“We are so sad to leave Nadine! Axel loves her and her crew and cannot recommend her enough to folks! Your animals will be loved on and taken care of. We will miss you so much!”
“Kristopher was truly a lifesaver. When my original sitter had to cancel unexpectedly, he stepped in without hesitation, and I honestly could not have asked for a better outcome. He was incredibly communicative throughout Izzy’s stay, sending regular updates and photos that gave me so much peace of mind. As a first-time dog mom, that level of care and transparency meant everything and made the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. Izzy came home happy and completely worn out, which tells me she had the best time. I would absolutely recommend Kristopher and will definitely be booking with him again!!”
“Jean has a great sense of compassion and understanding toward dogs and their owners. She kept us informed throughout the boarding and we had a wonderful experience. Look forward to utilizing Jean for future dog boarding.”
“Susie was truly amazing! She treated my dog like family. Sent lots of photos every day. Walked him every day. My biggest fear was that my dog wouldn’t want to come home after spending a week with Susie!! Every aspect of his stay with Susie was more than I could have asked for.”
“We love Leslie! Leslie is very kind, responsible and trustworthy. Razor stayed with her a month ago and Leslie kept me well informed of how Razor was doing (and was very patient with my constant texts to check in on him 😊). Her house and yard are a perfect setup for the pups! Razor came home so content and comfortable (& tired!!) that I knew he loved Leslie and felt right at home. We booked with Leslie again for a second trip and when I brought Razor over, his tail was wagging so much and he ran right to her door to go inside! He didnt even look back to say bye! So thankful to have found someone as amazing as Leslie!!!”
“Nancy is so wonderful - a safe and loving temporary home for our very special little guy. We not only felt comfortable knowing Nancy was giving Teddy the best care, but also that they were probably both enjoying each others company while we were away. Teddy came home in one piece and was his same normal, happy self. Thank you so much for opening your home to Teddy, Nancy - we hope for more visits soon!”
“We were very concerned about leaving our 8 year old fur baby with someone we didn’t know and we couldn’t have been more happy with Kristopher and his wife. They are a sweet couple and obviously love animals. We were thrilled to receive daily photos of a happy puppy. We highly recommend Kristopher and will be using him again when we next need a sitter!”
“HanLan took such good care of my cat while I was away. She sent regular updates showing all the fun adventures he got up to with her cat. They got on so well. It gave me piece of mind knowing she and Her husband took such good care of my cat while I was out of cell phone range. I would use her services again.”
“I could not have asked for a better family to watch my dog! Samantha and Brian were so kind and accommodating with my older dog! My dog had some issues initially acclimating to the new environment and they went above and beyond to make him feel at home. To the extent that Brian slept in the living room with him, where my dog felt most comfortable. Their children and their pup were wonderful with him as well! The family even accommodated me picking my dog up a night early since our holiday plans changed. This family really was a blessing when we needed to leave our dog for the holidays! Thank you again!!”
“Amanda and her family were fantastic. We were confident to leave our dog and was able to enjoy our trip fully without worrying about our furry member of family. She sent me photos and updates daily. Thanks again!”
“Elizabeth and Sterling were fantastic. I booked last minute without much time for a meet and greet, and not only did they oblige and still meet same day, they made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with them. Their dog Lilo is such a sweetheart as well! They provided updates and exercise and I knew my pup was in good hands. Thank you so much for your great care! And I'm sorry again for the late plane arrival on my return!”
“The best pet sitters!!!! So much love and attention given to my fur baby! 🩷 The updates and photos sent to me give me such comfort and joy. I would recommend Juliann and her family to all! 🌸🩷”
“Melodie was wonderful with our Max. Max has anxiety and is also a senior and she took him in as a urgent request while we were on vacation as he wasn't doing well at a family members apartment. She provided pictures which put our minds at ease that we were able to find a good place. When we picked him up it was nice to see she had gates on her front porch entry as he is prone to bolt. Thank you Melodie! As I said, we will put Max into your care again..?”
