Highly-rated overnight sitters - Oakryn
“Working with Megan and Jacob was a pleasure! Cooper looked like he was having a wonderful time in all the pictures they sent. Dunkin’ and the other buddies were great companions while he was there, too.”
“This was our first time using the Rover app and meeting Megan and Vince. They are a wonderful couple who are dedicated to furry friends. They watched our two dogs, Harper and Elsie from Friday morning until Monday afternoon and they sent us lots of pictures and videos. I must say both dogs looked extremely happy and tired. I will definitely be contacting them again for future dates and will be sad if they're not available.”
“Have left our little boy Brady with them multiple times and its obvious he looks forward to his time with them. He always comes home tired from so much playtime. Can not recommend them enough. It's Brady's home away from home!”
“Alexandra was a great sitter for our pups Boone and George! She was incredibly communicative and shared lots of updates about how the boys were doing. She helped us last minute when we were traveling nearby and we are so grateful!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I don’t know how to explain this except: Jess is basically Dodger’s second family now. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re looking for the type of sitter who treats your dog like FAMILY…like actual family…Jess is the one. I honestly don’t think Dodger realized he was being “boarded.” He thought he was on vacation with his new cousins, new uncles, and his new favorite person on earth (Dan 😆). From the minute we dropped him off, Jess was so reassuring and kind. She sent constant updates, pictures, and little stories that made my heart feel so much better. And not just “here’s your dog existing” pictures…NO. We’re talking: *Dodger cuddling her husband like they’ve been best buds for 10 years *Dodger snuggled up with her youngest like they were watching Saturday morning cartoons *Dodger and Tanner acting like long-lost brothers reunited *Dodger eating, relaxing, wagging his tail like a helicopter blade *Dodger getting a whole spa bath after rolling in the yard mud 😭💀 He even chewed through a Kong, which honestly deserves its own award. I warned her he was a super chewer, but I don’t think ANYONE was ready for him to destroy the “indestructible” toy. She just laughed and sent pictures like, “Welp, he’s having the time of his life.” 😂 The whole time she made sure I felt comfortable…even when my baby stole my phone and I panicked thinking I missed messages 😅 She was patient, flexible, and genuinely cared about him AND about us. Dodger came home happy, clean, tired, and FULL of love. His tail literally didn’t stop wagging the entire stay. And I’m pretty sure he thinks Jess’s house is his second home now…which I’m honestly fine with, because I know he’s safe and adored there. Jess and her whole family are wonderful, warm people. They treated Dodger like he belonged with them, and that’s all a dog mom could ever want. We will definitely be booking again (unless Dan steals him permanently 😂). Thank you, Jess, for loving our boy so well. He misses you all already! ❤️🐾 P.s thank you for being so accommodating and helpful with his bath, I loved getting to pick him up early and snuggle him with us the moment he came home🥹💕”
“Outstanding dog sitter! My dog had a blast and Pamela C. was wonderful about documenting it through photos and sharing. Excellent communication and clearly a wonderful dog person. Highly recommend!”
“Karen took wonderful care of our precious baby, Bella. She sent us great pictures of her having fun with other pets. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again. Thanks again, Karen!!”
“So grateful for Megan and her family for keeping Remy at such short notice. They were great! She even took pics of our boy to give us peace of mind since it was his first time away (and staying with a cat)! Would definitely rebook with this lovely family. Thank you again!!🩵”
“Justin and Stephanie are absolutely amazing! We rebook with them every time we need to go out of town because we know our pup will be in great hands! They keep us updated with pics throughout the visit and we’re so flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to pickup our boy late at night! They’re truly the best, cannot recommend them enough!”
“Our girl Kelsea came back from Grace’s home a very Happy Girl !! Grace took wonderful care of our dog and allowed us to have a “good time” and not worry about our girl !! Grace even sent pics of Kelsea’s stay. We have already booked again with Grace ! Thank you Grace 😊🩵”
“This is my very first time using Rover to gin weekend did a wonderful job caring for my 2 year old cat Ninja over the weekend. Colleen’s home was clean and she’s seems to have alot of experience dealing with pets. My cat had never been around a dog before, and Colleen took the time to allow them to acquaint them and they just left each other alone, no fighting.”
“My puppy stayed with Sharon for 3 days and I’m so lucky to have found her. I live 40 minutes away but she’s worth it. Her dog, Belle, is such a sweetie. The place is clean and the backyard as well. My dog is a little bit mischievous but Sharon handled him very well and he was very happy there. I highly recommend Sharon for everyone who wants to board their dogs, she loves dogs and will go extra miles to take of your dog. You will have no worries leaving your dogs with her.”
