Tien-Tien did an incredible job taking care of Scout! We were so happy to see all of the photo updates and the joy in Scout’s face in every one! We would absolutely book with Tien-Tien again, who took great care in learning Scout’s routine and behaviors to give her everything she needed during her stay. Thanks again!!

Abby and her friend Hannah are ALWAYS my first call when I need a sitter for my dog, Charlie. They are above and beyond kind and caring. They have picked up on all of her habits and favorite things, and treat her so well while she’s in their care. When we begin walking toward their apartments, Charlie will become SO excited and start running to their place. They are very communicative and always send pictures and updates. They’re also super flexible, even letting me drop off Charlie at 5am and being understanding of return travel complications. I’m so appreciative of them and how well they treat my Charlie. They are truly the best!!!!

Kelsey + Ian were the best sitters we could have asked for! In fact, we’re concerned our dog Arthur might like them more than us!! They were wonderful communicators, sent us lots of photos, and took Arthur on tons of fun walks/adventures. We are so grateful to them for treating him so well, and it really allowed us to take a worry-free trip!

Irina was amazing!! This was the first time i had left my pup with someone on rover and was very nervous. My dog is 7 years old and has some weird quirks- but couldn’t ask better than Irina! She got so many walks and I got so many pictures and videos of her while I was away. Her place is nice and clean and after the first day I knew my dog was in good hands!

Christie and Dan were wonderful! Christie was super responsive and shared pictures and videos with us throughout Romeo’s stay. They brought him on walks and hikes and kept him very active. Romeo loved playing with their adorable dog, Bao Bao. We highly recommend Christie and Dan and we will certainly be using them in the future!

As a cat dad himself, he knows how important and loved our pets are. You can trust Kyle to love and care for your pet as much as you do.

I can’t recommend Lily enough! She was amazing! I had a last minute work trip and had to leave my puppy for the first time. She eased my anxiety immediately. We had a call before and she answered any questions I had and made sure she knew everything Fenway needed. She sent me updates regularly right after I dropped him off throughout the day/evening which was so appreciated. Fenway was instantly comfortable and playing with her! She will definitely be my go to anytime I travel. Thank you so much Lily!!

Emily took wonderful care of Maggie while we were out of town! She provided great updates and photos every day. Maggie got a little sick during her stay, and Emily was prompt to communicate with us, and took amazing care of her. She really went above and beyond, treating Maggie like her own pet. Thank you so much Emily!!

Colin was a fantastic sitter for our Aussie for a week while we were on vacation. He provided daily updates about our pup's day with plenty of photos and was extremely willing to tailor his care for her around the routine she keeps at home with us. His two dogs are extremely sweet, gentle, and welcoming for new dogs to join their pack; it made me happy to know our pup was so thoughtfully cared for while we were gone!

Julia was an amazing dog sitter! She is super fast at responding and also sends tons of photos and updates. Einstein normally takes time to warm up to strangers but he warmed up to her immediately at drop off. He is slightly a nervous and skittish dog and she ensured he was taken care of while I was out of town. So glad I booked with her!

Philip was very responsive to my communications leading up to Chloe's stay and during the stay. He sent multiple updates with photos every day which allowed me to relax while I was away. She got plenty of attention and walks! from him and his son. (Chloe slept in son's bed. 😃). I can recommend Philip to take good care of your dog! Thank you Philip!

Victoria was so lovely and accommodating — she agreed to meet up with us before we booked for a meet and greet to put us at ease and allow our pup to get to know her. Victoria was so vigilant with Birdie and noticed that she had developed an eye irritation — she not only reached out to the vet for a phone consultation but also sent us photos so we could make the best decision for Birdie while we were out of town. She kept us updated on every moment of the process putting us at ease and helping to alleviate our stress. Would highly recommend Victoria and will definitely book again!

So happy that Alexa was able to care for our Chloe while we were away for the week! Chloe came home a happy pup and we will definitely be using Alexa again when we're out of town. Alexa was super flexible with us on pickup/drop-off and I loved getting the updates and pictures of their time together. Chloe needs medication and Alexa kept her on track and that is something I'm really appreciative of!

Ethan was prompt for both drop off and pickup, and I loved receiving frequent videos and pictures showing how happy my dog was. My dog was upbeat and healthy when I picked him up. It was nice to leave him with someone I could trust.
