“Ashley has been wonderful with Baxter. I have used her a couple of times now. The last time I dropped Baxter off, he didn't want to say goodbye to me. As much as it may have hurt my feelings, I know he was happy to stay with her. LOL”

“We have had Natalia sit out dogs before and will use her again. The dogs are well taken care of and seem happy being there. Natalia gives status and photos often, so we have no worry about the care they are getting. We really appreciate Natalia!”

“Hanah & Dabin took such great care of our rescue dog Lilo during her first 2-week boarding stay 🥹💕 Since she’s a rescue, she can be pretty fearful and shy in new environments, so we were honestly nervous leaving her for that long for the first time. They sent us lots of photo/video updates, were incredibly patient and warm with her, and made us feel so at ease the whole time. It was so comforting seeing Lilo slowly open up and enjoy herself 🐶 We’re super grateful for all the love and care they gave her, and we’d absolutely book with them again!! 💛”

“Very communicative and took great care of my dog. I'm very attentive to who I leave my dog with and Candi immediately presented herself as someone I could trust to look after her. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Oscar was an amazing, responsible dog sitter to my two dogs. We met prior to the dates so they would be more comfortable with him. During their stay with him, we were in constant contact, so I knew they were in good hands. He was sending videos, pics, and texts to let me know how they were doing. They had plenty of walks and play time. When I picked them up, Oscar described my dogs' personalities and behavior like he knew them for years. He was so attentive and caring to them. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter. I will definitely be reaching out to him the next time I need a sitter!”

“Great sitters! Very chill vibe and our cat mochi felt absolutely safe and loved by Bennie and Jenny ❤️ Our boy had a great social experience with the other kitties as well! We appreciated the frequent updates and photos, thank you so much!”

“Parisa is a wonderful, caring and loving pet-sitter that might even be a dog whisperer! She truly understands what your dog needs and how to gain their trust and love. Mochi, our 1 year old chihuahua mix loved Parisa from the first sight. We left her with Parisa for 7 days. Each day we would get photo and video updates with Mochi taking long walks, meeting new friends, chewing on her favorite treats. We never worried, knowing that Mochi is having time of her life and getting spoiled! Parisa is a true gem, I feel so lucky I have found her.”

“Olha spoils our Nagi more than we do at home! He had such a good time with her where he was properly mentally stimulated. There was a huge grin on his face when I picked him up.”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter, so we were a bit worried at first. However, she was incredibly kind and attentive, and took such great care of our dog. She made sure to keep up with walks, meals, and overall condition, and sent us regular updates and photos, which really put us at ease. Our dog looked very comfortable and stress-free the entire time. She is someone we can truly trust, and we highly recommend her!”

“Holly is amazing! She kept me updated with check ins and pictures throughout my pup’s stay with her! He had a blast! She is so kind and loving with your fur babies! I will definitely re-book soon! Do not hesitate, she’s great!”

“Bernard & Hung are awesome they took great care of our puppy princess while we were on vacation. I really can't think them enough, Lana had an excellent time 🙂”

“First time leaving our 5 month old Samoyed puppy with anyone. Patricia is super responsive and accommodating, and definitely knows what she is doing. Would highly recommend!”

“We’re very happy with Helen’s service. She is detail oriented. It was our dog’s first time away from home and Helen made the experience much easier. We recommend Helen’s service without any reservation.”

“Alison was an amazing sitter. She was super flexible with our need to adjust the date of our pick up and drop off. I got regular updates on our dog and it seemed like he had a great time.”

“1000% yes. Claudia’s house is Disneyland for dogs. Right up the street from the theme parks. They had the best layout for their doggy guests. Couches & beds & romping space… it’s like ymca camp for dogs. Avon had so much fun. We got tons of photos and videos throughout Avons 3 night stay. The other dogs are respectful and well behaved. Makes my heart melt - such an awesome & inspiring home.”

“Kathy was great. She has a nice home in a safe walkable neighborhood. She was flexible, responsive, and just very sweet and kind. She sent lots of updates on Morty and he was his usual happy self after his stay with her. Highly recommend and will repeat.”

“Our golden retriever Bella had a successful and wonderful 5-day stay with Rebecca! We received multiple updates daily from Rebecca that were greatly appreciated. Bella loves her visits here and gets lots of attention and playtime with other pups!”

