I’m always skeptical with new dog sitters but Jackie was great. Her house appeared very clean. She kept me updated throughout their stay as requested. Will definitely book with her in the future.

You can always tell when someone is an animal lover and Monica hung the moon. It is wonderful to walk into a laid back absolutely charming place that also caters to dogs and kids! Am spreading the word in Hampton about her. I don't know many people but my cousin is a native and has already decided she will book with Monica. I do not know how anyone could ask for a better "sitter"

With a sudden family emergency we were worried leaving our pets. Rover is a great app with great people, we loved the picture updates from Kim and how wonderful she was! Understanding, passionate, and professional. We will be contacting Kim again in the future if we ever need another sitter!

David did so great with my Great Pyrenees, Charlie! He was also very patient with me as this was my first time using the app and I accidentally scheduled the wrong day. Upon meeting Charlie was very comfortable with him and he was excited to go hang with David. Thank you SO much for taking care of our huge furry friend. I highly recommend having David watch your dog!

Heather was awesome. Although my buddy was a bit anxious without me, Heather was able to keep her occupied so when she came home she just plopped right down in her favorite spot and went to sleep.

Cassandra was awesome! She kept us posted with our 2 senior dogs and sent plenty of photos and videos. Senior dogs need a little extra attention and can happily report that they did fine and even got too comfortable and wanted to stay with her...will definitely use her again in the future! Thanks!

Nancy was simply wonderful! Her home is perfect for dogs, with a “they can sleep anywhere” policy suitable for any couch potato like ours! She has her own well behaved dogs who were friendly and very undisturbed by the arrival of our guy. He was happy as a clam with her and I am rebooking him immediately for our next trip.

Cheyanne did a great job of taking care of Betty White while we were on vacation! She sent pictures on a daily basis to show us how she was doing and also gave her a couple of baths while she was there because she got muddy in the backyard. She was also very kind and bought her a new dog bed because the one that we sent got very muddy one day.

Magie took such good care of our girl, Oreo, while we were on vacation. She was attentive the whole time and kept us updated with pictures, which I really appreciated. It was obvious Oreo felt more than comfortable with her and her family she looked right at home. I’m genuinely grateful for the way they treated her. We’ll definitely book with Magie again.

Abbi and her husband (and their adorable daughter) took our request last minute for boarding and our dogs had a great time! She was prompt to respond when I had questions and was very flexible on pickup/drop off times. I would definitely use her services again! 10/10

Ashley was an awesome dog sitter. This was our first experience using Rover and she made it so easy for us. We had a work trip planned and our normal list of sitters were not available. Ashley kept us updated with pictures of Snoop and even took him a bath when he went for a swim. Would definitely recommend Ashley!!!!
