“Five stars all the way for Sondra and Kirk! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Leaving our fur baby Bolo in someone else's care is always a little nerve-wracking, but Sondra and Kirk made the whole experience a walk in the park! From the initial "sniffing out" meeting to the moment we picked up our happy pup, they were absolutely paw-some! Communication was im-paw-sibly easy - they were super responsive and sent us regular "pupdates" and photos, which really put our minds at ease. It was clear Bolo was having a ball hanging out with them and their other furry friends. He came home tired and happy, which is all we could ask for! We really appreciated their flexible and accommodating nature. They truly went above and beyond to make sure Bolo felt loved and cared for. We're so glad we found them on Rover - they're the ulti-mutt dog sitters! Thank you, Sondra and Kirk, for taking such great care of our Bolo while we were away. We're already planning our next trip knowing we have such a paw-sitively wonderful place for him to stay! You're the best! 🐾❤️”
“After picking up Tanuki, I could tell she had a wonderful time with Sandra and her family. Sandra did a great job making sure Tanuki was comfortable and well taken care of, and sent me updates with pictures daily. It also warms my heart that Mocha and Tanuki became fast friends! Thank you for Tanuki's fun-filled weekend!!”
“Radhika is amazing to say the least. From the time we connected, she has kept me informed (I am new to Rover) about what to expect. She took great care of my little paw baby and we can’t wait to go back soon! Thank you Radhika 🙏🏼”
“Always amazing have had the pleasure of using Anna multiple times and am always very happy with her care for my dog on short and longer stays.”
“Cathleen treats your dog like her own and makes sure to send daily updates!! You can tell she really cares. A loving dog sitter I would definitely recommend and rebook with!! :)”

“Danielle was incredible with our dog, she took the time to meet and greet with our pup and made sure he was comfortable with the other dogs. She sent us regular photos and updates as well, which is really nice to have when you’re leaving your dog with someone. This is the best experience we’ve had so far in our area and we’ll definitely be hiring Danielle again in the future! - Rachel”
“We love Thuy and her family, they always take such good care of our dog Juniper. Very responsive and sends cute pictures. We will definitely use them again! ❤️”
“Eric and Allison were amazing! My dog Dixie had the best time at their house with their dog and family. Their communication and updates through the stay was perfect - we will definitely be rebooking!”
“Ellie and her family spoiled our dog Jager. He enjoyed a great deal of walks and playing. They even offered him a bigger and more supportive bed than the one I brought over. We will see if Ellie and her family are available to dogsit Jager again the next time we go out-of-town.”
“Hillary was fantastic and so communicative. She took excellent care of our extra high energy pup, ensuring he got all the activity and love he needs. Next time we need a sitter, she will be the first person we reach out to!!”
“Nika watched Louis for a whole week and went above & beyond. She made sure Louis was comfortable and sent regular updates. I am so happy with how much Nika cared for Louis. We are looking forward to next time. 🐾❤️”
“Lee was an attentive, thorough, and communicative sitter who was excellent in caring for my pup as she was recovering from surgery! She updated us with photos consistently and was able to keep Daisy on her schedule. We highly recommend her!”
“Victoria is a godsend! I have two very attached Yorkies, who are always with me and it’s been hard to go anywhere for the last two years. I had to take a trip overseas to meet my baby nephew, and I was having such anxiety about what to do with the dogs. I met with at least four different caretakers on Rover. I decided to go with Victoria because her house is like a big playground for dogs and she lets them sleep in the bed with her. It was one of the best decisions I’ve made all year. Dropping them off was very hard. I cried as I left and worried about them for the first night. But Victoria was wonderful. She sent constant updates with pictures and cute videos. She even went out of her way to make music videos and create personalized doggy tote and artwork for me! Victoria even cleaned them up. By the time I picked them up eight days later, Victoria became their bonus mom. To top it off, they’ve been so much better behaved. I told her she is the dog whisperer. I am so grateful to Victoria (and her adorable pup, Albert) for taking such good care of Hugo and Riri. I’ll definitely be using her in the future. It’s nice to get a semblance of life back and know they are in good hands. She truly loves dogs and it shows.”
“Brenda was amazing with Dixie! We felt like Dixie was in such great hands, which made for a worry free trip for us. Brenda is an amazing communicator and caretaker. Highly recommended!”

“I've trusted Jennifer with my dog Koda a handful of times now, and I couldn’t be happier. Koda always comes home happy, tired from playtime, and honestly, he never wants to leave when I go to pick him up! It’s so clear how much Jennifer genuinely cares for the dogs she watches—she treats them like they’re her own. That kind of love and attention is rare, and it gives me total peace of mind whenever Koda is with her. I can’t recommend her enough!”
