16. Jonathan C.
“Jonathan just spent the weekend with our dog, Bogart. We came home to a tidy house and a very happy pup. We got frequent updates with many great pictures and plan to use Jonathan again when we go on an extended trip this Fall. Bogart is a very big dog and has never been left with anyone except family. Jonathan has a very calm and relaxed vibe and Bogart seemed immediately comfortable with him at their first meeting and was very excited when he returned for the weekend. It’s very nice to have found someone we are comfortable with to take care of our dog and our home.”
17. Jordan C.
“Jordan was so phenomenal with our two girls! One of them is very shy and weary of new people. In a few days time, Jordan had won her over with patience and care. Jordan is respectful, attentive, communicative, and very professional. Would highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs. Thank you for everything, Jordan :)”
18. Brian W.
“Brian was great as a sitter for my pups and my home! I have two pups - one who can struggle with reactivity and another who can be stubborn in her houndy ways - and they were very comfortable with him from their first meeting on! They have never had anyone care for them in the house overnight that they did not already know, so I was nervous, but he did well assessing and responding to their vibes and needs and was excellent in his communication with me. I highly recommend Brian for your dog-walking or house-sitting needs!”
19. Steffan S.
“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with Steffan! This was my first experience using Rover, and he was very understanding about my nerves leaving my *darling dog* with someone new, and was flexible about us needing to leave early in the morning before he would get to the house—this meant the pooch was a little nervous about him coming in alone after only one meet and greet, but he was patient with her being standoffish, and sent me frequent updates to let me know that she was coming around and eventually becoming fast friends. :) I will certainly be in touch again the next time I need help for Jelly in a pinch! Thank you, Steffan!”
20. Victor S.
“Victor did great sitting for Ellie, kept her company all day, listened to her needs, gave her food and her medicine. Would absolutely book him again in the future!”
