“Amanda was incredible with my baby! This was my first time being away from him for more than 12 hours and I was really worried. Amanda kept me updated through the entire trip with updates and photos and ensured me he was doing great! I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter and will be using her in the future!! She was amazing and sweet.”
“We had a fantastic experience with this pet-sitting service. The couple who watched our pets for two nights went above and beyond to ensure they were well cared for and happy. We received regular updates and lots of photos, which helped us feel at ease while we were away. It's clear they gave our pets excellent attention and we could tell they were in good hands. The entire process was smooth and we will definitely be using their services again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Ashley came thru in a crunch and was more than I could have asked for. She was able to schedule a meet and greet for reassurance and thankfully, my pup got along with her sweet babies. She kept me updated on the daily and made pick up easy peasy. I am so grateful that she was my first Rover experience. She set some pretty high expectations. I 1,000% would recommend her to anyone who is needing the service. Thanks again, Ashley!”
“Isabella was simply AMAZING!!!!! A true gem from start to finish. She came to our home to meet both of our girls, one of them a 17 year old senior. She answered all of my questions and really took her time to get to know the dogs. We boarded with her for over 3 weeks while being out of country and she kept me up to date on how the girls were doing and sent pictures. The services provided by her were amazing and I have asked her to be our permanent sitter when we cannot take the girls. I know taking care of a senior dog is a whole other ballpark than a young(er) dog but both girls looked happy and healthy in all pics and when we returned. I would leave the girls with Isabella in a heart beat again! Thank you again for taking such good care of them!!!! I would also like to mention that she doesn’t run a “boarding factory” like some of the star sitters on here whom I had contacted when searching for a good match for our needs. It shows that she cares about the animal and not how many dogs she can cramp in her house to make the most money.”
“Shane was very patient with our three divas. They didn't want to eat, peed in his house, tore of a dog bed, and didn't want to take their pills. He kept in communication with us, sent pictures, and put up with them. Couldn't ask for more.”
“Andrew is an excellent pet sitter. He keeps me updated throughout the day with videos and pictures. I also like that he only accepts one booking at a time so I didn't have to worry about my boys not getting along with other cats. Will book again!”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“Kristina and her household were an incredible extended family for our dog, Bailey! She was kind, informative, affectionate, and kept us up to date with plenty of pics, videos and messages every day. As we left Kristina’s house, Bailey was genuinely sad to leave, and I get the sense that she can’t wait for next time! Highly recommend Kristina as a crucial part of anyone’s dog care family!”
“Heather was amazing! We have used Rover many times and our experience with Heather far surpassed the others. She sent a lot of pictures, walked our dogs, her kiddos cuddled and gave a lot of attention to our animals. I highly recommend booking with Heather. We for sure will be using her in the future.”
“Kelly and her family took great care of my dog Johnny while I was gone on an extended vacation! Kelly regularly sent updates and pictures of their activities and how he was doing and took great care of Johnny. Highly recommended and will definitely use Kelly’s services again!”
“Lynn and family loved on my out of practice/un-social girl and she came home actually wanting more interaction with more pups! We’re a fan and she’ll be a regular to come and enjoy some time away from home and have some interaction with other pups and humans to enjoy her need for socialization. Thank you for letting her warm up to the thought of being part of another pack for the week!”
“Jeff was great with Milo! He sent us updates and pictures and genuinely seemed so excited to have Milo at his house. It made us feel at ease that Milo was in a safe and loving environment. We will definitely be booking with Jeff again when we need someone to watch Milo.”
“Bekah was exceptional. She sent photos, updates and walked Pepper daily. She made our time away very enjoyable knowing our pet was enjoying his time away. This was our first time utilizing this service but it won't be the last.”
“Het & Mukshutaben took good care of Tochi. They were flexible with pick up and drop off times. They even sent photo updates of what she was up to which was nice.”
“Radha & Bart did an exceptionally good job in caring for Versace! They provided frequent updates as well as video's of their interactions with Versace. I will definitely consider them first when we need care for our dog next time.”
“Sherron was so sweet with our dog and very kind and accommodating. I can tell Skipper was well taken care of and happy in Sherron’s care. We will definitely book with her again!”
“She took really good care of my baby Kobe he loves going she provided me with videos and pictures of him and she text and stay in communication with me the whole time he was there I would definitely use her again”

“Josh has been the trusted caretaker for our cats and dogs for over a year and he has always been bery reliable, communicative, and makes us more at ease when leaving the furbabies at home.”
