“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”


“Anna is absolutely our dream sitter for our very playful and energetic border collie, Atlas. She and her husband gave Atlas so much love and attention everyday. Anna voluntarily sent us many lovely photos and videos of our pup as well as detailed updates daily. They loved Atlas as if she was their own, and we could tell how happy Atlas was staying with them. We felt at ease every day knowing that Atlas was under the care of such a wonderful and caring couple. We believe Atlas was on her own vacation! Thank you again. Atlas cannot wait to see them again. 😄”


“Holly was wonderful! Milo had a great stay with Holly and her family, and loved the company of her adorable doodle River. She sent daily photos and was very easy to communicate with. I felt at ease knowing that Milo was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”


“Best dog sitter ever! My dog was well loved! She had 2 little girls to love her and 2 dog friends. I was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home!”


“We could not be more thankful for Jing and her family’s wonderful care of our pup! It was clear that Harper had a blast and was treated as a part of Jing’s family. While we were away, Jing’s intermittent photo updates with Harper let us know our puppy was enjoying her own vacation. Jing also went out of her way to help us coordinate pickup times when our travel plans changed. We hope Harper has a chance to stay with Jung again sometime in the future- we know she would love it.”


“We had an excellent experience with Pamela and Yocheved! Very kind people. It was also a plus that they have a fenced-in back yard. Their older lab, Jennifer, is the sweetest angel, too. We did a “play date” prior to our booking and our dogs got along great. We will definitely be rebooking again in the future!”


“Remi, Paige and Vijay were awesome hosts to Bailey. They allowed us to do a meet & greet prior to the stay date. They then reached out on the day of stay to get details about Bailey. They kept us posted on Bailey’s stay and with pictures. Would absolutely leave Bailey with them in the future. Thanks”


“Barb is fantastic! She went above and beyond for our Lizzie girl. She is dependable, warm and welcoming! You will never have to worry when your furry companion is in her hands!”


“Nigel had a great time with Judy on their overnight. Nigel was happy when he was dropped off and seemed to enjoy his visit. We enjoyed the photo and text updates. We are happy we found you! Thanks for taking good care of our baby!”


“Highly recommend! Sunisa was super accommodating and took great care of Koda. I received photos and updates daily, allowing me to have total peace of mind while away. Thank you!”



“Paul is just the best. Very communicative and makes pick up & drop off super easy. Love the frequent picture updates of our dog’s staycations. Gives us peace of mind that Thomas is getting constant care and attention when we’re out of town. Thankful to have found Paul on Rover and I know Thomas is, too! Highly recommend.”


“Tomoe was great! We left our Boston terrier with her and she took great care of him, giving him all the play time and cuddles. We felt extremely comfortable leaving him with Tomoe and would use her again!”

“My dog loved staying with Eddy! You can tell he really cares about your pet by going above and beyond to make sure they have a fantastic stay with him! Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking next time I have to go out of town without Brandy!”


“Luna really had a great week with Alyson! I highly recommend her. She sent is daily updates. She took special care of our cat. The transition back home has been amazing. Hoping she will be our cat sitter forever!”


“Mochi has been taken care of very well by Jieming and Lauren! They paid careful attention to Mochi’s habit and sent us a lot of good pictures. We would recommend them to other users!”


“She was great with my cat, usually Wonton hides under beds for a few days around new people. I got videos on the first night and throughout my trip of Wonton hanging out with her and her other cats. It made me feel so much better about boarding her”


“Our English springer spaniel felt right at home with Adriana and her family.She sent us photos and videos every day, so we knew she was well taken cared for and happy. When I picked her up, she showered me with love, and it was clear she had enjoyed her time with them. Will use her again.”


“Our Lab had such a great time with Kelly! She took great care of her and sent us daily sweet pictures in which we could see our happy dog playing or napping and obviously enjoying herself very much! Highly recommended!”


“Kaitlyn was so wonderful! She communicated regularly and was calm and understanding when Allie had a bout of stomach issues. Allie came home happy and tired, the perfect combination!”
