“My best friend Bernie… And energetic and very social beagle… spent a lovely six days with Zachary and his dogs. He was sad to go home, which made ME feel kind of bad but at least I know he had a good time! Zachary was an excellent communicator, and offered photos of Bernie during his stay. Large fenced yard.”

“Kim is so wonderful! My dog is young and gets food aggressive with other animals, but she handled it great and was very accommodating to her needs. Her two dogs are so sweet and her home is a great environment for my dog. My dog seemed very comfortable and loved. I received plenty of pictures (which I adore). I would highly recommend Kim to care for your pup!”

She also sent lots of pics and allowed me the opportunity to watch them through camera footage. She was great!”

“I recently boarded my dog for 5 nights, and we had a wonderful experience from start to finish with Shayna. She’s caring, attentive, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Bowser in her hands. We received updates and could tell he was getting plenty of love, attention, and exercise. He was happy, healthy, and well cared for, which gave me peace of mind. I truly appreciate the excellent care she provided and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter. I will definitely use her again when I can afford it.”

“My dog Dylan was very happy to stay with Peter! Even though Dylan is very shy, he warmed right up to Peter and his dog Winston. I am glad that Dylan had a friend to play with during his time away form me! Dylan slept the whole next day when we got him back because of all the playing (LOL)! Overall, I would definitely pick Peter to watch Dylan again if need be!”

“Megan was a God-send for me. I needed a sitter to watch Gracie while my husband and I were on our honeymoon. 3 weeks before the wedding I had some car issues that resulted in added stress to me. Megan worked with me on getting things booked, and knowing that having Gracie taken care of w was so relieving during that time. Her kids were amazing with Gracie and we loved getting daily updates on our sweet girl. We will definitely use Megan and her boys for Gracie in the future. Thank you sooo much for loving our girl.”

“Ramona was everything her positive reviews said she was and more. She provided us exceptional care, and was very accommodating. She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay. We will deff refer and use again.”

About: I stand out as a dog walker by providing a level of care that goes beyond a standard walk, focusing on reliability, communication, and personalized attention for every dog. I tailor each walk to fit the dog’s energy level, age, and temperament, while keeping owners informed with updates and photos so they feel confident and at ease. I take pride in being punctual, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs, whether that means a high-energy outing or a calm, gentle stroll. I also bring a professional yet friendly approach, building trust with both pets and their owners. By combining consistency, thoughtful extras, and genuine care, I create a positive experience that keeps both dogs happy and owners coming back. Dog walking fits naturally into my daily routine, as I already prioritize getting outside for exercise and fresh air. I’m an outdoor enthusiast who enjoys walking regularly, and having a dog as a companion makes it even more enjoyable and rewarding. I’m available after 6:00 PM Monday through Friday, as well as anytime on weekends, which allows me to provide consistent and flexible care for pet owners with busy schedules. This routine not only benefits me but ensures dogs get the attention, activity, and companionship they need on a regular basis.

I am reliable, punctual, and communicate clearly with owners, keeping them informed about their dog’s activities and any concerns. My experience as an outdoor enthusiast means I’m comfortable handling dogs of different energy levels and temperaments in a variety of environments. I treat each dog as an individual, providing consistent attention and care, and I take responsibility seriously, ensuring every walk is safe, enjoyable, and stress-free. Owners can have confidence knowing their pets are in capable, attentive hands.

“Katie was attentive to our two fur babies! She is our first official pet sitter and we are very pleased! We asked for small extras like getting the mail and watering a couple flower baskets during our vacation…she did that and more! She watered all plants during a heat spell and even brought back our garbage bins! Our normally shy kitty always came over to greet Katie upon her arrival. That made us feel very good! We are appreciative of Katie taking care of our two cats!”

“Great communication, daily updates and lots of pictures of our kitty while we were away for the week 😸 Keerie was so sweet and it was great to know our boy was in good hands while we were missing him on vacation! Will definitely rebook in the future.”

