“Reginay was amazing in taking care of my 2 year old energetic dog Canelo. He immediately felt comfortable with her and in her home. She sent pictures regularly that reassured me that he was well taken care of and happy. I’ll definitely be booking Reginay going forward. Canelo loves her!”


“Alexandra made our first rover experience great! She provided us regular updates with photos, and gave us peace of mind while Yeti was away. She’s so thoughtful and makes sure your pet has a great stay!”


“Katherine was a fantastic sitter for our senior pup Amara and I would happily be a return customer! She was available to accommodate Amara super last minute, which was life saving, and she really understood the needs of a senior doggo with a particular personality. She was very thorough, even communicating which vet she would use in case of emergency (don’t worry, no emergencies occurred!). They had a great time hanging out in her back yard, going on strolls and snuggling on the couch. Amara was a very happy girl at the end of her stay and I would definitely recommend Katherine as a Rover sitter!”


“We dropped off our lil guy for 2 weeks over the holidays and couldn’t have been happier with Bari. She was giving us constant updates and pictures. It was a great peace of mind knowing he was having fun and being cared for!”


“Rebecca provided excellent card for Finley, including a bath & socialization. I could tell he really took to her by the end of the visit which is the ultimate indication. Rebecca communicated well and send fun pictures.”



“Demetra was the perfect sitter for our little pups and was able to watch them last minute on a holiday weekend! Olive and Oscar were very taken care of and had all of the love and attention they needed! Highly recommend!”


“I reserved time for my pup to spend the day with Achara and her dogs based on her reviews. She sent a couple photos to update me on his day. I picked him up and he was worn out! Archara is very responsive and responds quickly to messages. I would use her again.”


“We had a fantastic experience with Martha as our dog sitter! She was incredibly flexible with the booking process, which made everything so easy and stress-free. Throughout our time away, she sent regular updates and photos of our puppy, which we really appreciated. Martha also took him on walks and gave him lots of attention and care. He came home happy and relaxed. We could tell she truly loves animals. Would I recommend her to others? Absolutely, without hesitation!”


“I would definitely recommend Brandee 100% she was so sweet, she is my first pet sitter and will continue to take my pup with her. I left my pup Benny for a couple of days and he seemed really happy to be there in all the fotos he was smiling and playful with her pups and daughter as well !! He didn’t want to leave which is the sign I was definitely look for. She gave my pup the proper attention and was treated equally. As for the communication that was definitely the best part, I didn’t have to ask how he was doing because she gave me updates throughout each day provided me with plenty of fotos and videos. With that being said me and Benny will continue to look forward to seeing Brandee again😊🐾.”


“Noelle had great communication the whole time Holly was staying. She sent cute pictures each day, and Holly seemed totally relaxed at her place. Holly was wagging her tail like crazy at pick-up time, and I wonder if she even wanted to come home with me. 😆 Will definitely use Noelle in the future for watching Holly.”


“Grisel kept us updated daily with Avery’s status along with pictures and videos. She even reached out when Avery was having anxiety from fireworks noise to find out what we do to help her, and offering some suggestions. Avery really enjoyed playing with Grisel’s dog Palermo. We will definitely use Grisel in the future.”



“It was our first time using Rover and I was a little nervous. Michael eased my mind and I knew Cooper would be in great hands. From the meet n greet I knew Michael was going to give my boy plenty of attention and then once we dropped him off I saw them on a walk right away. I got plenty of updates of them on walks and pictures of him on their adventures and him pooped out afterwards. Cooper enjoyed his stay and we will definitely be booking a stay with Michael again!”


“Ana is lovely. She has a great knowledge of cats and how to make them comfortable. She is very patient and it’s very obvious she loves cats and takes great care of them. Our cat was happy and relaxed with her.”


“Zariyah, my girls had a good time at thier home with the other dogs. They were comfortable walking around the place and we're safe. I'm thankful for the last minute booking acceptance. Thank you Zariyah and family.”


“Young and Emilee were so wonderful with our Frenchie Zoey! They sent videos and pictures and honestly Zoey was a little depressed on the way home! Haha! She loved being there with them!”



“Megan was great! She was available for a meet and greet and I felt very comfortable leaving Daisy there. She updated on Daisy and was easy to get ahold of. I would definitely recommend Megan.”


“Stephen and his pups were kind and provided a safe environment for our pup while we were out of town. He sent pictures and kept us up to date throughout the stay.”


“I was confident that my fur baby would be safe and loved at Michelle & James’. They are natural dog lovers. My dog was healthy when I picked her up. I received regular updates and photos and could see she was happy during her 10 days stay. M&J obviously care for their boarding dogs as their own. I would book again.”