“What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.”
“Barbara is a great awesome caregiver for my Maggie. She kept us updated every day and it seemed like Maggie probably didn’t wanna come home cause barber shows a lot of love towards animals. I would recommend her highly.”
“Sandra was easy to communicate with. We were anxious leaving our one year older dachshund who is normally very anxious. With Sandra he seemed totally comfortable and she obviously very loving and good to him. So happy to have found someone who loves out puppy and made him feel right at home.”
“Gary & Carol were able to watch our pup, Sterling last minute. They were both kind and Sterling seemed to enjoy his time there. He must've played hard with their adorable doodle as he napped most of the day at home after picking him up. Thank you Gary & Carol!”
“Paul and Arnel do a great job of caring for our pooch. They give her not just feeding, treats, and walks but clearly -- from great photos sent daily -- lots of affection and curled-up comfort. As repeat customers, it's a real comfort for *us* knowing we can leave her in such good hands.”
“This was my first time using rover and I was a bit nervous leaving my dogs with someone that I didn’t know but Bobby and Linda made me feel very confident in their ability’s to take care of our dogs. They gave great updates with pictures and notes on what they did that day. I will recommend them to others and use them again in the future.”
“Our dog seemed to be very happy at Liz's house. Liz was very communicative with us and shared photos throughout our time away. We will definitely ask Liz to care for our dog again!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, having cats growing up and later volunteering with dogs at rescue orgs. My time as a training class assistant for Puppy Manners and New Dog Basics at the San Francisco SPCA gave me valuable skills in positive reinforcement training, socialization, and handling dogs of all temperaments. Beyond dogs and cats, I also have experience with horses, having owned and leased several. I’m comfortable with feeding, turnout, mucking stalls, brushing, and general equine care, making me a well-rounded caregiver for multi-pet households. What sets me apart is my ability to care for pets at all life stages—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to senior pets needing extra patience and comfort. Whether it’s structured walks, reinforcing good manners, or providing a calm and loving presence, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. With a deep understanding of pet behavior across species and a passion for ensuring their happiness and well-being, I go beyond basic care to provide engaging, enriching, and compassionate pet companionship. After our Husky mix’s TPLO surgery in Fall 2024, I’ve decided to make pet care my main focus. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and this shift allows me to dedicate my time and energy to providing top-quality care for pets in my community. With a flexible schedule, I’m available for daily walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and customized care based on each pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday walk, feeding and playtime, or extra TLC for pets recovering from surgery, I tailor my services to fit both routine and special care requirements. My experience with dogs, cats, and even horses means I’m comfortable handling a variety of schedules—from structured training sessions to free-spirited outdoor adventures. No matter the time of day, I ensure pets get the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or my clients’ homes. At my home, we have a fully fenced yard, providing a secure and spacious area for dogs to play and explore. Your pup will also have built-in companionship with our two friendly dogs, ensuring plenty of socialization and fun. For exercise and enrichment, we have scenic trails nearby, perfect for peaceful walks in the woods—giving dogs a chance to sniff, explore, and enjoy the great outdoors. In my clients’ homes, I respect each pet’s unique routine and environment, providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. Whether it’s reinforcing training, maintaining feeding schedules, or ensuring a calm presence while you're away, I treat every pet like they’re my own. No matter the setting, I focus on creating a safe, stress-free, and enriching experience for pets—so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving hands.
“I would rebook with Kat. She took good care of our 3 kitties while we were away. She followed our overly complicated feeding instructions and sent pictures of them eating and a few of them hanging out. One of the weekend days she definitely fed them all breakfast closer to lunchtime, but I still felt like they were in good hands, and in her defense I had expressed some flexibility in their feeding time. She also went out of her way to set our cat camera back up after the cats knocked it over so we could continue spying on one of their favorite hangout spots. Cats were happy and healthy when I got back.”
