1. Augusta W.
“For my first time using Rover, I was very pleased with Augusta. She is very nice, calm and patient. I appreciated her good communication which gave me peace knowing my fur baby was in good hands.”
2. Doria S.
“I was so glad I got paired with Doria! She went above and beyond to care for my two dogs. From the moment we first connected, she was kind, professional, and clearly passionate about animals. One of my dogs tends to be a bit shy around strangers, and she knew all the tricks to build trust with her right away, which was a huge relief for me to know before we left for vacation. While I was away, I received regular updates with photos and videos, and it really seemed like they were having a great time with regular walks and playful interaction! When I came back, my pet was happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. Doria even left a thoughtful note summarizing how things went, which was such a nice touch. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for your furry friend, I can’t recommend Doria enough. They treated my pet like family, and I’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
3. Victoria K.
“Very impressed with the care and attention Victoria gave my dog. As a veteran on Rover I have experienced many sitters and Victoria is one of the best I’ve had. I truly had no worries leaving my dog with her as she cared for her as I would have. Wonderful communication with videos every morning and evening while always asking all the right questions to be sure my dog was always happy and comfortable. We have found our new sitter. Highly recommend!!”
4. Brittany R.
“Brittany and her family were awesome! Camper had the best time while staying with them & came home and was knocked out which means he had the best time! Will definitely be booking with her again in the future! Kept me updated and went above and beyond :)”
5. Joseph L.
“Joe was great with our 5 y/o cattle dog, Zig. He exercised him regularly, and sent us updates and pictures daily. Joe was responsive, caring, and professional. He even picked up and dropped off zig at our home, which we appreciated greatly. Highly recommend Joe!”
6. Krystal C.
“Krystal took great care of my baby for 6 days! She sent us updates and photos and even took Zeus to get a pup cup! Highly recommend her. Zeus is gonna miss his new friends in Krystal, her daughter and her fur baby Russ!”
7. Richard T.
“Dutch loved his time with Ric!! I got tons of cute pics of Dutch while we were away and he was a happy, tired pup when we picked him up from a fun weekend of playing!”
8. Christine B.
“This was our first time using Rover, and Christine made it an unforgettable experience!! Normally we board our dogs, but since we were going on a short weekend trip we wanted to try something different. Christine made the entire process super stress-free. We dropped our pups off at her home, where she let us inside and gave us a rundown of what she'd be doing each day for them (how many times she takes them for walks, where they sleep, etc.). It made me feel so much better knowing exactly where they'd be staying and the details of their care! Christine sent several pictures each day with updates on how they were doing, which made this anxious dog-mom feel at ease. She truly cared for our dogs as if they were her own - she even sent them home with handmade bow-ties for their collars :') Any time we need to go out of town for a few days again, we're booking with Christine!! 10000/10 would absolutely recommend.”
9. Ellyn V.
“Ellyn is awesome. Our dogs are so happy to go to her house and they come home happy and tired from all the fun they‘ve had spending time with her family.”
10. Xiang & Scott L.

11. Joseth R.
“Joseth was fantastic with my dog. She made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with her, and even worked with another sitter to make sure my dog was taken care of for my entire trip. She was friendly and accommodating the entire time, highly recommend her services!”
12. Sharon G.
“Sharon was the perfect sitter for our mini labradoodle Sydney. She took excellent care of Sydney and kept us updated with texts, pics and videos throughout our trip. We felt that Sydney was safe and loved while we were away and could relax and enjoy our trip. We will definitely be contacting Sharon to see if she is available next time we need a sitter!”
13. Kristi L.
“Summer stayed with Kristi for a week. Kristi did a great job with Summer! Kristi sent updates and multiple photos/videos every day, which helped put my mind at ease. Summer had stayed with Kristi for one night beforehand, and when I dropped Summer off this time she was super excited and happy to see Kristi again! If I need a dog sitter again in the future, I will definitely use Kristi again!”
14. Amy C.

“Kristina and Fletcher were great! Very friendly and accommodating people. Most importantly, doggo was happy and healthy with them! She got lots of walks and attention, and we got plenty of pictures of her loving life while we were away. They were conscientious about her care, and we felt at ease leaving her with them. We will certainly be using them again!”
20. Michelle Y.
“Absolutely wonderful! Someone was with my baby the whole time and she was happy. In turn, I was happy. Michelle was able to work with my schedule... that kept changing.
