“Our pup Edie had the best 6 days with Derek, Stella, and their dog Lucy. We received daily updates including adorable photos too! We know Edie was well cared for and had a blast. This was our very first Rover experience and we are so happy that we found Derek and Stella.”

“Victoria was absolutely amazing with Oscar. She was very respectful of all the directions I gave her and made sure to send me frequent updates. I really appreciated all the photos she sent me of Oscar because they showed exactly how happy and relaxed he was in her home. Her whole family made Oscar feel so welcome that it honestly seemed like he became part of their household for a few days. The best moment for me was when I went to pick him up. Oscar leaned into her, gave her a hug, and kept looking back at her for more pets and attention. That told me everything about how well he was cared for and how safe he felt with her. I’m extremely happy with how his stay went. If you’re looking for someone you can trust with your dog, I highly recommend Victoria. She clearly loves dogs, treats them like her own, and gives you complete peace of mind. Oscar will definitely be staying with her again.”

“Sam was really fantastic! She provided consistent updates & photos. And she was so responsive the whole time. I could tell my pup was very well taken care of.”

“My dog loves staying with Sonia! Love the regular updates Sonia gives and how accommodating she is with pickup and drop-off times. My dog loves cuddling with her and always comes back happy!”

“My dog had such a great time staying with Selena, so many trips to the park, so many cuddles, so many pets and so many tongues out! Amazing communication and no shortage of pictures! Definitely recommend!!!”

“Truly impressed with Gabrielle and Paddy— they took on our grumpy chihuahua with only a few days notice for the weekend and provided him a comfortable getaway full of pets and butt scratches. Gabrielle was very communicative and gave us an end of day report and lots of pictures each night. We hope to use their services again in the future because they gave us such valuable peace of mind while we were away. Thanks again!!!”

“Chenyang did an amazing job watching over our Shitzhu Walle. Very responsive and made sure to send photos during his stay to give us peace of mind. Would definitely rebook!”

“Katie is the best! My pup, Chuck, loved staying with Katie and her pup while we were out of town. Chuck clearly had a blast and was tuckered out when he came home. Thank you, Katie!”

“My lil guy Bailey had a wonderful stay for 3 nights with Lei's family. He was well cared for and had lots of new friends to play with. Communication was excellent and received many daily cute pics and updates of him and gang. He went on many walks during the day and even had his teeth brushed on request. I was very pleased with the entire process and will not hesitate to have her watch him again. Thanks Lei!”

“Erica was incredible with our shy pup. She made sure he felt comfortable in her home and kept us updated with photos and videos. I could definitely tell he felt safe and cared for by her when I picked him up and I highly recommend Erica for your dog sitting needs. She is so warm, responsive and responsible.”

“Sofia was so great with our cat Rocky!! She was super communicative and allowed him to warm up to her and the space which allowed him to feel comfortable and safe with her. Would absolutely recommend!”


“I was a bit nervous leaving my dog with a new sitter for an entire week however we arranged a meeting to make sure our dogs got along. Kaz & Yoko have a beautiful yard and every day sent photos of my dog on hikes or playing with their dog & other dogs they watch. When I picked him up Ollie seemed happy & relaxed, would definitely recommend!”


“Katie was just fantastic. Knowledgeable, communicative, welcoming, and a pleasure to engage with. Seemed to take great care of Buddy, who seemed hopeful he'd get to stay longer. Completely recommend.”

“Lauren was great and very easy to communicate with! Sent me daily updates and kept me updated! Sophie definitely enjoyed her time with her and highly recommend Lauren to watch your pups!”

“I was very happy with Jesse’s dog boarding. It was the first night my dog had stayed overnight anywhere, and Jesse helped put my mind at ease with constant photos and check ins. My dog enjoyed playing with the other dogs and seemed to be in a great mood when I picked him up in the morning. Thank you Jesse!”

“Michael was amazing with our rottie! Because she has some leash reactivity, we met him beforehand so he could meet her and go for a short walk. You could tell immediately that he loves dogs and was very comfortable with them (especially big dogs). He sent updates and pics/vids while she was with him and we picked up a very happy and tired pup. We will definitely be using Michael again in the future! Thanks Michael!!”

“Paul and Mimi are the best. Our dogs love them! They play and walk and explore a safe, welcoming space. And we know this because P&M send detailed updates and photos. Thanks very much!!! We’ll be back.”

“Ingyin takes the best care of Reuben!! She is wonderful and Reuben always has lots of doggy friends to play with and I never worry about him when he is with Ingyin. Highly recommend!!”
