“Natasha and her family took care of our dogs like they were members of their family. Other places offered our dogs to " let out" every few hours from a shed. Natasha looked after our partially deff and blind senior citizen pug and our ball obsessed boarder collie in their own home. The dogs were always around someone who could play and love on them.”
“My girls felt right at home with Cyndi their first time staying with her. They both loved her comfy dog bed and were spoiled with cookies! I would highly recommend her and will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Highly recommend. Damacia took care of Teddy very well.. Teddy attached to her as a family member. She updated every day with his picture. Thanks Damacia 🥰”
“She was so accommodating for us. We picked Coda up much later than intended but she worked with us. I got so many pictures during his stay and he literally looked like he was smiling! I would definitely recommend”
“Pamela and Paul are legit ‘dog people’. They got to know Ollie pretty quickly and confidently helped him ease into a friendship with Marlowe and another client. I received the usual photos of Ollie with a ball or snuggling humans, but was surprised to also receive photos of Ollie playing and snuggling with the other dogs, which was a whole new experience for him! I’m happy to know he was so well taken care of during his time with Pamela, Paul and Marlowe and will reach out again for future boarding!”
“Elizabeth was great with our needy, hyper puppy. I needed a last minute solution to watch our puppy during a work trip. He is awaiting knee surgery so he has physical limitations at the moment. Elizabeth took excellent care of him and sent frequent updates with pictures to let me know how he was doing. I will happily take Moose back to her in the future!”
“I have two small kittens that I had to leave for a week. They stayed with Riley all week and looked very content and happy in the pictures I received. Riley’s veterinary experience was also a huge peace of mind. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Mich was awesome! Our dog felt welcomed and comfortable during her stay. Mich’s dog, Milo, was a good companion/ host. Great back yard. Mich sent pictures and regular updates. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
“Matt was great with our dog for boarding and sent us lots of pictures to keep us updated throughout the stay. We would highly recommend Matt!”
“When our dogs are with Laura and DJ, we know they are be taken care of like true members of their family. We especially appreciate the special care they give to our elderly dog. It is not common to find a home where an older dog can go and to feel at ease with it.”
“Jesse has done a wonderful job taking care of my 7 year old Samoyed! He provides good photo updates, his dogs are friendly, and drop-off/pick-up is always easy. I would highly recommend, and look forward to using his services again in the future.”
“Radka and James were fantastic! Winston had a wonderful weekend at their house. There was great communication, we received multiple pictures and videos every day!”
“Im so glad my little guy got to stay with Emily and her daughter! He came home happy and healthy, and Emily sent some photos and updates while we were away. Great and quick to communicate! Highly recommend.”
“Rachel was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute after our original sitter canceled, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She was incredibly flexible, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. She also has two dogs of her own, and they got along great with ours, which made the experience even better. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Jennifer is a super sitter! Maya looked so happy and healthy when we picked her up after our Labor Day trip (5 days). I received updates and photos everyday! We were a little worried Maya wouldn’t want to come home after Jennifer took such good care of her! We will be booking with Jennifer again! Thank you Jennifer for giving Maya a loving, safe home away from home!”
“I was completely new to Rover as I’ve always been able to leave Aldo with family members he knows but the time finally came where I needed outside help. I honestly dreaded this and felt bad for having to leave Aldo behind BUT Cassandre made this process INCREDIBLY easy by providing reassurances and confidence that Aldo would be taken care of. Detailed updates on Aldo were provided through out the day along with videos/photos showing his progress of being in a new place. From the moment I dropped Aldo off to the moment I picked him up I had full confidence he was taken care of like one of their own ☺️”

“Kim is everything I could wish for in a caregiver for my cat (or dog when I get another). She is communicative, patient, kind and loves animals. She takes the time to really be with them and get to know them. And she takes great pictures.”
“Liz did a wonderful job. The communication was great—she sent loads of photos, which gave us peace of mind on our trip. Most importantly, she was great with our cats, who clearly adored her. We will definitely hire her again!”
About: I’m a big cat lover and really enjoy getting to know each cat’s personality. Whether they’re playful, shy, or just want quiet company, I’m happy to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I keep litter boxes clean, make sure they’re eating well, and always send cute photo updates.
