“I was afraid that Lolli wouldn't want to come back home after being so happy and spoiled 😍😍 I had nothing to worry about leaving her with Imogen, she's definitely will be back! Thank you so much!”
“Terry had a lovely time with Jaz and Kayden. We got plently of photos and they asked all the right questions before the booking. Although it was their first booking on Rover, they have lots of experience looking after dogs which was evident and the whole process was very reassuring. We will definately book with them again :)”
“Valeria was fantastic with Kenji over the Christmas holidays. She handled his reactivity with patience and kindness and kept us updated every day with photos and videos. I highly recommend her and will definitely contact her again in the future.”
“Sophia & Joe really have Wilson’s heart 🫶🏼 he absolutely loved his stay with them, lots of photos giving us peace of mind to know he was safe & being taken such good care of! Couldn’t recommend them enough, I’m surprised Wilson wants to come home 🤣 xx”
“I have not enough words to thank Ghada. She was simply amazing. Her love towards pet has surrpised us! If i can bd honest, she looked after our Bruno better than what we do. She kept us updated everyday. Took him to daily walks, cleaned him regularly, played with him. First time I think Bruno felt more love in someone else house. We thank her a lot for giving so much love and care to Bruno”
“We (and more importantly - our dog) are very happy with Leda. It's our fourth time with her, we are very confident in Leda, she is extremely reliable and attentive. Have experienced 0 issues.”
“Second stay with Michael this week: Sue came back to me a happy well looked after pup!! I cannot praise the care Michael provides highly enough! I’ve missed out on visiting friends in the area for not having someone to leave Sue with and thought I’d give this a go. Michael has been wonderful and it means that I’m more comfortable saying yes to events in the future as I know Sue has somewhere safe to go. Thank you so much Michael. You’ll definitely here from us when we head your way again!!”
“Hannah did an absolute fantastic job of looking after my dog Miles. Was my first time using Rover and the first time Miles had been left with someone he’d never met before but from the regularly provided updates and photos he looked to have a great time! Hannah really put my mind at ease and would definitely recommend her!”
“Wei Ein was amazing with my dog,she and her boyfriend looked after him so well ,went extra mile for him,gave him VIP treatment. My dog seemed really comfortable and happy. Will book it again when i need it and recommend to everyone. They are the best👍👍👍👍👍”
“Newton and Jia took great care of my dog Penny! They were super accommodating of her routine and needs, and I was kept regularly updated with photos :) Definitely recommend. Thank you both so much!”
“Holly looked after ruby when i was on business in manchester. She was super easy to deal with and took great care of ruby. Location is right by the canal so lovely for walkies. Would absolutely recommend x”
“Lucy looked after our cat for 2 weeks. Hellim is naturally a very shy cat and needs time to adjust to new surroundings. Lucy was great with him, he was already relaxed after just few days. We had constant updates with photos and videos so we weren't worries at all. I will definitely book with Lucy again if we are in need😊”
“Absolute pleasure to arrange and deal with, and one very happy Lexi doggie. Don't think she even wanted to come home again... Piccy updates, will always re book with Alex and Craig as long as they continue. Georgia”
“Cora has been an absolute godsend. I had to contact her last minute in regards to looking after Lewis and I can honestly say it was the best decision ever picking her. From constant live updates to caring for Louie in my absence was just amazing and truly the best service ! Would 100% recommend xxxx”
“Misha had a great time with Andria! She took him on relatively short notice and gave us regular updates. He also ate all his food with her which meant he was definitely comfortable- it can be difficult to get him to settle with new people so this was really great to see. 10/10 recommend! ?”

Hannah looked after our dog Belly for a week for the first time and she was absolutely amazing!! She was so attentive and trustworthy, and kept us updated every single day with messages, photos and videos of Belly looking happy and content. She even said goodnight and good morning every day with a photo of Belly, which was such a thoughtful touch. Hannah kept Belly’s routine the same as at home, took her on walks, and let her sleep in bed with her, which made such a difference in helping her feel comfortable, settled and at home. To add, Hannah is such a lovely, chatty person and we could tell how much she loves and cares for animals. Belly absolutely adored her. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hannah and will definitely be booking with her again! 💛
Without Michael we wouldn't be able to have a proper holiday knowing our pup was well taken care of. Michael sends lots of updates, listens to all of our instructions and genuinely is such a pleasure to be around so we are sure our dog had the best stay with him and can't wait for the next one!!!!
Tania was amazing and Baloo loved her! She'd send me many updates throughout the day, which helped me understand how Baloo is adjusting to a new place with new people. I can see that Baloo grew very comfortable with Tania and her husband and I'm pretty sure she'd like to visit them again. Highly recommend 🙂
Marshall is a big fan of Colette and has stayed with her on several occasions, as usual he was super excited to see her and came back home a happy chappy the next day! He always has the best time. This was also our younger dog Maisie’s first time staying with Colette, as she is so young she’s still a handful but Colette handled her with amazing patience and grace. She kept us fully up to date and we were happy knowing the dogs were happy and well looked after. They are excited for next time!
It is always scary to leave your dog with someone new, but Xinjie was fantastic from the start. She has extensive experience with dogs and shows genuine love for what she does. Thank you so much for looking after my baby while I was on holiday. I will no doubt reach out to you again!
Ara has the absolute best time with him. He's very calm and loving towards her. She loved going on walks, he always sent me updates and photos, and even took her to his family which Ara loved. His demeanor with Ara assured me that he understood anxious dogs and was comfortable giving her medication. I had peace of mind when she was with him and would not hesitate to recommend him again.
I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my dog. From the moment I left, I felt completely at ease and not worried at all. Maryana sent loads of lovely photos and updates. It was clear that my dog was in great hands and being looked after with so much care and attention. I would 100% recommend.
We are so thankful to Daniela for taking amazing care of our Maya during our week away. It was our first time ever leaving her, and we were quite nervous — but everything went perfectly. Daniela regularly sent us photos and videos, which made us feel completely at ease. Maya even became friends with her dog, Reus, and will definitely miss them. Thank you, Daniela! We will definitely book with you again and highly recommend you as a pet sitter.
