“I think my Sam had a great time with Cynthia and family…and he was so lucky that Cynthia’s daughter was there with her little dog Reggie, so he had a playmate the whole time he was there (9days). Cynthia watered her plants outside and my Sam loves to be watered also. And with the very hot weather, he enjoyed it. Will be returning!”

I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring Rover sitter!”

I would absolutely trust Alivia to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter!”

“Our dogs enjoyed their weekend of boarding with Scott! His home which includes a large fenced in backyard was a great place for our dogs to play, graze, and hang out during the day. Scott was accommodating to our schedule, a good communicator, and trustworthy. Would recommend!”

Morgan did such an amazing job of taking care of our pup. This was our first time using Rover and leaving her with a non-family member, so we were a bit nervous but Morgan immediately put us at ease. She was so thoughtful, caring, and attentive. Bella stayed with Morgan for a week and we were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing she was in the best hands possible being well taken care of and spoiled while we were away. We would recommend Morgan to anyone without the slightest hesitation and will absolutely trust Morgan to care for Bella during future vacations! Thank you again, Morgan!

Karina is a wonderful pet sitter, she sent us pictures and a video of our Coco while pet sitting here. Coco seemed to enjoy the time with her and even though Coco and her cat Sylvia didn't get along, everything went just fine, Karina manage to make it work. I would definitely book with her next time again!!

Elizabeth was super accommodating when our travel plans kept us an extra day longer (snow storm). She was very good at communicating with us by sending picture and video updates but not over the top where it was too much. Our dog Zeus had a blast and we would definitely have him stay with her and her family again!
