“We have been using Jim as our dog-sitter for over 3 years and feel very fortunate to have found him when we first started using Rover. He is always quick to respond to sit requests and is great about sending pictures of Bodhi on their walks. We highly recommend Jim!”

“Stephen was awesome! He was very accommodating and took great care of our Cooper. Stephen set aside time to listen to our requests and all of Coopers needs. We received lots of lovely pictures and updates, which made us so happy to know that our special pup was in good hands. We would definitely book another stay and highly recommend Stephen. Thank you Stephen!”


“Very helpful and communicated well to help accommodate our needs. Our dogs got along well in her home and her updates and pictures were reassuring and put me at ease when we went out of town. our dogs are big babies when it comes to going outside in the rain and the whole weekend was a wet mess so I was so grateful Heather was able to get them out and keep them company this weekend.”

“Thank you, Cindy! My husband and I appreciate the photos and updates I received from you while Leila was boarding with you for a week! Will definitely rebook when needed!”

“Camila is so sweet and treated our girl like family while we were away. She sent updates and pictures too! I highly recommend her and we will definitely continue to use her in the future!”

“Edina was amazing with our 10 year old dog Teddy. She was so communicative and sent pictures and let us know how he was doing while we were out of town for a week! He was so well cared for and came home a happy pup!”

“She is AMAZING. She cared for Mario and loved him like he was hers while watching him for 17 days!! Thank you so much, Kasandra- words cannot express how thankful I am to you!!!”

“Corey was great. I was a first time Rover user and first time boarding my two dogs outside of their original foster mom. Corey put me at ease with an initial meet and greet to get a chance to get comfortable with each other before their stay. From there, Corey took in the dogs and provided updates and pics throughout their stay. Both dogs seemed happy with their stay. Thanks Corey”

“I truly felt comfortable leaving my little boy with Candace and I appreciate her keeping him a few hours longer than planned. The next time I need a sitter, I'll definitely check with Candace first.”

“Tracey was awesome. She allowed Chance the opportunity to be out of his crate at night and with his new friends. Chance was sad when it was time to leave. Thanks again. I will use Tracey in the future.”

“This is our furry wiggle butts 3rd stay with Jessie. They get so excited when we turn down her street its almost as if we could just let them out of the car and they would find her.”

“Mai has been great and has done a great job taking care of Cody ! She was constantly updating me with photos and video of Cody and made sure that I’m comfortable . Mai , you are great !! Thank you so much again for taking a great care of our Cody 🙏❤️”


“Stacie was an absolute amazing! She took care of both my dogs; Duke and Rosie, for six days. Rosie stayed with Stacie before, but it was the first time for Duke. Stacie sent photos of both dogs multiple times a day. Duke had a knee surgery couple of years ago, so we were a little concerned, but Stacie was very cautious so he doesn’t hurt himself playing. Rosie is an anxious dog and takes a little time to warm up to people, but has no trouble introducing herself with other dogs, Stacie put us as ease! She provides regular updates throughout the day. In every photo, my dogs looked happy and well cared for. Duke and Rosie were shown a lot of love and attention during their time with Stacie and they came home happy and healthy. I could not have asked for a better person to look after both my dogs. We love Stacie! You are truly an awesome and so good with our two dogs. Many thanks again. We really appreciate all you’ve done with both Duke and Rosie!”

“Ingrid was very patient, nice and communicative with me throughout Rocco’s stay. She sent photos and messages regarding Rocco’s day very often. It eased my anxiety as this was Rocco’s first time staying with someone else overnight. He is very attached to me so I was a bit concerned, but from the updates I got it looks like he did just fine :). Thank you Ingrid for taking such a good care of my baby and for being patient with him.”

“Anthony did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs! He truly cares, sends pictures and updates daily, and makes sure he learns about each of your dog's needs. We will definitely ask Anthony to watch them again!”

“Maria was a gem! she went above and beyond in every way. She sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout the stay. Cub came home not only safe and sound, but clearly spoiled like she was the one that didn’t want the vacation to end 😂 I know my dog is looking for me to step up my game. Maria gave her plenty of love, playtime, and extra treats. Maria is a 10/10 sitter.”


“Absolutely wonderful dog sitter and caregiver! Kathleen (Katie) has been my go-to dog boarder for over 15 years, and I was thrilled when she joined Rover so more people could find her. She recently watched my dog for me, and it was just as fantastic as always. From the very first day we met, I knew my pups were in the best hands. Katie truly loves dogs and it shows in everything she does. When we adopted our puppy a while back, Katie was incredibly helpful — offering advice, extra patience, and gentle guidance as we all adjusted to life with a new little one. She has such a calming presence with dogs of all ages and personalities. My dog always comes home happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like their own, look no further. Katie is professional, communicative, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about what she does. I recommend her without hesitation — she’s the real deal! Thank you, Katie, for always taking such great care of my furry family members. ❤️”

“We found our forever friend with Saroj! Her hospitality was so gracious and her style of pet parenting perfectly aligned with mine so our pups felt right at home. We received lots of videos and pictures and were so happy how well our puppies' energy aligned with her's!”

Shadow had an amazing time once again with Kassie and her dogs! It's nice to know that your dog is being cared for as you would (if not better) care for them, and Kassie definitely gives that! She gives Shadow so much love and play time and fun and comfort! We will book with her again and again, highly recommend!!
