“Tawni took very good care of our Daisy and kept in touch throughout her stay. I felt comfortable and confident that our Daisy was in good hands and appreciative Tawni being available each time I reached out to her”
“Angela is a gem! I was planning a road trip with my 7.5 year old Norwegian Elkhound, Grayson (med. size) from Terre Haute, Indiana to Clinton, NY to visit family just recently in October of 2025. There were a lot of pieces of the of the puzzle to figure out and I started my internet and calling search in August. I was going to be staying at my mother's Senior apartment complex, celebrating her 87th birthday, but they do not allow visiting/staying dogs. My brother lives nearby but due to teenagers coming and going and having a small dog I needed to find other accommodations for Grayson. I called, emailed and options were few and far between. Some boarding kennels were too expensive or already booked, or had rules that the dog must stay until final pickup. Independent pet/home sitters not on Rover did not return emails. I needed to be able to take Grayson out a couple of times during the trip so that my mom could see Grayson as well as enjoy some of the Clinton fun spots with him while there. I also needed to pick Grayson up for the weekend to visit relatives in Massachusetts, then return him for another pet stay the next week. Angela was literally the last person I reached out to (having never used Rover and was unsure at first to use the service) and she got what I was trying to accomplish! We had seamless communication through Rover for initial Q & A and then had a couple of video chats to confirm that this was a match! The Rover app is similar to Airbnb where communication, reservations, and payment are done over the platform. When it was time for travel, Angela let us know she was ready for us! Grayson stayed with Angela Monday through Friday with a mid-week pick up for an afternoon, then picked up Grayson for the weekend getaway visiting relatives. Then Grayson spent Monday through Wednesday of the next week with Angela. Let me just say Grayson fell in love with Angela and Angela fell in love with Grayson! Angela is very attentive with all the details, and all the things you bring to make your pup comfortable (meds, crate, blankets, etc all was handled with care!) Grayson loved all the walks and attention she gave him! It was fun making the drive from Clinton to Angela's, about a 30 min. drive and her town is so pretty, especially with the fall colors and stopping at the local museum and produce stands was so enjoyable. I felt totally comfortable the whole trip that Grayson was well cared for. Angela went the extra mile with lots of attention, walks, brushing and getting an extra bone when I forgot mine. Without Angela, this road trip would not have happened as I really wanted to bring Grayson and have my mom see him as time marches on and wanted mom to see Grayson before any more time went by. Angela made my dream trip come true! Grayson and I even had a side trip to Niagara Falls and I will remember this trip forever! I plan to do this roundtrip again and will definitely book Angela again! I recommend Angela as an exceptional pet/home sitter! For any travelers out there with itineraries like mine, you will be in great hands with Angela! Thank you, Angela, your care for Grayson totally warmed my heart! Your service and care were impeccable! When I set up the next road trip, I will be in touch! Kris A, Terre Haute, Indiana”
“Becky made me feel very comfortable leaving my 1 year old pup for an overnight stay. She was very welcoming and Arlo was clearly loved during his stay. She provided lots of updates/ pictures (which put me at ease)... I recommend Becky and will be bringing Arlo back for upcoming stays!”
“Debbie is the most amazing person and the care and attention our dogs get is simply wonderful! I never worry about our fur babies when they are in Debbie’s Care! Her and her husband treat them like family. Our dogs simply love them!!”
“As always we love Tracy! She is so friendly and flexible and loves our Mochi like her own. She's safety oriented and he always has a great time playing and running at her house. We're so glad we found her and would recommend her with no hesitation to anyone looking for a safe and loving place to watch their pup! Thank you so much =)”
“We literally couldn’t have found a better sitter for our dogs. Holly and her husband were absolutely wonderful! She wrote me every morning and evening with updates, pictures, and videos of our dogs. They were so happy to be there. She was so kind and patient with them. Even went out of her way to throw a birthday doggie birthday party. Will definitely book again next time we go out of town”
“We are extremely pleased with the care that Laura offered for our Bailey. Laura communicated with us during Bailey’s stay with her providing us with peace of mind that Bailey was in good hands and doing well. We definitely would love to use her again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Can't have enough stars! She has now cared for my dogs twice and I will be bringing them here again. Fantastic, she communicates and keeps me updated on my pups every day, even sending photos. I don't have to worry when I leave my dogs with her.”
“Carrie and her husband took excellent care of my almost 16 year old pug. I haven’t left her with anyone else in a very long time so was a little nervous, for both her and the sitter. She kept me updated with texts and pictures and was told she was just fine. I’m hoping she can go there again when I need overnight stays.”
