“Thank you Michelle for taking Pumpkin over the holidays! Michelle took great care of our 1.5 yr old dog and was very communicative and helpful coordinating logistics. Highly recommend - thank you again!”

“Renee and Christopher were fantastic sitters!! Lenny had access to a backyard and so much attention. I got regular updates and photos and felt so much peace of mind.”

“David was great! He clearly cared for dog and our needs to make us comfortable. His home was cozy and quiet which for our dog who is anxious was a blessing to keeping her happy and settled. Our dog is on medication and David took care of this for us with no concerns or issues. We also happened to have a very hectic schedule, David was flexible and easy to coordinate with which really made the process so much easier! Thanks, David!”

“Sky had a wonderful time with Cristina and Ernesto—she was truly on her own little vacation, treated like a queen! I’m so grateful for the incredible care they gave her while I was away. They kept me updated every day with photos and messages, and their communication was outstanding. At the end, I was treated with a delicious brownie and Sky got her cookies. I highly recommend them!”

“Thank you so much!! She’s a great sitter and my puppy loved her. Very sweet and took care of my puppy while I had an emergency. Please don’t hesitate to book her!”

“Took very good care of our dog for the week. Sent us lots of photos and updates. Followed our instructions well and did a very good job keeping our dog brushed and clean!”

“Shelley was a wonderful host for our pup, Pepper. It was our first time leaving Pepper with a sitter and he had a great time. Shelley was attentive and accommodating of all his needs (we’re still working on leash walks and some reactivity). Shelley sent lots of updates and photos/videos of the fun adventures they had together. Additionally, Shelley was willing to meet up beforehand to make sure Pepper was comfortable. She also arranged playdates with her friend’s corgi who was a perfect playmate for Pepper. Overall, we really enjoyed working with Shelley, and Pepper came back happy and relaxed.”

“Terry and her husband were so kind and caring. My dog is often anxious in new situations and it was so nice to see her at ease in the photos and playing with Terry's dog! I will definitely book again.”

“I'm so, so happy I found Marielle! She did a wonderful job caring for my pup Aku while I was out of the country for a week. She was responsive and accommodating, and she sent the best updates of Aku and her own dog Red getting along. We even got a sweet card and photos of Aku during his stay with Marielle! I 1000% recommend Marielle and will continue to book her again if I need to! You're the best!”

“As always, Deuce had the most amazing time with Sonia and her little pack! Sonia was super responsive, sent loads of pictures, and set our minds at ease that Deuce was thriving at her place :)”

“Thanks for taking great care of Pluto! I appreciated your fast responses, many photos & daily updates. Thanks for making sure Pluto had plenty of walks & was well fed!”

“My kitten had the best time and I had the best experience with everything! Right from the first visit to the pickup and drop-off, Laxmi was so accommodating and helpful. I received so many pictures and updates and gnocchi got comfortable so quickly. It was my first time boarding him and I couldn't have had a better experience than this. Highly recommend Laxmi!”

“Our doodle Mia had a great time with Laura. We truly appreciated the updates throughout the day and how thorough Laura was to make sure all of Mia’s needs are met. We will definitely book Laura again in the future.”

“Yasmim and Kaline went above and beyond to make sure that Jack felt comfortable and secure while I visited my family. Jack has bad separation anxiety, and I really appreciated their efforts. They kept me well informed with frequent messages, photos, and videos, and I could see that Jack was chilling and relaxed. They even captured his goofy smile! Jack takes several medications, and they dosed him on time and without complaint from him. I highly recommend them!”
“Lexie had an amazing time with Randy!! Randy sent me wonderful pics of her everyday going hiking and to the beach with all her dog pal friends!! Randy was so attentive, responsive and professional. Absolutely stellar experience and I can’t wait for the next opportunity to board Lexie with Randy. Thank you so much for giving me peace of mind while she was with you so I could truly enjoy my vacation. 10/10!!!!”


“Brianna (Baiyu) took wonderful care of my pup, Muffin! She was highly communicative and kind. Most importantly, my pup was happy and content when she came back to me.”

“Grayson can be a pip!! It takes her a while to warm up. Fabiano listened and watched her verbal/physical cues, and earned her trust! She loves Fabiano, and so do we! Recommend A++++”

“This was our first experience with a Rover pet sitter and it was a great experience. Christina took excellent care of our blind dog, Taffy, and made her feel comfortable and loved. Christina sent updates, photos and videos throughout the stay and it was clear that Taffy had made a new friend. We would not hesitate to book Christina again and Taffy is looking forward to her next visit!”

“Uriel was great with my dog Duke! He watched him over the holiday. Uriel was very flexible with pick up and drop off too. He even dropped Duke off when I got busy. Uriel sent me regular updates, and Duke came back tired and happy. Thanks again Uriel!”

As always, our normally-anxious chi mix Tig had the BEST time with Cindy! Cindy is so caring and patient with her, takes her for incredible walk adventures, is always accommodating of Tig’s constant needs for pets and belly rubs, and she keeps us updated with awesome photos and recaps every day. We’re so thankful for Cindy and we always rest easy on vacation knowing our pup is in great hands with her. 😍

Guidi was fantastic to work with! She was highly communicative throughout Gigi’s stay and regularly sent photos and videos, which gave me great peace of mind. Gigi is very reactive to other dogs, and Guidi was incredibly understanding and adaptable to her specific needs. She took the necessary precautions to ensure a safe and positive experience for both herself and Gigi, which I truly appreciated. Guidi was a joy to work with, and I would absolutely reach out to her again to care for Gigi in the future. Thank you, Guidi!

Mmezi was incredible with my difficult rescue pit, I am so happy to find him! He took the time to get my dog to get to know him and even took him on a morning hike. It normally takes him a few days to trust people but he was already getting belly rubs on the first day!! Mmezi was also easy to communicate and sent photos during the stay so I felt relaxed while he boarded. Thanks sooo much :) :)

Juan was incredible to work with and was great with Pepper. He was very communicative and sent great photos to keep us updated about Pepper’s stay. We had to book some last minute arrangements and Juan was very accommodating and understanding. His obvious priority was making sure Pepper had a good time while we were gone. Book with Juan, he’s amazing!
