“Matthew & VJ took excellent care of my little cuddle bug Roux. He was actually smiling in all the photos. I felt so much ease leaving him there and they communicate & send pics of him all night. Will definitely use again.”


“If I could give Mariola 10 stars I would! It can be very nerve wracking to leave your fur baby somewhere new, especially for an entire week, but immediately, I knew my senior pug Pennie was in excellent hands with Mariola! In fact, so much so, that Pennie was more than content to stick around longer when I came to take her home on day 8. I so appreciate having a loving, caring responsible dog sitter like Mariola so close by to care for my pug while I’m traveling for work. Thank you again so much!”

“My puppy had another great stay with his Asian Aunties! He went on plenty of long walks and came home nice and relaxed. This time, he needed to take some medicine and Karen & Hisako did a great job making sure he took it as prescribed. He can't wait to for his next visit! Thanks for taking such great care of him!”

“Marlene did an excellent job of communicating about MacGuyver's issues while we were away, for which we were very grateful. It was obvious Marlene loved our special needs dog very much (he's blind) and she did her best to walk him twice a day despite him not wanting to walk. (He needed the exercise to get tired and sleep). We will definitely hire Marlene again; her personality is super gentle and kind. Her apartment was impeccably clean every time I visited (3 times). THANK YOU MARLENE!”
“Danielle is so patient with our new pup! He had an accident and she gave him a belly band with no issues at all. They took him to the beach for his one night stay this time. Chili loves Danielle and her fam!”

“Thank you to Karen for a wonderful stay. Yoshi really appreciates her and so do we. We received photos and details about their activities every day and he was very happy when we picked him up. Karen is a straight shooter who will tell you what training may help with your dog. Thank you, Karen!”


“Anchisa is amazing! She is kind and attentive and took wonderful care of our Frenchie while boarding her. Bella is wary of new people and places, but warmed up very quickly to Anchisa and was happy and comfortable with her in no time, due to Anchisia’s warm, loving, and calm demeanor. We will absolutely be requesting her services again!”

“Madeleine took great care of our dog Joni while we were out of town. My dog and I met her for a meet and greet beforehand, which is helpful for our dog - she likes people that she’s met a few times. Madeleine was easy to coordinate with and sent us daily updates with pictures. We’ll definitely book dog sitting services with Madeleine again.”

“My Yoshi loved Joann! It was their first appointment and it was a sleepover, so I was a little bit worried. Joann was so considerate, sending pics and reassurance about my doggie's comfort. I appreciated her thoughtfulness, and we'll be visiting again soon”

“I always feel at ease leaving my pup with this crew, because they treat him like family. they send a few images and offer updates about health/behavior as needed.”

“Alexis and Damien have been great with Margo, sent a lot of photos and updates and were very flexible with pickup and drop off and understanding of our delay. Couldn’t have had a better experience! Thank you so much and hope you’ll have Margo over again!”

“Rachel is a terrific dog sitter! She is very responsive and communicative, and my dog had a great time with her and her dog. I appreciated the photos and videos of their beautiful hikes and play time.”


“Latricia was amazing! Sent me pictures everyday to ensure my pup was safe and happy, and gave great feedback about his behavior when I picked him up. I will definitely trust her with my pup again!”
“Mary was absolutely amazing! I am extremely grateful for all of the updates and videos from her during my dogs stay with her. She was super attentive to my dogs schedule and needs (or more so mine for peace of mind). Would def use her again and recommend her! My dog seemed happy and comfortable with her (and her dog). Thank you Mary!”

“Alexandra was great at communicating and following instructions we left for our pup. We got daily updates and she answered any and all questions quickly and with care. Would definitely re-book!”

“Megan and Jenny were a pleasure to meet and chat with. They took care of my dog exceptionally well with great updates and cute photos. My dog really vibed with them that she remembered their house after the initial meet and greet 🥹 thank you so much!”

“Words can not express how amazing Eiko is as as a host. I had an emergency while out of the country and she stepped in to provide service at a moment’s notice. I can’t recommend her enough.”

“We were nervous to leave our 6 month old puppy, Annie for the first time but Lee was great! Friendly and confident. She gave text updates and pictures during the week we were gone. We loved the fact that she had a couple other dogs as well so our puppy could make some new friends. And we really liked that they were all smaller dogs so our shy puppy won’t be hopefully too overwhelmed around these new friends. It was also nice she provided a crate and toys so we didn’t have to haul a ton to drop off. Thanks, Lee!”

“Claudio was so great with Ginger! I could tell they shared a special bond over just 3 days. It's so nice to trust that someone will be very present with our pup and give her all of the love and exercise and play that she needs! We will definitely be calling Claudio again.”

Santa Fe dog parents share their Rover experiences
Danielle was great from start to finish. I was looking for someone to watch my pups with about a week’s notice, and Danielle got back to me promptly. We arranged a meet & greet and she ask many thoughtful questions about what my dogs are like and what they need. She was flexible about drop off and sent lots of pictures of my dogs during their stay. Danielle took great care of our dogs and they had a great time. Will definitely book with her again!

Coleen was a great sitter! She was attentive and communicative, sending lots of videos and photos. My dog pulls quite a bit while walking, and she handled him like a champ + even tried to train him to pull less (asking us for consent of course). We’re excited to keep the training up :)

Matthew and Van Joseph were the perfect pet sitter. I would absolutely book with them again in a heartbeat. They are responsive and send all the cutest photos/video updates which left me assured my fur baby was well loved while I was out of town. You will not be disappointed if they look after your fur babies.

Our dog had a great time with Hanna! She is incredibly loving and gives amazing attention to details. Hanna went out of her way to make sure that our dog was not just comfortable and well taken care of but understood. Cricket was happy to come home but probably would have stayed with Hanna too!

Joann was wonderful with Gus. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly cared a lot about making sure he was happy and comfortable. She kept us updated, took him on walks, gave him plenty of love and attention, and sent us pics. It was very clear from the updates that Gus was having a great time. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Shruti and Robyn are the best. We always trust them with our dog and know she is well taken care of. We ran into travel delays and they were more than accommodating. Our dog almost didn't want to come home with us. We recommend and will be back for our dog's next stay.
