1. Diego P.
“Diego was incredibly patient and understanding of our fairly anxious dog and is was helpful with multiple suggestions to help our dog become comfortable with him. Thanks Diego!”
2. Stephanie H.
“Stephanie went above and beyond! She stopped by the night before our appt. for a meet and greet and to get my keys. She was so sweet and really cool to talk with. The next day she showed right up on time and took my pupper for a better walk than I even give him. She sent lots of pics and communication and she even stayed way longer than she had to. Overall it was a great experience and I will definitely book again soon. I wish there was some sort of tipping option on the app because she seriously deserves it. Thanks again, mama!”

“Julia was great with our dog Gene this week when she needed a few walks. She took extra time to walk her and play with her outside and even gave some attention to our cats!

8. Isaac A.
“Isaac was prompt and extremely accommodating. He is responsive on the app around timing, willingness to do a meet and greet, and is very comfortable walking my puppy Archie who has trouble not barking at other dogs whether it is triggered by fear or overexcitement. I highly recommend him - he is a dog lover and great walker.”
9. Elyse S.
“Very communicative and responsive”
10. Lailah W.
“Lailah, walked our dog morning and night for five days in a row when I got hit with COVID. She did a fantastic job and really saved the day! Communicating was always easy, she was very nice, and my dog LOVED her. She would get so excited to see her each time. It was clear that she had good dog energy. I highly recommend trusting her with your pet. We will totally reach out again in the future. She did a fabulous job!!”
11. Elis L.
“Thanks to Elis, I learned how to take care of a dog. I've always loved dogs but didn't know how to look after them until I met her. Now, her family dog is a big part of my life.”
12. Dominique S.
“Dominique is polite and adores my pups. She has been dedicated to taking care of my pups while I was at work, or out of town. There is no one I trust more to look after my pets. I am only sad to see her move so far away. She left big shoes to fill.”
13. Katia T.
“Our dog loves Katia and is so happy every time he sees her! When she stayed with him for a week, she sent us regular updates and photos. He got lots of walks, playtime and snuggles, and we came home to a happy pup. I highly recommend her!”
14. Elizabeth R.
“Elizabeth was great! I was a little nervous about using rover, but she was so nice and even offered to stop by the day before to meet my pups! I was able to not stress about getting home on time, she kept me updated and even took pictures during the walk! My pups were nice and relaxed when I got home :) . Thanks Elizabeth!”
15. Melissa F.
“Melissa F. Is a sweet, caring individual of both pets and people, in my opinion. She's thorough, dependable, trustworthy and will go above and beyond to provide the highest level of care and attention that your beloved pet/s deserve, when called upon for assistance. She will treat your pets (more often, family members) as if they were her own. No matter their size, age, health or personality, Melissa is always kind and courteous to us and to our cats/dog. She was a delight to work with when we couldn't be present to take care of our fur babies due to traveling or out of town needs etc.”

About: What your pup gets on a stay stay with them: ~ At least 2 walks a day. ~ Affection galore (one of the most important parts, and they will still be happy to go home to you. :) ~ Feeding schedule and types of food stuck to (a change in food is one of the things that can make pups most nervous). ~ A peaceful time to sleep. ~ And, play! ~ and pictures and videos for you, depending on whether the pups keep doing what they are doing while I break out my phone. HaHa! My dear Poco has crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge: April 29, 2024. She lived a very long a full life and I continue this work knowing she is still my “assistant”. So when your pal(s) stay with me they will have a personal private stay. I work freelance, so am available most of the time (more times than not). I shift from thing to thing easily and always make sure the pets' needs are the first priority. Seriously though, making sure peoples fur-children are safe is my number one priority. I don't lead with that thought of what could happen in conversation because we never want to think about it, but I take safety measures such as always checking leashes harnesses are secure and tight enough they won't slip out. I wrap the leash around my wrist in a way that will keep them secure even if they get startled. I check areas to make sure there are no tempting things to eat on walks or in any areas. I listen to pet "owners" regarding what they know about their "kids" and make sure to follow instructions.
17. Evan P.
“Evan P. Is a very caring, empathetic person. He will treat your pet according to your specific directions. He is detail oriented, dependable and can handle any unusual circumstances that might arise in your absence. He is a great communicator who is dedicated to your pet's comfort and your peace of mind while you are away from your pet!”

19. Mark F.
“Mark Loves animals and has a certain way with them. He's able to connect to dogs almost immediately. I would absolutely not hesitate to let Mark take care of your wonderful pets. He is kind, considerate and very sweet to animals.”
20. Moriah G.
“Moriah had a quick response time. She was very good at communicating, leaving me at ease about using rover for the first time for my 6 month old puppy. Such a relief to know he got plenty of exercise, adventure, and potty time. I absolutely look forward and plan to use her services again.”
