1. Aya H.

“Amazing dog sitting, recommend to all especially if you have a golden retriever. Will hire again”


2. Chelsea G.
“Chelsea watched out cat, Duane, for years, anytime we went out of town. She treated Duane with so much care — we sometimes think he preferred to be with Chelsea over us! She’s great with animals and we’d be happy to have her watch Duane again if we find ourselves lucky to be living in the same city again in the future.”


3. Zariyah S.

“Second time booking with Zariyah, she is the best, fast respond, good service, and passionate about dogs, my dog seems very satisfied with his stay lol.”


4. Erika F.

“This was our first time using boarding services through Rover. Thanks to Erika, it was a positive one! She responded promptly to our meet & greet request and we had good dialogue, putting us at ease. We received photo updates via texts. Our dog Koda adjusted well considering she is a homebody with “retired parents” as her playmates! We would absolutely book with Erika again. Definitely recommend! : ]”


5. Robert W.

“Robert did great with my boys. He gave me frequent updates and I had genuine peace of mind leaving them with him. I absolutely recommend him!”


6. Reginay F.

“Reginay was awesome! Our original rover cancelled last minute and Reginay was able to board nala during our 11 day cruise. She was extremely responsive and caring and was understanding when we arrived late. We will definitely be working with her again.”


7. Kesson & Hiromi Y.

“We just picked up our dog from Hiromi and Kesson. This is my first time using Rover and I’m glad that I found them! They’re really the best dog sitters. They treat your dog like their own and constantly send you pictures/videos to keep you posted. I was worried about leaving our dog with strangers but after seeing how happy he is with Hiromi and Kesson, my worries were gone instantly. Thank you so much for taking care of our baby boy. We will definitely book with them again!”


8. Stanley & Christine Y.

“I had a smooth booking with Christine and Stanley. My old lady Sadie had a great time and got along well with their dog Axel. I appreciate how responsive they were and will plan to book with them again in the future.”


9. Jennifer M.

“Jennifer was awesome as always! I trust my pet baby with her. This is his 3rd visit with her. This was his second overnight stay, this stay was for two days. My boy is blind, takes insulin shots twice a day, a very old senior. I always worry about him when I’m away, but with Jennifer I can relax and enjoy my vacation. Thank you Jennifer. 🥰”


10. Lizzy T.


“Amazing sitter! Felt so much better knowing my girl was in caring, competent hands. Could not recommend enough. Was updated throughout her stay with pictures and text messages. Maggie was treated like a queen.”


11. Lisa H.

“Lisa is wonderful! We had to go out of town last minute and she was very accommodating. Lisa is friendly, attentive and took the time to get to know our pup. Her house was clean and pet friendly. Our dog is usually very anxious when we leave her, but she warmed up to Lisa immediately. She was very communicative and sent videos/photos to let us know our baby was safe and happy. I highly recommend Lisa and am happy to have found a sitter our dog loves!”


12. Anthony M.

“Anthony has been an amazing dog sitter for us—this is our second time booking with him, and we couldn’t be happier! He’s super friendly, reliable, and our dog loves him. Highly recommend!”


13. Achara J.

“Achara was wonderful! Very punctual and easy to talk to. My cat Otis was safe, loved, and comfortable during his stay at Achara’s. I would highly recommend Achara and would greatly book her again for Otis when needed.”


14. Jose M.

“Jose really helped us out with a last minute trip request and took great care of Harvey. He was also good about communicating with us promptly.”


15. Deborah S.

“1. Deborah, she was outstanding and above and beyond with my dog Charlie. She was loving, set boundaries for him, took him on numerous walks and dog park outings, gave him a bath, and she kept us informed throughout the visit, with his fun videos and pictures. 2. I recommend Deborah for your dog respite time, she loves dogs, keeps them happy and entertained, and is very easy and kind to work with!!”




16. Justin C.

“Justin did an amazing job caring for our 2 dogs! It was our first time leaving them anywhere so we were super nervous. He had great communication every single day with photos and updates on behavior, eating habits, and energy levels. He made sure we were comfortable and our dogs were happy. It was clear that he loves animals and would HIGHLY recommend him. I thought it was way better than having them in a dog hotel since he was with them all day and night to give them all the attention they needed!”


17. Laura A.

“Fabulous fit for Gizmo’s and my needs! Laura took the time to ensure my dog is compatible with her pack. Gizmo has some separation anxiety and having other dogs around him while she is away from the home works great, and Laura is home much of the time😊 Gizmo is allowed to make himself comfortable on her furniture (like he does in his own home) as well as have his crate space if he feels he needs it. I am so grateful for Laura’s accommodations and will definitely use her services often.”


18. Michelle R.
“Having always had a dog in the family since I was born, I saw Michelle always give attention and care to our pets my entire life. Being a good pet lover is about empathy, and Michelle always has empathy for pets and especially dogs. More than just giving attention, but paying attention is key to animal care and Michelle has always had that and I could not imagine Michelle giving anything but 100% focus to the dogs in her care.”


19. Denise W.

“Denise took wonderful care of my dog while we were away. She communicated clearly throughout the process, sent regular updates and pictures to let us know how she was doing, and my pup came home happy. A great experience!”


20. April M.

“April was amazing went above and beyond for my pup. Being new to the city wasn’t sure what accommodations I would be able to find. However, she put my concerns to ease and has earned a repeat customer since my dog really loved her time with her. Always kept a line of communication and sent photos with updates.”
