Edward is the best sitter that I have ever had on Rover. I had a nightmare experience with another Rover sitter in the past and my vacation was full of worries. This is my second experience with Edward taking care of my Prince and immediately my dog ran to him and didn’t show any signs of distress. It felt like I was leaving him with a family member. Dogs can sense good people and you definitely will not regret it if your fur baby gets to be in Edward’s home. Thank you for sharing pictures and allowing me to feel comfortable being away from my baby. I definitely appreciate everything and hopefully you’ll be able to always be my Prince’s bro when I need to leave him behind. Blessings to you Edward!

My dog is eccentric and has his little quirks. Arthur was welcoming and inquisitive; it’s obvious he deeply cares for animals. My dog Wolfgang came home relaxed and peaceful, which tells me the environment was calm and nurturing. Excellent communication-an ideal experience. Thank you, Arthur!

Mariia has been the best dog sitter ever. She took care of our pup with so much love and treated her like her own. Nyx looked healthy and happy when brought back. She sent constant communication, videos, pics and kept her clean. Couldn’t have asked for anything more and am recommending to friends of mine!

Mia is fantastic. She is very considerate, accommodating as well as incredibly responsive and communicative. She promised that I would feel as if I were right by my dog while I was gone and she certainly delivered! She makes sure to give your furry friend the love and attention they need and I wouldn’t ask any other to look after Duchess.

Emily is amazing! She took such wonderful care of my golden retriever, Pumpkin, while my family and I were out of town! She kept us up to date with text and photos of Pumpkin throughout the experience, giving us that much more peace that she was in the right hands. Highly recommend Emily for watching over your furry friends! Great work, and thank you kindly again, Emily!

Andrew and his family took such great care of our skittish rescue dachshund who had never been kenneled nor left with strangers before. Andrew was VERY responsive and kept us up to date on how our little guy was doing over the five days. Andrew was kind enough to agree to a quick meet and greet a month prior to make sure both our dogs got along (thankfully they did as Andrew’s dog is super sweet). We will definitely look to Andrew and his family to watch over our pet again in the future.

It was our first time using Rover. We were able to do a meet and greet prior to boarding our dog with Jess and Max. Quickly, we were convinced that our Cruz would be a good fit with them. I dropped Cruz off without a glitch, Max and Jess were very responsive during our vacation. We received daily updates and pictures. We would highly recommend them.
