“Robb and his kids did such an amazing job taking care of our dog, Max! We have never felt so comfortable leaving him for a long trip. Robb even took the time to meet with us beforehand so Max could get familiar with him and his home. He carefully noted all of Max’s needs to make sure he felt comfortable during his stay. We also received regular photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be booking with him again—thank you so much, Robb, for taking such wonderful care of Max! He’s going to miss you all!”

“Marsha and her family were fantastic with Pepsi. She sent regular pictures and updates while we were on our trip and was easy to communicate with. Pepsi came back happy and better trained than we left him. We will definitely use Marsha again.”

“Ally and Trevor were awesome! This was our first time doing rover. She took our 8 month old lab for 9 days. She sent a picture or video (a lot of times both) every day. We will definitely be booking them again in the future.”

“Maddie and Sam were awesome! Maddie sent lots of pictures throughout the days we were gone and you could tell our pup was very loved. I would definitely book with them again!!”

“Kara was wonderful! She was so quick to respond and sent me sweet updates and pictures of our pup. She went out of her way to be accommodating of our crazy schedule the day of drop off. Her family spoiled our dog with attention, she came home and passed out after a bath like a toddler. I highly recommend Kara!”

“We love Ashley! I’ve taken my dog to Ashley for over a year at this point. He’s anxious and very timid and I trust her fully to take care of him!! He loves going there and gets so excited on the way to her house! Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Cinthya and her family took wonderful care of our Bailey!! They sent regular videos, pictures and updates about her while we were gone. It’s obvious she had love, attention and exercise everyday! I will definitely be bringing Bailey back to Cynthia when we need a dog sitter again!! Highly recommended!”

“They took such great care of my little doggie!! My dog is pretty particular about some things and they were so kind and loving. Sent pictures and videos every day and their communication was prompt and informative. Will definitely book with them again if I am heading out of town! Thank you!!”

“We were super nervous to leave our 6 month Dalmatian for the first time, but Andee was amazing right from the get go! Andee helped ease our worries before we even dropped our puppy off! She was amazing about sending updates and pictures the entire time! Would 100% recommend and would definitely have her watch our guy again!!”

“This is the second time we have had ashtyn watch our dog and she’s done amazing each time! I know Samson is in good hands with them. She sends updates daily with photos which is always comforting! Would recommend.”

“Lindsey took such great care of our nervous, anxious poodle while we were out of town. Our travel plans changed a bit and she was very flexible. She communicated with us about how our dog was doing and sent pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. She gave our dog the love and cuddles she needed to feel comfortable in a new environment.”

“I don’t think my dog wanted to come home after spending the weekend 😂 he loves adventure and fetch and based off of the pictures she sent while Boone was in her care, he had a blast. We will definitely be using Stephanie again!”

“Chelsea and her husband were excellent caretakers; Chelsea communicated very effectively allowing us to relax, knowing our pups were in amazing hands and were very happy with their stay.”

“Heather is a wonderful dog-sitter! She and her family took such great care of Scout for me! I could tell from the pictures she sent daily that Scout was so comfortable and happy with their family, which really eased my mind. I'm so grateful to Heather for the daily walks she took Scout on and for caring for him so well. Highly recommend Heather and would definitely love for her to watch my dog in the future.”

“All went as planned. We were a last minute booking and Hailey was so kind about it. It was very comforting to know Charlie was in a home and not cooped up in a kennel. Thank you Hailey and family!!”

“Meretta was incredible! My loving, cuddling cat loved play times and belly rubs. My angry, devil-spawn cat appreciated Meretta’s patience and willingness to give her space. Thank you, Meretta!”


“Very happy with Grace and Lance. They were able to come play with our dog with very little notice and flexible with a willing attitude. Even noticed the water needed filling and took care of that!”

“Celeste has been phenomenal! She’s taken such good care of my cat Al. She’s sent great photos each time and has communicated well about how he’s doing! I will book her again, for sure. I was unsure how I would feel booking someone I don't know to come to take care of my cat, but Celeste made the process super easy! Top-notch. I highly recommend!”

