This was my first time using rover and let me tell you: I had a very positive experience 🫶 Both Josh and his wife watched Bruno for a week and treated Bruno like part of their family. Initially, I was worried about leaving Bruno with another family but on day one after getting updates and photos, I knew he was in the right hands. Bruno even seemed a little sad to be leaving his new friends 🥺 They communicated with me all week and most days I got photos and videos🤍 I truly appreciated them giving Bruno all the love and attention he normally receives at home with us. Bruno was even allowed to sleep with them and hang out on the couch! And I know he loved their backyard and their dog. Thank you thank you to them for keeping my Bruno safe and loved! 🤞🤍 Would book again and would recommend to anyone! 🫂

Nicole was incredible! This was the first time our Oakley would be away from home so we wanted to make sure we picked the right sitter. Nicole met us ahead of time for a quick meet and greet and Oakley loved her! She kept us up-to-date while we were gone and was so easy to communicate with. Highly recommend booking with Nicole!

Winston was very well cared for over his extended stay with Janet. He seems to have enjoyed the company of the other dogs under her care during his 16 days with her. She is very good with all the dogs and I would use her again for short or long stays. Very reliable and trustworthy.

Matt was awesome with our dog Delilah! He was responsive and accommodating throughout the whole stay. Delilah made some new friends while she was there and clearly had an amazing time being that she's been exhausted after coming home, which is a great sign for us. We highly recommend booking with Matt!

Chante's boarding service was exceptional. She is a great communicator which made for a very smooth meet & greet, drop-off and pick-up. She provided daily photos and videos of my dog in and out of the house. Upon picking up my Staffy, I realized how better behaved and obedient he was to commands (specially sit and stay). I contribute this to Chante's knowledge and experience with dogs and other pets. I am very pleased with my overall experience and would definitely book with Chante in the future.

Fist time using Rover, and was not sure about leaving Jack for a long weekend. Joshua and Jenna were great, from initial contact through meet and greet and the actual stay this weekend. Thank you for watching Jack…. He seems to have had a great time at the Blue Merle meetup!! And thank you for the pictures.

I was very lucky to find Sofia to watch my puppy Ruby. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Ruby was being taken care of quite well and that they had a lot of fun together. Normally when Ruby is with someone else in a strange environment, she doesn't eat normally, but judging by what was left over, she pretty much ate normally. I will definately ask Sofia to watch Ruby the next time I go on vacation and need a dog sitter.
