“Olivia did a fantastic job with our pugs. I am an anxious person and was feeling nervous about leaving my pugs for 10 days while out of the country. Olivia sent me multiple pictures and updates every day, morning and night. This helped me feel so secure in our choice of pet care. It seemed like our pugs truly had a great time and had lots of play and cuddle time. They also loved her puggies, Tuna and Oskar. When we dropped Tito off, his nose was looking dry and I asked Olivia if she could butter it while we were away. When we picked them up, Tito’s nose looked brand new! I would rebook Olivia for our next trip in a heartbeat! Thank you so much!”
“Yan is truly amazing! And so sweet!! Super communicative and sent lots of photos (and great videos showing him happily gobbling up his food) of our little guy! We felt so happy and was able to rest assured during our trip knowing that our pup was in caring and loving hands!”
“Maura & Shawn are a fantastic people. I can tell they put a lot of attention and care towards Maxine. Loved getting picture updates so that we knew she was healthy and happy. 10/10 will keep going back to them in the future.”
“Savannah and Gabriel are the absolute best! We have been using them well over a year for our pup Charlie and he absolutely adores them! My husband and I just had our first baby and don’t have family in ATX. These guys were able to watch him within hours notice of me going into labor, drove 35 minutes both ways to pick and drop him off and left flowers for me and baby. Thank you Savannah and Gabriel for the peace of mind, sweet gift and being there when we needed it the most! We can’t thank you enough.”
“I’m so happy we found Lisa to entrust with the care of my Zoe. Lisa communicated how she was doing during her stay which gave me piece of mind. I’ll be sure to have her watch Zoe again if we need someone to care for our little girl.”
“Malú took really good care of our fir baby. She sent lots of pictures and updates! We loved that her family seemed to love on her and treat her like part of the family!”
“We had a great experience. Aine was communicative, and sent daily photos/videos. She even provided a sweet card with photos of Suki during her stay when I picked her up. I know Suki was in great hands. I'd definitely use Aine and Jared again!”
“Alyssa is communicative and accommodating. And, importantly, my dog is always calm and happy when I pick her up, which I take to be a great sign of being well cared for. Would rebook!”
“Emma was incredible with our pup! She sent pictures daily and kept in constant communication. We left Remy with her for a week and never had to worry about him. We will be booking with again in the future :)”
“I think my dog found her home away from home! Drop off was easy and Paula took time to make sure my dog was comfortable before leaving. When I came for pick up, my dog had to give everyone a kiss goodbye! ? Such a loving pet family!”
“Marie went above and beyond to make sire our Old English Bulldogge was comfortable, well fed and happy ❤️ We received frequent updates and knew our dog Lady was happy camper!”
“Chuck took care of my older Yorkie for two weeks while I was away on vacation, and I couldn't be happier with the care he provided. He has a great track record, and it was clear that my dog was well looked after the entire time. When I picked him up, he was comfortable, relaxed, and happy, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. It's not always easy to leave an older dog in someone else's care, but Chuck did an excellent job. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Angie took great care of our Goldendoodle. She was great at communicating and sending us pictures. Our dog felt right at home. Happy to have found someone who can take such good care of our dog!”
“Alice and her family took such good care of my boys! She sent pictures everyday and they seemed really happy and taken care of. Will definitely hire her again if the need arises. Thanks Alice!”
“Anthony was fantastic. I was cancelled on twice by two other sitters from Rover. The last cancellation was on the day I needed to drop pups off. I was stressed and on the verge of panic as I was scheduled to fly out of country for a family trip. I immediately got on Rover and requested Anthony, he immediately responded and accepted. Not only was he super responsive, but his place is set up nicely for a doggie retreat. It is obvious Anthony has a lot of experience with dogs of all kinds and is excellent at his job. I will most definitely use Anthony again for future stays! Thank you Anthony!!!!”