“She was such a great fur-babysitter! She did a great job taking care of our cat while my wife and I were away for a vacation. She played with him and provided him with lots of love and attention for us! She also sent updates from every visit. We will definitely try and book her again if we have to leave him again.”

“Chelsey and her family were awesome! I left my 7 week old kitten with them and she sent pictures and videos of her during the stay. I can tell Sophie had a great time because she came home and was exhausted- lots of play time! Thank you Chelsey :)”

About: I’ve had a lifelong passion for animals and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I have years of hands-on experience owning, training, and caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including seniors and high-energy breeds. From a young age, I began regularly walking, training, and caring for neighbors’ pets after they saw how well-mannered and happy my animals were. I’m attentive, patient, and highly observant of animal behavior, which helps me create a calm, safe environment and respond to each dog appropriately. I’m also experienced in caring for cats and am comfortable managing a variety of temperaments and routines for animals of all kinds. Providing reliable, compassionate care and giving pet parents peace of mind is something I truly value, and I love building trust with both pets and their people and creating a genuine relationship! Every morning I take the pups on a walk or run, and on every day but Tuesdays and Thursdays, I do backyard playtime in the afternoon, then every day in the evenings is indoor playtime. And on the weekends, I love to take my dogs on long hikes, to the dog park, or to go swimming! Please note that I am a student, so there will be times when they will need to be alone and unsupervised, usually kenneled, but I make it a point to expend energy before and after an absence like that so they will want to nap whilst I am away. I am very experienced in interpreting dog behavior/body language and handling stressful situations. I value honesty and transparency, and you can be sure to expect pictures and videos! :) I am willing to feed, walk, water, and brush your animals. Whatever they need, I am up for it!
About: I did housesitting for several years with my brother's St. Bernard dog as you see on my profile picture. Last year, I housesat for three cats. Recently I did housesat for a dog over spring break. I owned a dog and several cats in the past. About senior care, I owned and took care of an older cat. I'm currently working as a teacher at school which ends on May 23rd then I can do it anytime since my other job as crisis counselor allows me to work at home. I need a good WIFI. I used leash for dogs when taking them on walks. For cats, it depends on owner. Some cats are outdoors or indoors. I make sure they go potty and have play time. I know cats are super picky about their litters so poops must be scooped out. I use bag to pick up dog poop. I try to find out what animals likes to do and spend time with them.

“Ashley was so great to work with. We had Ashley watch our dog while we were at an all day wedding. She was quick to respond and I loved that she had my dog come meet her and her dogs beforehand, it brought me a lot of comfort knowing where and with whom I was leaving my dog. It also made the busy drop off day so smooth and happy for my dog because she already knew where she was going and we didn’t need to do all the introductions! Our dog was so happy when we picked her up, I know Ashley and her family took really good care of her. I would highly recommend working with her.”

“Kara and her family were fantastic! We used her for 2 days of daytime dog sitting while I was on a business trip. My husband dropped off and picked up and said he said they were amazing! My doggy was spoiled and seemed so happy there!”

“Janine was great!! We got lots of updates, photos and videos. She's very responsive to messages. She was creative with getting him to play and engage. It was our anxious corgi's first time staying with someone else and it was an overall great experience!”

“Lindsey is great and treats our dog very good. Lots of walking time and play time. Our dog gets excited to go in the house when we drop him off which tells us he is treated well.”

“I can’t recommend Taylee enough! He. She took my dogs in last minute and was absolutely amazing. My dogs instantly loved her and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. Reliable, kind, and clearly great with animals—I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Cinthya was wonderful with my precious boy! She sent updates and photos and videos throughout the day. I'll definitely plan to have her watch Liam again and highly recommend her!”

“Stephanie and her girls were PHENOMENAL! She was quick to respond to my last minute request, everything was easy to set up, and I felt so comfortable leaving Henry with her! I loved he just got to be outside all day and play with her girls to burn off that puppy energy. My boy slept the entire way home, so they definitely wore him out! Will definitely be using them again next time I'm in town!”