“Smooch had a great time during her stay and was a very happy pup when she returned! I am especially thankful she had so much room to roam on your property. Thank you so much for loving her like we love her!”
“Gisel and her family took great care of my girl Kola. Kola had a case of severely itchy paws pop up the day before we were set to leave town. I was able to get some meds from the vet before we left. I let Gisel know what was going on with Kola, as she was licking and chewing her paws and they were very red. I kept socks on her paws and gave her Benadryl in between the meds from the vet. Gisel also kept this up for the four days Kola stayed with her family. I was so thankful and appreciative of the extra care Gisel and her family gave Kola. Kola’s itchy paws popped up so last minute and Gisel assured me she would take great care of her and she did just that! I would definitely use Gisel again for Kola!”
“Sherman loved his time with Jill and Chad and family!!! We could tell that he got so much attention and affection. Sherman can't wait for his summer vacation in July!”
“Tabby took wonderful care of my dog while I was out of state. She was flexible and accommodating with pickup and drop-off, making everything easy and convenient. My dog was comfortable, happy, and clearly well cared for during the stay. I appreciated the peace of mind knowing my pet was in good hands and would gladly book with Tabby again.”
“Fantastic people who took excellent care of my dog while I was away for work. They were very communicative and easy to work with. Also very accommodating when my work training schedule changed. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time I had a sitter watch my dog for an overnight stay. I was nervous but after communicating with Melanie and during the meet and greet I was put at ease. While Shiloh was staying with Melanie and her family I was completely comfortable. Melanie provided daily updates via txt, pictures, and videos and was extremely responsive to my questions/comments. I will definitely use Melanie again and highly recommend her.”
“My pups had a great time, made themselves at home and were well cared for. Loved receiving pics and seeing how well they were doing was comforting. Will definitely book again! Thank you”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”

“Mason was a phenomenal pet sitter. She was able to fulfill my need for a pet sitter during a holiday weekend, given less than 2 weeks notice. Mason gave prompt reports on my cat and even fed my aquarium fish and watered my indoor plants. She was patient with my feisty indoor cat, responding mindfully to my cat’s communication cues demanding space. I highly recommend Mason! 5/5 stars”
“Dylan is so awesome. He’s so good with our doggo learning what he likes and catering to his needs. Great communication and goes out of his way to make your pet happy and well cared for.”
“Lila was wonderful, thoughtful and gentle with Sparky. We came home and he was happy and we felt that he was well taken care of. The daily check ins were fun and we felt comfortable and relaxed that he was with a kind and compassionate person. Thank you again for all you did.”
“Marian is the best! She always sends the cutest pictures of our cats when she comes over for check-ins while we are away. They obviously love her and she has even managed to get our shy cat out of hiding which isn’t easy. Marian is also very easy to get in touch with and is very professional in every way. We highly recommend her services!”
About: I've been around cats my entire life and began fostering kittens in middle school, giving me experience with cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. As a veterinarian, I'm comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering medications, and caring for senior cats or those with medical conditions. Whether your cat is shy, playful, or needs a little extra patience, I'll provide compassionate, attentive care while keeping their routine as stress-free as possible.

“Elizabeth was extremely caring and responsible for our two cats during a month long trip during the winter (including bad weather). We would definitely recommend her for providing care for any fur family members.”
“Faith was an exceptional dog sitter who exceeded all expectations. She was punctual every day, ensuring that our pups received consistent care and attention. Faith dedicated 30 minutes each day to sit with the dogs while they did their business, showing her commitment to their well-being. Additionally, she captured lots of great pictures of the pups, which was a delightful bonus for us. Her reliability and thoughtful care made a significant difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive dog sitter.”
“Trish did a wonderful job with our pets and house sitting. This was our first experience with Rover and she did a nice job explaining the process. We have a very complicated set of cats and Trish handled them extremely well, including medications. During the trip Trish was communicated well send lots of updates and pictures which was reassuring. We really appreciated leaving them with someone who obviously cares as much for animals as we do.”
About: I’ve been around cats my whole life, so loving them just comes naturally to me. I adore their funny little personalities, the way each one is so different, and even their sassy moments. Spending time with cats honestly feels comforting and fun to me, and I always enjoy making them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for.
