1. Sara H.
“Sara was fantastic! We had never used Rover before and were a little hesitant, but Sara was absolutely wonderful the whole way through. She was highly communicative and our 2 pups absolutely loved her. Her background as a vet tech is also a huge plus if you have a pup with medical needs. She also kept our home spotless throughout her stay and even left us the sweetest wedding gift upon our return. We will absolutely be asking Sara to house and pet sit for us in the future.”
2. Ralph R.
“Ralph was nothing less than superb. He only house sat for us one day and he left an everlasting impression. He's the standard we look for in a sitter and will definitely look forward to calling him again. Don't think twice about booking him, he's very professional and will help you feel at ease. Thanks again Ralph!”
3. Sabrina M.
“Sabrina is the best rover we have ever head. She sent such great updates on the adventures they went on and always kept us in the loop. With an anxious and reactive dog it can always be stressful leaving her, but with Sabrina she was so relaxed that we could enjoy our trip as well. You can tell that Sabrina has a true love for dogs and a real understanding of their behaviors. We feel so lucky to have found her!”

6. Thomas H.
“First time using a sitter and it went fantastic! My dog is a senior rescue dog and has never been alone overnight. It was a big step leaving him in the care of another. Not only was Thomas H. a hit with the pooch, my apartment looked better when I came home than the day I left. Thomas even fixed a stubborn vertical blind!”

11. Dori C.
“Fantastic! I had a last minute babysitting emergency because my dog sitter fell back home fell through. I had to bring my two senior special needs pugs on my weekend away to visit my son. We had important dinner and I absolutely couldn’t leave my pugs alone in a new place. I reached out the morning of and gave her my story. She said that normally she doesn’t book last minute but would make an exception in our case. She saved the day and the dinner! She was a calming influence and my dogs loved her! If I lived in San Diego, I’d be a regular!”
12. Kaitie C.

“Regan is AWESOME!! She's reliable, trustworthy, and detailed oriented. She sends text updates with pictures, which puts my mind at ease. My pets love her and I can tell she treats them like her own. I'm so grateful that I found a responsible person to take care of my fur babies whenever I go out of town. She also walks my pup when I can't get home in time, she's easy to coordinate with and very accommodating to my ever changing schedule. Thanks Regan!”
14. Debbie D.
“Debbie D did a great job watching my cat & dog (my babies). My dog needs meds 3 times a day & my cat hates leaving her home so to have someone that I trusted come in my home & stay with them meant a lot to us. I did not worry about them while on vacation she sent me pictures & updated me daily.”
15. Karla N.
“Karla is so kind and patient! She made me feel super comfortable with Bentley being a little reactive with other doggy friends which provided me extra reassurance. She was friendly and worked with Bentley throughout the stay. She also was super accommodating for a last minute request I had due to flight delays. Absolutely, would use her services again.”

18. Gina V.
“Gina was great! She took care of our cat, Maui, for a week. She followed the written directions, never hesitated contacting us when she had a question and even sent a couple of pictures of Maui. Knowing that Gina was reliable gave us the reassurance we needed so that we could relax and enjoy our vacation. Thanks again Gina!”
19. Brendon R.
“Brendon and Adriana were wonderful. I've had mixed results on Rover. This was the best experience I've had. They spent time meeting my dog with me prior to the booking. They followed the directions we discussed very well. They sent pictures to me multiple times per day. They even rolled with an issue with my house alarm like it was nothing and it wasn't even their fault. They're just very easy-going nice people that truly care about animals. My dog has very sensitive skin and when Adriana notice some hot spots, she texted me right away and asked what to do. She was worried about my dog like it was her dog. What more could you ask for? I'm so glad I found them. I hope to use them more in the future. THANK YOU!”
20. Pamela M.
“Pamela is a true animal lover! She loves all animals, from cats and dogs to parrots and donkeys! She is very responsible and will always make the safety and comfort of your furry friend a priority. She has looked after my cat several times, and she cared for and kept our childhood cat comfortable at the end of her life. She also has years of experience looking after dogs of various breeds - all of them became her fast friends! Pamela is the first person I would call with any animal needs.”