About: I’ve been an avid animal lover my entire life. My family has always had at least 2 pets at any given time and in the past 4 years we have fostered close to 80 pups! I’m currently working towards my CCTBS certification (certified canine training and behavior specialist). I’ve worked at dog daycares as well as the SPCA. During this time, I cared for dogs and cats from all walks of life. I befriended anxious pets who feared humans and gained acceptance from those who show aggression. I have experience with puppies/kittens, seniors, special needs, and more! I specialize in caring for the pets who are a bit more on the nervous side as I am very patient and attentive to detail. That being said, I love a good happy go lucky pet as well! I am also qualified to administer medications, even injectables. Whether it’s a little check in or a long walk, I’m here to help! I work 7am to anywhere between 11am and 3pm, leaving me enough flexibility to care for your pets scheduled needs! My days off vary each week with weekends being mandatory. On my days off, I’m able to provide more flexibility for extended visits and one on one time with your furry friends, just reach out and I’ll let you know what my off days are for the week! If you’re looking for recurring walks or sitting we can discuss that further so I can adjust my schedule accordingly! Your pets will be treated like one of my own, pampered and spoiled! I will follow any guidelines or routines you have in place. If your pet knows any tricks or manners to practice, I’m more than happy to implement those! In each and every visit, I like to take the time to give the animal and the home a once over to make sure everything looks good and safe before I leave.
“Mark was a wonderful drop-in sitter for 3 cats. AND helped us navigate whatever changes in schedule needed to happen as well as assist with an unexpected vet visit. He's a marvel, and very conscientious with logging visits AND a photo every visit!”
“I have two small kittens that I had to leave for a week. They stayed with Riley all week and looked very content and happy in the pictures I received. Riley’s veterinary experience was also a huge peace of mind. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Carleen was a sanity saver, we have 4 cats, some with special needs, she was very professional and friendly. Glad we were able to find a great local cat sitter.”
About: I’ve ran my own pet sitting business for the last 6 years at my home and have enjoyed it! I absolutely love animals and am ready to give back to the Harrisonburg community by helping pets in need of care and extra love!! Although I have a busy schedule, I available most days in the evening for dog walking! I walk everyday after work and would love to have some furry company. I have a fenced in yard, and live in a neighborhood where I can care for your pet and give them the exercise they need. There are lots of paths and parks nearby!
About: I have previous experience working as a field manager for a professional pet care company where I have taken care of dozens of dogs/cats of all ages with many different routines/needs, I have my Pet First Aid and CPCR certification, and I currently have two young German Shepherd pups of my own! I have always been very passionate about animals and know how important it is to feel that your pets are in good hands when you are away. I currently work an early morning part-time job, which leaves me the rest of the day to play with your pups! I am available during the week and on most weekends for boarding and walking. I live near many different walking trails to keep your dogs entertained. I have a fenced in yard and two young German Shepherd dogs who LOVE playing with other dogs. I have crates and gates if needed. I do my best to keep animals close to their usual daily routines so they are as comfortable as possible while they are away from their owners.
About: I have interacted, raised and cared for cats my entire life and have experience with all kinds of personalities- from shy and independent to playful and affectionate. I currently have two senior cats, so I wholeheartedly understand the importance of keeping a consistent routine, monitoring their health and behavior, and providing plenty of enrichment to keep them happy and comfortable. I'm patient, attentive, and committed to making every cat feel safe, respected, and well cared for.
“Cynthia is an excellent cat sitter! She has tons of experience with cats, had no problem cleaning up after my cat when she had an accident, and shared helpful advice for cat care. I’ve already booked her twice and intend to have her as my go to for future travel!”
“Damacia did a nice job taking care of our kitties. He was punctual and professional. He communicated when he would be at our house and when he left. He also took pictures of our kitties which was nice. I would recommend him for sure.”
