1. Whitney S.
“I knew my dog would be safe with a wide variety of rover sitters- but for me it wasn’t just about him being safe but loved and understood (he is a very sensitive guy.) At the meet and greet I could feel the care a warmth from Whitney and her family members. She had patience, love and care for him which meant the world to me! Will definitely be a repeat client :)”
2. Sarah C.
“Sarah is the BEST! We contact her FIRST whenever we have a need for a sitter. She's great with our little guy and her dogs are very sweet too! 100% recommend without reservations.”
3. Elisabeth K.
“I can't recommend Elisabeth highly enough! She took such wonderful care of our dog, Ollie, and it was clear from the start how much love and attention she gave him. Every day, she sent multiple high-quality photos and detailed updates that showed just how happy and comfortable he was in her care. She went above and beyond by dressing the dogs in warm outfits and taking them on engaging walks, keeping Ollie active and entertained. Not only did she keep him well-exercised, but she also worked on teaching him commands! It is obvious how much she cares about providing a safe, loving, and enriching environment for the dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us while we were away for the holidays. Thank you for watching Ollie!”
4. Vicky P.
“After our meet & greet, Shorty was so happy to go back to Vicky & Bobby's, he couldn't wait to get out of the car. They have a great house & awesome back yard perfect for dogs. Their dogs Magic & Brooklyn were great with Shorty, & he sometimes has problems with new dogs. Vicky sent me great pics every & really put my mind at ease, seeing Shorty livin the doggy life. Vicky even brought Shorty to work with her at the pet hospital where she works & I know he loved that. Travis, Bobby's brother was also really great & Shorty warmed up to him right away. Shorty is used to sleeping on the bed & they allowed that, and also figured out something yummy for him to eat when he wouldn't. I highly endorse Vicky & Bobby, & Shorty's looking forward to his next vacay!”
5. Kelly D.
“Coconut's stay at Kelly's was fabulous. She took her out on an adventure, let her sleep on her bed, and overall showed a lot of empathy and understanding for pets. Her place is clean and very dog friendly. We would absolutely book with Kelly again!”
6. Viva L.
“Viva is an amazing Dog Sitter. She took care of a relatively elderly dog with lots of medication’s beautifully with excellent communication and I plan to work with her again many thanks.”
7. Aaron C.
“Aaron has watched my pup Sesame a few times this month. She always comes back very happy and tired! Aaron takes really great care of your pet. We are so grateful for him!”
8. Alma D.
“Alma took such good care of our pup while we were away for the weekend! He got lots of exercise and had so much fun playing with Birdie. Alma had a great setup at home and her communication was top notch.”
9. Ruby C.
“Ruby did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my anxious pets when I was away! She walked my great big, but very timid mastiff slowly and reassuringly each day and was able to coax my very nervous cat from under my bed (unheard of!) to play for a few minutes of play each day. She has a great and loving presence! Your pet will be in good hands with Ruby. Jen G”
10. Emma F.
“Emma was so amazing with our beagle, Tulip! She felt right at home from the minute we walked through the door. Emma made sure to send lots of updates. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
11. Elizabeth S.
“Elizabeth is awesome! We left our chihuahua with her for about 2 weeks while we were out of town, and we felt so comfortable knowing our little baby was in such a loving home, with someone who adores dogs as much as Elizabeth does! She sent us pictures, videos, and sweet little updates everyday, and we even had the opportunity to FaceTime with our little angel 🐾 We forgot to pack our dog’s winter coat, and it got quite cold, but Elizabeth had an extra coat that she bundled her in to make sure she was safe and warm on their walks through Evergreen. Also, our little pup gets nervous when we leave her and sometimes won’t eat because of it, but Elizabeth HAND FED her! And then she ate her whole dinner like that. Can you believe that? If that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about how much Elizabeth cares, I don’t know what will. One more way that Elizabeth went above and beyond that really meant the world to us, was how flexible she was with scheduling. We had some unexpected very-last-minute changes to our trip, but Elizabeth was extremely accommodating, kind, and patient. She really had our back. Elizabeth is such a good person, and you can tell that she really cares about you, as well as your dog. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and above-and-beyond to take care of your beloved dog, look no further! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Elizabeth!”
12. Rose F.
“Rose was amazing! We feel so fortunate to have come across Rose on Rover. We immediately felt comfortable entrusting her with our Maggie. Rose kept us up to date with cute photos and messages throughout Maggie’s stay. She handled Maggie and all her issues with ease and a smile. She even won our stubborn Maggie’s affectation which is high praise from Maggie! I would 100% use Rose’s service again and recommend her to everyone.”
13. Rebecca N.
“Rebecca is awesome! Our (extra large) dog spent a whole week in her cute cottage and had a great time. Lots of beach walks and snuggles. He was so happy and worn out when we picked him up. Communication was great. Would definitely recommend!”
14. Silvia C.
“I have used Silvia over the past 3 years for dog walks and dog sitting. She does a fantastic job and really cared about my dogs. She gets them out for big long walks and does a great job with one of our dogs who can be a bit reactive. Silvia has taken care of our house and our dogs and is reliable and does a great job communicating. I give her my highest recommendation!”
15. Holly D.
“Meeko had an absolute blast at Holly’s house!! Him and Leo got along so well and he got plenty of exercise running around- he was one exhausted pup when I picked him up. We will definitely use Holly again for future boarding needs!”
16. Kathleen K.
“Bernie had a fantastic time staying with Kathleen (and Porter!). He was taken on daily adventures and even got to go swimming several times over his stay! Kathleen was great at communicating the entire time and sent some great photos! We will definitely rebook with Kathleen in the future!”
17. Yuki (Xue) Y.
“Yuki was so great with our dog, Sadie! Her apartment is perfectly set up to welcome a dog and had toys at the ready. She kept Sadie entertained while we discussed her routine and needs. We felt very relieved to have found Yuki for Sadie's overnight care and we got some happy pictures of her while we were away. Yuki was very communicative and we appreciated her flexibility on timing of the drop offs and pick up. We look forward to having Yuki care for Sadie again. Thank you!”
18. Anne B.
“Great stay for Bennett. Anne and her sweet dogs were very welcoming. Her set-up with a fenced-in backyard is perfect. The photos and updates she sent let me see how my pooch was settling in comfortably. An excellent experience for both for me and for my dog.”
19. Stephen M.
“Stephen was great and Clover loved her stay! He was super flexible on timing and the whole process was so easy. Clover seemed like she had a great time and he gave us some updates during the stay. Hopefully we meet again in Portland!”
20. Alexander S.
“Alexander was so great to our older dog and treated her with a lot of kindness and care. It was obvious to me that Alexander knows what he is doing and he really likes the dogs he takes care of.”
