This was our first time using Rover and found the best dog sitter in Mahnaz. She took incredible care of our Olive, even when she had some digestive troubles. She does an amazing job of sending texts, pics and videos, giving us regular updates. We felt at peace knowing our puppy was in Mahnaz’s care. We are so grateful to have found a dog sitter we love and trust. Thank you Mahnaz!
Karla and her husband took such wonderful care of my dog Lilo during her overnight stay! I appreciated their helpful communication and the effort they took to get to know Lilo and help her feel at home. Would highly recommend! :)
Jessica is truly amazing! She is so gentle and loving. Every day, she would send updates and pictures on our pup. If there’s anything unusual, she would notify us in time. Her interaction with our pup made us feel at ease.
Our boarder collie Haru did a trial stay with Meagan for one night. This was to test whether Haru can comfortably stay with her for a longer time during our upcoming trip. Haru seemed very comfortable with staying with Meagan and Jason looking at the photos she sent us. Thank you Meagan and Jason for taking care of Haru. I can go on a upcoming trip worry-free!
Jesslyn is a kind and caring animal lover, who has taken such good care of my toy poodle FiFi on numerous occasions. Highly recommended!
Chloe has watched our dog Bella a few times and always does a wonderful job!! Bella always comes home happy and clean! We highly recommend Chloe!
My dog Milo gives her two paws up! 🤩 She treated him like he was one of her own. Her dogs were well behaved and welcoming to Milo. No scratches or bites or concerns. I’ll be using Dianna again in the nearest future.
Doug took wonderful care of Bowey! Bowey had a great time and he even got to meet some furry friends while he’s there. Doug was super responsive and the process from booking to pickup was a breeze. We will definitely book with him again, thank you!
Alex was great with our girl Nella. She provided daily updates and some photos which was great as we were missing her and it put us at ease since it was her first time staying with Alex. It seemed like they both enjoyed each others company over the weekend. We will definitely use Alex again for any future needs. Thank you!
Nova was incredibly caring and attentive to our elderly dogs needs. She truly went above and beyond while our dog stayed with her. Nova even made home cooked food for our doggo. She sent frequent updates and established a great routine that helped our dog with anxiety and stomach issues.
Connie is always a fantastic sitter! My dog had a great time with her during her 2-week stay. I always got multiple pictures throughout the day, every day.
As a first-time Rover user, we had a good experience. Igor was kind enough to meet us a couple of days before so our dog, Rocky, could have a brief meet. Igor and his wife were very friendly. They live in an area with lots of walking trails, which is ideal for daily walks. Igor provided pics and videos daily, which was very reassuring. Overall, it was a great experience.
Katie continues to be the best dog sitter for our Tilly Girl. She’s always so caring in understanding Tilly’s routine, sends the cutest photos as updates, and make sure Tilly is as comfortable as possible while we’re gone. I can’t recommend Katie enough.
Ying was amazing! She took such great care of my pup and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. I could tell my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. It’s such a relief to find someone so reliable and caring — I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!
Croissant was really happy staying with Sungjin! He was prompt with replies and active in updating us with her walks and how she’s been doing, so we feel really at ease leaving our babygirl with Sungjin. Thank you so much for your love in taking care of her!
My dog, Arlo, stayed with Derek for over a week. I was given many picture and even some video updates that showed Arlo was in good hands the whole time. Quick to respond; would rebook.
Charlene and her mom are lovely people. JoJo came home happy and well cared for. I will definitely use them again in the future. Thank you, Charlene!
Worked out great! I was a little late due to my plane being delayed & they were very accommodating. Stuart didn't want to leave & Maverick kept trying to get out of the truck to go back inside.
