“We just picked up our dogs and they’re SO tired! No weird dog smell and they seem so happy. We got pictures daily and loved to see our babes having fun. Very pleased with Rachael and fam and we’ll for sure use them again. 10/10 referring to everyone!”


“Very easy process of meeting and booking with Sara. I could tell my dog, Baxter, loved the stay because he was pooped as soon as I brought him home. I don't need an overnight sitter very often, but will return again if so.”


“Angela and her family were amazing with our sweet pup! Not only did she take wonderful care of him, but he had a great time and it felt like they actually enjoyed having him. Finn clearly felt relaxed and safe in their home and under their care, which isn’t always the case. Angela also did some leash training with him and taught him how to use their doggie door! It was a fantastic experience and I will re-book with Angela anytime I have a need for Finn. I couldn’t be happier with Angela and her sweet family! Thank you, Angela!”


“Wow! I was blown away by the level of personal care and professionalism Sarah offered! She was quick to respond every time I reached out before my booking, and also while she took care of my dog. She took photos and gave me daily updates. When we picked our dog up, she came out to meet us with all of his things, and she even had photos and a gift for us! I will definitely use Sarah again!”


“I definitely am delighted and impressed by the care my Sophie Cuddles received during her first stay with Antoinette! Our regular dog nanny had a health crisis that unexpectadly necessitated a hospital stay right before we left for a long planned for trip across the country. In our area, it is difficult to find great in-a-home care for dogs. Luckily for me and my senior dog Sophie, I found rover.com AND Antoinette. We had a meet and greet with Antoinette and Max, her senior dog, at their home. That sealed the deal for us. Sophie loved the home, the fenced yard, Max and Antoinette. During our trip, Antoinette sent photos and updates to keep us informed. Sophie was great when we picked her up after our journey. Quite frankly, I couldn’t have been more pleased or more impressed with Antoinette and the care she provided. Absolutely a 5 Star experience! I highly recommend Antoinette. I know I will be making plans to have Sophie stay with her again.”


“Elaine and her family were awesome at caring for our 16 year old dachshund, Harley. She is quick to communicate and provided daily updates and photos which put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend Elaine to anyone looking for a sitter for their dog!”


“Aleah is an absolute gem! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog, Susan, while I was out of town. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when some major plans changed on my end and never once missing a beat. From the very start, Aleah went above and beyond to ensure Susan was not only cared for, but truly loved. Before the stay, we did a meet and greet and a plus was that we also got to meet Aleah’s dog, and the two became instant best friends. It was such a bonus knowing Susan would have a companion to play with the whole time. Aleah had previously arranged to watch my dog independently but they hit it off and we adjusted the plans to help the friendship flourish. Throughout my trip, Aleah kept me updated with the most amazing photos of their adventures together. It made me feel completely at ease and totally stress-free. Aleah is kind, responsible, and clearly loves what she does. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter who will treat your dog like family. Thank you, Aleah!”


“Sheri was great. She made sure to send us pictures daily while also making sure our dog got a ton of exercise and attention. Our chocolate lab Daisy and her chocolate lab Sam got along great. She also made sure to clean our dog's ears every day for us since she was having issues with a yeast infection from playing in the ocean. I would recommend her for everybody. ”


“Absolutely amazing, her communication was amazing and she was so friendly and understanding. She consistently sent me pictures and videos of my kitten which helped so much with my nerves about leaving him. I will forever recommend Katie as a pet sitter!”


“Buddy loved his time at Avery's house! Avery was very communicative and sent videos/photos during his stay there. I really appreciate that she did a meet and greet beforehand and asked such thorough questions to make sure she knew as much about Buddy as she could before his stay. Buddy looks forward to his next visit with Avery and Theo!”

“Brooke is the best, and Hugo loves staying with her and Lambeau her very sweet and gentle dog. Hugo is very attached to me but this time dropping him off with Brooke, he ran in her house and never looked back. She also sends lots of pictures and videos!! Thank you Brooke”

“I was blown away by April's positive attitude and dedication to caring for my golden retriever. She meticulously created a safe, pack-like environment where the dogs felt at home, and the areas were exceptionally clean. Even more impressive were her plans to enhance her already wonderful outdoor space. As a side note, April is a certified dog trainer. Shortly after dropping off my dog and running errands in town, I noticed her diligently and patiently leash-training my dog during a walk, as my GPS took me back past her location. April never mentioned this task on Rover or in person; she simply did it on her own time, free of charge, without boasting. Her quiet integrity and humility are extraordinarily impressive. Best Rover experience so far!”



“Jennifer was great with my dog, Cooper. He had a great time and slept for hours after he got home...a good sign of a good play :) We were gone for a week and I continually received pictures and videos of Cooper playing and having fun. She is an obvious dog lover and takes very good care of them. I would definitely recommend Jennifer and would use her again in the future.”



“Christi did a great job taking care of our dog Abby for 10 days. She was knowledgeable about dogs and took great care to make Abby feel welcome and safe. Her daily photos and messages were much appreciated and helped put us at ease. We would definitely request Christi again.”


“We found Kelsey and honestly feel like we hit the jackpot. From the start, she took the time to get to know us and our pups, Lexi and Charlie, making sure it was a good fit—and that little extra care made us feel totally at ease leaving them during our honeymoon. She made the whole process effortless, stayed in great communication, and sent us the perfect amount of updates—just enough to ease our dog-parent hearts without making us too jealous that our dogs were clearly living their best lives. The photo updates were a highlight (Lexi’s modeling career may have peaked). The best part? Lexi and Charlie came home happy, tired, and weirdly… better behaved? Not sure what kind of magic Kelsey worked, but we’re here for it. Her home is lovely, and her sweet dogs made great vacation buddies for ours. We’ve already told our family how amazing she is, and there’s no question—we’ve found our go-to pup-sitter. 10/10 would book again. – Jermaine & Steve”


“Amber was awesome and super flexible when my flight got cancelled TWICE and she had to keep my pup an extra day. She sent plenty of pics and updates. Bailey loved her time there and we will be using Amber again in the future! ??”


“We had a fantastic experience with Jory. He took excellent care of our dog, Stella, and we were impressed by his professionalism and kindness. Jory kept us updated with regular photos and messages, which made us feel at ease knowing our bulldog was in good hands. Our dog seemed very happy and well-cared-for when we returned. We highly recommend Jory to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. Thank you, Jory, for taking such wonderful care of Stella! 🙂”
