“Sandy is fantastic! We were a little nervous leaving Gus for his first week away from home, but he had a blast. Sandy was great about sending updates, pics, and is very responsive to texts. He had a lot of furry friends to keep him occupied. She met with us prior to booking so that Gus could get to know her a little bit. We were really impressed with Sandy's ability to recognize Gus' stress and nervousness when he was away from us. She is knowledgeable and extremely lovely to work with. We will definitely be working with Sandy again.”

“Lajetta is an exceptional caretaker. She is intuitive, warm, thoughtful and communicative. I would recommend her to anyone! My doggy was so well loved and cared for during his stay with Lajetta!”

“Thank you for taking such great care of our pups, Paul & Arnell! It's clear that you extended a lot of patience and care with our very active furbabies. And you two helped us feel so at ease with taking a long weekend vacation. We loved the photos and updates throughout the weekend and we really appreciate your hospitality and welcoming character. No doubt our babes were right at home while staying with you!”

“Milo has found his GO TO sitter🔥. Chris was amazing to work with and mind if i say very flexible and communicative. Our Milo had a blast staying with Chris And of course Bear and Cosmo. I would highly recommend his service to anyone. How he took the time to really get to know Milo is one thing but building a bond with him in such a short period of time is amazing. Really appreciate you Chris and looking forward to using your services again!”

“Lisa sent us pictures and updates while she cared for our pups which was really comforting . One of our dogs is very old and we were a little concerned about him. But he did great. Lisa clearly took good care of both of them as they were happy and healthy when I picked them up.She didn't bat an eye when I brought over special food. We will always call on Lisa when we go out of town!”

“Annika, John, and Pepper were great! We boarded our dog for the first time with strangers and he was understandably a bit anxious (and so were we). But they were great hosts and very responsive and extremely responsible. Pepper was a gracious host. Felix had a great time overall!”


“You can’t do better than leaving your dog with Holly! We were headed out of state and were nervous about the heatwave, etc during the summer, but after meeting Holly and seeing where Joey would be in “doggy vacation”, we knew it would be a great fit. Joey hardly wanted to leave! We will be return customers again and again. Thank you holly and family!!!”

“Peter is just the best. He takes great care of our old dog, and he's so easy to communicate and coordinate with. We highly recommend Peter, and already have our next stay with him on the calendar.”

“Briana again was great! Roxy is clearly very comfortable around her and her two dogs. Briana sends photo and text updates daily and treats Roxy like her own. Will be using her again!”

“Barry and Shaka were fantastic! I could tell from Molly’s energy and attitude when I picked her up that she had a great time and was well cared for. I hope Barry will be available for future trips, though I know he’s in high demand.”

“My pugs loved staying with Amy and her family! They got lots of love and attention, and enjoyed hanging out with Amy's personal pugs. Amy sent pictures and updates frequently, which made me feel much better about leaving my fur kids for a few days. I will definitely rebook the next time I need to go out of town.”
“I was very excited to find Rosemary, after my original Rover sitter cancelled on me. We did a Meet and Greet beforehand, and Rosemary was so warm and friendly. I immediately felt at ease, and assured that the dogs would be in good hands. From beginning to end, Rosemary was very communicative, responded quickly, and followed up when she said she would. She sent updates and pics of how the dogs were doing during their stay. Rosemary understood the needs of our dogs. We will definitely use Rosemary in the future. She is a breath of fresh air, and a great sitter!”


“Our cat and dog were left in good hands with Leah and Chris. We got daily feedback and pictures. We could tell our dog got the exercise he needed and daily activities. In the past when we picked up our cat at sitters he comes to us ready to come home, but this time he just laid there looking at us in the other room, ignoring us when we called him to come. You can tell our animals were well taken care of and were happy.”

“Nancy was great with our Australian Labradoodle! He seemed to really enjoy his time with her and she sent us some fun photos and videos of their play time! Thanks Nancy we will definitely use you again :)”

“Chom Chom had a wonderful stay with Heath & Amy! They made sure he had plenty of time outside and lots of snuggles. Chom got a lot well with all the other pups and had a great time!”

Woodlawn dog parents share their Rover experiences
Christopher's was absolutely the perfect set up for my two dogs. Christopher just has that sensibility about dogs, which is not easy to find. My dogs got along great with his two pups and returned home happy and pooped out. It was so nice to be able to leave town and have no worries about the dogs. Without a doubt we will be using Christopher in the future!
Amber takes such excellent care of our boy Dobby! He obviously feels at home with Amber and her family, and she went above and beyond to provide accommodations to give him more stability (he's a tripod). Dobby is also acting more confident with other dogs after playing with Ambers dogs for a long weekend. Bonus for his socialization! Highly recommend:)

Emiline is the best! We are repeat clients, and I can’t say enough good things about Emiline. She is communicative, thoughtful, warm, and considerate, and goes above and beyond in all ways. I never worry about our sensitive and nervous dog when she’s in Emiline’s care—I know Emiline will take excellent care of her.

Clarissa was wonderful! I haven't left my pup in another home in years and she made me feel super secure with leaving him. Came over to visit and get to know his routines and was so flexible with his stay- Working around my crazy trips! So glad to know Clarissa is available and I have someone I can trust close by!

Bryan is a gem with dogs. The first time Gilly stayed with Bryan, she was nervous and a bit on edge. Bryan calmed her and they ultimately had a successful time together. The second time I dropped Gilly for a long weekend, I was a bit apprehensive about how she’d react to being left again. The moment she saw Bryan, she was THRILLED and strutted away without so much as a glance back. She clearly feels at ease with him, which is so reassuring. Further, he’s extremely kind, responsive, and flexible. We will 1000% be reaching out to Bryan for future dog sitting needs!

Can’t recommend Brittany enough! They were super patient and thoughtful with our anxious pup, and kept us updated with pictures and the latest on how she was doing. They really understood our dogs needs and what the situation called for. Highly recommend you use them if you need a sitter!

This is the second time Christine and Steven have watched our two small dogs and we couldn’t be happier. Leaving your dogs can be very stressful but Christine and Steven made it obvious that they were being cared for the whole time. We will definitely use them again in the future.