About: I’m experienced with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, interactive play, brushing (if your cat enjoys it), administering oral medications when needed, and providing companionship while giving cats the space they need to feel secure. I know that some cats love attention while others prefer a calm, quiet environment, and I’m happy to adapt my care to each cat’s unique personality. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your feline friend is in caring hands. I personally have 2 cats of my own!
About: My husband and I have owned dogs and cats our whole lives and I have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was in high school and have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My husband and I are both approved rover pet care takers so one or both of us may be the one to help! I’m a stay at home mom with a husband who works remote so I’m very flexible! This allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of supervision and companionship while in my care. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets supervised, ensure doors and gates are secure, and pay close attention during walks and outdoor time. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Brianne did an amazing job with my pets! I felt very good leaving them in her hands while I was on vacation. She sent great photos and updates while I was away and the kitties were clearly well taken care of while I was gone. She even did a good job with Sushi-- my more anxious cat.”


“We had the best experience with Maria! She watched our cat for us for 1 week while we were out of town & it could not have gone any better. She dropped by twice a day, gave our cat plenty of love & affection, & sent us lots of pics & updates while we were away which we appreciated so much. Our cat can be very shy but she warmed up to Maria almost instantly & we knew she was in the best care while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Maria again & would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their furry friend :)”

“This was our third or fourth time booking Marie, and she continues to be excellent. Our cats were well-cared for and got plenty of affection. The updates Marie sends are awesome and make it easier to be away from the kitties.”

“Dave was fantastic! He was quick to respond from my initial inquiry. The meet and greet was a success as I could tell my pup loved him right away. Dave was communicative, on time, and followed all instructions. He was tidy and respectful of my home. I felt so at ease knowing my puppy was in good hands and having fun and the photos showing how happy Corbin was were the highlight of my day. Thank you Dave for being so wonderful and taking such great care of Corbin. I know he'll miss you. Hope to book with you again and will absolutely suggest you to friends and family!”

“So glad I came across Lindsay, I had to head out of town last minute and she came in clutch. We weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand but we were able to figure something out and everything turned out fine. Will definitely keep her mind for the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats for as long as I can remember. I am a true cat lady at heart and I’ve been a cat lover since I could walk. I’ve found homes for strays and helped feed and care for them in my neighborhood. Cats are pretty independent and easy to care for, but I have experience with administering specific medications and can help depending on if your pet tolerates it! Can clean cat boxes, feed, water, play and cuddle your pet if you’re away!

About: I have experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I provide patient, gentle, and attentive care, whether your cat enjoys playtime, extra cuddles, quiet companionship, or simply having someone nearby to keep them comfortable while you’re away. I make sure their daily needs are met, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, medication reminders if needed, and plenty of love and attention. I take the time to build trust with each cat and respect their individual preferences, whether they are outgoing and playful or shy and independent. My goal is to give your cat a safe, stress-free experience while providing you with peace of mind knowing they are being cared for by someone who truly enjoys animals
“Rebecca was great! We have a pretty nervous cat and Rebecca got her to open up in their first meeting! Handled everything we requested and even helped bring in our mail while we were gone. Can't recommend enough!”

About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life, and now that I’m recently retired, I have the time to give them the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I treat every dog like part of the family—whether we’re going for a walk, playing fetch, or just relaxing together. With a calm, patient nature and a flexible schedule, I can focus fully on your pet’s needs and routines. You can rest easy knowing they’ll be safe, happy, and loved like one of my own. I am recently retired and am available all of the time. I currently have two small dogs of my own and watching an additional dog would be no trouble at all. If you dog stays with me, they will be treated just like my own pet. I am able to walk them, feed them special diets, or administer oral medication. I am home almost all of the time and can give them the attention they need.
“Catherine and Sean are very accommodating with sudden changes in my schedule. She sends regular updates and pictures about how my puppy is doing. She ensures my pup is mentally and physically stimulated. Weretlucky to use their services!”

“Madison is so sweet and was lovely to my puppy Willow! Her home is very dog friendly and her dog is great with puppies. He was exhausted when he got home! Thank you Madison!”

