“Cheryl was so sweet and Daisy was a happy girl when we picked her up. She took us on last minute and we couldn’t be more thankful! She sent lots of pictures throughout the stay and kept us updated. ☺️”


“Hack was amazing with our Louie! He sent plenty of pictures and even gave Louie some Christmas presents-which he loves! So very thoughtful! Would definitely have Hack take care of our fur baby again!”


“Carla is amazing! This was our first time leaving our 6 year old dachshund with someone other than family. I was very nervous - our Sammie can be snippy, barks, and is generally afraid of strangers. Carla was so patient and knowledgeable with Sammie. Sammie had a great time and Carla was amazing (I know I already said that but it's worth repeating). Carla accommodated Sammie's needs, calmed Sammie's fears, and was attentive to Sammie. We will book her again!”


“Romy had a great time! It’s been about a year and half. Romy felt at home and David and Krysta took great care of her. I also think she enjoys hanging with their 4 legged family too!”


“Our pups loved staying with her her. We wondered about the cranky old lady, but Kaylee adored Amanda and her family. (A high compliment) we have found our pet sitter when a need may arise.”


“Ana was amazing with my German Shepherd Harper. I hope she is available next time I'm in the area. I know harp had a great time and she kept my updated with pictures without me asking”


“Dana and her girls were really great with Sadie and Ella. They seemed very comfortable in her home, which is lovely as Ella can be quite anxious. We will use Dana again”


“100% recommend! Jessica & family were fabulous! Our dogs were truly in heaven for the week! Couldn’t have asked for more- we got pics daily and our pups had a great time!”



“I am so grateful i found this sitter! She was so communicative, sent plenty of pics and i was able to relax knowing my puppy was in good hands”


“Nicole was amazing with Marli and Mason! She kept us updated with lots of pictures and messages that made us feel so at ease. It was clear they were very happy and loved while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will absolutely book with her again!”


“Eric had Mollie for 3 nights. This was her first time away from us so we were probably more anxious about it than she was. Eric gave us a picture and updates every day. We will definitely have him keep her on future trips. Thanks for all you do.”


“Erika & Jason V were wonderful to deal with. I had to drop off Scamp sooner than expected and they were very accommodating allowing me to drop him off 4 hours early. Erika & Jason sent me pics and updates for Scamp everyday which really eases your mind when you are away from your beloved pet. Scamp is an older dog and has some issues with food and meds and Erika & Jason made sure he was given the correct amount of food and meds at the right time. Scamp loved staying with Erika & Jason and when I need another sitter for Scamp, Erika & Jason will be my go to. We will definitely book with Erika & Jason again through Rover. They treated Scamp like one of there own and I made me feel very much as ease leaving Scamp. Thanks again Erika & Jason, for taking care of my beloved pet with such care and attention and treating him and me like family..”


“Kirsten was wonderful!! Super communicative, sent lots of cute pictures, and it’s obvious my dog had a lovely time. Can’t recommend her enough.”


“This was our first time leaving our baby. From my first conversation with Rosemary and meeting Matthew at drop-off they made it so easy not to worry. I would recommend them 10times over. Thanks so much for making my vacation!”


“If you’re looking for a loving, caring, and genuine sitter, use Sadie!! I just picked up my dog, Mamba, and I couldn’t have had a better experience through Rover. She sends daily photos and updates, and we will be using her services again. Thank you Sadie and family!”


“Jen was great! She sent us pictures throughout Milo’s stay and I could tell he was well taken care of. He had a great time and I felt very comfortable with her watching him. We will definitely use her again!”


“Jessica did a wonderful job with Koda. Jessica sent lots of pictures and updates. Koda came home happy and healthy. Thanks for a great stay. Would definitely book again. The only downside was Jessica lives on base so we had to meet up at a location off base and transfer car to car. Not a big deal but may matter to some.”


“Nikki took great care of my Penny and helped her feel at ease when she was missing being at home. Will definitely keep Nikki in mind next time I need a dogsitter.”


“My girl, Cherry, is a frequent flyer at Gabriela's house. I have peace of mind knowing that she's in an environment where she's taken care of and loved like she's a part of the family. Yes, loved - I truly believe this. Gabriela and her kiddos know Cherry's likes, loves, and her silly quirks. They include her in family outings and activities. When she's not sure about something, like a food item treat, she reaches out. Communication is fantastic! I dont like going on trips without our girl, but Gabriela makes it easier with all of the picture, video, and text pupdates. If you're looking for a sitter who will take good care of your doggo, Gabriela may be a great fit! I highly recommend her ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