“As always, Ayden, has been a superb sitter for our cat and a new kitten! They both loved him! Ayden always accounted for their eating habits. He always changed his waters, and cleaned their litter boxes. He always inquired and clarified if there were any questions. We appreciated how easy it is to communicate with Ayden. We hope he continues to sit our pets!!!”

“Just left my five month kitten, and his 14 year old brother ,for the first time. Lilianais took really good care of them and my plants. She is definitely a cat lover! I got my updates as planned and she answered all my questions. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
About: Since I was a young girl, I have always been fascinated by animals—particularly dogs. I begged my parents to get me my first pet—Jasper, a rescued Labrador retriever—at age 7. Taking care of Jasper was my main focus as well the odd assortment of fish and hamsters we had. When Jasper passed, and I graduated high school, my next door neighbor had a litter of golden retriever puppies. I was ready to have another animal, and that’s when Kensie came into my life. Kensie was my soul dog, and she passed away two years ago. We did everything together—going to dog parks around town, Zilker park, and even red bud (before the algae), and going to dog-friendly establishments in Austin. She was my best friend. Unfortunately, her last few months on earth were extremely challenging. I was up with her three to four times a night (sometimes more), administering multiple medications, and helping her stand/walk. When the time came to say goodbye, I could barely make the decision to let her go. I miss her so much, but because of my current living situation, don’t have the opportunity to get another dog. That’s where Rover comes in. I love animals, and am extremely responsible when it comes to taking care of someone’s pet. This will give me my ‘fix’ and also be a productive side hustle for me. It will be an honor to walk//watch your pet. I will give the very care and concern I gave my own pets. Not only have I had my own pets, but I have experience with a variety of breeds—including catahoulas and boxers. As mentioned above, I have extensive experience working with senior dogs and administering medication. I’m currently in a transition phase in my life, and am looking for something productive and rewarding. I have pretty much limitless availability to cater to whatever your dog may need. At the moment, I can’t accept any dogs into my home, but if given the opportunity to stay at a client’s house, I would follow all instructions given while simultaneously respecting the space and showering your dog with love and attention.

I show that im gentle and very loving with animals by making sure they have plenty of water, food, toys, walks, etc… i can show i care in many ways.
About: Since I was a little girl I have had and taken care of both indoor and outdoor cats. I have taken care of cats with special needs and of all breeds and sizes and do not discriminate as I love them all!

About: Give your dog a vacation! :) Your dog won't have any lack of attention in a home of two dog-lovers and an adorable little mutt named Tiger! We both work from home so we’re able to give attention throughout the day. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and being from the country, we'd usually have six or seven in our family at a time. Tiger loves all dogs, big or small - he's a real dog's dog. Whatever your dog's temperament may be - whether chilling on the couch, or going for a walk or run, we will be happy to accommodate. We only board small and medium sized dogs, up to 40 pounds. If your dog is larger, we are open to house sitting at your residence. Your dog will have lots of room to play and relax in our two bedroom, dog-proofed home. We are lucky to have a fenced in back yard and to live in such a walkable neighborhood (less than half a mile from town square). Since we work from home, I'm able to do multiple walks (or jogs, if you are so inclined) a day. I will also send you updates and photos so you can relax and rest assured that your canine friend is in good hands. Let me know if your dog prefers to be crated at night or sleep with us. We also have several plush dog beds throughout the house, but feel free to bring any bedding or toys that will remind them of home.

About: I have experience caring for dogs for friends and family, including walks, feeding, and playtime. As a mom, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and nurturing, I treat every dog like part of my own family. I keep you updated, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your pet gets the best care every time. As a full-time student and stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule and enjoy getting outside. I’d love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs and cats I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away.
“Noodles had so much fun playing at Josh’s house! Communication was great and I always felt super comfortable. Loved getting the report card of how she did with lots more pics!”
About: We have raised 3 different dogs together. Two of those furr babies required medical care and special diets, so we are always very attentive and careful with all pets needs! We recently lost our precious boy River, due to his liver disease and we miss his presence tremendously. So having other pets over truly helps keep us going and having a boost of morale. With that being said, we will give your pet 100% of our attention at all times. You can trust your pet will be supervised and cared for all day. At least one of us is always home to supervise when we are dog sitting so your pet is never alone. We have a small dog park at our complex for some outdoor fun time, and can provide daily walks as well to ensure they get more exercise! We have made our home safe for your dog keeping certain things out of reach. I can update you regularly with picture updates as well!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for quite a while! It started with trick training which turned into completely 6 months at a dog training school and earning a certificate in canine training and behavioral specialist. I am confident in handling and caring for the most difficult pups! From nervous and anxious dogs to high energy working dogs, I am willing to create a safe and effective boarding/care experience for them. My whole life revolves around my dogs so your pups will be loved and cared for during their stay. I have a schedule that allows me to fit any pet care needs. My dogs get tons of outside times, walks, and potty breaks throughout the day so whatever plan your pup needs we can accommodate! I am flexible on creating a system that works best for you pets. I can house dogs that are not good in crates and well as dogs that need to be crated. I have pet cameras throughout the home so I can keep watch at all times! We can come up with a system that works best for you pets! Whether that be multiple walks per day or a special feeding plan!