About: Hello there! I’m Sam. I’ve loved animals since I was 9 years old and have been a pet sitter on Rover for over 4 years now. As you can see from all my reviews, I enjoy being part of this community! Currently, I have two fur babies of my own: Tango, a Norwegian Elkhound, and Scout, a Pitbull/Yorkie mix. In 2024, my beloved Timmy, a dachshund senior dog passed away at 15 years old, so I also have personal experience caring for older dogs who need a little extra love and specialized attention. I know firsthand how important and how difficult it is to find someone you can completely trust with your pets while you're away. I can assure you that your fur baby will be in safe hands with me. A Little Perk: I just got a nice camera and am looking to practice my photography! I am offering free digital pictures with any house-sitting or drop-in booking. I currently work a remote 9-to-5 job with plenty of flexibility, meaning I can easily adjust my schedule to fit your pet's specific routine and needs throughout the day. I do not offer services in my home since I live in an apartment with my 2 dogs. I have a reliable means of transportation, and I can make any special accomodations for your pets if necessary.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Auburn Chase
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, growing up in a home with multiple pups of all sizes. From feeding and bathing to long walks and playtime, I’ve always been hands-on in making sure they’re happy and well cared for. In addition to dogs, I’ve also raised birds, turtles, and fish, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I currently work from home so I’m able to provide physical comfort and stimulation via petting and playing with toys. We also have a dog park where I can take your pet for off leash running around and fetching. I have experience providing oral medicine for dogs. I allow dogs on furniture and free roaming in the house, but if you have a crate and wish to bring it just let me know. Please provide any instructions on feeding schedule or items.
“Always satisfied with Srujana’s care and enthusiasm when looking after Tenor. The pup always comes back happy, and most importantly, tuckered you after playing with Rex all day.”
About: I’m a stay at home mom with three dog crazy kiddos! I’ve always had dogs my entire life, and spent part of my young adulthood working as a vet tech. I have experience walking dogs for my neighbors growing up and taking care of friends’ critters. I’m home most of the day so your pup will get plenty of attention and opportunity for exercise and play time. My family and I love hanging out at home in our backyard when weather is nice and spending time with our animal crew. Nowadays, I live on three acres with my family including a little schnauzer and a flock of chickens. Your pup will be able to go on long walks and adventures as our neighborhood has lots of trail options! My kids are in school most of the day, and are very responsible and good with all animals. Your pup will get lots of socialization and love with us. Your fur baby will be in good hands with us!
“Vannessa is very reliable and sweet! My puppy loves her. She sends pics/vids throughout the day. Its a bonus that she lives 5mins from me. Grateful to have found her as I wasn’t expecting to get Ace so soon. So thank you very much for all you do, it is more than appreciated!”
“Andreea was very professional and took good care of our 1 year old golden retriever Theo. Theo is an energetic dog due to his age and Andreea was able to manage his energy. She has a big backyard and couple of dogs herself which made Theo’s time enjoyable and I could see Theo wanted to spend more time with her. Overall a great experience and would recommend Andreea to everyone.”
“Paula was wonderful! We were visiting from out of town and she took our booking even though it was short notice. Our dog had a great experience and Paula was responsive and kind.”
“Bentley really enjoyed his dog sit with Aileen and her family. Everything went well. Kept me informed of how much fun he was having and sent pictures. Will definitely be rebooking in the future.”
“Gus spent the day with Elizabeth as a trial for an overnight. She was very responsive and sent us great pictures throughout the day. He came home very content. We’re looking forward to his overnight visit next week. Thank you Elizabeth!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 5 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to care for their dogs and cats of all sizes while they travel or during emergencies. I love spoiling pets whenever I get the chance, and I treat every dog or cat as if they were my own. I do work a hybrid schedule and I’m also able to work from your home as well while sitting. I have plenty of time after or even before that to care for any pet that’s in my care. I’m free and available! I have a fenced in backyard and two other fur babies that will also keep your fur babies company and they have a lot of energy as well. I have enough space within my home to crate your puppies/dogs if needed.
“Pamela and Paul were awesome with Monroe! She is a sensitive dog who felt right at home with a little extra attention. They were flexible with our schedule and accommodating for a late pick up one day. I will definitely use them again- true animal lovers that treat your dog like their own!”
“Susan and Josh were such great hosts for June! Lots of outdoor space, and other dogs to hang out with. I would recommend this home to any pet and will use again if we’re in the area!”
