Xander took very good care of Lowell. We have no complaints. We will be happy to use his service again.

Our pup and her belongings came home in a slightly worse state than we dropped them off in (smelled, scrape on her leg, plastic bowls chewed by another dog etc). It was a five day stay and we understand things happened, but when combined with the lack of communication we were left less than impressed. Nothing overly concerning, but as far as communication goes, we received one photo and zero other messages throughout the stay. When we dropped her off it was unclear if Xander was listening to our instructions and when we picked her up it was unclear if he followed them. A little more reassurance would have gone a long way in letting us know she was in good hands.

Xander took great care of Bandit. There were quite a few other dogs and that was a bit intimidating to my rescue dog but Xander was very understanding with him.

Vet contact information is important, as well as a list of any ailments the dog has. Any dietary specifications and a list of allergies would also be helpful.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
