“Tammey was an amazing sitter. I could tell from the moment I met her that she was an animal lover, and she would take great care of our pups. She dealt with our dog's quirks like a champ, sent daily updates and photos, and walked and cuddled them so they felt right at home - so much so I was afraid they wouldn't want to leave! In dealing with us humans, she was always responsive, and extremely flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. I'll definitely be sending my pups to stay with her again!”

Friendly dog parents share their Rover experiences
I had never used Rover before and couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter than Brian! I received updates and photos throughout the weekend, making me feel confident that I had left Bernie in good hands. When I picked him up at the end of my trip, I got a happy, tired dog. I would absolutely use Brian again next time I have to leave town!
Max was great to work with and had excellent communication throughout our stay. Our sammy came back to us happy and tired. We will be using Max in the future.
Emilia was amazing! She sent photos/videos of Trout daily & he was so happy/healthy when we picked him up. Will use her again & again!
I dropped by little guy off with apprehension as he had recently been neutered and still had his cone on. But Francis took great care of him and returned him to me happy and healthy. We’ll be back!
Hugo did a great job with Lilo. He and his own fur babies took the time to get acquainted with Lilo ahead of time to make sure of a good fit. Communications were not an issue; Hugo made sure to keep us posted on Lilo’s progress throughout her stay.
They took great care of Phoebe! They sent daily updates, were responsive to questions, and we're flexible with our flight changes. I would highly recommend them.
Reina was awesome with our dog, Jules! He stayed with her for 4 days. She sent pictures of their walks and provided updates on his stay. Would definitely book Reina again for future trips!
Caesar took good care of Lucy. They got along well and she fit in with his dogs. Lucy is an older dog with some special food needs and Caesar took care of that.
Peanut Butter always has an amazing time staying with Hanna and Fabio and this round was no different. He was taken out on several adventures and we got to watch him have a great time via thoughtful and fun photo updates from Hanna and Fabio. We really appreciate their flexibility and communication and highly recommend their sitting services. Until the next time!
Clara is a fantastic sitter and I know she'll take good care of my dog while I'm away. I've had her watch my dog for several different trips and she is wonderful and so accommodating! She's been a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her!
Nicole is a wonderful sitter! We were so grateful to have found her. My dog was sad to leave (and he's normally happy to see me), which reflects well on the care and hospitality of Nicole and her husband. The next time I need a sitter I'll absolutely try for Nicole!
We left Luna for over 2 weeks with Kamira. Luna is not an easy dog but Kamira did wonderfully. Luna enjoyed being the only dog with a huge backyard. Kamira communicated with us constantly to ensure we knew Luna was doing great. Thanks to Kamira, my family and I had a great vacation knowing that our fury baby was safe and happy.
