“David was incredibly responsive, kind and easy to work with! He took on my elderly 16 year old pup within a 24 hour notice after we found out our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs :( He took great care of her and sent daily updates which we really appreciated! She felt right at home with him and he made us feel very comforted knowing she was in good hands! Will definitely rejoin with him in the future :)”
“Ginger was wonderful. She took our 5 month old puppy for 3 nights. She provided plenty of updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. I’m thankful we found her through this app.”
“Natthinee B is definitely a 5 star. This was my first time leaving my fur brother with anyone while we went away. We received updates twice a day along with beautiful pics. The meet & greet was very good!….. I knew from then it was going to be a lovely experience for my fur brother. Thank you, Natthinee for making fun and feeling like a home for my Frisco.🧡🦋…. Props to your husband as well!🧡”
“Mery and Brad looked after my greyhound Nadia for a few nights and they did a marvelous job! Setting up Nadia's stay was very easy and my messages were replied to promptly. I was also kept updated throughout her stay. Nadia was obviously happy and well looked after when I went to pick her up; I would definitely recommend Mery and Brad to anyone looking for caring and wonderful dog sitters!”
“My dogs came back happy, healthy and tired which is all I can ask for regarding their stay. I have a 13 year old dog that can end up overdoing it but no limping at all. Jen was responsive and I felt comfortable leaving Moana and Whiskey in her care while I was in Florida. I wish I had found her sooner. Definitely will be coming back.”
“Anna was great! We received daily messages and photos of our dog's status. She paid attention to the needs of our dog. He was given a bath and had his nails trimmed, which was the best!! We even received a report card on pick up! Anna did a great job and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Maegan was flexible with our appointment. We had an important meeting on Monday and she canceled Monday. Abby had a good time. She came home and was calmer than she has ever been.”
“Mike and Amy are the best. Tonight when they dropped Buddie off, Buddie did not just fly out of the car to greet me. I had to go around to the open door and watch him wagging his tail like crazy in the back of their car and for a moment, I believe he was conflicted because he loves Mike and Amy & Bear so much that he didn't want to choose! It was sweet and made me happy that boarding him didn't seem to work out because Mike, Amy and Bear give him nonstop attention and love that no boarding place could. 💙”
“Camilla took great care of our dog Rosie. Rosie loved the attention Camilla gave her, and she loved playing with the other dogs Camilla had boarding. Camilla had no problem giving Rosie her daily medications, and we think she looks healthier now than when we dropped her off at the beginning of our vacation. We will definitely contact Camilla when we need care for Rosie.”
“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”
“This was our first time using this type of service versus a boarding facility and I wish I had known about Rover in the past. After reading reviews on so many we decided to board with Tiffany and we are so glad we did. It was a nice feeling while away, we knew our two dogs were safe, were not locked in kennels and were able to run around and play with her dogs like they were part of the family. Being in a home setting versus a kennel, I'm sure was much less stressful on them as well. Many times at boarding facilities there is constant barking and chaos, so a home setting is the way to go. I'm also sure our boys received some one on one attention and petting from Tiffany and not for an extra fee like the facilities charge. As long as Tiffany will have them back, her home is the only place I will take them when we travel.”
“I can’t say enough about Jaya & her family taking care of my dog Barley like he was one of theirs. She was quick w/ responding, and her communication was thorough. Barley loved his “sleep over” playing w/ Jaya’s cute pup Biscuit in her big back yard. She made me feel like Barley was safe & would be cared for just like her own. We’ll surely be hoping she is available again for our next pet sitting need. Thank you Jaya !”
“I had Sophie, a greyhound, for a year and had never left her...she is shy and likes her comfy life e.g. Sleeping on the couch and company. Both of those needs were met. Peg kept me up to date... I loved the pics! So glad I found a home to leave her where she was cared for and loved by a true pet lover! Thanks Peg (and family!).”
