“Senne was so sweet and accommodating. I was new to this app & a bit nervous about leaving my pup pup for a few days but she took great care of my Brody. She sent photos & updates often. & was so accommodating when my flight got delayed and I had to change the pick up time twice 🫣 I Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs💙”


“Jessica was courteous, friendly and thoughtful. We liked how Jessica sent daily pictures of Dallas while giving us updates of how he was doing. Jessica has dogs of her own, which reassured us that Dallas wasn’t going to be alone. This also gave him a chance to play with other dogs, as he does not have others to play with at home. Her family was also nice and respectful. Her assurance, in turn, gave us confidence and trust in her. We would definitely ask her again to care for Dallas and I would highly recommend her. Thank you to Jessica and your family!”

“Kenn and Lyn and their family were amazing taking care of my two fur babies while we were out of state. This was my first time boarding my pets so I was admittedly anxious at first, but the nerves went away when meeting Kenn and Lyn prior to our stay. Their energy is very relaxed, their house was clean and they had a big back yard for my dog to run around and get the exercise she needs! Kenn was great with communication and sending daily pics and updates on how my pets were doing. I would recommend their services to friends and would be happy have my pets in their care again in the future! Thank you, Kenn and Lyn!”

Leo and I are grateful and look forward to future stays.”


“My wife and I are so glad to have found Mayra. This was our first time using Rover, so we did have get used to the idea of a stranger taking care of our fur baby. But, she provided exceptional service like providing photo updates twice a day and responding to messages promptly. Although I don’t have access to base, it was easy to meet up with Mayra. And the real evidence was when I went to pick up Chloe: she wanted to give a final nuzzle before we left. That showed me how comfortable Chloe was with Mayra and her family. I will definitely use her services again!”


“Kalea took excellent care of our dog Oreo. Oreo has special needs, and Kalea quickly adapted to meet them. She took Oreo on regular walks which she loved, and she sent us pics and videos which showed us how much Oreo was enjoying her own vacation. We would definitely use Kalea again. Thank you Kalea!”

“Diana was great with our pups during our vacation. She sent daily updates with pictures. Treated our pups like they were her own while we were away. Could not have asked for a better sitter. Thank you!”


“We left our dog with Chelsea for 1.5 weeks. We received regular updates from her and she sent pics, which helped us know he was relaxed and comfortable. Our dog loves people, but doesn’t like other dogs. Chelsea’s updates addressed that and made us even more comfortable. Drop off and pickup was very easy for where she lives. This was our first experience using her and Rover. Chelsea made the overall process pretty easy too. We do recommend Chelsea for other dogs and we will definitely try to use her in the future too.”
