“Christina is THE BEST!! Charlie loves her so much and I don’t have to worry when I’m out of town and Charlie is with her. She sends me pics and updates often. It really makes my heart happy that Charlie can stay with someone who’s so thoughtful and caring when we have to be away from her. ❤️”

“Bianca is my go to to watch my pup. Bianca and her family spoil my dog and give her love all the time. They have been a blessing as a resource. She will provide excellent care to your dog or cat!!”
“Samantha gets an A++++++ from us & my dogs! My dogs loved her & she was soooo easy to work with, I will go back to her & would recommend any of you with dogs to leave them with her. She sends pictures everyday showing how she & the dogs are getting along. She even bathes them while they are there. When I picked my Rottweiler puppy up, she was so excited to see me, & wanted me to meet Samantha. Dogs are so smart.”
“Duke was well cared for during his stay with Haley. I appreciated the communication and updates. Duke seemed to feel at home right away and enjoyed playing with her 2 dogs for the weekend. He was wagging his tail and smiling when I showed up to pick him up. I would definitely recommend.”

Russell dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover and a dog sitter and it could not have gone better. Jane was excellent and sent me daily updates and photos. I had always used the bougie dog boarding places previously and my puppers would always come home stressed. This time, with Jane, it was completely different. They were stress free and relaxed. I would absolutely request dog sitting from Jane again. Thanks so much!!
