“Julie is without a doubt the very best. Her kindness, care and understanding of Mojo’s needs was 2nd to none. My dog is now a 6 year old Havadoodle with significant separation issues. He took to Julie immediately on our first meet up and was happy to spend the week with her during my travels. I am so grateful for her many updates throughout each day, with photos that proved Mojo was happy to be in her care. If there was a 10 star review permitted, I would happily give Julie this rating without hesitation. Except for of course the dates that Mojo needs her !”

We are so grateful to them and absolutely recommend to others looking for exceptional care for their pups.”

Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease.

“Byul (and her husband) were wonderful with my two cats! They provided detailed summaries and numerous pictures from each visit, and were super responsive and communicative throughout my time away. They followed food/water/litter preferences to a tee, and ensured my cats had ample play time twice a day. They were even kind enough to clean up several accidents after my cats decided that the holidays were a perfect time to start having tummy issues, and Byul and her husband made sure to monitor their behavior and checked the home for other accidents. Most importantly, my cats loved Byul and I was at ease knowing they were receiving great care. I’d highly recommend Byul and her husband if you need a pet sitter!”
“AWESOME!! Quinn was awesome and I highly recommend her. I would definitely hire her again to watch Felix. Not only was she efficient, followed instructions, she also asked questions for clarity which I highly value. When I asked her to move a box so I could also check on Felix she was so GRACEFUL, and kind. Just a very sweet sweet, humble, caring person. I came home to happy, healthy, well cared for pet. When it came to peace of mind about the care and happiness of my pet, I feel she did and excellent job.”

About: I've loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. From ages 10 to 18, I lived in a home with multiple pets, including dogs, cats, and birds of all ages. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, playing, administering medication, and providing daily care to ensure they were happy and healthy. Today, I have my own dog, Loki, who has been part of my family for the past three years. I believe pets are family, and I treat every animal with the same compassion, patience, and love that I give my own. My goal is to provide a safe, caring, and dependable experience so you can have peace of mind while your furry family member is in my care.

About: I used to be a manager at a dog shelter which I absolutely loved before moving to a new state. I’ve also grown up on a farm and handled all types of pets from goats, pigs, cows to dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. I believe every animal deserves to be treated as family not just a pet. I am always home until 3pm when I leave for work, but when I am not home my partner is home. Someone will always be there to take care of your furry or scaly family and will never be left without someone even for a second. They will be welcomed with love, play, and kindness in my home. We will ensure nothing is around that will harm the animal whether it is cables, shoes, food, etc. we will always be around to ensure your pet is taken care of and in good health.
“This was the first time leaving my senior pup with Valbona. He's a little skidding after some nigh life changes, but she was so caring and took amazing care of Kent.”
“Kael and Juliana are fantastic! My dog always has a lot of fun with them. I love the videos they send throughout the day. I knew they were a great fit when I brought my dog over for a second time and she immediately jumped out of the car and ran to Kael. 5 out of 5 starts!”
“Jennifer was amazing and helped me out last minute when another rover sitter cancelled! She was super responsive and Spike enjoyed spending the day with her and Louis :) I would definitely book again!”
“Daniel took such good care of Joy while I was out. I got regular photo updates, and despite my general anxiety, I felt totally comfortable that Joy was absolutely fine. I will 100% let Daniel care for Joy again!”
“Jessica took amazing care of Luna. She was communicative during her stay, sending me photos and letting me know how she was doing. This was very reassuring when using a new pet sitter. Luna also took a liking to her and we look forward to booking again with her.”

About: My first two rescues were Rottweilers my third and only child is the child that my mom blessed me with. She is a needy, loving girl but high energy so I’ve dealt with everything from couch potato to high Strong lovely I work from home and my height energy baby is used to go out multiple times a day and she is great with any dog she needs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I am very active walking them in the neighborhood and we will always make time to go out. We are sidekick and we go walking together, dog parks together, but also she has not ever met a dog that she doesn’t love. Even those in the neighborhood that don’t get along with others love her. I do not have kids, but my nieces who are 5 to 9 or around her often so she is great with them, but I also understand those that don’t want their dog around kids so I will not bring them around them if they are uncomfortable.

“Sun has been great with our dog (Max), a 95-pound Staffy-Boxer mix, who can be excitable and overly rambunctious at times. Sun is very responsive to messages through Rover and has been very accommodating when unexpected circumstances crop up (e.g., ensuring Max has dinner if we have to stay late at the office). She’s also surprised Max with the occasional treat (like puppy pops on warm days), but she always checks in ahead of time to make sure he’s allowed to have them.”

“Jizelle was fantastic! This was our first time boarding Whitney using Rover (or ever for that matter) and Jizelle made everything so easy. From initial communication, to meeting her and her lovely pups at the meet and greet, all of our interactions with Jizelle confirmed that Whitney was in great hands while we were away. Jizelle was also very flexible with a last minute request to shift the drop off earlier than planned and provided us with regular photos and updates to let us know how things were going - she even braved foot high snow and ice to ensure that Whitney had adequate walks and fresh air following a once-in-a-decade snowmageddon! I 100% plan to utilize Jizelle's boarding services going forwards and would not hesitate to give her my strongest recommendation.”

She's been my first pick sitter since we moved to the area.”

“10 stars!!!!! My Layla is a 90lb American Bully who is scared of her own shadow. But upon first meeting, Layla loved the backyard and enjoyed playing with the other dogs and the sitter’s son!! The sitter allows the dogs to wander freely in the yard and home but also ensures that there are controlled zones for safety. My Layla is a very sensitive dog so I can tell from her temperament if she feels comfortable. When I came to pick Layla up she sat on the front porch with me letting the sitter pet her. I believe I have found a second home for her that will treat her like family when I am away!!!!!❤️❤️❤️”
“Francise is the absolute best all around: communication, photos, flexibility, and most importantly, the best care for Monty, who loves her. She can handle his reactive leash walking too, which gives me peace of mind. This is the second time we’ve used her and will do so again!”
“Ollie has the best time with Donna and always comes back so happily tired! And we love all the adorable updates she sends. Ollie is excited to head back to Donna’s next week for more fun!!”
“Jhony was absolutely incredible with my dog! He went above and beyond, not only following all the directions I left but also making sure to send me constant updates. You can tell he genuinely loves and respects animals. I felt completely at ease knowing my fur-boy was in such great hands. Highly recommend!”
