2. Kim T.


“Kim and her partner were amazing dog sitters! They sent timely, proactive updates and made sure my pup was well acclimated with their dogs. Would definitely recommend!”


3. Sara B.


“Sara is seriously the best dog sitter I’ve ever had. She has watched my dogs on many occasions and has truely treated them like her own. She’s very conscious of their needs and really goes the extra mile to make sure they're not just well cared for but happy.”


4. Melina B.

“Melina is super sweet, caring and full of positive energy. She is great with communication, very punctual and fast to respond. Our puppy seemed super happy from the minute he met Melina until the end of his stay. We are sure he had a pleasant time and enjoyed his stay. We cannot recommend her enough, we already rebooked her twice and will always do if she is available!”


5. Suzanne E.

“Suzanne was fantastic! We would highly recommend her. She took great care of our small terrier and sent us regular pictures/videos of her playing and having an awesome time in the beautiful backyard space. She was sufficiently tired and seemed to really miss the company her new buddies. Thank you so much for helping us out during our time away! We will definitely leave our 'baby' with you again, if you will have her.”


6. April L.

“Our Mimi had her first overnight with April. Everything went great. April even constructed a ramp so Mimi could go up and down the bed without jumping. She is still in-coordinated after spinal cord surgery. This was meant to be a rehearsal before a 2-week boarding at the end of the month. We are so happy to know Mimi will be in good hands.”


7. Alexandra O.

“Hi Alex! I just wanted to say a huge thank you for looking after our Luna once again. Your care means the world to us, and we really appreciate all the love you give her!”


8. Nicola & Michael A.

“Both Nicola and Michael took such good care of my dog Lu. She was so happy when I picked her up. They understood very well, her needs and quirks. I appreciated that they were patient with her as new spaces can be a lot and she can be timid and scared. Will 100% book again!”




9. Jeff & Beth K.

“Leaving our pup Koda with Jeff and Beth always feels good. It’s our second time boarding with them and Koda seems to get so loved up and cared for by them and their sweet kids. We LOVE all of their updates and photos, they’re the best! And we were super grateful they were flexible to extend Koda’s stay one extra night. All in all such a good experience and I’m sure Koda is looking forward to going back! Thanks Jeff and Beth!”


10. Eleanna V.
“I have known Eleanna for 16 years and in that time I observed her dedicated and loving care of animals, specifically, the 3 cats and 1 dog (all rescues) that she provided home, shelter and love for the entirety of their respective lives. She also cared for my own dog on numerous occasions, including staying at my home for 2 weeks. As a very reliable responsible person I trust her implicitly; she possesses a calm, caring and patient demeanor. My dog adored her. I would recommend her as an animal caregiver without hesitation. Claudia Simone”


11. Danielle M.

“Danielle and Joel were great with our pup, Izzi. They took plenty of pictures, made sure he exercised daily and gave him plenty of love and cuddles. We would definitely recommend them and would book them again.”


12. Hy & Arlo K.

“Hy and Arlo were amazing as usual! They took great care of our dog during fireworks, always concerned about his needs and are so flexible and accommodating when we had a flight delay. There’s a reason Clutch always come back happy and loved!”


13. Chawntea P.


“Where do I even start? Chawntea’s reviews speak for themselves and after coming across her profile I knew that she would be a perfect fit for looking after my sweet boy. I received plenty updates and even came back to a freshly bathed pup which was so unexpected yet so appreciated. 100% recommend her and can’t wait for more fun times between Juice and Bailey!”


14. Chad A.


“Benny had fun with Chad. He sent me video and pics and made me feel Benny was in great hands. I will definitely have Chad watch Benny in the future.”


15. Zo H.

“Zo made our pup Kobe’s first weekend away from us an enjoyable experience! He had tons of fun running around and playing with her super friendly frenchie Bruno! If your pup has a specific eating/sleep schedule or allergies, she will be sure to accommodate. We also got daily pictures and videos throughout the weekend! Kobe came back to us at the end of the weekend happy and tired, we will definitely be using her for daycare and boarding services in the future!”


16. Karen M.


“Thank you to Karen for a wonderful stay. Yoshi really appreciates her and so do we. We received photos and details about their activities every day and he was very happy when we picked him up. Karen is a straight shooter who will tell you what training may help with your dog. Thank you, Karen!”


17. Kelly L.


“Kelly is amazing! She is the best dog sitter we’ve encountered this far! Took care of our senior dog so well, great communication, super attentive, and went the extra mile. Kaci can’t wait to stay with her again. :)”


18. Teetouch P.

“I have so many good things to say about Tee and his family. They took amazing care of my boy and sent me several videos and photos everyday of him doing the things he loves. Playing ball. Hanging with the other dogs. I knew from the minute I met Tee That Ted would be in good hands. You can tell he really loves and enjoys hanging with the dogs! I am so happy and I would highly recommend him above anyone I’ve met on Rover!!!”


19. Kaylyn S.

“You can tell Kaylyn really cares about cats. She treated my cat like he was her own, and you could tell in all the pictures that she sent that he looked so relaxed and content, even in the unfamiliar environment! 100% will be booking again.”