“Danielle was very understanding and flexible! She was willing to take my two rats and bunny and was super flexible with pricing and got it to be something that I could afford. She is very friendly and didn’t mind the unconventional request :) She also let them stay an additional night for free when plans changed.”
“Jessa was so patient with my dogs - as they required a lot of attention!! She was very responsive and I didn't have to worry about my pups while she was there! Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was a wonderful care giver to Maisy. She did everything I asked and even stayed to rub her belly so she felt calm. I highly recommend her and hope she’s available in the future.”

“Our terrier mix puppy has been going to Grace’s for a few weeks now (2x weekly for a full work day) and I can’t say enough good things! My husband and I found Grace because on the days my husband can’t come home during lunch, we didn’t want our puppy to be crated or left unattended all day. Grace and her family treat our puppy like their own dog, she becomes part of their family while she’s there. She gets tons of playtime, attention, affection. I absolutely love seeing the “report card” pictures after each day. It’s very clear my puppy is well cared for during her visits. It’s now to the point when we’re pulling up to Grace’s, our puppy gets excited because she knows where she’s at! 10/10 recommend!”
“We're new pet parents. We've had our 8 month old Goldendoodle, Boone, for close to 3 months. We needed to find reliable and loving care for our boy. Stacey was awesome. She arranged a meet and greet at her home and Boone was instantly at home, playing with her dogs and their toys. She's a very caring, loving person and her love for animals is evident. Boone thoroughly enjoyed himself and didn't even care when I left. I wasn't sure if he's would leave to come back home! We will definitely use Stacy again and highly recommend her for your fur babies. Oh she also sent us a picture of him and it appeared he was smiling.”
“I received updates throughout the day which I greatly appreciated. I was concerned about leaving bandit because she had a large dog bear and it was working when we pulled up to her house, but she assured me that he would be fine and he was she sent me pictures throughout the day with updates on how he was doing she showed me pictures of bandit with her children, and I like that. She also showed me pictures with bandit and a little Yorkie. I would definitely recommend her and would use her in the future. I ask if she was available on Monday because I also need a sitter for Monday, but she said she had too many dogs already booked”
“Beauty and her pack are wonderful! I can’t recommend Beauty enough to any pet owner! Our dog Freya had an amazing time and Beauty was very flexible when our plan changed to a later pick up time. She even offered to let Freya stay the night if that worked better for us. I can’t thank Beauty and the pack enough for giving us peace of mind when we can’t be with Freya!”
“We were very impressed with Geosselyn’s care of our dog! Her large fenced in backyard was perfect! Our dog seemed very comfortable with her! We highly recommend Geosselyn!”

I will also mainly schedule one dog at a time unless they are from the same family to make sure everyone is safe and happy.
“Zeus had a great day with D and all her animals. He doesn’t get to spend much time with new dogs so it was great for him. He came home very sleepy. D was very inviting and put us at ease while watching Zeus by sending pictures and updates.”

About: I grew up on a 25 acre cow farm. As a child I had every pet imaginable. As a mother I allowed my children to experience owning pets. My 2 youngest grown children have dogs and they are my grand dogs lol. We are a horse family. I have a degree in education and have been a teacher for ever. If I can be trusted with children then you can certainly trust me with you pets. I currently don’t have any pets due to where I live. The landlord is strict on the no pets policy. I know it’s a bummer 👎 All my children are grown so I have evenings and weekends free 👍 I know pets can be considered as a family member so I will take care of them as if they are my own children. I will provide plenty of extra love and kisses.

She’s very communicative and I can tell she takes great care of all the pets that are in her charge. I would highly recommend Kendall for your pet sitting/walking needs any time!”
