“This is the 2nd time Andrea and David watched my dog. Each visit they make sure to keep me updated with how he’s doing, and with photos. He always comes home the same happy dog he was when I dropped him off. I cannot recommend them enough and I will allow them to watch my puppy over and over again!”
“Hannah was so wonderful to work with. She kept our dog in her home and he came back good and wore out. It seemed he enjoyed his vacation as much as we enjoyed ours. She was very easy to get in touch with and sent multiple pictures throughout his time with her. We’ve already booked her again!”
“I needed a last minute one night boarding for my VERY active 1 year old pup. She was very fast to reply to my messages during the entire process and Cooper came home exhausted which tells me he had a blast there!”
“Yekaterina was amazing! She was so warm and welcoming, and I immediately felt that my Coco was in good hands. She was attentive to Coco’s needs while I was away, which gave me complete peace of mind. Coco absolutely loves her, and we’ll definitely be seeing her again soon!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Ryan & Maria! They took incredible care of my dog over the weekend — from the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease. They sent frequent updates, photos, and videos, which meant so much and let me truly relax knowing he was in such loving hands. Communication was absolutely top-notch throughout, and they were so flexible and kind when I was running late for pickup. Just genuinely warm, thoughtful, friendly people who clearly love animals. I’d trust them again in a heartbeat — highly, highly recommended!”
“Kaitlyn was awesome! She send photographs, and updated me daily. She modified her schedule to allow me to drop Bella off early. She gave me peace f mind while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“Christa is always incredible with our boy! Her communication is great and even was able to drop our dog off at our place so we didn’t have to go pick him up after a long day of traveling. My husband and I highly recommend Christa!”
“Eric & Yanqiu were so patient and loving with our newly adopted 2-year old pups. She was missing home the first couple of nights and they went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and felt loved. We loved all the pictures and updates! We are so appreciative of Eric & Yanqiu.”
“Our dog was so well taken care of. We could tell by the photos sent that she felt right at home. We will definitely use Andrew and Kaitlyn again!!”
“Cindee was great with Angel. Angel is a one on one dog and Angel feel in love with Cindee and felt safe. Which eased our minds while away. Cindee gave her full attention 24 hours. Cindee was always on sending pictures and communicating daily. Her house was very clean and had no odor of animals in her house.”
“Rachel took such great care of my hyperactive 1 year old rescue mutt. Rachel was extremely accomodating and flexible with my pick up time. My dog was so happy in her home and came home worn out from all the playing with her 2 sweet pups! I highly recommend her if you want a loving pet sitter that treats your dog like her own.”
“Hannah is so patient and kind. She made sure Ellie was happy and healthy during her stay, went above and beyond in her care, and was very communicative with me. I highly recommend her for any pup, especially if you need special accommodations for medical or behavioral issues.”
“Brad was friendly and courteous. My pups seemed very happy when I picked them up, and he was kind enough to send a couple pictures of them getting all the cuddles they could want!”
“I recently had Laura watch my 100 lb Goldendoodle, Bogey, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment I picked him up, it was clear he had an amazing time—he didn’t even want to leave! Laura was fantastic about keeping me updated with daily pictures and videos, which really put my mind at ease. You could see in every photo that Bogey was happy, relaxed, and having a blast. Laura clearly knows how to make dogs feel loved and cared for. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I couldn’t have found a better couple to take care of my Goldendoodle, Luna! Ursula was amazing with communication and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Luna was in great hands. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it honestly looked like Luna was having her own little vacation away from home. I highly recommend Ursula and Andrew — they were absolutely wonderful!”
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!! Chris and Tannia are the nicest people you’d want to meet! Their condo is very clean and safe as well. They kept me updated, send me lots of photos and always responded quickly. I could tell Stella was also happy through the photos!”
Secret Cove dog parents share their Rover experiences
Gabriella was great! She sent pictures and videos throughout of them cuddling on the couch together and playing at the park! Very responsive to messages too. My dog seemed super comfortable with her and her place was clean! Would definitely love to use her again!🧡
We needed someone to look after our dog urgently because we had to attend a work conference. She responded quickly and took excellent care of our dog, Dubu! We hope to see her again and highly recommend her! Thank 😊you *We received many pictures of Dubu that it felt like we were with our dog even though we were apart.
My dogs were very happy with Katelyn. They had nice long walks, sent pictures daily and looked comfortable and relaxed. Katelyn followed my instructions perfectly. She even bought additional pumpkin and blueberries for them. On top of that my flight was canceled and Katelyn told me "no worries " and kept them another 2 days until I got back. Highly recommended.
Aldo was fantastic! My previous sitter fell through the night before my flight was supposed to take off, and when I messaged Aldo at 11:30 PM, he responded immediately and was able to take my dog within 15 minutes. His place is in a very safe area, and he made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog in his care. He was incredibly accommodating—when my flight was delayed on pickup day, Aldo happily kept my dog an extra day without any issues. When I finally picked him up, my dog looked so happy and content staying there, which says everything. Thank you so much, Aldo, for providing such great quality care!
Victoria & Corbin took amazing care of my dog for two weeks while I was in Europe, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He absolutely loved staying with them and was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I would 100% trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving dog sitters!
Laura was amazing! I booked her in a last minute crisis. She was transparent about having another booking at the same time, which was fine with me. I got videos and pictures daily. He was well loved in the four days he was with Laura. I can’t thank you enough! This is the first time I have picked up Koda from someone else without issues days later (diarrhea, vomiting, ringworm, ear mites) unfortunately experienced it all. Not with Laura! Thank you thank you
Gabriella was fantastic! She took amazing care of our two dogs. She was great at sending plenty of pics while we were away and missing our boys. She was excellent at communicating any issues they were having. Seeing their comfort levels with her after the first few days proved she was taking such great care of them! We will absolutely be requesting her again the next time we travel.