“Kathleen took excellent care of my chihuahua, Cody. Over the course of a month, I boarded him with her a few times each week, and I always felt confident he was in great hands. She was responsive, kind, and incredibly patient, not just with my (very energetic!) chihuahua 🙃, but with me as well. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Tatiana was fantastic with our two pups for a five night stay. Communication was great throughout the process, scheduling drop off and pick up was easy. She sent us pictures daily. Both dogs were happy and in good spirits when we picked up.”
“We are repeat clients of Marianne and could not be happier. When we leave our dog in her care he is happy and very well taken care of. He gets lots of snuggles and treated as part of the family. I’d recommend Marianne to anyone!”

“We’re so grateful to have found Gillian! She did an amazing job taking care of our kitties – everything was clean, the cats were happy, and we came home with peace of mind. It’s been hard finding someone who’s reliable and attentive to cleanliness, so we’re incredibly thankful! Definitely recommend!”
“Rachel was great watching our cats. Send us a message update everyday and photos. Recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter and would absolutely hire her again when we go away”
“Amy was awesome! She took great care of my pets and gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. I came home to happy, well-cared-for pets. I would absolutely recommend Amy to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Having to leave when I had a sick cat at home was very stressful to me, but I wanted to keep him at home with his sister to keep his stress levels as low as possible. Nadia did an amazing job with both of my cats and was amazing with the sick one, patiently giving him the medication and fluids he needed daily and respecting his needs as well to keep him calm. I couldn't ask for more than someone who cares for my babies like their own and Nadia provided that for me. I will remember her for the next time I need to take a trip for sure!!”
“Karina is always great taking care of my cats. I think they like her better than me now. Always professional, courteous, and generous with communicating and photo updates during daily visits.”
“This was our third time Jack came over to our house while we were away to check on our cats. Even with our multiple prescription foods and insulin needs, he does a great job taking care of them. Thanks so much! We know our three kids are in good hands when we're away”
“Scott was fantastic while taking care of our cats for the weekend. He clearly has lots of experience with cats and animals of all kinds. Scott made sure to ask good questions regarding their care needs which made me feel very comfortable having him watch our cats while we were gone. I will certainly be having Scott watch them again!”
“Sarah did great with our cats…very reliable and a good cat photographer! She spent a good 30 mins each visit. Kept things tidy, even wound our grandfather clock for us. Would love to book her again.”
“Megan did a great job. Came in everyday and spent time with the cats. She fed them, cleaned their litter, made sure they had water, and played with them. She contacted me each time she was there and let me know how it went. I will be using her again!!”
About: Whether your cat wants endless chin scratches or prefers to judge me from across the room, I’m happy to play by their rules. I’ll make sure they’re fed, loved, and cared for—on their terms, of course. Every feline gets the royal treatment while you’re away.
“Very personable, passionate about animals, and eager to meet my kitties. I think it's a great touch that a meet and greet was offered prior to accepting the appointment. Illustrates the flexibility and compassion required to care for my kitties. Having knowledge and the ability to give my special needs cat medication was a huge plus! Would absolutely hire again!”
“I highly recommend Camilla! Camilla was a fantastic sitter for my cat while I was away for a couple of days! As someone who gets anxious leaving their pet in the hands of someone else, Camilla reduced this anxiety by sending me TONS of pictures of my cat, giving me extremely thorough updates and responding to my messages quickly. I can tell she cares a lot for animals and making them feel comfortable and adjusted in her home. I will definitely be using her service again in the future. Thank you Camilla!!!”
“My cat (Molly) is very shy and usually the cat sitters never see her at all. Molly loved Elizabeth and let her pet her! She is a wonderful cat sitter and I would use her again.”
