“John did an excellent job of taking care of our Puddles. He has a very welcoming home, loving demeanor, and cares deeply for the dogs he watches. John did a great job of sending daily updates and was able to give the needed medication without a problem. Highly recommend.”
“I really felt like Enzo was being taken care of the whole time I was gone. Emily was very kind and flexible with my schedule. I even got some really good professional grade pictures from her of Enzo! All around great experience.”
“Jody took amazing care of our two pups while we were gone for a long weekend. She has a wonderful setup with a fenced in yard for pups to hang out and explore. She provided over the top service feeding my pups eggs when they wouldn’t eat their food and providing a fan for when they came back inside from running around. She was a delight to deal with from start to finish and sent us pictures while we were gone as well. Highly recommend her!! Thanks again Jody!”
“Theresa was great with sending pics and updates about my Howard, who spent 3 days and nights with she and her husband Chuck. Howard was well taken care of, he enjoyed playing with their dogs, and Theresa was so sweet and accommodating. Will definitely use her for boarding again in the future!”
“Shannon and her family were great with our pups! They clearly love dogs and treated them like family. She was also extremely accommodating when our travel plans changed. She was able to watch our dogs an extra night which gave us a lot of comfort knowing they were happy and well taken care of when weather delayed our return. We will absolutely use her again.”
“Highly recommend!! Kimberly was flexible with our last minute needs and is great with communicating. We felt completely safe leaving our pup and had a great pickup too. I recommend supporting her business 100%.”
“Mosey seemed to have a great time with Taylor. She sent us several pictures, invited us for a meet and greet before we booked, and when we returned early and had a conflict on pickup time, she offered to drive him to our house across town so we didn’t have to make an extra trip! Very happy with the experience!”
“Emily is great in communicating and our Dixie loves her time with Emily. Such a wonderful experience for us to have someone who loves and cares for our girl as much as we do!”
“Love Kari! So glad I came across her profile! My dog was so comfortable with her from the moment we walked in, that I knew she would be in good hands while in her care. Will absolutely be using Kari again for future care. Thank you!”
“Samantha offered to come pick Sophie up, which I didn’t request, so that was awesome. She was also very communicative and sent a lot of photos and updates, which I appreciated a lot.”
“Coda had a great stay with Joleen. He came home all puppied out from playing and having a good ole time. Joleen is super sweet and has a heart for animals and it shows with how she loves on em. I will be letting Coda stay with her again.”
“Erin and Matthew were amazing with our medical Great Dane. They sent a daily update with a picture. Our guy is pretty nervous and they were patient with him. They administer medication daily. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience as a first time user of Rover. I would highly recommend and plan to use them again in the future!”
“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!!”
“Marah was a dream! I had to leave the state for work and then a vacation for almost three weeks. My typical sitter was unavailable and I reached out to Marah in a pinch. I can’t say enough great things! She was amazingly helpful, communicative, and welcoming. When I arrived to drop off Obi, I could tell how much knowledge she had about dogs, especially ones that may be a bit nervous with new people (like my Obi). She made me feel so comfortable, talking to me about her typical schedule, when she sends pictures, that I can reach out whenever, and about what she was noticing in my dog’s behavior as he was warming up to the new environment. She has such a warm personality and attention to detail which set me at ease. She waited with me and Obi outside until he seemed comfortable, calm, and interested enough to enter her home. This spoke SO much about her patience and ability to care for the animals she sits. Throughout the time I was gone, I received multiple pictures of Obi each night which helped me to feel at ease and was almost immediate to respond when I reached out to check in. When I picked him up, Marah gave me a wonderful synopsis of my dog’s experience with her as well as some things she noticed about his behavior (for example, she noticed he wasn’t as territorial with food as I thought he may be or how friendly he was with new people). I could tell how tired and happy my pup was from running in her large fenced in backyard with the other cute dogs she was watching. He clearly loved his stay. We will definitely return to Marah in the future. I feel so lucky to have found her!!”