“Crystal did an amazing job! She was able to watch our dog on short notice and she even gave him a little treat bag before he left. We were super happy with her because she was willing to watch our dog the day after he got neutered. She treated him like her own even with his little cone on.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I kinda decided to try this at the last minute. All I was thinking about was how much I didn't want my sweet pup to be home alone while I had to be gone for several hours. I usually would be very particular about who I would let watch my pup (if at all), but after reading the reviews for Renee, I decided to let my guard down a little. Renee was so kind and treated my sweet boy like he was one of her own! It makes me feel good that Renee and her kids enjoyed him being there and he was well behaved. I definitely would recommend Renee and plan on requesting her again, just not at the last minute like today. 😉”

About: I have a loving family of six with AWESOME indoor and outdoor space to take great care of your furry besties. I am home most days and nights full time. 3 of our kids homeschool, and assist with much of the work and care. I’ve cared for pets large and small, young and senior, my whole life. Our outdoor space is large and fully fenced with shade and grass to play and relax in. I can also care for pets as needed indoors in our main living spaces. My space offers many options for play, rest, and I’ll make sure they’re loved, happy, and healthy. I am home often during the day and always at night. Part of our children’s education is to learn responsibility and to work well and often in the home. Caring for others pets as a business teaches love, care, empathy, work, and so much more. Their care will be a high priority in my home! Fully fenced large backyard with lush grass and shade. Roomy indoor pet-friendly spaces. Daily exercise and play for friends with lots of energy. Many opportunities for caring human interaction.
About: Talley’s House has two adults that work from home, two teenage dog loving sons, and two pups, Talley (12+) and Oz (2) that love to meet and play with new friends! We have a great setup for dogs of all types, and we would love to watch your dog(s)! We acknowledge we may not be right for everyone. Please read all the details in our profile to determine if our home is right for you. We work from home - pet care is baked into our daily/weekly routine. A TYPICAL DAY: 6:30-8:00 a.m. interactive playtime (fetch, tug-of-war, etc. ) 8:00-8:30 a.m. morning feeding and rest 8:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. open playtime - we work while the dogs play. They come in an out freely while we supervise from our workstation. We group dogs as needed. See the safety, trust & environment section for details. 12:00 - 3:00 p.m. treats and training followed by quiet time in kennels 3:00 - 5:00 p.m interactive playtime round 2 5:00 - 6:00 p.m. evening feeding and quiet time in kennels 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. interactive playtime round 3 8:00 - 9:00 p.m. quiet time 9:00 - 10:00 p.m. final playtime and bedtime routine (treats and training) 10:00 p.m. - 6:30 a.m. bedtime in kennels We prefer pickup/dropoff times between 7:00 - 10:00 a.m or 4:00 - 7:00 p.m. so we can devote time to helping the dogs adjust to the environment and their temporary pack. The only thing we need from you at drop off is their food in a ZIPLOC w INSTRUCTIONS WRITTEN on it. If needed, bring a small blanket or toy with the scent of home. We do NOT need beds, food dishes, or leash. We engage in activities that stimulate their prey drive (fetch, tug-of-war...), play drive (playtime with Talley, Ozzy, and other guests), and work on training behaviors a couple of times a day, as appropriate. They are out of the kennel interacting with dogs and people most of the day. In order for your dog to have a great experience, they need to play well with other dogs and be comfortable spending time in a kennel. SAFETY & TRUST: We have been trained in behavior recognition to ensure the safety and enjoyment of our guests. When we have multiple guests, we group dogs as needed (by age, size, "fixed" or not, temperament, and/or energy level) to optimize the experience for each guest. We feed them in a kennel to ensure food isn't shared and give them quiet time after meals to ensure they have adequate time to digest before playing again. We expect our guests to be up to date with their vaccinations. When a new dog arrives give them time to explore on their own, then we gradually introduce them to other dogs to assess temperament and compatibility. That is the reason we prefer to limit the pickup and dropoff windows so we can devote that critical time. Please see availability for more info on times. ENVIRONMENT: We have a dedicated space both indoors and outdoors for the dogs. Inside we have an air-conditioned apartment dedicated to the dogs. They have a couch, area rug, background music, and their own 4x4, 4x6, or 5x5 kennel. We reserve a corner for a workstation where we work during the day. Outside we have a fenced area for the dogs with turf and toys. We setup a canopy for extra shade on hot sunny days since we don't have natural shade from trees yet. We wet the turf down on hot days to ensure it's comfortable for the dogs as well.
About: Need a sitter who truly understands dogs? I’ve had pets my whole life and currently raise a happy, 2.5 year old pup who is a total social butterfly. Your dog won't just get a attentive sitter—they’ll get a built-in playmate! I love reinforcing good manners and ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and thoroughly entertained. I am currently on summer break from school and am home full time. Our days include playtime at home, walks around the neighborhood, and an occasional trip to the dog park. I have an unfenced grassy area outside my front door that we use for play. May dog is also always up for play. I am able to crate dogs if needed too.
About: I have had pets all my life, dogs, cats, hamsters, birds. You name it, I have probably had it. I love all pets but especially dogs! I have taken all the dogs I have own to training and love being with them. I own 2 dogs now. 1 is named Koda and she is a full golden retriever and the other is Lucy, she is a Golden retriever/ Lab mix. They are indoor lovable dogs. I believe that dogs are apart of the family, so in my house they are allowed to be on the furniture to cuddled with! I am a stay at home mom and have 2 dogs. Your dogs will be walked (when it is not crazy hot out) Loved on and played with while you are away! I am happy to send daily pictures of your pups if you would like! I have a fenced yard and crates for bed if you are more comfortable with that. I have 2 dogs for yours to play with and 3 kids, aged 10,12 and 14 who love and respect dogs. I love to play fetch with dogs and other games. We even have a small splash pool for the dogs to play in.

