We left our dog Bella with Benjamin and his family for a few days. They took good care of her. Benjamin sent us several photos and kept us informed of her on a daily basis. He would definitely leave Bella in her care the next time we go on vacation. Thanks Benjamin.

Cindy and her family were great! We loved getting daily photos and updates and our pup was well cared for. He didn’t want to come home! Cindy also went above and beyond and labeled all of our pup’s items and even provided a personalized bag for him. We highly recommend Cindy and her family!

April was a wonderful dog sitter! We received regular updates and photos of two puppies. They came home tired and happy and we can’t wait to book with her again.

This is my first time using Rover. com and was very hesistate and nervous to leave my dog "Bella" for such an extended timeframe. My husband and I were going out of the country for 18 days and decided to utilze this service instead of boarding our dog in a kennel for such a long period . Veronica was so accommodating and sweet. She let me schedule a site evaluation of her home prior to dropping Bella off; she assured me that bella would be in good hands, lots of walks and park time. I felt very confident that Bella was in good hands. Bella stayed with Veronica for 20 days, and we were updated almost daily with pictures of Bella in the park, meeting new puppy friends, or just napping around the house. Veronica is so sweet and her family were so welcoming. When I picked Bella up she was clean, and it looked like she had been to the groomers, which was a pleasant surprise and extra perk. I would highly recommend Veronica services and will more than likely send Bella to Veronica's daycare a few times a week. Thank you Veronica for taking care of our fur child!!!

Denise took amazing care of Dory and I would not hesitate to book another stay! She kept me up to date with how my pup was doing and the set up of her house is perfect for dogs. I highly recommend her as both a long and short term sitter.

Thank you so much Na-young for taking care of Panda! She took great care of Panda as if he were her own and he seemed very happy with her (smiling in most of the pics she sent). We were very at ease when we were away and we definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog-sitter. Thank you again Na-young!

Our somewhat shy dog immediately ran right up to Emily and Chris’s door when we arrived for her second stay - a great and comforting sign! Very attentive and communicative. Curie looks forward to her next stay with Emily and Chris!

YJ is fantastic, so attentive and detailed and she answers texts within just a few minutes. This was the first time my dog Cooper had stayed with her and I've booked another stay with her already. The pictures and updates she sends daily about what Cooper is doing are so wonderful and creative. The props she uses are hilarious and it's clear she really loves taking care of people's pets.

JR is a fantastic care giver and a dog lover through and through. JR watched our 2 big dogs (Chesapeake Bay Retriever and a Karakachun) on 2 occasions. He worked with our shy dog to gain her trust and adjusted exercise routines to accommodate our senior dog. JR sent lots of pictures and updates and was very flexible with drop off and pick up times - especially when our train got delayed and our pick up was very late. We will use JR again and again.

George and his wife took excellent care of our pups. The daily pictures helped this nervous pup-parent while we were overseas that they were happy and didn’t miss us too much! Would highly recommend.

Rachel was so sweet with our boxer Sammie. I could tell sammie was comfortable there because she actually ate, which she normally will not do outside of the house. Rachel sends the best pictures and Sammie had a huge smile in each one. We have rebooked with Rachel and always try to book her when we need overnight pet sitting.