About: I have always had pets of all kinds growing up along with much love for all wildlife. Currently I have 4 cats, 2 dogs, 3 fish and many snails, and a lot of plants! My dog growing up became diabetic (also blind) and I provided him supportive care for the remaining 5 years he had (including special meals and insulin shots)! I have rescued several cats and found loving homes after getting them medical care (I always keep in touch). One of my cats was a bottle baby after finding her on the side of the road at only 3 weeks old, she is now almost 2. I also provided supportive care for my two eldest cats (11years) after their major surgeries (perineal urethrostomy and gallbladder removal). I am also in the process of obtaining my wildlife rehabilitation permit for I always seem to be brought animals to care for and I would like to do more for them than just transporting to a rehabilitator! I have a lot of room at my house which includes the finished basement area with separate rooms, a mudroom, a large fenced in backyard, and kennels if needed. I'm willing to travel to you, or care for your animals here! All my animals are friendly (successfully introduced and integrated) but if yours needs some privacy I can absolutely provide it. I'm here to help, I hope it's clear how important your fur babies would be to me! I would love to make whatever it is you need happen. I am currently a stay at home mom with my own fur babies. My day starts at 6AM when I wake up to feed and walk the dogs and check to see if the cats need anything. I would be more than happy to care for your animal(s) here or get out of the house and care for them in their home! I have a large fenced in yard, a finished basement with separate rooms, a separate mudroom, and kennels if needed! My 4 cats and 2 dogs roam the house and would love to make new friends, but if your animals are shy, we have plenty of space to accommodate. All I ask is for a clear set of instructions if caring for your pet in your home and you can expect those instructions to be carried out with love and respect for your animal(s) and property. I am also insured for pet care/housesitting through PCI.
“Sarah was incredibly thorough and made sure that my dog felt comfortable in a new space! Thank you so much for your time and giving Lou Lou an incredibly fun experience.”

“Pat was amazing with our dog Lucy. Our daycare had to go over until the morning due to getting home super late and she was very accommodating. Lucy had a blast playing with a new friend! We will definitely be back. Thank you!”

About: Hi, I’m Nicole — a lifelong animal lover and self‑proclaimed helicopter dog parent. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. My babies are in heaven now so I’ve joined rover as a pet sitter. **I kindly request if you’d like to book me, please have your rover profile filled out and photos uploaded.** I’ve spent the last decade-plus loving and supporting two very different pups with very different needs. My 16‑year‑old baby boy chihuahua Harley taught me everything about caring for a truly high‑maintenance senior dog. From medications and special feeding routines to extra snuggles, slow walks, and getting bossed around. ;) I also shared my life with my 11 year old Labrador-baby girl Lexi- who recently passed away from cancer on 5/19. Navigating that journey with her taught me deep compassion, vigilance, and emotional care. I became an expert in monitoring comfort levels, adjusting daily routines, and making every moment count. These experiences shaped the way I care for every dog I meet: with attentiveness, understanding, and the same level of devotion I have given my own. • I treat your dog the way I treat mine — like family. • I am extremely attentive and present. If your pup needs something, I’m there. • Dogs are absolutely allowed on furniture — cuddles are encouraged here. • We don’t have a fence, but I’m a safety‑first sitter. I leash dogs for every potty break and stay right with them. • Because I work from home, your dog will rarely be left alone. **But if I have a doc appt or have to run an errand I will need them to be okay to be left alone** • My home is calm, cozy, and dog friendly. I call myself a helicopter dog parent because I am very cautious- I am checking the pavement temp before walks, we aren’t walking on lawns that have chemical lawn treatment flags, I have a car hammock and dog seatbelt for rides, if I run an errand the dryer won’t be on, etc. Why I Do This I know how much trust it takes to trust someone to take care of your animals. They’re your heart. Your family. Your little shadow. I’ve been in your shoes many times, I’ve used Rover in the past and my goal is to give you that same peace of mind I always looked for — knowing your pup is safe, loved, and truly understood. On weekdays I go to the gym early in the morning and telework daily in my private office with a comfy dog friendly couch. Weekends we usually are on the boat, in the rv, or on the motorcycle so I may be less available but you can see message me and inquire. Our non-smoking home is pet friendly and I have a 12 year old daughter who loves animals. I do not have any animals in my home. For potty breaks your pet would be leashed.
About: Do you need someone to do drop-ins or dog walks? I have you covered! My schedule is very flexible to help with your furry friends’ needs. I even do drop-ins for your kitties! 🐾 Worry less and feel at ease with daily communication and plenty of pictures throughout the day of your fur baby! Why am I qualified to watch your pup or kitty? For starters, I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up and have plenty of experience working with animals, including training and caring for special-needs animals. Your pets will get plenty of love while you’re away, so you can enjoy your time knowing they’re receiving excellent care. 🐾 Do you need boarding for your dog?🐾 Think of it as your pup’s own private doggy getaway! Your pup will enjoy plenty of attention, lots of room to relax, and a large fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. I only board one dog at a time, so your pup receives personalized care and can feel right at home during their stay. Your pet will feel right at home with a daily schedule of outside and inside exercise and of course plenty of love and some relaxing time for pets and cuddles. Your dog will be so loved while you are away. Worry less and book your house stay and enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe and happy.
“Holly was able to accommodate my very last minute booking request and I am so thankful! She took Lucy for a few walks throughout the day and I could tell that Lucy was well taken care of. Thank you again, I really appreciate it!!”

