“charlene was very helpful during our trip! We had to leave early because of the snow storm and she agreed to take Millie for longer right away. We had updates and pictures during the trip and when we got back our dog seemed very tired and very happy too!”
2. Zo H.
“Zo was so good to my two dogs. She sent updates and pics everyday. They were calm, clean and happy when I went to pick them up. Highly recommend her.”
3. Golda M.
“Golda and her husband were AMAZING! We will book again. They are located right across from a field-so our dog got the exercise she needed. They gave us so many pics/videos/updates on how she was doing and how much they enjoyed having Luna Sky stay with them. They were very thoughtful in offering to purchase more of her daily supplement and even bought her more of her treats to take home. They really made our dog part of their family while we were away and honestly were wonderful to work with. Nothing but 5 stars for us :) !”
4. Mari & Franccesco G.
“Mari and Franccesco were a huge lifesaver. I contacted them the night before requesting a boarding and omg, I can’t say how thankful I was they accepted. Appreciate how they wanted to know detailed bits of Bori and her lifestyle to best accommodate her stay. They took Bori out multiple times and I’m appreciative of how much they adored her. And what made the cherry on top was that Bori made a new friend! Easy to contact and super quick to reply. Definitely recommend!”
5. Rosa R.

7. Megan K.
“Megan was so great to work with! Super responsive and sent lots of updates! She did a great job taking care of our senior pomeranian! Thank you so much! Will definitely book again :)”
8. Chawntea P.
“Our Miss Lexie had a wonderful stay. Chawntea treated our baby girl like family. She made new furry friends, which helps her socialization skills. Chawntea was so flexible with our ever-changing travel plans. Shout out to Southwest. She sent updates and pics while we were away, which brought smiles to our faces. Without a doubt, we will be using her services in the future.”
9. Suzanne E.
“Our pup loves her pup-cations with Suzanne! So much safe fun and romping through green grass, hanging with buddies, she gets great care staying with Suzanne! Highly recommend!”
10. Alexandra E.
“Alexandra was amazing - so grateful to have found her and Pochi!! Communication was great and I loved the pics and updates. We already have a second stay booked!”
11. Tracy T.
“Tracy watches Oscar, my dog, almost on a monthly basis while me and my girlfriend are out on vacation. We trust her a lot because she checks in with us constantly and is always available when we text her. He's currently 13 years old and on 2 different medications. He's a hard feeder but Tracy always gets it done as she's super patient with him. I recommended her to all of my friends so you'll just have to see for yourself what a good dog sitter she is because once you do, you won't need to find anyone else!”
12. Teetouch P.
“I have so many good things to say about Tee and his family. They took amazing care of my boy and sent me several videos and photos everyday of him doing the things he loves. Playing ball. Hanging with the other dogs. I knew from the minute I met Tee That Ted would be in good hands. You can tell he really loves and enjoys hanging with the dogs! I am so happy and I would highly recommend him above anyone I’ve met on Rover!!!”
13. Sara B.
“Sara is the perfect sitter! She walks the dogs often, and puts effort into making sure the dogs are a good fit for her sitting style. She communicated throughout our trip, and sent plenty of pictures. 10/10! Thank you Sara!!”
14. Jeff & Beth K.
“Leaving our pup Koda with Jeff and Beth always feels good. It’s our second time boarding with them and Koda seems to get so loved up and cared for by them and their sweet kids. We LOVE all of their updates and photos, they’re the best! And we were super grateful they were flexible to extend Koda’s stay one extra night. All in all such a good experience and I’m sure Koda is looking forward to going back! Thanks Jeff and Beth!”
15. Kim T.
“We couldn't be happier with the care that Kim & Jeff gave Tinker Bell, treating her like one of their own. They provided numerous daily updates with pictures, which gave us a great feeling of confidence that our fur baby was doing fine & happy. We will definitely use them again!”
16. Kelly L.
“I boarded my dog with Kelly for 9 days while I was out of town and she did a great job. My dog came back to me happy with a wagging tail. She sent me picture/video updates every day to give me a peace of mind. Excellent communication and very professional. I highly recommend her if you’re in need of a dog sitter!”
17. Pablo S.
“Pablo and his wife Clare were so awesome and gentle with our anxious fella Gumbo. Pablo kept us informed of their activities and send pics and videos throughout the stay. We’re so grateful that Gumbo is being loved and cared for while we’re away!”
18. Sarah E.
“Sarah has petsat for me many times. On a few occasions when scheduling didn't allow for me to take on a pupper in my schedule, I have recommended her to a few of my regulars. She is responsive and always responsible. My regulars say she is great to work with and had no complaints. I'm so excited she has decided to use Rover to meet more families who are looking for a reliable, trustworthy, caring, and communicative sitter for their fur family.”
19. Robin & Daniel R.
“Robin and Dan were AMAZING with my senior tripod Peg. This was our first time apart since I began fostering her in January (followed by adopting her), she has severe separation anxiety and I knew it was going to be tough on her. I completely underestimated how tough though, sweet Peg went through some real mourning, however, she was in the most perfect hands ever. Robin was quick to text when there was an issue, quick to reply to any of my questions, gave me updates and photos, and was so unbelievably patient with Peg. And Dan very sweetly figured out she enjoys the tv! I am so thankful for Robin and Dan, and their patience and kindness, they are such wonderful people. Peg says “Thank you for my sleepover Aunt Robin and Uncle Dan””
20. Alexandra O.
“Alex took very great care of our dog while my partner and I have to both be away for a week. My dog has rarely been with sitters and is very nervous around new people. Alex has been great at accommodating all of my dog’s needs, and have a great environment to make my dog feels as comfortable as she can. Alex is very prompt with communication, and provided daily picture/video and detailed updates of my dog. Alex has a ton of experience with dogs so I would definitely leave my dog in her care again.”
