1. Kayla M.
“All around wonderful! Kayla is so kind, conscientious and playful. It’s is a bonus that she has a lot of experience with dogs who will chase a squirrel at a moment’s notice or take off after something unexpectedly.”
2. Gab M.
“I found Gab to walk my 9.5 year old dog. He couldn’t be more responsible, reliable and wonderful with my dog! Gab is excellent with very prompt communication and he always shows up when he says he will. I love the pictures he sends too and my dog is very comfortable with him. I highly recommend Gab! I will be working with him again!”
3. Martin S.
“Martin has been phenomenal with my dog Goose. He is always on time and takes him for long walks around our neighborhood. Goose is a bit timid but has warmed up to Martin. I would recommend Martin for any dog walking needs!”
4. Vivian P.
“Vivian was a great communicator and awesome with walking both dogs at the same time.”
5. Brittany & Mico K.
“This was our first time using Rover and we could not have been happier with the service we received from Brittany. She really does seem to love dogs and our dog took to her right away. She came in advance to get instructions for the day and wanted to make sure she had the instructions correct. Brittany arrived on time the day of the service. She completed all the tasks asked of her, sent wonderful pictures of our pet to us so we could see he was being taken good care of and sent a comprehensive report of the visit right after. Brittany also response extremely quick when contacted. We would definitely recommend and user Brittany's services again.”
6. Amanda B.
“Amanda is compassionate and attentive. She was wonderful with my older dog who can be a little fussy and stubborn, and who has some special needs. I came home to a very happy dog!”
7. Eliza M.
“Eliza is wonderful. She is reliable and energetic, which is what we need since we have trouble giving our energetic dog all of the exercise he needs.”
8. Myriam B.
“Myriam is an exceptional caregiver for pets. She walked and took care of my dog Luna with such care and love while I was away. I highly recommend her for Rover.com.”
9. Ankur G.
“Ankur did a great job walking my dog. Even though it was raining pretty hard, he didn't let it bother him or my dog.”
10. Sarah T.
“I came home to a happy and relaxed Hunter after Sarah’s visit! Sarah is very reliable and I was also able to book her on short notice after someone else canceled last minute. I highly recommend Sarah!”
11. Sophie F.
“Sophie does a great job! She is reliable, on time, and always lets me know if my pup has any issues. My dog, Sonny, can be very selective and at the first meeting he trotted right up to Sophie with a wagging tail as if they were old friends. I know my boy is in great hands with Sophie.”
12. Quyn H.
“Neil and Nancy love Quyn! Quyn is great with the animals and is super thorough. Will definitely continue to use their services going forward.”
13. Olivia V.
“Thanks so much, Olivia. It was great to have a Lacey meet and greet walk with you today. You understood her nervous energy right away and she followed your commands well. Thanks for being so caring to our little one. We’ll schedule more walks and book home stays soon.”
14. Adam H.
“Adam came over to meet the dogs before his first walk with them. He is a calm presence and made me feel comfortable using Rover for the first time. Thanks, Adam!”
15. Lynn & Terrance T.
“Lynn and her partner did a wonderful job of taking care of my pup Mochi. They provided regular updates, gave him both playtime and mental stimulation, and also worked on some tricks with our dog. Highly recommend.”
16. Kristina G.
“Kristina did a great job and communicated what was going on very well! She also takes good pictures. I would definitely use her again! Thanks K!”
17. Sammie T.
“Sammie is not only my go to dogsitter, but the only person I trust to walk and watch my dog. My dog absolutely loves Sammie and when I know she’s coming over that day I know it’ll be a great day for my puppy. Sammie is so attentive to detail with my dog, reliable, and I know because she cares so much for my dog that she will do whatever is needed. She even found a public bathroom to wash Elle off in when she got dirty at the dog park so she’d be comfortable on her walk home. Once you meet sammie and she takes care of your dog once, you’ll never want anyone else coming by!”
18. Vasilisa C.
“Vasilisa is very attentive to Bruno and very responsive! I recommend her!”
19. Maia H.
“It’s hard to find someone who loves your dog as much as you do, but Maia does that for our dog! Piper always comes home from Maia’s tired and happy. I would highly recommended her to anyone!”
20. Oluwatobi P.
“I would recommend Tobi to anyone who is looking for a compassionate pet sitter. I have a cat, Opal for about six months while I was deployed out of the country Tobi watched her for me I was so happy to know I was able to depend on her and keep my cat healthy and well. Tobi made sure she was well fed and played enough. She sent me photos of Opal and constantly stayed in contact with me.”