“I have a very shy cat that has never been seen before by a sitter....that is until Amber! She was so caring and loving that the cat made an appearance, which Amber took photos of and sent me. Unbelievable. A pet-whisperer for sure. Every day she checked in twice and provided pictures of the cat, the litterbox, the food dishes. She went above and beyond collecting the mail, and she even refilled a humidifier each day because my shy cat loves watching it make bubbles at night. She was stellar in keeping everything near and tidy. I cannot recommend her enough. Every friend that has a cat in my area will hear nothing but positive reviews and recommendations. If you think she is "too expensive" keep in mind that Rover takes a huge cut of every sitters fee, leaving them with a lot of work for little money. In the end be kind and tip. Amber - if you're reading this, Talula and her parents can't thank you enough!”
About: My fiancée and I currently have 4 cats with varying personalities. I have experience from energetic cats that require play time to cats that don’t want me to know they exist to cats that want to be in your skin. We use automatic feeders but my schedule allows for me to feed a cat multiple times a day.
About: I have 2 of my own cats, and I’ve spent time volunteering with cats at a shelter. I love cats of all temperaments, so if you have a cat that likes to hide or a playful cat that needs attention, please reach out. I would love to help care for your cat and spend some time with them.
About: Since retirement from teaching special education over 25 years, I have been caring for this woman's 2 Maine Coons for 3 days a week for almost 3 years. I stay overnight when their mom is gone for extended periods of time. I also do light cleaning for an extra fee. I will pick up any messes, feed, play with and clean their litter boxes.

“Jack has been great with my dog. she goes twice a week for daycare and she is always excited to get there and never wants to leave. Jack has been very flexible and professional!”
“We are extremely grateful to have found Anna for our puppy. Chloe had an amazing day full of fun away from her family for the first time. We are so blessed to have found Anna and we definitely will be booking her for the future. Not only is it a fun, loving, safe place but also you can tell she is experienced and loves caring for fur pets. She gave us a report at the end, with a goodie bag and some printed pictures from our pup. She went above and beyond! ❤️🐾”
“Gillian and Mitch and their four pups are absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming of Biscuit, who fit right in with the pack and had a blast. Came home completely tired and ready for dinner and sleep! Gillian kept me posted if his activities throughout the day. We will definitely go back to her.”
“David was able to book us within a few days notice and was very friendly and took great care of our dog. he communicated frequently and was able to work with Benders first time being at day care which I really appreciated. Would absolutely book again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I could remember. I love them so much. Everyone calls me the dog whisperer whenever they need a helping hand with their fur babies. I do charge an additional fee for gas, due to gas prices being so high and the high intake I receive from my guests. I currently work part time but I’m available usually after 9am throughout the week. I do work weekends usually but I can be flexible with stopping in the morning and evenings times for your fur babies. I am temporarily in a transition moving right now, for the Army National Guard. I am living at Home until I receive my new orders. So I will come to you for any of your visits you need for your fur babies!
“Tatiana was amazing! She took care of my two pups very last minute and was very understanding if we were later than expected! Sent me pictures and updates throughout the day 😊. She treats them like they are her own. She also was very considerate with taking everything slow with them (introducing to her dogs). She’s an awesome pet sitter and definitely will be using her again!”
About: First time clients can use the promo code below for a discount on your first booking. DAWNA60239 My profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/dawna60239 I have taken care of dogs since I was in my early teens. In addition, through the years, I have also been a pet parent to a horse, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, tropical fish, goldfish, and hamsters. Family and friends routinely ask me for pet care advice since I have had pets for so many years and trained my own puppies through self teaching. I also have experience administering medications. I care for my own four dogs on a daily basis ranging in age from 3 to 17 and have raised them from puppies. We have play time and snuggle time at different times each day. There is plenty of extra time and love each day to care for your fur baby too. I have a fenced yard on just under 1/2 acre, and my four dogs love to romp and play which is part of their daily routine. They also love long walks or going for a car ride. They are all crate trained and feel that their crate is their special place, so the doors are always open for them to have their alone/rest time when they want to after play time (if they are not trying to claim a spot on the couch or in the recliner). One especially likes the couch and the others love to sleep in bed at night.
