“Jessica and Carol were wonderful hosts for Sandy’s overnight visit! They were very patient and loving with her, and made sure she took all the time she needed to feel safe and comfortable. Carol updated us frequently with photos and messages. Sandy is looking forward to her next stay in a few weeks!”
“Rebecca, Ethan, and their lovely family were amazing with our older dog! We are so grateful for their kindness and the care they took to let us know how well our pup was doing with them.”
“Pietro was absolutely amazing!! Maple is nervous around men but she was so comfortable with him. He sent plenty of pictures and videos and even kept her a few hours longer to help me out since I broke my leg. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Kyri has been great each time 😊 She is always so nice and patient. Emir loves her and enjoys his time at her house. I appreciate the fact that she communicates daily and sends pics and videos to update me on how he's doing. Also, Emir gets to socialize with other dogs in a safe environment.”
“Hatsuki is a wonderful mommy for my kitty, Vivi. She is genuinely compassionate and a caring person for the animals who cannot talk. She gave a very comfortable home for Vivi during her stay. Thank you, Hatsuki, for all you have done to me and my kitty. Vivi said she was happy to have met you, and looking forward to meeting with you again. Many thanks for your kindness. Makiko”
“Gregory always takes great care of our pets. I never have to worry when they are there, he gets them all settled in like they are part of the family!”
“Jaqueline was an absolute delight! She was so friendly, communicative, and sent plenty of pictures while my dog was with her. It was clear she took good care of him and I highly recommend her!”
“Ashlee was wonderful with my dogs. She loved on them like they were her own. One was a 5-month old puppy full of energy which required extra attention. She spoiled him and bought him to baby pool as she noticed that he loved water! She also bathe and washed bedding for both dogs before I picked them up. It was so nice not having to clean them when we got home. I highly recommend her if you want a worry free vacation.”
“First time using rover and I couldn’t imagine picking another dog sitter for my dog Spike who absolutely had a great week stay with Karen. I needed a extra day for him to stay on short notice and it was no problem for her to make the adjustments. She really is good at this and makes your pet feel at home and as pet owner made me feel very comfortable on how she handles her service. Karen has lots of space for pets and also lots of love for them as well. I know my dog can’t wait to go back, I would recommend her to anyone GREAT SERVICE!!!”
“I really like how well Britany took care of Jasmine! She was able to watch her at the last minute so that I could take a trip to Rio and spend quality time with my daughter. She took pictures of her every day and sent them to me. She even gave her a bath when she got too muddy on one of her walks. I hope to be able to work with her again soon and I would definitely recommend her to everyone!”
“Was a last minute weekend stay for my dog and quickly felt comfortable with him staying there. She shared photos of dogs playing together and was quite responsive if ever messaged.”
“Casey was such a great sitter! I felt comfortable the whole weekend because she sent pictures and videos the entire time I was gone. She was professional and communicated well.”
“Katherine is fabulous. Not only did she take the time to meet prior to the day of drop off, but sent pictures of our fur baby and treated our pup like she was her own. I highly recommend and will be reconnecting with Katherine for future stays.”
“Nate and Whitney did an amazing job watching Mac! They sent many updates and pictures of how Mac was doing while he stayed with them. When I picked him up the next day he was exhausted so it is safe to say he had a blast staying with them. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
“Ryan is great! He has watched Niko, our GS mix a few times now. This last time we were gone for over a week, when we picked up Niko he was freshly bathed and tuckered out from his 3mile walk. We hope to use Ryan again!!!”

Mariah was great and extremely flexible! I was in the process of PCSing and she watched my two dogs within a days notice and was quick to respond and meet up when I needed to pick my girls up early upon notification that I had to leave earlier than expected. 10/10 recommend!!
