“Diana and Brian were wonderful! They were knowledgeable, responsive, caring, and very loving to our puppy while we were out of town. They sent lots of pictures and updates. We couldn't have asked for better providers!”
“What a fantastic experience from start to finish! Our dogs loved staying with Will and his dogs! He responds promptly and we were able to set up a meet and greet easily. As soon as my daughter and I met Will and Fiasco, we knew it was a perfect match. Our rescue dog, Finley who is skittish with new people, warned up to Will after just a few minutes. Best sign - dogs know. My high energy mini Aussies loved running and playing in his yard. Running the fence with the neighbor dogs too. Will texted a couple of times a day with pictures of my tuckered out dogs, hoorah!!! Will is such a nice guy. You can instantly tell how much he loves his dogs and his day care dogs. We are so thrilled to now have a place to board our dogs, where the dogs love to stay. Can’t wait to use him for doggy day care and boarding going forward. Truly a 10 star experience.”
“Our Riley girl had so much fun! Huge yard to run and play with the other dogs! Consistent communication too! Thank you so much for watching our girl 😊”
“Daisy is always so upbeat when she comes home. I want my old girl to be happy when we are gone, and she seems to flourish under Sydney's care.”
“Ellie is just so sweet and attentive! Our dogs very much enjoyed themselves with her. Ellie communicated with us every day with updates and photos!”
“Michelle and Christy are phenomenal!! They watched my energetic golden retriever for 11 days over the holidays. Having met them a few weeks prior to the extended Rover visit, it was clear that they are really great people, whose positive qualities directly translated into the great amount of care they provided for Mr. Chips during his stay. The amount of updates and open communication they were willing to provide throughout the stay also made a world of difference. Seeing chips having tons of fun totally removed any sense of the worry I would have had leaving him for the 11 days. To top it off, they have a huge fenced in back yard, perfect for doggies to run and play in - and 2 cute dogs for Mr. Chips to play with. 10 out of 10.”
“Enas was great, really nice! My Rocco, was a little nervous but she was so gentle and caring with him. She stayed in touch and sent pictures throughout the day. Thanks Enas!”
“Rhett had a blast and was cared for like family! Couldn't ask for a better doggie care provider. Only disappointment is that Rover puts a limit on tips.”
“Karen and Tom, you guys are the best! Ruka has been missing you since she got back home. Thanks for making her part of the family. You are such wonderful people and provide peace of mind. Thanks for everything you do.”
“Tami Was amazing with my Bruno! She was caring and attentive to his medication needs. Her dogs played very well with mine and he had a blast I could tell by the pictures he felt right at home which made traveling much easier for me! Thank you Tammy I will be back”
“Grace was so wonderful and absolutely amazing with my dog! She was so flexible when I wanted to set up a meet and greet with her dog. She sent regular updates over our stay, pictures, and videos. Arya had so much fun playing with Bella and being able to relax afterward. I felt that my dog was safe and Grace was easily contactable whenever I messaged her. I will definitely be reaching out to Grace again whenever I need a sitter for my dog and I would definitely recommend her!”
“I can not be more happy with the wonderful loving care Tammy gave my baby girl! She was so kind in sending updates and pictures! I would recommend her to anyone! Thank you so much.”
“Beth was excellent! This was a great experience, I would definitely recommend Beth (and her sweet little dog Gracie!) and will be sure to reach out to her again when needed. Thank you so much, Beth!”
“Vanessa and her family were AWESOME with my puppy Paisley. Pictures were sent frequently and my puppy was very happy. I will definitely be using Vanessa again when I need a sitter.”
“We left 4 dogs with Julie, while on a family vacation. They seemed very happy when we picked them up! We also received daily updates and pics of all of them! I would highly recommend her😊”
“We had a wonderful experience with Estefania! She loved on and spoiled Maizy and we will definitely visit her again! She shared lots of photos and videos and we always knew our puppy was in good hands! A big thank you to Estefania and her family!!”
“We were pleased with our new pet sitter. Ana was kind, gentle,and caring to our senior dog, Buster. He was happy when we came home after our 5 day get away. We loved hearing from Ana and receiving pictures of Buster. Thank you, Ana”
“My husband and I were very pleased with Savanna. Our Yorkie has separation and storm anxieties that we thought would make dog sitting impossible! She never did well as a puppy, and we just never tried again (only with relatives) ...until now (she is 11 yrs old). Savanna's TLC proved us wrong. We loved her and the special care she gave to our sweetie. She actually cuddled next to Savanna while relaxing! Nothing more comforting when your away. We made a perfect choice, and would not hesitate to ask Savanna again and again. Much Thanks Savanna!!”
About: My love for animals goes along way. My family has always brought rescues to me since I was a teenager. I'd care for them, bathe, love , train them, and if I could, I'd give them sanctuary. Due to ongoing home improvement projects, my weekly schedule is quite flexible, allowing me to easily accommodate to pet care needs of mine and others. I have a pet room in the works. Where i have dog food and clothing located. Along with treats and any medical pet needs. I have a fenced in back yard that gives my two pets freedom to roam.

“Sesily has helped care for my pet numerous times and this has been a huge accommodation for my travel. Sesily contributes favorable characteristics and attributes to caring for a pet: such as time management, professionalism, attention to detail, and effective communication, ...just to name a few. It only took a couple of appointments for me to gain peace of mind and confidence with knowing my pet was in good care. 100% gold stars for Sesily.”

Fairmont dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kelly took great care of my Muffie, she is older and blind so I was really worried. I would differently use her again.
The best !! Excellent communication, I was sent pictures daily. My dog looked happy and content. She seemed so anxious when I dropped her off and I had never had to board her before, I am so grateful to Sarah and her family for treating my dog like family. If I ever need to board her again, Sarah will be my first choice. I’m so happy and Lucy is so happy.