I love all animals and I think they deserve the best care that one could give! I am used to being around dogs/cats of all ages from puppies to pretty old dogs I currently do not have a job due to just coming back from college in West Virginia, so I have a very free and flexible schedule!

“Chantelle has been so great with our dog! She was willing to do a meet and greet which helped acquaint our pup with her before their first walk. She is so thorough and gives our pup lots of love. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets—both dogs and cats—since I was a kid, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve had my own dogs for nearly 20 years, giving me firsthand experience with daily care, routines, and the love and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. I’ve also owned a cat for many years, so I understand the unique personalities and care cats require as well. Because of this lifelong experience, I’m comfortable, patient, and attentive, and I treat every pet I care for like they’re part of my own family. I’m home full time, which means your pets will have consistent care, attention, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to keep a close eye on their routines, make sure they’re fed on schedule, let dogs out regularly, and give plenty of playtime, cuddles, and reassurance. Because I’m always home, pets aren’t left alone for long stretches, helping them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a large, fully fenced yard that gives pets plenty of safe space to run, explore, and burn off energy. With kids and a friendly dog at home, there’s always someone ready to play, throw a ball, or provide companionship, making it a fun and engaging environment for visiting pets. All play is supervised to ensure everyone stays safe and happy, so your pet gets both exercise and social interaction in a loving, family-style setting.

About: I have always loved taking care of pets especially dogs, friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to drop in and take care of their fur babies. I love the energy that dogs give off, but I don't mind cats either. I am willing to play fetch with them for hours, take them on walks, and ensure that they are being taken care of and having tons of fun. I work the night shift at a nursing home 6pm to 6 am, 3 days a week! i am pretty flexible to work in any other needs around that time! please reach out to me and let me know how i can help! I love structure and routine, so being able to stick to their routine and what they are comfortable with works the best with me. I am able to assist them in their needs.
About: I offer dog and cat sitting, drop-ins for dogs and cats, and dog walking. I have experience house-sitting for small to very large dogs, and have a natural ability to bond with almost any dog or cat. I have walked well behaved, leash trained dogs to very hard to manage leash beginners. I have also walked dogs ranging from teacup Chihuahua to Great Dane. I have experience with sick animals and managing and administering medications and monitoring symptoms. My experience includes administering medications to very scared, difficult dogs, as well as cats. I can identify unusual behaviors to report as needed. I also have experience with puppy deliveries, puppies, adult, and senior dogs with special needs. I love all animals and pride myself in taking the best care of every pet. I have 3 cats of my own I play with and care for daily, and I work part time so I have plenty of time for your pet! I unfortunately can’t board/sit pets at my house every day, however I have experience with indoor and outdoor pets with both fenced or non-fenced yards. I respect the environment that is most comfortable and familiar to the pet. I have an open schedule and am generally available anytime needed. I do my best to keep my calendar up to date with my availability. I try to keep pets in their normal and comfortable routines. I don’t want to disrupt, only to make things easier for the pets and owners. Everything will be discussed before any visit, and I will communicate regularly.
About: I’ve had the absolute pleasure looking after numerous dogs and cats, tailoring my approach to each pets unique needs.

