“Robert and Brian, again, were wonderful with Nada. We feel quite comfortable leaving her with them and will absolutely leave her with them again. Thank you both ❤️”
5. Kit Jon S.
“Kit took great care of our dog Oskar! I especially appreciated Kit’s updates while we were away, and it was our first time boarding Oskar at Kit’s place. I felt at ease, and Oskar was the happiest doggie when we picked him up after 2 weeks at Kit’s. Definitely recommend boarding your pup with Kit.”
6. Rachel S.
“Rachel made it easy to feel comfortable leaving our dog with her for a 5 day stay. She updated us with photos, and he came home happy and healthy. I like that he got to stay in a family environment with a dog friend. Very easy and efficient pick-up. Thank you!”

“Best pet sitter in the East Bay, Philly was walked and well-taken care of, updates were amazing and adorable, Kelly even gave me her harness and included dried sweet potato treat sticks for Philly, 10/10 recommend. Thank you Kelly!”
8. Lauren S.
“Lauren was great! Jetson didn’t even want to leave. :)”
9. Amanda A.
“Very kind! I chose cat boarding since I was moving and I didn’t want my boys to get out. When I went to drop them off, I was given all the time I needed to say bye to my babies.”
10. Karen M.
“We have a big rescue dog, Lupin, who is nervous around new people and leash reactive/frustrated because he wants to play with every dog he sees, and Karen was fantastic with him. It was very clear at our meet and greet at the park that she knew how to deal with such issues, and knew a lot about dogs and their behavoir. We did a one night trial run to get lupin used to them for longer boarding and they were very kind to him - we have already booked 2 more trips. At our meet and greet, her lovely pup was a marvelous calming influence on our 2 yr old.”
11. Nicole R.
“Nicole was fantastic! She provides a warm and loving environment, and my dog really enjoys her company. She also sent regular updates and photos, which I appreciated.”
12. Alma Luana C.
“Alma and her husband were great with our dog Ram! They quickly responded to a request to book after our other dog sitter canceled which was greatly appreciated. They sent us a few photos every day, including of him on walks and at the park!”
13. Jennifer L.
“Jennifer was so great with Archie! He was well looked out for and I received a video and picture update whenever they went out. I have booked with them twice now 👍🏾”
14. Laura & Patrick F.
“When dropping off my dog my immediate impression of the host Family and home dissipated all concerns for my dog who has attachment issues because of abandonment as a puppy, and who has never been boarded. I knew he would be well taken care of. Laura and Patrick are like the neighbors you wish you had. They sent me photos of the progression from sad dog to part of the Family. When I picked him up he was excited to see me, but actually turned to the host to say an emotional good bye. Thank you! I recommend this host and will definitely trust them with my pet again in the future. I am very grateful”
15. Lee J.
“Great communication and flexibility. Thanks for taking great care of Mia. I will be sure to reach out next time she needs a sitter. Thanks Jaime”
16. Drew John Russell B.
“Drew was great to work with and took good care of our lab, Ceci. He provided frequent pictures, videos and updates and was flexible and easy to work with. He took her on lots of walks. I would recommend!”
17. Sophia N.
“Sophia is a wonderful sitter. She goes out of her way to make our dog feel comfortable in her home and get plenty of exercise outside. She sends us pictures during the stay and we really appreciate her warm and considerate care.”
18. Christjane V.
“Christjane did a great job! My anxious dog had the time of his life! He got lots of big walks and was gifted a handmade bandana that she crafted herself. They followed instructions perfectly and created a wonderful environment for Nico. We will be returning!”
19. Mary C.
“Mary is absolutely incredible. Our dog, Finn, is a quirky senior who is often slow to trust strangers - within 24 hours of being with Mary, he was asking her for pets and cuddles! That tells you all you need to know. She was extremely communicative, sent us lots of cute pictures and overall left us so at ease knowing our little guy was cared for. Can’t recommend her enough!”
20. Danielle M.
“Danielle was awesome! I would highly recommend. This was ours and Chili’s first Rover experience and it went exceptionally well. He loved Danielle and her dogs. He got comfortable very quickly and seemed so happy on hikes with the other dogs. We got tons of updates and photos of chili at doggy camp. Danielle is so experienced and even had recommendations for us on how to train his reactivity.”
