1. Ashley M.
“Ashley was great and took great care of our dog. She was communicative and sent a bunch of photos to make sure we were updated on how he was doing. Took him to the dog park, on walks, etc. Made us feel completely at ease while we were on a trip.”
2. Xue G.
“Xue was an incredible sitter. It was my first time leaving my puppy and she made me feel at ease while I was away. She wore him out at the dog park and I received several picture and video updates throughout the stay. She was also understanding when my pup had a couple of accidents inside- which I’m extremely grateful for. For peace of mind and trust that your pet is well taken care of, I highly recommend Xue :)”

4. Kielyn J.
“Kielyn is awesome! My dog is very large and high-energy. Kielyn knew how to handle him and took him to the park numerous times to get him exercise. Kielyn is great at communicating and it helped me enjoy my trip knowing that my dog was well taken care of. I highly recommend!”
5. Joanna K.
“Joanna did an amazing job taking care of my two year old Golden Retriever, Diego! He stayed with her for a week and during that time I received many updates and pictures which I truly appreciated. She went above and beyond and took him on many walks, provided many cuddles and kept me updated during the whole trip. She was incredibly accommodating and she met with Diego and I before the boarding to ensure I was comfortable with everything. I will continue to use her in the future and highly recommend her.”
6. Morgan D.
“Morgan was excellent with Mia, Mia needed extra care and attention and was nervous as it was her first time boarding and Morgan was super accommodating, caring and considerate. She was super kind and attentive, even remembering special things about Mia and always thinking of her comfort and safety.”
7. Gillian K.
“I was very anxious to leave my pup but they put my worries to rest providing regular updates and pictures, very responsive, made sure my pup was comfortable and cared for while I was away. My pup can be a very picky eater and they went out of their way to make sure she was eating. Thankful for their care and would book with them again!”
8. Sophie R.
“Sophie was a fantastic sitter for my 5 month old kitten, Copper! She sent several photos and videos which reassured me that Copper felt right at home with her.”
9. Daniel A.
“Daniel was great, I left my dog Fred with him while I was away. Sent me regular updates and was very responsive. It’s clear that he cares for dogs. Would happily go to him again for dog boarding. Thanks again!”
10. Alexandra S.
“I’ve known Alex for a while now and she’s an animal lover, she genuinely enjoys caring for them and likes to look after them when she can”
11. Andrew T.
“Andrew was super responsive and gave updates with pictures and videos throughout the entire week that Cheddar was boarding. It was the longest I've been away from my pup and while I missed him dearly, I felt really comfortable knowing he was taken care of so well. Definitely recommend!”
12. Jennifer N.
“Had my 2 pups stay with Jennifer for 10 days. She was really great about sending me videos and letting me know how they were doing everyday. She was also really flexible when my flight back was delayed and I had to pick up my dogs a few hours later than originally planned. I can tell my dogs had a lot of fun at their house by how worn out they are lol I will definitely use Jennifer's serviced again in the future and would highly recommend!”
13. Jake W.
“Jake was great with Lincoln. He followed our date instructions and sent a ton of pics throughout the weekend. Lincoln was extra excited to play with Jake’s puppy too. Every pic he sent, Link was smiling. Highly recommend.”
14. Joye E.
“Thank you so much for keeping blu. You were just what the doctor ordered as her parents are both unable to care for her right now. Joye was attentive and patient and very responsive even to my late night text. Well worth the price. Can't out $$ on peace of mind.”
15. Rachel W.
“Rachel was great! It was our first time leaving our pup so it took a while for my dog to warm up. Rachel was patient and kind with her and she was a happy pup when we picked her up. :)”
16. Barbara M.
“A+++++!!!! Barbara and Chewy were absolutely incredible hosts!! We can't say enough about how thoughtful, generous, kind, and communicative that Barbara was during our trip. We were very anxious about leaving our dog (this was our first time using Rover), and she put us at ease, sent frequent updates (including pictures and videos), and was extremely thorough, dedicated, and friendly, and followed our care instructions extremely seriously. Her dog Chewy is a sweetheart who seems to be great as a co-host :) We absolutely recommend Barbara to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter, and we are so grateful to her for this experience!”
17. Nate N.
“Nate was fantastic watching my 10-month dog over the weekend. He was very considerate and accommodating in making sure my dog was comfortable, got plenty of exercise, and stayed out of trouble. He is clearly very good with dogs and even asked about rules of our house so that he could give my dog a consistent environment for training. Thank you so much, Nate!!”
18. Dion F.
“It’s always a little nerve wracking when you’re away from your pup for an extended period, but Dion was great with Brix! He was patient, kind, communicative and gave him plenty of long walks which we appreciate. Will be utilizing Dion in the future when needed :)”
19. Briana V.
“Another visit with a Great sitter! I’m so impressed with how much love and patience Briana has with my little guy Max. She was nonstop with updates and pictures which really eased my nerves. I will definitely book with Briana again and again.”
20. David R.
“David and Jerrilyn took amazing care of my dog. They made sure to send updates and pictures daily, so that I knew what she was up to and how she was doing! They did a great job of keeping her busy with walks, visits to the dog park, and plenty of treats - but always made a point to ask if these things were okay first. Exactly the type of care that you wish for your pup when you’re gone. They were incredibly friendly and respectful as well & truly made this whole process easy! I would definitely trust them with Piper again :) Overall, they were mindful of her care instructions, communicative, and my dog returned home in great spirits.”