Portola Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Joel and Jessica were great! Douglas was extremely happy with them and was clearly comfortable and content when we picked him up. Joel even took the time to meet us in person beforehand with his Dog before we left Douglas with them. They gave us updates and took the time to make sure our dog was happy in their home. We would use them again!

Alex, Jingying, and their lovely pup Delphy are amazing hosts. They really took care of Mayo when I was out of the country for 18 nights (!) and truly made it feel like I can trust them. They made Mayo feel at home and even took care of him when he had a minor stomach issue. I think Mayo also felt a special bond with Delphy and every time I saw the videos or pics that they sent, I had a feeling that Mayo had an amazing time with her and Alex and Jingying. They went above and beyond to reassure me and kept updating me throughout my trip to keep me calm. Would 1000% recommend and will try to set a playdate between Mayo and Delphy!!!

Eunice was absolutely amazing! She exceeded all of our expectations with her thorough communications and level of care provided to our beloved Corgi. Not only did she followed all the care instructions for our pup, she went the extra miles to make Muncie feel loved and spoiled - taking her on social outings and hikes to keep her entertained! She sent us daily photos and detailed updates, which gave us such peace of mind during those 7 nights we were away. Our dog felt right at home with Eunice. She is definitely our go-to sitter from now on! Thank you, Eunice, for taking such great care of Muncie!

Walter had a wonderful time at Rebecca's house. He was well taken care of and had all his needs met. Rebecca communicated with me on a regular basis and sent tons of pictures while I was away. Her house is clean and set up perfectly for any size dog. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing that Walter was in a safe and happy environment. He also had a great time with the other dogs.

I am truly in awe with the dedication, efforts, and attentiveness Beth and Sean exhibit. This was my first time leaving my puppy and I can confidently say that I did NOT worry about Delilah (my pup) a single moment that I was away. Sean and Beth are just phenomenal all the way around! Their consistent communication included pics and updates that really helped bring me peace of mind. They are super friendly and welcoming. They followed her routine to a T and ensured Delilah felt both comfy and safe was I was away. Saying goodbye to Sean and Beth at pick up was probably the hardest part about my trip for Delilah! She bonded so well with them so well and I can tell Delilah holds a special place in her heart for them. I will 1000% be a returning client!! From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much Sean and Beth!! It was a privilege to have you guys look over Delilah while I was away!

Carolyn and Brian took such great care of our Belgian Malinois, Kairo over the weekend, giving him plenty of attention, exercise, and love. It’s clear they really understand the needs and energy level of the breed. We got regular updates, which made us feel totally at ease while he was in their care. Brian dropped off a happy, well-cared-for dog. Highly recommend!

Elly took great care of my two dogs. My older dog Dobby is a senior with special needs, he has kidney disease so he has to pee a lot and his appetite is picky. He also whines a lot and gets confused sometimes so I was very concerned leaving him when I had to take a long trip. Elly’s home is calm and quiet which was great for him. She was able to let him out to pee more often (even when he woke up at 3 am!) and kept his belly band on to prevent accidents. He can be a grumpy old man and she won his trust after just a few days. He let her pick him up and snuggle him which he normally doesn’t do with strangers. I’m glad he got so much TLC while I was away. My other dog is Raisin and she is younger but is very skittish and scared. Elly gave her blankets to burrow under and let her hang out on the couch which is her favorite spot. She has a great enclosed neighborhood to walk them in which was away from street traffic which was great for my nervous girl. She sent me photos and even videos everyday and was very responsive to my texts. You can tell how much she loves caring for dogs and she spends a lot of time at home with them which is what I wanted in a sitter. I’m so glad I found such a caring sitter!

Ashley is exceptional ! Our girl nala was well taken care of and kept me updated throughout the days . We loved receiving pictures of her and she took her to the dog park ! I love that she is flexible something came up for us and she was able to extend one more day :)

Lily is absolute the best! I left my two pups with her for 4 days and three nights. My pups and I had been mauled by dogs recently so the three of us needed extra love and attention and Lily provided that for us. I never had to worry about how my dogs were doing and they quickly acclimated to being with her. I received frequent photo, video and text updates that were very much appreciated. I would never hesitate to leave my dogs with Lily again.