About: I've had pets of every kind since I was 3 years old. Most of my pets have been dogs, although I've had cats, calves, horses, lambs, pigs and goats at times. I've had to feed, bathe, walk and of course doctor animals all my life. I currently have two English Bulldogs that I love very much. I'm currently retired and so I am flexible with my schedule. I am able to travel within a 10-15 mile radius for care. I have a reliable vehicle. I have a fenced yard and two English Bulldogs. One is female and one is male. I have a dog door that leads outside so that my dogs can go in and out at will.
About: While we have 3 dogs of our own, we have a large area and easy ways to separate if need be. We have a HUGE fenced-in outdoor area where they can run around, chase squirrels, sniff, dig, and all the fun things! We also have a large indoor dog room for them to play, sleep and eat in. Lastly, have a good-sized covered enclosed patio, so if they want to be outside, but it is a bit cold, we have options. These areas make it easy for us to separate dogs if there are any aggression issues or if any are un-fxed. I work partially remote. I leave the house from about 10-4pm on Mondays and Fridays, but other than that am pretty available to be home and handle whatever crazy things the pups come up with! We have lots of room for your doggos to run around and the friendliest Goldendoodle who LOVES to play (if yours are game, otherwise, we will keep them separated)
About: Hi there! My name is Kelsey and I’m excited to get to know you and your fur babies! I, myself, have two doggies of my own. A sweetheart of a German Shepherd and one high maintenance Cocker Spaniel. They are my not just dogs, but a major part of our family. I fall in love with every dog I meet and my goal is to be your preferred sitter because I want to build a relationship with your pups (and you) so that they feel comfortable during their time with me! Plus then I get to see them regularly. :) I have a lot of experience with dogs. I am a certified pet groomer which I do not practice anymore but I am hoping to one day switch gears and become a professional dog trainer and hope to one day train service dogs. A little background on me——> I am 32 years old and have been obsessed with dogs and animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve been bit by several dogs (mostly due to grooming and training) and yet, I haven’t ever hated a dog. I am a very organized person who loves meeting new people (and pups!). This passion came from growing up on a farm. I have been taking care of many different types of animals since before I can remember. My mother also bred a couple different types of dog breeds growing up. There was never a moment without a dog or some type of animal that I had to look after. Booking with me —-> My promise and guarantee is that you will not be disappointed in choosing me to look after your pet because your pup deserves to be treated like royalty and that’s a goal that I have been able to achieve every time with ease. Can’t wait to meet your best friend!! (No pressure but if interested, ask me about my grooming or house cleaning services.) -Kelsey Pets are like children, therefore part of the family. Because of this, they’re top priority. I make sure they’re fed, sheltered, get love, have fresh water, and as many potty breaks and exercise that they need! Your pets will get lots of love and attention! I also like to try and maintain behaviors so any commands, hand signals, rules… etc., is something I’d like to know in order to keep up the routine(s).
About: **My rates vary as they are based on animal breed/size and specific needs. This can be discussed before booking. **Please make sure all vaccines are up to date and grooming or good bath takes place prior to boarding.** I have taken care of animals since I was very young, owned several different kinds of animals and breeds. Over the years I have tended to and cared for many kinds of animals for other people, both at their home and at mine for various lengths of time. My schedule is decently flexible since I'm a stay at home mom. I have 3 young children that would love to "help" me take care of your precious fur babies. :) Non smoking, clean and safe environment. Three small children who love animals and would be thrilled to help care for your pet. Plenty of space to keep your pet comfortable and safe.
About: I’ve had dogs in my home since I was 7 years old. We’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from a 6 week old puppy too a 15 year old senior. We’ve cared for many breeds.