“Caroline is an absolute gem and so is her pup brewster. He had a wonderful time at her home; walks, sunbathing, chasing squirrels, what more could a dog want? He’s not a lap dog but he was so comfortable with Caroline, he turned into one during his stay! She sent daily photos and videos which I appreciated because I missed him a ton. 10/10 will be booking Caroline again.”

About: I grew up since I was born with cats and now that unfortunately I don’t have anymore I miss them and have learned so much about them. They are my favorite animal with dogs a very close second!
“Carrie did a wonderful job giving our cat some love and attention while we were on vacation. She even helped reset our pet camera when it cut out. It gave me great comfort being away and seeing photos of them cuddling and him getting treats. I would highly recommend her services. Thank you for caring for Orangie!”
About: I’ve grown up around cats and currently live with four of my own, so caring for them has always been a big part of my everyday life! Over the years, I’ve been a caregiver for cats of all ages and backgrounds, and I’ve gained a lot of experience working with different personalities and needs. Some of the cats I’ve cared for have had medical conditions, disabilities, anxiety, or behavioral challenges, and I’m very comfortable adjusting my approach depending on the cat. I have experience giving both oral and injectable medications, basic behavioral training, and I’m familiar with routines that include ongoing health monitoring, and more involved care when needed. On a daily basis, I handle everything from feeding schedules and litter box care to helping cats feel comfortable, safe, and understood in their environment. I’m used to cats who are independent, shy, reactive, or very affectionate, and I take the time to let each one adjust at their own pace. My goal is always to meet cats where they are, whether that means giving them space, building trust slowly, or just making sure their routine stays consistent while you’re away. I also provide updates so you can feel confident about how they’re doing while in my care. Most of all, I aim to provide a calm and positive experience for both you and your cat, and enjoy helping out in any way that I can! [P.S. If your cat enjoys walking, I can also take those bookings through my Dog Walking services]
“Willow was fantastic! Both of my kitties immediately liked her and felt comfortable with her! That’s really all I can ask for but she also followed my feeding instructions to a T, and was very respectful of my space- even cleaned their food bowls for me before she left on her last visit! I will definitely be a repeat client 😄”
“I cannot say enough about Lauren and how great she is with our pets. We range from super friendly to shy and aggressive and she handled each with love and care and won everyone over. She took great care of them and cleaned up the occasional messes and left our house super clean. She cared for five dogs, three cats, and a duck across two houses and didn’t miss a beat. We will book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Bella was very responsive and professional throughout the whole experience. We couldn’t be happier with the care our cats received while we were away; I would recommend Bella and her equally awesome mom Mary Beth to anyone looking for a petsitter. Just good people.”
“Can’t thank Carla enough!!! She took such good care of our four cats while we were out of town. She sent updates each day and pictures for my daughter to enjoy, since she was missing her pets while out of town. Highly recommend Carla if you need someone to take care of your furry family!”
“Angelica did an amazing job taking care of my 3 cats when I was away from 5 days! She spent time hanging out with my kitties and took lots of great pictures. My cats are so comfortable with her on day 1. They became great friends on day 3 already. Angelica is also always very responsive to my messages. Definitely recommend her to take care of your pets, especially cats!”
“Lilyanna was amazing! Even though both of us had hectic weeks going into my time away from home she was communicative and she sent so many pictures of my girls. When I got home they were happy and relaxed and I could tell they had been well cared for. Thanks Lilyanna!”
“I highly recommend Lisa as a pet sitter!! She took great care of my cat and provided lots of updates and pictures. She also responded to messages very quickly and was a great communicator! Thanks again, Lisa!”
About: I haven’t had as much experience with cat sitting myself as I had with dog sitting, but I have fostered cats and helped my sister cat sit for her neighbor (basic feeding). I have a few cats myself so I can get accustomed to your little fluffball pretty quick!
About: always loved cats and have had plenty of experience caring for them! Growing up, I regularly looked after my neighbor’s cat whenever they were out of town, making sure they had plenty of attention, food, and care while their family was away. Throughout college, I lived with two cats of my own along with my dog, so I’m very comfortable caring for cats in a home with other pets. I understand that every cat has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to give them the attention, playtime, affection, or space they need to feel comfortable.