“Morgan was fantastic! I contacted her relatively last minute to watch my puppy for a full day and she enthusiastically agreed to help me out! She kept my feisty pup safe, entertained, and tired out! I’m very grateful for her. And as the cherry on top, she came home and slept all night (a much needed full nights sleep for me, as well 😂)”
“Jenna (and Tom!) were wonderful to work with and provided our dog with the ultimate experience while we were away. We knew she was having fun by the great pictures she sent. She enjoyed the deck and lovely grounds along with Stitch. He is the perfect companion for our older dog. This was our first experience with Rover and it could not have been better with Jenna. We have already booked her again.”
“Ginger had such a good time - she couldn’t decide if she wanted to stay or come home! Wonderful family, home, and care. Flexible sitters. Will return!”
“Our dog, Moxie, loved her overnight stay with Donna! She sent lots of pics and video throughout the day so we could see how well she was doing. From the fenced in yard, options for space to hang out solo or with other dogs and the care shown at check in, it’s clear the dogs in her care are loved and so well cared for. We are so happy we found Donna and will definitely be reaching out when we need a sitter again.”
“Geoffrey went above and beyond to keep us updated while we were away. He's extremely communicative and took great care of our dog, Archie. We know Archie had a great time at Geoffrey’s house and we would definitely recommend Geoffrey’s services to anyone in need!”
“Katie has been amazing on keeping me up to date on how my puppers was doing/adjusting. She sent photos for a few updates as well!! We will be back again and I know Maple is already excited to get back there!”
“I can't recommend Tia enough as a dog sitter! My dog, Milo, is always so excited to see her! Tia went above and beyond to make sure I felt at ease while she was with Milo, sending lots of adorable photos and regular updates. It was clear that Milo was well cared for and happy the entire time. If you're looking for someone who genuinely loves animals and provides AMAZING care, Tia is the one!”
“Thomas was awesome! My wife and I have been using Rover for a few years, and this was our first time booking with him. The experience exceeded our expectations. We have a very shy Schnauzer, but Thomas and his family treated him like one of their own. It was clear that they genuinely cared for him and made him feel comfortable while we were away. We also ran into some unexpected complications when returning from our trip, and Thomas was incredibly understanding and accommodating. His flexibility and willingness to help made a stressful situation much easier and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your fur baby with love and care, I highly recommend Thomas. We will definitely be booking with him again!”

“Emily is *wonderful.* I needed someone to drop in on my two cats to feed them (and make sure they weren’t fighting, one is new and we’re still adjusting) and Emily was so consistent with when she came to feed them and very communicative about problems and questions she had during her visits. I highly recommend her ?”
About: Hey I’m Caroline! My husband and I live with our 2 rescue dachshund mixes, Bert and Reggie, in Taberg, NY. I am currenly accepting new clients for drop-in visits and walking. I have over 20 years of experience with dogs, cats, chickens, small mammals, horses, birds and reptiles. I have experience with dog walking, feeding and watering, administering medications, and training puppes. I have been volunteering at animal shelters for over 10 years. I have had pets such as dogs, cats and small mammals for over 25 years. References can be provided upon request. I work full-time from home in Taberg, NY, so I can do drop-in visits or walks in the Camden/Rome/Utica area on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I am available other weekdays upon request. I’m available to stop by as needed to feed and water animals, making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I can also take dogs on walks or provide general attention and check-ins whenever required. I have a strict no-human-food policy for pets.
“My original sitter canceled very last minute unfortunately but Katie was able to take care of my cat despite it being last minute! She was very accommodating, since my cat is a very shy cat and she was super responsive! 😁”
“Anna was great. I have a scaredy cat and she was able to get him to warm up to her. My cats also had medication that she was able to give to the cats as well. We will definitely hire her again.”
“Excellent! Super friendly, immediate and positive responses, very engaged, incredible with dogs. Even noticed a medical condition in my poodle and offered to help. Even helped with other animals on property. Super thank you! Would 100% recommend. Dependable, honest, proactive, engaging communicator, trustworthy, and non-judgemental.”
“I can’t recommend Tracy enough as a cat sitter! She’s incredibly considerate and clearly loves animals—my kitten warmed up to her right away. She’s always careful and attentive, making sure everything is just right, and I really appreciate how quick she is to send updates. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my pet is in such capable and caring hands. Truly a wonderful sitter! Thank you for taking care of my little kitten for 7+ days!!!”
