary Medicine! I’ve been in love with animals of all kind for as long as I can remember, driving me to pursue this degree! While at Rutgers, I gained hands-on experience working with horses, cows, goats, sheep, and pigs on the university farm. Additionally, I’ve spent over five years as a veterinary assistant and surgical nurse at a pet hospital, specializing in the care of cats and dogs. I’m proficient in administering oral medications and subcutaneous or intramuscular injections. I also have experience with chemotherapy medications, having cared for my dog, who has had a bladder tumor for nearly three years. I share my home with a grumpy 14-year-old Bichon Frise/Shih-Tzu and a 4-year-old Scottish Fold cat with Cerebellar Hypoplasia, whom I rescued during my time at the veterinary clinic. My love for animals knows no bounds, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own! With a passion for animals and years of experience, I offer a range of services including dog walking, overnight care, and pet sitting! So whether you're going on a weekend getaway or need someone to take care of your fur baby during the day, I've got you covered! I will gladly send you pictures and video updates of your sweet kitty or pupper! I also am happy to play with them using their favorite toys and don't mind spending extra time for a snuggle session while I’m there! If you're interested in my services, please feel free to message me to discuss your pet care needs! I can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! I’m currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Speech Language Pathology at Kean University with the goal of working with children. In addition, I wanted to continue my passion for working with cats and dogs, so I decided what better way than pet-sitting! I’m available all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. On Thursdays, I’m available from the morning until 3:30 p.m! Please note that my house sitting fee covers 10-12 hours overnight (depending on my availability) and one midday drop-in! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I adhere strictly to their established routines to ensure the pets feel comfortable and secure. I follow the feeding schedules, provide fresh water, and engage in stimulating playtime and exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. I also ensure the home remains secure and well-maintained during my visits. This includes tidying up areas like vacuuming around the litter box and cleaning up any pet-related messes. Additionally, I provide regular updates with photos and messages to keep the pet parent informed about their pets’ well-being!
“Alli is a great! She's super professional about being on time and making sure I got some great pictures from their walk. you can tell she loves animals. Would highly recommend.”
About: I have owned dogs most of my life, always showering them with the love and care they deserve. Now, I want to do the same for your pups! I am available most days during the day, weekends included. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I should almost always be able to accommodate your requests. I have a fenced-in yard and a friendly dog, so your dog will be housed safely, and will have a four-legged friend to play with. I take my dog on frequent walks and would be excited to take yours along with us.
About: I have grown up taking care of my Britney Spaniel and now care for my rescue Shih Tzu mix. My Britney was very active so I have a lot of experience walking and playing with a dog that never runs out of energy! My Shih Tzu is far more reserved, and enjoys lounging, but I can still get her to play every so often. I also just took in a stray cat and have begun caring for it. I am unsure of her background, so I take things slow but she is lovable and playful so it’s been a pleasure getting to know her. I am currently working part-time and have shifts on Tuesday, Fridays, and saturdays. On those days I can still come in for half the day and care for the pet. The other days of the week I am able to come pretty freely I can be very warm and cuddly but also know when pets just want to be left alone. I’ll adapt to your pets preferences!
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.

“Monica and Kelvin were kind and attentive dog sitters. It felt great to get so many pictures of my dog being happy in the sunny yard while we were away. On the business side, they were professional, communicated clearly and consistently, and were a pleasure to work with.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Priscilla was an exceptional dog sitter for our pup, Cairo. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he was in capable and caring hands. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, ensuring he was comfortable and well taken care of. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated with regular communication, sending photos and updates, which really helped us relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was doing well. Her home was clean, safe, and welcoming, providing Cairo with a comfortable environment to settle into. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we’ll definitely be trusting Priscilla with Cairo again in the future!”
“Mickey was great! His entire household was very welcoming and he understood our senior dog’s needs. He was great at keeping us up to date with pictures and texts and made sure Duke was comfortable. Highly recommend!!”
“It was such a pleasure leaving raiden my basenji with Sridevi for the past 7 days. I would definitely recommend if she is available. They sent pictures and updates everyday and it was a pleasure. They are caring and loving family. Thank you so much for taking care of raiden.”
“Joannie was amazing with Charly! She shared updates and photo’s everyday! Charly was such a happy pup when she came back home. Thank you so much! Will absolutely use her services again!”
“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”
“Carolina will be the only sitter for my dog from now on. She and her family truly cared for my dog during my family's vacation and i can't thank her enough! They are true dog lover! Thank you, Carolina for your care and service for my dog!!!”
“Elizabeth and Oleg were great! They provided updates of our dog Zion and were flexible when our pickup plans changed due to travel. Would absolutely recommend!”

“Thank you Lieb and family for taking such great care of Rocket. I can tell he had a terrific time with you while we were away. And thanks for the pictures and updates etc! We really appreciate your dedication to the dogs.”
“Another successful vacay in the books largely due to me not worrying a single bit about my family’s best friend, Sunday. Ken and Irene are the absolute best people. They love my dog like their own and keep consistent communication so I always know what a great time he’s having. Thank you so much!!”
“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”
“Christina and Nick watched our large Rottweiler for 6 days. Christina provided very helpful and detailed updates multiple times per day. Meet and greet, pick up, and drop off were all agreed upon and followed. Wonderful hosts - thank you!”
“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”
“I got a good first impression of Robyn when I met her - she’s really warm and friendly. My dog has separation anxiety and gets really nervous when she’s away from our family, but she was relaxed and happy when we picked her up. Robyn is a wonderful pet sitter who took excellent care of my dog! We’ll definitely have her sit again next time we’re in town.”
