Sarah and family (humans and dogs) made my pup feel like family! He got to play and cuddle all day long and we got cute pictures throughout the weekend. They were patient with his puppy behavior and their love for dogs is so special! We will happily leave our pup in their care again!

Jodi was great with Champ! She made him feel right at home and treated him like part of the family. Champ had dog friends to play with, went on walks, and got plenty of attention. It was clear he was happy and comfortable the entire time. Champ usually has a hard time staying with others, but Jodi made the experience easy and stress-free for him. I really appreciated the care and patience she showed. I will definitely be using Jodi again for my future travel plans. Highly recommend!

I was a bit nervous, as I had never boarded my pup overnight in an unfamiliar place before. Kayla alleviated every ounce of stress I could have had! She was absolutely great and very professional. She and her two adorable pups welcomes my boy Brody into her home and took such good care of him while I was away, sending updates and pictures regularly. Brody usually gets separation anxiety but became comfortable with Kayla surprisingly quickly, had so much fun playing with her pup Bandit, and came home plum tuckered out! I’m so happy and relieved to have found Kayla and will certainly be returning to her next time I need a sitter!

Great sitter, had my dog for 8 days and he was well taken care of and because of her work he got to hang out with lots of other dogs all day! He had a blast! 10/10 would recommend.

Dana and Nia took great care of our puppy. He came back exhausted from all of the playing he had done over the weekend! They were very communicative, sending updates at least once a day, and even let us change our pickup time to be more convenient for us. This was our first time using Rover and it was such a relief to not have to worry about our pup while we were away.

Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.

Benji is like my child, so leaving him with someone is never an easy decision. I work from home and he is always with me, so what he needs most is someone’s presence and attention rather than constant activity. When I saw Mr. Su’s profile, I immediately felt he would be a great match for Benji’s nature, and I was right. He had occurred as a very trustworthy person to me immediately. I appreciated his communication from the start and the thoughtful questions about Benji’s routine. I also loved the photo updates and seeing that Benji was getting out and about. Mr. Su even added a bit more structure to Benji’s meals, which I really appreciated. He also accepted the booking on short notice when my other plans fell through, which meant a lot. Benji looked like himself in every update- relaxed and happy and it was clear he was in excellent hands. I’m extremely grateful to have found Mr. Su, and Benji will definitely be staying with him again. It’s a perfect setup for a dog who is used to having a work-from-home parent and thrives on attention, consistency, and a good routine.

I can’t say enough good things about Julie! She took care of my two dogs for a week while I was away for work, and she was absolutely wonderful. She sent me photos and videos every day, keeping me updated on how my pups were doing, which really put my mind at ease. It was clear they were happy, relaxed, and getting lots of love and attention. My dogs are like my children, and I felt completely confident leaving them in her care. I came home to two very content pups and a clean, well-cared-for home. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring person to take care of their pups! Thank you Julie!

Julie was fantastic. After my family met with her we knew instantly she was the one for us. We used her overnight for our son’s wedding and could not have been happier. We had never had our Molly stay with anyone other than a family member so this was a big deal for us, plus the first time we used Rover. Julie put me at ease and shared pictures of her and Molly. Cannot go wrong with Julie. Highly recommended!!

We missed her terribly and it was so sweet to see that Jasmine had a good time on vaca too! I’d do it again. It was a great stay. Jasmine’s head tilts when we mention Joanna is all the proof. This is good. Many thanks.
