“It was my first time using rover and I was very concerned before I met Karen, she did such a amazing job, I couldn’t be happier, everything was perfect, she also helped me out with the rover website, Hachi loved her and I was very impressed by her knowledge about dogs, thank you so much, on my next travel you will be the first person I’ll contact !!”
“My dog Mya had a wonderful weekend at Matthew’s! He was so accommodating and understanding of her anxieties, which is very appreciated! Communication was great, I loved getting pictures and updates of her all weekend! Would definitely recommend, and would book again!”
“Keasha took great care of our dog Arnie. We got daily updates during his stay, and I did not have to worry about him while we were away. We would definitely be happy to have Arnie stay with Keasha again in the future!”
“We are so happy to have found Lisa. She and her family are so nice. It’s exactly what we were looking for. Our senior dog seemed to fit right in! Lisa sent us regular updates throughout the stay and we felt very comfortable. We will definitely call her again. Thank you so much!”
“Alyssa was the first time I ever hired a pet sitter 😊. I was super impressed!! Willow is a rescue we only had about a month, so we were concerned about having her get nervous and anxious in a new environment and away from us. Alyssa kept us updated on my Willow's stay - pictures and prose. We were so relieved to see Willow getting along so well with Alyssa. Willow came back content, and we were so happy to have found Alyssa!! Your pets will be so lucky to have Alyssa care for them; do not hesitate in the least. You will see for yourself what a loving and codependent care she gives them !”
“Karen is very sweet and caring. She loves pups and treats them as their own. Our dog stayed with her while we were on vacation for a week and we were not worried at all. Her dog is gentile and very playful which our dog loved. They played together a lot and it was sad to take her away from him when we got home. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Jessica is a true dog lover. There should be absolutely no worries with leaving your dog with her. Abu is precious as could be. Very detail oriented to make sure taken care of per your instructions with the utmost care. On top of making sure your dog cones first - toys, walks, food amd etc. No hesitations and will be booking again and considering Jessica my dogs go to sitter handsdown. It can be hard to find someone you trust like Jessica.”
“Cierra and her family did a great job boarding my dog for a long weekend. Communication was fantastic and my dog was thrilled to have lots of love and attention. I had no doubt he was in good hands.”
“Isabel is so caring and kind. She constantly sends updates and pictures. My dog has separation anxiety and does so well when visiting with her. I highly recommend her!!”

“I left my 5 month old pup with Boa while on a vacation out of the country. I can highly attest that Max received superior care and extensive love! In addition to the great care, Boa consistently sent updates along with pictures of Max during his stay. My plans are to continue to use Boa when I travel. Five stars!”
“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”
“Jay & Faith were wonderful. I was grateful to receive regular updates and photos of my pup throughout her stay, and they made me feel confident that she was safe and loved while I was away.”
“Anely took great care of our 10 yr old cattle dog mix Pepper! When I picked him up he was relaxed and not overly rambunctious. It seems like he felt safe and was exercised and mentally stimulated plenty. Anely’s photos and reports were reassuring as Pepper isn’t always the easiest dog to just leave with anyone. Anely is very careful and considerate with her charges.”
“I’m so lucky to have found Leanne and her family! I never have to worry when my dogs are staying with them, they have a lot of experience handling multiple dogs who have their own quirks too!”
“We are so happy we booked with Ty! Her and her family were so good to our dog Scout and she provided the best updates and pictures. We would definitely book with Ty again ☺️”
“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”

Johnston dog parents share their Rover experiences
I truly cannot recommend her enough! From the moment she started caring for my puppy, Sancocho, I knew he was in the best hands. Not only did she go above and beyond in meeting his needs, but she treated him with so much love, patience, and attention as if he were her own. What meant the most to me was the constant communication. She sent frequent updates, pictures, and videos that reassured me he was happy, safe, and well cared for. As a puppy parent, that level of thoughtfulness and transparency made all the difference. I never once had to wonder how he was doing. She exceeded every expectation, and I came home to a well cared for, happy pup. If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and genuinely compassionate, she is the one. I would trust her with Sancocho again in a heartbeat!
