“Kira was fantastic with Darmeen! She kept me updated throughout the stay with how she was doing, which gave me peace of mind. She also went above and beyond by offering helpful tips for managing Darmeen’s pawlicking issue. I highly recommend her and will definitely trust her with my dog again!”
“Our pup, Olive, had a great time! Lots of great photos. We felt confident leaving our girl with Suzanne and would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“I left my dog with John for 10 days, and I couldn’t be happier with the care he provided. John kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear he truly cares about the dogs he looks after. I’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

“It was our first time using Rover, but had a 2.5 week vacation planned overseas and wanted our dog to stay in a home environment. Justin was super easy to communicate with, always responding very quickly. He and his family gave our dog a home away from home. He sent daily updates with photos and kindly responded to all of my inquiries. When we picked up our dog, he seemed like he had been really well cared for. Thank you, Justin for making our first Rover experience a great one!”
“Riitta and Rudy provided exceptional care for our dog, ensuring he felt completely at home. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed his time with their dogs and even acquired new skills from them. They treated our dog as their own, providing daily updates with numerous photos and videos. Their consideration for our dog's individual behavior was particularly reassuring and demonstrated a high level of attentiveness. We would definitely utilize their services again when needed.”
“Elizabeth was amazing with our reactive dog Chicken. She is extremely kind, communicative, and reliable. Chicken is an Aussie and they can be selective with new people and she did great with Elizabeth and her family. She sent regular updates and photos which was super helpful. I can tell Chicken feels really comfortable and well taken care of when she’s at Elizabeth’s.”
“Stacey and her family did a wonderful job taking care of our two year old English Springer Spaniel. I loved that they had a big fenced yard and that he had a lot of outside time, and we received a few photo updates over the weekend. Will definitely use Stacey and Taylor again!”
“Sheena took great care of my dog, Uno. She handled introductions between Uno and her own dog really well. She updated me with photos, and Uno looked like he was having a great time. It was clear he was in good hands and well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Sheena to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter.”
“Nova had a fantastic time at Sukanya's place. The communication was top-notch from the very beginning, with regular updates, pictures, and videos that kept us informed about Nova's stay. We had a great meet and greet, and Sukanya's home was clean and had a lovely backyard. Nova got along wonderfully with their dog, and we'd definitely seek their help again whenever we're away. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience.”
“My dog had a good time at Sunmee and Patrick’s. He made good friend with their dog Winter. Sunmee, Patrick and their lovely son took good care of Nui and kept me updated with videos and pictures. I look forward to booking NUI’s next stay with them.”
“Teri was awesome with Louie. Attentive and caring for our lil guy, his quirks and routines. She sent us daily photos and updates which our son loved (and asked for). She absolutely helped ease our minds leaving our pet with someone else and wouldn't hesitate using her services in the future.”
“Liz is the absolute best sitter for our difficult and anxious dog! We will absolutely continue coming back to Liz as long as she will have us! Liz was experienced with handling our dog's behavioral challenges, met with us twice before our stay to help our dog acclimate, followed our extensive and complicated instructions including medications and feeding, took great pictures, and was happy to continue using the training philosophy that we follow during our dog's stay. She is very responsive, friendly and accommodating to all of our needs and our dog's needs. She took amazing care of our dog and really went above and beyond. We are so grateful to have found Liz!”
“Jenny was amazing with our Ellie! She sent me photos and messages about how Ellie was doing and what they did every day. I felt completely confident that Ellie was being well cared for while we were out of town. Jenny was always quick to reply to messages and a very kind hearted person. I will definitely request Jenny again and recommend her to all of our friends and family.”
“Our dog Zuzu loves coming to stay with Julie! She's always well taken care of and gets lots of play and cuddles 💕 and we get regular photos and updates, and peace of mind while out of town”
“Rebecca is absolutely fantastic! She is reliable, organized, competent, a dog whisperer, and gives our pup lots of love and walks. She provides videos and email updates. Would highly recommend.”
“This is our pup’s first stay with Rover, and we had concerns about potential separation anxiety because he is very attached to us. However Masumi was very patient and experienced. She took great care of our pup, and her detailed updates certainly soothed our concerns. We are so glad that we had our pup stay with her.”
