“Shaun is our #1 preferred Rover! He and his family have taken such great care of our giant (95lb) doodle on multiple occasions for many days! He gets walks, playtime and cuddles. 10/10 recommend!”
“Paul is excellent! Dunley is a 5-year-old lab/cattle dog with high energy. Paul made sure Dunley got enough exercise, walks, and plenty of fetch. He came back happy. I will definitely use Paul again!”
“A A+ experience. My dog is an 2 year old extremely hyper rough playing Schnoodle. Was very nervous if Jenny could handle him with this being the first time he was left with a stranger for 2 days and his rough puppy age personality. I was amazed when i received multiple texts updating me how well he was doing and how well he reacted to her two little boys. Sometimes the intelligence of a dog is questioned, however, I know they all can detect an environment that is tense or without any sense of love. Based on the way our Baxter’s behavior was right the beginning, its speaks for itself. This was a great relief for us knowing we have place where he could go in the future where he’s happy and treated the same as if he’s with us.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to have Xinzhi take care of Ruby over the weekend! Ruby had a blast hanging out with Xinzhi’s dog Bella. Xinzhi took great care of Ruby and she felt at home with her hospitality! She kept me updated through out the weekend posting pictures and videos of Ruby, taking her for long walks and outdoor plays and ensuring Ruby was comfortable just like being at home. I did not worry a bit about Ruby! I will use Xinzhi again for Ruby!”
“Gail did a great job with Raven. We usually are worried about whether Raven will adjust to a new sitter, but Gail quickly sent us pictures and a note letting us know how quickly she bonded with Raven and how calm she had become.”
“Amrit was fantastic! Super communicative and kind. I could tell our cat was well taken care of for the week he spent with Amrit. Amrit was also very flexible and understanding with changes in plans. HIGHLY recommend and would 1000p book with him again!”
“Karina spent a full week caring for my dog J. They were a great fit together .. and I was very pleased with how much she enjoyed her time with him. Abundant communication throughout each day: pictures, videos, and notes about activities, and how he was adjusting. It was a great comfort to know he was being well cared for, and given so much positive attention & love. Truly above and beyond my expectations. I am sure J is looking forward to seeing Karina again.!!”
“Jesse took great care of our girl! He text updates at least twice a day & followed our instructions to a tee. I definitely recommend him & will reach out next time we need a sitter. Thanks again, Jesse!”
“Lisa is amazing! She did a great job keeping us updated with pics & videos. Our dog has never looked this happy when we’ve gone away. She kept her active with walks & playtime with her pup. Highly recommend!”
“Enzo seemed well taken care of when we picked him up and it looked like he enjoyed his time with the other dogs. Jing sent photos and video of Enzo to let us see how he was doing during his stay.”
“Cherie and her family were great hosts to our Tater tot! Sent photos and updated us throughout his stay. Felt very comfortable with leaving him and would definitely re-book. Thank you Cherie!”
“My pups loved Jessica! It was my first time using Rover for our 9 day trip and everything went so smooth. My mini doodle is usually skittish but he went right to her and from the daily photos we received, he loved cuddling and staying by her side. He had plenty of other small doggies to play with and get his energy out. Thanks Jessica for making boarding not so scary!”
“Sayak was great with my fearful pup! He asked a lot of questions about my dog's habits and needs and was super responsive to messages. I felt reassured that my dog was safe with responsible caretakers and he was treated like family during his stay.”
“I truly can not recommend Jaclynn enough. I recently rescued my dog (who is a puppy and has high energy). It was my first time leaving my pup, Frankie, for an extended period of time (and using Rover). After searching high and low through Rover, I thankfully came across Jaclynn. She was AMAZING my entire trip and relieved every bit of anxiety I had. I received so many pictures and updates on how Frankie was doing. Jaclynn even trained Frankie while we were gone and inspired me to get buttons for her to communicate. Frankie was sad to leave (honestly lol). Frankie will be seeing Jaclynn and Andre until the end of time. I was also sent home with fresh eggs from her farm, a toy that Frankie loved, and a printed picture. I will happily drive an hour knowing the love and care she provided for my fur baby. The absolute best!!!”
“Alyssa took great care of Oreo. She was patient, gentle, and punctual. She kept us informed on how Oreo was doing so we could feel comfortable being away from Oreo. We will definitely ask her to sit Oreo again!”
“We booked Jackie to watch our dog Finnegan during our wedding weekend and a nearby venue. Jackie was so pleasant to communicate with and she shared updates and photos during Finnegan’s stay. She even brought him to our venue so that we could take some photos with him. Finnegan was well cared for!”
“Areli and family took excellent care of our pup while we were away for a few days. So thankful to know that our puppy was in good hands - especially since this was our first time leaving her. They made sure she felt comfortable and had lots of fun! Highly recommend to anyone who might be feeling anxious about leaving their dog for the first time - they’ll be in great hands with this sweet family!”

Karina is such a wonderful sitter for our Preston! She is very hands-on, sends lots of great updates and wonderful pictures. I see lots of walks, including trips to the dog park, outdoor time, cuddles, so much love and attention, we couldn’t ask for more. Our boy stayed for 2 weeks while we were gone and I had total peace of mind he was being well cared for. She is also very responsive and will treat your dog as if he’s her own. Thank you again, Karina, for another great experience!
