“Kaori provides a great sitting service. She has good communication, is very knowledgeable, and absolutely loves dogs. My dog was not only taken care of, but given lots of love and attention. Highly recommended.”
“Kim and her family were amazing. Our dog was treated with care and as a member of their family. We were kept up to date with how he was adjusting and feel she went above and beyond in her care for our dog. Will definitely be using her again. We finally found a safe haven for our dog when we go away.”
“Phil was very friendly and communicative! He sent us pics and kept us updated and responded promptly to every inquiry. He was also really flexible with pickup/drop off and we would definitely book with him again!”
“Jacqueline and Jamie looked after our Riker during our wedding weekend! We could not have been more impressed. Jacqueline was so sweet and send lovely updates and pictures throughout the weekend. We felt so comfortable knowing Riker was in amazing hands. Thier property is totally dedicated to dogs and providing a safe space. Riker already misses his puppy freinds he met during his stay. Can't recommend them enough!!”
“Rodrigo and his family were wonderful with our dog! April was a little nervous at drop-off, but Rodrigo made sure she settled in quickly and was comfortable throughout her stay. He sent regular photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and made sure she got her walks and meals on schedule. When we picked her up, she was happy and clearly well looked after. He was also flexible when we needed to shorten her stay by a night. Highly recommend Rodrigo for pet boarding we’ll definitely book with him again for April!”
“Gus just had his second stay with Lei and the bond they have is beautiful. It is obvious that they understand each other and have a connection. Gus is very happy and feels safe when in her care. We are so lucky to have found someone who loves our Gus as much as we do.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Kirat and her husband. From the first time we met them, I felt completely comfortable leaving George with them, and when we picked him up, it was pretty obvious he’d had a great weekend. They genuinely seemed to enjoy having George around, and that means a lot to us. Kirat sent photos and updates while we were away, so we always knew he was happy and doing well. She was also very accommodating since we made the booking on fairly short notice. The biggest compliment I can give is that I will definitely leave George with them again without thinking twice. He was happy, well cared for, and clearly felt right at home. We’re really glad we found Kirat and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their dog.”
“Michelle and Yu were fantastic! They provided great care of our puppy and provided us with constant feedback through the process. They are very knowledgeable about dog behavior and are extremely attentive. We would recommend them highly as Cake really enjoyed her stay!”
“Copper was very well taken care of with Nancy. I also loved the personal touch of daily updates to keep us in the loop of how he was doing. Definitely would recommend and hope to use her services in the future!”
“Cathy took great care of our dog while we were away. We felt very comfortable leaving Shadow with Cathy after meeting her, her daughter and her dog ahead of time to ensure a good fit. We knew we were leaving our baby in very good hands. We really appreciated receiving photos while we were away, too! Would highly recommend Cathy and her fam!”
“Savannah provided excellent care for my portuguese water dog. I really appreciated the text, photo and video updates. When I picked up Rossi I was happy to see that she had been made to feel like part of the family - she was napping next to one of the family members. Thanks Savannah .”
“Faye is our go-to dogsitter. She looks after our Splash as if she were her own dog, and she updates us regularly with photos and videos to show us how Splash is doing. Our dog tends to steal tissues out of wastepaper baskets, and Faye takes great care to make sure she doesn't get into mischief. We can go away on vacation with complete peace of mind, knowing that Splash is being well looked after by Faye.”
“My first experience with Rover, Catherine and family were wonderful, took great care of our Sophie! Highly recommend, will feel very comfortable to use again! Thanks Catherine ❤️”
“Taylor and Tomer were such good hosts for Wayne! They accepted my last minute request to dogsit him while I as away for work. They have a sweet dog who was great company for Wayne, too! Taylor was very accommodating when I had to extend Wayne's stay twice because of cancelled/delayed flights. Wayne had the best time and ate very well. I have no complaints and will be sending Wayne to them again :)”
“Priyanka is an excellent care giver of dogs. She understands the sensitivity associated with dogs very well. She is very humble person and took very good care of our dog for a week while we were gone for vacation. I’d certainly recommend her to anyone looking to use her dog daycare service without any doubts. Harshal”
“We are so glad we found Anne as a new sitter for our 13 year old Westie Teddy! She took such great care of him while we were away over the Christmas holidays. We are so thankful for her flexibility in extending his stay for several days after we had two flight cancellations. Highly recommend Anne if you are looking for a dog sitter.”

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