“Sydney was great during an overnight stay with our cat! She was attentive and I could tell she was really looking out for his needs. When he became a bit antisocial and cried during the night, Sydney didn’t hesitate to reach out and see if there was anything else she could do to make him feel comfortable. Her energy definitely aligned with our cat’s and he got along with her great. Thanks Sydney!”
About: With over two decades of animal care experience, my journey began as a child caring for our family's English Springer Spaniels and cats, where I discovered my natural affinity for animals. This early passion made me the go-to caretaker for classroom pets throughout my school years. As an adult, I've owned several dogs, including a beloved Boxer who shared 10 wonderful years with me, and currently care for two rescue dogs - a Labrador Mix and a Pit Bull Terrier Mix. Through my extensive volunteer work at a local dog shelter since 2021, I manage the daily care and cleaning for up to 25 dogs, many with complex medical needs or behavioral challenges. My professional pet sitting experience spans over three years with private clients, and I've developed expertise in handling medium to large breeds with high energy and prey drive. I'm equally comfortable caring for shy and timid smaller breeds, reactive dogs, and senior pets requiring medication. My feline experience includes managing a Maine Coon cattery of 10-20 cats, and I've cared for cats in all life stages, from newborn kittens to pregnant mothers. Beyond cats and dogs, my animal care expertise extends to reptiles, aquarium maintenance, and farm animals including chickens, goats, and horses. I've also managed large populations of show rabbits, sometimes exceeding 100 animals. I'm comfortable administering medications to all species and have extensive experience managing special needs pets. My clients receive focused, individual attention as I do not combine pet sitting assignments. I currently work full-time Monday - Friday (7 am-3 pm). I also volunteer on Sundays (7 am-11 am). I’m open to weekday availability as long as the pet owner is aware of my work and volunteer schedule. As your dedicated pet sitter, I believe in providing comprehensive care that goes beyond the basics. During my visits, your pets will receive personalized attention through engaging playtime, appropriate exercise, and mental enrichment activities tailored to their energy levels and preferences. I follow your detailed feeding instructions carefully and maintain clean food and water dishes throughout my stay. Understanding your pet's dietary needs is essential - I'll note their treat allowance and any food or environmental allergies to ensure their safety and well-being. Getting to know your pet's unique personality, quirks, and daily routines is a priority for me. I take time to understand their comfort levels, favorite activities, and any special requirements they may have. My goal is to create a stress-free environment where your pets feel secure and content in your absence. Housekeeping is equally important - I take pride in maintaining a clean environment and will ensure your home is in pristine condition upon your return. As part of my service, I'm happy to handle additional tasks such as watering indoor and outdoor plants, collecting mail, and managing trash bins. Your peace of mind is my top priority, both for your pets and your home.
“Arian is such a great cat lover and caretaker!! I felt completely at ease leaving her my keys for drop ins to my place, and from the looks of the photos and videos my cats will honestly miss her once I’m home! Fantastic experience.”
“Savannah was so good with our two cats and then we added a crazy kitten which she was amazing with! Kept them all from eating each other’s food and played games with them. Sure they will be bored with just us now.”
“Lynden was wonderful to work with -- very caring and compassionate -- and it was such a relief knowing she was making daily visits while we were gone.”
“I couldn't be happier :) Tori took care of my four cats in my home while I was out of town almost two weeks. All four are alive, so win! My girls are low maintenance and just needed daily check ins to change litter, drop supplemental food, and make sure the climate in the house was cool enough in summer. She always sent a pic of whatever cat she could find. I would totally book Tori again (thanks, Tori!).”
“Abby is a marvelous pet sitter! Harley was in good hands and it showed when I came home to a happy cat. She kept my place tidy and updated me with plenty of pictures to preserve my sanity. Would highly recommend!”