“Fantastic experience. Alliyah was super supportive of my beautiful pooch. He felt right at home and blended right in with her family and family pets. She helped me out of a bind, and was able to watch him for a couple of days last minute, which was a total blessing for me! He was happy when I picked him up and was sad to leave the love that was given to him over his boarding stay. I can’t say enough good things about Alliyah as a sitter and human!! I will definitely be hiring her again and again and again. ❤️❤️”
“This was the first time we used Rover.com for our 1 year old pup. We were anxious to leave town without her, but Ashley and her family took such great care of Sadie for 5 days. She sent pictures and updates while we were away. We were so relieved that this was such a great experience and can't wait to use her serves again for our next trip.”
“Sidney took wonderful care of Scout! She was attentive, kept us updated, and sent pictures throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. We felt comfortable knowing Scout was in good hands and well cared for. We would happily recommend Sidney to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“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!”

“Aimee is amazing! She is an animal lover through and through and my dogs warmed up to her quickly. She is very responsive and communicates often with updates, concerns, pictures, and videos. I will definitely book her again and I highly recommend her.”
“Valerie has watched my kitty, Sammy, three times now. She shows up as promised and sends me photos of my sweet boy. She doesn’t hesitate to contact me with questions or to reassure that Sammy is fine. I’d recommend Valerie to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“She did a wonderful job taking care of our cats even cleaning up after our youngest who has a lot of accidents. Through the nights she visited I never worried about whether or not they were taken care of. She went out of her way to make sure everything was cleaned up including a pretty bad throw up accident. Sent pictures of my babies so I knew all my pets were okay and kept us well informed! We will be using her for any vacations from here on. Absolutely awesome sitter!”
“Selena provided outstanding care for my tortoiseshell cat, Patches. She maintained a clean litter box, ensured Patches received her meals, and handled her sassy personality with ease. I was able to travel without worry knowing Patches was well cared for.”
“Kaylyn is amazing. I had her come to my apartment because my dog has separation anxiety and Kaylyn, as always, was so loving and sweet and playful with my dog, Gigi. I would highly recommend her. I'm so happy I found a person I can trust to watch my dog kid.”
“Ashley was wonderful! Our cat needs medication so we can’t just leave him for a weekend anymore. She gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our boy was well taken care of and happy when we got home. We will be repeat clients for sure!”
“Lexi did a wonderful job looking after my two ferrets on short notice! She sent great photos and updates, and was very accommodating with their schedule and their needs. I had peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of while I was out of town.”
About: I love caring for dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m patient with dogs of all sizes and personalities and always follow feeding schedules, provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention so every dog feels at home. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week, including weekends. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I’m happy to work with different schedules and last-minute bookings whenever possible I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I take dogs on regular walks for exercise, potty breaks, and fresh air. I also provide plenty of attention, playtime, and follow the pet’s normal feeding schedule and routines. My goal is to make pets feel relaxed and at home while their owners are away.
“She was fantastic!! We have house cams and can verify that she is always timely, always respectful of our home, and was very kind and loving with my cats. I will be hiring her again for my next trip because she was worth every penny. Thank you, again!”
“Amber was wonderful. She made sure our cats were taken care of when we were out of town and even went above and beyond when the bear got into our trash. Highly recommend.”
“We have hired Lisa on more than one occasion to care for our cats because of her attention to detail, responsiveness, promptness and for the overall care she provides to our boys. She keeps us up to date during our absence with messages & photos. Upon our return the boys are happy, stress-free & healthy. I highly recommend Lisa for your sitting needs.”

“Marah was wonderful! I was just in town for the weekend and my friends and I decided last minute to go hiking and I needed a sitter for my pup. Marah said yes and I’m so glad she did! I know Benji had an awesome time playing with the other dogs there because he knocked out for the rest of the evening. I will definitely bring him back again if I’m ever back in the area!”
“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!”
