“Kim is great. She did an amazing job making Jax feel at home, as well as giving me the peace of mind knowing he was being well taken care of. She sent plenty of updates, pictures, and videos throughout his stay. I could tell he was having fun. She even shared some useful training tips that I plan to use. Jax is definitely looking forward to seeing her again.”
“Flynn loved his stay at Angela's! He had lots of attention and had fun playing with her dogs. We received plenty of pictures and updates and knew he was in good hands while we were away. She is very personable and clearly loves animals!”
“Tabitha and her family did great job with our family member. Meeting her for 1st time and leaving her there for over week. It was good to hear her kids saying does she have to go when I pick her up. To me that sound like they took care of her like their own pet. We definitely be using her and family again on our next trips”
“Chisato treated Casper and Gracie like they were members of her own family. She constantly kept us in the loop of their daily goings on with many pictures and movies! Casper and Gracie were having such a good time, I don't think they wanted to come home.😊”
“Kelli is a devoted dog lover who took excellent care of my 11 year old frenchy for a couple of nights. Some medication was required and Stevie sleeps in bed with me. Her medication was no issue for Kelli and she allowed Stevie to sleep with her which was so appreciated. Kelli works from home which is a real benefit when caring for Stevie. We greatly appreciate Kelli and her efforts on behalf of Stevie. We are already booked for our next trip with Kelli 🐾🐾”
“Jacob the dog whisperer was ever so patient, kind, and knowledgeable with our senior dog. Can’t thank you enough for opening your home and heart to our feisty girl.”
“Mary and Norm were the absolute best dog sitters! We left our 12 year old Shihtzu with them and he was treated so well. We got daily updates and knew he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“DEE IS AN ANGEL! My mini poodle is an anxious/reactive dog so it’s hard to find people who are willing to watching him and understand his quirky behaviors. From the initial meet and greet, it was obvious how much Dee loves animals and dog sitting. I left my dog with her for 5 nights and couldn’t be happier with how comfortable he was with her. Dee provided multiple daily updates with pictures and videos, and she kept up with his 3 time a day feeding and his daily meds. It’s great to know that there is someone like Dee who will care for my baby like I would. Thank you so much!!!”
“Absolutely awesome! They obviously love animals. My girls had a wonderful time visiting Francine and Bob. This was the first time I left them at a sitter’s house. They sent photos of my girls having fun. That put my mind at ease. I definitely will use them again!”
“Stella is the best! We’ve had our dogs stay with her and they’ll be back! Very caring, professional setting, and she’s great at sending updates on how they’re doing :)”
“Our dogs loved staying here and spending time playing with the other dogs. We appreciated all the pictures we got and updates on our animals. Would definitely book again if we go on another trip.”
“I was so very happy that I selected Veronique to care for my pup during my long 12 day vacation. Veronique truly exceeded my expectations by caring for my puppy just like she was one of the family, by sending me photos and videos of their walks in the park and by the beach, and by calming her during rain storms. I feel that Veronique is a dog whisperer. She also bathed my dog and clipped her nails beautifully. Seeing the videos, I joyfully felt that my pup was having more fun than me. I highly recommend Veronique to sit for any type of dogs as she has years of experience, a high level of canine knowledge, and her house is warm and safe, and set up with a large fenced yard and secure features. I will be using her services again in the future.”
“SO WONDERFUL. Connie kept our Yorkie for the first time. She sent me lots of pictures and videos. I felt that she really tried to get to know Scouty and understand her behavior. Connie shows a real love for her guests and it was clear to me from Scout's behavior that she really bonded with Connie. Connie did an excellent job in my opinion and I will be very comfortable leaving Scouty with her again. I'm grateful to have found her!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Patricia. Sprocket stayed over for 4 days and everything was perfect. He was well looked after and we received updates throughout our vacation. If there were 6 stars, we would have given 6!”
“Jennifer and her family took good care of our little Jax. She sent pictures with updates during his stay. He seemed very happy and relaxed with them. We are glad we found someone who not only can take care of him but also cares about his well being.”
“First time Rover user, VERY satisfied customer! I found myself in a pickle with a new puppy and no one to watch her while I worked (and husband got called out of town unexpectedly). Kim was nothing short of AMAZING. She put my mind at ease the minute I arrived at her house— I can’t say enough good things about her and her husband, they are true “dog people”! She kept me updated daily, messages, videos and texts; I had no doubt she knew how to give my pup the attention, security and comfort she needed, she settled right in! Kim is by far the absolute best and I’ll forever be grateful to her for taking such good care of my girl. I’ve already recommended her to friends!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I have to say I am very thankful for John & Louis. My dog struggles with separation anxiety from me and she was comfortable with them and did very well. I received daily updates with photos and highly recommend John and Louis. I will definitely be using them again.”
“I felt so comfortable with Wendy and though our vacation was really long, I knew our puppy was in good hands. I got frequent updates, photos and videos, and he was so happy to be there! We picked him up tired and healthy. I would not hesitate to ask Wendy again!”
Old Mill Creek dog parents share their Rover experiences
Dorota was such a wonderful sitter for our puppy! She was very communicative providing regular updates and photos, and I know our pup was well loved and taken care of. This was our first time leaving her for a few days and I was confident the entire time she was in great hands with Dorota!
Lorena is absolutely WONDERFUL! She will be my first choice from now on. I could tell she really loved my girl Fiona while I was away and did everything to make Fiona happy. Fiona came home happy, healthy, safe, and with a new friend. I can't thank you enough!
I left my little Boston Terrier / Beagle mix dog with Gwen during a week-long vacation. She has two large dogs at home, and my elderly and cranky Lucy has a history of being randomly reactive with other dogs. But during our meet and greet, it was clear that Gwen and Jake have an excellent handle on how to manage dog behavior and introducing dogs to one another. After the visit, I felt confident in leaving Lucy at their home for a week. During my vacation, I received many pictures, videos and updates. She described how they were gradually introducing the dogs to one another, always under supervised conditions. I was able to see how the dogs were interacting with videos and pictures, and it was clear that Lucy became fast friends with Earl and Saber. I think that this is due to the careful and attentive process that Gwen and Jake followed in order to make Lucy comfortable in their home and with their dogs. In addition, Gwen kept me informed about her eating habits and antics. I would definitely leave Lucy in her care again!