“We have rebooked Bonnie for drop in visits for both our cat and dog several times. Our pets love her and she goes above and beyond to make sure they have attention and care while we are away.”
“Shianne is a lovely pet sitter. She did drop in care for my cats Finney and Olive and asked all the right questions. Having just moved into my place the cats were a bit aloof and standoffish and still getting used to their surroundings but eventually warmed up to Shianne and even let her pet them. I will definitely utilize her pet sitting services again soon.”

“We recently requested Amir's services for the first time when we went on a short vacation and left our cat at home. We asked Amir to check in on our cat a couple times and check in on water levels, food, etc. We stated that our cat might not come out so the visits would be more chore-driven in nature (food/water). Amir was very timely and communicative. He tried to engage our cat which was above and beyond what we expected. Amir is courteous and trustworthy. If we find ourselves needing a pet sitter in the future, we hope Amir will be available to help us.”

“Hannah and Blake are AMAZING! Ollie has been going there for daycare since he was a brand new puppy and he absolutely loves it. I always feel like he is well cared for in their hands and he gets so excited to see them when he’s dropped off. They have also helped me NUMEROUS times when i’ve needed some last minute care and don’t hesitate to go the extra mile.”

“I was in a bind and needed somebody to take care of my baby girl. It was also on anti-seizure medications. I'm so lucky that he said that he could do it and took very good care of her! I will be using his services again in the future when I need them.”
“The girls had a great time with Alex and his family. I loved feeling that they were well taken care of, Alex sent me text and pictures throughout the day to make me feel comfortable leaving my girls. Alex is very friendly and you can tell he loves what he does. Thank you again for taking such good care of them.”
“Susie and her wonderful family are absolutely a dream come true! I'm so happy I found them. I've used daycare facilities for my little pug, Olive, in the past and she used to come home semi-traumatized by the experience. Definitely not the case with Susie. The second we pulled into her driveway, Olive had her tail wagging and couldn't wait to spend the day with Susie and family! Susie was sooo sweet and I know her daughter loved little Olive too...I can't speak highly enough of them. Seriously, if you're debating who to go with for your doggy...go with Susie. She is kind, extremely flexible, experienced and has such a warm and inviting home. Thank you so much for taking care of my little fur baby...10/10 would recommend and will 100% be taking Olive to Susie for all future daycare!?❤”
“Finn seemed to really enjoy his time at Nicole and Colton’s. He came home a tired and relaxed pup. Great piece of mind for us that he was in good hands. He will definitely visit them again!”
“Our puppy is an athletic, curious bundle of nonstop energy, and Alexi was wonderful with her. She made sure Roxy had opportunities to run zoomies outside, play with water, sniff all the things, and engage with her own dogs and children. She provided frequent text updates and photos and responded immediately to our questions. We'd recommend Alexi to friends with dogs who are looking for a smaller, more personalized, in-home alternative to a large doggy day care.”
“Anastasia was an amazing caretaker for our puppy! We last minute needed to find a sitter and she was able to accommodate. She was very easy to communicate with, and provided lots of photos and updates. It helped ease our minds leaving our puppy with someone for the first time. Would definitely recommend!”
“Sequoia took very good care of our anxious pup to make him feel right at home. She provided great photos and thorough details from the day. We will gladly have our Bruce stay with her again!”
“As usual, Shelly does a fine job of taking care of our pooch. Our dog, Allonsy, has been to doggy day care on a good number of occasions. Never a problem. Shelly chooses appropriate friends for our older dog to play with. Highly recommend Shelly.”
“Ava is an amazing host! This was Dexter's second time with her, although a much shorter stay, Dexter came back home wiped out from all of the playing. I feel very comfortable whenever Dexter's over there playing because I know he's getting love and attention! Highly recommended.”