About: I’ve loved and cared for pets my entire life! Growing up, we always had multiple dogs in our home. We had a big family with our fur babies! Your fur babe will be in amazing hands with me 🫶 I’m currently at home full time and ready to watch your babies anytime you need. I’m flexible and adjustable to your needs! Im the person who will stop and ask to pet your dog. 😄 I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for the fur babes to run around. I have a boxer who loves to play with other dogs and will keep your fur baby burning lots of energy.
About: As a kid I was taught responsibility by caring for our horses, cats, dogs, birds, fish and guinea pigs. I’ve had pets all my life! My mom’s cat almost died of a bacterial infection in her mouth and I’ve helped administer antibiotics to her until she got better. I had a cat who had kidney disease and needed to have IV fluids every week. My other cat had to be mouth fed with a syringe as well as monitored via thermometer up his butt. I have house and pet sit for friends and family that have multiple pets, most recently for a friend that had 6 dogs of all sizes! I am an active individual so walking will be a treat for them and me! :) I have given dogs and cats baths and also cared for dogs in heat. I have a very open and wide range of availability and I am available most days, including weekends and holidays as I rarely ever go out of town. It would be great to develop some long term relationships with new pets and their owners! Repeats are always great but not expected. I will do what I can to work with your schedule and the needs of you and your fur child. I will do my best to maintain consistency and high-level care when it comes to your pet. Each pet is different and I try to get to know each one individually in order to gain their trust and yours and provide the best care possible. Often times, I will send pictures to the pet owner, especially if it is a new client or a pet owner is out of town for an extended amount of time. I am easily reachable and try to communicate clearly about wants, needs, and scheduling. I prefer to do a meet and greet prior to providing a service, but it is not mandatory, especially for last minute bookings! We have a small yard in front and neighbors that will walk their dogs but they are all on leashes and well behaved. We live in a newer and safe community and I often take my dog for a walk around the neighborhood. There is a small park down the street which is nice too. We also have a fenced in backyard which can be seen from the inside of the house or the porch. We live in a one story house, but there are steps from the porch to the yard outback. My husband lives with me and has also grown up with cats and dogs. We currently have one male cat Santiago who gets along great with our male Chihuahua Juan Pablo and also got along great with my former senior Maine coon cat. He is a bit weary of strangers at first, but he will just hide until he gets to know you a bit and then you won’t be able to get him off of your lap. We have a gate in between the kitchen and the rest of the house so that the Chihuahua can have free rain to walk around and not have to be in his cage when we are not home. In the event that we have another animal in the house we can keep the Chihuahua in his cage. We also have two bedrooms and two baths that can be used to separate animals.The Chihuahua is very friendly and gets along great with the cat. He is also a bit skittish at first with strangers but once he gets to know you all he wants to do is give you kisses. He is very non-aggressive and barely ever barks. He is also very friendly. I feed my cat both wet and dry food twice a day in his food dish and he has water out constantly. I feed the dog twice a day, sometimes dry food, and sometimes refrigerated dog food. I let the dog out several times a day and we go for a daily walk as well. I clean the kitty litter box once a day. I snuggle and cuddle with both of them as much as possible, and play fetch with the dog at various points throughout the day.
About: I've been a dog mom to multiple pups over the years. Plenty of time spoiling them and taking them out on adventures. Sadie and I love hiking and kayaking, or just strolling through the neighborhood. I currently work from home and make my own schedule, so I can easily adjust it to your needs. This leaves plenty of room to hang with my sweet dog and hopefully yours as well. I have a fenced yard and a sweet shorkie that would love play time with your sweet dog. I can keep them separated or allow them to play depending on your comfort level.
“Candi is absolutely amazing and Buck loves going there!! She has also been able to accommodate my last minute daycare drop offs which have saved us a couple times now!! I am completely confident when I drop Buck off that he is not only in great care but that he also is having an absolute blast.”
