Catherine was excellent with our dog Misiu! She was incredibly attentive, and sent lots of photos and videos throughout our vacation. She allowed him to snuggle with her in bed, which he’s used to. That was very much appreciated. We will definitely rebook with Catherine. Misiu was a happy boy the entire time, we weren’t missed 😆

Sally was great with our senior dog, who we needed to find a sitter for last-minute. She is a great communicator and made everything stress-free.

Good communication and friendly. Our dog was happy and well-cared for. He also spent time with two kids in the house, and they were very respectful of him; playing and loving on him.

Robert was the BEST Rover we have ever had!!! I cannot recommend him enough 😃 Our dog, Archie, had a great time staying with him and got lots of love, attention, and walkies 🐾 Robert sent such fun updates, pictures, and videos that we loved getting and made us smile so much while away from our little guy 🤍 We will definitely be booking with him anytime we need to board Archie again in the future. I would give him 10 stars if I could ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our pug LOVED his 4-day stay with Brenda and her family! Our little guy got along great with her two pit bulls and really bonded with their little boy. The dogs played and ran together in the fenced in yard. Our pug came home happy and ready to nap. Each day, I received a couple of photos with a brief update which I appreciated. This was a short-notice booking, and I am so grateful that Brenda was available. We will definitely arrange dog-sitting with Brenda in the future.

Alyssa was wonderful to work with and an excellent host for Arya! She was always prompt in her communication, responding almost immediately. She kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout Arya's stay. Arya can be selective about who she bonds with, but she and Reese became fast friends. I highly recommend Alyssa and look forward to having Arya stay with her again in the future!

can't say enough about the care that my dog Moose got from KiirstenC while I traveled over the holiday. ! It was our first experience with Rover. Moose was well fed, played with, snuggled, and truly loved by Kiirstenn and her family. She sent me texts and pictures while I was gone updating me on his activities. Moose is a Shih Tzu, Kiirsten's dog is also a Shih Tzu. She gets us! I can honestly say that I did not worry about Moose all the while I was gone. I would call upon Kiirsten to leave Moose with whenever I need to travel again, knowing he is loved and well taken care of when I cant be with him.

Howie and his wife took wonderful care of our 9-month-old puppy, Dexter. This was our first time boarding Dexter, so we were, admittedly, a little nervous about leaving him anywhere. Howie took the role of watching Dexter seriously, and we felt good about leaving Dexter with him. His professionalism and thorough communication eased our nerves. We know Dexter had a wonderful time because he came home a happy and tired pup! We will certainly use Howie again in the future and know Dexter will be excited about it, too. :)

Allison was extremely amazing! She was very communicative, send pictures of my baby Xian at least twice a day, she took amazing ones at that which also gave me so much peace of mind. I saw how happy he was, being cuddled, playing , sleeping, you name it. She captured the perfect moments. She was so kind and was willing to work with me even having a flight delay due to bad weather. Would definitely have her take care of Xian again.

Cait watched our young dog for 12 days, and we could not have asked for a better sitter for him! Excellent communication and updates throughout our trip helped us to relax, knowing he was being well taken care of. He got walks, enrichment toys, playtime with her other Rover dogs and lots of attention. When he had a couple of unexpected moments of destructive chewing, Cait implemented appropriate changes to his care. I would wholeheartedly recommend Cait to anyone looking for a dog sitter!

Ryan was great from the first day I reached out. He took great care of Pops during an extended trip. Tons of communication and multiple daily pictures. It's always hard to leave our pets and he made it as easy and comfortable as possible. Pops came back just as happy and healthy after 2.5 weeks. I will definitely reach out to Ryan again.