About: Although I'm new to Rover I have been dog sitting for years, now that I'm retired and have too much free time on my hands I decided to bump it up a notch. I love dogs and my papillon is getting up there in age and lost her sister and this is a great way to give her company and a buddy. I am retired and home more than away. Weather permitting I spend most of my time enjoying the outdoors playing and working in my yard. I have two beautiful landscaped fully fenced acres, lots of room for your fur babies to run and play. My home is well set up for extra paws. I have one senior papillon who could use a buddy.
“Jax needed more exercise and play time with other dogs and we knew that Allen’s was the place he would get it, since we have boarded him there for longer stays. He is very happy there and we are grateful.”
“Bridgitte is always great with our little rescue dog. We always get pictures of them out taking walks, and she takes our dog out to public places like restaurants which is good for her socialization. Bridgitte is super friendly and personable, and couldn't be easier to work with.”
“She was able to take care of my pups short notice. She provided lots of pics. I am traveling and my pups were very nervous about everything. They handled it very well and I'm sure Maggie made it easy!”
About: Everyone needs an aunt nearby to check on their dog or care for their dog when you're away. I will spoil your pup with love and attention like I do with my German Shorthair Pointer! I work from home and have the flexibility to take your pup for a walk or stop by for a quick belly rub and potty break. And, of course, a little playtime! I love all breeds and sizes and respect each dog’s individual personality and needs. I can bring my friendly dog, Oscar, along for some play and socializing or come solo to give all my attention to yours! My goal is to help you worry less about your dog while your away from home to give your dog what they need. I work full time from home. My 1/3 acre lot is wonderful for active dogs like our GSP Oscar. Pups who prefer to lounge and snuggle have a spot in my office on the bed next to my desk. Oscar loves dogs of all sizes and so do I! Whether you need daycare or someone to love your pup while you’re away overnight, my lifestyle and home is ideal! I have a 1/3 acre fully fenced yard with lots of room to run! I allow the dogs on the couch and the bed in my office. Oscar is fully vaccinated and takes monthly Simparica. I regularly pick up poop in the yard. My neighborhood is quiet and safe. I am skilled at walking two big dogs at the same time and often do during my lunch break.
“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”

“Nadine was super responsive and flexible when I needed last minute help with walking my dog. Nadine was great at communicating before and during the walk if there were any questions and being patient with my stubborn boy. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had dogs since I was 16. Cats since I was 20. I have also owned various other animals, including livestock. My schooling helped me learn general animal care and I have had the same dog trainer for 20 years. Our pets have regular vet care. I pet sit for friends and family often, both at their homes and in our own home. Just informational, I do live with males, including teens, who have attended dog training classes and help when I need to step out if the house. I also have a very large yard for lots of running and exercise. I work fill time, but remote. I can choose to be from home or in office so am available to watch pets at home all day, when needed. We have a large fully fenced yard. We do have chickens, but they are gated in their own area. I have a pet gate to keep dogs from going downstairs unattended and a door as backup. I provide a pet water fountain for constant fresh and flowing hydration. Pets get regular treats and training refreshers to keep their minds sharp and engaged. My house is inundated with both cat and dog toys for constant entertainment.
“Shianne was fantastic! This was our second booking with Shianne and our dog was so happy to see her! Shianne has everything we would want in a dog walker - clear communication, patience and skill with dogs, warmth and professionalism. I'll definitely look to Shianne any time I can't walk my own dog in the future.”
About: I worked at a vet clinic for 3.5 years but due to life changes I now work at a pet store and petsit to continue to work with animals while I work towards my goal of working in vet med again. I’m reliable with my own transportation and am very knowledgeable in proper pet care. I am communicative, compassionate, and attentive to animals and their needs. I have been my own friends’ and family’s pet sitter for the past 5 years and I treat every animal as if they were my own while in my care. My whole life revolves around animals; I have 4 cats of my own and have fostered 15 animals successfully in the past year, ranging from cats of all ages, dogs, and Guinea pigs. I also work directly with animals at my job and am looking to continue that path. I have multiple rooms in my home to separate the animals in my care if needed, I have access to professional services if an emergency were to arise while also having knowledge of what to look for in with different medical conditions that can be present in animals. I have a good understanding of animal behavior and I understand their needs.
