My dogs were clearly comfortable and happy with her. Alliyah is friendly, professional, and follows instructions carefully. Your dogs are in great hands with her!”
“Joleen was great!!! Highly recommend!! When I dropped Ellie off she seemed so happy and pleased immediately with where she was. Throughout Ellie’s stay Joleen was great with keeping me updated and sending plenty of pics of how happy Ellie was with all of her new friends! I am very thankful that Ellie had such a positive experience.”

“Jessica did an excellent job caring for my dog Rupi. She took Rupi on long walks every day and sent pictures/updates regularly. I would highly recommend Jessica.”
“Casey and her family took exceptional care of my fur baby Scottie. She sent pictures and updates through out his stay. Scottie was in amazing hands and his routines were kept up with (much needed for his age). They even made the sweetest note cards for me at pick up. Drop off and pick up was great. Thank you Casey and family! ♥️”
“After four or five meet and greets, Crystal was the only one our little girl gelled with! She is sweet and kind and treated our pup with the special care she needed. We are SO pleased and thankful for Crystal!”

Well, what turned into two weeks turned into four weeks total and Chantel was very gracious to keep my two dogs for another two weeks, which was quite unexpected. Chantel did a very good job in meeting their needs and keeping me informed of how they were doing. I would highly recommend Chantel in the future.”

“Hillary and her family are amazing! We live about 40 minutes away, but as soon as we got there, we immediately felt like their land was a perfect place for dogs to play. So, it was worth the drive! Hillary was so kind and her kids were very friendly. Daisy felt comfortable in their home right away. She had another puppy staying there over the weekend and her own dog Joshua. I was a little worried about how my puppy would do with other dogs and children, but seeing her play with them before I left was so comforting. Hillary has a background in puppy training and I could tell just by how she interacted with Daisy and the other pup. Hillary was great with communication and sent pictures every day! Daisy always looked happy and having a wonderful time! Most of the time, when I send Daisy somewhere, I feel sad knowing she’ll spend the majority of the time in a crate, but this was the complete opposite! Daisy basically got a vacation while we were gone. Haha. Thank you, Hillary! We really appreciate you!”
“First let me just start off by saying Mary and her family are too cute! They welcomed my little Topaz as if he were their own! You can feel the energy of her home warm and inviting, her dog is very sweet as well. She updated me with pics quite often and she even game him a bath before I picked him back up! I would highly recommend her and would definitely re use her if ever I needed care services in the future! Thank you guys for being so awesome!”

“Abigail did a fantastic job dropping in on my kitties. She was prompt each day and even scheduled a meet and greet with them. I am very satisfied. My babies were well cared for and I will use Abigail again for future bookings.”
About: I had this one male cat that an wild animal hurt. I had to give him an antibiotic twice daily and change the bandage daily. I set with him for hours because I did not want him to be scared. The hardest thing I ever had to do was be with my cat of 11 years when he had to be euthanized. I didn't want him to be afraid,this was so hard to do. Anyway I will give your baby all you would give.
“We are very thankful for Isa! Not only did she make herself available without much notice, but her professionalism, ,skill and kindness as she interacts with animals and their parents is what we all hope to find in a pet sitter. When we do find such a gem, we want to stay connected to such a wonderful person who takes such good care of our baby. We found a wonderful sitter last year who always takes care of our girl, but sometimes our last-minute request find her not available. We never thought we could ever find someone to trust since our usual sitter goes so above and beyond. I’m so thankful to be proven wrong by finding Isa! Thank you, Isa for taking care of our little old girl. She was very happy and secure and your photography of her will always be treasured! We hope that you’ll be available for future visits.”
About: I’m a dependable and patient caregiver who understands that every cat has a different personality and comfort level. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, refreshing water and litter, providing playtime and affection, and respecting cats who prefer extra space. My background working with behavior and routines has made me observant, calm, and consistent. I’ll treat your cat like family and send updates so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: Clara is my first cat, and I’ve raised her since she was a kitten. She came litter-box trained, but I’ve kept up with regular cleaning and deep-cleaning to keep her space fresh and comfortable. When she was spayed, I handled her after-care and medication, so I’m comfortable giving meds and supporting cats through recovery. I love keeping her happy and stimulated, so I’m always rotating toys and creating fun ways for her to play. Caring for Clara has taught me a lot about feline routines, body language, and the little details that make cats feel safe and loved.
“Amber was amazing! She took great care of my girl and she truly made her feel safe and loved while I was away. She handled everything so well and provided great care for my sweet girl. I got pictures, videos, and updates all within a timely manner. Would 100% recommend Amber to anyone!”
“Ainsley was amazing! She took great care of our cat while we were out of town, sent us pictures, and even washed our sheets and vacuumed before we returned. It is so great not having to worry about Ollie while we are out of town. Would definitely recommend Ainsley for any pet sitting you need, she is great!”

