1. Ashley M.
“Ashley watched my baby while I was at work all day. He’s older now, has separation anxiety, can’t be left alone and has a grade 5 murmur so low stress is so important. He seemed to be having the best time with her!! I literally never leave him with anyone outside family anymore so this was a big step for us and I couldn’t have asked for any better.”
2. Tania B.
“Tania took great care of Cookie and went above and beyond to keep her happy while we were gone for 10 days! She got her food, treats and even a new coat! We will definitely board Cookie with Tania again and highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”
3. Andrew T.
“This was the best Rover experience so far! Andrew and his wife were amazing watching over Rogan for a week. They were so responsive / communicative, sent multiple pictures a day and took him on multiple walks a day. Will be using them again!”
4. Gillian K.
“Walter LOVED being with Gillian and Dillon. They took amazing care of him and were amazing updates though out the whole time I was gone. Walter came back happy, healthy and tired!!! We can’t wait to go back!”
5. Ann-Marie H.
“Ann-Marie was great with our dog! He has warmed up to her so well and she is so caring with him. We appreciate the occasional update from Ann-Marie, and whenever we ask questions, she replies. She is so amenable to the pick-up and drop-off schedule, especially if our flights get delayed. She has been a great caretaker for him for both weekend getaways and week-long trips, highly recommend to other owners!”

8. Jason M.
“Jason is hired by multiple locals to take care of their beloved furry friend, and everyone always has good things to say regarding the service provided. Jason’s professionalism and passion for dogs were evident. Jason is not just a dog walker; he is a true animal lover. He takes the time to get to know a dog's personality, preferences, and any special needs the dog might have. This personalized approach makes his customers feel confident that their dog is in good hands. One of the things I appreciate the most about Jason is his reliability. It's clear that they take their job seriously and genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs they care for.”

10. 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 :)”

“Daniel has been my favorite Rover experience to date! Extremely helpful, communicative and overall just a pleasure to have my little French bulldog (who can definitively be a diva!) stay with. Would highly recommend and will 100% book again. Thank you Daniel!”
17. Ruben M.
“We LOVE Ruben!! Our puppy can definitely be a handful but somehow Ruben was able to make her feel comfortable enough in his home to not bark and to snuggle! We love knowing that our puppy was in safe hands and got to enjoy playing with Ruben’s dogs as well! We will definitely be calling Ruben for all future boardings! In addition to Ruben being awesome, his mom made us the sweetest card and sent Aya home with 2 new toys!”
18. Joanna K.
“Joanna was very attentive and took great care of our boxer,Lola! She sent pics regularly of walks, activities, playtime at the park and snuggles. My Lola was happy and even has another dog that was boarding the same week to play with. I highly recommend Joanna and will definitely use her again.”

20. Barbara M.
“A+++++!!!! Barbara and Chewy were absolutely incredible hosts!! We can't say enough about how thoughtful, generous, kind, and communicative that Barbara was during our trip. We were very anxious about leaving our dog (this was our first time using Rover), and she put us at ease, sent frequent updates (including pictures and videos), and was extremely thorough, dedicated, and friendly, and followed our care instructions extremely seriously. Her dog Chewy is a sweetheart who seems to be great as a co-host :) We absolutely recommend Barbara to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter, and we are so grateful to her for this experience!”
