Bennie and Jennie have been absolutely wonderful w my two kitties and I will definitely be booking with them for my next vacation! From the moment we started texting, they have been so responsive and comforting. I ended up needing to change my stay and they went above and beyond to help reschedule the reservation. FIVE BIG STARS! These are true animal people!! 🤗

Diana was awesome with my dog Bailey! She kept me updated and sent me pictures/ videos, took him out for walks often and cared for him as if he was her own. I would definitely reach out to Diana for overnight stay or day care! Communication and everything was overall excellent. Very satisfied with her work!

This is the first time in over 10 years where we had to find someone to care for our dog while we went on vacation. I was worried about how she would do in a home and with people she didn’t know. However, Charlene and her family were amazing! She took the time to understand Fiona and what she needed. Fiona was very well taken care of and was taken on so many long walks, which she loves to do. I will be definitely be using Charlene again any time we travel and can’t take Fiona.

We use Connie when to watch our 2 pups at her house when we are out of town. She does an amazing job and it is obvious how much she loves dogs. They are so well taken care of with lots of attention and walks and she keeps us updated with pictures during their stay. We can enjoy our time away without worries about how the dogs are doing and that means a lot to us. Thank you Connie!!

Tina is an amazing sitter. This was Maples first time with a sitter and we were very nervous about our high energy, curious beagle being in a new environment . But Tina was great at giving us updates with videos and pictures and learned maples behaviors and needs very quickly! Would absolutely book with Tina and her family again!

Lisa and her family were great to our dog. This was our first attempt at using Rover instead of a doggie daycare warehouse, and are super happy with the results. The best benefit is the level of care! Lisa had a few dogs there and it was a great balance of human and animal interaction for our very social pup. Other benefits included regular feedback, more flexibility with drop off and pick up times, and a home environment rather than a concrete floor and kennels. We'll definitely use Lisa again for our pet sitting needs.

Lexie was absolutely AMAZING! In all the years I have used Rover all over northern and southern California, she has been by far my favorite pet sitter. She is so communicative, understanding, and a true dog lover. I’ve never seen Maple and Wasabi warm up to any other sitter the way they did with Lexie, it was so obvious they truly adored her and no wonder why! She included them in everything, played with them, didn’t mind their silly quirks and clinginess — I was so touched she even included them in her everyday routine and took them to work! It was so sweet and reassuring to receive all these updates and see her do all these things we didn’t even ask her to do, especially since it was the first time we have ever left my dogs this long. We will definitely be booking with her and only her again! I’m sure my dogs will be so excited to see her again! 🤣♥️

I can’t recommend Jing and James highly enough. From our first interaction, they were professional and responsive to all my questions and requests. But what really impressed me was how caring they were with our doodle Lily. They didn’t just watch her—they actively engaged and played with her throughout her stay, and sent timely updates so I could see she was having a great time. It’s clear they genuinely love what they do.

Kiril and Volha did an amazing job with boarding our Husky! We were away on vacation for about 2.5 weeks and they took very good care of our dog. They were very attentive to his needs and they checked in with us on occasion to make sure we knew everything was going well. I would highly recommend them for anyone looking to board their dog and we will be a repeat customer in the future!

I was honestly pretty nervous leaving my 4-month-old puppy, Rue, for the first time, but Amanda completely put me at ease. She did such an amazing job caring for her and treated Rue like her own. I really appreciated all the updates and pictures she sent, which made me feel so much more comfortable while I was away. It was clear Rue was having a great time, especially with all the fun outings Amanda took her on. She was attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience and would absolutely trust Amanda with Rue again.

I’m so grateful to have found Lisa! We have a 7 month old blue heeler that is a lot of energy. So it was important for us that she be somewhere where she was getting stimulation and exercise while we were away for 2 weeks. She got to play with other pups and go on walks and also have alone time in a crate to sleep and regulate since she is still a puppy. Lisa is calm and loving and knowledgeable and clearly loves animals :) She kept us updated while we were away so we were never worried. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
