“Amazing! I was so nervous to leave my baby with someone I don't know, but she was awesome. I got daily photos and updates and my fur baby had a great time! Will definitely be back!”
2. Nohemi G.
“Nohemi takes excellent care of our 7 yrs old Cockapoo (Captain) with no issues at all. She is great in replying back to messages and send pic of our Captain. I will definitely use her again for another boarding in a coming weeks and recommend her to anyone who needs good care of their dogs.”
3. Gianina K.
“Nina was great and my pet was happy staying in her home. Nina communicated well and before booking with her we met so my pet can get to know her before the stay. During my vacation, Nina would send me pictures of my pet and messages about how she was doing. I was satisfied with her care and would definitely recommend her to others and use her again in the future. Thank you!”
4. Robin & Daniel R.
“Robin and Dan provided such loving and attentive care to Maica. They went above and beyond to keep her feeling safe and at home. They also provided wonderful updates with pictures and fun descriptions of Maica's activities. My dog has certain anxieties and sensitivities and they were very astute to pick up on them and provide the environment and comfort she needed. I was so grateful for their care. It would be my honor if they could care for Maica in the future.”
5. Ka Yan W.
“It was a great experience! I was hesitant to board my 4-month-old puppy Jojo at first because of her age. But Ka took wonderful care of her. She’s very experienced with dogs and I was truly impressed by the way that she introduced the puppy to other adult dogs. She sent photos and updates multiple times a day during her stay. My puppy seemed to have a great time at Ka’s place and looked both tired and happy when she got home. I’ll definitely recommend her as dog sitter.”
6. Lea F.
“We're repeat customers, and trust Lea with our dog even when going out of town with minimal cell service. She is flexible with drop off and pick up times, and handles all of our senior dog's dietary and medication needs without any problem! Our dog gets excited to see Lea when we drop her off, so we know she has a good vacation herself! Thanks so much Lea!”
7. Meilani M.
“Meilani took good care of our 1 yr old mini goldendoodle loki,she is wonderful, our dog was safe and comfortable during the time. Recommend her for your fur friend too.”
8. Janet P.
“Janet and her housemates were super sweet. She had great communication with pictures and did a good job keeping my energetic puppy entertained.”
9. Mary L.
“Mary & her husband were kind and hospitable cat sitters for our anxious kitty, Lila. They took care of her as if she were their own and it was so comforting as this was the first time we had to get a sitter for our cat. Mary sent us plenty of photos, videos and general updates during Lila’s stay and was very communicative. We highly recommend Mary and will definitely be working with her again in the future.”
10. Marc & Jayne W.
“Marc and Jayne was my first time trying Rover and they made the whole experience very enjoyable. Our dog Mango had the best time being boarded at their place for 7 days and we’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommended!”
11. Ari J. W.
“Ari is amazing! He stayed with our doggie for 5 nights and 6 days. Ari sent photos and videos which we greatly appreciated. Our dog can get rashy if she's on grass for too long. She was happy, loved, and rash free when we picked her up. Thank you so much again Ari! We appreciate you! Our doggy will definitely be back :)”
12. Ana L.
“Ana was so incredible! Our little dog daughters had such an amazing time and almost didn’t want to come home. Ana walked them each day, spoiled them to bits, and even let lemon and bean sleep on her bed at times. She kept us up to date frequently with pictures and notes of what they were up to. Bean is a very timid dog and for her to warm up to someone new so quickly is no easy feat! Highly recommend Ana, she’s tremendous!”
13. Olivia M.
“Olivia was quickly responsive with all of our communications. She inquired about our dog's needs, preferences and habits during our 'Meet and Greet' visit. While we were gone, she often sent us pictures and updates of how our dog was doing. We were very pleased with Olivia's business integrity, and her TLC of our dog. We have just booked another weekend for our dog with Olvia.”
14. Kan L.
“Kan went above and beyond for Peanut and Butter! He was accommodating, communicative, and very patient. He has a lot of experience and knowledge of small pups like Peanut and Butter. Kan boarded them for 4 nights and sent me photo updates every day. I could tell the dogs were very comfortable with Kan because they were cuddling with him in all the photos! I would rebook again as his prices are very reasonable too!”
15. Emma S.
“When you meet Emma you know she is a dog person. I have two labradors and they are very comfortable with her. They enjoy playing and hanging out with Emma and her dog. She understands the dog’s body language, their wants and needs, and most of all she knows how to discipline and train the dogs. She has a knack with communicating with them. She is truly a dog whisperer.”
16. Roni h.
“Roni took great care of Vino and Belaire and took plenty of pics! Its always so hard leaving them when i travel but she made it not so hard:) Her house is perfectly puppy friendly! She even picked them up and dropped them off. We look forward to more dates with Roni!”
17. Marina & Anwar M.
“Really good experience! My dog, Toasty, stayed with Marina and Anwar for 4 days. They sent many frequent updates throughout the day and I always felt as thought my dog was in good hands. My dog also has a bit of a sensitive tummy, and they made him some boiled chicken and rice to soothe his tummy when it did start acting up. They also provided some for us to take home, which was totally not necessary but very much appreciated. I highly recommend Marina and Anwar for your dog sitting needs!”
18. Sarah H.
“Sarah was great about communication around our booking, and during my dog's booking! We got updates, and it seems like our dog had a lovely visit. :)”
19. Carla Q.
“Carla was super sweet watching our Phoebe-girl over the weekend. She kept us updated on the status of our pup by sending a bunch of photos and videos while we were away. We can tell our girl had a great time and we’ll definitely be booking Carla again in the future.”
20. Celina L.
“Celina and kids took such goof care of Bear. She sent pics daily and offered for him to stay longer if need be. He even slept with her son. Thanks Celina and family.”
