“Whitney and her family were absolutely brilliant in caring for my 15 year old rat terrier. In fact, Newby was quite spoiled by all their attention.”
2. Nontombe B.
“Nontombe was excellent! I felt totally comfortable leaving my fur baby Rocco! She was in consistent contact, kept me updated and asked questions to help my fur baby adjust to being without his Mommy. I truly appreciate her professionalism, care and concern!”
3. Chad A.
“Our dog had so much fun with Chad and family. We were given regular updates on all the action. He is completely worn out and missing his new friend, Sandy. Thanks Chad!!”
4. Halley A.
“Halley clearly loves dogs and showed my pup a lot of attention. The only problem was Halley said she made accommodations for her dogs when she dogsits. But she just had them in a back room and they were barking a lot She let the dogs meet through the gate, which was stressful for my dog who isn't good with dogs. Halley would be a great sitter except if you have a dog aggressive dog. Then better to book someone else”

7. Jessica P.
“Jessica was just amazing! My dog loved her and her fur babies!! She was exactly the perfect fit for my older sometimes grumpy girl. Jessica was easy to communicate with in the app. and very responsive. Overall, the best experience and I felt she far exceeded my expectations as this was my first Rover pet experience. Highly recommend her!!”

10. Erika T.
“Erika was great with handling and interacting with our dog even when she was skittish. She was kind but stern when doing so. Her dog Brandy also gave my dog Max a companion while we were away, and Erika treated Max as one of her own. She was loved on and treated with great care. We got daily updates on our dog and pictures along the way for when we missing her. Definitely would recommend her for someone to board your dog with.”
11. Debbie J.
“I can't say enough good things about Debbie and how much she cares about my dogs. It's so touching that it brings tears to my eyes. I have a senior dog who was on medication and his appetite was off as a result. She did not give up and kept enticing him with various options until we ate! We both rejoiced. I know my dogs love her back just as much as she loves them :)”
12. Caroline S.
“If you’re concerned about the care that your pup will receive when you leave them with a Rover sitter, I’m confident those concerns will disappear once you leave your pup with Caroline S! My pup, Chowder, has been in the care of several other Rover sitters over the past few years and they’ve all been pretty good. However, this is the first time that I’ve felt that he was being cared for by a true professional! Caroline was extremely thorough! She meticulously asked all the right questions about Chowder’s preferences to make sure that she would be prepared and his stay would be as seamless and comfortable as possible. She also kept me updated constantly throughout his 4-day stay with welcomed messages, pictures, and videos! Unexpectedly, I had to add an additional day to Chowder’s stay and Caroline happily updated the reservation and assured me that it wasn’t a problem. That truly alleviated me of the stress of the unexpected situation! The thing that impressed my wife and I the most was setup of the area where Chowder slept. She had an entire room dedicated to the pups with four separate suites. Each dog would have their own individual spacious area where they would sleep and eat. Because their meals are kept separate, I didn’t have to worry about Chowder eating anything other than his prescription food. There’s also a television in the room to provide background noise to keep the pups company when they were in their suites. I was happy to see that because we do the same for Chowder when we’re at work. She also uses a white noise machine at night to help reduce the dog’s stress to help them sleep better at night. There’s also a general area where the pups can play together if there are other dogs there. The room was also very neat and clean. Bottom line is, if you’re nervous about leaving your pup with someone you’re unfamiliar with or, you’ve never used Rover before, do yourself a favor and give Caroline S. a try. I promise you will not regret it. I could immediately tell that she truly loves dogs by all of the effort she and her husband put in to create a safe, comfortable space for pups under her care! If Caroline had been the first person I chose when I began using Rover, the ONLY reason I would ever use a different sitter would have be if Caroline wasn’t available! She’s that good! She will absolutely by my Rover go-to moving forward!”
13. Wendy G.
“Wendy was great with my dog! She took her on plenty of walks and to a coffee shop! She also sent me plenty of pictures while I was away. Definitely would book with her again!”
14. Megan L.
“Megan was so good with my sweet boy! She gave him lots of snuggles and went the extra mile to ensure his unique needs were met. I would definitely book her again.”
15. Maggie H.
“Maggie is great. She is so sweet and she made me feel so comfortable leaving my pup with her. She was very accommodating and you can tell that he genuinely cares for dogs. Thank you so much, Maggie. 100% recommend!”
16. Jud & Nicole B.
“Such a great experience for both my dog and I! I couldn’t recommend Nicole and Jud enough. Lots of photos and updates - a very easy stress free experience.”
17. Veronica L.
“Veronica is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! My dog was so comfortable with her and I could enjoy my time away knowing she was well taken care of. I received regular updates and pictures and Veronica immediately let me know when she suspected my dog had a UTI. She even made little treats for the dogs for Thanksgiving (she did ask permission to give them first). ❤️ Will absolutely be booking with her again.”
18. Michael P.
“Michael was the best sitter ever for my fur baby! He came to us for a meet and greet, he also agreed to pick/ drop off which was a huge plus for our situation. Mike was very nice, friendly and understanding. I really hope we can keep Michael as our sitter for Winter, thank you so much again!!”
19. Sally F.
“Winston always has the best time at Miss Sally’s! I can always trust my little guy is doted on and given all the love and attention. Thank you so much for being so amazing to my little man and for being so caring, understanding, communicative, and flexible!”
20. Danielle M.
“Danielle took excellent care of my spoiled pup. I was able to enjoy my vacation because I knew he was well cared for and well loved. She even sent him home with a treat bag which he really enjoyed!”
