1. Alyssa C.

“Alyssa was amazing! Otis can be a very picky, very eccentric dog; but he seemed perfectly comfortable with Alyssa and even asked for a snuggle in the morning. If he could talk, he’d probably rate her a 10/10. We would definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone with a more timid or anxious dog looking for an alternative to boarding, as well as anyone else!”


2. Nikole R.
“Nikole took such good care of my dog! He doesn’t take to new people easily but Nikole made him feel comfortable around her very quickly. She was very prompt and sent me lots of updates and pics. I would book with Nikole again for sure!”


3. Karen C.


“We will definitely book with Karen in future - totally reliable, trustworthy, sent lots of pictures and updates. Left Leo and our home in perfect condition. She deserves more than the five stars allowed here - truly a gem!”


4. Ona M.

“Ona took great care of my dog for the weekend! She took her on lots of walks and sent plenty of updates each day so that I knew how everything was going. She went above and beyond to help me out this weekend!”


5. David M.

“David is the first sitter we have used on Rover for our dogs and cat, while we were away for the weekend. He is phenomenal; our nervous pups took to him immediately and I got pics of relaxed, cuddling dogs - and our GSD is not typically a cuddler so this was even more remarkable. All the pets were calm and happy when we came home. He took great care of our home as well. We will definitely rebook! We are very happy with his care.”


6. Teri D.

“Teri was simply wonderful. She is a fantastic dog sitter and kept my crew safe and happy while I was out of town! I came home to a clean house and couldn't have been happier!!! I am torn recommending her because I want her all to myself lol but seriously hit up Teri shes awesome!”


7. Allison F.

“Allison did a wonderful job taking care housesitting my 2 girls this weekend. She was available and flexible with what I needed and left the house the way she found it. My dogs were happy when we came back, I would definitely ask her services again and recommend her to anyone!”

11. Daniel H.

“Danny did a great job taking care of my dog and house for 5 days. Did everything I asked of him and my dog didn’t seem to be sad while I was gone even though we are very attached. This tells me Danny kept him busy and happy. Got lots of pictures and videos. Will definitely be rebooking with Danny!”

15. Hayley B.

“We just got back from our weekend away and I think our dog wishes Hayley were still here! She did an amazing job taking care of our pup and went above and beyond to make sure he was well cared for all weekend. Hayley provided us with regular pictures and updates and our house looked like no one was here, even though she stayed all weekend. We truly appreciate Hayley staying with our guy and will plan on using her again in the future!”


16. Melaney T.

“Melaney is wonderful with my two cats. I appreciate her communication- she sends updates and photos throughout the visit which gives me peace of mind while I’m away. I can tell by the way my cats act when I get home they are well taken care of by Melaney,”

18. Drew A.

“Drew was fantastic! It was my first time using her and as I got to learn more about her I learned she is very much trying to pursue a career in taking care of animals. I have a Pomeranian, who we all know can be high strung and bark a lot. She did not complain at all about his barking and said he behaved very well. She even cleaned and washed the blanket and pillow cover I gave her to use. She obviously did my dishes too. I already plan to book her again next year. She's a great find! And very sweet!”


19. Amber L.

“Amber was so great to my dog and to my space while she stayed. I would definitely recommend her to care for your dog!”
