This was our first time using a dog sitter through Rover and Patti did not disappoint!!! I received multiple pictures each day with an update on how my pup was doing. Patti opened her house up to him and even took him to the park, on walks, etc. I’ve already set up another time for our little guy to stay. Thanks so much Patti!

I recently had the pleasure of boarding my Goldendoodle, Bruno, with Joseph for several days, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and attention he provided. From the moment I dropped Bruno off, Joseph's dedication to ensuring Bruno's comfort and happiness was evident. Throughout Bruno's stay, Joseph sent me multiple daily updates, including photos and videos, which truly put my mind at ease. It was clear that Joseph wasn't just looking after Bruno, but genuinely enjoying his company and providing him with the love and attention that he needed. Bruno seemed to be having a wonderful time, and I was delighted to see him so content in the updates I received. What particularly stood out to me was Joseph's flexibility and willingness to accommodate a last-minute extension to Bruno's stay. Despite the unexpected change in plans, Joseph was incredibly understanding and made the process seamless, which I greatly appreciated. Upon picking Bruno up, it was evident that he had been well-cared for and had formed a genuine bond with Joseph. Bruno was happy, healthy, and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his time. I cannot recommend Joseph highly enough for anyone seeking a caring and responsible individual to look after their furry family members. His genuine love for animals and his commitment to providing the best possible care make him an exceptional choice for pet boarding. I will undoubtedly be entrusting Joseph with Bruno's care in the future, knowing that he will be in excellent hands.

Courtney was absolutely amazing with my sweet girl and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of her over the Christmas holiday! She even got her a little Christmas present ❤️ Poppy had the best time playing with Banner and we will definitely be coming back the next time I have to travel without her!

We had a wonderful experience with Andy. Mocha was well cared for and enjoyed her stay. She tends to be a bit nervous in new situations, but she was right at home here and got along well with Jimmy. We will definitely have her stay again.

Catherine is an incredible lover of animals and, just like with her patients - registered RN, she is careful, loving, and compassionate. She has studied medication and pharmaceuticals and thus has no problems with special care animals. I could go on vacation and know that my animals would be walked, cuddled, fed, and worried over by a wonderfully competent provider.

Charlie recently spent two weeks with Olivia while we were out of town. While Charlie was excited to see us when we returned, he was equally as excited to see Olivia when we dropped him off! Olivia has been taking excellent care of Charlie since we moved to the area three years ago. We feel fortunate to know her.

Cecilia took good care of our Ida while my wife and I were out of town. She took time to introduce Ida to the other dogs there to give all the dogs the best chance of getting along. Ida went for one day of daycare before her boarding stay and seemed happy to be returning when we dropped her off. Cecilia was very responsive when we asked for updates and sent us some pictures of Ida while we where out of town. If I wasn't moving out of state I would happily send my dog back to Cecilia's for boarding or daycare!

Jackie watched our Beagle mix Jordan while we were away for a week. She treated our dog like family and it was a relief to know Jordan was in good hands! Jackie sent daily updates and photos during our vacation. We’re new to the neighborhood and she will be our primary sitter from now on!

My husband and I went away for a week and it is always hard, leaving our little one behind. Of all the times that I have used her over, I have felt the most with Vallicia. From the moment we met, I felt her warm spirit and her love for dogs. I was completely comfortable with being away, as I know he was in good hands. She kept us up-to-date with pictures, and I could tell our little one was having a great time! I would definitely use her again!
