“Mari was fantastic from my very first enquiry. She was quick to respond, arranged a great pre visit to ensure the dogs would be compatible, which went really well. I knew my dog would be well looked after and one of the family. She sent me wonderful daily updates of how he settled in and what they had been up to, as well as lovely photos. I am very very happy with everything, and know he was looked after so well. Thank you so much Mari.”

“Absolutely brilliant will definitely be letting my dog zara stay with him and his dogs again. Loads of pics and videos of them playing and having a brilliant time she come back home relaxed and chilled couldn't recommend enough.”

“Best dog sitter ever. He managed to run my Luca out of energy. It takes true effort to tire a border collie who is just 2 years and a few months old. Absolutely amazing care. Will definitely rebook it. Absolute gem in this app. Thank you”

“Paraskevi was great at accommodating a last minute request after we had a cancellation. Honestly couldn't recommend her enough, she provided lots of pictures and updates about Jamie during his stay and he was definitely treated well :)”

“Amar looked after my dog when I was away for a very long holiday. He was clearly well loved and cared. We received regular updates from him including photos and videos. Chickoo seemed to love him a lot. We will definitely be in touch with him again.”

“Jack was amazing as usual with Sylvia and she seemed to have really enjoyed her stay with him again. He was happy to give constant updates, which was reassuring and helped put our mind at ease when away. I'm hopefully looking to have him as my regular sitter when I am away.”

“I was very nervous leaving my girl Belle for a week but Kevin and Lauren were very understanding, they sent me lots of updates and photos to reassure me. Belle has come back very tired and contented, would 100% recommend them, and will definitely book them again in the future. Thank you both so much.”

“Casper had an absolute blast with Kristina! He got heaps of love and attention, and he even made some new furry friends who he absolutely adored. I was kept in the loop with all the photos and updates about how he was doing. I’d definitely recommend Kristina again!”

“Amazing. They clearly know how to look after dogs and Bambi loved staying with them. Their communication was fantastic throughout and I got loads of updates including pictures and videos. I would give them 6 stars if I could.”

“Thank you Stephen for taking such great care of Archie, and for all the lovely photographs you sent, this is the first time we have used Rover and it gave us immense comfort to know that Archie was a happy dog. Hopefully you will be able to look after Archie for us in the future. Kindest regards, Catherine.”

“I highly recommend Anna and her partner.Her communication via the app was excellent before we met for our meet and greet, during the time she was looking after Scotty and afterwards too. It is clear to me that Anna loves dogs. Scotty had a wonderful time and was looked after. Anna has sent many photo updates when we were away on holiday, which put our minds at ease. We will be booking Anna again! 5 out of 5!”

“My first time using rover and Helen was absolutely fantastic ! You can tell her and her family really love dogs she made my dog Izzy very comfortable and the transition was amazing! I had regular updates and she cared for Izzy as if she was her own dog took her out for walks and even allowed her to have the same routine with sleeping so that Izzy was comfortable. I would highly recommend Helen to care for anyone’s dog she has knowledge and is just a really caring person who is kind and wonderful with dogs.thank you very much Helen I will definitely use your services again in the future thanks Claire and Izzy x”

“Joanna and her beagle Larla were very welcoming to our dog and took good care of him. I was updated with pics and how the day was progressing. Thank you very much Joanna - would recommend”

“Stepped in at the last minute to look after Maldwyn overnight for me. Joel took really good care of him made sure he had his meals on time and took him for his walks. Always good to hear good things about Maldwyn and how much of a good guest he is and I always take it as a good sign when he's reluctant to leave with me when I go and collect him. Thank you Joel!”

“Bella had stayed overnight with Enireth and her two dogs previously but had a weeks stay over the May half term week. She had a lovely time, enjoying walks, playing in the garden and cwtching up on the settee in the evening. When we picked her up after coming home she was quite happy and had obviously been well looked after. Will certainly ask Enireth to look after her again in the future.”

“Claire and her family looked after my 2 year old Dobermann Hildy for 4 days only a few weeks after her spay surgery and they were utterly spectacular! Hildy was more than well looked after in a very accommodating and loving family setting and spent the entire day following her stay sleeping completely knackered. Hildy is a high energy breed and Claire and family clearly handled her very well and went above and beyond for her care especially as it was a short notice booking. Would absolutely love to have Hildy stay for another short stay and would recommend Claire to anyone. (thank you again)”

“Ellena and Kobe got along very well, she sent me pictures and reassured me he was in good hands. Kobe is a large dog, can be a handful sometimes but they had a good time and would like to book with Ellena again. Thank you for taking good care of my Kobe.😊”
