“Sara was amazing! Super friendly, great to work with, and our doggie was so well taken care of! Frequent updates with photos. Excellent experience. Highly recommend!!! She (and her adorable kids) are now our go-to dog sitters! 😁”
“Victoria and Rishi are incredible! Leon took a liking to them immediately and felt like staying with them was his second home away! Leon was always happy when I picked him up and actually didn’t want to leave 😂. I know that Leon is safe and happy in their hands. If you are type of person that likes to be communicated with frequently about your pup, you can text them and they will give you an update.”
“Paige gets a 10 out of 5 stars from us! We were nervous about leaving our spunky puppy with anyone during our trip, and Paige was extraordinary. She and Decky were loving and took such great care of Maisy. Her care gave us the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our travels. She sent us so many photos and went above and beyond what we asked carewise. THANK YOU!!”
“Kasey was an excellent choice for watching our puppy, Rocky. She provided regular updates throughout our trip, which gave us peace of mind. When we returned, Rock was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Kasey for pet sitting!”
“Love Fay, what a wonderful dog sitter, I’d trust Fay with my kids if I had any small children anymore. Fay was very caring, sent me photos around the clock of my dog’s activities which included long walks, napping, making friends with Fay’s dog. It was nice my dog Bao had a friend for a while in her care. I’d rebook with Fay in a heartbeat. Wonderful person.”
“Boji had yet another great time. He's super happy and ready to sleep the night away! Definitely book with him! They are the best out there and the most flexible!!”
“Cheryl watched my 13+ year old tri-ped for 2 weeks. He was well taken care of, she recognized when his remaining back leg was too tired for a 2nd walk of the day. Took care with him during thunderstorms. My dog and hers got along well. I absolutely would and will book with her again.”
“They were so great with our girl Macey and super friendly! They were also great at sending pictures throughout Macey’s stay. Will definitely be booking with them in the future.”
“Joni was wonderful with Violet. It was the first time she had ever stayed anywhere besides Home and I felt very comfortable leaving her there. You can definitely tell that Joni‘s heart is in this and that she loves the pooches thank you Joni. I will definitely use her again.”
“Hayley has watched my puppers before and Iroh always comes back happy and suckered out from playing with her two dogs. He loves it there. Hayley is also so kind, working with me on a new pickup time when my original pickup time proved difficult. Thanks for the flexibility, Hayley!”
“Our energetic girl had a great 3-night stay with Cari. She was well cared for and enjoyed herself tremendously! Cari sent updates/pictures several times a day, which was reassuring, especially since it was our first time using Rover. We recommend Cari highly!”
“My pup stayed with Julia and working with her was great! She was easy to work with and gave consistent updates with pictures every day. I would definitely recommend Julia for anyone needing dog boarding.”
“Jason and Kristen’s family always take such good care of our dog. They are great with communication with daily pics and updates!! They give him lots of care and attention.”
“Alice is an amazing sitter. She took such great care of my dog while I was away. My dog has a lot of allergies and skin issues and ended up needing to see the vet and have a minor surgery. Alice made sure she was well taken care of and got her to all her appointments and gave her the appropriate after care. She is the best pet sitter I've ever used and I would use her again.”
“I had a great experience with Bre as my dog sitter. When I picked up Nola, she was happy to see me, but what really stood out was that Nola wanted to go back into Bre’s house—showing just how comfortable and cared for she felt. Bre is incredibly friendly and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. I felt confident leaving Nola in her care, and I would definitely recommend her to other pet owners!”
“This was my first time using Rover and it was anxiety filled because my dog is a senior, 16 years old, and deaf and blind. He had also never been boarded. Brianna was lovely and made me feel comfortable leaving Jake with her and her family.”
“Ellen was absolutely amazing and so flexible when I asked to change my pickup time. She’s so sweet and was intentional to send me photos of my pups throughout their stay!!”
