1. Robert A.
“We had a wonderful experience with Robert and family while they cared for our dog for six days. From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. They sent us lots of updates and photos every day, which made us feel connected and reassured while we were away. Bruno looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for in every picture—and he seemed to have a really good time during his stay. We’re so grateful for the love and attention they gave him and would absolutely book with them again!”
2. Wanda R.
“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”
3. Kaitlyn D.
“Kaitlyn gave S’mores her meds while I was away (which wasn’t something we had discussed in advance because I only found out she needed them that morning!) and S’mores was happy when I picked her up. Kaitlyn was very accommodating to her needs.”
4. Yick-hong L.
“Yick-hong was FANTASTIC with Fiona! From the start, he was very communicative and thorough with the intake before the actual boarding. While Fiona stayed with Yick-hong, we could see that she was very comfortable and happy from her body language. He took great care of her, took her on scenic walks, played with her, pampered her - and even taught her new tricks! We are very happy that Fiona made a new friend, and would happily leave her with Yick-hong again. Fantastic sitter and companion”
5. Jieming C.
“Jieming and his wife Lauren were so wonderful with our pup! They sent lots of updates showcasing chester on fun outdoor adventures, they made sure their home was dog friendly and set up perfectly for chesters stay. Chester came home so happy!! Thanks Jeiming and Lauren!”
6. Holly R.
“Holly was wonderful! Milo had a great stay with Holly and her family, and loved the company of her adorable doodle River. She sent daily photos and was very easy to communicate with. I felt at ease knowing that Milo was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
7. Anna W.
“Anna is absolutely our dream sitter for our very playful and energetic border collie, Atlas. She and her husband gave Atlas so much love and attention everyday. Anna voluntarily sent us many lovely photos and videos of our pup as well as detailed updates daily. They loved Atlas as if she was their own, and we could tell how happy Atlas was staying with them. We felt at ease every day knowing that Atlas was under the care of such a wonderful and caring couple. We believe Atlas was on her own vacation! Thank you again. Atlas cannot wait to see them again. 😄”
8. Hashina M.
“She was great with my cat, usually Wonton hides under beds for a few days around new people. I got videos on the first night and throughout my trip of Wonton hanging out with her and her other cats. It made me feel so much better about boarding her”
9. Pamela & Yocheved & Charles F.
“Our dog fantastic care and attention at Pam’s. They walked our dog regularly and let her play outside in their fenced in yard. They give the dogs they watch freedom to go anywhere in their house. We were really nervous leaving our dog with someone new for almost three weeks but felt really comfortable when we picked her up and saw how happy she was. I highly recommend Pam and her husband for anyone wanting to provide their dog with a loving home when they go away.”
10. Chelsea H.
“Chelsea's love for animals is evident in the way she treats each one with the same affection and respect as her own. Over the past few years, she has consistently gone above and beyond in caring for my dog, and there is no one I trust more.”
11. Tomoe H.
“Tomoe and her entire family were amazing, and my dog quickly adopted them as his second family! Tomoe loves dogs and totally understands how important a caring dog sitter needs to be. She kept me aprised of my dog Muskies daily routine, with daily written descriptions and photos and videos. She cared for my dog for 10 days and treated him as her own, following all my instructions to the letter. I have used two other sitters(not from Rover but though recommendations) and neither even came close to the care and bond that my dog received with Tomoe. She played with him, took him for walks and to the dog park where my dog could meet and play with other dogs . In addition to her care, the rest of her family were also fantastic and played with my dog until he was played out! She is highly educated in the ways of dogdom, and truly has a passion for her work as a dog sitter. If I could give her 10 stars I would....I only hope she has availability the next time I need her services since once you have experienced the best there is no going anywhere else!”
12. Barbara S.
“We went on vacation for a week and Obi had a wonderful stay with Barbara and Jen. He stayed active and played with other dogs. Obi is sometimes a picky eater and they managed really well.”
13. Paul M.
“Paul was a wonderful sitter! He watched Miley for over a week while I was on vacation and he was very communicative and responsive before and during the trip. I could tell he really loves animals and Miley instantly warmed up to him. He gave me frequent updates and responded promptly to my messages. I definitely recommend Paul!”
14. Julie U.
“Julie was so great with our dog Siena. Siena can be a bit anxious, and Julie was so caring and great with her and made her feel right at home. Great communicator, got lovely pictures and updates while we were away, we couldn’t be happier with Julie!”
15. Betsy C.
“Betsy and her family created a welcoming environment that made it easy for our nervous dog to adjust. Betsy gave him all the care and attention he needed and was super responsive through our vacation. We will try to book again before we move.”
16. Hannah D.
“Hannah was awesome. Took great care of Stella; the space was awesome, and gave regular updates with photos. Will definitely rebook in the future.”
17. Kira M.
“Kira and her family provided a wonderful home away from home for our mutt. We received many photo and video updates while we were away. Kira was flexible when our plans changed and went above and beyond to make it a great experience. Highly recommend!”
18. Yulia R.
“Fancy had a great time with Yulia & her kids! He came back happy, happy, and tired!! His coat was also very soft and fluffy, so he definitely got some good brush outs! Yulia and her kids are very sweet and I will definitely trust them to watch fancy for me again!”
19. Daria S.
“Dasha is amazing! She took such a great care of my pup Winnie - super friendly, reliable and definitely loves dogs. Winnie was so happy after their walks, Totally trust Dasha and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog walker!”
20. Jing G.
“We are very happy to have found Jing, someone who genuinely cares and loves our dog, Nara. It was Nara's first time boarding and a long duration of over a week. We were quite nervous but Jing had done everything to ensure us that Nara would be OK. And indeed, Nara was happy and well taken care of. We received photos with short reports daily. We'd highly recommend Jing and yes, we will use her service again. Thank you once again, Jing :)”
