1. Katherine B.

“We booked Kate for a weekend for our 3 dogs. She spent a bunch of time during the initial meet and greet and literally pet our dogs the entire time. We received short updates and pictures of our dogs looking really relaxed. Everything went well and we will be booking with Kate in the future.”


2. Caroline & Gavin C.

“Caroline has been amazing with both our dogs over the years. She cared for our senior dog, Sammy, with such calm and gentle energy, and now she’s just as wonderful with our spunky two-year-old Ava, who absolutely adores her. Ava lights up every time Caroline comes up to the door! She’s caring, patient, and truly loves what she does—I can’t recommend her enough!”

Very excellent sitter for both my dog and cat, and when I told her during the Meet n Greet that my cat is extremely cuddly she said "say no more" and proceeded to give him all the attention he could want from a stranger. No issues whatsoever with her during her stay, was always on time with my written down feedtime suggestions, and gave my dog a bunch of playful exercise.”


19. Lani H.

“Lani was amazing with our mini golden doodle Dutch! She was so communicative and sent pictures often which really helped us feel comfortable with it being the first time we have ever left him with a Rover. Lani came by the house to meet Dutch prior to her stay and she left the house in great condition. We would absolutely recommend Lani to anyone and would happily have her take care of Dutch again. Thank you, Lani!”


20. Tashia C.
