Nicollette did a wonderful job taking care of Rocket for a week. She was very patient and caring towards our puppy. Rocket has a lot of energy and she provided situations that helped with that behavior. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.

Kim is such an amazing dog lover and took great care of Alfie! She sent the right amount of updates/pictures and knew Alfie was having the best time with all their old town walks and exercises. Thank you so much Kim for caring for Alfie like your own pup and to Julia as well! Happy he got to spend time with you and cuddle

Fnu & Eric were fantastic. Their yard is perfectly accommodating for bigger dogs and they take the job seriously. We met at a local park for a meet and greet with her dogs and mine to make sure they were a fit behaviorally, and she asked great intro questions to make sure she meets your pets needs. Will likely book again soon!

Sue and Thomas took such great care of our dogs while we were visiting family for the weekend. They were extremely accommodating and based on all the pictures our pups have a wonderful time. This was our first experience with Rover and it worked out perfectly. Could not be happier!

I would absolutely recommend using Simon given the opportunity. He is a devoted spoiler and caregiver when looking for a lover and loyal keeper while you’re away! He is constantly in touch, with loving pictures, keeping us peace of mind. Superb with lots of gushes!!

Geoff was fantastic. He kept me updated with pictures and how Tess was doing. He was also able to flex and take Tess a few days early when I had a pop up work event. Tess seemed sad to leave Geoff and Lizzy which I always take as a good sign!

Lauren is a great sitter. She will love your dog as she loves her own pets and is welcoming to both you and your dog. She is attentive and will ease any concern you have about leaving your pet. My dog clearly felt at home with her.

Maggie took excellent care of our senior dog while we were away on the longest trip our family has taken in quite some time. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Maggie after our familiarization visit. We saw clearly that she has a heart for animals, and especially older dogs. She even bought a new toy just for our dog. Maggie welcomed our bringing a portable crate and our dog's bed for the duration of the stay, which we felt helped our dog feel at home. Drop off and pick up were very smooth and timely.

Journey was great with Mandu. She helped us out in a last minute bind and was great about getting our dogs used to each other and snuggling by the end of the day. She was very responsive and Mandy seemed very happy.

This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have chosen a better sitter. Jennifer was fantastic with Tuli and took very good care of her. She was also super responsive with any questions or concerns and provided plenty of update photos, which we appreciated very much. We will definitely choose her again.

My 15 month goldendoodle just completed his 6 day stay with Rafael and Rocky. My puppy looked great and was happy when I picked him up. Rafael kept me up to date with lots of photos and videos, as well as info on activities. Rafael took my high-energy dog on long walks, runs, and kept him stimulated at home. He also shared good guidance on training. I really appreciate Rafael’s honest and responsible attitude and plan to book him again for my next travel. Thanks Rafael, I am so glad I found you on Rover!

Eduardo and Suseth watched our dog for a whole 8 days while we were away on vacation and we are SO thankful to have found them! They took such great care of our pup, gave him love and attention, and kept us updated throughout the whole week. We seriously can’t thank them enough and recommend them to anyone in search of a kind and loving sitter!

Christine was wonderful. Teddy felt right at home as soon as we got there and quickly loved her which put me at ease. She sent me photos and gave me updates on how Teddy was doing. Her home has a fenced back yard and other pups for Teddy to play with. I could tell he had a great time and was exhausted when we got home. Sign of a good visit! Will definitely book again! Thanks so much, Christine!
