“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”
“Having moved recently to New Bedford, we didn´t have any close friends or relatives to leave our Lhasa Apso Johann with. We are so glad we came accross Taylor and Tyler on the Rover platform. They responded to my first contact almost immediately and were very attentive in getting back to me so we could arrange our meet and greet. They took care of Johann for 5 nights and would send me pictures daily and keep me posted. Johann adapted very well and we could see he was being well taken care of and having a fun time! We are so happy and thankful we now have a place to leave him when we next have to travel without him!”
“Melissa was awesome always updating me about mickey . She made him feel comfortable and even thought he had a few accidents she was very understanding and respectful. I highly recommend her and will definitely book her again. Thank you Melissa you were amazing”
“Kevin is a very caring and attentive dog sitter. This was Finn's first time with Kevin and he sent a timely and detailed update letting me know how Finn was settling in. I'm so appreciative.”
“Kathleen provided excellent care of Clara. She was so kind and provided lots of updates and pictures which we loved. She went above and beyond to make sure Clara felt comfortable, happy and loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you for everything you did an amazing job. We would recommend and will call her again !!”
“Puff is in great shape. Rebekah took very good care of her. I certainly would think of asking her again. I'm so glad Rover.com and Rebekah were there to take care of my kitty when I went on vacation; they get all five stars. Where am I supposed to leave a tip for Rebekah?”
“I can tell by how eager Splash is when she gets out of the car that she loves vacationing with Sergio. My girl is an abandoned rescue with lots of anxiety but loves hanging out with Sergio. Thank you so much!”
“Austin was amazing watching our dog for a week--he came back happy and healthy, Austin was super flexible and accommodating for last minute needs and would recommend him to anyone in need of a dog sitter!”
“Mike and his family were great. We left our very active pup with them for four days. Abe loved running in the back yard ( which is fenced in and huge) and playing with the other dogs. The communication with Mike was efficient and responsive and he sent daily pictures of Abe. We would definitely recommend Mike and will certainly use him again in the future.”
“Our Remy loves her stays with Malerie! She is always treated warmly when we arrive and I have prace of mind while Remy is there. I have booked with her multiple times!!! 10 out of 10 experience”
“Tara was an amazing sitter for our dog Luna! She was easy to schedule with and sent photo/status updates throughout the stay. We would definitely have her sit Luna for us again and would recommend her to others!”
“If I could give more stars, I would! Shatane and her family are truly wonderful people. They treated Ziggy and me with respect and showed Ziggy love and attention every day during his 3-day stay this week. I would definitely recommend Shatane—excellent communication, with plenty of updates, pictures, and videos.”
“Amanda was fantastic! She communicated promptly and clearly prior to the drop-off, and took really good care of our aging corgi for a whole week. We got regular updates while we were away. She clearly cares about animals very much and makes sure that all members of her family behave in a way that the visiting dog can understand and be comfortable with. I highly recommend Amanda!”
“My dogs had a great time judging from the pictures Madison sent. They seemed to really love Madison and her husband. When I finally got them home again, both of my dogs passed out, which means they played hard. I’m satisfied.”
“This was my first time leaving my puppy for such an extended period of time, and it was nerve wrecking trying to figure out how to keep Mushu safe, happy, and healthy while I was away. Thankfully, I came across Casey and Phil's profile. Met them and their dog Chloe for a meet and greet far in advance, heard about their extensive experience with dogs, and got to see Mushu interact with them in person. Spent way too long talking to them about anything and everything, and they were very patient with me and my concerns. Casey was also super helpful with reassurances, frequent updates, pictures, and videos. Overall, great experience. Heard Mushu was anxious for a bit because it was such a new experience, but he seemed content to play and receive all the love and attention while he was there. Thank you for caring for my baby!”
“Zachary was great! He sent me photos every day showing what a great time Maggie was having. I will absolutely have him take care of my Maggie again in the future.”

South Dartmouth dog parents share their Rover experiences
Austin was amazing with my two dogs! He was so attentive and spent lots of time outdoors with them! I do not like to leave them with anyone, and he made me feel comfortable right away and that’s huge for me! My dogs come home exhausted after a 3 day stay with Austin! He sent so many pictures and it made me happy to know that he took the time and effort with watching them and keeping them safe. He listened to every detail I messaged him about and had so much patience, especially knowing I was nervous. Our flight was delayed and he had no problem with keeping them for an extra time period! My dogs came home super happy and tired.
