Olivia is great! This was the first time she watched our over energetic dog and she did a great job. She kept us updated and our dog had lots of fun. Highly recommend her services and hope to use her again.

This was my first time using Rover. Our stay with Adriene was wonderful. Sheldon has only stayed overnight with family or a close friend previously. Adrienne’s home was so inviting and her 2 dogs were so sweet. Sheldon is a picky eater and she sat on the floor with him to help get him to eat. He had a great stay. :)

I had a great experience with Shanisa as our pet sitter on Rover! She took care of my three dogs for seven days in her home, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. From the moment I dropped them off, it was clear Shanisa was a true animal lover. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured while I was away.

Totiyana provided such a loving experience for our fur baby, Emmie. She is not used to being around other dogs especially big dogs but Totiyana help her get comfy and before you knew it Emmie was settled. We appreciate Totiyana’s flexibility and being able to take our last minute request! Such a blessing! We appreciate her care so much we booked two weekends in a row! Looking forward for future bookings for boarding our needs.

this was the first time we left our dog for more than a week and our first time using Rover.com. We couldn't be happier with Andres and his care for our dog. We received multiple pictures while we were away which helped us feel comfortable and confident that our dog was enjoying his stay. Thanks, Andres! We will definitely contact you again.

The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!

This is my first time using Rover and Cecilia has made my experience so enjoyable. I did book last minute, but Cecilia communicated quickly and it was easy to check in. Whenever I had questions, she was there to answer them and provided daily updates. Her home was warm and welcoming for my pet, with plenty of space for my dog to run around and interact with Cecilia's family. Cecilia puts her heart into what she does! I highly recommend you choose Cecilia when you are looking around!

They sent us many pictures and shared the fun they had. We will definitely seek her out in the future. Thanks for taking such good care of our boy.

My furbaby loves going to Jade’s. Jade keeps me updated throughout the stay and returns Keisha to me happy, healthy and relaxed. Jade always accepts my last minute requests with a willingness to accommodate my unpredictable schedule. Jade is my go-to sitter every time.

Elisabeth is simply the Best! The care and support she has provided for Pluto is something I will be always grateful for. Pluto is an anxious kid and also suffering from epilepsy, so he needs to take a lot of medication and Elisabeth made sure that he receives his medication on time and also went above and beyond to keep him happy. I received regular updates, and could really see Pluto having so much fun, regularly going out to different stores, playing in backyard or spending time with her wonderful family. I would highly recommend her to everyone. 🙏 thank you again.