“Monica is the best! Professional and friendly. Easy to work with. You can tell she loves dogs. It’s so hard to trust someone with my pup while I’m at work, Monica eases all my worries. I have loved working with her and would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I am and have been vegan since I was a child. I’ve always had a deep love for and towards animals ever since I can remember. I like to be in animals energy and presence. Even when giving “care” it’s enjoyable and pleasing for me to offer that for your pets. I bring a calm and peaceful vibe to any situation. I want to be a safe and comfortable space for your animals. ~ If you book the house sitting option, I am only available to sit throughout the day. No sleepovers. I currently am a part time student studying vet tech with a fine arts minor! I have a great amount of free time and flexible schedule to accommodate “different” jobs and care. I live in an apartment with 3 cats. I don’t have any closed off areas at the moment and my cats free roam around the house.
About: I’ve been a dog lover since about the age of 10 when we got my family dog, Shadow, a cockapoo. As a kid and while growing up, I even trained Shadow to compete in agility competitions and took him to training weekly while also practicing with him in the backyard! When I moved out, I got my own fur baby- a golden doodle named Bubity! Obsessed doesn’t even begin to describe how much I love my dog as I have a water bottle, pair of slippers, shorts and sweatshirt with him on it! I promise to treat your dog as if they’re are my own! I’m currently working part time as a nurse while also attending classes virtually for my masters. My schedule changes weekly but I usually know it about a month in advance! I am pretty flexible on my days off and and willing to work with you in order to help take care of your fur baby! I have a fully fenced in yard and my 1 golden doodle at home. I am more than happy to host your dog for play dates in our yard. I know how hard it is to get a routine set with your dog whether it be something as simple as turning the TV on before leaving the house, walking a specific route to get them to go potty or giving them a special treat when they’re going to be left alone. Whatever your routine is, let me know and I will follow it to its entirety!
About: I have experience caring for pets, including training puppies and giving extra gentle care to senior pets. What makes me stand out is how much I truly care about each animal’s unique needs and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! Pet care fits smoothly into my daily and weekly routine because I prioritize consistent time for feeding, exercise, play, and rest. I make sure to set aside dedicated moments each day to attend to pets’ needs, whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, so they always feel cared for and comfortable. I can do drop in visits and dog walking any time tuesday-thursday. friday thru monday i can do 6-8:30am and 9-10pm. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe and calm environment. I make sure all areas are pet-proofed to prevent accidents, keep their food and water fresh, and maintain a clean space. I also follow any specific instructions from the owner closely, whether it’s about feeding, medication, or exercise, to build trust and ensure pets feel secure and comfortable.
About: My husband and I have loved getting to dog sit for friends and family. When we heard about rover we got so excited! My husband and I are both runners and are happy to take the dogs we watch on runs/ walks and hikes. We also have enjoyed our new home which came with a fenced in yard. Giving the dogs freedom to run and play is so fun to watch! Every dog we watch feels right at home and we love to cuddle with each and every one. I am currently a stay at home mom for my 5, 4 and 2 year old and think your pup will fit in just right with our fun crew. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I am currently working part time, and I have plenty of time to work your pup into our daily routine. We have three kiddos at home so a routine is something our family thrives on. We have a beautiful fenced in backyard with lots of room to run and play. We also have a crate that can be utilized if need be. There is an extra room we use for dogs to be able to take a break if need be.
“Marie & Jorge love my Rockie like their own. It gives me a lot of ease when traveling and / or away from him all day. I love getting pictures of him during his walks and when he is at day care making friends. I highly recommend them. 😊”

