5. Karin H.
“I can’t say enough about Grady’s awesome stay with Karin and her husband. Grady felt right at home and I got lots of updates which made us feel even more comfortable leaving her. In the past I had only left her with our friend before this so I was very nervous. It was a very positive experience and she was well taken care of. I will definitely use Karin again.”

7. Julia M.
“Julia was an amazing dog sitter! She is super fast at responding and also sends tons of photos and updates. Einstein normally takes time to warm up to strangers but he warmed up to her immediately at drop off. He is slightly a nervous and skittish dog and she ensured he was taken care of while I was out of town. So glad I booked with her!”
8. Julie U.
“Our 9 month old pup had a great stay with Julie! Julie was wonderful with her -- patient and kind and understanding of our pup's needs. Our dog loved playing in the backyard and snuggling in for the night. We enjoyed receiving photos and updates from Julie. Highly recommend!”
9. Robert A.
“My dog had a great time with Jen, Robert, and Marcelline. His daily pictures showed me he was so happy. He loves making doggy friends. They were very flexible and picked up and dropped off my dog and let me extend a day when I got stranded. I'm so glad I was able to board him in a safe and happy home.”
10. Alyson B.
“This was my first time using Rover and it was an amazing experience because of Aly. She communicated with us right from the start and set up a meet and greet where she asked questions about our puppy's routine, needs, and preferences. We were nervous immediately felt very comfortable leaving our brand new puppy with her. Aly sent daily updates and pictures throughout our vacation and we could tell our dog was comfortable and happy. Aly felt like an extension of the family right away and we I couldn't recommend her more. We will definitely look to have her watch our dog in the future.”

15. Eddy J.
“Eddy was amazing! He took care of my two dogs while I was away for four days. I have a very old 75 pound golden retriever who is unable to climb stairs due to arthritis. Eddy carried him up and down stairs to take him out for walks. He would send me updates with photos daily to let me know they were doing well. I cannot say enough about how kind he was with my dogs. I would highly recommend him.”
16. Adriana P.

17. Michael L.
“Michael took great care of my dog Hank while we were away for a week. He was flexible on pick-up/drop-off times, he was communicative, and he sent me a lot of pictures. His dog Stella is sweet and played very well with my dog. Between playtime with Stella and multiple walks, Hank came home nice and tired. Thank you, Michael!”
18. Pamela & Yocheved & Charles F.
“Pamela looked after Kira for five weeks. During those five weeks she was extremely communicative, and she let us know how Kira was doing and sent us many pictures. She made sure that there was nothing to worry about. We are glad to have had Pamela take care of Kira and will reach out to her again in the future. We highly recommend her for your pet sitting/boarding. Thanks so much, Pamela!”
19. Kim & Eric C.
“Kim and Eric provided a loving home for my Norwegian Elkhound Kaia while I was away last weekend. She had a great time romping with their dog and a golden retriever - they sent me lots of photos of all the fun she was having there, and I felt reassured by all of their texting while I was away. They definitely have a return customer!”
