“This was the longest time I've been away from my pup and Michelle did another amazing job. He always looks like he's having the best time with Milo and I appreciate all the updates and pictures they send! So happy to have found a great sitter for my boy!”


“Alex is the best! Our dog was well cared for, had access to Alex’s backyard, and socialized with other well behaved rover pups staying at her house! She came back looking loved and well cared for! Alex sent us so many photos and we loved having updates throughout our dogs stay! Would recommend Alex to anyone!”


“We are newer to the area and this was our first time needing a dog sitter. Lauren was very responsive and wonderful. She also sends lots of great photos and takes lots of walks. Hopefully she will be available again if and when we need a dog sitter.”


“Julie is a perfect pet sitter. She shared questions to help me explain all about my little dolly. She shared daily reports and pictures while my dolly was there. When I met her and Eric at our home visit, I felt immediately comfortable and knew she would do a terrific job taking care of my baby and she did. I'm looking forward to setting up another stay when I go away this spring.”


“Cindy did an amazing job caring for Tino and Coco. She stayed in contact and shared pictures. The dogs clearly were having a good time and felt at ease. I was impressed with how well Tino did with Cindy's other 3 dogs; it was originally a concern. Clearly she was done an amazing job socializing her dogs to accept other visiting dogs. I highly recommend her.”



“Our dog, Riley had a great time with Hilary. He loved going to the dog park! I liked the fact that Hilary sent updates so I knew he was healthy and happy.”


“Matt was a wonderful host! Charlie has a blast during his stay and we enjoyed seeing all of the daily updates and photos of the fun he was having. He came home happy and tired! :-)”


“Jeremy took care of my dog Parker while I was out of the country for a week. I felt Parker was in excellent hands and seemed happy and rested when I got back! Jeremy was super communicative leading up to Parker’s stay as well as during it sending lots of fun videos of their strolls around the neighborhood. Would definitely use Jeremy again!”



“Tiffany is amazing! This was the first time I boarded my Simba. I was so nervous. However, Simba was very well taken care of. Tiffany kept me updated with texts and pictures. She was professional and caring toward not only Simba but me as well. Simba truly enjoyed his stay. I don’t think he wanted to come home! I will definitely use Tiffany’s services again. If you want a reliable, patient, caring, and professional person to care for your pet, Tiffany is your person!!!”



“My dog had a great stay with Laura! She was very kind and I really appreciated how attentive she was to my dog’s schedule. Will definitely use Laura’s services again in the future!”


“I boarded my toy poodle Phoebe for the first time using Rover.com. She is 18 years old, deaf and nearly blind. During our meet and greet with Andrew, I could see that he genuinely cares about pets based upon the look on his face when he saw her and held her during the meet and greet. He described where he planned to keep her and I relaxed. During her 4 day stay, I received pictures and updates, and Andrew answered my questions promptly. Phoebe and I were fortunate to find Andrew. I will definitely call upon Andrew again, and highly recommend him to others.”


“Royal and Rachelle were excellent. They are kind and we could tell took great care in our dog and the others they care for. They communicated all week long and gave us updates on our Bella. We felt 100% confident in leaving our dog with them while we were away for the week! Thank you!”


“Myrna was great with our dog Archie!! She's very experienced with watching dogs and her house seems like a great environment for dogs to have a great time. I'd highly recommend her!”


“Kevin was incredible!! He did such a great job of watching my pup and provided regular updates the entire time. You can tell how much he loves dogs. My anxious dog felt right at home!”


“I always trust my little man with Paula! She treats him like one of her own and sends me pics and updates everyday. Highly recommend her to anyone seeking a loving and responsible petsitter.”


“Hali took very good care of our boy and was easy to communicate with! She sent pictures throughout the entire week so I always knew how he was doing. He also enjoyed playing with their friendly dog- Cooper! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


“Ashley is loving, responsible and communicative. Our dog was pretty out of practice being away from his family due to the pandemic. Ashley made sure our dog settled in and enjoyed his stay. Our dog came back happy, well-exercised and relaxed. Thank you, Ashley!”


“So many words come to mind, but I would gladly recommend Cassandre to anyone looking for loving care for their fur-baby! Cassandre kept me up-to-date with text, photos and videos of Simba and he was clearly having the time of his life while I was away. I will definitely use this service again and hope others find this review helpful.”
