“Jocy was amazing! She gave the best updates throughout the day and took such amazing care of our fur baby. We loved all the pictures and videos, and the attention to detail to meet our pups’ needs was above and beyond. We will definitely use her services again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pawfect sitter. :)”


“Whitney was so great with our dog maya. She was on time for pick up and drop off and sent plenty of pics throughout the day. We felt that maya was taken care of and that made us feel at ease! Will definitely be using her services in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Araceli is fantastic. My dogs love being with her. She is always so responsive and she let me drop off the dogs two hours earlier than I initially asked for which was really helpful due to travel plans changing.”

“Michelle was great with our dog Trucky. At 2yo he still has a lot of puppy energy but really just wants to be loved on 24/7. Michelle kept us up to date with pictures and pick up and drop off went off without a hitch!”
“Layla was great at communicating updates and sending pictures. She even noticed a few health issues my dog was having and reported them to me. Layla cared for my Cooper as if he were her own dog. I highly recommend choosing Layla for your pet sitting needs!”
“Kylie and Anthony took amazing care of our Adonis! They met his needs and were super accommodating to us as we had unexpected travel delays. Will definitely use their services again. I felt so comfortable leaving our pup in their care. He was taken care of like their own family.”

“Our dog loves staying with Alex! This was our second booking. She was so excited to see him again. Alex takes great care of her and keeps us updated on how the stay is going.”

“This is my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. Shana was amazing. We met couple of days before so my dog could get familiarize with her. She sent me photos, videos and updates every day. 100% worth it and recommended.”

“Maryjane did absolutely amazing with my pup! Constantly sending me videos and pictures with little notes on how everything is going!!!! Definitely put my mind at ease knowing she cared and he had 3 playmates at all time:)”

“Ana is my go-to sitter in San Diego! My dog gets anxious away from home and Ana created a calm and welcoming environment. He’s also a picky eater but takes oral medication everyday. Ana was able to ensure he was taking his meds. It was such a relief having someone so wonderful and attentive watching him while I was away. I also appreciated all the communication—lots of photos and texts describing daily walks and activities and anything that was out of the normal. Can’t recommend Ana enough!”

“Ami treated my boys well and kept me updated as one of them was having trouble adjusting to a new location. I really appreciate her patience and graciousness in caring for the boys. They both came home healthy, happy, and worn out. I’d definitely recommend Ami to other pet parents.”
“David was terrific and very communicative. Romeo had a great time staying over while we were out of town. David’s home is lovely and has a nice fenced in gravel yard with a deck, which is perfect for a labradoodle to stay clean. Romeo got along well with David’s dog, who is a sweetie.”

“Yuki came at a perfect timing during a last minute situation and took amazing care of my dog for a couple days! Highly recommend Yuki and her family and they will make sure that your pet is safe and having the time of their life!”

“Linda provided great care for my mini poodle for 6 nights. I was out of town and Linda sent email updates daily sent one video of her playing. The messages were reassuring that she was happy and safe. When I travel again I will definitely have Linda take care of my dog.”

“Kaitlin and Verle were great. The perfect place for our dog to stay. From the meet and greet to drop off and pickup, it was all good vibes. They also provided great updates during nacho’s stay with them. Highly recommend!”

Kensington dog parents share their Rover experiences
I could not say enough great things about Shana! This was our first time leaving our puppy while on a trip and we were very anxious about it. Shana made sure we had all of our questions answered and sent constant updates about how she was doing. From what we saw Shana treated her like her own dog!

I honestly can’t say enough great things about Ziting. She was the most caring, communicative sitter I have ever come across on Rover. Murphy was with her for over a week and I received multiple pictures and updates every day throughout his stay. I felt extremely confident that he was well cared for and receiving plenty of love and attention. Her pup Zuzu is a sweet little angel and you can tell that she lives in a very loving, stable environment. Murphy absolutely loved staying with them and I highly recommend her services!

Shelby was absolutely amazing with our pup, Oakley! She had the best time and was so clearly loved and cared for all weekend. We got tons of updates, and it was obvious Oakley was getting plenty of attention, walks, and frisbee time. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was treated like part of the family. We’d highly recommend Shelby to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!

Rachel watched my dog Tulip for me while I took a weekend getaway. At our meet & greet Tulip ran to Rachel like they were friends for years. She gave me updates and picked Tulip up & dropped her off as planned. Everything went smoothly and I’d definitely use her the next time I’m away!

Sam is as very accommodating and great communication. He was able to fulfill a last minute request which was MUCH appreciated! I know my dog had tons of fun as he snoozed most of the day after I picked him up. Got great updates over the weekend trip and will be using again!

Hannah’s been great with Terra, who is generally quite anxious when meeting new humans in a new place. We could see her getting more comfortable on the pictures and videos we received. Super reassuring. Definitely recommended. And looking forward to another boarding! Thanks.

Nicole was very responsive and compassionate for our pups. Her pup is also friendly and got along with our two fur babies! Nicole sent photos on a daily basis showing how great they were doing, while we were away on vacation. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone that is looking to have their dog being taken care of, great job!