“Definitely recommend Natthinee as a dog watcher!! My boyfriend and I left our dog Emma for the day, and she had a blast. Natthinee provided texts and video updates throughout the day. Our energetic dog came back exhausted and happy. We will definitely go back to her in the near future!”
“Brad and Mery were wonderful, and took great care of our dog Maisie. I loved getting pictures and updates daily- it made me feel much better being away! I highly recommend, and hope to use them again in the future!”
“Marianne is absolutely wonderful. I'm very grateful to have found Marianne after going through a few different sitters. She is fast and great at communicating, reliable, spends a lot of time with my pup and takes her on so many walks, clearly cares a lot about my pup, and is incredibly kind and a dream to work with. My pup also totally adores Marianne as well. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Lianna was absolutely wonderful! I could tell right away how much my 5 month old pup, Snowball, liked her. Snowball seemed so happy and relaxed when I picked her up, and Lianna was so kind as well! She was also so accommodating with a last minute scheduling conflict that I had. Absolutely would recommend!”
“Tiffany is a wonderful host, and Sunny had a terrific place to stay. A big comfy couch for the pups, a doggy door leading to a big fenced yard, and three very friendly pups of her own. Looking forward to a return trip later when we’ll be gone for a week. And looking forward to checking out the delicious looking cakes, cupcakes, & cake pops she custom makes!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Been boarding and running daycare full time for 10+ years. I have studied dog behaviors, CPR trained, used to train and have spent my life learning dogs. Part of my business is even making pet products like bow ties, bandanas, toys, healthy treats, signs and organic paw wax. I run my boarding and daycare full time. It is what i live every day. I board 7 days a week and run daycare Tues-Fri We have a large dog specific room which daycare is run out of (while boarding your dog can join daycare for no extra cost) this room has a dog door that leads to the large fenced in yard. Once daycare is complete or dog dependent, the door comes open and the pups join our pack (2) snuggling on the couch and begging in the kitchen 😉
“Julianna is absolutely amazing!! She will always be my go to dog sitter when my family isn’t available to help!! She’s amazing with my puppy very understanding of how he’s still in the puppy faze and is on top of communication with us!! When you want you animals to feel like their at home Julianna is the girl to go to!!♥️🐶”
“Sierra took great care of my elderly dog. He was so content when I picked him up that he didn’t want to go home. She kept him separated from the other dogs, but in the same room, so he could see and interact with his new friends without any risk to him physically. My little potato really enjoyed his time there and I’ll be bringing him back!”
About: I have two fur babies of my own, so I understand that trusting someone else to care for your pet can be challenging. However, sometimes we don't have a choice. With me, you won't have to worry at all; I will love and spoil your furry friend just like I do with my own. I absolutely adore dogs and wish I could have more! You can rest assured that your pet will be in good hands and will have playmates to feel comfortable with. My female dogs are very loving and playful. Bella is 6 years old and weighs 33 lbs, while Chloe is 4 years old and weighs 68 lbs. I would love to care for your pet and provide them with a warm home filled with love, attention, and furry friends. I work from home several times a week. I am home on the weekends. While your fur baby is in my care, they will receive my full attention. While your pet is in my home, they will be loved and treated as a part of the family. They are welcome to sit or lie on the sofa, and I also have pet beds available if they prefer to use those or they can bring their own.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 5 years old, when I got my very first dachshunds—Peanut and Sweetie. By the time I was 9, I had adopted a shelter dachshund and raised two more dachshund puppies, bringing my total to five dogs at once. I personally trained all of them, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding dog behavior, especially with independent or energetic breeds like dachshunds. Throughout middle school and my teen years, I helped neighbors by dog sitting, walking, and doing drop-in visits, often just for playtime and companionship. One of the dogs I cared for regularly was a sweet senior named Duke, who I’d take outside and spend time with while his owner was away. These experiences taught