We enjoyed the pictures we got of our dog’s stay. The communication was awesome! Our dog is still tired! We felt like he was in great hands and would gladly choose Whitney and her husband to watch our dog again!

Our Louis is a 5-month old yorkiepoo, weighs 6 pounds, and has never stayed with anyone other than family. We were apprehensive about leaving him with non-family for 5 days while we cruised but did not have a choice. We searched Rover, chatted with a few people, found Nontombe and the end result is that we (and apparently Louis) completely adore Nontombe. Nontombe sent us videos and pictures and it was clear to see Louis was right at home with someone who loved on him and played with him. We were also worried about how Louis would get along with the other dogs being cared for but Nontombe outlined her plan to us to introduce Louis and what would happen if the dogs did not get along and the videos and pictures of Louis and the other dogs made us feel even more comfortable. It was also clear to us that Nontombe loves animals and is great with them. We recommend her for the care of your young and older fur babies and personally, we won’t use anyone else.

Eileen was fantastic! As soon as we met Eileen, we knew our baby would be in good hands while we were away! She really put our minds at ease and sent us pics or a video each day while we were away. Scout was clearly having a good time while we were away and was well taken care of by Eileen!

I was very pleased coming across Halley to board my fur baby, Niko. She is super nice and was a pleasure to work with. I can tell Niko had a great night with her and had a lot of fun time because he’s been napping on and off since pick up. I love how she is proactive and I will most definitely book again.

Our pups had another great stay with Debbie! From the pictures Debbie sent, we could tell that Zoey and Victor had a great time playing with the other pups :) I'm sure they can't wait to go back this coming Friday.

Jessica was just amazing! My dog loved her and her fur babies!! She was exactly the perfect fit for my older sometimes grumpy girl. Jessica was easy to communicate with in the app. and very responsive. Overall, the best experience and I felt she far exceeded my expectations as this was my first Rover pet experience. Highly recommend her!!

Augusta was wonderful with our dog when we were on a week-long trip. She took great care of him and made sure he had lots of play and outside time! She was also accommodating when our travel plans changed on our way home to pick him up. I'd recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!

Wendy is outstanding! She was able to take my Rosie at almost literally the last minute when I needed a sitter with no other dogs. She kept me updated and sent pictures. Best of all, she walked Rosie 30 - 40 minutes at least twice a day, not including little jaunts down a few houses. Rosie is extra spoiled now! I definitely recommend Wendy and look forward to taking Rosie to see her again!

Michael was the best sitter ever for my fur baby! He came to us for a meet and greet, he also agreed to pick/ drop off which was a huge plus for our situation. Mike was very nice, friendly and understanding. I really hope we can keep Michael as our sitter for Winter, thank you so much again!!

This was our first time having someone that wasn't family watch our fur babies. I was very nervous but after we had the meet and greet with Veronica we knew we found the right person! During their stay we got tons of updates/pics and our fur babies didn't want to leave! They had so much fun. We will definitely have Veronica babysit our fur babies anytime we need. An amazing experience for our first babysitter!

Maggie was AWESOME. This was my first time leaving my furbabies with someone else and I would recommend her 100x’s. She sent pictures and kept me up to date, which I LOVED. My dogs loved her and her dog as well, which made it easier to not worry. I will definitely be going back to her if needed.