I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Heather was an excellent sitter for my three cats — Prince Mittens, Sunny Sunshine, and Midnight Moon. Her calm, gentle demeanor made a big difference for Sunny and Midnight, who can be shy, and she was patient, letting them warm up at their own pace. She communicated clearly, sent updates and photos, and even made time for a live video call so I could see and talk to my fur babies. She also did a great job house-sitting, leaving everything clean and in perfect shape. I would absolutely book Heather again without hesitation — she’s calm, reliable, and truly cares for your pets, and I highly recommend her to anyone with shy or sensitive cats.”
About: I have extensive experience with cats! I grew up with cats, foster/rescue, but have received most of my cat experience in the veterinary field. I am also great at getting cats to take pills! I’m basically part magic! I also have zero fear of angry cats. They are usually just misunderstood.

About: I have been caring for animals for my entire life and have always adored learning about them and working with them. I will care for any kind of animal of any temperament and will provide an abundance of love, as caring for pets is very fulfilling for me and improves my mental wellbeing :) I am currently working as a vet assistant and will try to update my Rover schedule each month around my schedule at the vet. I am able to take pets into my workplace if you need me on days I work and are comfortable with that. I am extremely respectful of owners’ homes and will care for the pets exactly as I am asked to. I do not mind assertive or otherwise difficult temperament and will love them all the same. I will ensure to be constantly attentive and focused on meeting their needs and keeping them safe.
“Marketa and Jay took such good care of our little girl Luna this week! Marketa was really great about sending updates throughout the day. Luna and her dog Roscoe got along great, and I love that there is a large fully fenced outdoor space for her to run around in and get her energy out. I highly recommend Marketa if you're looking for a responsible and caring sitter for your pup!”
“Let me say that I cannot thank Falen enough for her care of Sassy. She was gracious when my work threw me a curveball and changed my hours. She sent positive messages and pictures. Sassy came home calm and tired. We are very grateful for her service and will definitely contact her again for sitting services.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life, and even spend time taking care of others homes and dogs as well. I love to get outside and be active seeing as I am a college athlete and have no problem running around with animals and caring and loving for them when you are not able to do it. I truly love animals and have such compassion for them that I love to take care of them. I am a teacher, and love to board dogs during the weeks. They keep me active in days that I am working. I would love to talk to you more about your dogs needs, I hope that we are a perfect match and I will be able to help you take care of your animals!
“Kari has been so kind and amazing in accommodating our very anxious dog and working with us to ease her in to feeling comfortable being away from home! We’re so thankful we found her and highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. From housetraining puppies to caring for aging senior dogs, I have experience with a range of personalities/quirks and am very comfortable with large or hyperactive dogs and rescues. My older Beagle, who I cared for for more than 13 years, had a seizure disorder and in the final months of her life, we administered IV sub-Q fluids to her every 2-3 days, so I have experience with caring for pups with medical needs and I can administer medication. I also have 5 years of experience volunteering in a high-volume animal shelter, working predominantly with large dogs, so I understand how animals might behave when they are in a stressful environment and interacting with an unfamiliar person. I strive to provide a stress-free, comforting environment while you are away so please let me know what your pup loves the most! What you can expect: — Time outdoors, playing or on leashed walks — Cuddles and belly rubs — Lots of (approved) treats — Every effort to stick to your pet’s routine and establish clear boundaries! I can provide in-home doggy day care and boarding with a prior meet and greet* if your dog gets along with the two dogs in our home. Your pup will never be left alone with my dogs when I’m providing doggy day care or boarding, so I do require them to be crate-trained for overnight stays. I work full-time from home during the week but have a very flexible schedule. I can provide morning walks, drop in visits and afternoon playtime before lots of attention in the evening. My partner is also home most days and our 15-year-old stepson is home in the afternoons and evenings (and weekends), though he is not involved in any animal care. I can board one to two dogs (from the same household) in my home if they are crate-trained, but a meet and greet is required beforehand. They will not be left alone in my home with my pups unattended. I am available for drop-in visits and some housesitting. I am open to long-term, ongoing schedules as well as flexible, on-the-spot drop-ins. I can provide some services in my own home most days of the week. I am open to spending as much time as I can with your pup. I enjoy walks, playing outdoors and sticking to their routine as much as possible! I know it can be stressful for pets when their owners are gone so I strive to provide a stress-free experience for your best friend! I will use your standard equipment and follow all directions you provide, especially on walks. I have experience with escape artists and will do everything I can to keep your pup safe. I also am very neat and tidy, will clean up any messes your pet makes and will treat your space with respect.
