“First time using Rover and happy with how everything turned out. Was in town with the fam and planned on visiting the aquarium. Reached out to Jesse 2 days prior to our visit and he responded right away. He walked and fed Audie and sent pictures and texted updates. We were running late for pickup and Jesse was kind enough to give us extra time so we didn’t have to rush back. Thanks Jesse!”
“Kelly and her boys took great care of our little girl while we were in town for a ballgame. They have a lovely neighborhood for walks and she sent lots of updates and pictures. I can’t recommend her more highly!”
“Dilan was very kind and attentive to our blind rescue poodle Sugar and Melody was a perfect canine host. In turn Sugar was extremely happy and calm even though she always had severe separation anxiety due to her condition. Dilan is very communicative and understanding so you can trust your pet will be well taken care of.”
“Kalikonani is a lovely young lady who kindly cares for her dog and another small, older dog. She asked several questions before accepting the booking to be sure it would be a comfortable and safe environment for those (charming) dogs and mine. She gave me a detailed account of the entire time my dog was there with several photos. I would definitely book her again if I lived in the area or if I visit again.”
“Nina is wonderful - the peace of mind we have leaving Cosmo with her is priceless. Cosmo is comfortable in her home, Nina is very attentive, and her yard is terrific. Highly recommended!”
“Kristin is amazing! We did a meet and greet the day before and she is kind, caring, and understands that some dogs are just weird. She sent me photos throughout the day and my pup was sad to leave her house! Would definitely recommend and use her again.”
“Denise is a loving caring pet sitter. She watched my dog for a while day while we visited the Aquarium. Very easy to reach, sent great pupdates. My sweet boy was ready to snuggle in for the evening after his visit with her. Would definitely recommend!”
“MacKenzie was GREAT with our GREAT Dane! She was professional, warm, capable and easy to coordinate with. We picked our pup upmat the end of the day and he was happy, exercised, adored a and well fed - all a Dane could ask for! We highly recommend MacKenzie and will hire her again!”
“While visiting Carmel, we needed someone to care for our miniature Australian Shepherd for a day. With no experience leaving Blu with anyone locally, we chose David through Rover. We met David for an introductory visit and he gave us a tour of his excellent facilities, introduced Blu to his own dog and cat, and immediately put us all at ease. When our plans changed at the last minute, he was flexible and accommodating. At drop-off, Blu quickly settled into his surroundings, and the photos David shared showed he was comfortable and had made himself right at home. When we picked him up, he was happy—and pleasantly tired. We highly recommend David.”
“Johemy was great! My little Brigid was so well cared for. I love leaving her with someone who is loving and caring. I appreciate how nurturing she was to her. I would definitely recommend!”

“Jill was awesome and Jack really enjoyed his day with her. He came back cleaner than when we left him and a happy pup. Would definitely use Jill again when we are in the Monterey area!”
“Outstanding service. Highly recommend Robert. He was great with Rebel and his communication is top tier - quick and responsive. Definitely will reach out to Robert again when in Monterey.”
“Best possible sitter I could have ever dreamed of! I was in town for a concert and Jayla took the absolute best care of my dog. Absolutely recommend having her watch your pet. They'll be cared for and happy. ☺️”
“Yessica was absolutely amazing, Theo was literally wagging his tail going back the next day. She gave me consistent updates and clearly loved having him there, he was so tired coming home because he was being played with so much! Thank you for the time and care you dedicated to my baby, definitely will be rebooking the next time I need dog daycare. ♥️”

Ala was delightful to work with! This was our second time booking & I cannot recommend her enough. She took excellent care of Kai & Koda, they left her home feeling relaxed and happy after a fun time. I appreciated Ala’s communication and attentiveness- she also sent the best pictures! 😊🐾 Thank you again.
Ruth was great! Flexible with our plans, sent photos of Willow at the beach, relayed great stories of her days. This was my first Rover booking & I had anxiety; Ruth allayed those concerns and Willow was so excited to see her the next day! This made it so nice for my mom & I to enjoy the Aquarium and other sites without worrying about how Willow was doing all the time. She came home tired and happy. Best that a dog mom could ask for!
