“Wenxin took such good care of my dog Smiley, she showered Smiley with love, care, and patience. Smiley really enjoyed every minute. Strongly recommend Wenxin for anyone who needs help with their dog.”


2. Jifu Y.

“I would highly recommend boarding with Jifu. He and his wife took excellent care of our 8 month old Bichon. They sent video updates and Lucky always looked happy and engaged. We would not hesitate to have Jifu care for her again.”


3. Tracy D.

“Tracy was an excellent dog sitter and took great care of our rambunctious Samoyed! She followed our meticulous instructions and sent frequent updates. We trust our dog is in good hands with Tracy.”


4. Donna B.

“Donna is super nice, responsive, and genuinely cared about Jenga’s routine. She asked questions to make sure that Jenga will have what he needed during his stay at her house. Overall, good experience.”


5. Byung jae C.

“I can't recommend Byung jae highly enough! He was incredibly kind, thoughtful and responsive from the beginning. During our meet & greet he even let Noodle sniff around his apartment so she would feel comfortable when we dropped her off. It gave us so much comfort to receive updates & photos during her stay. Thank you, Byung jae for taking great care of Noodle!”


6. Manli G.

“Thank you for taking such great care of Carmelo! I loved the photos throughout the visit and really appreciated all the communication. It looked like he had an awesome time with your family!”


7. Michael V.

“Michael is very professional, knows what he does, and Muffin liked him from the first moment they've met. I was receiving regular updates throughout Muffin's stay and was given a comprehensive summary of Muffin's behavior and health at the check-out. Can only recommend.”


8. Charlotte C.

“so easy! Charlotte is very accommodating and took good care of my French bulldog who is a terribly finicky eater. She made her eggs every day. She sent me pictures and kept me up-to-date. Her two little girls were adorable.”


9. Kellie T.

“Kellie was amazing!! Highly recommend! I wasn’t worried about our doggo one bit! He seemed to immediately click with her and I felt like she really did her best to give him the attention he needed! So happy to have found her!”


10. Melissa C.

“Melissa (and her dog Archie) are fantastic. She's super friendly and made our dog feel comfortable and well cared for. She sent great pics and updates while we were away. We highly recommend Melissa!”


11. MinJun & Mi Ran P.

“Our favorite Rover dog-sitters moved, but they recommended a new family that took excellent care of our two small pups while we were away. MinJun & Mi Ran P. had a lovely home with a fenced in patio that was very safe and comfortable for our dogs. They were able to feed two finicky eaters, take them for walks, and share many photos and videos of our dogs while we were away, so we knew what they were doing. The bonus was another dog was also boarding and our younger pup had so much fun playing that she is still tired today! Will 100% choose MinJun & Mi Ran for boarding again next time we need it.”


12. Fiona W.
“I just picked up my puppy Lillo after a 10 day trip and I couldn’t be happier of his stay at Fiona! She and her husband were absolutely amazing with my puppy, they took care of him like he was their own: they were super sweet to him and played so much together, shared daily pictures and videos, and were absolutely fantastic - I was at ease from the moment I dropped him till the moment I picked him up. I will definitely bring Lillo back to Fiona next time I need help taking care of him during my travel.”


13. Darya S.

“Darya boarded my dachshund, Millie, and my cat, Theo, for 4 nights while I was out of town. She sent photo updates and kept me in the loop with any concerns. My pets seem to have been well taken care of! Would recommend!”


14. Alex S.

“Alex took great care of our older pup! She had requirements for extra care around medical needs. Alex was extremely communicative and allowed us to be less stressed while on a trip, knowing our pup was well taken care of.”


15. Cesar S.


“Cesar was great at taking care of ZuZu. He is reliable, timely, communicative, and responsible. I feel very relaxed having ZuZu stay with him and will use his service anytime. He also provides additional service of picking up and dropping off which is very convenient for us. He is the best we have had on Rover.”




16. Nina & Leo O.

“My dogs enjoyed their stay with Nina and Leo! I saw both Maru & Chance relaxing and feeling secure in the pictures they sent me every day. This time, Chance needed to take multiple medications for his skin condition, but Nina and Leo managed everything properly. They are very trustworthy and attentive. As always, they are the best dog sitters!”


17. Ahmyah H.

“Ahmyah took great care of our lab and tuxedo cat for a week! They came back happy and seemed to love their time with her. We received daily updates and pictures. I loved that our dog got plenty of exercise every day. We’d love to have Ahmyah take care of them again!”


18. Margaret B.

“Margaret was amazing! As my first time using rover and leaving my dog, she helped make me feel comfortable and addressing all of my concerns. Lego has separation and dog anxiety and Margaret made sure I was comfortable with her plans and approach, took wonderful care, shared videos and photos too. I have been raving about my experience to all of my dog parent friends and can’t wait for Margaret to watch Lego for our next trip!”


19. Kevin & Sarah W.

“Kevin and Sarah did a great job caring for my dog! I was sent lots of photos and it seemed like my dog was having a blast! We already have another visit booked!”


20. Jennifer C.

“Jennifer took great care of Willis, he had lots of fun with other dogs, walks to the park and play time. Looks like he got lots of attention which of course he loves! Thanks Jennifer!”
