“Nathan and his family treated our girls like family. The pics they sent the pups were always “smiling.” Estrella was wonderful with both our little yorkies. We were appreciative of their hospitality and taking such great care of our fur kids.”
2. Lori M.
“Lori was incredible. Booked her last minute and she took such good care of our Frenchie. We got so many updates and we could tell he was well loved when we picked him up. Very grateful for wonderful dog sitters like Lori!”
3. Angie L.
“Angie is the absolute best! I brought my two dogs for a meet and greet before their stay and she answered all my questions and made me feel at ease. She has a lovely home and yard and you can tell how much she cares about dogs. I was nervous as I've never boarded before. One of my dogs is very nervous in new situations. Angie sent daily updates and pics text ands assured me he was doing great. And he was! Both my babies were comfortable, loved, exercised, and treated as part of the family. Angie is professional, kind, accommodating, and gentle. When I picked them up they were happy and worn out! Lots of play! We drove almost an hour out of the way to leave them with her. We will do it again! Look no further! ”
4. Pat M.
“Max had a great time at Pats place. Her place is very organized and she made sure Max was comfortable with meet and greets of the other dogs that would be with him during his stay. We were coming in from out of town and her communication always prompt and friendly. I highly recommend Pat and would use her again if ever back in that area.”
5. Shawna M.
“I don’t even know where to begin. This was my first time using rover & my first time leaving my dog with a stranger…. That quickly changed because I feel like Shawna is now family. Shawna had me bring my dog about a week before to see if the vibe fit and the love was undeniable. Her and her husband welcomed my dog Phoebe with open arms and I instantly felt comfortable. I had some anxiety before my trip and she went above and beyond to ease my mind. I got daily check ins and photos and videos of my dog. My dog is very high maintenance and can’t be around any other pets which was a perfect fit to stay at her house. I cannot recommend Shawna enough I would trust her to watch any pet. I even joked that when I have a human baby I would try and still book her through rover. Thank you for the amazing experience.”
6. Dawn B.
“This sitter was great. Perfect property for my dog as he is not used to being confined indoors all day aside from a few walks. He lives to run and chase squirrels! Dawn has a perfect friend for him there as well 'Dexter' which got along great with my boy. Great communicator, punctual, and even gave me doggie art with his paw print on canvass for me! Highly recommended! PJP”
7. Yuwadee G.
“Yu was great with my dogs and sent me lots of pictures! I know that they were well taken care of, one of them even got baths from having too much fun outside. I’m definitely going to use her again when we need to.”
8. Kaylee B.
“Kaylee was awesome! She loves dogs and is home with them most of the day! My Henry got plenty of attention as well as lots of playtime with” pup friends!” Kaylee provided me with daily updates and was always prompt with responses to me. I would definitely recommend Kaylee to anyone!”
9. Bobbie Jo L.
“Bobbie Jo is the GOAT dog Mom! If I could choose my life, I'd be her pet! There's nothing she can't handle. She LOVES ALL four legged friends. Dogs rule, people drool!”
10. Kera H.
“Kera was amazing with Javy! From the start, she made sure he was comfortable and well-cared for. We loved receiving daily updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Javy clearly enjoyed his time with her and was happy and relaxed when we returned. Kera’s reliability, communication, and genuine love for dogs truly stood out. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
11. Stephanie D.
“Stephanie and her family did a great job making our dogs feel at home. Our dogs love attention and exercise and they got that in Stephanie’s care. She was willing to send us photos and videos while we were away and my kids loved seeing their beloved pets had great care.”
12. Rachel and Mark B.
“Our Great Dane Match had such an awesome stay with Merry, Rachel, & Tony! He's a big boy and sometimes needs extra love and attention and that's just what he received! He's already looking forward to his next stay!”
13. Lendsey B.
“Lendsey was wonderful. She treated our boys (two 11 year old Shih Tzus) like her own. They even slept in the bed with her!!! We will definitely be back!”
14. Lena L.
“Lena was very gracious to meet & greet with us on short notice. Her home is 100% set up for the comfort & safety of the pups! I could see from the video & pictures that Lena sent me that Leda was very comfortable during her stay. Our flight was cancelled an hour before boarding so we were unable to travel and returned to get Leda that same day. I was prepared to pay Lena for the entire weekend, but she graciously insisted that I should only pay her for that one day since we had such long day at the Atlanta airport and unable to take our weekend trip. I will definitely be using Lena for our sitter again.”
15. Lynn P.
“Lynn was amazing with my dogs. I have 3 big dogs which can be a bit overwhelming for some, but she never once faltered at taking them into her home and treating them as her own. I received pics daily, they were snuggled daily by her entire family, she bought food toppers so they would eat while I was away and even gave them a toy to bring home. My dogs felt at home and did not come home stressed as they typically do from regular boarding. I will trust her to keep my babies anytime! She went above and beyond, loves animals, and it shows. 10/10 recommend her to baby your babies!!”
16. James H.
“James was amazing with Zippy! He sent me pictures, videos, and updates on her every day. It was the first time, while I've been on vacation, that I didn't worry about how she was doing and wondering if she was being properly taken care of. He treats the animals he sits for like they are his very own. I can tell when Zippy likes where she's going, as I'm sure most of you can with your animals, and she loves staying with James! She's totally calm with him. We will definitely be using James in the future and we highly recommend him for anyone looking for a pet sit. ”
17. Rosa R.
“Rosa was amazing! She gave me mini updates on how our dog was doing and sent pictures and videos. She's a great communicator, and is an excellent dog mama to her dog 🐶 I highly recommend Rosa!!”
18. Brittany B.
“Brittany is the best! She cares for our pup as her own, and we are so grateful to have peace of mind knowing he is happy and well cared for while we are away. Thank you Brittany!”
19. Staci & Nolan D.
“We had a wonderful experience! What a amazing family they were as well….Very sweet and caring. They sent pics every day and were incredibly loving to our dog. We will definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone!”
20. Monika Z.
“Monika took excellent care of our fur baby and was very communicative the entire time. She made us feel comfortable and jackson came home tired and happy. Will definitely be booking again!!”
