“Sharon was yet again very flexible & accomodating! Flights were cancelled & she said she would watch my cat for as long as needed. She’s someone you can depend on :-)”
2. Dana F.
“Dana just loves dogs and my dog is always very happy when she is with Dana. I have used her 3 times and would not hesitate to have my dog with her again! She also sends me wonderful pictures. I trust Dana!”
3. Christina A.
“Christina was the best Rover we have ever had! We felt so comfortable leaving Bo with Christina while we were traveling overseas. We received daily updates and Bo looked like he was living his best life and getting plenty of exercise. As soon as we got home, Bo slept all day!! Will definitely be bringing Bo back!”
4. Erica V.
“Erica is amazing! She watched our 2.5mo old puppy for the weekend and we can tell he had a great time! She sent us pictures, videos and updates the whole weekend and is so so nice. We highly recommend booking with Erica!”
5. Elisabeth N.
“Elisabeth and Joe were awesome sitters for my occasional anxious dog Harley. It was Harley’s first time being watched outside of family and Elisabeth and Joe made sure she felt comfortable in their home. They sent daily updates with pics and video which showed me that Harley was on her own little vacation while she romped with their own pups. Next time I need a sitter for Harley, I will be checking their availability first. Highly recommend!”
6. Karissa L.
“Karissa is very caring and will love your dogs like her own for the time she has them. She sends pictures at least once a day so you know they’re doing well. My dog had a great weekend while I was away. Would book again if I need it! Thank you so much!”
7. Karen & Chris C.
“Karen and Chris were fantastic! They are such a nice family that took excellent care of our pup. They were great with communication and pictures. I knew our dog was safe and loved! Highly recommend!!!”
8. Megan D.
“Megan and her husband were great! Drop off and pick up we’re both super easy and Sawyer was exhausted from all of the playing. We will definitely be back if we’re ever in the area again 😊”
9. Miki M.
“I can't think of anyone I would trust more with our beloved Golden Retrievers, Poppy and Marigold, than Miki. She is loving, attentive, and responsible. Miki enjoys spending time with them and they LOVE her!!”
10. Leanne & Michael M.
“Stella had a great time at LeAnne & Michael’s house!!! Stella is a bit of an anxious girl, but LeAnne was very patient and understanding, and within 12 hours Stella was right at home! Leanne took lots of pics of Stella throughout our trip, and I felt that Stella was in great hands. We can’t wait to travel again - Stella has a new 2nd home!!!”
11. Kim W.
“Our pup, Benji, hasn’t moved from the couch since we picked him up from Kim’s this morning. She took such good care of him for the last 12 days. He played with so many friends! Kim is a caring animal lover with a beautiful horse farm. Animals are her passion. If your dog is used to the run of your home, endless understanding & a good time, Kim is who you want. I’m sure Benji will visit again the next time we go away.”
12. Erin N.
“Erin took great care of our pup! We'd be happy to work with her in the future.”

15. Kelly M.
“Drop off and pick up were very easy. Kelly was friendly and has a great back yard for the dogs to romp in. Thank you again, for a great stay!”
16. Jessica v.
“Jessica and Justin are wonderful friendly, energetic people. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with them and their own dog. We met ahead of time to be sure everyone liked each other. After dropping off my dog I asked if she could possibly trim his nails. I had made a grooming appointment but it wasn't for another 2 weeks, and my dog was slipping on hard wood floors. She happily offer to see if her groomer could squeeze him in for a quick nail trim. She was able to and I paid a small fee to the groomer. I plan to bring Charlie back for any future trips. A+ experience!”
17. Keasha B.
“Keasha and her son are the best ! First time using Rover and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. You can tell Keasha and her son love animals. Pictures and video updates were awesome to receive. Will definitely ask them to watch her again. Highly recommend.”
18. Celina B.
“Celina is great dog sitter, she cared for my dog while visiting out of state. My dog looked calm, and happy around Celina. I would recommend her as dog sitter.”
19. Joseph N.
“Dolly had a great stay with Joseph and his pups! He gave me a mini tour and it was clear the dogs would have lots of space and attention. I appreciated the photos and updates he sent daily and would absolutely trust him to watch Dolly again.”
20. Natalia M.
“Good morning Natalia! Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Calvyn! It’s clear that you went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable, happy, and loved. We could tell he was in great hands, and it really put our minds at ease while we were away on the cruise. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you for everything you did an outstanding job! We noticed how happy Calvyn seemed to be when we brought him home. Job well done! Thank you so much we really appreciate it. We would highly recommend you to others! Manny and Addy Marques”
