1. Lee J.
“Lee took such great care of our dog over the holidays. We were so at ease even as first time boarders. She sent frequent updates which we really appreciated. We will be using her services again and highly recommend for other dog parents”
2. Karen & Hisako N.
“Karen & Hisako were so great and patient with my anxious boy! He normally won’t walk with anyone besides me, but they got him to walk all the way around the block with them! Mini victory!”
3. Jeff & Beth K.
“Jeff and Beth are the best! They kept me updated all the time about my dog’s adventures and were kind enough to make sure Shiryu was always comfortable. Great experience. Peace of mind while I’m traveling. Would definitely like to take Shiryu back next time!”
4. Hanna M.
“Hanna was great with my pup Pacha all around! Caring and communicative and thorough - I felt so much more relaxed being away knowing she was in such great hands. Thank you Hanna!!!”
5. Sara B.
“Sara is amazing! She is very kind, loving, thoughtful, and attentive. Ruffles is not an easy dog! He’s highly anxious and kind of a bully, so I appreciate that she is firm, consistent, and most of all - loving! - with him. Thank you for taking care of my baby while I was away! I have peace of mind knowing he’s in Sara’s care.”
6. Danielle M.
“I've booked Danielle twice now for my dog, and I am quite picky about who I'm willing to leave him with. She took great care of him, and I will call her next time I need to leave town. I appreciated getting photos of him, and even a video. Thank you!”
7. Robert & Brian D.
“Nova had a fantastic stay at Brian and Robert’s! I received the most wonderful updates that really let me know she was relaxed and well taken care of. I really do think they loved and cared for her as if she was their own”
8. Pablo S.
“Pablo took amazing care of my Solo. He was very patience and attentive with her while in his care. He definitely went the extra mile to make sure Solo was comfortable while being away from home. I highly recommend Pablo for all your pet sitting needs and I will not hesitate to book again for any of my future trips. Thank you!”
9. Cydney D.
“Cydney was incredible! I felt so confident and safe with my dog in her hands :) she sent tons of pictures and was super communicative. Can’t wait to use Cydney for JJ care again!”
10. Mary C.
“Mary was an amazing dog sitter for Yali! We received multiple updates each day with super cute pictures. We could tell how well Mary cared for him and incorporated him into her routine, taking him on errands and walks all over the neighborhood. She was very considerate during our initial meet and greet, knowing how to introduce herself and her dog to Yali. This helped him feel comfortable and welcome in her home. She was so kind and sweet to Yali and we are looking forward to booking with her again!”
11. Sophia L.
“Sophia took care of our dog Allie for a couple of days while my wife and I were on vacation. Allie is usually very shy and scared of other people but she loved Sophia! Sophia gave us regular updates the days we were away and Allie was very happy staying with her. There were no issues and we would definitely have Sophia look after Allie again!”
12. April L.
“April did a fantastic job caring for Clio, our Chiweenie, while we were away for five days. She asked great questions beforehand about Clio's routines and behavior, and we appreciated the daily photos of Clio on walks, chilling out, etc. Our pooch was happy and healthy when we picked up her up. We would gladly ask April to care for her again!”
13. Mariola P.
“If I could give Mariola 10 stars I would! It can be very nerve wracking to leave your fur baby somewhere new, especially for an entire week, but immediately, I knew my senior pug Pennie was in excellent hands with Mariola! In fact, so much so, that Pennie was more than content to stick around longer when I came to take her home on day 8. I so appreciate having a loving, caring responsible dog sitter like Mariola so close by to care for my pug while I’m traveling for work. Thank you again so much!”
14. Magdalena H.
“Magdalena took amazing care of our pup, even when unexpected things came up. She kept us informed with pics and videos, we felt super comfortable entrusting her with the wellbeing of our dog. We'd love to work with Magdalena again in the future!”
15. Melina B.
“Melina was our first Rover experience and she made the process so welcoming. We'd never left our dog overnight with someone he didn't know – he's anxious, reactive and has separation anxiety, so it was important to us that we worked with with someone who understands and is patient with him. Melina was all of that and more! Within hours she had him snuggling up to her, and by the evening he was sleeping curled up next to her head. We got regular updates throughout the stay (including pictures) and felt so at-ease knowing he was well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Melina as a Rover, and especially for anyone with a special needs dog or a shy pup. She was amazing!”
16. Alexandra O.
“Alexandra was a great dog sitter. She provided regular updates and photos via text. Here proactive communication made me feel very comfortable and I will definitely seek her our in the future.”
17. Kim T.
“Kim and Jeff are wonderful, kind and loving! We are going out of town for a week next March and wanted to have our two little pups stay with Kim and Jeff for a trial weekend beforehand to make sure it was a good fit for everyone. It was beyond a good fit. Honestly, it could not have been better. We were updated with cute pictures and videos of Sweetie Pie and Daisy and they were happy and having a great time! When our 12 year old daughter saw the pictures and videos and her first comment was, “They treat our doggies as if they were their own!” This is an accurate statement! I feel completely confident in choosing Kim and Jeff to look after, and frankly, love our little ones. I am not sure that our doggies wanted to come home. :-) We highly recommend Kim and Jeff. They are true dog lovers and we are so happy to have found them! Sabrina & Jeremy Hamley”
18. Kelly L.
“Kelly is amazing! She is the best dog sitter we’ve encountered this far! Took care of our senior dog so well, great communication, super attentive, and went the extra mile. Kaci can’t wait to stay with her again. :)”
19. Tara Dawn A.
“Incredible sitter. Tara took really great care of Hank and was super communicative with pictures and updates. We will absolutely be booking with Tara again.”
20. Karen M.
“Great experience boarding our pup with Karen. It is difficult to find someone you can trust with taking care of your pup where you will be comfortable they will make the right decisions if anything unexpected arises. We are glad we spent the time to find and board with Karen.”
