1. Karen H.
“Karen took excellent care of my little Frenchie, Milo. She was always responsive and kept me updated daily with pictures and videos. Milo really bonded with her dog, he was so happy to have a buddy to play with. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gave him!”
2. Francis G.
“Francis was a great sitter for my dog, Moo! He was very thoughtful, sending me picture updates every day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell Moo was happy and well-cared for. At the end of the stay, he even surprised us with a laser-printed dog tag, which was such a sweet and personal touch. I highly recommend Francis to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter. I will definitely request him to watch moo again in the future.”
3. Diana G.
“Diana took great care of my cat Oliver. She sent me daily pictures/videos to show me how he’s doing. Oliver’s usually very reserved and takes around three days to come out of hiding when with a new sitter but with Diana he was coming out the first night already. He got along really well with her cat Spikey as well. They were having a blast chasing each other all night. I highly recommend to book her as your sitter.”
4. Maggie & Matthew & Winnie & Edmond Y.
“Gale loved her time with Maggie, Matt, Pineapple and Poori! Very attentive with photos and video updates showing how much fun they were all having together. Thank you!”
5. Renee & Christopher L.
“Renee and Christopher took excellent care of Bear during his recent stay. They were very caring and attentive to our senior dog and sent daily photos and updates. We will definitely rebook in the future!”
6. Yvonne H.
“Yvonne and Fred were extremely caring to my senior boy Ziggy. He requires patience and special attention and they did just that. I appreciate you both for the follow up texts and pictures. 5 paws/stars excellent care.”
7. Kasey L.
“Kasey was great with Lucy - she was very communicative with me and sent me lots of photos. Lucy got tons of belly rubs and attention. Thanks so much Kasey!”
8. Regina G.
“Regina is a great sitter. My dog Itsy loves her and Ace. She keeps me posted on her time with comments and pictures. It warms my heart to see and hear my Itsy is enjoying her stay in her home.”
9. Danny & Marco B.
“Danny was great with our dog Berkeley. We’re new to the Bay Area and typically always had our parents watch Berkeley back in the Midwest. This was the first time we’ve used Rover and Danny made us feel so comfortable leaving Berkeley with him. He sent us pictures and updates throughout the weekend of Berkeley having a blast running around with the other dogs and spending lots of time cuddling with Danny. We picked him up yesterday and he practically fell asleep in the car on our way home! Berkeley clearly had so much fun and we’ll definitely plan to book with Danny again.”
10. Uriel H.
“Uriel did really well with our dog, Jack. Jack gets anxious when there are no humans around so we really liked that there would always be a family member in Uriel's place. I loved the videos and photos Uriel sent too!”
11. Naya Patricia D.
“Naya is the best! She helped me out by taking our two sweet Springer Spaniels for the weekend. She was very kind and responsive. She treated our dogs so well and sent plenty of pictures and reassuring messages. We were apprehensive because it was their first time being watched by someone else, and staying the night, but everything went perfectly. They love Naya!”
12. Cynthia L.
“Our two dogs were very well taken care of while with Cynthia and her family. We received daily photos and videos of their cuddles and walks! It was comforting to know they were in good hands!”
13. Ingyin M.
“Ingyin took very good care of our sweet Coco. She sent us many pictures and videos, along with updates on how she was doing. We'll use her services again! Highly recommended!”
14. Jade L.
“Jade was able to watch our dog on super short notice and was a total lifesaver. She sent tons of pictures and videos of Honey having a great time. We would definitely recommend Jade if you’re looking for a dog sitter. Thank you so much, Jade!!!”
15. Wei L.
“Wei took great care of our dog, Tucker, while we were out of town. We were a bit nervous as we had only left him with family in the past, but she was sure to send us plenty of updates to let us know how he was doing and give us peace of mind.”
16. Bailey U.
“Cash had a great time staying with Bailey and her adorable Aussie shepard. They played and got along great! Bailey was also very communcative, sharing us updates multiple times a day, and was proactive about asking about anything that might come up. Overall a great stay — we've already booked again!”
17. Henrianna C.
“Louie loved his time at Henrianna’s place! We received many cute pics and videos of our baby while we were at our wedding and felt very comfortable knowing he was well taken care of. Henrianna was flexible with pickup and drop off and very great at communicating with us for Louie’s needs!”
18. Kazu & Yuko U.
“Scout looked so happy in all the photos and videos. I felt so comfortable having Kazu and Yuko watching over her during my absence. Thank you for all your attention that you gave to Scout and I feel very confident with you care the next time I need to have a sitter for Scout. Many thanks again!”