“Our very shy cat warmed up to Gabriella surprisingly quickly! She was kind, attentive, and always quick to respond to messages. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again the next time we need a cat sitter.”
“This is the second time we used Alexandria and she is just fantastic. We got pictures of our cats everyday and she was very responsive with any questions that we had while we were traveling. Would absolutely book her again the next time we are out of town!”
“Kayla was flexible with taking care of my guinea pigs in addition to my cat. The house was cleaner than I expected upon return since the shavings/hay can get dusty but Kayla obviously put in the extra time to sweep up. There were a few communication gaps (was not notified that kibble was running low until the bag was down to its last feeding, use of Rover cards only without any actual updates on pet status) but overall I am happy with my first use of this website for pet care.”
About: I've taken care of animals for years, people even bring me their animals to take in when they can't have them anymore, I've been labeled as a humane society by landlords and others. I have also fostered animals, many of times till they found a right home. I believe animals are to be trusted more than humans. I'm free most of the time to watch your babies, I'm pretty flexible on times and schedules, I work from home but Ill always have time for your babies I am able to come to your house and watch your lovely babies, I had plenty of my own that I have trained and loved.
“I had a great experience with drop-in visits! He met all expectations, communicated consistently, and sent pictures every time. I will definitely be asking him back next time I go out of town. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up with two cats, so I love cats as well as dogs. In 2019, I adopted an incredibly loving, gorgeous lab pit named Lucy, and she keeps me very active every day! She was a rescue dog, and although we were originally fostering her, I bonded with her too much to let her go. I’ve always been a natural introvert and have been drawn to the compassion of animals. I believe we can learn more about our own humanity through caring for animals. I look forward to meeting your amazing furry friends! In addition to Rover, I substitute teach right now, and this allows me to have a very flexible schedule. It's closer to part-time than full-time. My priority is to listen and adapt to each client’s needs/preferences, so that both the client and their pets will be as happy as possible.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Lee
“Tracy is AMAZING. If I could give more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. Bean loves her so much!! Not only does Tracy watch her all day, she takes her on walks, helps with training, snuggles with her etc. I was so worried to send my Bean to daycare generally speaking, but to say we’re lucky to have found Tracy is an understatement!!!”

“Great communication. Kind people, I will definitely book again when up this way. Pickles was very clearly well cared for. I appreciated the photo and text updates. Pickles came home happy and in good health.”
“Our dog had a great time with Daylin. She provided us with many photos during his time with her. This was our first daycare experience and we could not be more satisfied. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy.”
About: Dog mom providing loving, reliable care for puppies, adults, and seniors. Patient, attentive, and committed to keeping every pet safe and happy, and comfortable always. As a full-time online student, I have a flexible schedule and spend most of my day at home with my Poms. This allows me to provide attentive, reliable care for one to two dogs per day, ensuring they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, playtime, and affection. I have my own home with a large patio area where pets can enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Since it is not fenced, I always keep pets safely supervised and use their collar or leash when needed. I provide daily walks, exercise, playtime, and loving care while following each pet’s routine and needs.
“Michelle is always incredible with our girl. Tofu comes home with the biggest smile on her face and always smells wonderful. I think “Miss Michelle” (what we call her to Tofu) must keep an incredibly tidy and lovely-smelling home :)”
About: I have several years of experience with my adorable pup and lots of others! I would love to get to know your dog!! :) :) I am a college student home for the summer working at my part time job. (I work at a golf course as well.) I’m available everyday of the week, except for some weeknight afternoons and weekend mornings - but this changes frequently so my schedule is pretty open. I am extremely careful caring for pets, as I would want and expect for anyone to do for my dog as well. Nothing is ever left out for my pet to get into, doors/windows/etc are always shut, yard is fenced in and my dog is always leashed when I am with him, unless he is in our fenced in yard.
About: I grew up with dogs and recently owned 2 rescued dogs. I have land around my home and access to a wooded area with trails for longer walks. I am comfortable with caring for dogs in any facet. I am a teacher and I am looking for summer work. I am free every day until late August. I am willing to walk your dog in your neighborhood or board a dog over night. I have a stake in my yard for when my daughter visits with her 35 lb. Dog. Previous bigger dogs were walked on a leash at all times. I usually walk my dogs 1-2x daily for up to a 1/2 hour.
“It’s only been one day with Liz and our pup Reggie came home happy and tired. Couldn’t recommend Liz more - she made me feel at complete ease leaving our puppy for the first time. Loved getting the video and picture updates throughout the day, too. We will be regulars from now on!”