“Excellent doggy daycare! Rachel is friendly, attentive, and treats every dog like family. My dog loves coming here and I appreciate the updates and great care. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had my own dogs since my early 20’s, and I’d probably have about ten more if I could. Everyone in our family has dogs, ranging from tiny Yorkipoos to big ol’ lab mixes, and I love them all! I currently have one rescue pup, Russell, who is 19 different breeds! I am patient, I don’t get grossed out easily, and I will love your pup like it’s a member of the family. My husband and I are both teachers, so we are home full-time during the summer with our two teenage kids. During the school year we work, but I’m usually home by 3:30. Our 13-year old daughter is interested in pursuing a career working with animals, so she will be assisting in the care of your pet. We have a large fenced yard and a dog-friendly house. We even have a doggie door for pups to come and go outside to the back yard as they need or want to. We have one 5-year old dog who gets along great with other pups. Usually when we dog sit, we have the visiting pup have a home base in our daughter’s room where they can be fed separately, have peace and quiet, and enjoy the best air conditioning in the house! We are a dogs on furniture house, and she even loves to let the dogs we are sitting sleep in her bed with her if they want. Your dog should expect many pets and snuggles at our house! If we are coming to your house, we will follow whatever routines and rules you’ve established for your pet. But still expect lots of love for your pet!
“Sorry for the late review. I've been doing the grandma thing for the past 2 weeks. I am a widow and I live alone many miles from family. My dogs, Margot and Molly, have become my life. When I learned that they were not invited to the party, I almost declined the invitation. Through a trusted friend, I learned about Rover. I took a chance and booked a time with Dawn. WOW! It's like taking your child to kindergarten for the first day and they walk away from you without looking back. I like to think the girls are good judges of character. Well Dawn took their leashes and they walked away from me without looking back They were not the least stressed when I picked them up later. They had play time with other dogs, they had their dinner and they were ready for a good night's sleep when I picked them up. I got updates on where they were and what they were doing. I couldn't be happier than I was with Dawn's care. This experience was a golden buzzer for me.”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring dog lover who treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand that pets are family, and my goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or feeding, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Why Choose Me? ✔ Patient, attentive, and reliable ✔ Clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment ✔ Regular updates with photos and messages ✔ Genuinely love spending time with animals I work from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a friendly dog of my own, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for play and socialization. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s routine, provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. Your dog will never be left alone for long and will be treated like part of the family. I care for pets as if they were my own, with safety, trust, and comfort as my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm environment with a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play and potty breaks. I also have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet, safe space to relax.
“Ashley and her family were wonderful in watching my sweet puppy Banks for the day! I was in desperate need of a last minute sitter and Ashley stepped in to help. This was my first time away from Banks and I was overjoyed that he came home happy and well cared for! I would absolutely hire Ashely again and I am so thankful for such an amazing experience :)”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with them and can't imagine life without them. Twice a week I volunteer at a local dog rescue, which keeps me sharp on handling dogs of all ages, temperments, and needs. I also share my home with cats, so I understand feline routines and personalities just as well as I do dogs. From playful puppies and kittens to gentle seniors who need a little extra patience, I am able to offer an energetic walk or a calm, reassuring visit to your pet's day. I bring genuine love, attentiveness, and real hands-on experience to every walk and drop-in. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a consistent schedule and enjoy planning my days around the pets I am caring for. I volunteer at a dog rescue on Monday and Friday mornings and have a few standing commitments on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Outside of those times, I have a flexible schedule and am committed to maintaining each pet's individual or household routines. I am very reliable, thrive with structure, and always make sure the pets in my care receive the attention and consistency they deserve. I believe pets thrive with a consistent routine and am able to follow instructions closely for feeding, litter box cleaning, walks, medications, brushing, and any other custom and daily care. I also pay close attention to each pet's behavior and body language so I am able to recognize when something seems out of character or when they need a different approach, committing to always notify the owner for follow up. I never force interactions or activities- for example, if a dog is not interested in a walk, I will adjust and find an alternative way to keep them engaged and comfortable. Above all, I prioritize a clean, safe, and low-stress environment where both cats and dogs feel secure and well cared for.

“Mark took great care of our puppy. He was very quick to respond to my request (it was somewhat short notice) and was a lifesaver. He kept us updated and paid attention to our dogs needs. I highly recommend Mark and will be using him in the future.”
