“Shannon was a great sitter for Victor! She kept me posted about how he was doing every two days. We will definitely choose Shannon for next sitting. Thanks!”
“If you’re looking for a dog sitter who goes above and beyond, Keri is it. She watched my pup recently and absolutely knocked it out of the park. When my flight got canceled last minute, Keri didn’t even blink—she just handled it. She made an extra trip to get food for my dog without me even asking, and stayed in close contact the entire time. I got photos and videos almost every day (sometimes multiple times), and I never once had to wonder how things were going. No other sitter I’ve used has ever been this proactive, thoughtful, and communicative. Keri is the kind of sitter you hope you’ll find but rarely do. She’s a total gem.”
“Kelly did an excellent job taking care of our Figgus! She was so easy to work with and flexible with our unique situation. He looked so happy in every picture she sent of him. I could tell he was being well taken care of. We would highly recommend her services!”
“Book with Tina & Bob! This was our first time using rover for our senior cockapoo. She stayed multiple nights with Tina & Bob and they treated her like their own. Their house was beautiful and Grace had the perfect setup. They took such care to the smallest details and kept us informed. They are genuine, good people that are a hidden gem on this app. They are true animal lovers that will love your dog like family. We can’t wait to go back. Thanks Tina & Bob!!”
“Gabrielle took great care of my furbabies. 3 can be a handful but she handled them like a pro. Shared videos occasionally and in those they were tails wagging and running around very comfortably. When I came to pick them up they were as happy as can be, just like I left them! Thank you for taking care of them like your own 🩷”
“Ally was amazing! Let us see the space, verified all instructions, gave our pup his anxiety meds. He took to her right away and she was extremely accommodating. If we are back in St Louis we will definitely book with her again!”
“I just love how Ebony cared for Samier. She communicated daily with words and pictures of how Samier was doing. When Samier returned home nothing was out of the ordinary he continued his routine right away. We cant wait to use Ebony again in two weeks.”
“Excellent service! Lauren made time for 2 brief meetings with my dog before boarding with her. This was needed and appreciated. She was very communicative throughout the entire process including pics and updates after he was in her home. Would definitely book with her again in the future.”
“Our Coco seemed to do really well with Riley & Mike! She looked well taken care of & was in a happy mood when we picked her up. We look forward to using them again!”
“I was a nervous mom when it comes to where my fur baby was going to stay while I went on vacation and I am so thankful that I ran into Laura on the rover.com site she was so very nice and warm and always smiling made things very easy and she sent me pictures and videos of my dog so that I could still feel close and be part of his life.. my dog loved her so much that I'm not so sure he wanted to come home with me lol”
“Mary was wonderful with our dog. She did all the right things and we picked up a very happy pet from her after the stay. We will definitely book again.”
“Rachael was absolutely wonderful! It was my first time using Rover or having a stranger watch my dog. She watched Ari for me for 5 nights on very short notice. My boy has some separation anxiety and gets stressed being away from me but he seemed completely relaxed with Rachael. She responded to me quickly and shared photos every day. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands with Rachael and I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely ask her to watch Ari again in the future.”
“We loved Ellie and her family. Great communication through the time. Scotcharoo came back happy and healthy. Thank you so much for the great care. Would definitely use services again soon”