About: I’ve been taking care of my family dog since I was a young girl for years. I have also taken care of family and friend’s dogs as well and I love being around animals! I work part time along with attending a couple of classes for school, so I have all mornings, most afternoons, and all nights to play and care for your pets! I am very gentle and caring with animals. I always keep an eye on them and make sure they are safe. I let them out, let them in, and play with them in a safe, gentle, and energetic manner!
About: Need a sitter who truly understands dogs? I’ve had pets my whole life and currently raise a happy, 2.5 year old pup who is a total social butterfly. Your dog won't just get a attentive sitter—they’ll get a built-in playmate! I love reinforcing good manners and ensuring every dog feels safe, loved, and thoroughly entertained. I am currently on summer break from school and am home full time. Our days include playtime at home, walks around the neighborhood, and an occasional trip to the dog park. I have an unfenced grassy area outside my front door that we use for play. May dog is also always up for play. I am able to crate dogs if needed too.
“What a joy, for both me and my dogs, to have Sharon helping us out while I am recovering from an accident. My boxers come home happy and tired… just the way I like them ?. I highly recommend Sharon for your pet care needs.”

About: As a passionate and experienced dog lover, I am the perfect choice to take care of your furry companion! I have a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs, I am dedicated to ensuring the well-being and happiness of every pet in my care. I prioritize safety, positive reinforcement and lots of belly rubs. With me, you can have peace of mind knowing that your four-legged friend is in good hands and I will be sure to send lots of photos! I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule. I don't have a regular 9-5 therefore I can check in or walk your pup during the day. I sadly don't have a fenced backyard however I'm happy to stay in your home and take care of your pup there! That way they can feel more comfortable.
About: I’ve had a lifelong passion for animals and truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. I have years of hands-on experience owning, training, and caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, including seniors and high-energy breeds. From a young age, I began regularly walking, training, and caring for neighbors’ pets after they saw how well-mannered and happy my animals were. I’m attentive, patient, and highly observant of animal behavior, which helps me create a calm, safe environment and respond to each dog appropriately. I’m also experienced in caring for cats and am comfortable managing a variety of temperaments and routines for animals of all kinds. Providing reliable, compassionate care and giving pet parents peace of mind is something I truly value, and I love building trust with both pets and their people and creating a genuine relationship! Every morning I take the pups on a walk or run, and on every day but Tuesdays and Thursdays, I do backyard playtime in the afternoon, then every day in the evenings is indoor playtime. And on the weekends, I love to take my dogs on long hikes, to the dog park, or to go swimming! Please note that I am a student, so there will be times when they will need to be alone and unsupervised, usually kenneled, but I make it a point to expend energy before and after an absence like that so they will want to nap whilst I am away. I am very experienced in interpreting dog behavior/body language and handling stressful situations. I value honesty and transparency, and you can be sure to expect pictures and videos! :) I am willing to feed, walk, water, and brush your animals. Whatever they need, I am up for it!
About: My husband and I have had dogs big and small growing up so we’re very familiar with their mannerisms, behavior and unique personalities. We’ve had our own dogs for four years and love them dearly, they’re our babies! I’m currently a stay-at-home mom so I am available and pretty flexible for the most part throughout the day. My dogs help me around the house as I get things done. I have a fenced in yard with two of my own dogs to keep yours company! Occasionally I let the dogs inside to hang out and eat, or depending on the weather to keep warm/cool. At bedtime I bring them in to sleep in their dog crate.
“Courtney has been great with Sage, walking him daily for me. She's great at communicating how he's doing each day and let's me know if the schedule needs to be rearranged with plenty of notice. Highly recommend!”

