3. Dominique O.
“Hi! I first met Dominique in the outdoor dog play area of our building because our dogs started to play together and they looked and acted a lot alike. Love them together! We've gotten to know each other better since our dogs love being together and I have seen her dog sitting for so many people in our building and our neighborhood and so it was an easy choice to ask her to watch my baby Charlie (sweetest cutest, my sweet boy) while I was away for several days. She asked me detailed questions about him and his routine, sent me tons of pictures and videos, updated me with fun things he was doing... It was amazing to know my baby was being taken care of and safe and happy, having fun so I could focus on what I needed to do while I was away. She obviously loves dogs because she adores her dog and he is the sweetest dog ever, super laid back, and everyone around knows she is great with dogs, responsible, and professional too. I only trust my family to watch my baby so I was nervous at first but he was so happy. :) Your baby will be in good hands with her. So grateful, thank you Dominique!”
4. Adam S.
“Adam is a fantastic pet sitter! As a fellow cat owner himself he really understands cats mannerisms and needs. He’s very communicative with updates and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend booking Adam!”
5. Emma R.
“Emma is hands down one of the most trustworthy and reliable sitters I have. My Barklee is difficult and can be unfriendly but he immediately took a liking to her. I’ve used Emma for the past 5 years and continue to use her when I need help. She is responsive, she takes care of my pets like they are my own, sending me constant updates and overall just eases my mind knowing that my dogs are always in good hands. Thank you for everything you do! Barklee and Oakley are so thankful to have you here to help when their family is gone.”
6. Dara F.
“My first time using rover and Dara did not disappoint! I was trying to find boarding for my strong walking Lab. Ive had problems in the past boarding with kennel cough and paying excessive boarding fees. Dara was able to come by my parent’s house twice a day to feed and walk my dog Layla. Along with take pictures and the route walked provided via the app. I was thoroughly satisfied with this service while I was out of town. I was able to leave town with peace of mind that my pet was taken care of and would recommend Dara as a pet sitter and walker.”
7. Morgan R.
“Thank you so much! I’d love to have you guys walk him again next week if you’re available. I’ll do another booking request.”
8. Mariana D.
“I found Mariana to be a very responsible person who truly enjoys caring for pets! She is very caring and loves playing with our 1 year-old goldendoodle. I would highly recommend her for pet sitting. She does a great job and your pets will love her too!”
9. Luisa V.
“Luisa was AMAZING. I have a reactive australian shepherd and got a killer migraine today. I dont have a regular dog walker but thought id test out Rover after success on overnight boarding trips with her. Luisa was so kind and gentle to my pup even when she kept barking at her upon arrival. Her update pictures calmed me so much and she truly walked her all over! They went to Rose Canyon and around the parks near my apartment. Thank you Luisa!!!!”
10. Luciana S.
“Luciana is so dependable and contentious. When she says she'll be there, she is there, I never have to worry and can count on her to fill in on puppy care when we need the extra support. So grateful for Luciana.”
11. Ray C.
“Ray did an amazing job with our very high energy puppy! Would definitely recommend.”
12. Lisa T.
“Lisa has become one of dog’s favorite people! She always takes the best care of him on their walks. She is super nice and reliable! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet-sitter!”
13. Antonet P.
“Antonet is the type of person that truly loves animals. She’s the perfect fit & actually cares, she goes above & beyond with everything she does, but especially loves pets. She literally has a tattoo of her dog, if that doesn’t signify how much she cares about dogs, I don’t know what does. Trust me on this, no one is going to do a better job showing love, care and empathy as a dog-sitter than her. I’d bet her doing this isn’t even a money thing, just that she loves pets and wants to keep them safe and give them the best vacation of their lives. Unbiased opinion, just being real and know her. I took the time to write this because it’s true and if you care about your pet like I do, this kind of stuff matters so felt it was right to advocate to help provide clarity. Thank you! :)”
14. Greta Z.
“Greta's been a trusted pet caregiver/house sitter for about 10 years now. Whenever planning a vacation, we know we can trust on Greta to lock up the house, feed the cats, clean out their litter box and she often tidies up for us!”
15. Savannah T.
“Reliable and great communication”
16. Lunna P.
“Lunna took care of my three cats for a week last summer, and she did a superb job. She kept in touch with me, sent pictures and her gentle and kind hearted energy was perfect for all. I hired her sight unseen from a community email group and knew when I met her that she would be trustable. At the time there was an ant problem in my home and she dealt with this as well. When I returned, the cats were happy and the area clean. Very pleased with her service!”
17. Caitlin B.
“Caitlin is a reliable, dog loving, trust worth dog sitter!! She is professional and my dog loved her! I would ask Caitlin to watch my dog any time!!!”
18. Katie S.
“Katie loves animals, especially dogs! She’s very caring and attentive. She currently is caring for a new puppy at home, and trying to integrate, puppy with current dog living in home. Loves to play and walk dogs.”
19. Zachary Z.
“Zach is a great option for your pup to find a fun and comfortable home away from home. As he already has a dog, Zach has all the essentials to give you peace of mind that your dog is being well cared for! Also, Zach's dog Archie loves to play and will give your dog a great workout as well!”