About: (NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS IN RICHMOND!!!) I’ve taken care of my family’s pets my whole life and then 6 years ago I adopted my dog Beau- Frank. He is very high energy and has a lot of behavioral issues and food intolerances but I work with him every day with professional training. I have also cared for many friends and family’s pets and also for people I don’t know. I am very trustworthy and I am confident I could take care of your pet and keep them safe. No dog has as many issues as my dog so I haven’t run into a dog I can’t take care of! I treat the pets I sit for like they’re my own and treat them and the home I’m staying in with respect. I know how hard it can be to trust someone new but with me you have nothing to worry about! Can’t wait to meet your furry loved ones! I have plenty of time dedicated to your fur baby and can give your fur baby attention that you might not be able to give them with your own busy schedule:) I would not be able to care for your fur baby at my home because my dog does not get along with other animals but I would be more than happy to care for your pet at your home! I know the anxiety that can come with a stranger staying at your home but I’m more than happy to do a meet and greet :) I am very detail oriented and have no problem sticking to a schedule. Safety is my #1 concern with your pet!
About: I'm a life-long dog lover that will provide great care to your dog! I live in a great pet-friendly neighborhood, with a dog park nearby. My family has always had dogs, growing up - so I'm very comfortable around them.

“Breanna had the unfortunate duty of cleaning up a shattered glass vase one of my dogs knocked over when Breanna arrived. I appreciate her reaching out to me right away to let me know, and to also reassure me that neither dog (or she fortunately) was injured. She cleaned up the mess thoroughly, which was necessary to prevent injuries but also above and beyond. I also appreciate her continued patience with my two young and dogs. I know they are A LOT when she opens the front door. I'm really pleased to have found Breanna to take my dogs for recurring walks while I'm working. I look forward to her developing a bond with my crazy noodleheads. Highly recommended! 🥇”
“Damacia is great with our giant Schnoodle. He loves squirrels but she manages to control him. We have used her for boarding and walking and always been pleased. I would highly recommend.”
“Shannon was huge help walking our dog Nora after my foot surgery. She was responsible, communicative, and took some cute pictures of Nora during their walks! We will definitely book again.”

“Andreea was great with both of our dogs. She even got our younger pup to warm up to her quickly and explore outside of her comfort zone a bit. She has a calm yet friendly demeanor, which was perfect for our dogs.”
About: Hey there! I'm Alyn and I absolutely LOVE spending my free time with pets!! I adore both cats and dogs and have over 10 years of experience caring for many pet personalities. With my own pets, I've cared for senior pets, dogs with special medical needs, reactive dogs (my current baby), anxious cats, and playful puppies. I've also worked at an animal shelter, where | provided care, walks, and enrichment to the dogs there. I learned so much about dog/cat body language, care, health, training, and even went on to teach this to children at their educational summer camps! I'd love to be your dog's best friend and make sure they have a safe and amazing time with me while you're away! I currently have ample availability to take on new clients and provide consistent services! I'd love to help with dog walks, drop-ins, and any other care that you need!

The safety of your pets is of outmost importance to me and I pride myself in providing a safe and appropriate environment at all times. When in a client's home, I'm always sure to be mindful and adhere to the instructions agreed on prior. Rest assured your pets will be treated just as they are when you're there...well, perhaps a bit more spoiled: P
About: Hi! My name is Laura and I am a recent graduate from Virginia Tech. I have had a life-long passion for taking care of animals and hope to care for yours. Throughout my life I have cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, horses, cows, pigs, chickens, and much more! I love all animals, big and small, and am able to watch over your household pets and/or any farm pets. I have had dogs my entire life, currently a proud pup owner of my hyper, loving golden retriever, and I know all the ins and outs of canine care. I provide play-time, grooming, walks/dog park visits, food/water cleaning and replenishment, medical aid, and so much more for your pup(s). I have training experience with puppies, and can handle all temperaments. Elderly dogs hold a special place in my heart so I will ensure their safety and comfortability. No matter the age or size, I would love to care for your four-legged family member! I have a flexible schedule so I will ensure dates/times meet your needs. I provide house visits and walks any day of the week. I also have my own vehicle so reliable transportation is not an issue. I will keep your pet(s) safe at your home and/or outside by keeping them on a leash, crating if necessary or requested, keeping your doors locked at all times, and taking precautions to make sure your pet doesn’t get into anything they are not allowed to have.