“Charlie had a wonderful stay with Nickey and we are so grateful we found her. She is a pro! It is so nice to be able to travel with the peace of mind that he is happy and well taken care of by someone who is so kind and I invested in his well- being. We couldn’t be happier!”

“Cameron did an amazing job of drop-ins for my cat. He provided very detailed info about each visit and some really amazing photos, too! I knew after the first visit that I could rest easy and that my cat was in good hands and would be well taken care of- and he was! I looking forward to having Cameron do drop ins in the future!”
“Hope was timely in her visits and communicating to us each day. We felt that our babies were in good hands and that we didn’t miss anything!!! Highly recommend this lovely young lady!!! Thank you Hope!!!”
“Amber and Barb did drop in visits for our cats while we were away for a couple of days. The cats and our home were well taken care of! They communicated well. It was nice to get some photos of the cats while we were away. We have a bit of a complicated set up for feeders and litter boxes and they were able to handle it with no issues. I would definitely hire them again!”
About: I’ve been around cats my whole life. I don’t think there’s ever been a time where we didn’t have a cat in our family since I was born. Besides taking care of my own cats, I started cat sitting for others by the time I was 13. I understand that every cat is different and how to carer to their needs and personality.
“Paige was amazing with our two cats and bunny! She also was so helpful when our bunny kept escaping the room and provided a solution so she couldn’t. She was also so reassuring while taking care of my animals. She’s amazing”
“Nickey is the absolute best!! We were so nervous to leave our very shy and anxious cat for a week but she calmed our nerves with daily videos and pictures. Our cat warmed up to her gentle and sweet demeanor right away and we could not be more grateful for the peace of mind she gave us on our trip. She is kind, thoughtful, trustworthy, and mindful. We are so happy we chose Nickey and will be using her whenever we take another trip. Thank you so much Nickey!!”
“Melanie has been taking care of our cats whenever we’re away for over two years now, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Our pets are always happy and clearly well-loved in our absence — and that peace of mind is truly priceless. She’s reliable, communicative, and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure everything is perfect. We highly recommend Melanie to anyone looking for a kind, trustworthy, and professional pet sitter!”
“We are so extremely grateful to have had Kristen stay with our fur baby while we were away for several days. Kristen is an excellent communicator and so very kind. She was very, proactive, prompt, reliable, caring, and responsible. She took such good care of our sweet cat and our house during her stay, and provided consistent and comprehensive updates along with photos of our little guy each day. We felt so at ease knowing he was so well taken care of and in such good company. Kristen will most definitely be a go-to sitter from now on, and we highly recommend her to other fur parents!”
“Micheal was awesome! I was worried about our cat getting his medication but Micheal was wonderful and able to ensure he got his meds every day! We are extremely pleased and look forward to future bookings knowing our cats will be in great hands while we are away.”
About: I've owned several cats, one with medical issues. I love cats but can't own one currently because of a kiddo with allergies. I would love to get some cat time while caring for your babies.
“Ryan was prompt and communicated well - he sent us photos of our pet’s food, water, and litterbox so we knew they were being taken care of and instructions followed. Extremely pleased!”
“Sarah is fantastic! My cat has special needs (although you’d never know) so I’m super particular about who watches my boy. That said, I would request her to watch my kitty again, hands down! She followed directions, was super communicative, and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation without worrying about our cat the whole time. We got back and Leo was screaming his head off because he missed us, but we know Sarah spent the time to sit with him and give him love and we all couldn’t appreciate that more. (Thank you, Sarah!)”
“Gypsie and Robby were great! My cat needed checked on once a day while I was on vacation. They were always on time, spent quality time with my kitty and sent multiple pictures!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats for as long as I can remember. There’s never been a time in my life without them. As a cat owner myself with two cats of my own, I understand how important it is for cats to feel safe, comfortable, and secure in their environment while their owners are away. I focus on creating a calm, stress free experience by keeping up with their regular routines, including feeding schedules, playtime, litter box maintenance, and giving them attention at their own comfort level. I take the time to build trust and form genuine connections with each cat so they feel relaxed and cared for in your absence. Whether your cat loves lots of attention and interaction or prefers a quiet, patient companion nearby, I’m happy to provide personalized care tailored to their needs.