“Jennifer was great with our 4.5 month old puppy. She took him outside enough that there were no accidents. Her dog and our puppy played endlessly. He slept great at night. This was his first time away. She was extremely flexible with our schedule. I highly recommend Jennifer!”
“Absolutely wonderful from the very first day. My little man can't wait to go to daycare every day! Chantal has a caring and and loving manner with dogs of all ages. HIGHLY recommend!”
“Emily and Donnie were, again, absolutely fantastic! I accidentally messed up the dates I requested, and they were so accommodating. I was out of town for the wholeeeee day, leaving very early and returning extremely late, and they kept him safe and very happy the entire time! Updates were frequently and detailed, which is great for this helicopter pet parent! 1000x would recommend to anyone looking for top-tier pet care!”
About: I have 1 of my own dogs who lives with me. But I also have experience with a total of 4 dogs as my parents have 3. All are Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I am comfortable with all medium and small size dogs. I do request that they are house trained. I like to take dogs on walks but if they are smaller it is okay if they are not perfect at walking on a leash. I can even help work with them on that. I currently work a normal day job during the week. But I work remote, that means that the dogs would not be alone at all during the day. They would have someone to care for them, take them out and feed them if necessary. Every day it is not raining, I do go on a 1 mile walk with my dog on my lunch so that they get good exercise. HOUSE SITTING: I can work remote from your house providing care all day. However, my dog Charlie would also have to come with me. If this is something that you do not feel comfortable with, I can offer drop in help instead. I have 1 of my own dogs (Charlie) who lives with me full time. My apartment is fully equipped for a dog to be here safely. I have a balcony where the dogs can spend time enjoying the fresh air. My dog gets along with all other dogs and is very friendly as he used to go to daycare with many other dogs. I have the ability to walk the dogs, get them fresh air and exercise. I also have dog toys and bones available for them to use. Dogs are allowed in all areas of my place. Including the couch, dog beds and human beds. Allowing them to be where they feel the most comfortable.
“Miso loves to stay with Ariane and Olive! She has a nice and clean space. Miso always came home tired but happy as they had good time playing together. Miso was in her heat and Ariane was so nice that she accommodated my requests to make sure Miso is healthy and we're not having any unintended puppies! Ariane sent photos everyday and let you know how your doggie did everyday. She's a great sitter and I've already had Miso's daycare booked with her for next week!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since as long as I can remember. My family considers me reliable when they need help or information on their beloved companion, as well. I’m a natural with all animals/plants and will continue to care for them, as my long time career and hobby ^_^ I’m a college student and worker, but am free throughout the week due to my flexible schedule. I’m available whenever I am needed and/or wanted to take care of pets and plants. Your pet will be welcomed and loved in my household. My family is absolutely awed whenever their are animals around and we treat every one of them with care. There will be toys and treats available for your pet to choose from and play with because your pet should get the most love it deserves. If wanted, I’m able to take your pet out to places that they love, such as on walks, at parks, and even a store that’s pet friendly (:
“Layman was a lifesaver when we needed a last minute dog sitter to attend our son’s graduation. She was flexible with the timing of our return as we knew traffic could be bad getting back. Our Bella seemed comfortable with Layna and got along with her dog Chance.”
“Crystal did a great job caring for our two dogs Max and Cody. She and her family obviously loved dogs and our two took to her immediately. Her place was great and the dogs were able to spend time outdoors. She gave us a worry free day. Highly recommended.”
“Thankful to have found such a great pet sitter to watch my puppy for the day! I knew my pup Arlo was in good hands and he would have a great time. The cute pictures throughout the day were a bonus. It’s so nice to have a reliable, responsible pet sitter who clearly loves and cares about dogs. Thanks, Kaylee!”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 6 and I’ve had a pup of my own for almost 10 years! I’m here for all your dogs needs including walks, playtime, cuddles, meals, medications (if needed) and, of course, love! I want your dogs to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away and I don’t want YOU to miss a thing which is why I’ll send plenty of pictures of your fur-babies!