“Emily & Donnie accepted a last minute booking for my new puppy & I feel like I hit the jackpot! They were so nice, accommodating, & responsive. I received pictures & videos throughout the day, which made this pup mommy's heart smile ☺️ I couldn't recommend them enough. I will definitely be using them again!”
About: I love animals of all kinds and enjoy caring for them as if they were my own. I have experience watching neighbors', friends', and family members' furry companions, and I understand how important it is to provide them with loving, reliable care. Whether it's going for walks, playing at the dog park, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection, I'll make sure your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I am available Monday threw Sunday at any time after 8am. If it’s a emergency, I will take your fur baby before 8am. I look forward to meeting your fur baby. All dogs will be on a leash when I take them out to use the bathroom. I do not have a fenced in backyard. I only crate animals if you request that and you provide your own crate. Other wise I allow all animals to roam the house freely.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.
“Wonderfully sweet and caring family. They took great care of Rex and Fluffy. Highly recommend and I will definitely use them again. Thank you for the exceptional care!”

About: I have worked at a local boarding facility for five years as Kennel Manager. I now work as the Director at a local Animal Shelter. I have experience with every breed’s personality and training on different temperaments. I have six dogs myself, so I am familiar with multi-pet households. I also have 6 years grooming experience. I have a background in training as well and offer sessions. I am home all day! I have over an acre field in the back yard for plenty of play space. My schedule is very flexible. I am educated on bloat in dogs, distressed behavior, reactivity, positive reinforcement methods, dog CPR, trained in medications and safety standards and toxins for dogs.

“This is our second time booking Marketa for Cadence's daycare while we were in town for an event. She did a great job with her 2 years ago that I immediately thought to reach out to her again when we returned this year. Marketa is attentive and caring with Cadence and sent us photo updates of how she was doing. She got along well with the other doggos and even cuddled up to her on the couch. I never have any worries about Cadence when she stayed with her, and would recommend Marketa to anyone in the neighborhood. Thank you!”
About: I began volunteering at my local animal shelter at the age of 9 and have been caring for animals ever since. I have 20 years experience pet sitting for neighbors and I have my own 6 year old pitbull, Cleo, so I’m no stranger to energetic dogs. I’m a teacher, so my summers give me full flexibility to care for your animals! I love to walk dogs on local greenways and trails. SCHOOL YEAR UPDATE: I’m still happy to provide boarding, walking, and drop in visits outside of school hours. I am unable to be home or care for pets from 7am-3pm each day. If your dog can be left for 8 hours, boarding continues to be available during the school year. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog can play. If they like to play with a buddy, my dog will be their best friend!
About: I worked for a pet walking company doing a little bit of everything. I have walked dogs (sometimes multiples) and done many drop in visits for potty breaks and play times and feedings. I have an extremely flexible and open schedule due to being a stay at home mom the last few years. I would be available for drop in services at most times. I’ve learned that owners will have their own rules and that is what would be followed at the clients house. This could be a list of things to have done in a set amount of time or rules on feeding, playing, etc. In my own home you can expect your pets to be spoiled! We let pets on furniture, have unlimited play time and we have a few friends for them here.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life & have dog sat many years for family and friends! I work from home, so have lots of time on my hands to come over and spend time with any pup- big or small. I work from home full-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule to prioritize your pet's needs. Because I’m always around, I can provide frequent potty breaks, constant supervision, and plenty of mid-day attention. Whether it’s a long walk or cuddling on the couch, your dog will never be alone for long. I have a fully fenced, secure yard and two friendly dogs of my own to keep your fur baby company. Safety is my top priority, so I always supervise outdoor play and can easily crate your dog if needed for meals or bedtime. My home is a pet-friendly environment designed to make every guest feel comfortable and safe.
“Both Taylor and Jessica are super nice people and very accommodating. We used their services for our dog and they kept her for us while we were out of town. We would definitely use them again!”
