*Highly recommend* ~ Nikki has been *amazing*! I’m a first-time user of Rover, and she was *super* flex with all of my crazy travel delays, and adapted to the evolving logistics in real time, including adding another pet to care for and time changes! *Thank you* Nikki!

Isabelle was very responsive during my older yorkie’s weekend stay and sweet to my shy pup. Her flexibility made coordinating pick up and drop off quick and convenient. I’ll definitely use Isabelle any time our girl needs taking care of when we’re out of town!

Kim is simply the very best, loving, knowledgeable, and attentive. She gave Kazu a loving home and so much love. We adore all the photos and videos she sent, as well as daily updates. Kim knows how to take care of big dogs, and is a true dog lover. As a plus, she works from home! There are parks near her house, and she takes Kazu on daily long walks. Thank you, dear Kim, for everything!

Kerry took such great care of Junie while we were away for the holidays- even getting her a stocking for christmas! She was very communicative and flexible, taking Junie a night earlier than planned to accommodate our schedule. Kerry sent daily updates and photos and gave Junie lots of love. You should feel confident Kerry will take the best care of your pet. Thanks Kerry!

Our pup had a great time with Sue and Thomas. They sent pictures every day and reassured us he was doing great. We'd without a doubt use them again in the future.

Fnu was extremely accommodating and made leaving my girl with her very comforting. I had never used rover before and I was very nervous to leave my dog with someone I didn’t know, so Fnu sending me daily pictures and updates quickly eased my worries.

My Boston Terrier stayed with Peter and Stephany for a last minute weekend trip and it was nothing short of perfect. It was the first time I'd left her with someone who wasn't a family member or close friend and I was a little nervous, but Peter welcomed her into the home and slowly introduced to each dog who was staying. I received daily pictures and updates and felt totally at ease on my entire trip, knowing she was in such good care. Thank you Peter and Stephany! I will definitely be in touch for future doggy sleepovers :)

Billy loved his stay at Brian's. He got to play with tons of toys and received a lot of attention. Brian also sent me daily updates with photos of Billy, and was also very conscientious about Billy's special food and medication needs. I will definitely be bringing Billy back to Brian's next time I go out of town.

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!

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.

Yue and her husband took great care of Taro. They were very easy to communicate and flexible with pick-up when my flight was delayed. Will for sure come back the next time I'm out of town.
