1. Brendan B.
“Brendan was absolutely amazing, Kito seemed to have enjoyed being there and spent a lot of time playing and walking. I've had consistent days of trying to find a good sitter and immediately felt right when I booked this stay. Kito came back very happy and that's the first time I've seen my pup so excited after being with a sitter. I recommend Brendan for anyone having trouble finding the right fit and for anyone looking for a first time sitter.”
2. Cassandra & Jason K.
“Cassandra & Jason jumped right in when I needed a last minute sitter for Piper and were so great. She’s typically pretty timid when she first meets someone new but I could tell as soon as I picked her up how comfortable she was with them. After greeting me she walked back into their house like “bye Mom, i live her now!”.”
3. Susan O.
“I was in town for a day and needed someone to look after my best friend at the last minute. Susan responded to my request immediately and gave Rosie the best day ever! I got lots of pictures of her having a blast with some other dog friends and of her going on a hiking adventure. She was happy and tired out when I picked her up. Susan is lovely to communicate with and I could not have asked for a better caretaker for my dog. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter, and I’ll be sure to book her again the next time I’m passing through.”
4. Alex K.
“Alex did an outstanding job caring for my easily stressed dog, Kona. He followed my specific instructions to help maintain Kona's routine and gave her medications as needed. His gentleness and patience helped Kona feel at ease, and I received regular updates that kept me reassured. By the time I got back, they were best friends. I highly recommend Alex for his reliable care and will be reaching out to him again in the future when I need someone to dog sit.”

“Erin is my dog Daisy's favorite sitter! She loves to play, snuggle, and take her on lots of walks. Erin always keeps me updated with photos and videos!”
6. Manuela Diaz H.
“5 ⭐️s! I’ve been using Rover since 2017, so I’m familiar with the variety of care takers that Rover attracts. If you want a loving, hands on, kind and attentive pet sitter, Manuela is your girl. She watched my pup Xena for the afternoon and Xena loved her so much she didn’t want to leave! Manuela’s pup is playful, kind, and well behaved. The perfect play mate! I highly recommend Manuela as a sitter and I can’t wait to return! Thank you so much 🙏🏾”
7. Kristen V.
“Jackson came back and slept for hours! Happy he got some play time in. We are in town to watch my son race at COTA and with the Austin temps so high couldn’t bring Jackson to the track with us. I didn’t want to leave him in the hotel room all day. Great communication.”

He was always so behaved and loved the experience♥️ Natalie is my sweet baby dog’s favorite human! I know you will feel at ease because she is caring for your loved one!”
