1. Victoria B.
“We really appreciated how timely Victoria was on all communication, making us feel at ease about our pup. Victoria sent plenty of photos (which I loved!) and it was clear she gave Maddie lots of love and attention. Maddie had a great first stay.”
2. Ryan M.
“Ryan was just what we were looking for in a dogsitter. He was super flexible, considerate and a pleasure to meet! Ryan’s dog Luna has a great temperament and it was clear she didn’t mind sharing her home with our dog for a weekend. Ryan’s the go-to for any Southie dog owner!”
3. Tien-Tien L.
“Tien-Tien is great with my small dog Beau! I can tell that she loves animals and always treats Beau like he’s her own. I’ve gone on several trips out of town and left my dog in her care and it’s been fabulous every time!”
4. Phi T.
“Phi was wonderful. He sent me pics throughout my pup’s stay and when my travel plans got extended unexpectedly, he was super kind to care for her an additional night. This was my 1st time using Rover. Thank you for this positive experience!”
5. Ethan M.
“Ethan was extremely communicative and my dog had an absolute blast staying with him! He sent multiple pictures and videos throughout the day and was flexible when I had a change of schedule (watched her 5 hours longer than originally planned). When I picked my dog up, she was exhausted and clearly already loved Ethan. I would highly recommend using Ethan for your dog as well!”
6. Philip T.
“Philip was very responsive to my communications leading up to Chloe's stay and during the stay. He sent multiple updates with photos every day which allowed me to relax while I was away. She got plenty of attention and walks! from him and his son. (Chloe slept in son's bed. 😃). I can recommend Philip to take good care of your dog! Thank you Philip!”
7. Ilya V.
“Ilya took exceptional care of Poppy!! She is normally a bit antisocial and skeptical of men, but with Ilya, she really came out of her shell- being social with other dogs and humans! Ilya was so communicative & went above and beyond to ensure Poppy could enjoy her favorite activities - walks, snuggling, sunbathing - he was gentle and kind with her, and she can’t wait for her next holiday with him!”
8. Donna B.
“Donna was very responsive and excellent about sending lots of content of my corgi, Nessie during her stay. Nessie looked like she had loads of fun on the many park outings Donna took her on. Look forward to leaving Nessie with Donna again!”
9. Lydia A.
“Lydia is amazing and I am so glad I was able to book a stay with her! I was very nervous about leaving my 2.5yr old, Hank, with someone new to him for the first time, but it could not have gone better, all thanks to Lydia. I could tell from the many pics she sent me while I was out of town that Hank was having a great time and he had completely fallen for her. Her regular updates were really reassuring and allowed me to focus on the purpose for my trip out of town. Lydia is just great and I hope I'll be able to board Hank with her again.”
10. Jim W.
“I said I would never leave my dog with anyone…but Jim really eased my mind. From drop off to pick up Jim was in constant communication and sent us photos and videos of our Bear having fun. I really cant thank him enough.”
11. Jo R.
“Jo was wonderful. My little alabaster who is about 11 months was with her for 11 days and he came back full of energy and as sweet as ever. They sent me pictures each day of him playing and lounging with her pup Luna. So adorable. At first, Luna was a little put off by alabaster, but over a few hours she warmed up to him to the point that they cuddled and slept together many nights (so adorable). Could not recommend Jo more :) she will be my future sitter of Alabaster anytime I leave.”
12. Sarah S.
“Sarah is wonderful! She was lovely, responsible, and fabulous with our pup who stayed with her for a whole week, and she was perfect in her communication with me. Our dog can sometimes be a little difficult on leash, and she managed him beautifully. She really helped me feel comfortable while away, in not needing to worry at all about my dog. She was also incredibly flexible as it was better for me to drop him off a day earlier than initially planned. I fully and completely recommend Sarah (though I don't really want to because I know she'll become hard to book!).”
13. Christie & Daniel W.
“Christie and Daniel were soo good!! Not only did they take good care of our Bleu, keeping her loved and occupied. More importantly, they were so proactive and helpful when Bleu got sick. They were excellent! It was so peace of mind when we were away knowing Bleu was in good hands.”
14. Katerine M.
“Katerine always takes fantastic care of my puppy! He is always excited when we get to her house and he plays all day with Coco! My puppy is in good hands☺️”
15. Matias D.
“Matias was super responsive and took her on many walks. I think she enjoyed her time there, and when I picked her up, she was clearly comfortable in his home and with him. Matias was very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and I appreciated that he offered to have a meet and greet before her stay.”
16. Millie B.
“Millie is great! She’s super communicative and was flexible when I reached out to change our plans one day before. We appreciated the text updates and pics, but were especially grateful that she took great care of Miso. Miso is sometimes a little slow to warm up to a new space, but she had a great day with Millie!”
17. Viktorija B.
“Viktorija is the kindest and most loving person in every way one can ask for. I couldn’t have imagined a better caretaker for my dog and I will absolutely turn to her whenever I need ❤️ She has my strongest recommendation!”
18. Michelle S.
“Harry had the best time with Michelle! She sent tons of pictures and kept me up to date on how he was doing (he made himself right at home). He got plenty of walks and was fed and tired when we picked him up.”
19. Mills F.
“Mills and his girlfriend were wonderful with my pooch from the moment we arrived. They sent pictures regularly and genuinely seemed to love and understand dogs. I was a little nervous, leaving mine there since we hadn’t met before, but Mill was reassuring and warm, and my dog was very happy the whole time there.”
20. Kelsey & Ian P.
“Kelsey & Ian took great care of my dog Bill! He’s a very sensitive guy and they gave him lots of love and attention. I got daily updates and pictures, and our dog was very happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Kelsey & Ian for your dogsitting needs.”