“Annie is a pro. I have two cats who are both rescues and because I work from home, they have gotten very attached. So when I decided to take a real vacation, I was worried about finding the right person to take care of them. Annie was the prefect fit. She sent pictures and updates and that helped eased my mind while I was away. And knowing that Rover.com stands behind their sitters also helped make me comfortable enough to leave them. This is my first time using Annie or this service, and I am so impressed! Thank you!”

“Olivia was a life saver! We’re out of town and had to visit the hospital so we had to figure out what to do with our dog! Olivia responded right away and we were at her house in less than 10 min dropping off our pup! She was very kind and we know our dog was well cared for while we were out. It was too easy! Thank you so so much Olivia!”
“Jade was able to accommodate me in my last minute request and also super early timing. Very grateful to have found her and 100 % recommend her. I have already booked future stay with Jade.”
“Luna was very happy when I dropped her at Emma’s and when my husband picked her up. Emma sent pics during the day and let me know that Luna was having fun and getting along with the other dogs who were there. We will definitely use Emma again!”
“Frances was fantastic! She kept us in the loop about how our beloved puppy was doing all day while in daycare. We appreciate the amount of activity she initiated, and the fact that her dogs made great friends to help calm our dog. Would definitely recommend!”
“We had a wonderful experience with our Yan! She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our pet was happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Emma was the perfect host! My dogs were well taken of through out their visit. Emma was very flexible with the timing and worked to accommodate our needs! My girls loved their walks and everything was first class! Emma is my Austin connection! Thanks, Emma! Lucy Lou and Lilly Bug Love you!💕🐶🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
About: Dog owner for 15 years, professional treat-giver, and expert belly-rub provider. I'm comfortable administering medications and have many years experience with puppies of all ages. I will care for your pup like they're part of my family. I work from home so it's very easy for me to take your pup on as many walks as needed. I also have a huge backyard for lots of games of fetch. I have a dog of my own, so doggie care is ingrained into my lifestyle. My backyard is fully fenced, and I have a crate available if requested. I’ll always follow your preferences and your dog’s individual needs to help them feel comfortable and at home. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and even the bed if that’s okay with you! My home is very small-dog friendly, as I have a dog and cats of my own. For everyone’s comfort and safety, your dog should be cat-friendly.
About: I have been pet sitting since age 12. I have experience with farm animals, fish, gerbils, reptiles, cats, and dogs. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I have taken care of senior dogs that need certain medications as well. I would love to help with any pet needs. I am focusing on online school, so I’m home most of the time. I will request a schedule or a planner from the pet parents that I follow. The planner will go over what time to feed, walk, and any other special instructions. I have a fenced in yard. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat to keep your fur baby company. 2 Shih Tzus, and 1 border collie. They are extremely friendly and never been an issue for any other pet family.
“Savannah and Gabriel are great with my puppy Peaches!! They are attentive to her needs and provide me with photos/updates during the day. She also comes home tired after playing with their doggie!! They’re the best!!”
“Absolutely recommend Daniel, My pet absolutely loves spending time with him and gets so excited every time he sees him. He is also incredibly knowledgeable about dog behavior and care, which gives me total peace of mind whenever I’m away. He is professional and very reliable. He also keeps me posted by sharing photos and videos!”
About: I’ve cared for 3 foster dogs and love volunteering with cats. I have become a professional pet spoiler and learned how to care for high-energy pups! I take self-paced online classes, so my schedule is flexible. This allows me to spend lots of time with pets, give them attention, play with them, and make sure they’re comfortable. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so your pet will have my full attention and care while they’re with me. I have a fenced yard where your pet can safely play and get some fresh air. I’ll be very attentive to them and make sure they're safe and entertained. I have lots of dog toys, lick pads to calm them and make them busy. I’ll make sure to follow your care instructions and update you with photos! I will give them lots of love, attention, and cuddles throughout their stay.
