“Marquita was VERY VERY AMAZING with our Tootie girl. She made my dog feel safe and comfortable. She also made us feel comfortable leaving our Tootie girl with her while we were away. I highly recommend mind her! Marquita was very welcoming and made us feel like we were leaving our dog in very good hands. Can’t express how blessed to have her as a dog sitter. 10 Star in my opinion.”

“Noemi was super nice and very helpful which took our case only booked one day before. And she sent A LOT of pictures during caring and we all loved that!! Our dog played in her huge backyard, walked twice, played ball…seeing our dog playing really well was very sweet and relieving! Definitely recommended.”

“We loved having Olga watch our puppy, Penelope. Penelope is highly energetic and Olga had no issue matching her energy. We had a last minute engagement and Olga was there for us at 9pm the night before. It was amazing.”

About: I worked as a veterinary assistant in a fear free clinic for 3 years. I have had and been around animals my entire life. I have no problem giving meds or catering to your fur babies specific needs. My boyfriend Devin also sits with me so your pet rarely be left alone. I currently work as a restaurant manager so I am gone for about 6 to 8 hours a day in weekends. I have a pet camera that I can keep on all day while I'm not here. I also have a neighbor that lives across the street that has come to do walks if I have a long shift or something. Until recently I had a senior pit mix,and currently have a DMH cat that is about 13 years old and a DSH cat that is about 2 years old. My animals are my children and I will treat your animals as if they were my own. I can and will (if allowed) take pictures too!
“I’m so thrilled to have found a safe and happy place for June! She gets so excited when she realizes where the car is going!!! And so happy to see Alli and Mac! I don’t have to worry how the day is going because Alli sends photos and up dates!!!”

“We've had a great experience with JD and Magda! They've treated Gus like he was their own and made him (and us) safe. They are quick to respond with any communication and try their best to be accommodating. Also their two dogs are super friendly and Gus loves having them to play with.”

“Paige and Stephen were welcoming and I felt immediately comfortable leaving my dog with them. I wholeheartedly recommend them and I will be rebooking.”
“Marissa was amazing! We needed dog sitting for a day, she responded right away with availability. The whole time she had our dog, we were getting updates and photos. When we picked our dog up, he wasn’t ready to leave! We will certainly be using her again”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, and had two dogs in Australia (Black Lab and a miniature Cavoodle) before relocating to the US in August last year. My wife and daughter are spending summer back in Aus, so could use a bit of company over the summer, and would love to get my dog fix. My wife and daughter are spending summer back in Australia, so will have a lot of free time on my hands. I work from home full time, in a 2 bedroom apartment. There might be the odd evening/trip to the shops etc where I will be out of the complex, but it will be minimal. I do travel for work, but will know weeks in advance of any travel scheduled. I have a 2 bedroom apartments on the second floor of a complex. There is an off lead dog park in the complex and have direct access to Tampa Bay. I stand up paddle board and happy to take any adventurous pups out on the bay with me.

“Christina was the best candidate for my yorkie during our vacation. I received lots of cute photos on his play journey. He had tons of walks and when I picked him up he showed zero sign of distress. He LOVED his time with her! I will definitely be using her again on the next trip.”

“Willow loved staying with Beata and her family and meeting new friends and spending a lot of time outside running in her large backyard! Beata was very responsive and sent lots of pictures!”

We are so grateful to have found Marquita! Her welcoming and detailed profile initially drew us to her, and she exceeded all of our expectations. She was incredibly kind and patient with our dog’s timid nature, making Ozzy feel safe and comfortable right away. Marquita's kids are the sweetest and so clearly raised with a love and understanding of animals. I loved receiving her photo updates throughout the visit, and her flexibility made drop-off and pick-up completely stress-free. Ozzy came home happy and relaxed. Everything about Marquita and her home environment made any anxiety about leaving our boy disappear. I am super thankful we were lucky enough to connect with Marquita and I highly recommend booking with her!

5 stars! We had an absolutely amazing experience with Olga. She kept us updated throughout the day, and we truly appreciated her clear, thoughtful communication. Our pup was so well cared for and came home very happy. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!

As someone knew to the city and state with a new puppy to boot along with another dog, I was nervous about last minute accommodations. I have found a second home for my Gertie! Coming from an apartment environment, she has a whole yard to run and play in and the hosts are exceptionally great and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend them to anyone. If there are more stars, I would give them to them. I am looking no more for anyone else. Trust me you will be happy and so will your babies.

Kenny takes very good care of my bulldog. His home is perfect with sliders from his office to a fenced back yard. His kids are also very good with my dog. They are respectful and playful. I’m happy to have found such a trustworthy home away from home for my dog.

We are SO pleased with Ashleigh and her set up. We have a 70lb puppy who wants to play, run, and cuddle. Check, check and check! Have received many pictures of play/running, and even rest time inside: lying down next to another dog (!). Ashleigh is very genuine and her cheerful and warm attutude with us as owners and with all the dogs is super reassuring, and the pictures prove that our pup is having a playful and balanced time. Ashleigh also helped me navigate the Rover app. MUCH appreciated.

I have long work days and I was very nervous trusting my dog with someone else. From the moment my dog stepped into Eli’s home, I could tell she was comfortable and didn’t have any reservations about her. When I say we are going to her house, she runs to the door and whines until we leave. Eli sends pictures throughout the day of their activities and I can tell by how she comes home happy and sleepy that she is well taken care of. Her home is also very clean and has a fenced in yard. I feel grateful to have found a sitter that cares for my dog as if she were her own! I would absolutely recommend her for anybody that has reservations about finding a sitter through Rover.

We've had a great experience with JD and Magda! They've treated Gus like he was their own and made him (and us) safe. They are quick to respond with any communication and try their best to be accommodating. Also their two dogs are super friendly and Gus loves having them to play with.

This is the first time Sparky stayed with someone else for approximately 7 hrs, my husband and I felt so nervous, but Ashton sent me the picture and video of him playing with Ashton's dog, which made us feel much better. Thank you so much for taking good care of him. I will definitely take Sparky there again.
