I don’t trust many people with my girl. This is the second babysitter, hands-down that is the best on this site Brooklyn came back, tired, happy and she was well taken care of. Thank you so much we will be seeing you again.

So glad we found Dina. We have a senior fur baby that we were very concerned with leaving her with someone who may not understand the care for senior dogs. Dina was great! She was very accommodating and understanding of our needs. I would highly recommend her. We will be using her again.

Christian is a terrific sitter ... very flexible with issues, friendly and easy to deal with. We gave him some last minute notice about health issues with Dodger and he took it easily in stride. Dodger loves him, which is a seal of approval!

Our first time using Rover, we found Debra and we are so happy we did! We felt immediately at ease when we dropped Lucy off, knowing she was in the best hands. During this time, Lucy was in heat, and Debra was so understanding and helpful with this! It’s pretty incredible how understanding and flexible she was having Lucy in her home. Also, Lucy got to play with her other dogs and she had the best time. Next time we need to board Lucy, we will want to use Debra again because she is the best!

Lesa worked wonders with our shy dog, bringing her out of her shell in a way we never thought possible. The patience and understanding she displayed was truly remarkable. Since then, our dog has been thriving—more confident, playful, and visibly happier. It's evident that Lesa’s genuine connection and efforts have had a lasting, positive impact. We are immensely grateful for the transformation and highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a caring and skilled pet sitter.

Anna was so great with Lincoln! She was very communicative and sent frequent picture updates to let me know that he was having a good stay. It was such a nice feeling to know that our dog was in good hands :)

I was worried about leaving Penny because she is very clingy, but she was fine! Vanessa took great care of her, and even allowed Penny to sleep with her. I’m not sure Penny wanted to come home. We will definitely leave Penny with Vanessa again.

We could not have asked for a more attentive, caring and communicative person to take care of our family dog! Teri consistently provided photos, videos and updates of Luna during her stay and we could tell Luna was having the best time. Truly a home away from home for our pup with separation anxiety. We appreciate you Teri and could not recommend her more!!!

Jade and her boyfriend were wonderful sitters for our dog, Butters, while we were in vacation. Butters had a wonderful time playing with their cats and came back happy, clean, and looking well rested from her own vacation.

Betsy was magnificent. One of our dogs was very difficult and cried into the late evening. Betsy was great dealing with this dog's emotional problems which I didn't expect. I consulted a dog trainer about this and won't board this dog until her problems are resolved. Other than that the stay during the day was wonderful for our two dogs. Betsy provides pictures and her two little dogs are great playmates for our dogs. Her back yard is expansive and she keeps it flea and tick free.

Jodie was awesome with Andrei. He seemed right at home immediately and loved the nice spacious fenced in yard. Jodie was very attentive, made sure she knew what my dog's routine was and what he needed while he was there. Best Rover sitter!

I left my puppy Neo with Aime and John for a week. They took absolutely great care of him. Neo loved staying with them. I was kept updated with pictures. He was exercised regularly (play and walks). They gave me some pointers to improve his walking too. Neo had plenty of room and was happy and safe throughout his stay. Would definitely board him with them again.

Cori is an amazing cat sitter! She has her own cat named Griffin who is just as kind and patient. My kitten hadn’t gotten much exposure being around other cats so I really appreciated her first interactions being with another friendly and calm cat. Cori gave plenty of check in’s and sent the most adorable videos and pictures that made me feel like my cat was with a family friend or right down the street. This was my first time using a cat sitter and Rover and I would 10/10 recommend!