About: and Sophie! Hi, I’m Sophie! I attended a vocational trade school where I studied Animal Science for three years. I gained hands-on experience caring for a variety of small and large animals, while learning proper handling and restraints, health and behavior, as well as how to safely administer oral and injectable medications. Through my training, I became certified in animal first aid and CPR. I also have experience caring for puppies/kittens, senior animals and pets with special needs, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and maintaining consistent routines. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and also worked at a kennel in high school, so I have spent years caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Because of that, I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I give the best care and attention that I possibly can. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing in the yard, relaxing on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, we are committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. We will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive, reliable care. We understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in the care of someone else, and our goal is to make that experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member! :) Hey! I’m Dylan and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a ton of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up on a farm and have always had multiple pets at a time, so I learned responsibility and animal care at a young age. I currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats of my own, and I love spending time with them—whether it’s going on runs with my dogs or cuddling up with my cats. I’m calm, patient, and always make sure animals feel safe and cared for. I treat every animal like they’re my own, with love and respect. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some playtime, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel loved and cared for while you’re away! I’m currently working a full-time job Monday through Thursday, from 6am until anywhere between 3pm and 5pm, depending on the day. I have Saturdays and Sundays off, and occasionally Fridays. Sophie works 2pm to 10pm a few days a week, her schedule is different every week. Since our schedules are opposite and Sophie has a bit more free time, one of us is always available to spend a good amount of time with your pet. The first thing we do when taking care of our own pets, or others pets, is let them out to go to the bathroom. Next, we prioritize feeding and medicating (if necessary) and cleaning and refilling all water bowls. Once everything important is taken care of, we then spend quality time with them, whether it’s playing fetch, cuddling or going for a walk. Before we leave, we make sure we let them back outside for a good while to make sure they take care of all of their business.

I treat every pet like family and provide loving care, playtime, walks, and updates while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and am able to dedicate time for walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and maintaining consistent routines. As a paraprofessional, I am organized, dependable, and attentive to individual needs, which helps me provide reliable care for both pets and homes. I prioritize making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure.

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs, I was the kid who wanted to meet every pet I came across, and that passion has only grown into adulthood. Along with having my own two dogs and cat, I've spent years caring for the pets of friends and family, treating each one as if they were my own. I also worked as a stablehand at a local farm, where I cared for a wide variety of animals—including cats, dogs, horses, donkeys, goats, cows, and even swans. I've also volunteered with dog walking programs in the city, giving me experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. As a pet owner myself, I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your beloved companion with someone new. That's why my goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention that I would want for my own pets. I believe communication, reliability, and attention to detail are incredibly important when caring for animals, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cozy couch cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Caring for animals has always been more than a job to me—it's something I truly enjoy, and I would love to help you! Pet care fits easily into my routine! I work a typical 9–5 during the week and have some flexibility for evening visits, but I primarily focus on pet care on weekends. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet and provide reliable, attentive care while you're away. I believe pets are happiest when they're able to stick to their normal routine, so I always do my best to follow each owner's instructions and provide care that's tailored to their pet's needs. Whether I'm stopping by for visits, going on walks, or caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I'll keep up with feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, medications if needed, and of course provide plenty of attention and updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: ⭐️ Meet and Greets with new clients ⭐️ DETAILED updates with photos/videos ⭐️ Extra Cuddles and Playtime ⭐️Seasoned in professional pet care Hi! I’m Savannah 🤍 your pet’s new favorite sitter (and probably their future bestie 🐾) I’m new to Rover, but I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being around them. At home, I have a sweet cat named Athena, and have always been raised around dogs so i definitely understand each one is different. I’m also a stay-at-home mama to my daughter—so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I don’t just “check in” on pets—I take the time to learn their personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I meet them where they are, giving them love, attention, and playtime so they feel happy and at ease while you’re away 🤍
About: I’ve been around animals all my life, & I can’t wait until I’m in a situation when I can finally have my own dog again. I’m knowledgeable about pet care & animal behavior, have great attention to detail, & enjoy learning more. I love every critter I meet (although I am partial towards chihuahuas & pits) & I have yet to meet a dog that didn’t like me. My family always had dogs growing up, & I have experience caring for a variety of dogs of different ages. I’ve only had two pet dogs that went through their entire life cycle with me, & my most recent doggo was a shitzu who came to me when she was 11. I spent her last few years trying to make her as comfortable & happy as possible. That’s the goal for every animal I care for. While this is obviously a job, & I do need the money, I genuinely enjoy getting to be helpful, to make someone’s life easier, & to, of course, spend time with dogs. I figure if I have to have a side hustle, it should at least be rewarding!! Thanks for reading!! I am a waitress- I usually work full-time, but it’s the slow season & we have a server surplus at the moment. I’m currently only scheduled for 3 night shifts a week, so my schedule is pretty open. Even on the days I do work, I would be able to check-in & care for the dogs before I go in, & can check on them afterwards as well if needed. Basically, I currently have plenty of time to fit in pet care. I am comfortable staying at someone else’s place; it would be nice to have a change of scenery every once in a while. Of course, I will treat your house with respect & be sure to leave it as it was when I arrived! If they wanna chill & sleep, that’s fine with me, but if they’re really active & need to play, I will play fetch & tug-o-war for hours on end. I have a car & supplies to take care of a dog if it is needed (snacks, poop bags, leash, blankets, first aid kit). I’m familiar with dog breeds & behavior & am aware of different training techniques so I’m not worried about being able to manage any dog- like getting them in their crate at the end of the night, or establishing a relationship with them, etc. I will care for your pet the way you want, but above all I will always care for an animal with the utmost respect & love, 💕
About: I don't have any pets myself, but I have lots of experience with them! I used to have chickens for several years, and I've also worked with horses as well. I gained a lot of experience working in a dog kennel, and became very comfortable with all different breeds and temperaments of both dogs and cats. I also have occasionally house sat for friends and family over the years and have taken care of several senior dogs. I love caring for animals and making sure they get the love and attention they deserve, so I can't wait to take care of your pet! Please be advised if your pet cannot be alone for more than just a few hours, I still work a full time job, so some days I might be working an 8 hour shift. My schedule changes week to week, so some days I might be able to stay with your pet the entire day but that will depend on my work schedule. Currently I am not able to care for any pets in my own home, but I very flexible and can care for your animals however you wish in your home.
