“We were so happy that Maggie enjoyed her stay with Andrea. Loved receiving a picture of her and hearing about her time with Andrea when we picked her up. Thanks for the wonderful care you gave her !!!”
“Daisy and her family looked after our little rascal Toby and he had a wonderful time. He is still wandering around looking for Nina and Sonia! A lovely family home very amenable to dogs - Toby had lots of good walks, play time and cuddles. Perfect in every way 🐶”
“We went to New Zealand for 6 weeks. Alisa looked after Lucy and sent us photos. Alisa communicated often and sent us photo’s of Lucy relaxing in the house, playing with Haiko and going on walks. If I asked any questions, Alisa responded quickly. I knew that Lucy was well looked after, and because of Alisa’s care we were never worried and could enjoy our time away. I will only use Alisa and family in future to look after Lucy. I recommend Alisa highly.”
“Thank you Vicki for taking care of Maple. You were very much a home away from home. We believe Maple quickly adapted to the new environment and had lots of love and attention for the 13 days he stayed with you and your pups. Thank you.”
“Shravistha was incredibly responsive, kind, and flexible during a stressful moment in our trip to Victoria. As travelers with a dog, we suddenly found ourselves in a difficult situation late at night, and her quick communication and willingness to help gave us real peace of mind. Even though our plans changed afterward, we truly appreciated her understanding and support. Highly recommend!”
“I wasn't there for the stay, but my dog gave Bianca 5/5 stars. Really felt confident and at ease leaving my pup with her. She was very flexible, and communication was on point. Her daily updates were awesome. I will be thinking about her whenever I need a sitter again!”
“My first Rover experience and a very positive one! Anqian and Alexandre sent sweet updates of my cat Ham and really gave me peace of mind that he was in good hands! Thank you!”
“Our dog had a wonderful time with Iris! She sent us plenty of pictures of their adventures together and Juno always had a smile on her face. We will definitely be booking Iris again!”

She was super responsive and sent lots of photos and videos while we were gone. Super grateful for her care and will absolutely use her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Katy and Rachelle are warm, welcoming, and professional dog-sitters. Our Daisy stayed with them and their dog Tater for a week over Christmas and she had the best time.

We were very pleased to have Terry look after our dog .She was a great communicator and provided us with photos every day. It was very apparent that she makes a great connection with the dogs she looks after. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others who are looking for a lovely place to board your dog.
Iris is caring and capable, and has a large fenced yard and a friendly golden retriever that my dog got along very well with (apparently they played a lot!). She is home with them most of the time and takes them out for 2 walks a day. It was reassuring to know Ellie was well taken care of.
Stacey took care of my two elderly dogs and did such a wonderful job She gave me pictures throughout and you could tell they enjoyed their time with her. One needed medication and she kept her in the best shape. Will definitely ask her to take take care of my girls again!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Laila for our dog Filson! She sent great photo updates, communicated and provided a safe, comfortable home environment. Laila is just a genuinely kind/cool person. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for attentive, top-tier pet care!
Anqian and Alexandre were absolutely amazing. They watched our dog Bailey for about 12 hours while we were touring. We got many updates and even a few pictures of Bailey which was so comforting. They were very friendly and I would recommend them to anyone staying in the area.
Maddison is always so wonderful - we’ve had her watch our dog several times now and have had such a great experience every time! She has great communication, such positive energy, and is incredibly kind. Being able to go on vacation and genuinely not worry about whether our dog is happy and well cared for is such a blessing. We always know he’s in great hands with her. Thanks so much, Maddison :)
This was the first time we used Rover and Kathy and my wife and I couldn’t be more thrilled. Kathy was so easy to communicate with and sent regular updates. One of my chihuahuas can be a bit feisty and when I went to pick him up, Kathy and him seemed like best friends. Can’t wait to use Kathy again soon.
My 2 babies spent 4 days with Christina and they had a blast! She is communicative, thoughtful, and took them on so many adventures! Every photo I could tell how happy they were, and they came back to me fully themselves, not out of sorts at all. We HIGHLY recommend and will absolutely book again if we are in the area. Thank you, Christina!
