“Dee had a WONDERFUL time! Lajetta has a beautiful home environment, and our pup felt comfortable there immediately on our first meeting. Lajetta sent many photos, and plenty of assurance Dee was safe and having a nice time. She even came home smelling better than we dropped her off!”

“Sandra is amazing. I have a nervous pup who totally accepted Sandra right at first meet. It was great to hear she opened up to her because she normally doesn’t do too well with new humans. Thank you Sandra !”

“Katherine took excellent care of my aging dog, and provided plenty of pictures and updates. She was very kind and responded quickly. Looking forward to booking again!”

“I left Oscar with Vanessa for a few days and he couldn't have been happier when I picked him up. He clearly received a lot of care and attention and even got a trip to the beach. Vanessa was really communicative and flexible when the dates of my work trip changed fairly last minute. She offered a pre-meet but given we were returning from out of state the night before, it wasn't possible—either way, I appreciated the offer. I tend to avoid using new sitters given Oscar usually stays with friends or a sitter he's known for years but I'm really happy to add Vanessa to that small group. Can't say enough good things.”

“Paul and Arnell were the sweetest with my Bandit. Sent lots of pictures and are very responsive at communicating. Nice meet n greet and easy drop off/pickup. Bandit was definitely spoiled with these two!”

“My dog is definitely a little nervous Nelly, however, Heather handled him so well! I couldn’t be more happy with the service she provided! Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”

“Taylor and Liv were phenomenal sitters. They were great communicators and took great care of our pup for the weekend while providing consistent updates(with pics)! We were very happy with the support of girl recieved and will absolutely be utilizing their services again!”

“Evita is a great pet sitter! She is very responsive, flexible, and proactive in letting you know your pet is being well taken care of. I couldn’t recommend her more, and hope she is available the next time I need to go out of town!”

“Rachael and Alex took such great care of our dog Bagel! Bagel had a huge smile on her face with each photo they took of her during the stay. They gave bagel lots of excerise and took her to the dog park everyday. Their two resident dogs are also so friendly and sweet. Communiction was fantastic. We will definitely be booking another rover stay with Rachael and Alex again!”

“Lonnie was awesome and I’d recommend him to anybody looking to leave their pet with someone. Before we met, I wasn’t sure how I felt about letting our dog stay with somebody, just because we had just adopted him about a month ago and he was super energetic and could have potentially caused issues. Lonnie assured me he was up for it and I was right to put my trust in him. He communicated regularly and provided updates. Seamless experience, go with Lonnie if you need a dog sitter.”

“Brittany is simply the best! She was very caring of Buzz during his stay with her. I really appreciated Brittany's communicative style. I knew without a doubt Buzz was in caring and safe hands while I was away. Thank you Brittany!”

“I boarded my doggies for the first time and was nervous, but Kristopher made it so easy . He was so kind and made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs with him . Knowing my pets were safe and in good care made my trip a lot easier . I would definitely leave my dogs in his care again. Thank you Kristopher 🤗”

“Otis had another wonderful visit with Amber and her family. The moment we drove up to her home, Otis couldn’t wait to exit the car. He was thrilled to see Amber! We appreciate the exceptional care.”

“Our Lola is super timid around new people, but she was so at home with Erin and her family IMMEDIATELY. Kids, cats and all, I think our pup is happier at the sitters than at home!! It's all we could ask for and more, if I could give Erin and her family a ten, I'd give her a 20! Definitely going to be returning”

“Winston had a great time with Nadkatan. He came back looking happy and healthy. He got lots of walks, love, and playtime. We received daily updates and pictures. Will definitely book again:)”

“Karilla was extra flexible with drop off and pick up times! She sent us photos of Sandy everyday which we appreciated. She was also flexible and careful to keep our dog away from male dogs as she was on the tail end of her heat cycle. I would book again.”


“Rebecca is the only sitter I trust Stella with for an extended stay! She sent me frequent picture updates and I could tell she embraced Stella as part of her own pack, letting her sleep on the bed, giving her a take-home toy when she fell in love with a rubber chicken, even taking her to the Coast while I was away. So thankful we have Rebecca as Stella's sitter and boarder!”


“We are sure that Bodhi got pampered by Ron and he sure did have some withdrawal symptoms. LOL. Bodhi would certainly love to stay with Ron again. Thank you so much Ron!”

Zach took great care of my elderly dog while I was away. She has a fairly specific routine and a home-cooked diet, and he followed the detailed instructions carefully. I also had some cell phone issues during my trip, but he remained communicative and kept things running smoothly. My dog seemed very happy and comfortable when I picked her up, which is always the best sign. I appreciate the attention he gave to her special needs and look forward to Zach caring for her in the future.

Sheung was beyond exceptional! I will most definitely be leaning on her again for hep with my sweet dog. She took such good care of my 19 year old dog. She provided her with so much much tender care and attention. My dog usually goes on a hunger strike when I leave her, but she didn’t do that this time. I got lots of updates and pictures for the week that I was away and was able to enjoy every bit of my vacation knowing she was in such good hands.

Once again Elliott was wonderful! This was the longest I've ever been away from Cookie and he sent updates every few days and asked questions about some concerns with her behavior. I also forgot her collar so he coordinated with a friend to have it dropped off. I had a worry free vacation knowing Cookie was well cared for. Thanks again Elliott!

I couldn’t be happier with Kimo’s service. I was nervous at first to leave my dog, Moon for 4 weeks but Kimo was wonderful at addressing any issues that Moon has had. He always tries to find the best way to make Moon feel right at home and update me with lots of photos and videos of Moon when i’m away. Couldn’t recommend him enough!

I cannot recommend Jeremiah enough! He watched my labradoodle for five days, and I couldn't be happier with the care provided. My pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. A huge bonus was Jeremiah’s own dog—he is incredibly friendly and well-behaved, making him the perfect companion for my dog during the stay. I’ll definitely be booking with him again and highly recommend him.