I want to learn all about what your animals love! From your dogs favorite chew toy to your cats favorite sunny nap spot.

I will follow any schedules/instructions you provide me including meal plans, playtime, medications (if needed), walks, etc. I will also keep the space as clean as I found it so you don’t have to worry about messes or any other stress when you return!
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover with years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I grew up with two dogs and have been consistently walking and caring for pets from middle school through college. I also worked at a doggy daycare, where I gained experience handling multiple dogs, maintaining routines, and making sure every pet felt safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, hardworking, and reliable, and I truly love spending time with animals. I have a very flexible schedule and can usually accommodate a variety of days and times throughout the week. I enjoy spending time with animals and make pet care a priority in my routine, whether that means feeding, playtime, walks, check-ins, or overnight care. I’m dependable, responsive, and committed to making sure your pets get plenty of attention and care while you’re away. I always focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to make them feel secure and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, I’ll follow all routines and instructions closely and make sure they receive lots of attention, patience, and love.
“An excellent walker, doesn't mind that the dog walks come with an additional (injured) human, extra helpful and overall a great experience for both me and Loki 10/10 would recommend”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for over 3 years now. I can do various things including walking and bathing almost any dog. Taking care of dogs is my job and I love it! My work schedule is pretty flexible so I am able to do walks/drop ins pretty frequently throughout any day of the week. My best times would be before 12 and after 7 but I can typically do times in between as well with enough notice I would care for your pet in any way necessary by following any instructions you can give me. With my experience, I know how to keep dogs safe and happy!
“Abigail is wonderful! This was my first time with Rover, and she made it easy. She came over for a meet and greet, sent me updates, and took great care of my crazy babies.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with — and cared for — pets of all shapes and sizes, from dogs and cats to fish, birds, horses, rodents, and even reptiles. No matter who your furry (or scaly!) family member is, I’m excited to give them the same love and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my day. I take care of my cat every morning and evening—making sure she has fresh water, the right amount of food, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime. Since I’m already in a daily rhythm of caring for pets, adding walks or drop-ins fits easily and naturally into my routine. At home, my kitten is always the first one to greet me at the door, so I make sure she gets attention and reassurance right away. I keep her routine consistent—fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and lots of playtime and affection. When caring for a client’s pets, I’m very mindful of their established routines. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions exactly as given. I want every pet to feel comfortable and secure, so I do my best to maintain the rhythm they’re used to. Whether it’s my home or yours, my priority is making sure pets feel safe, understood, and well cared for.
“Heather always does a great job with our pup! Due to my ongoing changing schedule, I often reach out to her the night before I am in need of her service. She remains flexible with times and is great with communication!”
About: I have six years of experience caring for dogs, including my own and pets belonging to friends and family. I’m dependable, patient, and comfortable following each dog’s individual routine. I can provide walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention while keeping owners updated with photos. My background in behavior has also taught me to remain calm, observant, and consistent with every pet. I work Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., so I’m available for evening visits during the week and have more flexible availability on weekends. I’ll always confirm timing in advance to ensure your pet receives dependable, unrushed care. I will follow your cat’s normal routine and all care instructions closely. I’ll keep doors and windows secure, refresh food and water, clean the litter box, provide playtime or quiet companionship, and send regular photo updates after each visit.
About: My specialty is where I’ve worked at different animal shelters over the past 5 years and have abundant behavioral and medical experience with multiple types of dogs and cats! I’m very consent based on petting and have a soft spot for socialization of anxious animals. Your pets will be in loving caring hands at all times!! I have a full time job that runs until evening when I’m working, but can still do any drop in visits or overnight pet sitting. I have 2 week days off that I can use for your pets as needed which can include dog walks or house sitting! I have lots of experience with dogs from my work in animal shelters and am comfortable with multiple temperaments. With my work as a vet assistant, I’m trained in monitoring the health and wellbeing of dogs and cats and am very skilled in medication administration. I would also prefer to meet your dogs/cats once or twice before we are on our own so that they can be comfortable around me in their homes!

