“Araceli was amazing she took my dog on in very short notice for the holiday weekend. Very kind, clean home very dog friendly. She treated my dog as if she was her own. She gave updates which was very appreciated. I would 100% book again with her. Thank you so much Araceli.”

“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”

“Kaitlin and Verle took such great care of our dog! He was calm and happy when we picked him up, and I would definitely feel comfortable booking again!”

“Rebecca is a very caring cat professional. She listened and was eager to learn my cat’s needs. She has provided pictures, videos and kind comments throughout my cat’s stay. If you are looking for extra TLC for your cats while you are away, I highly recommend Rebecca.”

“Cristina was the best sitter I have had for Valentina! She was extremely communicative and made me feel that Valentina was safe throughout her whole stay. I had several delays to my trip and Cristina was super flexible, allowing Valentina to stay longer than expected. We appreciated this so much. Book with Cristina, she is awesome!”


“Chau is such a great dog sitter! She is responsive, engaged and enthusiastic. I really appreciate Chau's excellent communication in person, via text and through photos. My dog was very well cared for over the weekend and came home happy and tired from all the fun. I will definitely use Chau again because of her obvious love for dogs and her enthusiasm to watch them.”

“Robin and Rahn took fabulous care of Mabel! She takes some time to warm up to people and they made her feel right at home and sent us several delightful updates. Would have Mabel stay with them again.”

“Coco loves Ana and her husband! They really treat her like they would their own pup. They are super accommodating to her needs as an anxious dog with separation anxiety, and I know she loves the extra affection and attention that they give her while she stays with them. This is Coco’s second time staying with them, and we would book again with Ana!”

“PJ loved staying with Emily so much! Emily sent me pictures and videos of PJ getting lots of hugs and cuddles. I was so happy to know that PJ was safe and in good hands while my family and I were thousands of miles away on vacation. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Emily again because PJ loves her and gets his quirks.”

“Madelyn is AMAZING! Not only was she able to take in my Lola love last minute when I needed someone the most I genuinely couldn’t ask for anyone better to watch my girl! She made the process SO easy! Her communication is BEYOND great! The update photos had me bragging to my coworkers throughout the day about the great hands my girl was in while i was away! For my first Rover experience she is the PERFECT example of how the process should go and feel. SPONSOR her! 🥹😭 thank you again Madelyn you’re awesome at what you do and such a beautiful spirit overall! We will definitely be booking again!!”

“Phillip is one of the best dog sitters I’ve found on Rover! He is very attentive, follows care instructions, and was super accommodating to our booking and requests. Thanks for taking such great care of maya and keeping her so active during her visit!!”

“Monique was wonderful with caring for our English bulldog who needed a lot of attention. She did far & beyond our expectations. This is our first experience leaving our dog with someone else & she made us comfortable & confident. Regular communication & updates & pictures helped a lot. We will definitely use her again!”

“Kenneth obviously loves Rylee and the feeling is mutual. She gets long walks and lots of cuddles. Kenneth sends regular updates and lots of pictures. I work five 48 hour shifts per month and I’m hope to book Kenneth as many of those days as he is free:)”

“Alex took amazing care of my beagle, Rusty, on super short notice—and I couldn’t be more grateful. He was incredibly kind, communicative, and sent multiple photos of Rusty enjoying his walks, which totally put my mind at ease. Rusty told me he had a blast and felt totally safe and loved 🐾😊. I’d absolutely trust Alex again in a heartbeat!”

I cannot put into words or say enough positive things about Zaira. I was previously using cage free boarding facilities to board my dog and would constantly worry whenever I was out of town. Wanting less stress for my dog, I opted to try a personal boarding experience through Rover. Zaira was amazing and so patient with my dog being nervous and shy around new people. By the end of the few days, they were best friends and I know my pup is always missing Zaira. If you’re looking for an attentive, sweet and stress free experience for daycare or boarding I highly recommend Zaira. Thank you!!!!

This was first time using Rover and Carolina made the experience so easy and stress free. My dog is a small, shy, senior girl 🥲 so you can imagine my worry. Carolina was so caring and accommodating with my girl. Seeing photos of my dog throughout the day helped me too. Don’t hesitate to book with Carolina, she is wonderful!

We had an amazing experience with our dog sitter! Madelyn took wonderful care of our dog from Wednesday night through Sunday morning and kept us updated with messages and photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our Archer looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. It was clear that she genuinely love animals and treated our Archer like family. We came home to a relaxed and happy pup, and we couldn’t be more grateful. We highly recommend her services and would definitely book with her again. Thank you for taking such great care of our furry family member. Our Maltese-Shih Tzu can be a little picky and attached to us, but she made him feel comfortable and loved right away. 🐾💕

Mabel loved her time at Araceli’s! Araceli was very warm and welcoming to us humans, but to Mabel she was a dog’s dream host. There are toys, stuffies and balls galore. Mabel absolutely felt at home the second we walked in. Mabel was allowed to get on the couch and Araceli didn’t mind when water dripped off her mouth after drinking water. We knew immediately that Mabel would be in great hands and she was. We were happy to receive pictures and even a video of Mabel having fun. We will definitely use Araceli again. I know Mabel will be excited.

Thank you so much, Devon & Tyson (+ sweet Koda 🐾) for taking such amazing care of Morty. We appreciate all the love, attention, and accommodations you gave him. He came home so happy, relaxed, and clearly feeling loved. He’s curled up in my lap right now, completely content. I also loved all the pictures and videos while I was at my conference. I missed him so much, and those updates honestly made my day every time. Thank you again for treating him like family, he is my heart. Highly recommend 💛

I don’t live in San Diego, but was visiting my partner who had to be there for work. We needed a sitter because some places we were going didn’t allow dogs. We were glad to find Kaleigh. She was easy to talk to and offered to meet beforehand to get to know our girl. However, we ended up getting there pretty late and were needing to drop her off kind of early but it was nice that she offered. Kaleigh sent pictures and kept us updated on Navi. She even took her to work with her when she had a last minute call in because she didn’t want to leave her in an unfamiliar place. She was thoughtful and kind and our girl seemed happy well taken care of when we picked her up.

Peyton was very communicative, kind and welcoming to our dog Nova. Before going on our vacation Nova got sick & he was so kind to take him in and ensure he got his medication and was well taken care of while we were out of town for a week. It was an unfortunate situation since we couldn't cancel our trip, Peyton ensured Nova's comfort and safety and luckily he got better within a few days. I would highly recommend him & hope to book him again under better circumstances (for Nova)

We’ve now left our two French Bulldogs with Ana and her family three times, and we truly can’t recommend her enough. We’re very selective about who we trust with our pups since they require specific care, and it’s clear how much love and attention Ana and her family give them. Knowing they’re in such good hands gives us complete peace of mind. We’ll definitely continue booking with Ana anytime we need a sitter.

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Hazey seemed very content and well cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Emily to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out again for future needs! It was clear that Emily genuinely loves animals. They took the time to engage with Hazey , ensuring she felt comfortable and happy. Hazey received plenty of playtime and even some cuddles, which really highlighted Emily’s dedication to providing a loving environment.
I just want to thank Elba and her husband for taking such amazing care of my babies and all of their needs. My girl Sammy has recently been struggling with separation anxiety, and they truly gave her the love, comfort, and attention she needed. From the pictures and videos they sent me, I could see a completely different and much happier dog. They were also incredibly sweet and caring with my boy Pickles. I’m very selective about who watches my dogs because I want to make sure they are treated with the same love and care I give them, and Elba and her husband exceeded every expectation. If you’re looking for someone to watch your puppies and treat them like family, I highly recommend booking with Elba and her husband!
