“As usual, Gienna was wonderful, providing great care for Wagner. We got daily updates with photos and videos. Wagner clearly loves staying with Gienna and really bonded with Maggie. We feel really confident leaving Wagner with Gienna and have already booked more stays!”
“Jennifer was a wonderful care taker for our dog. She was patient and kind. Kept us updated on a longer stay. We will definitely use her services again. Thank you.”
“Ariane and her family were wonderful with our sometimes-anxious cockapoo, Millie who spent 10 days with them while we were out of the country. She went for walks alongside Ariane's two dogs, lay in the sun on the fenced deck, joined Ariane in the car on errands and fully participated in their family life. Ariane was great at sending frequent updates which were much appreciated. Millie seemed relaxed and happy when I picked her up - she will definitely be a returning guest!”
“Andre was great with Luna ! Kept great contact with videos. She was walked for hours a day. When I picked her up she ate and crashed out. She was clearly tired. I will definitely use Andre again!!!🐆”
“Lady always has a great time staying with Natasha & Jonathan. She's always well taken care of, and they send plenty of updates so we can see what she's up to. We highly recommend them!”
“My dog Hank had the most amazing time with Lindsay and her family. She is extremely communicative, caring, and loving. 1000% recommend her and we will be bask.”
“Nice communications and Brewster was happy at drop-off, in pictures and at pickup. We had problems getting back and Hyesun and Bob were very accommodating as we were stuck overnight at an airport hotel! Location is wonderful for a dog as the walks in this part of Marblehead provide quiet streets and variety of sniffing :)”
“Ana Maria was great with my puppy. She was very caring and understanding of my puppy separation anxiety, and also she was flexible with my last minute schedule change. She was truly a blessing during our trip to MA and I am looking forward to come back to MA to visit my daughter and booking with Ana Maria again. 😊”
“Natali was great! She watched my pooch for me last minute and ensured he was comfortable and well taken care of after being neutered a few days prior. Would definitely recommend and book her again!”
“Thank you Julia for taking great care of my dog Ronny. We have been with Julia for multiple times and she is always great and easy to work with. And my dog Ronny loves staying with her.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! She was extremely communicative and sent lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. I had to book last minute due to a family emergency, and she completely put my mind at ease. Lily was so well cared for and happy when I returned. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Freddi was a fantastic sitter for my dog, Edie! She sent great photos and updates during her stay. She clearly took great care of Edie, taking her on long walks on the beach every morning and being sensitive to her needs since she can be anxious in new places. We definitely would recommend Freddi and hope to have Edie stay again in the future!”
“Paul and Megan were fantastic. They took such good care of our crazy little corgi, sending us pictures and videos each day while we were away and regular updates about his mood and activities and overall how he was doing. It made it so much easier for our family to be away from our pup for the first time since we got him. Can’t say enough great things about the experience with Paul and Megan.”
“This was our first time using Rover. Our Cavapoo Clementine likes to be around people and can get nervous in new places. She did great with Lori and Billy. They are very, very nice flexible and accommodating. Great care for our dog and lots of communication with us. Now that she’s back home we think Clementine is missing her new friends! Highly recommend Lori!”
“Patricia was fabulous! She took incredible care of our pup like she was one of her own! When watching her during the heatwave Patricia made sure there was lots of fun things for her to do to cool off. She got to go swimming in the pool and played around in the splash pad. Patricia was great at keeping us updated and sent lots of photos and videos! Our pup can’t wait to go back!”
“Jhoanna was absolutely amazing! Sending updates and was quick with responses. Our girl Sadie was sad to leave. 10/10 would recommend! Definitely someone I’d trust with my girl again!”
Salem dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kyli and Scott were amazing! Our dog had so much love, attention, adventure, and care. He didn't want to leave! They took him to the beach, played with him with their giant bucket of toys, and sent lots of great pictures that are probably going to end up on his instagram. They were extremely responsive, and while our dog Kyle usually doesn't eat much when in a new environment, was actually eating his kibble more than at home! Would give more than 5 stars if I could.
Mirellys has been an absolute angel when taking care of my pup! I was away for a long weekend and she sent me videos, photos and I received so many amazing updates. I knew he was in the best hands possible with her. She is so caring, attentive, sweet and made sure he was eating, getting lots of walks, snuggles, playtime and attention! I know my dog is missing her too because he had such a nice doggie getaway with Mirellys! I will definitely be using her again! If you need a sitter or any kind of help with your four legged babies I would HIGHLY recommend her!!! 🙏😊
Andre is great. He took great care of our dog and his training method is excellent. Our little boy was exhausted but learned to safely walk on sidewalks, stop before crossing the street and staying and coming when called. We will continue to work with Andre to refine his skills so we can take him anywhere confidently and safely. Highly recommend Andre to anyone needing help training.
This is the third time Tina has taken care of Bill and we'll continue to use her help. She keeps us informed with pictures and videos on how Bill is doing and she keeps him very busy as well. Bill is always happy to see her and stay with her and that gives us a peace of mind knowing that he is also happy when we are having "adult" vacations. We highly recommend her, she is trustworthy, reliable and very easy to talk to.
Samantha was unbelievably helpful, thoughtful and communicative taking care of our little guy Benny during our wedding weekend up on the North Shore. She absolutely went above and beyond for us during a special, and specially chaotic, weekend - allowing us to make memories with him on our special day while knowing he was well taken care of through the night. We couldn't have pulled it all off without her!
