Rong was fantastic! She communicated regularly and Ralphie came home happy. I can’t ask for much more than that! Her dog, Lucky, is also a sweetheart and made a good companion for my dog.

Lina was a fantastic Rover who took great care of my dog Nola. She was attentive, gave Nola lots of play time, and was communicative throughout the entire process! I was very happy to leave Nola with her and will continue using her in the future whenever I need someone to watch Nola!

The BEST! I would leave my furbaby with Jayendri and her loving family, all over again. My dog stayed with Jayendri for 10 days and I received multiple pictures, videos and updates on a daily basis. I never felt that I left my dog with an unknown family. They treated my dog like their own family. I couldn’t have asked for a better home / stay for him. Thank you Jayendri and family for taking such amazing care of Whiskey. If anyone of you are looking for a loving, trustworthy, flexible and generous family for your dog, you have to go with Jayendri.

Kathy did an amazing job taking care of our 2 dogs, and they are a good bit of work! One dog is 14 months old, with never ending energy and curiosity. We adopted her 6 months ago, and she is working through anxiety. She was not anxious at all with Kathy! Kathy's granddaughter was with them for part of the week and we heard the two of them became fast friends and were inseparable. Our second dog is 13years old, much lower energy, a picky eater, has medicine that is a game to get her to take. Kathy was great with our old pup as well! She ate most meals, took all her medicine, and looked very content. Kathy sent pictures, videos and updates twice a day, so we knew how they were doing everyday. I highly recommend Kathy to take care of your pups and will ask Kathy to take care of our dogs if available the next time we are out of town.

Sean and Eve were fantastic sitters. They continually sent me pictures of Rocky and kept me up to date. They even went above and beyond and gave Rocky a bath when he got into something smelly. I appreciate the care and love they showed my dog, and would recommend them in a heartbeat.

My two French bulldogs made themselves right at home with Piero and his family. They treated my doggos with great care and attention. It was also a huge plus that someone was always home with my girls. Piero was great with sending pictures and keeping me updated. It was super easy and I will be using him again to watch my dogs. 100 percent recommend - a wonderful sitter!

Nithya took care of my Cinnamon for a few days, looks like she had a great time. There were a few other dogs staying with her so there were plenty of friends around to play with. She came home pretty tired from all the excitement, as she's used to being an only dog at home on the couch all day.

It was our first time with Marylee and I loved the fact that she took the time to get to know us and Cosmo. I felt confident leaving him for three days with her. Marylee was super communicative while we were gone and sent us photos twice a day which I loved receiving. He had such a great time and was taken such good care that I wasn’t sure he would want to come back (lol!). Marylee was also very accommodating and flexible as there was an unexpected schedule change we needed to make right before our date. She was very quick to respond which also made me feel confident. Cosmo is our third baby (after two human babies) and we felt so good leaving him in her care. Looking forward to him having more future stays with Marylee. Cosmo had an absolute ball. He was exhausted when he came back and slept for a whole day when he came back (lol!)

Jill and her family made sure to keep our dog on his medication schedule and monitor his healing knee injury. It wasn’t an ideal time to go on vacation but Jill reassured me and explained to me that she had experience giving medication and that her home would be a safe environment. I came back to a happy dog that was moving better than when I had dropped him off.

Christopher sent us plenty of photos and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel really comfortable and reassured. He took really good care of our dog, and our dog was super happy when we got back. This was our first time using Rover, and it turned out to be a great experience. We’d definitely recommend Christopher!

Sabina and her family have been great to Apollo! She took him on the adventures and made him happy. That definitely put a huge cheese on my face. I mean, he had so much fun with her family! She kept me updated with those photos while I was away. That’s wonderful because I wasn’t even worried too much about him with Sabina and her family. She took care of him well. He loved them since day one! Will definitely ask Sabina again in the future! She rocks!

I was a little nervous with leaving Miss Millie with a new sitter. However once meeting Dawn, all my fears vanished. Dawn is very personable and exudes professionalism, confidence, and a great understanding of dogs. Miss Millie took to her and her little yorkie Rascal immediately and had a blast in the large yard. Pictures and updates were sent regularly which was much appreciated. I highly recommend Dawn and Rascal as the perfect hosts.