“Crystal is kind, patient and invested in your pet. Her loving heart shines and she has the sweetest smile when she greets you. My dogs love her. We were gone for 5 days and she caresd for my pets in such a loving manor. When she had time, she would send pictures. ******** I think people on Rover need to understand that when she signs up to take your pet, she is taking it seriously! She walks your pet twice a day and sometimes more. She personally has play time outside while bonding with your dog and she tailors everything around her to YOUR pet. Because she takes her job seriously, she may not be able to respond to your texts as quickly as you’d like because she is literally working her tail off trying to care and fully love your pet, because that’s just the kind of person she is! Thank you Crystal!! ******* I am totally Impressed and I recommend her 100%.”
“Sharon was wonderful and attentive to my boys. She sent pictures every day and played with them often. She learned their individual personalities and was attentive to their uniqueness. Our boys were happy and content and well taken care of.”

“Ally and Trevor were awesome! This was our first time doing rover. She took our 8 month old lab for 9 days. She sent a picture or video (a lot of times both) every day. We will definitely be booking them again in the future.”

“Maddie and Sam were awesome! Maddie sent lots of pictures throughout the days we were gone and you could tell our pup was very loved. I would definitely book with them again!!”

“Kara was wonderful! She was so quick to respond and sent me sweet updates and pictures of our pup. She went out of her way to be accommodating of our crazy schedule the day of drop off. Her family spoiled our dog with attention, she came home and passed out after a bath like a toddler. I highly recommend Kara!”

“We love Ashley! I’ve taken my dog to Ashley for over a year at this point. He’s anxious and very timid and I trust her fully to take care of him!! He loves going there and gets so excited on the way to her house! Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Cinthya and her family took wonderful care of our Bailey!! They sent regular videos, pictures and updates about her while we were gone. It’s obvious she had love, attention and exercise everyday! I will definitely be bringing Bailey back to Cynthia when we need a dog sitter again!! Highly recommended!”

“They took such great care of my little doggie!! My dog is pretty particular about some things and they were so kind and loving. Sent pictures and videos every day and their communication was prompt and informative. Will definitely book with them again if I am heading out of town! Thank you!!”

“We were super nervous to leave our 6 month Dalmatian for the first time, but Andee was amazing right from the get go! Andee helped ease our worries before we even dropped our puppy off! She was amazing about sending updates and pictures the entire time! Would 100% recommend and would definitely have her watch our guy again!!”

“This is the second time we have had ashtyn watch our dog and she’s done amazing each time! I know Samson is in good hands with them. She sends updates daily with photos which is always comforting! Would recommend.”

“I don’t think my dog wanted to come home after spending the weekend 😂 he loves adventure and fetch and based off of the pictures she sent while Boone was in her care, he had a blast. We will definitely be using Stephanie again!”

“Courtney is terrific. She communicates regularly and takes great care of our dogs. Our dogs love her kids too. We’ve used her multiple times now and always have a good experience.”

“Chelsea and her husband were excellent caretakers; Chelsea communicated very effectively allowing us to relax, knowing our pups were in amazing hands and were very happy with their stay.”

“I never worried for one second while I was away and my babies were with Kassidee. They were loved and well taken care of. She was very mindful about introducing my dogs to hers when I dropped them off and everyone got along great! Her pups and kids are sweet as they come. She sent daily updates and photos. My dogs were happy when I came to get them and I could tell they were loved while I was gone. Her yard is secure and I didn't have to worry about my escape artist getting free. I would book with her again and you should too!”

“Heather is a wonderful dog-sitter! She and her family took such great care of Scout for me! I could tell from the pictures she sent daily that Scout was so comfortable and happy with their family, which really eased my mind. I'm so grateful to Heather for the daily walks she took Scout on and for caring for him so well. Highly recommend Heather and would definitely love for her to watch my dog in the future.”

“Cheri and her husband were great! Our last experience with rover left us feeling like our dog would never be happy staying at another person’s house other than our own…with our previous experience, our dog didn’t eat for two days—Cheri had Murphy eating in 30 minutes. Hands down will be using them for future trips!”
