1. Alex M.

“My number 1 choice when it comes to leaving my doggo anywhere. Constant contact, pictures, funny videos. Flexibility. My dog has only stayed once but that's all I needed to decide that Alex and Bethany are the perfect people. Thank you guys!”


2. Michal & John & William R.

“Michal&John have been an absolute god send. You can tell right away when you do the meet greet that they are very kind and also take what they do seriously. I recently adopted a puppy and they agreed to take care of her while I’m at work. I don’t know what I would do with out them. Now while I’m at work I don’t feel like I need to worry about my pup at all because she’s with great caring people. If you are considering a pet sitter look no further !”


3. Kristina F.

“Kristina and Jordan took such amazing care of my pup while I was away. Kristina and Jordan treated her with so much love, and sent many pictures and videos during the stay. I’m definitely an anxious pet parent, but their care actually allowed me to relax knowing that she was in the best hands possible and having a great little vacation of her own. I couldn’t recommend them more. Thank you guys so much!”


4. Angela & Tommy P.

“We had never used Rover before, and we couldn’t have asked for a better first experience! Thank you so much, Angela and Tommy, for taking such great care of Lisbon. It was clear from the moment we met you that she was in good hands. We’re so grateful for your kindness and professionalism. Lisbon seemed so happy and well cared for when we picked her up. We’ll definitely be reaching out to you again in the future. Thank you!”


5. Katie L.

“Katie took excellent care of Sadie while we were away on vacation - after meeting her during the meet and greet I felt super comfortable leaving Sadie at her house. Will absolutely use her again for any future vacations, she is quick to respond and very accommodating!”


6. Nell S.

“Nell was friendly, flexible about drop off/pick up, and so kind to our pup for her first stay away from us. Nell made our girl feel right at home and kept her happy in our absence.”


7. John S.

“John was great with our two senior labs and they felt right at home. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing they were content. Also easy to coordinate the booking / drop offs and John was easy to communicate with as well. Would definitely hire him again for care.”


8. Allison Nicole M.

“Allison was great to work with from our first contact with her – super responsive and organized. Our dog has a very specific medication schedule that Allison was able to accommodate, and we really appreciated the care she took in setting that up. We got updates while we were away, with pictures of our little guy enjoying lots of attention from the whole family! It was a great experience, and we have already booked a return stay. We would definitely recommend Allison.”


9. James E.

“From the first contact, I loved James' response. He first asked about meeting Neo to see if he would be a good match for his family, which gave me peace. He kept in contact by sending us pics and updates during our time away. No regrets! 🙏🏻”


10. Karina S.


“Another stay for our dog Milo and another fantastic experience. Milo was so excited to see Karina and again he received the best care while we were away. Couldn’t ask for a better person to care for our dog. Highly recommended!!”


11. MJ M.

“MJ was fantastic with my baby! She was a referral from a close friend so I felt really at ease dropping remi off for a long weekend. She took time to help remi warm up to a new environment (separation anxiety), sent lots of pics and stayed in communication every day. I picked up a happy and tired pup! We’re definitely booking again, see you soon!! 💝🐾🦴”


12. Marc L.

“Marc helped us out in a bind with our 2 pups when I needed them watched over quickly for several days. One of our pups has seizures and Marc kept us in the know when our boy had an episode. We got pictures and daily updates. Overall a really good experience. Thanks so much Marc!”


13. Teresa D.

“From the moment we did the meet and greet I knew that I would feel comfortable having Teresa watch my little love Alfie. Teresa has her own rescue dog pack and they included Alfie immediately and he was so happy. Teresa kept me updated throughout his stay and sent daily pictures. I felt totally at ease and was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. I’m already planning to book with her again for my upcoming trips.”


14. Cruz Maria D.

“If I could give 12 Stars I would. Responsive, LOVES our horribly behaved dog, sends pictures, and is just a pleasure to interact with. Maria is the absolute best.”


15. Shelby L.

“Shelby asked great questions before we decided to have her watch Shadow for us so we weee comfortable with his care. She kept in touch and sent pictures and status through out the week. We will be reaching out in the future again.”


16. Ciara A.

“Ciara is the best without a doubt! Will absolutely be booking with her again she’s amazing! I trust Ciara with my dog she treated him like her own pet and she was very great with communicating and sends lots of pictures. Ciara does not disappoint she’s the best pet sitter I have ever met and known and she’s very professional. Thank you Ciara I look forward to my next booking with you! 🫶🏼”

18. Linda M.

“Linda, Angie and her family gave my social cat Julien so much affection and playtime. He’s an active boy and needs people to interact with throughout the day. They let him explore and blend into the family routine and he came home relaxed and chatty. I am so grateful!”


19. Kim M.


“Kim watched our elderly Yorkie while we were away for a week. She was always quick to reply to any questions or concerns we had leading up to his stay. During our time away, she stayed in touch and sent pictures. She informed us that our dog was comfortable and already into a routine which we were so happy to hear since we know how anxious he can be when he is away from home. We felt at peace while away. We will DEFINITELY book her again!!!”


20. Mary Ann P.
