“Natalia was awesome and took great care of our pup! She sent pictures and let us know how he was doing during his stay. Her communication was excellent and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Karrie was great! Our two dogs were in good hands. She sent pictures frequently and went above and beyond dealing with our large dog on walks. There was a fenced in yard to play in during the day also. We were glad we could relax during vacation knowing they were looked after so well. We will definitely be contacting Karrie next time we need some dog sitting. Thanks again!”
“Great Job As a pet sitter myself with rover You are a Rockstar Full updates pictures ect Kids loved the time with nugget I can definitely say I will use you again and again”
“Gina was absolutely amazing with our Frenchie fluffy, Bruno! She treated him like her own, kept us updated with cute photos/videos, and made sure he was happy, safe, and loved the entire time. Bruno can be a little spoiled and particular, but he adored her and felt right at home! We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend Gina to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and truly wonderful pet sitter. Five stars all the way! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Griffin & Gloria were easy to work with! good communication and I feel my lil fur baby was well cared for by them! It was a huge relief to have caregivers you are comfortable with and trust, to take care of your loved one! Thank you G&G! appreciate your help! :)”
“Anna was fantastic. She gave Leo his medicine and was very understanding and kind when he ended up getting sick. Provided updates and pictures throughout his stay. I would definitely recommend Anna and Leo can’t wait to go back.”
“First time ever to leave our 3 yr old golden doodle. Elizabeth was wonderful. She walked her twice daily and sent pics and updates every day. We never worried once during our 4 day trip. Rebooked her immediately for our next one.”
“Angie C is the best. She gave my Bailey the best experience for her first time away from home and me. Angie and her family gave her so much love that Bailey cried when it was time to leave. Angie sent me pictures everyday, even gave her a bath and took her for walks. I recommend her 100%.She was amazing!”
“Aaron is the best! He sent us pictures of our boy Yorick and took great care of him! We are very thankful to have found a sitter that enjoys having Yorick around. ? Already booked our doggies next stay!”
“Laura is the best! Her level of care and snuggles was excellent. My dog is usually overexcited when I get home: after time with Laura, she was happy, but significantly less excited to see me than she usually is post trip.”
“We had an outstanding experience with Sarah & Cyrus and couldn't be happier with the care they provided. From the very beginning, they kept us updated with daily messages and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. One of our Goldens wasn't feeling well during the stay, and they went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, monitored him closely, and kept us informed every step of the way. It was clear they genuinely cared about our dogs' well-being and treated him like their own. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups, and we truly appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and attention they showed throughout the entire stay. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter, and we would absolutely book with them again!”
“First of all, I was impressed with Lauren’s perfect dog friendly house where any pet would be so comfortable and loved. But more important, our dog Bentley, who has become more anxious as he ages, spent the first 12 hours at Lauren’s highly restless and even peeing inappropriately despite all of Lauren’s efforts. Our family was in Colorado and Lauren was awesome working with us long distance , but especially with Bentley to help him get his calm back and once over his initial jitters, he was a good guest in her house. I can’t thank Lauren enough for her willingness to work through all this with us and for being so chill with it all. It was a lot and she was wonderful! She should always be a first choice if you’re looking for someone kind and patient to watch your pet.”
“Stephanie was great with Coco and Mickey! She kept us updated and sent us photos of them. The pups had fun during their stay. Stephanie was very caring and listened to us about the care that both dogs need it! She asked questions to make sure she accommodated all their needs. I highly recommend her to everyone! We will definitely keep her in mind if we need someone to take care of our dogs while we are out of town!”
“Made me feel a lot better leaving my dog by receiving pictures and updates from petra regularly. My dog is elderly but hyper, and I can tell he had a extremely fun weekend because he slept for a few hours when he got home. He is a very happy puppy and I will definitely be back for our next trip! Thank you petra!”
“Amanda was wonderful with my fur babies. She is responsive and sent so many pictures of them all having fun. We will definitely be using Amanda again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gardner
Natalia was absolutely amazing with my dog. She was so quick to respond and helped me through my process of using Rover for the first time. She is so sweet and made sure I was at ease by sending pictures. Will definitely be interested in using her again in the future!
What a great first experience with Rover! When searching for a good fit I of course went to reviews and Sarah’s were all 5 Stars and I now know why. Sarah and her family took in our Labradoodle like she was part of the family. That’s all we could’ve asked for. She sent pictures and didn’t hesitate to ask questions to make sure Harper always felt comfortable in her new surroundings. We will definitely be using Sarah again!
