“Kathryn and Matt were amazing. They have 2 other dogs that Gumbo was able to play with and the property was safe for him to have a good time.. They gave regular updates on how he was doing, walked him around the neighborhood and even snuggled him on the couch when he sat next to them. They were excellent caretakers.”
“Lori was great in multiple ways. She welcomed Coaster in and made him a part of the pack. We got lots of photos and updates every day, so we knew he was doing well. Large, fenced property for exploring and playing. Our travel plans changed while we were away, and she was flexible enough to extend Coaster's stay by several days, including feeding him her own food after ours ran out. I'm sure he'll love to go back. From our home, she's a little out of the way, but it's more than worth it. We're grateful.”
“Brianne took great care of our 19 month old Bernedoodle, Kona. She and her family welcomed Kona into their home with love and care. We received pictures and updates which put us at ease since this was Kona's first time staying with another family and dog. Our dog even forgot who we were when we returned after 6 days to pick her up. Thanks again, Brianne!”
“Diane was an excellent dog sitter for our dog Luna. We were a little nervous because we just recently adopted her, she’s a little shy around new people, and and this was the first time we boarded her, but Diane was amazing, sent lots of pictures and updates, and I could tell Luna was very comfortable and well taken care of. Would highly recommend Diane.”
“Tatyanah and Everardo watched our dog Nova for five nights and took such wonderful care of her. They are so friendly and you can tell right away they love dogs. It was such a relief to know she was being loved and well cared for while we were on vacation. They have a spacious yard, and Nova especially enjoyed playing with their two dogs—she bonded quickly with Jojo! They took her on plenty of walks and kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love for them to watch her again next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Chong has watched our two Bois a handful of times now and she's great! Very accommodating and you can tell that she actually cares for the pups very much. They love to run around her big yard and come back tired every time.”
“Our Labrador Nova seemed to love Marta and her dog, and definitely enjoyed her backyard and pool! Marta provided multiple pictures every day which we appreciated. We hope to use her again in the future!”
“We are soo grateful to Mckennah for taking such great care of our pup Luna, and for putting our minds at ease knowing that she was going to be taken care of while we were away. This was our first time using a sitting service, and were honestly a little bit nervous, but Mckennah was so awesome from the very start. She responded to messages quickly, was very kind, and it was obvious that she really cares about the animals that she takes care of. She sent us photos and videos with regular updates on how our Luna was doing, so we got to see all the park adventures that they went on! We honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience, and we are so happy we have found someone to love and take care of our Luna the next time we go out of town! Thank you so much Mckennah!!”
“Sana and her family were great with our little brat. She kept a good amount of daily updates and was very quick to communicate with any questions we had. Bentley came home happy and content. Thank you family for caring for our old baby.”
“Darcy was just the best sitter for our dog! She showed him so much love and attention that he was perfectly relaxed the moment he arrived. That was important to me too so I could relax knowing he was well care for. Darcy understands dog behavior and knows how to handle walks, greetings with other dogs and play time. She’s not just a dog walker, she’s engaged every step of the way. I highly recommend her and she’s my go to person from now on!”
“GENUINE, attentive and very caring. My dog was very happy when I picked her up and they sent her home with a “doggy bag” with a toy and treat! Such a thoughtful touch. DEFINITELY will book again!”
“Greg and Kat were so wonderful with my dog Mando! It was my first time using Rover for my dog and I was a bit nervous but they kept me updated the entire time with lots of pictures. He always looked well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Audra is a dog MOMA . Her little hound is a sweet corky mix who is very mellow and friendly. She spoiled my high maintenance Papion show dog 🐕 and my baby had a great time. Lots of walks with lots to pictures . This lady really loves hounds.”
“Angie is the best! So warm and inviting and friendly, and our dog Hank (140 lb Great Dane) settled in very well. They have a beautiful home with big yard. We will definitely become regulars!”
“Our pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kind— we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!”
“Anasteysha was fantastic from the get-go: quick replies, communicative, accommodating, and took incredible care of our two pups! We would absolutely rebook with her whenever we need a sitter. Thank you Anasteysha!”

Acausha did an amazing job caring for our two little pups. I was so worried about leaving them fur eight days but I didn’t need to be. Acausha was very patient with our nervous older dog and did a great job with our energetic younger dog. She even sent pictures regularly throughout our trip. I highly recommend Acausha!