About: I have an extensive history with all things animal related! I have had dogs, cats & horses my entire life. Over the years I have acquired chickens, a turkey, & Pygmy Goats! I used to be heavily involved with dog rescue so I am able to perform insulin shots & give medications as needed. I am currently a Stay at home mom, & work Part time so I will have plenty of time to take care of your animals on the farm, take dogs for walks, check on your kitties etc 😊 We live on 9.7 acres, working on putting up temporary fencing so that the dogs have areas to run & play in a fenced in area
About: Hi! My name is Julia, and I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I have owned both dogs and cats since I was a child, so caring for pets has always been a natural and important part of my life. I have several years of experience with dog sitting and house sitting, and I understand how important it is to know your pets and home are in caring, trustworthy hands. I love all pets and enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion nearby, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you are away. I am dependable, attentive, and respectful of each family’s home and pet care preferences. I would be happy to care for your furry family member and give them the same love and attention I would give my own pets! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I’m used to planning my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, check-ins, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I enjoy having pets as part of my routine, whether that means starting the day with a walk, stopping by for a midday visit, or spending quiet time with a cat who just wants company nearby. I’m dependable and flexible, and I understand that pets do best when their normal schedule is followed as closely as possible. I’m happy to adjust my routine to match each pet’s needs, whether they need extra attention, medication reminders, playtime, or just someone calm and caring to keep them company while their family is away. I care for pets with patience, respect, and attention to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications or special needs, favorite toys, and any house rules. I know pets feel safest when things stay familiar, so I do my best to keep their routine calm and consistent while their family is away. I also treat every home with care and respect. I make sure doors are locked, food and water are refreshed, litter boxes or pet areas are kept clean, and pets are safe before I leave. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, comfort level, and personality, whether they are playful, shy, energetic, independent, or need a little extra reassurance. My goal is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and for owners to feel confident knowing their pets and home are in trustworthy hands.

“Working with Megan and Jacob was a pleasure! Cooper looked like he was having a wonderful time in all the pictures they sent. Dunkin’ and the other buddies were great companions while he was there, too.”
“This was our first time using the Rover app and meeting Megan and Vince. They are a wonderful couple who are dedicated to furry friends. They watched our two dogs, Harper and Elsie from Friday morning until Monday afternoon and they sent us lots of pictures and videos. I must say both dogs looked extremely happy and tired. I will definitely be contacting them again for future dates and will be sad if they're not available.”
“Have left our little boy Brady with them multiple times and its obvious he looks forward to his time with them. He always comes home tired from so much playtime. Can not recommend them enough. It's Brady's home away from home!”
