“Great place to stay! We left our dog while we were on vacation for about 5 days and when we picked him up he had his nails trimmed and was given a bath. We got a updated with pictures/videos at least once a day and we could tell that he was exercised and happy!”
“Amanda was great! She was extremely accommodating for us and our pup Ginger! Her son was also great when it came to giving Ginger extra love and attention! Definitely recommend Amanda for any of your boarding needs.”
“Debbie took great care of my puppy. She took the time to meet with me and Roxie beforehand to meet her and find out about her needs. It was great to know Roxie was safe while I was out and I would recommend Debbie.”
“My chihuahua, Suki, is a shelter rescue so a bit leary of people. But Krysta let Suki come sit with her on the sofa at her own pace, which she did! I will leave Suki with Krysta again.”
“Laura did a great job with my pup again! I know that he is well cared for and safe when she is taking care of him. He always has a great time with her dog Diesel and goes on nice walks. I love how he always comes back to me good and tired! I highly recommend Laura and I will definitely be using her again!”
“Shannon is just wonderful!! She came highly recommended to me and I couldn’t agree more! She has a wonderful space for dogs to play, she’s so incredibly helpful, attentive, responsive and most importantly - amazing with the dogs!”
“Tia and Colin are AMAZING!! They were so warm, welcoming and caring for my pups while I was out of town. They graciously opened their home for dog sitting and I don’t think my pups were ready to leave!! They went above and beyond in making sure my dogs were loved and cared for. I especially appreciated the updates and pics while I was away. If you are looking for outstanding care and attention, I HIGHLY recommend Tia and Colin!!”
“Kristi did a great job, our two small dogs were happy when we picked them up and we could tell they were not stressed when we were gone. She snuggles with them on the couch and lets them sleep on the bed. They got along great with her dog. They even got homemade healthy treats. She let us come for a visit before their stay so it would not be a strange place for them to go. She is also 10 minutes from the airport. Will defiantly use Kristi again.”
“Tracy is great! Good communication and pics throughout the stay. Juniper seemed to enjoy his time with his new dog friends. Super convenient, reasonable price and easy to book. I appreciate having my dog as a part of a family vs. a pet daycare or corporate pet boarding. My dog appreciates the kind of attention that he gets with Tracy. Definitely recommend!”
“Our 2 dogs stayed with Mary for almost 2 weeks and I feel fortunate to have found her! She was great with our dogs and Ollie really enjoyed having Mateo as a playmate. I'm sure our dogs loved the huge fenced backyard. Mary was great with sending pics and video too. Thanks again Mary!”

“Absolutely amazing people! They took exceptional care of my dog, and it was obvious he was happy, comfortable, and loved while he was with them. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring people to look after their pet. Thank you so much!”

“Elizabeth was super reliable with watching after my cat for a short trip! She was very communicative in updating me on her plans to drop in, etc. which I greatly appreciated :) will be booking her again!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Kailey. We have a very shy cat and after a few days he did come out and engage with her. I’m sure her experience with shy cats certainly helped! Kailey was great with informing while we were away and we loved getting photos and updates. We will definitely use Kailey again in the future!”
“Rachel went truly above and beyond- taking care of stuff she didn’t have to just because it helped me out (like cat vomit haha). It was such a relief to not have to worry while I was on the wrong continent. She must have been amazing with my cats too because my never-talks-to-anyone orange let her have pets! Thank you Rachel!!”

About: I have taken care of cats for 20 plus years. I currently have one cat, Brinn. She is a very sweet tortie. I would be happy to take care of your cat/s and give them all the pet snuggles.
“Shyla was very reliable stopping in to care for my 6 cats. I didn't worry at all, except that 4 of them wouldn't come out of hiding when she came! That's not unusual, though. She left the house clean and in order. Everything was done properly. She was good at communicating with me and sent some cute pictures. I am so happy I found her and have another trip coming up, so I hope she is available! Shyla, please let me know if there is anything that would make your visits easier or if you have any suggestions for me. Thank you!”

I am amazed and so grateful to have found her. Ive had the best experience with her and I cant say enough!!”

