1. Susan O.
“Susan was great with my 5 year old labradoodle! He came home exhausted from all the playing and fun he had! She was also incredible at sending pictures and updates the whole time he was with her!”
2. Lily C.
“Lily was a lifesaver, stepping in with less than 24 hours' notice to dog sit for me. They were incredibly responsive and kept me updated with photos. My dog was happy and well-cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Lily for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially in a pinch!”
3. Lily B.
“Lily was great. She was very nurturing and fun. Her place was very clean and she was very friendly. She took great care of mochi and was very responsive and sent daily photos and updates. Would use her again!”
4. Rui P.
“Rui’s home was a haven for our little Sugar dog! She loved playing with the other little dogs Rui was watching and came back being more consistent in her “stay” command which was an awesome help to us. When we left she put her paw on the window sill and watched us leave like a movie scene or something ? she really had a great time.”
5. Courtney G.
“My dog may like Courtney more than she likes me which is a great problem to have when boarding your pup. Can’t say it enough-Courtney is the best!”
6. Savannah & Gabriel U.
“Savannah & Gabriel took good care of Abby, my 3-month old puppy, for about 7 hours while I went to the UT football game. They are a sweet couple, their apartment is immaculate, & Abby seemed relaxed & happy when I picked her up. I was also happy that they only had one pet of their own, another little shih tzu like Abby. I appreciated the pictures of Abby they sent. I also liked that they had puppy supplies (play pen, pads, beds, etc). All in all it was a very good experience.”
7. Cassandra & Jason K.
“Cassandra & Jason were great sitters for my dog, Luna. They were extremely communicative, quick to respond, and provided many updates throughout the weekend. When I picked up Luna, I could tell she would love to stay there again!”
8. Chris N.
“Chris know small dogs with their sensitivity. He did an excellent job of caring for my dog while me and my husband were away. He is the best!”
9. Tyler E.
“Absolutely amazing! Tyler went above and beyond with my Rey❤️ He told me stories about him and sent me pictures of him. Tyler is super flexible with time. I had a lot going on before leaving for a trip and ge was flexible with me and Rey. I appreciate him and how he treated my baby.”
10. Lisa C.
“We are so grateful to have found Lisa! She took such wonderful care of our fur baby, Willow, while we were away. The regular updates and photos were a great comfort, and it was clear that Willow was happy and well cared for. Lisa is reliable, trustworthy, and truly loves dogs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and loving environment for their pet. Thank you again for everything!”
11. Jean-Paul & Andrea H.
“Jean-Paul and Andee are AMAZING! I don’t even want to leave a review because I want to horde them for myself 😂 I received so many great updates and pics of my dog while I was away, and it made me so relieved and happy. They also were able to pivot and handle some vet things that popped up unexpectedly. Your dog will be happy, safe, and well loved in their home! Cannot recommend them enough!”
12. Asha C.
“Asha has a warm personality and is a quick thoughtful communicator. As soon as we met I knew my girl was in the right place. Thank you so much Asha💞”
13. Patches B.
“Patches was the absolute best watching our Gomi for 2 weeks! She was gracious to allow Gomi to stay a little earlier after I realized there was a timing mistake. She kept us updated regularly and had no problem taking care of our very anxious boy. Gomi also isn’t usually the type to hang around other dogs so I was pleasantly surprised to see he was doing just fine with the other dogs boarded or in residence ! Definitely will be taking Gomi back to patches again!!”
14. Maggie M.
“Maggie is the best with our dogs! She takes great care of them and our dogs LOVE to go stay with her! She socializes them, takes them for walks daily and provides us with lots of photos during their staying giving us peace of mind they are in good hands.”
15. Cheyanne W.
“Cheyanne was the BEST caregiver to my dog Leo. She sent me pictures of him enjoying his stay. She had excellent communication with me on how he was doing. She is a genuinely caring and conscientious person who loves animals. She went the extra mile to ensure Leo was well taken care of. I would recommend her with no reservations if you need a loving caregiver.”
16. Grant S.
“Grant was an awesome rover sitter! He fit my dog Spud in last minute and was extremely professional and reassuring with my dogs somewhat anxious and reactive tendencies. He also was very communicative and provided lots of photos and videos of spud. Definitely will be booking again!”
17. Manuela Diaz H.
“Manuela is a FANTASTIC rover - great communication, wonderful with my dog Cooper, and flexible when my plans changed. She sent multiple pictures/videos a day and Cooper came back happy and tired after playing with their dog Morgan. I was nervous leaving Coop while I traveled but Manuela really gave me peace of mind. I’ve already booked another stay for Coop and would highly recommend Manuela!”
18. Ryan P.
“Ryan was awesome! He kept me updated and sent pictures of my dog regularly. Leo (also a shih tzu) and Fritz together was so cute! My dog can be needy but there were no issues.”
19. Alex K.
“Love the daily feedback! They’re awesome”
20. Martie G.
“Martie is the absolute crème de la crème, and I couldn't be happier with entrusting my best bud to her! From the initial meeting, it was evident that Martie is a kind soul who possesses a genuine love for dogs and a deep understanding of their needs. Communication was seamless, and she sent regular updates and pics so that I felt assured that he was not just in good hands, but the best hands. She was also extremely flexible and patient when my return flight was unfortunately delayed by over 4 hours (sorry about that again)! Martie is, without a doubt, my go-to dog sitter from now on. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a caring, professional, and loving sitter for their dogs! Thank you so much, Martie! I cannot express enough how much I appreciate you for taking in Tycho last minute and for the peace of mind knowing he was in the best hands while I was away!”
