1. Ashley M.
“This was Chase's second time with Ashley and it was just as good as the first! She is very attentive and sends plenty of pictures. She put a medicated foam in his itchy spots twice per day. And chase got plenty of play time and attention. Highly recommend booking with Ashley!”
2. Gillian K.
“Our third time using Gillian’s pet sitting services and it was fantastic as usual! My dog is always so happy to come here, and Gillian does such a great job keeping us posted with silly photos. This time around my dog decided to hurt her paw days before my trip, but Gillian put my mind at ease with following her new medication routine and giving me updates on how her paw was doing.”
3. Andrew T.
“Our dog loved staying with Ana and Andrew! We appreciated the daily updates and easy drop off/pick up. Thanks for sending Emma home with a homemade treat!”
4. Tania B.
“Tania is AMAZING!! Our dog is happy and healthy when we picked her up. She sent updates throughout our time away. She is very quick to respond. She is also very thorough when caring for our dog. Would highly recommend!”
5. Jason M.
“Jason is a very knowledgeable dog owner and from what we have noticed has maintained clients for decades, we trust Jason 100% with our senior dog Hannah who is very particular about who she socializes with. Jason is aware of this and knows to keep her away from other dogs as she can be reactive sometimes. Jason absolutely loves dogs and is familiar with all the ones in our neighborhood, to have Jason as a friend and neighbor is to know all the four-legged friends that hang along with him and that’s not a bad way to live <3”
6. Melanie S.
“Melanie was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my little pup while I was out of town. She even taught him how to lay down. I highly recommend her!”
7. Ann-Marie H.
“Ann-Marie took great care of my fur baby while I was out of town. She sent pictures throughout the stay, maintained communication, and was flexible when we pushed our return to a later time. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to hiring her again in the future.”
8. Katie M.
“Katie was great! Chloe seemed like she had a fun time with her. Katie sent lots of pictures! We also were really grateful for how accommodating Katie was - our flight was delayed and she was so nice about us having to switch around pickup plans.”
9. Regan D.
“I had a sudden need to board Ozzie for 4 days and feel very lucky and grateful to have found Regan. Regan was attentive to Ozzie's needs, exceptionally responsive and great with sharing frequent updates including photos. I can confidently say that Regan is amount the best sitters I've encountered through Rover. Thank you, Regan!”
10. Nate N.
“Nate was great with my active almost 10 year old. Took her on multiple walks daily even in the rain and was very communicative sending pictures snd comments regularly. Will leave her with him again and not worry about her at all.”
11. Dion F.
“It’s always a little nerve wracking when you’re away from your pup for an extended period, but Dion was great with Brix! He was patient, kind, communicative and gave him plenty of long walks which we appreciate. Will be utilizing Dion in the future when needed :)”
12. Fatimah A.
“I got beyond lucky to have found Fatimah on Rover! My boy Ozzy is an anxious ball with new environments and staying at someone’s house is not an easy transition for him. Fatimah took her time to get to know my fur baby, and adapted to make him comfortable enough that he would sit on her lap, be next to her and let her cuddle him (which is mind blowing knowing how anxious he is with people). She even went as far as hand feed my boy because his anxiousness wouldn’t let him eat. If you are looking for someone that really cares for your fur baby like their own while you’re away or just daycare, Fatimah is your best choice. I cannot thank her enough!”
13. Rachel W.
“Our dog had a great time! We got lots of pictures and updates. They live close to a dog park and he got a lot of exercise. Flexible and friendly.”
14. Ruben M.
“Ruben was great with Pip. I really appreciated getting photos and videos of Pip getting acclimated to the environment and other dogs since it was his first time w Ruben!”
15. Joanna K.
“I recently entrusted my beloved furry companion, Binny, into the capable hands of Joanna for a three-day getaway, and I can confidently say it was an experience that exceeded all expectations. From the moment I dropped Binny off to the heartfelt reunion upon pickup, every aspect of the service provided by Joanna reflected a profound dedication to the well-being and happiness of Binny. Throughout Binny's stay, I received regular updates and photos, allowing me to stay connected and witness firsthand the joy and comfort Binny was experiencing. Whether it was leisurely strolls in the park, engaging playtime activities, or cozy snuggles, it was evident that Binny was not just receiving care but genuine affection and companionship. Beyond the exceptional standard of care, what truly sets Joanna apart is her genuine passion for animals. It's clear that she view pet sitting not merely as a job but as a calling—an opportunity to enrich the lives of furry companions and their owners alike. This passion shines through in every interaction and gesture, creating an atmosphere of trust and mutual appreciation — to anyone seeking a dog sitter who goes above and beyond in ensuring the happiness and welfare of their furry family members. With Joanna, you can rest assured that your beloved pet will receive the love, care, and attention they deserve, allowing you to enjoy peace of mind during your time away.”
16. Briana V.
“Briana was absolutely incredible! She took wonderful care of my poodle, Poppy. I had to leave for a work trip and she was super communicative from beginning to end. I received multiple detailed updates each day with pictures and videos. Poppy loves to jump and she was able to help mitigate that with just a few days under her care! I will absolutely be using Briana again. Thanks for taking amazing care of my pup!!!”
17. Yaneris A.
“Yanerys was an excellent sitter for Mora. Her and her dog Arya are really welcoming and give Mora a place like home. Yanerys gave walks, food and played with Mora all time. You can see in Yanerys a real dog lover person! We definitely continue booking with Yanerys for future day sittings or boarding. :)”