About: I stand out because I combine years of hands‑on pet care with formal training in progress. At home I care for a playful 9‑month‑old pup, a tiny 18‑year‑old chihuahua, plus beetles and bearded dragons—so I’m experienced with both energetic puppies and delicate seniors, as well as exotic pets. My dedication to animals has led me to pursue a future in the pet care service field. I have earned many certificates for animal care such as certification for Working with Dogs and Pet First Aid / CPR. I’m available Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. -5 p.m. for dog walks, and during those hours I’m fully devoted to caring for your pets. While I balance family life with a child at home, pet care is truly part of my everyday routine—24/7 with my own animals—so giving reliable, loving attention to yours fits naturally into my schedule. I am a very “by the book” person who values safety, respect, and trust above all else. If I enter a client’s home, I make sure to only do what I am hired to do, treating both your pets and your space with the utmost care. My years of experience as a housekeeper taught me how important it is to be trustworthy and respectful of others’ belongings, and I carry those same standards into pet care. Loving animals is one of my core morals, and I would never jeopardize my family, my work, or your trust.
“Laura has been wonderful with walking my rather high maintenance pups. I don't know how I would have made it through the holidays without her help. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and flexible. She always takes the time to show my babies special love and affection and that has meant the world to me. Thank you Laura!”
“Kaylee was amazing! She responded quickly and stayed in touch with me each day of her visit. She has patience with shy pets, and my dog warmed right up to her after the first walk. Definitely would use her again!”

I can do drop in visits as well as in home or public access training! I treat every animal with respect for their individual needs! From a simple visit with basic obedience to advanced training and behavior-I’m here to help!
About: I've cared for and loved animals my whole life. I grew up on a small horse farm in the country. I love any and all types of animals! Dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, birds, pocket pets, you name it! I'm not picky. I started working at my old neighbors boarding and grooming place at the age of 12. Thats when I started learning about dog behavior. Since then I have worked & volunteered at multiple animal related places, Doggy daycare, local animal shelters, multiple pet sitting jobs & have worked at my current job at the emergency vet since 2016. Im very flexible in my day to day care. Even on days I work long hours I can still check on your pet a minimum of 3 times a day. Some days I don’t work until night and I have off every other weekend. Message me and we can work something out! I currently work at the local emergency animal hospital. I am in school to become a licensed veterinary technician. Your fur baby would be in great, knowable hands. I’m familiar with crate trained animals, & Ones that have special needs also. I read animal body language very well & can often figure out what is best for their comfort and safety.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. As a teacher, I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive to routines and details. I know how important consistency is, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I look after. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and cuddle, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I know leaving your pet with someone else takes trust, and I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind by providing reliable, loving care and keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay or visit. I’m currently on summer break, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I’m happy to work with your schedule and provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. During the school year, my availability is typically in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and school breaks. I’ll always communicate my schedule clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive to routines, follow any instructions you provide, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: I've taken care of pets since I was 6 years old. I love horses, snakes, wild life. I was a dog sitter!

