Araceli was amazing she took my dog on in very short notice for the holiday weekend. Very kind, clean home very dog friendly. She treated my dog as if she was her own. She gave updates which was very appreciated. I would 100% book again with her. Thank you so much Araceli.

Chau is so great with our puppies. She tolerates our bratty puppy and is so gentle with our old man. She was so easy going to learn that our old dog had hurt his leg right before us having to leave town and didn’t hesitate to still watch them, even if it meant extra work and medication. We are so grateful for her!

PJ loved staying with Emily so much! Emily sent me pictures and videos of PJ getting lots of hugs and cuddles. I was so happy to know that PJ was safe and in good hands while my family and I were thousands of miles away on vacation. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Emily again because PJ loves her and gets his quirks.

Ana is my go-to sitter in San Diego! My dog gets anxious away from home and Ana created a calm and welcoming environment. He’s also a picky eater but takes oral medication everyday. Ana was able to ensure he was taking his meds. It was such a relief having someone so wonderful and attentive watching him while I was away. I also appreciated all the communication—lots of photos and texts describing daily walks and activities and anything that was out of the normal. Can’t recommend Ana enough!

Alex took amazing care of my beagle, Rusty, on super short notice—and I couldn’t be more grateful. He was incredibly kind, communicative, and sent multiple photos of Rusty enjoying his walks, which totally put my mind at ease. Rusty told me he had a blast and felt totally safe and loved 🐾😊. I’d absolutely trust Alex again in a heartbeat!

Madelyn is so good that my dog was barely excited to see me when picking him up after being gone for 5 nights. They bonded quickly and she was extremely attentive to his fragility post neuter surgery. Couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker. Will be booking again!

Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.

If you’re seeking a fantastic pet sitter I would highly recommend Maria. I have a Shiba Inu that is pretty fussy and Maria did an excellent job with her and she came home very happy. She provided regular video and photo updates and meet with us prior to boarding to make sure it was a fit. Very happy with the whole experience.

Lucy and Norah went above and beyond to take care of my greyhounds and make sure they had fun at their place. Greyhounds are a sensitive/needy bunch, so that says a lot about the care they received. I’m so grateful. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to them again the next time I need a dog sitter. Thank you both!!

I cannot put into words or say enough positive things about Zaira. I was previously using cage free boarding facilities to board my dog and would constantly worry whenever I was out of town. Wanting less stress for my dog, I opted to try a personal boarding experience through Rover. Zaira was amazing and so patient with my dog being nervous and shy around new people. By the end of the few days, they were best friends and I know my pup is always missing Zaira. If you’re looking for an attentive, sweet and stress free experience for daycare or boarding I highly recommend Zaira. Thank you!!!!

This was first time using Rover and Carolina made the experience so easy and stress free. My dog is a small, shy, senior girl 🥲 so you can imagine my worry. Carolina was so caring and accommodating with my girl. Seeing photos of my dog throughout the day helped me too. Don’t hesitate to book with Carolina, she is wonderful!

We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! Madelyn took wonderful care of our dog from Wednesday night through Sunday morning and kept us updated with messages and photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our Archer looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. It was clear that she genuinely love animals and treated our Archer like family. We came home to a relaxed and happy pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend her services and would definitely book with her again. Thank you for taking such great care of our furry family member. Our Maltese-Shih Tzu can be a little picky and attached to us, but she made him feel comfortable and loved right away. 🐾💕