“They were very flexible to watch our dog on a Sunday and flexible with tie time. They made our dog feel comfortable with them and followed instructions on feeding and potty breaks. We would use them again when in town.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t live without them. My specialty is caring for senior (7+yrs old) dogs but I love all ages. I’m currently retired and very flexible with scheduling. I have volunteered regularly at a senior dog sanctuary for 4 years to onboard and train new volunteers. I have a fenced yard and only one small dog friendly Yorkie in residence. I used to work for a Christian ministry so very trustworthy.
About: I have plenty of experience caring for and walking dogs. I've been a dog owner my entire life and I volunteer at the local animal shelter once a week, which has given me lots of hands-on time with different breeds and sizes of dogs. I'm currently a college student at Hutson tiltson university in Austin, Texas who does online and is available mostly every day and can do any service !. I would Be patient and calm with pets that are withdrawn or scared. Pets are sensitive to change and may be missing their people; maintain their schedule as much as possible. When the pet are feeling comfortable, send pictures to the client, letting them know you're giving them extra attention.
“I’ve been using this family for over a year now. Can’t begin to explain how amazing they are. My Marley girl is my whole world, and I can’t imagine trusting anyone as much as I trust them. Ren has been nothing short of incredible. She treats my baby like she’s part of the family and not only cares for her but actually loves her. She’s patient, kind, communicative, professional and friendly. Marley knows when she’s going to see her and just completely lights up. I never have to worry about anything when she’s with them. I’m completely at ease for a day, or for long term stays. Can’t express my appreciation enough for all of them. Will continue to book and refer forever! Thank y’all! 🩷🩷”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have experience with medications and other special needs your pet may have. I love loving on dogs and love to enrich their time with bubbles or other activities like sniff and seek. The dogs will hang out with me, go on walks twice daily walks, play bubbles or play fetch, or swim if your dog is interested! We also love naps in our house and overall have a great time. I have a dog park and walking trail at my apartment. I have a dog wash and would be happy to bathe your dog before their return. I have a 4 year old golden retriever who is well-socialized and loves to make new friends. I also make homemade dog treats :)

Making them happy is what i love). Please verify drop off and pick up times. Times scheduled are so so important for our scheduling, other drop offs, pick ups, dr appointments, etc. Traveling can me unpredictable, so unpredictable changes are understandable, as long as it is communicated. 😊😊 I have a fenced in yard for your baby(ies) to play and to use to restroom without restrictions. Your baby's food schedule is baised on what you need it to be. My job is to spoil your baby and that's my focus. We give cuddles, treats and love.
About: Lifelong dog owner with a decade of dog sitting and fostering experience, providing loving, reliable care while treating every pup like family in a safe, comfortable home. While you’re away, my dogs and I will make your pup feel comfortable with lots of love and play! I started out watching family members’ dogs as a teenager, then gradually began caring for my husband’s coworkers’ pups and others as word spread. Along the way, I realized how much I genuinely enjoy seeing new dogs interact with mine and how happy they are having friends around. It’s something I look forward to, and I am so excited to do it more often. My own pet’s care is part of my everyday life. I’m home all day with my own dogs, so your pup will always have company, attention, and lots of love. Caring for them is my full time job, which means I have all the time in the world to focus on making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, plus two friendly dogs who love having new companions around. I keep a close eye on all pups during playtime to make sure everyone is comfortable and getting along. I stick to your dog’s usual routine for feeding, potty breaks, and rest, and I’m happy to crate them if that’s part of their normal schedule. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, relaxed, and right at home the entire time they’re with me.

We live in a newer and safe community and I often take my dog for a walk around the neighborhood. There is a small park down the street which is nice too. We also have a fenced in backyard which can be seen from the inside of the house or the porch. We live in a one story house, but there are steps from the porch to the yard outback. My husband lives with me and has also grown up with cats and dogs. We currently have one male cat Santiago who gets along great with our male Chihuahua Juan Pablo and also got along great with my former senior Maine coon cat. He is a bit weary of strangers at first, but he will just hide until he gets to know you a bit and then you won’t be able to get him off of your lap. We have a gate in between the kitchen and the rest of the house so that the Chihuahua can have free rain to walk around and not have to be in his cage when we are not home. In the event that we have another animal in the house we can keep the Chihuahua in his cage. We also have two bedrooms and two baths that can be used to separate animals.The Chihuahua is very friendly and gets along great with the cat. He is also a bit skittish at first with strangers but once he gets to know you all he wants to do is give you kisses. He is very non-aggressive and barely ever barks. He is also very friendly. I feed my cat both wet and dry food twice a day in his food dish and he has water out constantly. I feed the dog twice a day, sometimes dry food, and sometimes refrigerated dog food. I let the dog out several times a day and we go for a daily walk as well. I clean the kitty litter box once a day. I snuggle and cuddle with both of them as much as possible, and play fetch with the dog at various points throughout the day.