“Christalle is the best! She watched my pup during the work day and was so attentive to him. He had so many walks and play sessions and was truly tired at the end of the day… which is hard to do with such a high energy little guy. She was patient with my schedule and clearly loves animals.”
“Unfortunately my dog Millie never had the chance to go meet Angel and her dogs, as our plans changed and I was able to bring her with me on our outing. I cancelled last minute, and Angel was more than understanding! If I am ever in need of a sitter in the area again, I will definitely be reaching out to her!”

Promptly giving medicine to those animals in need for specific time, and patience tending to their attentions and needs. I work full time remote M-Thursday 8am-4pm with an hour and half lunch break each day. I work 3x a week part time on site and can be flexible as needed. I have a high energy dog (Jack Russell) that requires a lot of assertiveness and strict use of instruction. But at the same time requires rewards and playtime. I love to care for animals, but also care about the safety of myself, and owners property always keeping that at a #1 priority of my surroundings and the pets safety and better interest of the owner.

“Ally spent the better part of two months walking my dog while I was balancing work and school. She has been extremely reliable and maintains good communication when she is with my dog. My dog and I absolutely adore her and she is going to be my go to whenever I need my animals to be watched!”
About: I have 3 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs of a variety of breeds, and have worked with puppies as well as older pets in home environments such as suburbs, cities, and rural areas. I am happy to cater to your pet's special needs, and I focus on respecting each pet's boundaries and getting to know them on a case by case basis, with the hope that they grow to trust me as much as they trust you! Since I am a writer who works remotely, I am open on a weekly basis and am able to be flexible in order to meet your scheduling requirements. I work hard to ensure that your pet's personal boundaries are not crossed while we take time to get to know each other. I especially care about learning their preferences in order to earn their favor and eventually their trust. Depending on each pet, I try to be very sensitive to any shifts in their mood or behavior, such as if they get anxiety when left alone or are afraid of loud weather.
About: I’ve taken care of everything from small cats to wolf dogs. I will be able to take care of your pets, they will be happy with me. I typically only work in the early morning at my regular job so I will have plenty of time for your furry babies. I can either stay with them or do check ins a few times per day. I care for your pets by going by whatever schedule or rules you set out. No matter what, I will do my best to make sure they are happy and safe.

I’m available to take care of your babies! I love working with animals ! I take care of my cats as if they were my children, I will do the same with your pets! I have a lot of love and knowledge to offer
About: I have taken care of various animals since I was a young girl. I was born and raised on a dairy farm in upstate NY where I have helped train and raised many different kinds of animals including horses, cows, dogs, pigs, bunnies, cats, goats, and more. Neighbors friends family have all relied on me to feed bathe and walk their most precious animals without any problems. I am a stay at home mom & and care for animals as my full time job. I spend most of my time at home other than going to the store or my kids games for school. I am able to give your fur baby the best care possible to ensure they are appropriately cared for and loved as they should be through out their stay at my home. My first priority is keeping your fury friend safe and then they will be also be happy. I want your pet to feel at home when they are at my house. Depending on the service you request and the need for your specific animal this will vary. Each animal will have it's own individualized plan agreed upon with the animals owner.
About: I've always loved animals but didn't have the space to care for one of my own, until recently, so my interactions have mostly been through other's animals. In high school I was an animal science major and volunteered at doggy daycares. Then in college I studied basic canine care and training where I got experience in training different dogs. Now I have my own puppies, 2 2 year olds and a 1 year old, so more experience everyday! Currently in between employments and looking for something to keep me occupied that would benefit others as well. So available anytime that would be convenient for you! I have decent space for my pups and have my own precautions. I will prioritize the safety and wellbeing of your fur baby as if they're my own, so I assure you that I will follow any and all instructions given to me by you.
“Emily is a spectacular dog walker! Our Cara loved her so much and she always checked in with the Rover card to show us her progress and send pictures. Her love for animals is so clear from the moment you meet her. Will happily book her again!!!”
