âSunday has been through a lot of difficult changes recentlyâa move, the loss of her doggy best friend and just normal growing up. Sunday is a sweet girl but can be high energy, anxious and a little mischievous. Megan and Jenny handled Sunday like absolute pros. Sunday was entertained with walks and lots of play time in their sweet house/yard. Jenny + Megan are responsible, reliant, and absolutely in love with their dog friends, not to mention flexible and easy-goingâthey treated Sunday like their own and I feel so thankful to have found such loving people to look after my girl. From the very first interaction they have been so responsive and accommodating! I hope to rebook them again soon, just so Sunday can get her fix!â

âAlex was a last minute God-send for me and my pup, Maxwell. She was super flexible as I managed flight and life delays. Her home is located in a great place for doggie to run and play - right across the street from a beautiful park! And it was clear that both her and her kiddos are big time animal lovers. Her partner even pitched in to help re-stich his bed that was falling apart when I dropped him off. Above and beyond! I would definitely recommend Alex and her family to offer consistent, loving and fun care for your pets.â

âHy and Arlo are so lovely and took such good care of our dog. He stayed with them for a week and he had a great time. We will definitely ask them to watch our boy again!â

âChad was caring and patient with my dog, and he was very responsive to my messages. He was able to stay home with her and provided regular updates, and it gave me peace of mind that she was in good hands while my husband and I were at our wedding.â

âMuriel is the best! Our dog, River, loves her and always rushes to her door when getting dropped off for boarding. Weâre grateful to have found a friendly and reliable pet sitter for River! Thanks again, Muriel! đâ

âIsaac and Jordan are wonderful! Our dog Ozzie loves staying with them and always comes home happy. Great communication and care. Thank you Isaac and Jordan!â

âDaniel loves staying over at Leeâs place! There are always other nice pups to play with, and he still gets plenty of individual attention and cuddle time đâ

âInkoo and Freya were great. My dog is a very shy and timid dog but was able to settle in and be comfortable in Inkoo's house in no time. If we find ourselves needing dog sitting services again, Inkoo will be our first call!â

âSharon was wonderful. She was very understanding of my dogs separation anxiety and really went out of her way to make sure he was able to settle. Sent lots of photos and updates!â

âDacyl did such a good job with our shy dog. We went away for a 3 week trip and received daily updates and pictures of the fun things they did. Our dog came out of her shell and loved spending time with Dacyl and her dog Stan. Dacyl was also really fast with responding to messages which helped make pickup/drop off easy. We came back to a happy healthy dog and would definitely board our dog with Dacyl again!â

âRachel is a terrific dog sitter! She is very responsive and communicative, and my dog had a great time with her and her dog. I appreciated the photos and videos of their beautiful hikes and play time.â

âLaura was awesome! She sent daily updates and pics and I could see that Finn was having a great time and well loved while I was away. Iâd definitely trust Laura again anytime to care for Finn â¤ď¸â

âMatthew and Van Jospeh did a wonderful job hosting our dog, Stanley, for a 2 night stay. They were very easy to work with, were flexible, very friendly, and Stanley seemed at ease the moment he met them. Would absolutely use their boarding services again. Thank you!â

âI really trust Benny to look over and work with my pup (Lucky). He made Lucky's stay very welcoming and comfortable. I definitely want to keep in touch with Benny to work with my pup and look over him.â

âMy dog loves Charlene! Charlene is not only caring, experienced and knowledgeable, but watched Hoku closely altering me to his picky eater tendencies and sleepy head ways. She sends lots of photos and videos to let you know how your dog is doing. The setting is clean, and while there were several dogs, there appears to be lots of space. The house even has air conditioning (a plus during the hot weather - better conditions for the dog than me.) Although happy to see me on my return after four days, I could tell he was comfortable and happy. Thank you Charlene! Hoku will visit again.â

âMonica was amazing to work with and super flexible when I needed to change my drop off time. Itâs clear that Monica has a ton of creature care experience and genuinely loves spending time with animalsâ


âJessie is the best. She was so communicative and sent so many pictures. Ellie had a great time with her, Cade and Eta. They took her on so many little adventures in the evenings and Ellie looked so happy and relaxed.â

âBen and his family took excellent care of Jackson. They were great communicators, sent lots of sweet pics and integrated him into the family. I think Jackson was a little bummed to have to come home. I will definitely use again.â

Fruitvale Station dog parents share their Rover experiences
Weâre so grateful for Hy and Arlo watching our pups for the past week. We have 1 dog that has social anxiety and have struggled to find a sitter who we feel comfortable leaving her with. Hy and Arlo were great! After the meet and greet we did with them, we felt confident weâd found people who would be able to handle our concerns. While in their care, our dogs did great and they sent us daily updates that made it easier for us to enjoy our vacation without worry. They exceeded my expectations and I will definitely recommend them to others.

Shannon & Rocky D are always great with Callie! They give Callie lots of love and attention. She always has the best time with them. Choosing a dog sitter can be stressful, but I never worry when Callie stays with Shannon & Rocky D. Iâll definitely be booking again.

Kelly was the best sitter for our pup. I knew she would care for our dog just as much as we do. It gave us a peace of mind while we were away and assurance that we made the right decision booking Kelly. Thank you Kelly for being so thoughtful and attentive, we appreciate you!
