“Kim was great with our dachshund. She’s very caring and communicative. She sent photos and updates so we knew our dog was in good hands. Can’t wait to book again when it’s warm for our dog to run around in her fenced backyard!”
“Kathleen was amazing and caring! Bunch of photos updated everyday and my pup has gotten used to socializing with other fellow dogs thanks to her! Would definitely recommend!”
“Chisato was a great dogsitter! She sent multiple updates every day with how Juni was doing. She followed Juni's care instructions and reached out if she had questions. Juni seemed like she had a lot of fun with Chisato! Thank you, Chisato!”
“Champ had the best time at Kelli’s and did not want to leave! She took excellent care of him and kept me updated the entire time with great photos. Champ made lots of new best friends with her dogs too. Thank you so much!!!”
“This is the fourth of fifth time we used Patricia to watch over our dog. We've never had any concerns or worries once we've dropped him off. Patricia is wonderful to work with and loves our furry companion. Thanks as always!”
“Stella and her husband Jim are fantastic! They watched our 2 VERY active Golden Retrievers for 9 days. She sent me daily pictures of them playing. They always seemed to be having a blast. I know my boys can be a handful but they never seemed bothered by their energy. Stella replied too all my txts and emails right away. You can tell they love dogs! I would give them 6 stars if I could. It was nice to go away and know that Tanner and Charlie were in good hands. I would take them back there in a heartbeat.”
“Angela and Dave took very good care of Jaeger. Angela sent pictures and updates regularly. Jaeger has so much fun playing with the other dogs that he slept for a day after we got home. During a thunderstorm they sat and comforted him. Would use them for our next adventure.”
“We needed care for our almost 13 year old quirky dog, Lucy for a week while we traveled to Michigan to be with my mom while she had major surgery/recovery. I found Debbie on Rover and contacted her regarding boarding Lucy while we were gone. On the phone, I immediately felt comfortable with Debbie. We chatted for 15-20 minutes and I told her all of Lucy's "quirks." She invited us over for a meet and greet right away to ensure Lucy (and us) felt comfortable. Our Lucy has been recovering from a leg injury and also has been a VERY picky eater. Therefore we needed someone that would be very patient with her. Debbie and her family were amazing. Debbie and her husband were able to get Lucy to eat regularly and also take her vitamins! This has been a feat for us let me tell you! They even taught me a couple tricks to get Lucy to eat her vitamins! And since Lucy has come home, she has been so much better with her eating and her leg as well! I couldn’t be more happy ? We received updates every single day...and Debbie took so many beautiful photos of Lucy. She really has a talent for photography! I never had to worry for a minute about Lucy. She was spoiled rotten by Debbie and her family. We cannot express how grateful we are to have found Debbie and her family.”
“Fantastic dog sitter! I picked up my poodle after a week and I can tell he had a great time and was very happy. Alejandra sent me photos every day and her entire family was enthusiastic to host my dog for the week and was involved. Great sitter!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I have to say I am very thankful for John & Louis. My dog struggles with separation anxiety from me and she was comfortable with them and did very well. I received daily updates with photos and highly recommend John and Louis. I will definitely be using them again.”
“Quincy had a blast during his sleepover at Jacob’s! Quincy has saparation anxiety and usually gets stressed out when we leave him but it was clear that he was happy and well rested when we picked him up from Jacob’s place. We love Jacob’s attention to detail as well as he was asking all the right questions during our meet and greet.”
“So thankful for Elisa! Second time booking with her because our dog loved her so much! It was a great time for our dog to socialize with her dog as well. We appreciated the photo updates.”
“Excellent sitter. Took wonderful care of my boy. She kept him active with daily walks and adventures. I would highly recommend Melody. I will definitely have her watch my dog again.”
“My experience with Tommy & Julie was excellent. We contacted them last minute and they were kind enough to take our Dozer in for several days on very short notice. They're very nice people who know how to take care of multiple animals and were great about keeping in touch and updating us with pictures, and were great about responding very quickly whenever I had a question. They even have live cameras in the backyard for us to watch our dog play. We were happy to see Dozer enjoying his time with the other dogs. This was my first time using the Rover app and to be honest, I was nervous about leaving my dog with someone I hadn't met, but Tommy & Julie quickly set my mind at ease. It's very clear they love animals and focus their time and attention on them. I would absolutely leave Dozer with them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet, whether it's just the evening, or for a few days.”
“Kathy is an amazing dog sitter. This is her second time watching Clark and she and her family always do a fantastic job of caring for him. He loves his time there. I would 100% leave Clark in Kathy’s care again.”
