“This was my first time leaving my 3 month old puppy and I was so nervous. However, Kathe made me feel comfortable right away. She had such a warm energy from the moment I met her and she was immediately sweet with my little Hercules! While I was away, she gave me daily updates and pictures on how he was doing which made it so much easier for me. I would book her again and again if I could! Kathe is absolutely wonderful and so good with the pups. Hercules came back so happy, healthy, and well taken care of😊”
“As always, Lissette and her family were fantastic! Rambo always has a great time when he stays with her and always seems to be relaxed and refreshed when we pick him up like he has been on vacation too.”
“Another lovely stay for our girl Mocha at Victoria's! We loved getting all the photos and videos of Mocha out with other pups. She looked so so happy in each pic, gives us great peace knowing she is also having fun and being taken care of well during our trips. Thank you, Victoria!!”
“Angela did a wonderful job caring for my senior pup! She is kind and attentive and made sure that Elsie had a great stay. I would book with her again when the opportunity presents!”
“Our pups had a great stay with Mike and his family! Communication was excellent, we received regular updates & photos, and Mike was sure to reach out if anything came up. We would not hesitate to have our girls stay with wonderful Mike again and are grateful for his care!”
“Chanel was an amazing host for our senior Shih Tsu, Kody. She made Kody feel right at home. She’s a natural caregiver, but also followed all the instructions and care tips we provided (morning meds, feeding, walks, etc.). Chanel was super communicative and made sure that we were updated during Kody’s stay. What a relief for us! (Thank you, Chanel. We’ll be back).”
“"I cannot recommend Patrick enough as a dog sitter. From the moment we confirmed our reservation with him, I knew we were in good hands. As a first-time user of Rover, I had my fair share of concerns, but Patrick quickly alleviated them with his professionalism and attentiveness. While my son was primarily looking after our dog during our vacation, he had to leave for a work trip before our return. Patrick's location was a blessing in disguise, as it was incredibly convenient for my son to drop off our beloved nine-year-old Portuguese water dog, Kismet, on his way to the airport. Upon our arrival back home, we were able to pick up Kismet directly on our route home with the help of an Uber, thanks to Patrick's thoughtful planning. Throughout the entire process, Patrick was accommodating, reassuring, and truly went above and beyond to ensure Kismet's well-being and our peace of mind. It was evident that Kismet was well cared for and content in Patrick's care. Without a doubt, I will not hesitate to entrust Patrick with Kismet's care again in the future. His dedication, reliability, and genuine love for animals make him a standout dog sitter, and I am grateful to have found such a trustworthy and caring individual to look after our furry family member. Thank you, Patric, for your exceptional service and for providing us with peace of mind during our time away."”
“Kyra had the best time with Aurora and her sweet pup Madi! I was in Europe for a week and felt so at ease with constant updates and photos while I was away! I can’t recommend Aurora enough and feel confident in using her services again next time I go away!”
“10/10 perfect! The care that Charlie received was awesome. He looked so happy in all the photos! Honestly I feel like he is sad I took him away from his new doggie and human friends! Definitely recommend!”
“Hunter had a great overnight stay with John. John took him on several walks and made sure he was fed and comfortable. Our dog sometimes gets anxious and John knew how to calm him. John gave us regular updates and photos. We appreciated the reporting for Hunter's very first overnight with him. TY John!”
“We are so grateful to March and his family for taking great care of Billie while we were away. March was extremely communicative and it was very clear from his messages and photos that Billie was very well cared for and happy. We’ve already booked him for our next trip!”
“My dog has an absolute blast every time with Zwany and Leandro! She got a bath this time and came back smelling amazing. I can tell my dog is perfectly at home at their house, and she gets so excited to come back each time. Zwany also does an amazing job of sending pictures and updates, so I know my dog is doing well.”
“Rachel was great! It was Harley’s first time staying with a new sitter and he can be unpredictable, but Rachel was reassuring and positive about watching Harley and that helped ease my anxiety! She was communicative, sent pictures and did a great job with giving Harley his meds that he is sometimes fussy about. Very happy to have a new reliable dog sitter to add to my rotation!”
“This was my first time using Rover to find a sitter for my dog, and while I was a bit nervous going into it, Cheuck made me feel so at ease leaving my dog with him. He sent updates - with photos - multiple times a day, was very quick to respond to my messages, and ask questions as he needed to as well. He made sure my girl was well-taken care of while we were away (lots of playtime, potty breaks, walks, and comfy beds/spots for her to lounge all day) and even offered to drop her off to our home, as we had a late flight back, which was hugely appreciated. I highly recommend Cheuck for anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”
“Amy was THE BEST!!! Super warm and friendly, very responsive and communicative. She made it all so easy and she clearly took such good care of our mini golden doodle Rory. And Rory also loved playing with her dog Bumi. She also we great about sending photos of their walks and hikes and adventures. We are so grateful for Amy and her help!!!”
“Rachel was great! She kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog can be quite anxious, but Rachel was incredibly patient and encouraging. It was clear from how relaxed and happy our pup looked that she felt safe and comfortable in her care. Highly recommend booking with Rachel!”
“Jordan was absolutely fantastic! She treated Addie like she was her own! We were so happy that we booked our next boarding the same day we picked Addie up from this one!”
“Nate provided daily pictures and updates, asked all the right questions and listened as I shared my doggo’s triggers/stressors. I felt super comfortable with Sammy being there and was able to enjoy my trip without worrying. Highly recommend”

Katherine & her husband took wonderful care of my Ruby. It is clear that they enjoy dogs, & took a great deal of interest in getting to know mine, so she would be comfortable & happy throughout her stay. I feel very fortunate to have found them. Thank you so much!!! 😊
Olivia was awesome. Ray was so happy to be around her and he slept like a baby. She not just walked him around, they went for short hikes which Ray loves. Ray is growing older and now getting a personality and hence he is getting a bit finicky with his food and doesn’t eat at all places. This wasn’t a bit of a problem with her and he visibly looked happy once he was back. Will definitely book her again as needed.
