Spencer and Amelia always keep in touch and send pictures and videos of my dog’s daily life. They are amazing, definitely will choose them again for next time. During last 20 days, my dog is well taken cared. He is accompanied by Spence and Amelia’s two sweet dogs. I can tell he loves this family very much.

Lucas was great with Daisy! He and his partner took great care of her while I was away for the day. They were super accommodating and friendly, I would definitely bring her back if I ever needed a sitter again!

David and Austin are absolutely wonderful. Fenrir stayed with them for Christmas and had an amazing time. David is so caring and thoughtful we didn't worry about Fen at all because we constantly got pictures and videos showing how much fun he was having. David even took Fen to get a picture with Santa!! We've already booked our next stay ❤️

My senior dog Chester stayed with Ben for 12 days. It was our first time leaving him with anyone but family so I felt a bit nervous. Having him with Ben couldn’t have been a better experience for Chester and for us. We got photos and video updates daily; Ben is an excellent communicator and I felt so at ease having him care for Chester while we were away. He got lots of outdoor time and tons of attention. I think now that he’s back at home he misses Ben and his two pups! I can’t thank him enough for his dedication. 10/10 recommend; I’ll definitely be booking with Ben again.

Had a perfect experience with Kelly and William. I needed a dog sitter in a pinch and was happy and fortunate to have found them. They were very kind, great at communication and treated my boy Marshall like he was lounging at home. I've never used a dog sitter from Rover before and was nervous, but upon meeting Kelly and William I felt very comfortable and confident Marshall was in the best of hands. Frequent pictures and message updates were much appreciated. He made himself right at home, had a companion to hang out with and was spoiled and taken on a nice long walks. Hope to be fortunate enough to spoil Marshall with a sleepover in the near future with Kelly and William!

Rich has been a friend of mine for many years. Over these years I've trusted him with pet-sitting, house sitting, baby sitting, chair sitting, etc. and he has proven himself exemplary at all of them. Recommending Rich for anything is very easy; because even putting our friendship aside, he excels at everything. Recommending that Rich is worthy of trust to a stranger? To care for your pet and enter your home? Yes, this is extremely easy to do as well. It isn't because he's trustworthy to me that I can do this, it's because it's somewhat impossible to picture Rich being untrustworthy to anyone. I could go on at great length, but the bottom line is that if you hire Rich to care for your pet you'll see straight away what an excellent decision it was.

Jenna's dog sitting services are nothing short of exceptional! From the moment I dropped off Mylo, it was evident that Jenna's genuine love for animals shines through in her care. She went above and beyond to understand Mylo's individual needs, providing tailored attention. What truly amazed me was the positive transformation in Mylo's demeanor after their stay with Jenna - they returned calmer and better behaved than ever before. Additionally, Jenna's attention to detail was remarkable; she even took the initiative to clean Mylo's ears, ensuring his overall health and comfort were a top priority. Jenna's excellent communication and regular updates gave me peace of mind throughout the entire process. Without a doubt, Jenna is an amazing person and a remarkable dog sitter, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking top-notch care for their beloved pets.

Brandon has watched my cat Millie a few times. And he's great with her. He's always ontime, actually early, and he's always got a smile on his face and so easy to talk to. Clean, presentable and just an over all great guy. He's always clean after he leaves and Millie seems to be in a happy mood after he leaves. I, and Millie, are glad we came across Brandon.

Megan M has a deep love and appreciation for any and all dogs that come into her life. She brings a genuine mix of care for the animals and understanding of them that give animals a sense of security unlike I've seen in any other person. As well as demonstrating a long standing love for her own dog, she also often cares for my own two dogs. One of my dogs, Rosemary, is extremely wary of newcomers because she is a rescue and has some mild behavioral quirks. She generally takes many weeks, if not months, to become accustomed to new people, and sometimes even longer for her to show any affection to them. On the second meeting that Meg had with Rosemary, Rosemary let Meg pet her and even gave her a little smooch. I was floored that my rescue was able to feel so comfortable around her so soon, but I learned that this is not an isolated incident, and dogs do generally feel quite reassured by her presence. If I was thinking of someone to look after my dogs (who honestly both need a decent amount of care and have some specific routines that need to be followed) I would think of no one else but Meg. Her understanding of dogs, trustworthiness and maturity, as well as her brilliant personality is clearly understood by humans and animals alike. I think that dogs can sense that she absolutely loves them and returns the feelings onto her. She can look after my pets any day no questions asked.

Oh my goodness! I left my pup with Nik for 10 days and they were so incredible! They kept me updated and sent videos, and it was clear that Candy was not only being taken care of, but genuinely cared for. With Nik looking after Candy I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries about our sweet dog back home. Plus our pup had the benefit of spending time with Nik’s dog as well. They went for walks, on social adventures, and Nik was so good about Candy and her various anxieties. Nik was able to get her to eat (which sometimes she doesn’t even want to do for me!) and eased her into a routine. When I picked her up she was excited to see me, but definitely had bonded with Nik. I’m so very glad to have found the perfect match for my pup, and I’m so happy to be able to recommend Nik whole-heartedly! I feel as if Candy has new friends, and a person who I can trust to look after her when we go away again, and that is super special!