About: I currently have a flexible schedule and looking to help relieve some pent up pupper energy or drop in for a hangout during those long days. Do you have a pup that needs a walk or a fall hike? Are you traveling this Holiday season? I have some Holiday availability for boarding. I am currently between jobs and wanting to explore areas where my passions lie. My greatest joy are my pets and I’d love to help spoil yours. I am highly flexible during the weekdays. I have a fully fenced in yard as well as everything your pet may need.

About: I have 6 years of active dog training and boarding. With over 300 dogs under my belt, I've seen all kinds of temperaments and breeds! I am confident in my dog handling abilities, and have experience with puppies, seniors, and handicapped dogs. I am self employed, so I have plenty of flexibility to accommodate some dog care! Weekends are my favorite days to make appointments. And I have reliable transportation! Respect is paramount. I will do my best to both 1) feel comfortable around your pet (which is important!) and 2) respect your home and belongings.

“Chris was AMAZING with our dog. We were very hesitant to use someone off of Rover and she made us feel very comfortable from the start. She took lots of time to walk and play with our dog, ensuring he had clean paws, treats, and fresh water afterwards! She is great at communicating and giving updates as well. I will absolutely be using her consistently. I’m so grateful we found her!”

About: I'm the guy everyone asks to pet sit because I never say no! I'm reliable, attentive, and patient and never met an animal I didn't like. I'm a freelance artist which gives me loads of flexibility when it comes to scheduling. Short notice is fine. Life throws curve balls sometimes, and I'm here to help. I abide by the golden rule, and treat all animals as if they were my own family. I pay attention to details and follow all specific instructions for our special friends!
About: I grew up always having dogs in the household, but currently do not have any. However, my wife and I have cats. Five to be precise, lol. We've also helped around 40 stray cats over the years get spayed, neutered, or rehomed. It's a sad, never ending battle, but always worth it! I also donate to local shelters and non-profits when I have the funds. Things I offer depending on which service: - Daily walks - Potty breaks, up to 1-5 times per day - Combing at least once per stay - Waste removal - Medication - Play time - Treats! I hope through Rover I am able to bond with your pup or kitty and build friendship & trust with your family.

“My best friend Bernie… And energetic and very social beagle… spent a lovely six days with Zachary and his dogs. He was sad to go home, which made ME feel kind of bad but at least I know he had a good time! Zachary was an excellent communicator, and offered photos of Bernie during his stay. Large fenced yard.”

I am glad that Dylan had a friend to play with during his time away form me! Dylan slept the whole next day when we got him back because of all the playing (LOL)! Overall, I would definitely pick Peter to watch Dylan again if need be!”

“Megan was a God-send for me. I needed a sitter to watch Gracie while my husband and I were on our honeymoon. 3 weeks before the wedding I had some car issues that resulted in added stress to me. Megan worked with me on getting things booked, and knowing that having Gracie taken care of w was so relieving during that time. Her kids were amazing with Gracie and we loved getting daily updates on our sweet girl. We will definitely use Megan and her boys for Gracie in the future. Thank you sooo much for loving our girl.”