About: With 6 years of dedicated experience in pet care, I provide a comprehensive and compassionate service tailored to the unique needs of each animal. My expertise extends beyond basic care to include specialized skills such as positive reinforcement-based puppy training, helping to establish good habits from an early age. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, including administering medication, providing gentle exercise, and creating a comfortable, low-stress environment. I have experience managing a variety of medical conditions, ensuring your furry family member is safe and well-cared for at all times. My goal is to be a trusted partner in your pet's health and happiness, providing peace of mind while you're away. Each morning starts with feeding, watering, and a potty break for the pets in my care. This is followed by a morning walk or playtime to get their energy out and start the day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I follow individual schedules, which might include specific feeding times for puppies or senior dogs, medication administration, or scheduled walks and potty breaks. The afternoon often includes another round of playtime or enrichment activities, such as puzzle feeders or training sessions, to keep their minds engaged. Evenings are typically quieter, with a final feeding and potty break before a relaxing wind-down. My weekly routine involves a bit more planning. I coordinate with pet owners to schedule walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I also use this time to restock on supplies and keep detailed records of each pet's behavior, eating habits, and health. If a pet is in my care for an extended period, I might schedule a grooming appointment to ensure they're in top shape. My schedule is built around the needs of the pet, ensuring they receive consistent, loving care and that their owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets, whether on my own or a client's, requires a responsible and attentive approach to ensure their well-being. A fundamental aspect is providing a consistent routine, including scheduled feeding times with high-quality, species-appropriate food and fresh water that is always accessible. Regular exercise is crucial for both physical and mental health; this can range from daily walks for dogs to interactive playtime. Environmental enrichment, such as toys, scratching posts, and comfortable bedding, helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. It's also vital to maintain a clean and safe living space by regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Beyond daily care, a thorough pet care plan includes regular grooming, such as brushing and nail trims, and staying up-to-date on veterinary care, including vaccinations and preventative treatments for fleas, ticks, and worms. For client homes, clear communication is paramount. It is important for me to obtain detailed instructions regarding the pet's specific needs, routines, medications, and any behavioral quirks, as well as emergency contact information. This holistic approach, combining routine care with attention to individual needs and a focus on safety and hygiene, ensures a happy and healthy life for any pet under my care.

“Dennis is personable, prompt, and flexible. He offers a variety of services for your canine companion. I appreciated his very thoughtful observation of my dog’s body language, behavior, and preference cues - Elliot can take a moment to warm up to new friends and lives to play with his flirt stick. I would, without reservation, recommend Dennis as your walker, play date companion, and house sitter.”

“Angela is a gem! I was planning a road trip with my 7.5 year old Norwegian Elkhound, Grayson (med. size) from Terre Haute, Indiana to Clinton, NY to visit family just recently in October of 2025. There were a lot of pieces of the of the puzzle to figure out and I started my internet and calling search in August. I was going to be staying at my mother's Senior apartment complex, celebrating her 87th birthday, but they do not allow visiting/staying dogs. My brother lives nearby but due to teenagers coming and going and having a small dog I needed to find other accommodations for Grayson. I called, emailed and options were few and far between. Some boarding kennels were too expensive or already booked, or had rules that the dog must stay until final pickup. Independent pet/home sitters not on Rover did not return emails. I needed to be able to take Grayson out a couple of times during the trip so that my mom could see Grayson as well as enjoy some of the Clinton fun spots with him while there. I also needed to pick Grayson up for the weekend to visit relatives in Massachusetts, then return him for another pet stay the next week. Angela was literally the last person I reached out to (having never used Rover and was unsure at first to use the service) and she got what I was trying to accomplish! We had seamless communication through Rover for initial Q & A and then had a couple of video chats to confirm that this was a match! The Rover app is similar to Airbnb where communication, reservations, and payment are done over the platform. When it was time for travel, Angela let us know she was ready for us! Grayson stayed with Angela Monday through Friday with a mid-week pick up for an afternoon, then picked up Grayson for the weekend getaway visiting relatives. Then Grayson spent Monday through Wednesday of the next week with Angela. Let me just say Grayson fell in love with Angela and Angela fell in love with Grayson! Angela is very attentive with all the details, and all the things you bring to make your pup comfortable (meds, crate, blankets, etc all was handled with care!) Grayson loved all the walks and attention she gave him! It was fun making the drive from Clinton to Angela's, about a 30 min. drive and her town is so pretty, especially with the fall colors and stopping at the local museum and produce stands was so enjoyable. I felt totally comfortable the whole trip that Grayson was well cared for. Angela went the extra mile with lots of attention, walks, brushing and getting an extra bone when I forgot mine. Without Angela, this road trip would not have happened as I really wanted to bring Grayson and have my mom see him as time marches on and wanted mom to see Grayson before any more time went by. Angela made my dream trip come true! Grayson and I even had a side trip to Niagara Falls and I will remember this trip forever! I plan to do this roundtrip again and will definitely book Angela again! I recommend Angela as an exceptional pet/home sitter! For any travelers out there with itineraries like mine, you will be in great hands with Angela! Thank you, Angela, your care for Grayson totally warmed my heart! Your service and care were impeccable! When I set up the next road trip, I will be in touch! Kris A, Terre Haute, Indiana”
“Becky made me feel very comfortable leaving my 1 year old pup for an overnight stay. She was very welcoming and Arlo was clearly loved during his stay. She provided lots of updates/ pictures (which put me at ease)... I recommend Becky and will be bringing Arlo back for upcoming stays!”