“I could not have found a better care taker for my dogs! My dogs were so loved and cared for while I was away, and Jennifer is so kind & helpful. I’ll definitely use her any time I need someone to take care of any pet I own! The peace of mind she brought me while I was away is invaluable!”
“Isaac was reliable, communicative, and took great care of our two cats during their drop-in visits. I appreciated the updates he gave while we were away and would definitely book with him again in the future. Overall, great experience and highly recommend!”
“Vanessa was very caring for our three cats while we went out of town for four days. She brought her daughter to do check ins and our cat Kuiper quickly befriended her. She kept our house clean and provided lots of details on how our cats were doing with photos and regular communication which we appreciated I for sure will be hiring Vanessa back in the future.”
“As always, Nicole provides amazing care for my voids. They're clearly extremely happy and well-cared for! I am already figuring out my schedule so I can secure more of Nicole's care for my evil kittens!”
“My cats are rescues that do not do well when I’m away unless someone is here most of the time. They usually end up losing a lot of weight from not eating. I was lucky that Angie was available to watch them while I was away. She did a wonderful job of keeping them happy and well fed. She is very thoughtful and always made sure they were okay. She also left my apartment in excellent condition! I would highly recommend her for cat sitting. I will be using her again in the future.”

“Stephanie took great care of coco. This was our first time pet sitting coco with Stephanie and we had a great experience. Coco came all happy and Stephanie sent pictures regularly during the entire stay.”
“Gayle was hands down the best person we could have found to watch our 6 month old puppy! We booked daycare with her while we were out of town for two weeks. It was our first time leaving our pup so we were a little nervous, but right away we knew she would be in great hands with Gayle. Gayle is super attentive, asked us about our schedule/boundaries/rules, and truly treated our puppy like her own. Gayle's house is completely puppy-proofed, and she is always there to supervise so you can be sure that your furbaby is safe and well-cared for. Gayle has an awesome fenced-in backyard and a wonderful lab, Buckaroo, who our puppy LOVED playing with! He is super easy-going and was a perfect playmate - they became fast friends. Gayle was very communicative and flexible with us, quickly responding to our messages and accomodating our drop off/pick up times. She sent us pictures and email updates at the end of each day, so we always knew how the day went. Puppies can be a lot of work, but Gayle had so much knowledge about caring for dogs, and truly loved our girl as much as we do. We can't recommend Gayle and Buckaroo enough, and are excited to work with them again. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup!”
“Candra took excellent care of our 18 month old Goldendoodle for day boarding. She shared updates regularly, played with him and followed care instructions. Would highly recommend her and would utilize her services again.”
“Jessica was so great with my dog, Grizz! He loved playing with her dogs, and she kept sending me pictures throughout the day of all the dogs playing! She is dependable and has a great environment for caring for dogs. Will definitely use her again!”
About: I bring a lifetime of experience in caring for animals and live on 10 acres of wooded pastures with 3 horses, dogs, cats, and a house rabbit. My personal pack of four rescue dogs get along well with any new dog I introduce to the family. I have been fostering dogs for a local rescue organization for several years, gaining hands-on experience with many breeds and ages of dogs. I specialize in puppy care and training and have successfully provided basic training and care for numerous foster dogs. I have experience caring for elderly dogs and am skilled in giving medication and insulin. This is an all inclusive experience for dogs! Here your dog will enjoy plenty of supervised outdoor playtime in my private dog park which offers a peaceful setting away from any traffic noise. This is true farm privacy with a ten acre buffer and plenty of natural enrichment including a natural creek, pond, and wooded pastures. Dogs will have opportunities to participate in activities like sniff walks, barn exploring, and pack walks. For puppies I keep them on a schedule for potty training, socializing, and naps. Additionally, I have a dedicated small dog area and small dogs get to enjoy couch time in the evenings! All activities are included for the boarding price. If you desire an exit bath before your dog goes home please let me know. 🐾 I enjoy working on agility training with one of my dogs who is very athletic and to expand my training knowledge, I continue to work with local dog trainers. Beyond my work with animals, I raised two children and dedicated 18 years to volunteering in our local school district, where I passed multiple background checks and supported various programs and events in schools and classrooms. My property is quiet and away from any traffic yet located just a mile from a major highway making it easy to get to for drop off and pick up! I am home everyday and spend most of my time with the animals in my care. I am happy to be flexible on timing for drop off or pick up windows and can pop in for drop in visits to give you a helping hand. In my home pets will be fed twice a day and have off leash time to relax or play with friends. If they are crate trained they will have their own crate to retreat to and dog beds to rest on. My dogs enjoy meeting new friends and provide a comforting pack to show new dogs the ropes. Outside, I always work on name recall with new dogs on leash and when they get to know me they will have supervised off leash time. Additionally, your dog may enjoy a walk to our horse barn and discover a world of sensory enrichment for their nose! In your home I can play with and feed your kitty or your pups and provide any care they need and can feed on the schedule that you request.
