1. Dana R.
“Dana was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and were nervous to leave our pup with someone new (he was previously not a fan of being boarded). However, from initial message I could tell Dana knew what he was doing. We did a meet and greet before our dog’s stay and Dana was very thorough with how he operates when he is taking care of a dog, which certainly made me feel comfortable. Dana is also super laid back and more than willing to accommodate our slight adjustments in our pick up time. Our dog looked very comfortable with Dana and when we went to pick him up our dog did not want to leave. We will definitely have our pup stay with Dana in the future!”
2. Alan & Ying C.
“Alan and Ying took wonderful care of Ripley during his four-night stay. They were very thoughtful in their approach to make him feel comfortable and at home. Alan and Ying provided a lot of communication, including some great videos. They were especially flexible about timing for pick-up which helped to ensure that my kids could see Ripley before they (the kids) went to bed when we got home from our trip. We really enjoyed working with Alan and Ying.”
3. Alyson B.
“This was my first time using Rover and it was an amazing experience because of Aly. She communicated with us right from the start and set up a meet and greet where she asked questions about our puppy's routine, needs, and preferences. We were nervous immediately felt very comfortable leaving our brand new puppy with her. Aly sent daily updates and pictures throughout our vacation and we could tell our dog was comfortable and happy. Aly felt like an extension of the family right away and we I couldn't recommend her more. We will definitely look to have her watch our dog in the future.”
4. Tyler S.
“Tyler was amazing with my Lobo and Tango! He was a great communicator and I was ever grateful for the flexibility as my travel plans change unexpectedly a few times while I was away. I could tell they were truly cared for and a spoiled just as much (if not more) than would have been with me! Highly recommend and will be trying Tyler again for my next dog care needs”
5. Adriana P.
“I felt so comfortable because Adriana is on time and took good care of my dog. She took my dog for walks often and provided everything he needed. I think she’s a really nice sitter.”
6. Steven R.
“We have a beloved rescue that struggles with anxiety. Steven had a really calm presence and seemed to really have a knack with dogs. Thanks Steven- you made the family gauntlet of events we had- way less stressful.”
7. Nalix T.
“Nalix was great with my boy Bentley, very understanding and a true dog person. I was provided pics, which I always appreciate and was glad to see my boy looked happy. My dog is a senior and Nalix was very patient and kind with him, I felt very assured while I was away for a couple of days.”
8. Jodi T.
“Jodi was great in helping us with Stewie! Her home was warming, she sent photos every day, and Stewie looked like he enjoyed his time! Thank you, Jodi!!”
9. Melissa P.
“Words can’t express how lucky I am to have found Melissa and her sidekick Simba. She exudes kindness and her love for animals. She will treat your pet like her own!! My Maizie jumps out of the car to see them, her faves!!!”
10. Gil O.
“Gil had great communication throughout the stay. Drop off and pickup were very smooth. We consistently received photos and believe our dog had a wonderful time! Thank you!”
11. Cora C.
“I was in a bit of a pickle and needed someone to take care of my fur baby with short notice. Cora was very quick to respond in my time of need. She was extremely communicative leading up to the stay and this continued while Knox was in her care. I received several pictures that perfectly illustrated how happy he was due to her great care. I would 100% use Cora again (hopefully with a little more of a heads up).”
12. Annie J.
“Annie and her lovely family were so great with our special needs, senior dog, Noli. We left Noli with Annie for a week and a half and they all took great care of her. She was in great spirits after her stay and clearly had a great time with Annie and family! I appreciated all of Annie’s communication and experience with senior dogs. I will definitely return to Annie next time I’m looking for a sitter for Noli!”
13. Lyv N.
“Scooby had a great stay with Lyv and Blueberry while I went leaf peeping. Lyv sent regular updates and I would definitely trust her with Scooby again if we are ever in the area. The neighborhood is also great for dogs, lots of green space and other dogs around.”
14. Nicole L.
“Nicole is the best. She provides consistent updates of the day and I really appreciate that! She is also really generous with the info she shares when it comes to caring for a dog. It’s so comforting to be able to depend on a sitter who truly cares ❤️ grateful to have connected with Nicole, and looking forward to booking with her again!”
15. Vanessa H.
“Charlie had a wonderful time with Vanessa and her dog, Happy! She was very responsive and sent updates. We’ll definitely have Charlie stay with her again!”
16. Maryanne O.
“Maryanne was very easy to work with, arranging the preliminary visit, and the drop-off and pickup. She sent me lots of pictures while I was away, and told me it took a couple of days for my dog to get used to my being gone, and then she was fine.”
17. Louisa R.
“Louisa is amazing! She made herself available for the last-minute reservation and the same-day dropoff. She was sending photos of Bruno, and I could tell she took great care of him, and he had fun, too. I highly recommend her!!!”
18. Eddy J.
“Eddy was very communicative and enthusiastic when taking care of my dog. He asked good questions to make sure he was adapting to my dog’s needs and I was never left wondering how she was doing.”
19. Julie J.
“Julie did an amazing job taking care of our cat, Cal! He is usually shy and fearful of strangers, but she was incredibly patient with him and soon coaxed him out of his shell. Julie also did a great job of sending us a constant stream of pictures and updates. I highly recommend her!”
20. jessie j.
“Jessie was great with our 2 dogs. She was very caring and took their individual needs into account to ensure she was creating a comfortable experience for our dogs that tend to be a bit anxious. She was communicative throughout the entire stay and sent picture/updates. Very professional and would recommend Jessie to anyone.”