“Hannah is fantastic. Low-key loves and her loves her. Excuse me one thing though Loki is an English cream golden retriever. I’m not sure whether it was pilot error on my part when I put in what type of doggie is or not, but if it can be changed. It should be changed to an English cream, golden retriever”
“Amir did an amazing job taking care of our dog Yoshi! I knew right away from the meet and greet that he was going to be a great fit. He has a very calm energy and it was the perfect vibe for our Shiba. he was very communicative throughout the time we were out of town which put us at ease. 10/10 I would have Amir take care Yoshi again.”
“Stephanie was great! She gave great updates and gave me piece of mind that Blue was taken care of and got some energy out while I was at work, which ment I could come home to a little less hyper puppy!”

“We had always boarded our dogs in a kennel before so this was our first time leaving them in the house for a quick weekend trip with drop in visits and walks. We came home to happy, well taken care of dogs. Tori did a great job taking care of our cat and now we’ll use her as our go-to sitter for our dogs.”

About: I’ve always known I was an animal lover, but it wasn’t until I got my very own cat at 18 that I finally recognized the great responsibility and deep bond that comes with pet ownership. I have been pet sitting on and off for 10 years and love meeting every furry friend. I have experience with senior animals as well as young, energetic puppies and kittens and am able to carry out your unique care plan. I will make sure your pet is treated with as much care and love as if they were my own.
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs in the house, even one gerbil! Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to care for their animals since the age of 12, and I have experience administering medication and feel comfortable with any extra care your pet may require. I am a freelancer and my last contract ended recently. I am appreciating this downtime, which means I have an open schedule to provide care throughout the day for your pets. I would like to meet your pet in their own environment to keep continuity, and am happy to set up a check-in schedule with you for updates about your pet’s day and routine, including pictures if requested.
About: I have cared for energetic puppies to old man dogs, kittens to old lady cats, rabbits, I have rescued lots of pets that needed special care, I've taken care of aquariums. Whatever care your pets need, chances are I've done something similar at least. I am a student with class on Wednesdays, and I I am available the rest of the week. I have a child, so I'm not available to spend nights away from home. I've had a lot of pets and I understand that every pet is different. I have a lot of time to really spend caring for your pet in the ways you request, whether it's lots of walks to the park, sitting at home getting pets and attention, administering medications. I'm very flexible and understanding to whatever your furry friends needs are.
About: We love all animals and appreciate their intelligence and respect their feelings. We have had dogs and/or cats always. We have also had goats, pot bellied pigs, chickens, miniature donkeys and fish. We love spending time with animals and attending to their needs. Walks at parks and in nature or around the neighborhood are a regular part of our day. We are retired and spend a lot of our time traveling in Southern California and Mexico. We provide a safe calm environment in your home and keep your pets' normal routines. We will be bringing our dog with us and she is well adjusted to changing environments and meeting new animal friends. Housesitting is part of our travel strategy and we have received many positive reviews over the past few years. I also have done some dog training and animals are comfortable around us. We are retired and take several walks a day. Our schedule is very flexible. We like to be able to take your dogs in the car for walking adventures if they are comfortable with that. We give your pets lots of snuggles. We aim to follow and maintain the normal, expected routines of the pets we care for. We give them lots of attention and send pics to their owners.

“Kristopher was truly a lifesaver. When my original sitter had to cancel unexpectedly, he stepped in without hesitation, and I honestly could not have asked for a better outcome. He was incredibly communicative throughout Izzy’s stay, sending regular updates and photos that gave me so much peace of mind. As a first-time dog mom, that level of care and transparency meant everything and made the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. Izzy came home happy and completely worn out, which tells me she had the best time. I would absolutely recommend Kristopher and will definitely be booking with him again!!”
