“Victoria was very calm, collected and kind. She was flexible with our last minute needs and able to handle our very high energy doberman puppy with ease. Will be booking again - 10/10!”
“Dennis did an awesome job caring for our special needs dog who suffers from DM. Our dog needs the assistance of a wheelchair for mobility, and Dennis took on the challenge confidently- with patience and understanding. He sent plenty of pictures and updates, and followed our instructions perfectly. I highly recommend!”
“There aren’t enough words to express just how attentive and amazing Quishu is: Positive, dynamic personality with an ability to get zen when needed. She’s the kind of personality our beagles need. She followed all our doggie care and home instructions, it was such peace of mind. She sent frequent photos and videos which showed us that our adopted and often timid beagles trusted her, felt safe with her and were actually being their true goof ball selves. Most sitters think they’ll try to “fix” their issues which never works and creates a tense dynamic, but Qishu didn’t appear to judge us for all our instructions and expectations. She respected our requested level of care and the beagles and her bonded. Thank you Qishu!!”
“Matt is always great with our dog, Elliott. He was very responsible with Elliott's medication schedule and attentive to his emotional needs. I'll be re-booking Matt for our next trip as well. Thank you, Matt!”
“Elisa watched my dog Maude when I was out of town for a few days. She was super accommodating and flexible. She sent me lots of pics and updates and it looked like my dog, who has a history of separation anxiety, really liked spending time with Elisa. Elisa was also really great about leaving my apartment in the same condition I left it. I would not hesitate to book her for dog sitting or walking again.”
“Charlii watched Wes and Margot while we were on vacation. She stayed at our house with the dogs and sent wonderful EOD updates with lots of pictures and notes. We’re excited to have her watch them again soon!”
“Honestly could not have found a better pet sitter! She really took care of our little crew like they were her own. We came back to stress free, happy pets, which for our needy little lovea isn’t always the norm. Joanna was beyond considerate and sent lots of pictures which showed just how well cared for they all were. Cannot recommend highly enough!”
“Meshaal was a wonderful dog and house sitter! He has a calm demeanor and is very professional. He took excellent care of our senior dog who has some health needs and took care of all his medications with no issues. He also promptly responded to all our check in messages. Our dog loved Meshaal and and was crying when he left! Meshaal also left our house better than we left it. Looking forward to rebooking with Meshaal again in the future. Would definitely recommend Meshaal to others!”
“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”
“Fuliang was always quick to respond and took great care of our dog. He was super flexible and even came early and stayed later than planned to accommodate our flight schedule.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and Caroline made it wonderful! Flip Phone and she got along swimmingly. She is responsive, communicative, and responsible. We will be asking Caroline to look after Flip Phone on our future trips!”
“We were nervous about leaving our doggie + home with a sitter for the first time, but Aman totally put those nerves to rest! He's incredibly responsive, thoughtful and responsible. Clearly loves dogs. I think he's honestly more careful taking care of our dog than we are sometimes – which is exactly what I look for in a sitter!! Not only did he take care of our pup, but he also helped take care of our home while we were gone (4 nights!) by watering our garden, bringing packages insides, and even taking out the trash cans on trash day. We really appreciate Aman's thoughtfulness and would definitely book with him again!”
“Tia is an absolute gem of a human! My babies adored her. She was attentive, caring, and so sweet! I have an XXXL dog + a medium o up & a cat & she spent time with each of them, walked the pups twice a day, and made time to play with my kitten. 10/10 recommend- she’s fantastic!”
“Sam is fantastic, a true master communicator with dogs. She adores living their lives with them, taking them out on the trails and playing their favorite games. Couldn’t be happier to leave our pup in her hands when we’re out of town.”
“My dog has a lot of needs around her anxiety and Imani took great care of her while I was out of town! Very communicative and friendly. Would absolutely book again.”
“Nicky was great! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates, an b d left my home tidy. Pancake was happy and smiley in all the pics. What more can you ask for in a dog sitter. Definitely recommend and will use again in the future!”
“Marina is great! She house/dog sat my two small older dogs for three nights. She is/was dependable, trustworthy and respectful of my house with all its little quirks. If I had a question, she answered right away and sent pictures. The house was as clean as if I'd never left. I was able to enjoy my vacation with no worries about my little dogs. My dogs were very calm and happy when I returned. I doubt they missed me at all. I would definitely hire Marina again.”