“Basil had an awesome time with playing Louie and friends! He got to play ball, go on a forest walk, and had a safe, active doggie daycare experience. We would definitely book again with Julie & Justin.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have always had a dog as part of my family. I currently have a senior dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets—especially when they’re family! I’ve been taking care of neighbors’ pets and watching our family dogs while they’re out of town since high school, which has given me years of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I absolutely love animals and would be so happy to provide your pet with the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I always take the time to get to know each pet individually so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, extra playtime, companionship, or just someone to check in and make sure they’re happy and comfortable, I’m here to help. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, responsible hands. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pup and become someone you can count on! 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time outside of the home in the mornings, and I work from home for the remainder of my workday. This gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to provide your pup with the attention and care they need, including walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I’m able to build pet care into my daily routine and will make sure your dog gets regular attention rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m happy to work with your pup’s usual routine and schedule to help them feel comfortable and at home while you’re away! I live in a comfortable home where your pup can feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, I’m happy to always take dogs outside on a leash for potty breaks and fresh air, or take them for a walk if they need some extra exercise and enrichment. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. I have plenty of space for a crate if your pup is crate-trained or prefers having their own familiar space. For drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, fresh water, potty breaks, and playtime or exercise based on their needs. I take safety seriously and will always keep your pet supervised and secure while in my care. My goal is to make your pup feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi, I’m Jasmin, and I’d love to be your trusted pet sitter! 🤎 I’ve loved animals my entire life and have cared for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to ferrets, guinea pigs and even pot-belly pigs. As a teenager, I volunteered at an animal shelter, and I also worked on an organic farm in Germany caring for farm animals. Animals are still a big part of my life today. I have a beloved dachshund, a cat we adopted from Mauritius, one guinea pig, and two hamsters. I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I’ve been on Rover for 3 years and have had the pleasure of caring for many wonderful pets and building relationships with returning pet parents.

About: Time and love! Recently retired with nothing but time and excitement to care for others’ beloved pets, especially because I don’t currently have any of my own. I have a large, fenced in backyard in the quiet hill country. There is a lovely trail for taking walks, and I love to take the pups for rides in the car! I’m experienced in administering and staying on top of medications and treatments. My daughter has two dogs that she sometimes brings for visits. So, if your dog is social, there is an opportunity for playtime with fellow furry friends. Caring for your pets would be my one and only priority. I spend the majority of time at home, and exercise is very important to me so I hope your dog loves to walk! Safety and affection are priority. Keeping a close eye on your pet and always making sure all needs are met is a guarantee when you put them in my care!
“Duncan quickly responded to our request and took great care of Gigi during a walk during crummy weather, even drying her and cleaning the mud from her feet afterward! He is a dog lover :) We are so grateful he was willing to walk her multiple times a week while we are busy.”
About: I have grown up around animals and currently care for four cats, so pet care has always been a big part of my daily life! Over the years, I’ve also helped neighbors with dog walking and pet sitting, and volunteered with animal shelters, which have given me hands-on experience with a wide range of animals and temperaments. I especially enjoy working with cats and have experience with all ages and backgrounds, including cats with specific medical or behavioral needs. I’m comfortable with administering oral and injectable medications, and I’m very attentive to routine, comfort, and stress levels, especially for anxious pets. In addition to cat care, I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. Currently, I am most familiar with Labs and Doodles, but have experience walking dogs of different sizes (including puppies!) and breeds through pet sitting and helping neighbors, and I’m confident handling structured walks and daily care routines. I currently work part-time and am in college, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide consistent communication and frequent updates while I’m with your pets! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely and prioritize their normal routine so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. At this time, I am not boarding dogs in my home. For cat boarding, however, I provide a calm, indoor-focused environment where safety and supervision are always the priority.