“Frankie loved spending time with Aein and Felfel. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Aein gave updates everyday with videos and photos. I could tell Frankie was completely comfortable and was having a great time. I had no worries and know that with Aein, Frankie is well taken care of. I highly recommend Aein to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.”
About: Hi, my name is Kelsey! I am a mom of three wonderful kids and have decided to make a little money by doing what I love, caring for pets. I work as a real estate agent so my hours are very flexible. As someone who has needed to rely on someone to care for our pets while we are gone, I understand the importance of finding a loving and trustworthy person. I would love to care for your pets and give them a comfortable home. My first job was a vet assistant at an animal hospital and was then promoted to a receptionist. I've worked with all types of dogs and cats. I grew up fostering pets from PAWS and learned to love animals from a young age. I've had my beautiful German Shepherd for 10 years and two fun kitties for over 12 years. I would be happy to board your pet in our home. We treat every pet as our own and hope to make our home an extension of yours. Every animal is treated with care and will get tons of love from my kids. Your pets safety and happiness is my number one priority when they are in my care. We have a large yard with a dog run that is fully fenced. We will never leave your pet outside alone and if they are wounders they will be on leash. I'm currently a full time mom and real estate agent. My day is very flexible and I am home either with my kids or working. I have a fully fenced dog run which my dog loves to dig holes in and play. When your dog his in our home, we treat them as our own. They get the run of the house and just spend time with us.
“Tunyi was wonderful! She sent me updates on how my pup was doing! She made the process very easy. Thanks Tunyi! Definitely will be asking again!”
“Cynthia and her husband are so warm and welcoming. I have a 9 month old pup that has only stayed with me or family. He felt right at home with Cynthia and her 3 sweet dogs! Since this was his first stay, Cynthia was gracious to let us come for a meet and greet the day prior to be sure Gus would be comfortable in her home and with her dogs. She put us both at ease the moment we arrived and slowly allowed Gus to check out their backyard and meet the other dogs slowly. Cynthia is a great communicator and sent lots of photos and videos to be sure I knew Gus was happy and enjoying his time with them! We look forward to Gus’ next stay!”
“Manisha is a wonderful caregiver! My dog is very shy in new situations but she was patient and kind, and after one day he was pulling me to the door at drop off in his excitement to get there. She sends pictures and videos so I know my furboy is having a great time. I am thrilled to have found Manisha and highly recommend her.”

I love spending time with them and naturally connect with their behavior and needs. ✨ What makes my care different I don’t just watch dogs — I understand them. With a foundation in positive reinforcement training (KPA), I focus on reading behavior, reducing stress, and helping dogs feel calm and secure in a new environment. This means: ✔ Less anxiety during stays ✔ Better social interactions ✔ A calmer, more balanced experience overall I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog behind — it can be stressful for them and for you. That’s why I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home from the start. I take the time to build trust at their pace, and soon you’ll see them relaxed, playful, and enjoying their stay. (Fair warning: you might feel a little jealous seeing how much fun they’re having, but isn’t that the goal 🥹).

