Gabriela was awesome! I really appreciate the updates she provided and relayed concerns in regard to Milo. Milo is a tri-pod senior dog who requires patience and a lot of care and Gabriela delivered at 110%! This is the 1st time a left Milo with someone other than family and Gabriela now is a part of that circle. I will definitely use Gabriela again!

We were so glad that we booked with Rhea! She sent updates, photos or short videos each day, and she didn't hesitate to write to us with questions. She has a clean apartment, too, and she clearly enjoyed taking care of our dog! In addition, her dog is also a sweet guy. We appreciate that she doesn't take too many dogs at one time. We definitely recommend her!!

Ashley was nothing short of amazing. She made my dog very comfortable and kept her very happy. I felt so much ease leaving my dog with Ashley; she openly communicated, kept me updated (with pics too!), and was so understanding and accommodating my pups needs and even my own when I had a bit of a travel delay. I know my pup can be high energy and require a bit of attention but Ashley kept her busy and happy the entire stay. Definitely will be using her again, I know my dog will be excited to go back.

I had to go on something like 6 trips over the past couple of months and booked Jeffrey every time. He is the best dog sitter I have ever hired. He is extremely flexible, an excellent communicator, kind, and has a great, safe space for dogs to play inside and outside. You will not go wrong booking with Jeffrey.

Christina and her family provided Tootsie with exceptional care. Despite being out of town with limited cell service, Christina still sent updates. Her patience and love was greatly appreciated. This has been our first successful rover experience with a honest host who only accepted one client at a time. Tootsie was happy and has been napping peacefully since returning home. THANK YOU!! Would highly recommend to others!

It was my first time using Rover. Alexis was fantastic at watching my dog, Prince! She provided daily updates with pictures and videos, and it was obvious he was having a great time. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. Definitely a much better experience than a traditional doggy hotel. I will be using her service again. Also, I highly recommend her.

Kathleen was great taking care of my Smokey. Especially when he was neutered a week prior and needed to wear this big cone around his neck. Smokey takes medication to control seizures and needs to be hand fed. Kathleen was sooo involved and gave Smokey her full attention. Thank you so much Kathleen.

Emeline was a great sitter for our maltipoo while we were away on vacation for 12 days. Emeline was very welcoming to us when we first met with her, and we could tell she was confident in her ability. Emeline kept us up to date each day with a note and a picture of the days activities, which helped us know our dog was being well taken care of. We will use her again! Thanks Emeline!

I’m just not sure where to start to express my LOVE FOR LIZZY!!!!❤️❤️❤️I was new to Roover and my furbaby Zeus had never been outside of his home without me😩. Lizzy calmed my anxiety so well. She was so warm and inviting and even allowed for us to do a brief meeting a few weeks before our boarding time was set to start. Zeus absolutely loves Lizzy…. She took care of my baby for 5 days. I looked forward the picture updates I was get from Lizzy, she did a wonderful job setting my mind at ease. I will certainly be booking with Lizzy for all our boarding needs.❤️

This was my first time using Rover. I was very nervous because my dog is a 17 year old chihuahua and needs special care. Since his vision is poor now he needs slow movement and patience to get familiar with surroundings and people. He also takes several supplements and has special dietary requirements. Gabriela seemed very comfortable around my dog right away. Many people are afraid of small dogs, but she knew exactly how to move slow and was patient allowing the dog to become familiar with the new surroundings. I needed to find someone that could care for my little buddy while I took care of some emergency medical issues. I am so glad I found Gabriela. Everyday she shared pictures and an update regarding his comfort and appetite. This helped to ease my anxiety. I could see he was in very good hands. I highly recommend Gabriela ( and my little chihuahua does too!). THANK YOU GABBY!

Hoda has been an incredible sitter for my dog who has special needs and medications. Hoda took care of my dog for two weeks and was prompt and consistent with all her food and medication lists. She also sent regular updates and was available for prompt communication at all times. She kept my dog comfortable, clean and happy and we also did a trial sitting, which was very accommodating of hoda. Overall pleased and hoping to have her look after my dog in the future too .
