“Our two dogs looked so happy in each photo Rachelle sent. She was quick to answer questions and was very accommodating. My husband and I would definitely utilize her again in the future. To have a sitter we can trust means the world!”
“Extremely satisfied with boarding our dog with Sarah. Our dog, Twink, did not experience any post problems after her stay. Intend to board our dog with Sarah again in the future.”
“Monica was amazing! This was our first experience with using Rover and I cannot recommend Monica enough. If I could give 10 stars I would. She provided daily updates with pictures, she has a fenced yard and has room for them to play. My husband and I were able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our two puppies were well cared for and enjoying themselves. I highly recommend Monica.”
“Ashley wasted out Shepsky while we were on a float trip. She sent pictures. Jersey made herself right at home next to the chair. Her children played with her. Will definitely book her again.”
“Jenna was very nice and sent pictures to us on how our Boston Terrier Hugo was doing. One of his favorite things is to lay on top of the couch cushions which she is fine with letting them do. She even shared with me how I could fix Hugo's tear stains which we were struggling with at the time. She was very timely in back and forth communication by text too, which I appreciated.”
“Great Experience. Cortnie sent updates along with pictures and videos while they watched our dog Winston. We also did a meet and greet a few days before to make sure Winston would get along with their dogs. We just did the one night but will definitely be reaching out again in the future.”
“Dave and Heidi were absolutely amazing with my fur baby, Chance! They are the sweetest couple and sent daily pics and updates. They made sure to comfort her during the storms and helped her get over her anxiety of me leaving. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Clyde was very well cared for! He had many playmates and samantha and zach were very accommodating. They took clyde last minute for us and they were super kind to him and us. We felt great knowing our pup was in such good hands!”
“Erica was so great with my pup Liv. She kept me updated with short videos or pictures during her two night stay and made sure Liv had plenty of outside time in her awesome backyard! Liv has a medical condition that she’s still recovering from and Erica was on top of continuing Liv’s treatment plan. Great communication and flexibility! Will definitely be coming back for future stays!”
“Brandy was amazing !!! She was so good about checking in with us and sending cute pictures and videos of our pup! We can tell our dog had such an amazing time and really enjoyed his stay! We will 100% be using her again in the future!”
“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience! Ashley sent me pictures to let me know how my dog was doing and kept me in the loop so I didn’t have to worry. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.”
“In addition to giving excellent care to our dog, Stephanie did a great job administering our dog’s medicines and keeping him on his restricted diet. We would definitely recommend Stephanie.”
“My pups loved their stay here! Alycia and her partner took such good care of them, sent us lots of pictures, and were super communicative. Will definitely be using them again!!”
“We haven’t left our 1.5 yr old goldendoodle with a sitter before and were very nervous. When we did our initial “meet and greet” with Amy, her hubby, and wicked cute baby boy, she not only put us at ease, but she patiently answered our questions and we left knowing our Remi would be taken care of. While we were away, we got pictures and videos of Remi, which made us happy and set our minds at ease. We know our golden-doodle is very needy and at times, high maintenance, but Amy laughed it off & took amazing care of our girl. We highly recommend Amy and her family for all your dog sitting needs. We will be definitely using her again in the near future. It was a nice surprise to find a card with a picture & a dog treat tucked inside Remi’s things. She thinks of everything <3”
“My dog can be a handful sometimes and Laura was able to tame him. It’s clear that she’s a huge pet lover because she didn’t want to leave her home for any extended amount of time due to my dog having separation anxiety. She also provided me with photos, videos, and updates on how things were going.”
“Ginger is truly a dog whisperer! She’s been amazing with our puppy Zeus, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have found her. From the moment they met, Zeus lit up—and it’s clear the feeling is mutual. Ginger is warm, attentive, and genuinely cares for animals like they’re her own. She keeps us updated with sweet photos and little notes, which always give us peace of mind. It’s such a relief knowing our fur baby is in loving, capable hands. Zeus comes back happy, calm, and clearly spoiled with love and playtime. If you’re lucky enough to book Ginger, do it—you won’t find anyone better. She’s truly one of a kind!”
“Amy was simply amazing! She cared for Vino and Nuggets like she would her own dogs and I know they loved her and Peter, her husband! I can’t thank her enough because we were able to enjoy our vacation and know our dogs were well cared for! She takes great pictures too!”
“Monica took exceptional care of our 5 year old Shorkie while we were out of town for a several days. Was a pleasure to work with and very helpful with the whole process when we had questions (this was our first time using Rover). Sent pictures periodically showing our dog happy, relaxed and content. We highly recommend Monica and plan to request her services the next time we need someone to care for our dog.”
