“Gabby is so sweet and took such good care of Penny! Loved the photos/videos of her walks. We picked up a very happy dog and would definitely use Gabby again.”
2. Joanna M.
“Joanna is the sweetest soul. I am so glad we found her here! She is communicative, our pups love her, and she keeps us informed while we are away by sending photos.”
3. Brian S.
“He took excellent care of our dog, Banjo. Brian was super communicative, always replying quickly to any questions or updates we had. He made sure Banjo got plenty of exercise, and we loved receiving photos—really reassured us that he was in great hands. When we picked Banjo up, he was happily tired out, which is always a sign of a fun time! Brian was kind, professional, and loves dogs. We would recommend him to anyone and would definitely book with him again if we're ever in the area. Thanks again, Brian!”
4. Colette S.
About: I have owned cats most of my life and volunteered at an animal shelter throughout high school! Currently I own two duck girlies who are my world. I am widely experienced with dog and cat sitting, frequently sitting for friends, family, and co-workers. I work from home, so I am widely available to care for your pets! I am able to work on weekdays and weekends for as short or as long as you need! I have a fenced yard for your pets to play in safely! I work from home so pets will have lots of fun and supervision.
5. Amber D.
“Amber is truly the best sitter I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Mochi always had a great time at her place. She even took Mochi to see the cherry blossoms. We highly recommend Amber to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
6. Brittany & Christian H.
“Brittany has been an absolute lifesaver when it comes to caring for our little guy. She is incredibly responsible, always punctual, and clearly loves animals. We've never had to worry about our pet's well-being while under her care. She's attentive, patient, and goes above and beyond to ensure Monte is happy and healthy. We highly recommend Brittany to anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate pet caregiver!”
7. Jennifer M.
“Jennifer is so lovely and made me feel very comfortable leaving my little shy pup with her! She sent me so many photos and updates and her dog, Sawyer, is so sweet as well. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter!”
8. Joseph L.
“Cooper had a great time and was exhausted when he came home. Joseph has a nice environment for dogs in the city with a fenced yard. There were other dogs so they had plenty of playtime!”
9. Owen B.
“Owen is the best! I had never used Rover before and I was nervous about it, especially because I have a husky puppy. But Owen was great with my dog, walked her and played with her the entire weekend and sent me regular pictures and updates, which I definitely appreciated. He has a huge yard and he stays with the dogs all day. He even sleeps in they same room with them so they feel secure (which is a plus for huskies, who need people around often). Will definitely use Owen again!”
10. Svet L.
“Svetlana was the most incredible dog sitter for my sweet pup:) she was prompt at responding the entire stay & was able to agree to watch Toby with short notice. She kept me updating with sweet photos, and was even able to accommodate an additional day at the last minute. I returned from a weekend away to a very happy, (& clean!) pup. I could tell her & her boyfriend were very caring and attentive with him. I will definitely be booking with them the next time I need a sitter! Highly recommend.”
11. Hannah W.
“Hannah is fantastic!!! Our dog, Winnie, has stayed with Hannah and her precious dog, Bubbles, several times for long overnight stays as well as drop in visits. Winnie is always super happy to see them both! Hannah is a fantastic caregiver and takes amazing care of Winnie! We are so grateful for her!!!”
12. mary s.
“Mary is a true dog whisperer! She’s great with both big and small breeds. Mary is extremely responsible, responsive to communication and reliable. I’d trust Mary with my fur baby any day.”
13. Rocco C.
“Rocco is a very smart and responsible person. He has had dogs in his life since he was born. He has always treated them calmly, gently and warmly. He seems to understand animals and finds joy when he’s around any dog or cat. He went through training at the Humane Society to be an animal volunteer when he was 14. He did that purely on his own to gain experience and to learn how he could help others. He truly loves animals and loves taking care of them. I would trust him to take good care of my dogs anytime.”
14. Santa V.
“I can’t imagine better care for your pup than Santa and her family provided while we were out of town for a long weekend. Communication was excellent and we got so many updates with videos and photos, we were totally assured he was in the best hands and it allowed us to relax even more on our vacay. They really treated our pup like part of their family and it was really obvious he enjoyed himself thoroughly.”
15. Alexandra & Billy B.
“Our fur babies stayed with Alexandra and Billy during our vacation in Santa Barbara. They were very accommodating during our time there. We were able to pick our pups, spend time with them and drop them off again. Our pups were happy and well taken care of. We will definitely contact them again on future visits to the area.”
16. Ryan K.
“Ryan is an attentive and knowledgeable caregiver of our puppy, Gio. We love having Ryan watch - be it for a day or an extended period of time. Gio loves Ryan and the other “friends” he gets to play with at Ryan’s home.”
17. Tina T.
“Tina was very attentive and caring with my senior dog. My dog has medication needs and food issues and she took care of everything. My dog doesn't usually like other dogs, but she got along well with Tina's dog! She was in contact daily with pictures and updates, and when my dog had an issue she noticed right away and contacted us so we could discuss it. Thanks Tina!”
18. James T.
“We are so happy we selected James to watch our dog. James is a kind and gentle man. Bailey was calm and relaxed when we collected her. James kept us updated and provided pictures. His updates put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands. We will definitely look him up again.”
19. Jessica A.
“We have had Jessica watch our pups Koda 3x now and Koda absolutely loves going there! Jessica does an amazing job taking care of her, and sends updates throughout the stay. We are so thankful we found her from Rover & plan to book with her anytime we go out of town!”
