“So thankful to Tyler and his adorable boys for taking care of our old dog! He’s not special needs but is in his sunset years and needs extra love and attention. Thank you so much for taking care of my little senior with such love!”


“Daniel and Holly are incredibly organized, care about your dog’s routine and genuinely love animals. My dog had a great stay with their other fur guests. Holly provided me with details and upbeat feedback on how he was doing. 10 out of 10 recommend!”

“Kathy and Brad were fantastic! Definitely true animal lovers ! I was a bit nervous leaving my dog , but they sent multiple pictures. Definitely welcomed cooper in their home ! Next vacation we will be sending him back !”

“Ashlee was very communicate and sweet during Frankie’s stay with her! She was flexible and followed all of our requests. She sent updates with photos each night. Thanks Ashlee!”

“Rebecca & her family are the best with my pup! He gets to be on vacation when I’m on vacation. I love getting updates - he is hanging out with the other pups, playing outside, or snuggly & resting in every one!”

“Stella stayed with Dawn and her family for a few days. Overall, the stay sounds like it went well. She has a nice fenced yard for her to run and play ball. They communicated and sent pictures and were quick to respond to messages.”
“My dog loves going to Stacey’s place. She takes great care of him even with his different eating preferences. Will keep booking with her and definitely recommend!”

“Absolutely amazing, August had a phenomenal time and is super looking forward to his next stay at their house :) He loved his puppy sitter! They were Very responsive, responsible, honest, and sent plenty of wonderful photos and videos of our pup having a fabulous time.”

“Marilynn is THE BEST! Super loving and accommodating to our two dogs. She set pictures and updates to us daily, and included a sweet little note in their things for us to read when we picked them up. If Marilynn would take our somewhat grumpy old guy and our high octane little girl again, we would love it!”

“Willow had a great time! Laura took great care of her and sent a photo every day. She got along well with Diesel, and she ate all her food, which means she was very comfortable at Laura’s house. Knowing she was doing well allowed us to enjoy our vacation more. We will definitely book Laura again!”

“Maria took excellent care of my little guy. He must have played a lot as he slept the entire next day. Pictures and video were greatly appreciated, too.”

“Bud came home happy and tired, which is the perfect combination! Thanks to Fernando for keeping Bud, Matteo and Roland out all day so they could play, play, play! Peace of mind and knowing my Bud is treated so well and accepted like a member of Mary and Fernando's family. Thank you all for another great week with you all!”

“Megan and Richard were so great. So flexible when our plans changed and took great care of Dom. They sent the cutest photos and videos of our little man and we felt great knowing he was in loving hands. They read all of the care instructions and made sure Dom felt safe. We will be back next time we’re in Milwaukee!”

“Amy was a great caretaker for my two dogs who had never stayed with a stranger before. I felt very comfortable leaving them on Amy’s care. She obviously has a lot of experience with dog sitting and cares for every dog as her own! There are no other pets in the house, so my dogs got full attention and love. This is the first time I’ve used Rover and I’m very happy!”
“Overall Soni did a great job! She was super accessible, prompt, and our kitties did great with her. They are anxious and still getting used to each other after we moved in together. They both loved her (huge green flag for anxious kitties!). Bonus that she works remotely and was able to spend extra time here which helped them to not have the attachment issues like they have before. We also had to make a quick request for her to go by the apartment and she went over ASAP after she saw the message which we really appreciated! Big thank you to Soni!”

“I'm a first-time user of Rover and am very glad I did. Now I'm not only a big fan, but plan on being a repeat customer of Rover and Debbie L. She was everything one could hope for in a dog-sitter. We met for a "meet and greet" so she could get to know Jules before taking her in. We discussed how I train Jules, her habits and idiosyncracies, her health and medications - essentially everything I believe a caregiver should want to know. While I was gone, she sent daily pictures of Jules enjoying herself. To be candid, I think Jules was hesitant to return to me. Debbie L was awesome!”

“Michelle made me and my pups feel comfortable instantly! She was so professional and also sent me a ton a cute photos which made me miss my pups a lot less while away.”