About: With 5 years of experience as a veterinary technician, I have a deep understanding of animal care, from cats and dogs to exotic species. I’ve worked with pets of all temperaments—whether they’re energetic and playful or more reserved—and I’m comfortable providing care for animals with special needs or medical conditions. In addition to my veterinary experience, I’ve had the privilege of pet sitting for clients who visit our veterinary hospital, which has given me the opportunity to care for a variety of fur babies in their own homes. I also have experience with exotic animals, having worked at a botanical garden where I cared for a wide range of species. From reptiles to birds and small mammals, I’m familiar with the unique needs and care requirements of different types of animals. Whether you have a cat, dog, or exotic pet, I am fully prepared to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets while you’re away. I have my own fur babies, so I truly understand the trust and love that goes into finding someone to care for your pets. Whether your pets need medications, extra attention, or just a familiar face to keep them company, I’m here to ensure they’re in the best hands possible. I offer flexible and open availability for all your pet sitting needs! Whether you need someone for a few hours, overnight stays, or extended care, I am happy to accommodate. As a pet lover with a background in veterinary medicine, I prioritize the well-being of your pets and can be available on short notice. My schedule is open to fit your needs, so feel free to reach out for any day or time that works best for you and your fur babies! When caring for your pet in their own home, my top priority is ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that leaving your pet can be stressful, which is why I strive to create a calm and familiar environment for them. With my experience as a veterinary technician, I am equipped to handle all aspects of pet care, from following specific routines to administering medications if needed. I believe that safety and trust are the foundation of great pet care. I’ll make sure your pet is always secure in their surroundings, keeping doors and gates closed, providing supervision during outdoor time, and ensuring they are never left alone in unsafe situations. I also make sure to follow any special instructions you provide to ensure your pet’s routine is maintained while you’re away, from feeding times to favorite toys or special cuddles. I treat your home as I would my own, respecting your space and keeping everything neat and tidy. I also offer updates and check-ins to keep you informed and help ease your mind while you’re away. With my experience and genuine love for animals, you can trust that your pet is in the best hands, enjoying their time at home while you’re gone.
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats my entire life. I have taken care of dogs for a while as well. I am very reliable and love to see animals happy, so I try to give them the best experience possible. I currently work part time at a doggy daycare, I am available for drop in’s in the morning and afternoon. Otherwise I’m fully available in the afternoons. I have plenty of time on my hands to make sure your pet has a great time! I have a spacious house with a big backyard for your pup to run and play. I have a 4 year old pitbull who loves meeting new friends and zooming around!
About: Give your dog a vacation! :) Your dog won't have any lack of attention in a home of two dog-lovers and an adorable little mutt named Tiger! We both work from home so we’re able to give attention throughout the day. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, and being from the country, we'd usually have six or seven in our family at a time. Tiger loves all dogs, big or small - he's a real dog's dog. Whatever your dog's temperament may be - whether chilling on the couch, or going for a walk or run, we will be happy to accommodate. We only board small and medium sized dogs, up to 40 pounds. If your dog is larger, we are open to house sitting at your residence. Your dog will have lots of room to play and relax in our two bedroom, dog-proofed home. We are lucky to have a fenced in back yard and to live in such a walkable neighborhood (less than half a mile from town square). Since we work from home, I'm able to do multiple walks (or jogs, if you are so inclined) a day. I will also send you updates and photos so you can relax and rest assured that your canine friend is in good hands. Let me know if your dog prefers to be crated at night or sleep with us. We also have several plush dog beds throughout the house, but feel free to bring any bedding or toys that will remind them of home.