“Rebecca was just amazing and wonderful with our dogs. She took them on several walks and played with them. She sent lots of happy pictures and we knew they were in good hands!! We would highly recommend Rebecca!”
About: There have also been pets in my house and I have also made myself available to pet sit for friends and family. I am flexible in when and how to care for your smallest or largest family member. I am a runner so I would love to have a buddy join me on a run, jog, or even a walk. I can care for your pup at my house or your house which ever one you would be comfortable with. At the moment I can be open anytime of the week, and visiting houses multiple times in the day to ensure that your furry friend feelings loved and cared for throughout the day. Whether that's a potty break, a snack, or a big ole tummy rub. I’m a teacher on summer break though I do have a part time evening job that starts at 430 my husband comes home at 4 and probably loves dogs even more than me. I have a large fenced backyard and plenty of room in my house for exploring. We do have a small rescue Chihuahua, but she is friendly and very kind.
“Kaleb took great care of Presley while I went away for the day! I received pictures and videos throughout his stay, which was greatly appreciated! Presley had so much fun playing with Kaleb’s pups, he is worn out! Thank you for taking great care of my baby!!! We will be coming back!”

About: I have taken care of pets (cats, dogs and birds) all my life. I have ample experience with dogs, including puppies…we had 10 rescue puppies at one point in time! I’m super patient and accommodating with our 4 legged friends as I have 3 full sized dogs and 2 cats myself. I have a full time job but am able to provide care in the evenings and weekends. I have a fenced dog lot and 1.5 acres to walk your fur baby (leashed) as well as access to a private country road. I have three full sized dogs and two cats in my own home. My home is large enough to separate pets as needed and to allow for ample play room if everyone gets along. I can let your pets out or take them for walks at your home as well.
“I can’t say enough good things about Kaylyn B. She is always on time and keeps me posted if thing’s change. She is very easy to talk to and she treats my dog as if she is the best thing on the planet. My dog really likes her too. She greets her at the door with an excited bark and tail wagging. We are blessed to have her. I would highly recommend her to anyone, Mary”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have a lifelong love for animals. As a dog owner myself with two dogs at home, I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pets the same way you do. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, potty breaks, exercise, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also know how reassuring it is to receive updates, so I’ll send photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay or visit to give you peace of mind. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own, and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I currently do work full time but I do create my own schedule and am pretty flexible so we can work around the hours needed for you and your pet! I do currently have two male dogs who are 8 and 9 years old. They both are very friendly and very playful. They play with puppies and older dogs very well and they’re very diverse with sizes of dogs who they are around. If your dog is aggressive to other male dogs, this won’t be a good fit for you. However, i’m happy to have an introduction to make sure everyone is comfortable. We tend to take a lot of walks and play ball in the yard throughout the day. During the summer we swim in the pop up pool we have for the boys and get the zooms out!

About: I have always been an animal lover, and my job has shown me how to specially care for each and every special baby. Two years in veterinary medicine gave me the experience to confidently handle medications, diabetic care, and reactive pets. I adore even your misunderstood animals and would love to send lots of photos, videos, and updates on your pets if allowed! I currently work at a Pet Wellness Center, but my schedule is very flexible. My shifts are arranged to give me plenty of time to care for both my own pets and yours. In most cases, I can take time off if needed. I also finish work by 7 pm at the latest, so evenings are completely free if that’s what works best for you. When boarding pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where each animal feels at ease. I give plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles, and follow any specific routines or instructions from their owners. I also make sure they get proper meals, medication if needed, and regular bathroom breaks. I live in a very rural, quiet part of Bedford in the middle of the woods, so along with a large yard, we have many trails, with plenty of space to run or go on leashed walks! I love sending updates with photos or videos so you can see your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi there! My name is Ashtyn! My whole life has been filled with animals! Growing up, I had a Yellow Lab, Dawson, and Maine Coon, Zeke. Sadly, they went to doggy and kitty heaven when I was around 10🥺 In November of 2023, I lost my sweet Treeing-Walker Coonhound named, Maverick. He was as feisty as they come! Now, my boyfriend & I spend our time loving on his pup, Bella, a Pitbull/Alaskan Malamute mix. Although I got connected on Rover in 2023, I have taken care of all different dog breeds from small to large over the past 6 years. Many of them have been in this area, while some were down in West Palm Beach, Florida when I lived there! I have several families that I house and dog sit for regularly! Since I am in my Senior year of college, spending quality time and providing the proper care for your pups or cats will not be an issue! Dog-sitting is my method of income, currently. Therefore, I am available almost every day! ◡̈ I prefer to care for your pet in the home that they are used to! That being said, I can stay at your home overnight, just during the day, or come over intermittently for walks!
