Bertie, Liss and family are absolutely wonderful! It was the first time leaving my puppy overnight and they were kind, responsive and helpful. They took great care of my pup, treated her like their own, and sent lots of updates. I can’t recommend them enough and will absolutely book with them again!

We were super concerned about needing to leave our beagle hound mix with a pet sitter for the first time, since he suffers from separation anxiety and has some eccentricities. Something about Mark & DJ's post was reassuring, and this was confirmed when we took our dog for a pre-visit. During our weekend away, Mark & DJ send lots of photos and updates, going the extra mile to help our pup feel at home and gain confidence. We are so grateful to Mark & DJ, and we'll definitely be reaching out to them again when our dog needs a sitter.

Katina did a wonderful job taking care of our pup. We felt at ease with her photo and message updates. Pizza looked like he had a blast with her doggos and we hope that they’ll get to hang again in the future!

Our little dog has anxiety, but he felt very at home with Paula and was well taken care of! When we picked him up it seemed like he wanted to stay!

Heather is super responsive and takes your pet’s needs seriously. My pup is sweet but has some anxiety issues—Heather thoughtfully supported all of his needs while providing lots of pictures and updates to ease my mind while he was under her care. Highly recommended… will definitely be booking again!

This was a wonderful experience for both our dog and us. Jesse and Emily (and their awesome kids) made his stay fun and comfortable. They allowed him to be a pup while also reinforcing the appropriate expectations of the home and being a good dog. They sent photos daily and were awesome communicators. We will definitely use them again.

Hillary is a great sitter. A dog lover, she was so engaged and involved with our 2 Goldens during the week they stayed with her and her family. She sent multiple pictures, videos, and texts every day. The dogs were in great shape when we picked them up and it was clear that that they had been very well cared for. It is so comforting to know that your beloved pets are in good hands and Hillary exudes that type of confidence in her care. We are empty nesters and could tell from the videos and pics that the dogs loved playing with her children. I highly recommend Hillary!

I highly recommend Aly B. She quickly answered all of my questions, both before and during my dog’s stay, sent daily photos, and kept my high energy dog safe and happy. A few days after my dog’s stay, Sunshine saw Aly and was so excited to see her, confirming that Aly provided a welcoming environment for my dog during her stay. I will definitely use Aly again to care for my fur baby.

Jenny was great! This was our first time leaving our dog at someone else’s house for the weekend and I couldn’t be happier than having him stay with Jenny! She was very on top of responding to messages and sent plenty of pictures while we were away. Our dog has not yet learned to be off leash, so she had a great idea to let him roam around and play in the closed off barn with the other dogs. He came super happy and worn out. I highly recommend Jenny!

This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our shy mini doxie! Danielle was incredibly responsive and sent us daily updates with photos that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Despite booking last minute, she was flexible and accommodating with our schedule. She handled our pup’s shy nature with patience and care, and we could tell our dog felt comfortable with her. We highly recommend Danielle’s services and will definitely book with her again!

Loving and attentive, prioritize safety and comfort of all dogs We give Charissa and her husband Alex 5 stars and are thankful for their attentiveness to our dog’s individual needs. When our normal dog care option was unavailable for our 5 day vacation, we wanted to try Rover if we could find a suitable stay. Charissa and Alex took 2 hours with us for our initial meet and greet. We were very impressed with their commitment to understanding our dog and her needs. They listened closely. We arranged 5 days/4 nights. Unfortunately Juno struggled with socializing with other dogs and adapting in a new environment. Charissa took the appropriate action of keeping our dog separate from the other dogs. They gave her TLC, and took extra steps to ensure what comfort they could provide her, adding space between dogs and fencing. With Charissa and Alex you can know that your dog will be lovingly tended even if your dog struggles to adapt to a new situation.

Mary watched my dog Rizzo for a week and she was absolutely wonderful. Rizzo was right at home with her family and I could immediately tell from her updates that he was happy and comfortable. Her children were also wonderful with Rizzo. I highly recommend Mary for anyone looking for dog sitting! Your pet will be loved and cared for just like Rizzo.