About: 🐶About Me & My Experience with Dogs Hi! I have over 16 years of experience caring for dogs, specializing in small and medium pups only, so your dog will always be in a calm, safe, and stress-free environment. I’ve lived with dogs since I was a child and have always considered them part of my family. I’ve cared for a Poodle, a Chihuahua, and a Jindo-Retriever mix, and I currently have a small Chihuahua who is very precious to me. I moved to the U.S. from Korea with my dog, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pet. 💙 How I Care for Dogs I focus on providing a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for small or medium dogs I treat every dog like family and provide gentle, attentive care—just like caring for a baby. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, routine, and needs so they can feel relaxed and at home. 🐶 Small or medium dogs only (up to 20 lbs) 🏡 Loving, clean, and cozy home environment 🫶🏻Care tailored to your dog’s routine and needs 📸 Daily photo & video updates for peace of mind 🫐🍎organic blueberries and apples as treats 🐾 Paw pads gently cleaned after every walk My goal is to make sure your dog feels loved, secure, and happy while you’re away. 🩵 Love, Attention & Cleanliness I treat every dog with love and careful attention, while also maintaining a high standard of cleanliness and hygiene. My goal is to create a clean, safe, and comfortable space where dogs feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for. 👟 We don’t wear shoes indoors, so your dog stays in a clean space at all times. 🐾 After walks, I gently wipe your dog’s paws with pet-safe wipes before coming inside. 🧼 Hygiene Care I pay close attention to bowl hygiene and water quality, as bacteria can quickly build up from saliva and food residue. Poor hygiene can lead to digestive issues, skin irritation (especially around the mouth and chin), and reduced water intake. • Food bowls are washed after every meal • Water bowls are cleaned daily before bedtime • Fresh water is provided multiple times throughout the day I believe proper hygiene is essential for a dog’s health, comfort, and overall well-being. 💧 Fresh, filtered water is provided regularly. During colder seasons, I prepare lukewarm water for extra comfort. 🥣 Water and food bowls are cleaned after every meal using baby dish soap, a distilled vinegar, or baking soda. ✨ Floors and surfaces are cleaned regularly, and I use a chemical-free steam cleaner along with carefully selected, low-toxin products like Attitude and Better Life to create a safe and hygienic environment for dogs. I care for every dog with the same level of love, attention, and cleanliness that I give to my own dog.

Since I have my own dog at home, I only accept one booking at a time and care for one small or medium dogs (up to 20lbs) to ensure a calm and safe environment. When I lived in Korea, I cared for family dogs for over the years, so I’m very comfortable and experienced with dog care. Your pup will receive my full attention, a consistent routine, and plenty of love. 📍 My Space I live in a cozy apartment that’s well-suited for small dogs. To help protect their joints and prevent slipping, the living room is covered with baby play mats. There are designated potty areas and a clean artificial turf space behind the building for easy potty breaks. Nearby Woodin Creek Park is just a 5 minute walk away—perfect for daily walks, light runs, and extra playtime.
“Cara did a great job with my dog, Abby. They went for a walk & played in her backyard. All the things my dog loves to do! Cara also sent some very cute pictures. Thank you Cara for taking such good care of Abby.🐶”
“Alexandra was an awesome sitter for my dog Spike. She is highly communicative and professional. Spike had a great day and got along so well with Alexandra and her daughter. She took him on 2 walks and made sure he was fed and content. I absolutely recommend Alexandra for boarding and dog sitting and I will be booking her again!”

“She’s been an amazing dog walker for us! My dog absolutely loves her—she’s incredibly friendly, patient, and gentle, which made a huge difference right away. In just a couple of days, he’s already grown to trust her, and there is improvement in his walks (calmer and more confident). Great communication and truly caring. Highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was awesome! She sent me a picture of my dog on her walk and also left a note to let me know how everything went while she was there. I will be using Jennifer again!”
“Emily has done a few walks in the afternoons for our two pugs Earl and Opal. She is always on time and writes the best report cards after their walks, including pictures. She is very flexible and did not hesitate when we asked for some special treatment with our senior pug. She really seems to have a heart for dogs and we have been very happy with her!”
“Kylie has walked our pup four times over the past two weeks. She is professional, reliable, and has a warm, easygoing demeanor. Our dog took to her right away, which gave us immediate peace of mind. We’re looking forward to having Kylie take care of her full-time while we’re on vacation this summer—it’s reassuring to know she’ll be in such good hands.”
