1. Deanna H.
“Deanna was great with Mezo! His first time away from me with a stranger. She made sure he was comfortable and had lots of play time and had him settled by the next day. Highly recommend her! Also her kids are great with dogs. :-)”
2. Brittany D.
“Brittany was great! My pup Mia seemed to have a blast and fell right asleep after I picked her up. She loved playing at the dog park! Will definitely look to book with Brittany in the future”
3. Mora J.
“I couldn’t have found someone better to watch my pup. Mora went above and beyond. She allowed me to come to her house with my dog prior to the rover visit to make sure it was a good fit. She answered every question & provided multiple updates with pictures every day that Mabry stayed over. She took her for walks every day & Mabry came home tired and happy. This was my first time leaving Mabry with someone from rover & I would recommend Mora to anyone who needs to leave their pup & wants to make sure they are in good hands.”
4. Vanessa A.
“Sammy had a wonderful visit with Vanessa! She sent lots of cute pics and was very flexible with drop off and pick up. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”
5. Sloane F.
“Sloane was outstanding with her loving care for our two dogs. She kept in touch with us with regular checkins with some fun photos of our pups too. They even got to lounge on her furniture like they were royalty. ?. We will definitely use Sloane again in the future!”
6. Emily N.
“Emily was great with baby. In fact, I could tell my lil guy missed her a lot, because he ignored me when we got home. It took him a couple hours to decide he wanted attention from me. 😁 Emily kept me well informed throughout the entire time she kept my puppy. She sent pictures everyday, as well as details on his activities. I highly recommend her to take care of your fur-family member.”
7. Tania P.
“Tania was awesome!! Kept us updated of how our dog was doing and provided lots a pictures. She treated ours like one of their own. Will continue to use her in the future”
8. Martine & Ronald W.
“I could tell right away that Charlie would be in good hands with Martine and Ronald. After a weekend getaway, Charlie was relaxed and happy! Martine and Ronald truly love dogs and I will definitely use them again.”
9. Sarah R.
“I would give 100 stars if I could! I have such a hard time leaving my babies and being able to relax but I knew they were in such good hands I felt completely at ease. Sarah sent so many pics, videos and updates, it gave me such peace of mind. She is THE BEST.”
10. Kristien B.
“Kristien and her family looked after Leonard like he was one of the family. He always has such a great time! I really appreciate the communication and pictures throughout his stay.”
11. Olivia W.
“Olivia was amazing! So nice and made us feel at ease while we were away. I didn’t feel like I needed to worry about my dog at all and felt he was in amazing hands! She went out of her way, providing a painting activity and treat bag! By far the best sitter we’ve used on rover and we will 100% book her again!”
12. Valerie M.
“Valerie was the perfect sitter. She took great care of Buck and provided updates while we were gone. I would 100% use her again for watching Buck, Thanks Valerie!”
13. Avanthi & Bharath J.
“My dog LOVED hanging out with 2 other huskies and 2 wonderful people 🥰 I enjoyed the daily updates, pictures, and videos, and I was able to relax on my vacation knowing my fur baby was well taken care of 😊”
14. Jessica L.
“I love Jessica! I wasn't sure if it would be a good fit for me at first, considering my dog Teddy's temperament (he usually requires a lot of time to get use to other dogs, something we are working on with him right now,) but Jessica was very reassuring and worked well with him to make him more comfortable. The pictures that showed Teddy and her dog getting along well together helped me feel more comfortable about everything too. I would highly recommend her!”
15. Natalie O.
“She took great care of my pup while my husband and I were out of town. Our main dog sitter has been out of town for a couple months so we have been looking for an equally as great second sitter. I will definitely use her in the future!”
16. Krissy S.
“Jax had a wonderful stay! Krissy has a beautiful family, a big fenced-in yard, and dogs to play with. He’s currently knackered in bed, where I expect he’ll be for the day. ❤️”
17. Kimberly B.
“Kimberly has been our go-to pet sitter, and we couldn't be happier! Her communication is top-notch, and knowing our dogs are in good hands has allowed us to truly enjoy our travels. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter!”
18. Juliana & Kara P.
“Juliana and Kara are very friendly and sweet. They took such great care of Boba! Highly recommend :)”
19. Jerry Y.
“Jerry was super friendly, and was great with our pups. They were hesitant to leave, which is always a great sign to us that they enjoyed their time! We would definitely trust Jerry with our dogs again.”
20. Steve S.
“Steve works from home and is very invested in the pets that he keeps. His dog, Knox, is also very good with all types of canine guests. We received excellent communication with regular photos of our pup’s experience. Thank you, Steve!”
