1. Chad A.
“Chad communicated frequently (but not too much :)) during our dog's stay. He provided several pictures which was also nice! Our boy is an anxious boy & Chad & his family were very patient with him! I am SO glad we chose to use Rover (and chose Chad) over boarding him at a boarding facility. We will definitely send Malone back to hang out with Chad!”

“5 stars all the way! Jeff and his family are wonderful! Our pup is shy and skittish of new people but Jeff and family quickly put her at ease. Even better, I got loads of picture updates. My pup was loved and cared for and had a great stay! My pup will definitely be back!”

“Danielle was awesome! I would highly recommend. This was ours and Chili’s first Rover experience and it went exceptionally well. He loved Danielle and her dogs.

Danielle is so experienced and even had recommendations for us on how to train his reactivity.”

16. Adam H.
“Adam had a super easy intake process esp because he has no pets so no meet n greet was necessary. He was also easy to communicate with and send over vids and pics of my fur baby. Pearl was happy when she returned. Would highly recommend”
17. Zo H.
“Zo is an exemplary pet sitter in my opinion. This was my first time boarding my cats for a vacation and she walked me through the process beforehand, which I greatly appreciated. She suggested I bring things like a scratching post which I hadn’t even considered. Zo has been more than accommodating by communicating daily with updates, pictures, and even videos of my cats’ visit. When it was time to pick them up, Zo had all of my things conveniently packed and ready to go by the door. The whole process went so smoothly. I couldn’t have asked for a more accommodating, experienced, and friendly pet sitter. Thank you Zo! I will be recommending you to everyone I know and will come back the next time I need a sitter.”
18. Hy & Arlo K.
“Hy and Arlo were great sitters for our pup during a long vacation. It was his first time staying for a long period of time somewhere unfamiliar and Hy put us right at ease. Right off the bat, they seemed very comfortable with our pup and very confident around dogs generally, and pup took right to exploring their spacious home with a nice, fenced in backyard. Our dog is dog-reactive and they had ideas for best routes to walk him in their neighborhood. During our trip, they were able to use their intuitiveness to troubleshoot some barking at night. When we picked him up, we could tell he took a real liking to Hy while we were gone. Thanks Hy and Arlo for taking such good care of our guy while!”
19. Charlene E.
“Charlene is the sweetest!!! I was recommended to her and so happy she was able to watch Walter. I loved that she kept me updated and sent photos, made me feel so much better being away from him. She gave him so much love and made sure he felt comfortable. Walter is excited for his next stay with Charlene!”
20. Kit Jon S.
“This is the 2nd time we used Kit to board our dog Barry. She was great! We were given regular updates on his activities. And she took such good care of him that Barry thought he was on an extended playdate. We would recommend her services anytime.”
