7. Samantha B.

“This was our first time using Rover for our 9 month old puppy Bo. Samantha is amazing!!! She took such great care of Bo! He arrived to her with a fear of stairs from slipping on a couple of steps recently. Samantha worked on his fear while he was with her. He is a little timid still, but since getting home yesterday from Samantha’s, he went up and down with no problem. She even gave us tips and tricks to use if he was reluctant. He enjoyed walks with Samantha and has a new friend, her dog Mac and got to enjoy playing with him. We were updated daily and I had no worries @ all while we were away. We will definitely use her again!”


8. Amanda L.
“Our dog and cat were well loved and cared for while we were away! We loved that Amanda stayed in touch and send us daily pictures of both of our girls. We will be reaching out when we plan our next vacation!”


9. Maryjane T.
“Maryjane was wonderful and cared well for Darby. Darby can be difficult if not in a consistent environment, but Marjane listened to all of my instructions and the visit was a success. Thank you Maryjane, you've given tremendous peace of mind!”


10. Kristin S.


“I am so grateful we found Kristin :) Second visit for our golden, Sunny. While we were away Kristin sent pictures so we could see Sunny was so happy -- hiking, playing, and just snuggling...that just put us so much at ease. Sunny also comes home cleaner than when we left her which is no easy task! :) I think we have to leave Sunny with Kristin and Kaia more often because she clearly misses them when she comes home! Thank you for everything, Kristin (and Kaia!)”


11. Francis E.

“I cannot say enough good things about Francis and her family! From the very beginning to end she went above and beyond to make sure Brady (and I) were comfortable! She updated me regularly and was communicative during the entire booking. You can tell her & her family love on the animals as if they were their own. I look forward to using her again in the future! Thanks so much, Francis!!! 😊”


12. Erica V.

“Erica was so easy to communicate with! She wasn't fazed by our two large dogs. The pups came home happy and worn out from play with her dogs. :-) She sent pictures every day. They even gave our dog a bath after he got himself all muddy outside!!”


13. Eleanor C.

“Eleanor has been an excellent care taker. Rocky had a blast ?, enjoyed his time. She shared lots of photos and videos of rocky. We are sure to ask her again for her excellent service when needed.”


14. James & Mallory N.

“This was our first time using Mallory and James and we will definitely use them again. Our dog didn’t do well at a big facility and he did great being in their home. They gave him a lot of special attention and love and exercise. We received videos and pictures every day. Highly recommend and will go back!”


15. Patrick & Susan D.

“Patrick and Susan took very good care of my two rambunctious dogs! They took the pups on very long walks every day, I was so impressed with how tired they were when we got home! Having the daily status updates and pictures really helped my piece of mind while we were out of town. I’ll definitely book with Patrick and Susan again!”


16. April L.

“Dodger had a blast with April! A big yard with a high fence, perfect for him to get plenty of exercise :) He came home, ate dinner, and then went down for the count 😂”


17. Sabrina W.

“Sunny had a wonderful week with Sabrina and her family in their beautiful home. She loved the large fenced in backyard and playing with Luna. It’s always hard to leave our fur baby behind when we travel, but Sabrina put us at ease. We are so grateful for the wonderful care she gave Sunny!”


18. Albert L.


“Headed to Vermont from Tennessee and stopped in Connecticut to attend a wedding. Got a Rover dog sitter for two days so I could attend all the festivities and my dog would be safe and happy. Lee Ann had a wonderful time. Used her own food and bed. They gave her the daily vitamins. Plus she got to socialize with dogs while I was worry free at the wedding. Very pleasant couple. I highly recommend.”


19. Holly S.
“Holly is THE BEST!!! She’s taught beginner lessons for us and sat for us many times over the past 3 years, and she’s always gone above in beyond with her communication, cleanliness, and genuine love and care for our animals. We have a 6 horse farm with 2 dogs and a few rabbits. She is knowledgeable and the first person to notice if there’s an issue with any of them. She checks in with us frequently and responds quickly to messages. She’s always reliable and we never have to worry about our animals or home while away. We recommend her so much!”