me how to adapt my care for both high-energy pups and older dogs who need a gentler, more patient approach. In addition to my pet care experience, I am also a dancer, choreographer, and educator. Through years of teaching and working with students of all ages, I’ve developed strong skills in patience, attentiveness, and understanding individual needs—qualities that naturally carry over into the way I care for animals. I also have years of experience caring for cats—both my family’s and now my own sweet cat, Tom. I understand feline behavior, how to earn their trust, and how to create a calm, safe environment where they feel comfortable while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom to my 2-month-old baby, I’m home often and have a flexible, attentive schedule. I truly value creating a calm, safe, and loving environment—for both pets and people. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, small breeds, or shy kitties, I bring patience, love, and reliable care to every visit. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I build my schedule to be available when pets need me most—whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime. I’m flexible, dependable, and happy to accommodate different routines, including weekend or last-minute needs. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like a chore to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I prioritize each pet’s safety and comfort above all else. In your home, I follow your routines closely to ensure your pet feels secure and stress-free. I always keep a close eye on surroundings during walks, avoiding unsafe areas or triggers. I’m familiar with handling pets with anxiety, special diets, or medication needs, and I treat every space with respect—leaving it clean and exactly how I found it. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet during a walk, you can count on me to show up with calm energy, attentiveness, and love.

“Gillian is a dream! She was an instant hit with our pups and meeting her prior to the day the dogs needed her care put us at ease as her warm and welcoming personality instantly confirmed for us that she would take good care of our dogs. Her availability is awesome and she was even able to help us with a very last minute request. Rest-assured, your beloved pets will be in great hands with Gillian 🩷”
“My dog responded to Sarah’s calm demeanor very well at their first meeting. Sarah is extremely patient with her and she sends me updates and photos after each walk, which I love. Ghost seems to be taking to her very well. I feel very fortunate to have found Sarah!!”

About: Hi, I’m hoping to become your pet’s new bestie. I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely gets excited about wagging tails, purring greetings, dramatic cat stares, zoomies, and all the little quirks that make every pet unique. Whether you need house sitting, dog walking, cat care, or a flexible helping hand, I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine. Early morning walks? No problem. Midday potty breaks? Absolutely. Evening snuggles and overnight stays? Happy to report for duty. I believe pets are happiest when they feel safe, loved, and understood, so I do my best to keep their routine consistent while giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own — with patience, kindness, respect, and probably a few extra compliments about how adorable they are. I’m comfortable with dogs, cats, and pets with big personalities, shy personalities, senior personalities, and “I run this house” personalities. My goal is simple: give you peace of mind while making sure your pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. If your pet enjoys walks, cuddles, playtime, treats, or simply having a calm and caring human nearby, we’ll probably get along great. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I offer a flexible schedule and understand that every pet has different needs. Whether you need early morning walks, evening drop-ins, overnight house sitting, or care while you’re traveling, I’m happy to work with your routine. My goal is to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your home and your pets with the same respect and care I would my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and medications to favorite walking routes, playtime, and bedtime routines. I know every pet is unique, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever helps them feel safest, happiest, and most comfortable while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos for extra peace of mind.
“Tyasia is very good with my rambunctious 100lb Ruby. She handles Ruby very well and she even loves on my little dogs when she comes to walk Ruby. I would recommend Tyasia 100%. She sweet and kind to my pups.”
