“My pup Dorian stayed with Kayte for 4 days while I was away on vacation and I never once felt an ounce of worry that he wasn’t okay. In fact, with video and picture proof, it was clear that Dorian was having the best time! Kayte treated my pup as if one of her own and that’s the best you can ask for!”
“If I could leave 10 out of 5 stars I would! Amanda was wonderful and we could not have asked for a better experience. Besides being kind, gentle, and thoughtful, she was very caring and gave our dog lots of attention. We had multiple pictures and videos, which were so nice. She took Oliver on walks every day, not down the street, but to a park every day. She also fed him home cooked chicken (with my approval) to try to get him to eat (picky eater!). I know Oliver had a great time and it was so nice not worrying about our little boy! We will definitely use her again! Thank you Amanda!”

“10 out of 10!!!! Would HIGHLY recommend Savannah!! It was our first time leaving our dog with anyone and she was a perfect fit! She sent texts/pictures of our dog with updates, that just made me feel relieved and less stressed. We will be using her services again for sure!!!”

“Jessica was great! We got pictures every day and a video too! We could tell she made our old girl comfortable and happy in a new environment. She also has a one level house with no stairs to the backyard which is great for dogs with arthritis. We will definitely use her again next time we go out of town!”

“Very nice couple. Our Shih-tzu was wore out from playing with other pups her size. Kristen kept us updated throughout the stay with pictures and videos. Will use again.”

“Doug did an amazing job with our puppy. He was very gentle and kind with her. It was our first time using Rover and first time leaving her for the weekend and I can honestly say I didn’t worry a bit. Highly recommend Doug and hope to use his services again.”

“Randy did an amazing job of watching my Suki. When I dropped her off he showed me around his house and yard, so I could see where she’d be living while I was away. His home is gorgeous with a really amazing backyard she can run around in. He sent me plenty of pictures and videos so I could see how she was doing. He really went above and beyond. He took her to the pet store and got her a new toy, took her to the dog park multiple times, even gave her a bath and got a special dog shampoo for her. I’ve used this app a lot and never had anyone do as much for my dog as he did. I couldn’t believe he’d been on the app so long and my dog was the first one he’d watched. I’d 10000% recommend Randy to watch your fur baby if you want the peace of mind of knowing they’ll be treated like family. I’d give him 10 stars if I could. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thanks again Randy!”

“OMG! Brittany solves our problems! She is the best. My dog now has a second home. I have a terminally ill husband and I need responsible and competent people on our team. Brittany has happily done everything that I have ever requested. She has modified our sitter schedule multiple times, she brushes Pippin’s teeth and she even works with Pippin’s obedience training. We cannot thank Brittany enough!”

“Tatiana took very good care of Benny! She sent daily pictures and messages. She was also very flexible when my flight was delayed. I would definitely recommend her for your pet!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sac was wonderful with my dog, April! She took great care of him and kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. April came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. It was clear that Sac treated him like her own dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Sac, for taking such great care of April!”

“Mr. David was great. i contacted him last minute because my original plans fell through, he accepted and took very good care of my dog. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you again David.”

“Stephanie did a great job with our boy Bodhi. She was sweet, caring and we can tell Bodhi enjoyed his stay. Highly recommend her. She will be our go to in the future.”

“Our golden retriever absolutely loved his visit with Jonathan and his family. He could not have been a more perfect host and it was really nice to have a previous golden retriever owner as a Rover host.”

“I was so happy knowing that while I was doing extra traveling for work Nova would be so well taken care of. It’s evident that she loves it with Cody and has such an amazing time always. Never any problems when booking with Cody. Will definitely use again in the future.”

“Opol was a godsend . Poppie seemed really happy and comfortable. I would.most definitely use her again! Her communication was awesome and he ate all his food. Thank you again!”