“Hope is great to work with and provides excellent communication and feedback. She took great care of our dog while we were at work. Will happily use hopes services again in the future.”
“Miranda is doing a wonderful job with Max! Her updates and pictures from each walk are a wonderful treat to receive while at work, and I am so appreciative that she does them. Since working with Miranda Max has also gotten a lot better walking on the leash. Thanks Miranda!”
“Paige took such wonderful care of my pup! Her experience and knowledge of reactive dogs put me at ease having her watch mine! And she sent lots of pictures and updates to let me know how the day went!”
“Michael is punctual, a great communicator, and it’s obvious he loves animals. Meeko took to him right away and looked forward to his walks. He would fall asleep before Michael could pull away in his car! I HIGHLY recommend Michael and will definitely reach again should the need arise.”
“Jennifer is wonderful! She has been great with our dog! She is friendly, communicates very well, is on time, and is happy to follow our dog's lead (which is what we like first our dog). So happy we found her to help with our furry kid!”
About: Hey all, my name is Payton, I’m a graduate from Everett CC and furthering my education for health and physical education in ND. I am back for the summer. I would explain myself as a loving pet owner. I have a dog myself and I love her endlessly and would do anything for her and any other pet. I can assure you that your pet will get great love and never feel alone or bored. Also, I love going for walks/runs, so I could make sure your pet get the desired exercise they need. Since I’m just getting back from college, I’m currently not working and I am available everyday of the week! I would love to hang around your pet and create a new friend as summer goes on. I hope you choose me as your next pet sitter as your pet would greatly appreciate it! It would help me get some experience for myself if I ever wanted to pursue my job involving animals. As of June I currently am not working a job, I am available everyday of the week unless I get booked by someone on Rover. So, chances are I’ll be available to watch/walk/ your dog! I’m always making sure they have everything they need, the water dish is never empty as I’m constantly checking it. I like to play with dogs so I’ll be able to get them active and running around!
“Samantha is super patient and willing to problem solve! I have a big dog that is anxious/reactive and requires special circumstances—Samantha has been great with him, and I really appreciate it.”
About: My family loves dogs. We also know how hard it is to find care you can trust. We will send pictures when you are gone and give your dog lots of attention. We have both owned dogs our whole lives and are very familiar with all breeds. We signed up to be foster parents to shelter dogs, have administered medication and taken care of puppies and older dogs. We have one friendly yellow lab who is happy to welcome others into her home and play. We also have a two small children so we ask that your dogs be kid friendly. We are flexible, and can help in picking up and dropping off if nearby on certain days. If interested, please ask and we can try and coordinate. Please contact us! We would love to help you. We have a big yard for the dogs to run around and play in. We let them out whenever needed. Drop off and pick up times are flexible, but we ask that dogs are picked up or dropped off before 10pm. If this cannot be accommodated, we ask you please pay for an additional day and pick up the next morning. Or drop off the day before. We have a fenced in yard and a friendly yellow lab to provide lots of play. Most dogs are pretty tired and happy when they leave! Our kids give them lots of attention as well.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a puppy myself. I currently have a 2-year-old active and playful blue heeler mix that I've raised from when she was 3 months old. I am very active (looooove walks), strong (able to handle strong pulling or heavy dogs), and playful. I have a special place in my heart for large dogs (both young and young-at-heart), but all dogs are welcome. I also love high energy pups! Our sweet family golden retriever/lab rescue doggie passed away in 2018 at age 10.5, so I also have experience with medical care for older dogs. I have two dog-loving young kids at home. We'd be honored to take care of your sweet doggie! I work from home, so I'm flexible to come play and walk your pups throughout the day. My preferred schedule is last mornings (between 9-12) and afternoons before 3:30 pm, but I'm willing to coordinate with you for what supports you and your pup best. For walks, I'm very active, strong, and calm under pressure. If you're booking a stay at my home, I have a large fenced yard with an energetic and sweet 2-year-old intermediately trained dog to keep them company. She is also crate trained! I work from home and will keep a good eye on your pup.

“Kira was fantastic with Darmeen! She kept me updated throughout the stay with how she was doing, which gave me peace of mind. She also went above and beyond by offering helpful tips for managing Darmeen’s pawlicking issue. I highly recommend her and will definitely trust her with my dog again!”