About: Hi everyone! I am currently in school to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician, and right now this is my full time job! So I am very flexible when it comes to last minute jobs or even long term jobs! I have years of experience working as a Veterinary Assistant and have grown up on a farm where I have cared for pets all the way from ferrets to horses! I’m here for any of your pets needs! I have experience in disabled pets, giving meds, or even just getting your high energy dog out to play! This is my full time job so I am very flexible! Because of that I usually have several bookings at once but am always sure to spread things out to make sure everyone is cared for! I do not like to do overnight stays but if it works into my schedule I can, just message me and we can plan accordingly! I will care for your pet in your home and mine the same way you would! I will follow any and all instructions given! I will keep a clean space!
About: I’ve always had pets from dogs, cats, goats, hamsters, and ducks. I love all animals & believe they all deserve kindness & compassion. I love caring for my pets & spending time with them. They are more then just pets to me, they are my family and I am so grateful to have them in my life. I promise to care for your pets as I would my own; with patience, kindness, and respect. ❤️ I am currently working part-time (25 hours) so I can usually adjust my schedule to your needs. I am available to stay over night or visit multiple times a day. My home is an apartment. I keep a very clean environment as I highly value a clean living space. I have my own cats, two sweet spayed females. They along well with other pets but Nyx will usually tend to hide away from most visitors human or animal. Kaya, however, loves new friend rather that’s a cat or a dog. I frequently clean up after my pet daily, and keep two bowls of water I refresh for her daily. I keep a safe environment for my pet and I will treat your pet with the same great care.
About: Owned a dog since forever. Currently have 2 shelties-3yrs and 1yrs old. But have taken care of dogs all breeds, sizes, ages, and stages of life. I am currently taking a break from my career to reset, recharge, and just enjoy life with my 2 young Shelties. Daily we walk, run, play. It is part of our life. Cat wise my cats care is part of our daily routine. I spoil them and have cat trees in windows for them to watch the neighborhood and provide them with all their favorite toys. Walking and drop in service wise- let me know times, dates, ways to enter the house. If able I would love to bring my dogs to join. If not that is fine. I am willing to walk as much and as long as needed. Drop in share what you need and I will help. I can also give medications if needed.

“John did an excellent job of taking care of our Puddles. He has a very welcoming home, loving demeanor, and cares deeply for the dogs he watches. John did a great job of sending daily updates and was able to give the needed medication without a problem. Highly recommend.”
“Jody took amazing care of our two pups while we were gone for a long weekend. She has a wonderful setup with a fenced in yard for pups to hang out and explore. She provided over the top service feeding my pups eggs when they wouldn’t eat their food and providing a fan for when they came back inside from running around. She was a delight to deal with from start to finish and sent us pictures while we were gone as well. Highly recommend her!! Thanks again Jody!”
“Theresa was great with sending pics and updates about my Howard, who spent 3 days and nights with she and her husband Chuck. Howard was well taken care of, he enjoyed playing with their dogs, and Theresa was so sweet and accommodating. Will definitely use her for boarding again in the future!”
“Shannon and her family were great with our pups! They clearly love dogs and treated them like family. She was also extremely accommodating when our travel plans changed. She was able to watch our dogs an extra night which gave us a lot of comfort knowing they were happy and well taken care of when weather delayed our return. We will absolutely use her again.”
