“Michelle was awesome! She took such good care of our dogs while we were out of town. The updates she provides are great and made me feel so much more comfortable on our trip knowing how dogs were doing. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Jadyn is so great! Our blue heeler, Buddy loves when she comes to watch him! She is very responsive, sends tons of updates with pictures, and is the best sitter! We love her!!”
“How do I put in words how amazing and grateful we are for Madison!!! She house and dog sat for us for six full days. It was originally only suppose to be for four, but my mom got sick and so Madison stepped in and extended for two more days. She learned how to give our diabetic dog his insulin twice a day, sent pictures every day and even cooked them eggs to encourage them to eat. She cleaned and washed up after the dogs and I am just so thankful and impressed by her. We will definitely be using her again in the future!! Thank you so much!!!”
“My first time to try Rover was with Colleen and I couldn’t be happier with everything she did. My dog is aging so I worry about her whenever I leave her anywhere but I definitely feel better when I can leave her at home. Colleen understood what my old girl needed when meeting new people which is always a concern for me. She also left the house so neat - it’s great to come home to a clean house. I couldn’t recommend Colleen more!”
“Oh Em Gee. This was the first time I had to trust someone I hardly knew to watch my animals in my house and boy did Kimberly deliver! Tons of pictures while I was away and I came home to so many happy wags. Couldn’t ask for more than that!”
“Yessi delivered amazing care for our rambunctious pack! Her communication was great and she sent multiple messages, photos, and videos, keeping us updated on how our fur-babies were doing!! I will be keeping her on my sitter list for sure! You won't be disappointed if you book Yessi!”

“Sheryl is amazing! Even our older little doxy who usually doesn’t like people who visit let alone stay has a new best friend. Sheryl is very conscientious and caring of all of our needs and worries of our fur babies. It went so well that now we found her, we plan to travel a bit more knowing everything will be just fine 💜 Highly recommend (even tho I don’t want to share!)”
“Ida was amazing with my dogs. One of them is reactive and she was patient and understanding when meeting her. I felt SO comfortable leaving my dogs with her. Will definitely rebook.”
