“Hillary took amazing care of my dog for an entire week, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She kept me updated throughout the stay by sending regular photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved in her care. Hillary is kind, reliable, and truly goes above and beyond for the pets she watches. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Thank you again, Hillary!”
“Lauren has been very accommodating with our needs. We left Teddy our medium size cockapoo 3 years old for 6 nights with her. She took very good care of him and he came back very happy. Thanks Lauren😊”
“Julia took care of our cat for the first time this holiday season. Our cat settled in almost immediately (a rarity!) and that gave us such peace of mind knowing she was so well cared for and comfortable. Julia provided daily updates and our little one was one happy cat when we picked her up. We will definitely bring her to Julia’s the next time we travel. Thank you, Julia!!”
“Ankur and Krupa were great hosts. They send constant updates regarding your pet, photos and videos as well. I did not have to worry about my pet when I was away. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a peaceful away time.”
“Rachael is fantastic! She sent daily updates with photos of Cooper. We can tell that Cooper was very happy with her. She kept Cooper clean and seemed to have treated him like her own. We will definitely ask her to baby sit Cooper again. Rachael, thank you so much for being wonderful 😊”
“Vanessa took great care of Ollie! He had lots of fun with the other dogs and came home happy and exhausted from all the fun playing. Vanessa was responsive, friendly and very accommodating and flexible with pick up time. Thanks Vanessa!”
“Our 6 month old poodle absolutely loves his stays at Holly's. He has anxiety around meeting new people and Holly is great about giving him space until he opens up. He makes new friends and has a huge area to run around in. Would recommend Holly to anyone who has a nervous puppy!”
“We were a bit anxious because we just adopted Twyla a month ago and she was not fully house trained. We had also never used Rover for our other dogs before. Bill and Norma were fantastic with Twyla - lots of walks and activities so she really enjoyed her time with them! We also really appreciated the pics and updates (more than daily).”
“I am so glad, I found Kyla! She was so responsive from the beginning. Posie ( our dog) was well taken care of while our family went for a trip. Kyla is amazing with animals, felt it’s a second home for our puppy!”

“I was worried about leaving our cat for the first time while we went on vacation, she had never been around other animals and was anxious. Shelby did everything to make our girl comfortable and send photos and updates while we were away so we could see get progress. I highly recommend Shelby and would absolutely use her again in the future.”
“It was our first time to use Rover so we weren’t sure how it was gonna go. Arlene did amazing with our senior dog (blind & deaf). She was so patient with him. Our dog usually gets really stressed in the past at the kennel but it looked like Snoopy has an amazing time with Arlene. Thank you Arlene!”

Overall, she went above and beyond, and we truly appreciate the love and attention she gave him. Highly recommend!”

“Our dog, Gracie, had an amazing time with Qian. From the moment Gracie met Quin, she liked her right away - Gracie even turned over for belly rubs, which she usually doesn't do with new people! Qian is kind, calm, and caring. I knew Gracie was in good hands. Gracie was very well cared for during our trip, and came back calm and happy. We've already rebooked Qian for a future trip.”

This was the first time she took care of my dog, and she did a great job. My dog was well taken care of, and I felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands. She was caring and responsible. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog, and I would be happy to have her take care of my dog again
Kazi is the perfect caretaker for your fur baby. We entrusted her with our dog Rosie for two days, and couldn't be happier with the quality of care that Rosie received from this wonderful lady. Our dog came home with a happy spirit, bright eyes and wagging tail. Kazi treats animals like her own family; a treasured companion who has the privilege of being loved and cared for. She also sends several daily updates, through text and pictures, to show that your beloved pet is comfortable and happy. We will definitely be booking Kazi again for future dog sitting. 5 stars!!!!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. We couldn't have asked for a better Rover sitter! From the moment we started talking to Zehra, it was obvious how patient, kind, and genuinely caring she is. She is truly the BEST —so calm, encouraging, and completely tuned in to what was needed. Throughout the entire week, she kept us updated with so many photos, videos and messages, which made being away from our pup so much easier. We never once had to wonder how he was doing. He was so happy, comfortable, and loved in her care. Her husband was absolutely wonderful too, and together they made my pup feel like part of their family. Also, their pup and cat are just the sweetest - so calm and well-mannered. We will absolutely see her again and can't recommend her highly enough. Thank you both for taking such amazing care of our happy little guy. ❤️
Sharai is amazing. Our Winston has never been “babysat” before, not even for a few hours let alone an overnight stay. We met her and talked about our worries and right from the start she demonstrated how much she understood him and us. She was very thorough in explaining how she would ensure he was taken care of. She gave us great and regular updates/pictures to reassure us he was doing just fine.Winston loved his time and got along with everyone! We had an amazing experience with Sharai and will definitely use her again
This is the second time we have asked Shelby to look after our dogs and it has been great. Her house and environment is very similar to our house. She has provided me with h several daily updates and it makes a difference when you are a week away. It has been a great experience and I certainly will consider again for a future boarding need and she is highly recommended

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