My cats love her and loved to play and be pet! She handled my entry instructions great and I felt very safe leaving my cats in her care and my apartment open to her! I met her in person as well she is so kind. I highly recommend!”
“Ashley was incredible to work with! She was quick to respond, communicated clearly and remained flexible with scheduling. Ashley sent me photos of Oliver and shared how the visit went. He clearly adored her from the photos! She also brought in a package that was delivered. This was my first Rover experience. I'm so grateful to have connected with Ashley! She will definitely be my go-to when I have to travel. Thank you, Ashley!”
“Jax got along very well either way Luke or the other way around. Luke did a wonderful watching over Jax and working with me to fit into my schedule. I look forward to working with Luke in the future. He is a keeper”
“we had a last minute cancelation and Alissa responded very quickly and honestly she should have been our first choice. She was amazing and went above and beyond. My cat was comfortable with her and she was very accommodating to all our requests. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to leave their baby and have them be in good hands.”

Dogs are always welcome in my home and I will treat them like family.
“Elba had her hands full with our very spunky and relentlessly playful pup, but she did a fantastic job caring for Libby and patiently handling her with her high energy. Libby fell fast asleep once we came home and she slept the entire rest of the evening and night. She was worn out! I definitely recommend Elba and we can't wait to come back again!”

There is also a rest period which is amazing. Mabel is always so tired when she comes home. They offer pet grooming services!!!”

About: For over forty years we’ve always had dogs in our home. We have a sweet pitbull mix that we adopted last year. She came from a home with several dogs so she loves to meet and make new friends. We enjoy providing a good home to animals and we look forward to caring for your pets. Potty breaks can be provided every two hours. Your dog will have plenty of opportunities throughout the day to run, play fetch, or explore in our fenced backyard. We try to follow the same routine as you would for your pet at home. We only care for two dogs at a time as we have a dog of our own. The dogs have free run of the house if the owner doesn’t specify otherwise.

We will absolutely continue to take our puppy to Anna as long as she will have her!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life! Family and friends have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets, both cats and dogs.

My schedule is extremely flexible and I only work part time, so I can care for your pets at almost any time of day, especially mornings and afternoons. In a client's home, the pets are in a familiar environment with an unfamiliar person. So, the first thing I do is give the pets a chance to get used to me! Let them sniff me, let them approach me at their own pace.
“Excellent immediate communication always. Two days 1.5 hrs late out of 9 days but otherwise on time. I did not see Quazaye with my dog when she was walking him but could tell he was missing her when time ended. Always sent pics, consistent. Would use again! Thank you for your service.”

“Julie was great with my elderly dog! She was kind and personable and always cheerful! I appreciated her taking such good care of Rogue and walking her in treacherous conditions like ice and snow! I’d definitely recommend her and use her services again :)”
“Mary has been so helpful and supportive the last two weeks. I had a couple of deaths in my family and Mary was able to walk my dog and check in on her when I had to fly home for a funeral.

About: Hello! My name is Kelli. I have always loved dogs but wasn't able to have one growing up. This made me go around the neighborhood taking care of anyone's animal. This has given me experience with dogs of all different temperaments and breeds plus various owner's preferences. Let me know what works best for you and your pup and I'd be happy to accommodate. As an adult, I live in a home with a yard perfect for zoomies. I also now have my have dog, Scooby, who is a great sidekick when I board. Scooby was a rescue from a shelter with three different types of infections that I helped nurse him through. He's now a happy and healthy 4 year old boy. He loves other dogs and good with acting like 'older brotherly' with younger pups. So even when I have to leave your pup will have company. We look forward to meeting you! I work from home 90% of the time so though I work typically an 8 hour day I can typically be flexible to address immediate needs. My partner currently is working from home and sometimes helps out as well. I typically do a slow, calm introduction with both Scooby and the other dogs and will not leave them alone without supervision until after the first day. I can also always crate or I sometimes separate dogs in different rooms of the home.

“Dan and his family are our go-to sitters since we moved to the area. Our elderly dog, Stella, has stayed with them over the weekend twice and will be staying with them again next month for over a week. They have been more than accommodating with her needs, from providing her endless attention to making sure she gets her medications on time. They are patient with her fussiness and also make sure she gets plenty of time to rest. They also reach out to us during the visit with photos and updates! While they often sit multiple dogs at once, they maintain excellent control ensuring everyone is happy and healthy. They are retired so the pets receive loads of affection and are not left alone. Stella has grown quite attached to Dan and we look forward to having her stay with them again soon! We highly recommend this attentive, caring family!”

We love when Anna watches our pup as she keeps her stimulated with activities and her lovely dog Tommy!”
“Alyssa and her family were the greatest care takers I could have ever asked for. I was nervous to leave my boy with a stranger but then I met them. I immediately felt safe. So did Duncan. I can’t even fathom the amount of stars that they deserve. 5/5 5/5 5/5”