About: Hello my name is Jason, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to your dog's unique personality and energy levels. I prioritize safety and engagement above all else. I provide consistent updates, ensuring you always have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I treat every furry friend like family and look forward to making our walks the highlight of their day! What I offer: M-F Mid day around 11am-1pm And afternoon from 4pm-8pm Weekends: Anytime! Please reach out for other hours as I am flexible, and would love to make it work! Since I offer both in-home visits and boarding, my approach focuses on maintaining your pet's comfort and routine regardless of the setting. Here is how I handle care for both: When I visit your home, the goal is to keep your pet’s environment as stable as possible. Routine Maintenance: I follow your specific feeding, medication, and exercise schedules to the letter so your pet feels like you never left. Security & Safety: I ensure your home is secure upon arrival and departure. I also check for any household hazards or messes that need tidying. Quality Companionship: Beyond the essentials, I spend dedicated time playing, brushing, or just sitting with your pet to alleviate any separation anxiety. Boarding (My House) When a pet stays with me, I treat them like a temporary member of my own family. Safe Space: I provide a clean, pet-proofed environment with designated areas for resting, eating, and play. Supervised Socialization: If I have other pets in the house, all interactions are closely supervised and introduced slowly to ensure everyone stays happy and safe. Constant Monitoring: I keep a close eye on behavior, appetite, and energy levels to ensure they are adjusting well to the new surroundings. The Golden Rule: No matter the location, I prioritize fresh water, clear communication (including "pupdates"), and lots of positive reinforcement. My goal is a happy, relaxed pet and total peace of mind for you.
About: I work part time and am pretty flexible with my schedule. My fiancée and I currently have 4 cats but I grew up with dogs. I love dog sitting for friends and family. My previous dog was diabetic so I have given insulin and have with experience with senior dogs. I currently work part time so I have a lot of time to play with your animals!

“Lianna was wonderful! I knew my fur baby was being well taken care of. She knew I was anxious leaving my baby so she sent me multiple pictures of every outing so I could see how Tessie was? She was prompt, fed Tessie and made sure she took her medicine everyday for her chronic condition. I highly recommend Lianna if you are in need of pet sitter/walker. I have already booked her again for my next out of town trip when I cannot take my baby.”
About: I have two fur babies of my own, so I understand that trusting someone else to care for your pet can be challenging. However, sometimes we don't have a choice. With me, you won't have to worry at all; I will love and spoil your furry friend just like I do with my own. I absolutely adore dogs and wish I could have more! You can rest assured that your pet will be in good hands and will have playmates to feel comfortable with. My female dogs are very loving and playful. Bella is 6 years old and weighs 33 lbs, while Chloe is 4 years old and weighs 68 lbs. I would love to care for your pet and provide them with a warm home filled with love, attention, and furry friends. I work from home several times a week. I am home on the weekends. While your fur baby is in my care, they will receive my full attention. While your pet is in my home, they will be loved and treated as a part of the family. They are welcome to sit or lie on the sofa, and I also have pet beds available if they prefer to use those or they can bring their own.
About: I've had pet dogs for over 35 years. Although I don't have one currently, it is a goal of mine to adopt one in the near future. I trained my American Eskimo puppy to be an amazingly obedient and smart pet. He was mine for over 14 years until his passing. I am very calm and patient. I also will do light cleaning for an extra fee. I'm a retired Special Education teacher and have a lot of spare time on my hands. I'm flexible and dedicated to my employers and their pets. I live in an apartment that accepts pets, however I would prefer to work in your home first to see if they would be comfortable in my home. Their health and well-being are my first priority. I have references if requested about my work ethics, great attention to their pets and my ultimate respect for their home.
About: I have had all types of pets but dogs are the smartest they bring so much joy to the family.. I have had punky for 2 years and I can't see my life without her. I consider myself a good pet parent. I walk her feed her and give treats 3 or more times a day, we play fetch and give great belly rubs. I spoil her constantly. I'll treat your pet like I would mine. I think you dog will enjoy being in my care. If you need to communicate during the stay please feel free to contact me. I will be happy to send pictures of your pet. I k ow this will put you and your pet at ease with the stay.

“Ginger was wonderful. She took our 5 month old puppy for 3 nights. She provided plenty of updates and pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our puppy with her. I’m thankful we found her through this app.”
“Mery and Brad looked after my greyhound Nadia for a few nights and they did a marvelous job! Setting up Nadia's stay was very easy and my messages were replied to promptly. I was also kept updated throughout her stay. Nadia was obviously happy and well looked after when I went to pick her up; I would definitely recommend Mery and Brad to anyone looking for caring and wonderful dog sitters!”