“Jean has a great sense of compassion and understanding toward dogs and their owners. She kept us informed throughout the boarding and we had a wonderful experience. Look forward to utilizing Jean for future dog boarding.”
“We love Leslie! Leslie is very kind, responsible and trustworthy. Razor stayed with her a month ago and Leslie kept me well informed of how Razor was doing (and was very patient with my constant texts to check in on him 😊). Her house and yard are a perfect setup for the pups! Razor came home so content and comfortable (& tired!!) that I knew he loved Leslie and felt right at home. We booked with Leslie again for a second trip and when I brought Razor over, his tail was wagging so much and he ran right to her door to go inside! He didnt even look back to say bye! So thankful to have found someone as amazing as Leslie!!!”
“We were very concerned about leaving our 8 year old fur baby with someone we didn’t know and we couldn’t have been more happy with Kristopher and his wife. They are a sweet couple and obviously love animals. We were thrilled to receive daily photos of a happy puppy. We highly recommend Kristopher and will be using him again when we next need a sitter!”
“Amanda and her family were fantastic. We were confident to leave our dog and was able to enjoy our trip fully without worrying about our furry member of family. She sent me photos and updates daily. Thanks again!”
“Elizabeth and Sterling were fantastic. I booked last minute without much time for a meet and greet, and not only did they oblige and still meet same day, they made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with them. Their dog Lilo is such a sweetheart as well! They provided updates and exercise and I knew my pup was in good hands. Thank you so much for your great care! And I'm sorry again for the late plane arrival on my return!”
“What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.”
“Gary & Carol were able to watch our pup, Sterling last minute. They were both kind and Sterling seemed to enjoy his time there. He must've played hard with their adorable doodle as he napped most of the day at home after picking him up. Thank you Gary & Carol!”
“This was my first time using rover and I was a bit nervous leaving my dogs with someone that I didn’t know but Bobby and Linda made me feel very confident in their ability’s to take care of our dogs. They gave great updates with pictures and notes on what they did that day. I will recommend them to others and use them again in the future.”
“Our dog seemed to be very happy at Liz's house. Liz was very communicative with us and shared photos throughout our time away. We will definitely ask Liz to care for our dog again!”
“I would totally book again with bonnie she was so flexible with me! I felt so secure with leaving my baby here she never complained about anything my dog did like most other pet sitters I had before which really made me feel at peace!”
“We were a little hesitant to leave our Izzy, with a boarder, but he just walked right up to Diana like he had known her forever. We will definitely without a shadow of a doubt have her care for him in the future. Thank you Diana.”
“Dominique was awesome from the start. She was already communicating when I initiated boarding care. She took great care of my dog and was always sharing updates and pictures. Awesome experience!”
“Flawless. Leah and Chris did a phenomenal job making me and Gnocchi feel comfortable with the arrangement and she had a great time. She's very high energy and they gave her a lot of playtime and attention. And sent tons of pictures too!”
“Anastasia is a gem. She was warm, attentive and understanding of my Siberian Husky. She sent pictures and an update every day my doggo was in her care. Her dogs and child are friendly and accommodating. My dog had a great time! I highly recommend Anastasia.”
“We are sure that Bodhi got pampered by Ron and he sure did have some withdrawal symptoms. LOL. Bodhi would certainly love to stay with Ron again. Thank you so much Ron!”
“Veronica was great! Our dog Perla is 1 year old and very active and playful. She was kept busy with Veronicas two dogs for 12 days, which Perla seem to enjoy very much. Veronica is very knowledgeable about dogs and very patient. She kept us informed with pictures and videos. We will definitely use Veronica again.”
“Kyle did a great job and our dogs just loved him. They seemed like they had such a good time! He followed instructions and was careful with my anxious dog and my dog who is perpetually a runner and will slip out the door with anyone! Appreciate your hard work Kyle!”