“Keith and Rebecca took great care of my dog for the week. They were very responsive and sent me updates every day. Will definitely be back when I need someone to watch my dog again. Highly recommend”

About: I stand out as a dog walker by providing a level of care that goes beyond a standard walk, focusing on reliability, communication, and personalized attention for every dog. I tailor each walk to fit the dog’s energy level, age, and temperament, while keeping owners informed with updates and photos so they feel confident and at ease. I take pride in being punctual, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs, whether that means a high-energy outing or a calm, gentle stroll. I also bring a professional yet friendly approach, building trust with both pets and their owners. By combining consistency, thoughtful extras, and genuine care, I create a positive experience that keeps both dogs happy and owners coming back. Dog walking fits naturally into my daily routine, as I already prioritize getting outside for exercise and fresh air. I’m an outdoor enthusiast who enjoys walking regularly, and having a dog as a companion makes it even more enjoyable and rewarding. I’m available after 6:00 PM Monday through Friday, as well as anytime on weekends, which allows me to provide consistent and flexible care for pet owners with busy schedules.

Owners can have confidence knowing their pets are in capable, attentive hands.
“We had a very positive experience with Marie. She was attentive and adaptive to the needs of our two dogs, and recognizing what they needed in based on their very different personalities. We loved the updates and multiple pictures daily. We highly recommend Marie.”

“Jason was patient and thoughtful with our elderly dog. He made the accommodations we needed to meet his special needs. I was glad he was there for our dog while we were out of town!”


About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for more than five years and understand how important it is to leave your dog with someone you trust. My home has a fully fenced yard of nearly an acre for safe outdoor play, and I’m home most of the time, which means your dog will receive plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. What sets me apart is the home environment I provide. I have a friendly, well-socialized host dog who loves meeting and playing with other dogs, helping visiting pups feel comfortable and included. I focus on creating a safe, fun, and low-stress experience where dogs can play, relax, and feel like part of the family. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and needs, whether they enjoy active play, social interaction, or a quieter environment. My goal is to make every dog feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Being an online school teacher has strengthened my patience, attentiveness, and ability to create a safe, positive environment—qualities that I bring to caring for every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a virtual teacher, I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day.

Because I’m home during the day, I’m able to closely monitor each dog’s needs and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and included. On weekends, holidays, and school breaks, my schedule is even more flexible, allowing for extra playtime, and one-on-one attention Your dog's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities.

“Leaving behind our 5-month-old puppy for an 11-day vacation filled me with nervousness. After speaking to several people, I found Sarah, who I knew was the perfect choice. Sarah's attention to detail was impeccable - she gathered all the necessary information and maintained my puppy's routine flawlessly. Keeping us updated with photos and videos, Sarah's care provided me with peace of mind throughout my vacation. When our puppy returned home, he was just as happy and carefree as if he had never been away.”

“Susan took excellent care of our Penny and sent daily updates and photos. We were very lucky to find a dog sitter who would provide the extra care and attention that our older dog needs.”
“WOW where do I start as words are hard to find for a dog sitter that cares and takes care of your dog like her very own! I have used Mary's services previously with amazing results and so glad she was available again for our trip ! I get continued updates with pictures throughout each day providing me piece of mind about my fur baby! I cannot say enough of her professionalism, attention care, love and affection provided when I cannot be available to give it ! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a worry free environment for your four legged family member! Thank you so much Holly Winning 🙂”

“Athena is so kind and so compassionate, my dogs loved their time wither her & her family. They loved their new friend Rufus❤️ communication was outstanding, lots of pictures. It was such a comfort knowing how well cared for and loved my boys were while I was away. They were part of her family ❤️❤️❤️”


“Savannah was great! She welcomed Charlie with open arms and an open heart! Couldn't have asked for a better caretaker! Five stars just doesn't do her justice...should be ten stars! Thank you Savannah and family! Kathryn and Milt”

“AMAZING FAMILY. They were such a great choice for my girl. All the updates they sent were so awesome. Let alone you can just see the comfort, happiness & fun in my girl. I was worried she wouldn’t want to come home because she was loving it so much! Ava seemed to fit right in with the pack as well as feel right at home with them. Out of all the Rovers we’ve had this by far has been my favorite! ❤️ 🥰”