About: 3 dogs, diverse pet experiences, dog sitting since elementary school, volunteering at dog shelters, laid back and very excited to meet you and your pups! I’m currently a masters student ant Texas State University and have plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they need while you’re away! I have plenty of time to hang around your house and give your fur babies quality time and care as well as make sure no messes have been made by the pet
About: Hello everyone!, my name is Dominique and I have always had a dog in my life. My earliest memories consist of watching and helping my dog give birth and raise 10 puppies when I was 4 years old. Volunteering at the Austin Animal Center as a teenager was a natural step in my love for animals. I walked the small dogs outside for bathroom breaks and playtime while keeping puppies occupied when their crates were getting cleaned. I also walked the large dogs from their suites to the group play area and supervised multiple large dogs’ interactions. My friends have been trusting me to care for their animals and homes for 7 years now, and I have absolutely loved it! My experience ranges from small dogs to big dogs, puppies to seniors, and I have administered oral medication numerous times. The longest I have house sat was a week straight and the most animals I have cared for at a time is 4. I can’t wait to meet you and your babies❤️ I am currently working part time as a babysitter so I have a lot of availability for walks, feeds, hangouts, play, and cuddles! I am available seven days a week for feedings, walks, and daytime care starting at 10:30 am and into the night. For housesitting visits, I can come and stay at your house Friday night, Saturday night, and holidays for overnight care. First of all, I respect, follow, and complete all written or spoken directions on how to care for your pet and take care of your house. A typical sitting appointment for me is being there to provide food/water, frequent bathroom breaks, outside play, inside play (if given permission), a walk around the neighborhood (if requested), and a movie night with unlimited cuddles 🥰. I believe that it’s important to follow your pets’ cues so if they need extra attention, I am there to play or run around and if they need more space/alone time, I give them that time adjust. While we are having nap/down time, I will complete any household task asked of me which can consist of gathering the mail, putting out trash cans, watering the plants, etc. My favorite part of this experience is forming a bond with clients both human and dog so you can feel comfortable leaving your home in a trusted person’s hands!
“Carrie was absolutely wonderful! My dog is shy and she did well with making her feel comfortable. Carrie would send multiple pictures and gave her lots of love! She also realized we would be getting home late and she left a light on for my dog as well as us! How thoughtful!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’m passionate about providing dependable, loving care and treating every pet like the family member they are. From playful puppies and energetic adults to sweet seniors, I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. While I’ve primarily owned larger breeds, I also have experience caring for small breeds. My goal is simple: to give your pets the comfort, attention, and love they deserve while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I am a stay at home mom with a house full of animals too. I have a 1 year old Great Pyrenees Poodle mix and a 14 year old Shepard mix. I also have a ball python and leopard gecko as a part of our family pack! Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a stay-at-home mom. I’m available weekdays from 8:30 AM–2:30 PM, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care, walks, playtime, and companionship. I do have some evening availability with advance notice. I love incorporating animals into my day and making sure each pet receives the individual attention, care, and affection they deserve while their family is away. 🐾 I treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pets. I’m happy to tailor care to your pet’s individual needs, whether that means neighborhood walks, playtime, potty breaks in the yard, or simply providing companionship and attention.

About: I’ve had pets for over 40 yrs. That included Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Potbelly Pig. I’ve always been that person that will talk to every animal I see. I’ve had my own cat & dog for 23 years total. I have experience with behavioral issues & Medical. I recently lost my soul dog whom had lots of training for behavior quirks & also vitamins/meds for medical issues as well. Whether your companion is young or old, healthy or sick I guarantee I will take the best care of them. I have worked from home for years but am currently transitioning out of a career. Therefore I’m able to keep my availability very flexible & open. As a former Rover user, I know how hard it can be to find, trust, & like someone looking after your pet. Safety is #1, making sure directions are followed is key! I want them and you to be comfortable at all times.
“Very happy with Jade's service! She takes wonderful care of Luna, sends detailed updates, and pays close attention to details like fresh water and securing the home before leaving. Luna loves her and gets excited whenever I tell her Jade is coming.”
