5. Chris K.

“We live in Orange County and just visited Bay Area to attend a friend’s wedding this past weekend and had Daisy, our 1.5 year old golden doodle, with us. We were so lucky to find Chris on Rover to have Daisy stay with him for the 24 hour window that we were engaged in the wedding activities. He is a super kind and caring guy and he and his wife treated our little daughter like their own dog. Every time I texted him I got an update with a cute picture within 10 minutes? Couldn’t be happier about our dog sitter choice, strongly recommend him to anyone living in the area or visiting and will definitely use him on our future trips to Bay Area.”


6. Kamila Z.

“Kamila is amazing with our two dogs (one who is not potty trained). She makes sure they have great experiences. And since she is a Vet, I have total confidence in her ability to keep the dogs safe. She has access to dog parks where she lives. I highly recommend her.”

9. Allen S.

“Allen and his family took great care of my energetic young dog during our vacation. Communication with good, and we enjoyed seeing pics and videos of her from time to time. She seemed like a happy cared-for dog when we got back. Allen seems to have a calm presence with dogs and a love for them that shows, and I would feel very good about leaving my dog in his care again.”

11. Brayden & Noel C.

“Excellent experience! Our dog had a great time while he was there, and he was very well cared for. We also received many lovely photos that helped us miss him just a bit less 😉. We Highly recommend Brayden and Noel!”




12. Ulunma G.

“We were a bit worried about leaving our 12 year old dog - he tends to not do so well when away from us and given his age and recent health issues we were particularly nervous. The photo updates put our minds at ease and let us enjoy our vacation knowing he was in good hands. We just picked him up and he seems to be doing great! Thank you for taking such good care of tigger!”


13. Chelsea K.

“I would highly recommend Chelsea to care for your furry family members! Not only is she kind and professional, but she was so patient caring for my anxious pup! She sent photographs of him, and communicated promptly when I was away and he was with her. We feel so lucky to have found her wonderful care!”


14. Virginie & Maxime B.

“My senior Raven of 15 years came home so happy and well taken care of. She probably got more attention with Virginie and Max and the girls than I would have given her at home. So I am pleased and should Raven need another vacation away from home, I will not hesitate to call this lovely family again.”


15. Crystal S.


“Crystal took care of my 4 month old puppy for 2 nights and she did an amazing job. Her location is ideal right next to the dog park. She was kind and patient with us. Definitely going to be having her take care of my pup more!”

18. Abigail S.

“Abigail is awesome!! Not only did she take our dog in for the weekend on a last minute notice (we were scrambling to find a sitter and messaged her only a few days before our trip), but she was super professional, kind, and responded to all our messages right away. She also sent us pictures and videos of Snoopy throughout his stay. We will definitely book her again in the future!!”


19. Jane P.

“Our pup, though sweet, is a handful. Jane and her husband took the time to get to know our dog and became great foster parents for the week they watched over her. Great communication and I loved getting the random pictures! We'll definitely be reaching out to them again!”


20. Namrata D.

“Namrata helped take care of Waffle for a 5 days while we were on a trip and Waffle was in a very safe household. Waffle had a companion in Namrata’s dog and they enjoyed together. Namrata followed Waffle’s routine and was accommodating for any changes we needed on the go. Thank you Namrata.”
