“Really appreciate Masumi’s communication, attentiveness, and genuine love for our dog. Rufio spent 8 days with her and he was well-loved during that time. We can’t wait to book again!”


“Tunyi was awesome!!! Our pup loved her and her family. Sent us texts and videos the entire time while we were gone and we just knew Flo was being loved on❤️”


“We are glad Barley stayed with Kaitlin again. She always takes good care of him and ensures that our pup gets enough exercise and sleep. We highly recommend Kaitlin!”


“Our dog stayed with Maryanne for the first time and had so much fun!! Maryanne took her on walks everyday to lots of fun places, she played in the grassy fenced yard and enjoyed looking out the big picture window at the birds on the bird feeder. She especially loved the special attention she was given from someone that really loves dogs!!! We had a relaxing vacation knowing Molly was in such excellent care!!!”


“Yen is a fantastic sitter. We are so glad to have given her a try. She is very experienced in handling dogs. Our puppy, Bailey, stayed with her for 2 nights. He had an amazing time playing with Yen’s dog, Mojo - they get along really well! Yen is also good in communication. Throughout the day she sent updates of Bailey’s activities from having breakfast, playing with new dogs that stayed with her, etc. I received lots of great photos and videos of my puppy with his new friends. Thanks so much, Yen!”


“Emily, Patrick, and Conan took wonderful care of our dog Bella while we were out of town. She was a part of their family for her stay, and I received regular updates (and adorable photos!). I would highly recommend trusting this family with your dog. I will be happy to book with them for future trips.”



“Charmaine and her family took great care of little Cricket. She clearly had lots of attention and play time. I really appreciate the flexibility and availability on the holiday!”


“Nathan and his wife did a great job taking care of our pups. Lots of pictures and updates over the weekend. They even accommodated when our flight was an hour delayed coming in to pick up our boys. Would recommend to anyone looking for pet sitting and I will use him again in the future!!”



“This is the first time I have used Rover.com as I have a new puppy. I was in a real pinch as I only had my pup for 11/2 weeks and my father-in-law passed away out of town. I can't say enough good things about Carolyne as she took my pup last minute, and made me feel so much better about leaving her. She texted me with pictures of my pup playing with the other doggies & got some socialization skills in as well. You can rest assured that she is a great sitter and will care for your animal. I know I will be using her again! Thanks again Carolyne:)”


“Can't say enough good things about Mireya! Wonderful communication. Excellent service. I truly did not have to worry about my dog while he stayed with her. I will definitely book Mireya again!”


“Dottie was exactly the type of care giver we were looking for. She allows the dogs to make themselves right at home with her. We loved the photo's she would take and send to us. Our dog was very happy when he greeted us upon picking him up. We will continue to make Dottie our pet care sitter. She does a wonderful job.”

“I highly recommend Fiona and will sure use her services again. Fiona took care of our dog for two weeks and she was the best, sending pictures and updates and letting us know we left our dog in good and caring hands. We got back a happy dog and feel lucky we found you Fiona - thank you so much for showing love and care for our sweet girl!”


“Kathryn and Mark provided wonderful care for our two dogs while we were away for a week traveling. They followed all care instructions diligently and reached out to us with any questions, provided lots of great updates and pictures, and it was clear the dogs were very happy and comfortable. We will definitely be repeat clients!”


“We recently boarded our toy poodle Ella with Karen, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Karen was incredibly professional and clearly very experienced with dogs. From the moment we dropped Ella off, we felt confident that she was in great hands. Karen provided regular updates and made sure Ella was comfortable, happy, and well cared for throughout her stay. Ella came home relaxed and content, which tells us she truly enjoyed her time there. We were so pleased that we’ve already booked another, much longer stay with Karen. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”



“We’re so happy that Amy & Shelby took our tiny Otto in over spring break. He seemed to have so much fun with their adorable doggies and their kids were great pals to him too. I strongly recommend them. They are a very nice couple with a fun and sweet family.”


“Stacey & her family took great care of our 10-year old Sheltie. Lots of room to run around in their large fenced yard with the other dogs. We’ll definitely book her another stay with Stacey!”