About: New to Rover but caring for pets and homes locally as if they were my own has been part of my life for years. I know how important it is to trust the person you’re leaving your pets with and I take that to heart. I’m patient, reliable, and pay close attention to the little things that keep pets happy and homes feeling cared for. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including playful puppies and gentle senior pets who may need extra time, medications, or a softer touch. I’m comfortable handling different routines, personalities, and special needs. Beyond pet care, I’m respectful of your home and keep everything tidy so you return to a space that feels just the way you left it—or a little better! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life because I work remotely from home. That means I’m around throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, meals, playtime, and plenty of companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, whether they need extra attention, medication, or just a reassuring presence. Having animals around just makes my days better, so it never feels like a job to me. When I’m staying in a client’s home, I keep pets on their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. That means regular meals, walks, playtime, and as many snuggles as they can stand:)
“Isabella and her mom were wonderful in communicating and supporting us and Houston in a last minute bind. Loved having them walk our baby and would absolutely recommend.”

I also have a pup of my own if you would like to schedule a play date!
About: Trusted, attentive caregiver raised around dogs and cats. Experienced in walking, feeding, and caring for pets while families were away. Prioritize comfort, routine, and safety. Pet care is a natural part of my routine, especially caring for cats. I plan my days to allow calm, consistent check-ins and attentive care. I care for pets in their own homes by following their routines closely, making sure the pet (and owner) feel safe and comfortable the whole time.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have always had a dog as part of my family. I currently have a senior dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets—especially when they’re family! I’ve been taking care of neighbors’ pets and watching our family dogs while they’re out of town since high school, which has given me years of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, personalities, and needs. I absolutely love animals and would be so happy to provide your pet with the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away. I always take the time to get to know each pet individually so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, extra playtime, companionship, or just someone to check in and make sure they’re happy and comfortable, I’m here to help. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, responsible hands. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your pup and become someone you can count on! 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time outside of the home in the mornings, and I work from home for the remainder of my workday. This gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to provide your pup with the attention and care they need, including walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I’m able to build pet care into my daily routine and will make sure your dog gets regular attention rather than being left alone for long periods. I’m happy to work with your pup’s usual routine and schedule to help them feel comfortable and at home while you’re away! I live in a comfortable home where your pup can feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. While we don’t have a fenced-in yard, I’m happy to always take dogs outside on a leash for potty breaks and fresh air, or take them for a walk if they need some extra exercise and enrichment. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. I have plenty of space for a crate if your pup is crate-trained or prefers having their own familiar space. For drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, fresh water, potty breaks, and playtime or exercise based on their needs. I take safety seriously and will always keep your pet supervised and secure while in my care. My goal is to make your pup feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

“Chuck took care of my older Yorkie for two weeks while I was away on vacation, and I couldn't be happier with the care he provided. He has a great track record, and it was clear that my dog was well looked after the entire time. When I picked him up, he was comfortable, relaxed, and happy, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. It's not always easy to leave an older dog in someone else's care, but Chuck did an excellent job. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”

“Anthony was fantastic. I was cancelled on twice by two other sitters from Rover. The last cancellation was on the day I needed to drop pups off. I was stressed and on the verge of panic as I was scheduled to fly out of country for a family trip. I immediately got on Rover and requested Anthony, he immediately responded and accepted. Not only was he super responsive, but his place is set up nicely for a doggie retreat. It is obvious Anthony has a lot of experience with dogs of all kinds and is excellent at his job. I will most definitely use Anthony again for future stays! Thank you Anthony!!!!”
“Lexi really enjoyed being there and I have nothing but good things to say about these two. I appreciate them coming through for me and keeping lexi happy in my absence!”
“My dog, Avery, really enjoyed her stay. She got lots of outside time to play and walk around exploring in the backyard. Iuliia has great communication and cares so much for the dogs she boards.”
“Caroline is an absolute gem and so is her pup brewster. He had a wonderful time at her home; walks, sunbathing, chasing squirrels, what more could a dog want? He’s not a lap dog but he was so comfortable with Caroline, he turned into one during his stay! She sent daily photos and videos which I appreciated because I missed him a ton. 10/10 will be booking Caroline again.”