“Caroline and Spencer were amazing with our Newfie baby!! Quake absolutely loved the lake and the pictures of him having so much fun gave us great peace of mind! I know he was happy to see us but I could tell he didn't want to leave! Thank you again for taking such great care of our big baby boy!!”
“Alliyah watched my two whippet boys for an overnight trip and everything went very smoothly. She sent regular updates and photos throughout the stay, which really put my mind at ease. My dogs were clearly comfortable and happy with her. Alliyah is friendly, professional, and follows instructions carefully. Your dogs are in great hands with her!”
“Joleen was great!!! Highly recommend!! When I dropped Ellie off she seemed so happy and pleased immediately with where she was. Throughout Ellie’s stay Joleen was great with keeping me updated and sending plenty of pics of how happy Ellie was with all of her new friends! I am very thankful that Ellie had such a positive experience.”
“Our pup stayed with Marketa for a few nights while we were out of town. She was very communicative, sending lots of updates and pictures which we loved. Our pup seemed to be very comfortable at her house and came home happy!”
“Jessica did an excellent job caring for my dog Rupi. She took Rupi on long walks every day and sent pictures/updates regularly. I would highly recommend Jessica.”
“Casey and her family took exceptional care of my fur baby Scottie. She sent pictures and updates through out his stay. Scottie was in amazing hands and his routines were kept up with (much needed for his age). They even made the sweetest note cards for me at pick up. Drop off and pick up was great. Thank you Casey and family! ♥️”
“Kasalyn was absolutely wonderful. She took great care of Addyson and Addyson had a great time. Kasalyn was very kind, made me feel comfortable and eased my mind about leaving my baby. She also send lots of awesome pictures and updates. Thanks for all you did Kasalyn😊”
“Hillary and her family are amazing! We live about 40 minutes away, but as soon as we got there, we immediately felt like their land was a perfect place for dogs to play. So, it was worth the drive! Hillary was so kind and her kids were very friendly. Daisy felt comfortable in their home right away. She had another puppy staying there over the weekend and her own dog Joshua. I was a little worried about how my puppy would do with other dogs and children, but seeing her play with them before I left was so comforting. Hillary has a background in puppy training and I could tell just by how she interacted with Daisy and the other pup. Hillary was great with communication and sent pictures every day! Daisy always looked happy and having a wonderful time! Most of the time, when I send Daisy somewhere, I feel sad knowing she’ll spend the majority of the time in a crate, but this was the complete opposite! Daisy basically got a vacation while we were gone. Haha. Thank you, Hillary! We really appreciate you!”
“First let me just start off by saying Mary and her family are too cute! They welcomed my little Topaz as if he were their own! You can feel the energy of her home warm and inviting, her dog is very sweet as well. She updated me with pics quite often and she even game him a bath before I picked him back up! I would highly recommend her and would definitely re use her if ever I needed care services in the future! Thank you guys for being so awesome!”
“Katie is wonderful. She watched our 11 month old puppy with the most loving care. We were so nervous about leaving our new puppy, but felt so comfortable with her. Highly recommended.”
“Falen and her wonderful family were so good to my Thor. She provided excellent updates with pictures and her communication kept my mind at ease. I am absolutely going to use her again. Thanks so much, Falen!!!!”
“We had a great experience with John and his wife. They kept us informed and our dogs clearly had a great time and were well cared for. They have lots of backyard space for our dogs to run which they need.”
“Allison was an excellent communicator while coordinating our pup's day care and was absolutely flexible to help us with our out-of-towner schedule, and was wonderfully attentive to our pup during his stay. Great first experience using Rover - I would recommend Allison for anyone looking for a caring dogsitter!!”
“Eleni and her family were amazing!! I left Louis with them for a month and then another week. He came back very happy and was happy to see them when I dropped him off a second time. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I know I can trust Eleni to watch Louis whenever needed!”
