“Thank you so much for taking great care of my floofster!! He has been knocked out since we got home 😂😂 Thank you for the photos and updates all weekend!!! I will definitely use you again in the future and recommend you to everyone!!!”
“This was our practice night for a much longer stay later this month. Flexible for drop off/pick up times and they sent several photos of Olive throughout the stay. I feel comfortable leaving Olive with Andrea for 2 weeks while we are on vacation.”
“Pros: we got our dogs back in one piece and they seemed to be fed and happy, so I guess I can’t complain too much. Negatives: *this is just constructive criticism and left 5 stars because I don’t want to affect the rover’s status as they seem to have many other happy reoccurring clients.* the only pitfall for us was that we only received 2 updates on our dogs 7 day stay and we had to ask for them. We only received 1 pic of each dog. This left us with a bit of anxiety while we had limited service and out of the country. So we would have liked more unsolicited updates just to ease our minds.”
“Wendy was amazing in the care of our 2 elderly boxers. They were loved and cared for, as if it were by us. She was great in giving updates on the dogs, and giving medication at specific times. Was able to enjoy my trip, knowing they were in great hands.”
“Angela was a blessing! We were gone for 10 days and being new to the area we were so worried about leaving our pups. She took the very best care of our pups and they seemed very happy when we picked them up! We will definitely used Angela again and we highly recommend her. She is very loving and experienced and we could not be more pleased.”
“Amy was wonderful taking care of our dog! It was our first time boarding her anywhere so I was a little anxious but I didn't have to worry at all. Amy gave consistent updates and our dog had an absolute blast! I could tell she was very loved. We will be booking again next time we go on vacation!”
“Lori was absolutely fabulous with our fur baby!! The day we dropped off our baby he developed an ear infection. She had no problems giving him his ear drops from the vet. We received daily pics and updates on his daily activities. We would highly recommend Lori taking care of your loved one. We will definitely use her again!!”
“Sammy was a happy boy during his visit. When we picked him up he looked great. We appreciated the pictures Michelle sent. It was wonderful knowing Sammy was in a safe and caring home.”
“Angelo is an exceptional pet sitter who truly goes the extra mile. He creates a calm, comfortable space for every pet in his care, and his thoughtful updates are incredibly reassuring. It’s clear he genuinely cares—his attention, kindness, and dedication make all the difference. I always felt completely at ease when our Bella stayed with him. Highly recommend!”
“I cannot say enough great things! We had to go out of town for 5 days, and they took amazing care of my dog. From the updates and photos to the love and attention they gave him, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. When we picked him up, he was happy, well cared for, and clearly treated like part of the family. It made being away so much less stressful. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my baby while we were away! 🐾❤️”
“Finally, our pup Apawlo found a second home. Roland is awesome, we received regular updates and took care of Apawlo better than we would have taken care of him We will be regulars”
“Penny was Well Cared for, Happy and Content while staying with Brandon and his family. Stayed in communication at all times. She also had a buddy to play with that was her size. A perfect fit! Thank you for taking such good care of our baby..... T”
“Sylvia and family took good care of Oreo as if their own. With daily updates like playing in the yard, daily walks or just relaxing. Thanks Sylvia and family for your TLC of Oreo. Definitely will be coming back for your awesome service. Thanks❤️!”
“Mariah and her daughter, Meagan, are amazing! I so love bringing Cody to their home! He is so loved and cared for, and even came home with a bag of toys n' treats. They really go above and beyond!”
“Elezha did an awesome job with my dog! I have never seen him connect with someone so fast. She kept me updated the whole time & gave him plenty of walks. Will definitely book again for future needs!”
“Max got attached to Ms Heather during his stay, which is exactly what we hoped to see. He was happy to be home but in great spirits. So nice to have a safe and friendly environment to leave him in while out of town.”
“Nami had a wonderful stay with Ashley! She made sure I was aware of how Nami was by sending me pictures and videos. I also love Ashley’s genuine warmth! Definitely will be coming back.”
“Carrie was beyond incredible—truly a lifesaver! She stepped in without hesitation for our last-minute emergency and took phenomenal care of our 2-year-old dog. This was his very first time away from home, and she made him feel safe, loved, and completely comfortable from day one. What meant the world to us was that she kept us updated every single day with pictures and messages, which gave us so much reassurance and peace of mind. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals are unmatched. We knew our pup was not just cared for, but truly cherished. If you’re looking for someone you can trust 100% with your pet, Carrie is the one—no hesitation, no second thoughts. Highly, highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍”
“Estephania was great with my fur baby. She provided regular updates and included him in their family activities. Would highly recommended and will use her again in the future.”

Alvin dog parents share their Rover experiences
Wendy was excellent! I loved the frequent updates and pictures/videos of my dog, so I felt like I knew exactly how his time away from us was going. She took great care of our dog. This was our first time using Rover, and she made the process easy and comfortable. Great communication!
Mrs. Debbie and Mr. Mike took such amazing care of our 3 dogs, one of which is a 12yr senior. They showered them in love, treats, play time and plenty of a/c to stay cool. Our senior dog has never been so comfortable with a sitter before but he enjoyed his time with them immensely. We received plenty of updates, pictures, and videos while we were away. We could not recommend another sitter more than Mrs. Debbie and Mr. Mike. They truly treated our dogs with as much love and care as they do with their own dog Birdie. We will be reaching out to them first for any future stays for our dogs.
