5. Na-young K.
“First time using Na-Young and could not be happier. She is very personable and we were glad to have her watch a member of our family. Daily pics show how happy our dog is staying with her. I will use her to watch our dog again. Thanks, Na-Young!”
6. Denise C.
“Denise is amazing! She was super welcoming to me and my pup from the moment we walked in for a meet and greet. My dog takes a bit of patience to warm up to someone new, but it was almost instantaneous with Denise. She felt right at home with tons of toys and attention. Denise also sent multiple pictures each day my dog stayed over. I'd be very happy to recommend Denise to anyone looking for a safe and warm sitter.”

15. Tammi S.
“Tammi might be one of the best dog-sitters we've ever used. She was so attentive to Indy, even offered to (and did) give him a bath with some medicated shampoo when she noticed he seemed itchy. I cannot over-emphasize how responsible and kind she was. You can trust that she will take excellent care of your fur baby with excellent communication.”

20. Rachel M.
“We can’t thank Rachel enough! She made us feel comfortable from when we dropped off Sophie all the way through our vacation to picking her up. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Sophie was well taken care of! She sent pictures, videos, and messages so we knew what Sophie was doing and she maintained the training we were working on with Sophie!! We definitely found the best when we found Rachel on Rover!”