“Our pup, Olive, had a great time! Lots of great photos. We felt confident leaving our girl with Suzanne and would be happy to book with her again in the future!”
“Peaches absolutely loved her time with Kelsey and her family! Kelsey was a fantastic communicator and kept me updated with pictures and videos of Peaches’ adventures with her girls. Thank you so much for welcoming her into your home!”
“It was our first time using Rover, but had a 2.5 week vacation planned overseas and wanted our dog to stay in a home environment. Justin was super easy to communicate with, always responding very quickly. He and his family gave our dog a home away from home. He sent daily updates with photos and kindly responded to all of my inquiries. When we picked up our dog, he seemed like he had been really well cared for. Thank you, Justin for making our first Rover experience a great one!”
“Elizabeth was amazing with our reactive dog Chicken. She is extremely kind, communicative, and reliable. Chicken is an Aussie and they can be selective with new people and she did great with Elizabeth and her family. She sent regular updates and photos which was super helpful. I can tell Chicken feels really comfortable and well taken care of when she’s at Elizabeth’s.”
“Sheena took great care of my dog, Uno. She handled introductions between Uno and her own dog really well. She updated me with photos, and Uno looked like he was having a great time. It was clear he was in good hands and well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Sheena to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter.”
“Liz is the absolute best sitter for our difficult and anxious dog! We will absolutely continue coming back to Liz as long as she will have us! Liz was experienced with handling our dog's behavioral challenges, met with us twice before our stay to help our dog acclimate, followed our extensive and complicated instructions including medications and feeding, took great pictures, and was happy to continue using the training philosophy that we follow during our dog's stay. She is very responsive, friendly and accommodating to all of our needs and our dog's needs. She took amazing care of our dog and really went above and beyond. We are so grateful to have found Liz!”
“Our dog Zuzu loves coming to stay with Julie! She's always well taken care of and gets lots of play and cuddles 💕 and we get regular photos and updates, and peace of mind while out of town”
“Rebecca is absolutely fantastic! She is reliable, organized, competent, a dog whisperer, and gives our pup lots of love and walks. She provides videos and email updates. Would highly recommend.”
“Absolutely incredible! Tons of updates & pictures, lots of play time! Doggies had a mini vacation and never wanted to come home :) Highly recommend Joshua! He truly is the best!”
“Mounica took great care of our dog, Mikko. She sent consistent updates and they gave him regular walks and time outside to play! She even baked special Christmas dog treats for the few dogs they had over that time. We would book with her and her family again anytime! Thank you Mounica for the great care! We appreciate you!”
“Mike was a wonderful sitter. This was the first time we'd ever left our dog in anyone's care, and we left him for 10 nights. Mike sent daily photos and updates about our pup, and we could tell Roo was happy and well cared for. Additionally, Mike was easy to contact before, during, and after our trip. We will definitely contact Mike next time we need a sitter.”
“This was a great lil vacation for our doggo. Susan and David were kind, knowledgeable, flexible, and supportive throughout the entire process. They provided daily updates and pictures and kept us apprised of everything that happened throughout the day. I will absolutely be booking with them again.”
“Tammy is fantastic! She took great care of Charlie! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and will absolutely be having her watch Charlie again. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your dog is being well cared for. I love that he had other dogs to play with all week, and came home happy and exhausted. If you are looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and professional home-boarding experience, this is it.”
“Kelsey did an amazing job with my 7 year old golden retriever! She made him feel right at home and made sure to update me daily with a description of their day. She also sent lots of pictures! I would definitely have Kelsey watch my dog again!”
“They were wonderful caregivers for Finn. I could tell the second I picked him up that he was a bit leary of wanting to come back with me due to wonderful care Shi Min and Chamin provided. They updated me daily with photos and provided feedback on how Finn acted in their care. I will most certainly use them in the future!”
“Tracy took excellent care of Nicco. Tracy has years of experience raising and training dogs, and I felt very comfortable leaving Nicco in her care. Nicco fit in well with her family and her pack and seemed to really enjoy his time “on the farm.” I will definitely request to board again in the future!”