About: I’m a total dog person and love getting to know each pup’s unique personality! I treat every dog like they’re part of the fam- lots of love, play time, and making sure ur fu-babies are comfy while you’re away! I am a very chill person who is easy to communicate with, and I always try to stick to a routine that feels normal to them while in my care! Whether your dog is full of energy, or more low-key, I go with the flow! And yes— you can expect daily cute photo updates! :) Taking care of dogs is already a big part of my day-to-day—I’ve got a pup of my own, so I’m used to keeping a good routine down with walks, meals, playtime, and chill time. It’s kinda of second nature at this point! I’m all about keeping things consistent and making sure each dog feels comfy! When I am in someone’s home, I really try to stick to your dog’s normal routine! I’ll ask about all the details so your fur-baby feels comfortable! I am super respectful of your space and always clean up after myself and your dog! My main goal is to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well-loved while you’re gone! :)

“We had a fantastic experience with this pet-sitting service. The couple who watched our pets for two nights went above and beyond to ensure they were well cared for and happy. We received regular updates and lots of photos, which helped us feel at ease while we were away. It's clear they gave our pets excellent attention and we could tell they were in good hands. The entire process was smooth and we will definitely be using their services again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Isabella was simply AMAZING!!!!! A true gem from start to finish. She came to our home to meet both of our girls, one of them a 17 year old senior. She answered all of my questions and really took her time to get to know the dogs. We boarded with her for over 3 weeks while being out of country and she kept me up to date on how the girls were doing and sent pictures. The services provided by her were amazing and I have asked her to be our permanent sitter when we cannot take the girls. I know taking care of a senior dog is a whole other ballpark than a young(er) dog but both girls looked happy and healthy in all pics and when we returned. I would leave the girls with Isabella in a heart beat again! Thank you again for taking such good care of them!!!! I would also like to mention that she doesn’t run a “boarding factory” like some of the star sitters on here whom I had contacted when searching for a good match for our needs. It shows that she cares about the animal and not how many dogs she can cramp in her house to make the most money.”
“Shane was very patient with our three divas. They didn't want to eat, peed in his house, tore of a dog bed, and didn't want to take their pills. He kept in communication with us, sent pictures, and put up with them. Couldn't ask for more.”
“My Mei was well taken care of Joel and his wife took very good care communicated every single day sent photos the show progress that they were making with my baby and I was very satisfied with her. She was very well behaved when she came home and I would definitely rebook with them again. it was like she was being taken care of by family.”
“Kristina and her household were an incredible extended family for our dog, Bailey! She was kind, informative, affectionate, and kept us up to date with plenty of pics, videos and messages every day. As we left Kristina’s house, Bailey was genuinely sad to leave, and I get the sense that she can’t wait for next time! Highly recommend Kristina as a crucial part of anyone’s dog care family!”
“Heather was amazing! We have used Rover many times and our experience with Heather far surpassed the others. She sent a lot of pictures, walked our dogs, her kiddos cuddled and gave a lot of attention to our animals. I highly recommend booking with Heather. We for sure will be using her in the future.”
“Kelly and her family took great care of my dog Johnny while I was gone on an extended vacation! Kelly regularly sent updates and pictures of their activities and how he was doing and took great care of Johnny. Highly recommended and will definitely use Kelly’s services again!”
“Lynn and family loved on my out of practice/un-social girl and she came home actually wanting more interaction with more pups! We’re a fan and she’ll be a regular to come and enjoy some time away from home and have some interaction with other pups and humans to enjoy her need for socialization. Thank you for letting her warm up to the thought of being part of another pack for the week!”
“Jeff was great with Milo! He sent us updates and pictures and genuinely seemed so excited to have Milo at his house. It made us feel at ease that Milo was in a safe and loving environment. We will definitely be booking with Jeff again when we need someone to watch Milo.”
“Sherron was so sweet with our dog and very kind and accommodating. I can tell Skipper was well taken care of and happy in Sherron’s care. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Susan is absolutely the best sitter we have ever used. I loved the updates and how happy my dog looked in all the pictures. I actually had a great time when I went out of town because I knew my girl was in great hands. I am so thankful to have found Susan.”
“Brittny took great care of our girl, Heidi, during her stay. She was very communicative and shared pictures of our pup several times throughout the day. She even had an extra room with a doggie bed so our pup had her ‘own room’ for her stay. 😃 Highly recommend and we will happily board our pup with Brittny the next time our trip dates and her availability align!😊”
“Kate was great. She sent me updates with photos and was very flexible with our schedule since our flight got delayed coming home! I felt very comfortable leaving my little guy with her.”
“Leslie was an amazing sitter for our dog. She was kind, energetic, caring and loving towards Elysian. She gave us regular updates while we were away and kept us in the loop on everything. We will definitely be keeping Leslie in mind for our next Rover sitting needs :)”
“Mina was great! She stopped by to meet the boys a couple weeks before they would be staying with her. They loved her right away. Very responsive and gives us lots of updates about our pups.”
