Marielle is amazing! She’s watched my dog a couple of times now, including a full two weeks while I was in Japan, and I always feel totally at ease leaving my babygirl with her. She sends updates and pictures, and I can tell my dog is super happy and comfortable with her. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in great hands! Marielle is super sweet, reliable, and really cares about the dogs she watches. Definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust!

BEST DOGSITTER!!! Wilson had so much fun at Kshama’s! We are so lucky to have found her. She is thoughtful and caring and you can tell that she sincerely loves dogs. We got daily updates and she treated Wilson like he was one of her own. Played with him and even brushed him one day (which is no easy feat!). Also Wilson got along so well with her dog Zeus and the other dogs that stopped by. We will absolutely use Kshama again.

Danielle and her family were so great with my high energy, high anxiety border collie. She was super communicative in advance and was flexible with my crazy travel hours. When we got to their house to drop Callie off, she immediately took off into their huge, fenced in backyard, and I knew she’d have a great time there. Not only did Danielle and her family play with Callie, but even the neighborhood kiddos came to throw frisbees for her. I know she’d love to go back, and I’m happy to recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a fun time for their pup!

Laura took such great care of our dog, Telly, while we were on vacation. She sent lots of updates with photos and Telly always looked comfortable and happy like she was on her own vacation. Laura carefully read our instructions for care and feeding at drop-off and made sure she understood Telly’s needs before we left. She even cooked Telly more chicken to top her dog food with once the chicken we provided ran out. You can tell Laura truly loves dogs and I had no worries about leaving our pup with her for the week. I would definitely hire Laura again and highly recommend her to anyone else looking for a dog sitter!

I am so glad that I found Brigid and her family to watch my dog while I was gone. This was the first time I’d used rover and I was a little nervous, but once I met Brigid and her family I was instantly put at ease with leaving my dog with them for a week. Brigid kept me updated throughout the week on how my dog was doing and I could tell he was having a great time. Brigid took care of my dog as one of my own, and to have the peace of mind that he was being taken good care of made the world of difference. I couldn’t recommend them more.

Lonnie and his family took great care of our Irish Doodle Brooklyn. She gets very anxious being away from us, but we could tell she was comfortable and happy in their care. We appreciated the daily pictures of her while we were gone! They communicated with us regularly which was also helpful in feeling at ease. We will continue to use their services! So glad we found them!