“Highly recommend!! Kimberly was flexible with our last minute needs and is great with communicating. We felt completely safe leaving our pup and had a great pickup too. I recommend supporting her business 100%.”
“Mosey seemed to have a great time with Taylor. She sent us several pictures, invited us for a meet and greet before we booked, and when we returned early and had a conflict on pickup time, she offered to drive him to our house across town so we didn’t have to make an extra trip! Very happy with the experience!”
“Emily is great in communicating and our Dixie loves her time with Emily. Such a wonderful experience for us to have someone who loves and cares for our girl as much as we do!”
“Samantha offered to come pick Sophie up, which I didn’t request, so that was awesome. She was also very communicative and sent a lot of photos and updates, which I appreciated a lot.”
“Coda had a great stay with Joleen. He came home all puppied out from playing and having a good ole time. Joleen is super sweet and has a heart for animals and it shows with how she loves on em. I will be letting Coda stay with her again.”
“Erin and Matthew were amazing with our medical Great Dane. They sent a daily update with a picture. Our guy is pretty nervous and they were patient with him. They administer medication daily. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience as a first time user of Rover. I would highly recommend and plan to use them again in the future!”
“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!!”
“Marah was a dream! I had to leave the state for work and then a vacation for almost three weeks. My typical sitter was unavailable and I reached out to Marah in a pinch. I can’t say enough great things! She was amazingly helpful, communicative, and welcoming. When I arrived to drop off Obi, I could tell how much knowledge she had about dogs, especially ones that may be a bit nervous with new people (like my Obi). She made me feel so comfortable, talking to me about her typical schedule, when she sends pictures, that I can reach out whenever, and about what she was noticing in my dog’s behavior as he was warming up to the new environment. She has such a warm personality and attention to detail which set me at ease. She waited with me and Obi outside until he seemed comfortable, calm, and interested enough to enter her home. This spoke SO much about her patience and ability to care for the animals she sits. Throughout the time I was gone, I received multiple pictures of Obi each night which helped me to feel at ease and was almost immediate to respond when I reached out to check in. When I picked him up, Marah gave me a wonderful synopsis of my dog’s experience with her as well as some things she noticed about his behavior (for example, she noticed he wasn’t as territorial with food as I thought he may be or how friendly he was with new people). I could tell how tired and happy my pup was from running in her large fenced in backyard with the other cute dogs she was watching. He clearly loved his stay. We will definitely return to Marah in the future. I feel so lucky to have found her!!”
“Fantastic experience. Alliyah was super supportive of my beautiful pooch. He felt right at home and blended right in with her family and family pets. She helped me out of a bind, and was able to watch him for a couple of days last minute, which was a total blessing for me! He was happy when I picked him up and was sad to leave the love that was given to him over his boarding stay. I can’t say enough good things about Alliyah as a sitter and human!! I will definitely be hiring her again and again and again. ❤️❤️”
“This was the first time we used Rover.com for our 1 year old pup. We were anxious to leave town without her, but Ashley and her family took such great care of Sadie for 5 days. She sent pictures and updates while we were away. We were so relieved that this was such a great experience and can't wait to use her serves again for our next trip.”
“Sidney took wonderful care of Scout! She was attentive, kept us updated, and sent pictures throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. We felt comfortable knowing Scout was in good hands and well cared for. We would happily recommend Sidney to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“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!”
“We highly recommend David! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our dog, Olive, for a whole week with someone we didn't know. After meeting David, our fears dissipated and we felt pretty confident that Olive would enjoy her stay. David has a calm, gentle demeanor, and Olive seemed relaxed around him from the beginning. We enjoyed the daily pictures of Olive that he texted to us. We will definitely ask David again if we need someone to watch our dog!”
“Katie and her family were great and took good care of Walter. They were very accommodating with drop off and pick up times and sent update photos regularly. We will definitely book again with them.”
