“Vanessa watched our pup for us while we went on a three week trip! We were a little nervous because this was by far the longest we'd ever been away from our dog, but Vanessa made us feel at ease and sent us lots of updates and photos - even when we didn't reply for a day or two at a time due to lack of service!! It seemed like Chickpea had a blast and spent lots of time running around outside in the nice fall weather. Chickpea had so much fun she hardly wanted to come home with us 😂😂 Vanessa is the best!!!”

“Nicollette did a wonderful job taking care of Rocket for a week. She was very patient and caring towards our puppy. Rocket has a lot of energy and she provided situations that helped with that behavior. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”

“We couldn't be happier with Katie's care for our dog, Beans! We usually have a regular sitter, but when she became unavailable last minute, we were hesitant to try someone new. After meeting Katie at the meet and greet, we immediately felt at ease. She was incredibly responsive, caring, and made sure to send plenty of photos and videos, which was such a comfort while we were away. It was clear that Beans had the best time, and we knew she was in great hands. We highly recommend Katie and would definitely book with her again!”

“Kerry is clearly a true dog lover. She took such excellent care of our senior girl Winnie while we were out of town! Kerry gave Winnie meds, eye drops, carried Winnie up and down her stairs (not an easy feat, Winnie weighs 45lbs!), and gave her so much love and affection. She sent us photos and detailed updates several times a day. We will be planning all of our vacations around when Kerry is available from now on so we know Winnie will be in good hands when we’re out of town!”

“Nelitza has done a wonderful job again! She watched our pup Finn for 12 days and always sent us updates. We have been working on helping Finn to gain weight because he is a picky eater and she helped us with that process! She definitely went above and beyond and we are extremely grateful! We would highly recommend having your dog stay with her while you are away!”

“My very first time utilizing Rover service providers. I’m so thrilled and pleased with the care that Christine provided. Our initial meet & great definitely eased my anxiety and Marlee took to her right away. Christine provided updates and photos during Marlee’s stay. I could see from the pics that Marlee was enjoying her time and blended well with the other dogs present. Definitely plan to board w/ Christine again. Thanks for taking good care of my fur baby and easing her separation anxiety.”

“Anna is amazing!! She was so good with our pretty anxious pup and sent us a lot of pictures throughout the weekend — we were always at ease knowing that Ellie was comfortable and having a great time. Anna’s two dogs are also so sweet, and we loved that Ellie had companions all weekend. If you live in DC, definitely worth driving out to Anna’s place for your pup to escape the city for a bit and hang out with this wonderful sitter!!”