“My dogs came back happy, healthy and tired which is all I can ask for regarding their stay. I have a 13 year old dog that can end up overdoing it but no limping at all. Jen was responsive and I felt comfortable leaving Moana and Whiskey in her care while I was in Florida. I wish I had found her sooner. Definitely will be coming back.”
“Anna was great! We received daily messages and photos of our dog's status. She paid attention to the needs of our dog. He was given a bath and had his nails trimmed, which was the best!! We even received a report card on pick up! Anna did a great job and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Maegan was flexible with our appointment. We had an important meeting on Monday and she canceled Monday. Abby had a good time. She came home and was calmer than she has ever been.”
“Mike and Amy are the best. Tonight when they dropped Buddie off, Buddie did not just fly out of the car to greet me. I had to go around to the open door and watch him wagging his tail like crazy in the back of their car and for a moment, I believe he was conflicted because he loves Mike and Amy & Bear so much that he didn't want to choose! It was sweet and made me happy that boarding him didn't seem to work out because Mike, Amy and Bear give him nonstop attention and love that no boarding place could. 💙”
“Camilla took great care of our dog Rosie. Rosie loved the attention Camilla gave her, and she loved playing with the other dogs Camilla had boarding. Camilla had no problem giving Rosie her daily medications, and we think she looks healthier now than when we dropped her off at the beginning of our vacation. We will definitely contact Camilla when we need care for Rosie.”
“Kassandra and Johnathan were great with our Puppy Leo! He is a big ball of energy and they were great with him and he loved playing with their dog Charlie. I would recommend to anyone in the area and will definitely bring Leo back when we need boarding again!”
“I had Sophie, a greyhound, for a year and had never left her...she is shy and likes her comfy life e.g. Sleeping on the couch and company. Both of those needs were met. Peg kept me up to date... I loved the pics! So glad I found a home to leave her where she was cared for and loved by a true pet lover! Thanks Peg (and family!).”
“Kathleen took excellent care of my chihuahua, Cody. Over the course of a month, I boarded him with her a few times each week, and I always felt confident he was in great hands. She was responsive, kind, and incredibly patient, not just with my (very energetic!) chihuahua 🙃, but with me as well. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
“Tatiana was fantastic with our two pups for a five night stay. Communication was great throughout the process, scheduling drop off and pick up was easy. She sent us pictures daily. Both dogs were happy and in good spirits when we picked up.”
“Samantha and her family are amazing. Honestly. My first time boarding my 3 month old puppy and they made it so easy. Communication and kindness!! Such genuine people. Thank you for everything!!”
“Brandon did great with Shalom! I felt very comfortable leaving her with him and his family. He was very flexible with our drop-off and pick-up times, and was very accommodating to our dogs needs as well!”
“Even though this was short notice, Jillian was excellent with Ezra! She sent videos, photos, and updates about what was going on during the night and day. I felt at peace knowing my boy was in great hands. If you're looking for a responsible, loving, caring sitter, look no further.”
“We are so glad we found Marina! We decided to try Rover last minute to board our dogs before a trip and her profile immediately stuck out. She was professional, gave our dogs great care and kept us updated throughout. We were able to really enjoy our time away without having to worry about how our dogs were doing. We would use her again and again to watch them! She also gracefully dealt with our very active puppy who presents her own set of challenges! She was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. We really can’t say enough good things! Thanks again Marina!”
“Lianna was amazing. This was my first time using Rover and Lianna helped relieve any anxiety I had. Great communication, pictures sent multiple times a day, and answered any questions I had in a timely fashion. I 100% recommend her for your next fur baby stay.”
“This is our 3rd or 4th time booking with John and he never disappoints! He is always such a pleasure and was even able to help us out last minute AND over a holiday weekend! He takes such great care of our elderly dog who usually doesn’t do well in new environments. We are so thankful to have found John :)”