“Alexandra was a great sitter for our pups Boone and George! She was incredibly communicative and shared lots of updates about how the boys were doing. She helped us last minute when we were traveling nearby and we are so grateful!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I don’t know how to explain this except: Jess is basically Dodger’s second family now. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re looking for the type of sitter who treats your dog like FAMILY…like actual family…Jess is the one. I honestly don’t think Dodger realized he was being “boarded.” He thought he was on vacation with his new cousins, new uncles, and his new favorite person on earth (Dan 😆). From the minute we dropped him off, Jess was so reassuring and kind. She sent constant updates, pictures, and little stories that made my heart feel so much better. And not just “here’s your dog existing” pictures…NO. We’re talking: *Dodger cuddling her husband like they’ve been best buds for 10 years *Dodger snuggled up with her youngest like they were watching Saturday morning cartoons *Dodger and Tanner acting like long-lost brothers reunited *Dodger eating, relaxing, wagging his tail like a helicopter blade *Dodger getting a whole spa bath after rolling in the yard mud 😭💀 He even chewed through a Kong, which honestly deserves its own award. I warned her he was a super chewer, but I don’t think ANYONE was ready for him to destroy the “indestructible” toy. She just laughed and sent pictures like, “Welp, he’s having the time of his life.” 😂 The whole time she made sure I felt comfortable…even when my baby stole my phone and I panicked thinking I missed messages 😅 She was patient, flexible, and genuinely cared about him AND about us. Dodger came home happy, clean, tired, and FULL of love. His tail literally didn’t stop wagging the entire stay. And I’m pretty sure he thinks Jess’s house is his second home now…which I’m honestly fine with, because I know he’s safe and adored there. Jess and her whole family are wonderful, warm people. They treated Dodger like he belonged with them, and that’s all a dog mom could ever want. We will definitely be booking again (unless Dan steals him permanently 😂). Thank you, Jess, for loving our boy so well. He misses you all already! ❤️🐾 P.s thank you for being so accommodating and helpful with his bath, I loved getting to pick him up early and snuggle him with us the moment he came home🥹💕”
“Outstanding dog sitter! My dog had a blast and Pamela C. was wonderful about documenting it through photos and sharing. Excellent communication and clearly a wonderful dog person. Highly recommend!”
“Karen took wonderful care of our precious baby, Bella. She sent us great pictures of her having fun with other pets. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again. Thanks again, Karen!!”
“So grateful for Megan and her family for keeping Remy at such short notice. They were great! She even took pics of our boy to give us peace of mind since it was his first time away (and staying with a cat)! Would definitely rebook with this lovely family. Thank you again!!🩵”
“Justin and Stephanie are absolutely amazing! We rebook with them every time we need to go out of town because we know our pup will be in great hands! They keep us updated with pics throughout the visit and we’re so flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to pickup our boy late at night! They’re truly the best, cannot recommend them enough!”
“This is my very first time using Rover to gin weekend did a wonderful job caring for my 2 year old cat Ninja over the weekend. Colleen’s home was clean and she’s seems to have alot of experience dealing with pets. My cat had never been around a dog before, and Colleen took the time to allow them to acquaint them and they just left each other alone, no fighting.”
“My puppy stayed with Sharon for 3 days and I’m so lucky to have found her. I live 40 minutes away but she’s worth it. Her dog, Belle, is such a sweetie. The place is clean and the backyard as well. My dog is a little bit mischievous but Sharon handled him very well and he was very happy there. I highly recommend Sharon for everyone who wants to board their dogs, she loves dogs and will go extra miles to take of your dog. You will have no worries leaving your dogs with her.”
“Smooch had a great time during her stay and was a very happy pup when she returned! I am especially thankful she had so much room to roam on your property. Thank you so much for loving her like we love her!”
“Sherman loved his time with Jill and Chad and family!!! We could tell that he got so much attention and affection. Sherman can't wait for his summer vacation in July!”
“Tabby took wonderful care of my dog while I was out of state. She was flexible and accommodating with pickup and drop-off, making everything easy and convenient. My dog was comfortable, happy, and clearly well cared for during the stay. I appreciated the peace of mind knowing my pet was in good hands and would gladly book with Tabby again.”
“Fantastic people who took excellent care of my dog while I was away for work. They were very communicative and easy to work with. Also very accommodating when my work training schedule changed. Highly recommend!”
“This was the first time I had a sitter watch my dog for an overnight stay. I was nervous but after communicating with Melanie and during the meet and greet I was put at ease. While Shiloh was staying with Melanie and her family I was completely comfortable. Melanie provided daily updates via txt, pictures, and videos and was extremely responsive to my questions/comments. I will definitely use Melanie again and highly recommend her.”
“My pups had a great time, made themselves at home and were well cared for. Loved receiving pics and seeing how well they were doing was comforting. Will definitely book again! Thank you”
“Sandra is an excellent sitter! Our dog Chico was very happy to be with her! Definitely we will go back to her as needed and certainly highly recommend Sandra as a pet sitter!”
“The level of detail and care that Patrick & Bahiya is above my expectations. This is the second time boarding my dog with them due to their trust and professionalism.”