About: Hi, I'm Kim! I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I'm a mom of 4 fur babies of my own and have had animals all my life. I am currently transitioning from a 13 year Nanny position into my dream job of caring for animals full time. Three years ago, I started pet sitting part-time and have gotten rave reviews and I absolutely love it!! (References available on request) My schedule is very flexible for drop-ins and overnight stays on a first come, first serve basis. I will come to your pet's home where they are most comfortable. Offering pet care services in your home, I follow the typical routine you and your pets have already established. They will keep their routine and not go through any traumatic transitions. The best part? Your fur baby is there when you get home. Your home will also have that "lived in" look. Mail will be picked up, plants watered, lights will be switched on and off, trash rolled to the curb, and any house issues that arise can be addressed. Especially for overnight or vacation services, I would love the chance to meet you and your pet(s) in your home ahead of time. I always encourage new clients to schedule a (free) 30-minute meet-and-greet before the first booking (either at your home or a public location) so that I can meet your pet(s). If I am doing a sitting or drop-in, then these are perfect for showing me where the food supplies are as well as bowls, litter box(es), and anything else that may be needed for the booking I send daily updates while you are away so your vacation is worry free. I am looking to establish a regular client base and consider pets as part of the family.
“Kelly was great with her drop in visit on my lab! She came at the time we had agreed on and event sent me a picture of my fur ball that brightened my day. She is full of energy which is a perfect match for my lab. I came home to a happy pup. We can't wait to use her services more in the future!”

“Natasha and her family took care of our dogs like they were members of their family. Other places offered our dogs to " let out" every few hours from a shed. Natasha looked after our partially deff and blind senior citizen pug and our ball obsessed boarder collie in their own home. The dogs were always around someone who could play and love on them.”
“My girls felt right at home with Cyndi their first time staying with her. They both loved her comfy dog bed and were spoiled with cookies! I would highly recommend her and will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Elizabeth was great with our needy, hyper puppy. I needed a last minute solution to watch our puppy during a work trip. He is awaiting knee surgery so he has physical limitations at the moment. Elizabeth took excellent care of him and sent frequent updates with pictures to let me know how he was doing. I will happily take Moose back to her in the future!”
“I have two small kittens that I had to leave for a week. They stayed with Riley all week and looked very content and happy in the pictures I received. Riley’s veterinary experience was also a huge peace of mind. Would recommend to anyone!”
“Matt was great with our dog for boarding and sent us lots of pictures to keep us updated throughout the stay. We would highly recommend Matt!”
“When our dogs are with Laura and DJ, we know they are be taken care of like true members of their family. We especially appreciate the special care they give to our elderly dog. It is not common to find a home where an older dog can go and to feel at ease with it.”
“Jesse has done a wonderful job taking care of my 7 year old Samoyed! He provides good photo updates, his dogs are friendly, and drop-off/pick-up is always easy. I would highly recommend, and look forward to using his services again in the future.”
“Radka and James were fantastic! Winston had a wonderful weekend at their house. There was great communication, we received multiple pictures and videos every day!”
“Rachel was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute after our original sitter canceled, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She was incredibly flexible, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made us feel at ease knowing our pups were in good hands. She also has two dogs of her own, and they got along great with ours, which made the experience even better. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Jennifer is a super sitter! Maya looked so happy and healthy when we picked her up after our Labor Day trip (5 days). I received updates and photos everyday! We were a little worried Maya wouldn’t want to come home after Jennifer took such good care of her! We will be booking with Jennifer again! Thank you Jennifer for giving Maya a loving, safe home away from home!”
“I was completely new to Rover as I’ve always been able to leave Aldo with family members he knows but the time finally came where I needed outside help. I honestly dreaded this and felt bad for having to leave Aldo behind BUT Cassandre made this process INCREDIBLY easy by providing reassurances and confidence that Aldo would be taken care of. Detailed updates on Aldo were provided through out the day along with videos/photos showing his progress of being in a new place. From the moment I dropped Aldo off to the moment I picked him up I had full confidence he was taken care of like one of their own ☺️”
“Dawn was so sweet taking care of my puppy! It was my first time leaving him for an extended period of time and Dawn made the whole experience completely stress free! I got pictures and updates 3 times a day and it was evident that Willie was having a great time :) I can’t recommend Dawn highly enough!”
“Elizabeth agreed to watch my dog last minute and was very accommodating and kind! She sent me a lot of pictures and updates and made it feel like I wasn’t even away from my pup! I definitely look forward to booking with her again.”
“Laura was fantastic! She sent updates and pictures everyday. Nellie had the most fun with Laura and her family. I loved how they really adopted Nellie into the family for the week!”
“Adam was an EXCELLECT sitter! You can tell he has the patience and passion to engage positively with your dog!!! Great customer service and communication! Would rebook again!”
