1. Wei C.
“Wei is a fantastic sitter. She was very gentle and loving with our dog and sent us a picture from their walk together each day. We would gladly hire Wei again to sit our dogs.”
2. Jeff F.
“Levi had the best time! Jeff was so nice, took amazing care of our baby, he kept us posted sending pictures and was fast replying if I had any questions. Levi will be definitely staying with Jeff again!”
3. Rama & Brittney P.
“What an amazing experience! Brittney and Rama went out of their way to help Arlo feel right at home and part of their family! They sent updates via pics and videos multiple times a day and were very responsive. The cherry on top was the adorable video and report card summarizing Arlo’s stay 🥹 I trust them completely and highly recommend them. Arlo will def back next time we’re in need of a sitter!”
4. Carolyn & Christopher S.
“Amazing .. like the best dog camp. Our dog played and enjoyed his stay— the photos told us. This family has the best spot for an active dog to play!”
5. Jason H.
“Jason was fantastic! Our dog is older and takes some additional care, which he went above and beyond to provide. He made the experience easy, sent pictures and kept us up to date. It was the first time we didn’t leave her with a family member, but Jason made us feel like we did with the way he treated her. Great experience!”
6. Sydney M.
“Look no further. Sydney is truly a pet whisperer. Sydney has been our dog walker for 10 months. She takes the best care of our pups- they don’t want her to leave! She is trustworthy, respectful and responsible.”
7. Lauren H.
“Lauren is mind blowingly serious about nutrition for her own dogs and is very knowledgeable and unstinting in that area - she even makes their food for them herself. But better than that, she is loving, kind and perceptive about her dogs. She makes sure they get plenty of exercise and attention as well as aforesaid nutrition. I do not have a dog myself, but i do have a cat - Alexander - and Lauren is even affectionate and attentive with him! I unreservedly recommend her as a caregiver of anybody’s beloved pets.”
8. Zari M.
“Zari was super responsive and really helped out when I was in a pinch and needed Ollie looked after for a night! Would definitely use her again, she gave several updates and Ollie had a great time.”
9. Michelle D.
“Michelle was very welcoming- she made us and our little dog Gracie feel very comfortable. She was also very accommodating and responsive. And she sent updates and photos! We couldn’t ask for a better experience. We highly recommend Michelle!?”
10. David S.
“Very lovely couple! They kept in contact with me the entire time, including pictures. Made G feel right at home. I would definitely recommend them for any type of dog sitting or boarding!”
11. Isis M.
“So happy with Isis, Wrigley looked so happy in all the videos. She did the dog park regularly. They even attended a doggie birthday. Overall this has been a pleasant stay.”
12. Kristina L.
“Kristina is the Best! She took great care of Gia and sent me photos in videos while I was gone. It was the first time I ever left my dog with anyone and was quite nervous and she made me feel very comfortable and did a meet and greet first. She responded very quickly to any messages I sent her while away and was so flexible when my flight was delayed. Gia will be staying here again in another five weeks so happy to have found her!!”
13. Gris T.
“Fantastic service, it was easy to relax knowing Junie was in good hands. She got plenty of walks and socialization while staying with Gris. I got lots of updates and some fantastic photos of my dog during her stay. Highly recommend her services!”
14. Caroline H.
“We left River with Caroline while we were gone for a week and I have never felt such peace of mind leaving my dog. Caroline takes such good care of our dog - making sure she eats, gets her walks and is comfortable. We got multiple updates and photos throughout the day which was the best part ☺️ She was constantly sharing things River was doing throughout the week and made us feel so comfortable. I would recommend Caroline over and over again. If you are looking to leave your pup with someone you trust will take amazing care of them, choose her!”
15. Megan T.
“Megan is the absolute best dog walker! My dogs are always so excited to see her each time they go for a walk. She has really helped with one of my dogs anxiety as well. Could not recommend her any more, as she is quick to respond to any last minute requests.”
16. Lea R.
“Lea is great! She took tons of pictures of our pup during his stay and gave him plenty love and exercise. We will love to come back to her whenever we are in town :)”
17. Camille B.
“Camille is a responsible pet owner as well as pet caregiver. She cares for my pets when I am out of town and brings along her medical needs pet too. As a pet owner and caregiver, she prepares homemade dog food for mine and hers. She is great at daily pictures and updates, leaving me to worry less. I appreciate her attention to my pets needs and details. I appreciate her holistic knowledge for her pet, mine and all the research she does in advance. Long walks and time at the park with a lot of socialization is great. All my dogs love her playful nature and pure love/care of animals. My elder dog loves being held and cuddled by Camille.”
18. Bri M.
“Bri was amazing!! I have a nervous pup and she was comfortable right away with Bri. I received pictures and updates daily, and she was always quick to communicate. She made me feel at ease being away from my girl. I will absolutely will be booking with Bri again 💖”
19. Sandy J.
“Sandy was so responsive and attentive! I could tell right away that my dog felt comfortable and safe in her home. We were originally concerned about separation anxiety, but I could see that our little girl was so happy to play with Cooper! The two dogs got along great, and Sandy sent updates and pictures to let us know what our girl was up to. We won’t hesitate to use Sandy’s services again!”
20. Rachelle L.
“Our booking with Rachelle was the easiest process we’ve had out of all of our past dog sitting bookings on Rover over the last several years. Her communication was timely & friendly, she was flexible on timing, she has an house with a backyard, she’s comfortable walking large dogs, her dog was friendly and got along fine with our dogs (even though one of our dogs is older and can be a bit of a grumpy old lady sometimes), and she was great with our two Great Danes. Plus, our “puppy” is just over a year old and we have not yet had him fixed because the vet recommended waiting until he turns 2 years old to get him fixed — I was concerned when I first went to book a sitter and found that many of the local Rover sitters do not accept unaltered dogs. But Rachelle was fine with accepting our dogs. We would definitely book with Rachelle again.”
