“Absolutely 5 stars! From the minute we met Karine and Ryan, we knew they were the right people to care for our dog while we were away. Karine completed a detailed questionnaire at the Meet and Greet which ensured that she knew all of Stanley's needs, routines, etc. When we dropped Stanley off for his stay, Karine and Ryan were friendly, confident and reassuring. Karine sent us great pictures and updates throughout our trip and really made us feel that Stanley was the top priority. When we picked Stanley up, it was obvious that he had really enjoyed his stay - while excited to see us, he was not anxious in any way. Karine and Ryan could not have been kinder to us or our dog and we look forward to having Stanley stay again with them many times!”


“Judy was amazing! It was Chief’s first time with her and he fell in love! Super communicative- great with updates and photos! We can’t wait until Chief gets to stay with Judy again!”


“Carrigan was a wonderful sitter for our pup, Shea. We just moved from NYC and I wasn’t sure how Shea would fare in the suburbs but Carrigan and her dogs were so sweet and playful. Shea had a wonderful time and I would definitely recommend her as a sitter for anyone looking.”



“We were so grateful to find Richard before a week long trip to Iceland. Riley had a great place to stay with a big, fenced in back yard and lots of love and play. He had a few puppy friends to play with, but he doesn't take too many dogs at a time so it wasn't overwhelming for our only-child pup. I highly recommend him!”


“Judith and her family were the perfect hosts. She made it so easy to book with her timely response and was flexible in accommodating my dog fairly last minute. Our dog is a senior and requires meds. She was very willing to accommodate him and went out of her way to do lighter walks and play. Her dogs and kids were all very welcoming and my dog came home happy, well fed, rested and content. She sent regular updates and photos so we knew he was safe and happy. We are so grateful for Judith and her family!”


“Rosa always takes great care of Rover. She’s super communicative, sends lots of pics and Rover comes home healthy and happy. Rosa is also wonderfully accommodating and you can tell she really loves our pup.”


“Lindsey is excellent! I would enthusiastically recommend her. She was detailed and caring with our coonhound Reba. Lindsey carefully introduced her dogs to Reba and they seemed to hit it off (including cute videos of them playing together). Her dogs are gentle and friendly, so it was nice to know Reba was getting social time in while we were away! Lindsey was detailed about Reba’s diet, schedule, walks, etc. She asked questions to make sure she understood all her needs. She was completely responsive and available. She sent just the right amount of pictures and videos. Thank you so much, we are so glad we found you!”


“Tina and her husband took wonderful care of my Lucy. They were quick to respond/schedule a meet and greet and were very receptive of all of Lucy’s personality quirks. They were flexible with drop off/pick up, provided great updates, and were very communicative. Lucy will definitely be back!”


“Frank did an exceptional job taking care of our puppy. On the way home, she shared how attentive (her words!!!) and caring he is. He even has a magical way of creating an open parking space right when it's time to drop her off. Highly recommend Frank for taking care of your fur baby : )”


“Nandita took great care of my rambunctious, attention seeking golden retriever Alf! She sent update pictures frequently and seemed to genuinely love spending time with Alf. Her dog Ozzy had lots of energy and played so nicely with Alf and I’m sure he’s be happy to stay at their home any time!”


“I can’t recommend enough Kellwin for doing an amazing job, taking care of Khloe. From the very beginning communication was clear and prompt. He created a space for dog parents new to Rover to ask questions and share information. Throughout the entire stay we received regular updates and the cutest pictures of Khloe that helped ease our minds. It was clear that Khloe was happy and in great hands. Should there ever be another need for dog sitting, we will be looking to rebook with Kellwin. Thank you again for taking such great care of Khloe.”


“Oriana was so friendly, attentive to my dog’s needs, highly communicative, and very flexible when my schedule changed and I needed to change my pickup/dropoff times. She also has a huge, fenced-in backyard that is perfect for playing! Will certainly be rebooking with her again.”


“Melissa is a thoughtful and caring dog-sitter. She told me she loves dogs and it show in all her actions when she dog sat my labradoodle. She read him very well and met his emotional needs.”


“Like many of us, my Ziggy is like my child. So when I have to leave town, I always try to bring him. This time, I couldn’t, and was worried about who would care for him while I was on vacation…until I met Monika. Monika is absolutely lovely and cared for Ziggy like she would her own dog. Ziggy felt like he was part of her family. To be honest, I don’t think he really missed me at all lol. When Ziggy came home, it was obvious he had a great stay with her. Monika sent pictures every day and let me know that Ziggy was having a great time. There’s nobody else I’ll leave my dog with!! Thank you so much Monika!!”

“Wonderful with our little old girl . Took great care of her and sent adorable pics letting us know how she was doing during her stay. Responds quickly to texts which is a plus ! Highly recommend and will definitely use again for our puppers !”

Wendy sent many photos and videos and was very quick and easy to communicate with. I would 100% recommend Wendy to anyone looking for someone to trust their dog with!”
