“Hunter had a great overnight stay with John. John took him on several walks and made sure he was fed and comfortable. Our dog sometimes gets anxious and John knew how to calm him. John gave us regular updates and photos. We appreciated the reporting for Hunter's very first overnight with him. TY John!”
“We were very happy with our dogs stay with Andrew! We got many updates throughout the day and our dog got a lot of walks. She seemed very happy when we picked her up!”
“Christina was amazing! I booked last minute and she was eager to take care of Beru for the weekend. She sent lots of photo updates. Beru has some quirks and Christina was more than capable and happy to accommodate Beru’s personality. Would 100% book with her again!”
“Our dog had a wonderful time and could not have been happier or better cared for. Stefan and his family really love and understand dogs! A+++++ would definitely recommend highly!”
“Andreas took such wonderful care of our small doodle. He seems to genuinely love dogs, and our pup had a great time staying with him. He also sent along many photos and updates of their day. 10/10!”
“Ashley and her family took great care of our dog Rigby for a week. We received lots of happy pics and updates, and he always seemed very content. Drop-off and pick-up were smooth/easy and her communication was great. Would highly recommend Ashley, and will certainly plan to book with her in the future.”

“Miranda was a great caregiver to our 2 dogs. She was communicative throughout the stay and very responsive. Dogs seemed comfortable from the start! Thanks for your care, Miranda!”
“My pup Lyla had a fantastic stay with Yick-Hong and his wife for a week! All the pictures they sent me she looked so happy and relaxed. She even was sleeping on her back because she was so comfortable (vulnerable position for dogs). They took her on walks to new areas which she loves and even ran with her because they could tell she enjoyed it. They also provided detailed daily updates and were responsive to any messages I sent. I will definitely have Lyla stay with them again!”
“Ivis was fantastic! Ivis and her family gave our dog Pepper so much love and attention while we were away. She sent us updates and photos and dropped Pepper off for us! Will definitely use her services again!”
“March took great care of my dog, Hatley!! He took him for walks on wooded trails and sent picture updates. Hatley looked very comfortable and happy at his house. Thanks, March!”
“Aurora took our dog for his first rover experience. She was very communicative and sent pictures of my happy pup. She eased our fears of leaving him with a new family. We'd love to utilize her again if the need arises!”
“Yesika is another parent for Sophie, whenever I take Sophie she just goes with Yesika and forgets all about me - is there a better testament to Yesika for the care she gives??!! 😃”
“Mia & David took excellent care of our dog. They were very attentive to her needs and sent regular updates. She clearly felt very comfortable with them quickly. Look forward to working with them again in the future and highly recommend their care to others!”
Arlington pet parents share their Rover experiences
I had a great experience. Bok was excellent at communicating and sending photos and updates, and took excellent care of my dog Gatsby. Bok was very punctual and at the same time accommodating when my flight was delayed. My dog was clearly happy to to stay with Bok and his loving family, I could tell it from all the photos, and I felt that Gatsby liked it so much that he was even a bit reluctant to leave😅 I will be happy to use Bok’s services again. Totally recommend it!
Aysegul and her husband took amazing care of our cat, Momo. She had a wonderful time and actually relaxed, played, and ate - all things that are very unusual for her when we travel. Aysegul shared several updates and adorable photos of Momo throughout the day, which really put us at ease and made it so much easier knowing she was doing well. We highly recommend them!
Ann was a wonderful sitter for Maisy. We had a complex situation because our dog had some health concerns arise right before her stay but Ann was very reassuring and gave Maisy lots of loving care and support. She is clearly very experienced and had some good insight and resources to offer more generally about our aging dog's situation. Thanks Ann!
Yi took wonderful care of our dog. We got frequent updates and lots of photos on walks and eating. This was our first rover, so our dog got quite stressed being in a new environment but Yi did a really great job of taking care of him during that time. She was very thoughtful for our dog and stress mess he made. We really appreciate her for that.