“As always we love Tracy! She is so friendly and flexible and loves our Mochi like her own. She's safety oriented and he always has a great time playing and running at her house. We're so glad we found her and would recommend her with no hesitation to anyone looking for a safe and loving place to watch their pup! Thank you so much =)”
“Can't have enough stars! She has now cared for my dogs twice and I will be bringing them here again. Fantastic, she communicates and keeps me updated on my pups every day, even sending photos. I don't have to worry when I leave my dogs with her.”
“Morgan was fantastic! I contacted her relatively last minute to watch my puppy for a full day and she enthusiastically agreed to help me out! She kept my feisty pup safe, entertained, and tired out! I’m very grateful for her. And as the cherry on top, she came home and slept all night (a much needed full nights sleep for me, as well 😂)”
“Jenna (and Tom!) were wonderful to work with and provided our dog with the ultimate experience while we were away. We knew she was having fun by the great pictures she sent. She enjoyed the deck and lovely grounds along with Stitch. He is the perfect companion for our older dog. This was our first experience with Rover and it could not have been better with Jenna. We have already booked her again.”
“Ginger had such a good time - she couldn’t decide if she wanted to stay or come home! Wonderful family, home, and care. Flexible sitters. Will return!”
“Geoffrey went above and beyond to keep us updated while we were away. He's extremely communicative and took great care of our dog, Archie. We know Archie had a great time at Geoffrey’s house and we would definitely recommend Geoffrey’s services to anyone in need!”
“Katie has been amazing on keeping me up to date on how my puppers was doing/adjusting. She sent photos for a few updates as well!! We will be back again and I know Maple is already excited to get back there!”
“Thomas was awesome! My wife and I have been using Rover for a few years, and this was our first time booking with him. The experience exceeded our expectations. We have a very shy Schnauzer, but Thomas and his family treated him like one of their own. It was clear that they genuinely cared for him and made him feel comfortable while we were away. We also ran into some unexpected complications when returning from our trip, and Thomas was incredibly understanding and accommodating. His flexibility and willingness to help made a stressful situation much easier and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your fur baby with love and care, I highly recommend Thomas. We will definitely be booking with him again!”
“I needed a last minute boarding for my dog on Memorial Day Weekend. I had never used Rover previously but a friend recommended it. At first, I was a little nervous leaving my dog with strangers but didn’t have many other options. I brought my dog to Matthew and Christie’s house to meet them and their dog a day or two prior and was immediately relieved. They have a very pet friendly set up, fenced in yard, and our dogs immediately became friends. While I was out of town, they sent me updates and pictures, responded to all my messages immediately, and made me comfortable knowing my dog was in excellent hands. I will definitely be recommending them to anyone who needs a doggy sitter!”
“Kara was a kind and energetic person who bonded with our dog immediately. Mac was a happy dog who was not in a hurry to leave Kara’s care when we picked him up at the end of his stay. We will have a safe and healthy place to care for our dog in the future. Thank you,Kara.”
“11/10. My dog had such a great time with Jose, it’s like she’s the one who had a vacation! Jose is extremely good about communicating and sending pictures, and it was a really nice experience to receive updates throughout my dog’s stay without needing to prompt for them. My dog had ample space to get her energy out, and with an additional bonus of having an active sitter to do activities with, there was never a doubt that she was receiving anything less than the care I’d provide her at home. I recommend Jose to anyone looking for a reliable sitter, a comfortable stay for their pet(s), and peace of mind—my dog is certainly looking forward to another stay!”
“Angel is awesome! She is very caring and knowledgeable about dogs. She sent pictures and texts. I’ve never seen my dogs smile as big as they did with the pictures she sent. We will be back and Angel is our new sitter! She has a huge yard with many toys too! I really can’t say enough about her!”
“Slim had an amazing time playing and hanging out with Liz, her family, her dogs, and her doggy day care dogs while we were on vacation. He was exhausted from all of the playing and could barely stay awake for the car ride home. We would definitely use her for any other boarding or daycare needs that we may have.”
