“Hannah is the best! This was my first time using a Rover and my puppy is only a year old so I was extra nervous about using a service for the first time, but I’m so happy I did because we found Hannah! My puppy was so well taken care of and I got regular updates and photos from Hannah which made me so happy and feel more at ease. I’ve already rebooked her to take care of my little girl again! Thank you, Hannah! 😊”
“Jemar was an amazing sitter for our beagle! Our dog is a rescue and can be a bit shy, but she and Jemar got along great and he even got her to come out of her shell and play with other dogs. Additionally, our flight got cancelled last minute and Jemar came to the rescue by keeping our dog an extra amount of time and even supplying food when our given portion ran short. I am so grateful to Jemar for going above and beyond to make sure our dog was safe and happy, I would definitely recommend!”
“Mya came back from her stay with Azia in such a happy mood! She was great at sending photos and videos while I was away and even accommodated a last minute request of mine. Definitely recommend her for watching your doggie!”
“Megan was great with Jasper! He had so much and I got daily pictures. She even sat with him to make sure he ate his dinner when he was too shy to eat somewhere new. Will definitely be rebooking”
“Dana took amazing care of Riley and treated him like part of her family, with so much extra love and plenty of cuddles. We truly appreciated the daily updates and all the photos. Our minds were immediately at ease knowing he was in such great hands. We have already reached out to book Riley’s next stay with her. Highly recommend!!”
“My first time using a sitter for my puppy was definitely a challenge for me, but it was something I needed to do. After much research, I chose Doudley O from Rover. We met once before the actual drop-off so I could see how Barkley interacted with him.Barkley warmed up to him immediately, which eased a big part of my anxiety, When I officially dropped him off, I felt somewhat at ease, but I knew only time would tell. I have to say, Doudley kept me updated every step of the way. He sent pictures, videos and clear communication throughout the entire stay. There was one issue, no fault of Doudley’s, but he handled it like the professional I expected him to be. Barkley came home happy, and as a bonus, he was walking on his leash noticeably better-thanks to Doudley’s care and attention. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Barkley with him again. And if you’re reading this review looking for a trustworthy sitter, choosing Doudley would be a wise decision for your pet.”
“Adrienne & Jarrod are a great choice to leave your pup with! I receive pictures and updates atleast 2-3 times a day, quick responses and seem to be very thorough with giving my dog the best care. Asher is always tuckered out after staying with them, which only tells me he’s getting lots of play time with Remy and his new friends and getting a lot of walks in!”
“Phil was excellent with our dog! He sent regular updates with pictures to help ease our nerves. Our dog was also dealing with a sensitive stomach and Phil was able to help with a special diet and monitoring. I would definitely recommend Phil to all dog owners!”
“Lauryn did an outstanding job watching Lainey! She provided frequent updates with pictures throughout the stay, which gave me complete peace of mind. Lainey clearly received tons of love and attention, she came home happy and well-cared-for. Lauryn was also hosting another dog and has her own, and she mentioned they all got along wonderfully and sent lots of pictures of their playtime. This was a big plus for me, as it meant Lainey had plenty of playtime and socialization. I highly recommend Lauryn to anyone looking for a dedicated, communicative sitter!”
About: Dog lover with 10+ years of hands on experience caring for my own pup. I’m new to Rover but not new to responsible, attentive pet care for small and medium-sized dogs. I offer drop ins, house sitting, and boarding with close supervision, thoughtful updates, and genuine affection. Pet First Aid and CPR certified. Pet care is something I intentionally build into my schedule, not fit in between other commitments. I keep a flexible routine and limit bookings so each dog receives focused attention and consistent care. Whether it’s boarding, house sitting, or drop-ins, I prioritize being present, punctual, and aligned with your dog’s normal routine. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I host only one dog at a time to provide focused, individualized care. My home includes a gated balcony with direct outdoor access, plus a secure fenced dog park in my building. I’m happy to follow your preference for leash walks, park time, or both. I work fully from home, so pets are supervised throughout the day and never left unattended outside. Dogs are welcome to free roam unless you prefer otherwise. For drop-ins, visits are at least 30 minutes and can include feeding, potty breaks, medication, and anything else your pet needs. I’m Pet First Aid and CPR certified through the American Red Cross and very experienced administering oral, topical, and injectable medications. You’ll receive thoughtful updates and photos each visit, tailored to your comfort level.
“This was my first time using Rover and I would say it was a great experience. My dog gets anxious when he’s away from me but Allison made him very comfortable and he enjoyed his stay. I appreciated that Allison kept me updated without me having to reach out to her first. I will definitely use her again.”
“Cody was great and sent lots of photo/video updates. Rocky loved his kids and had lots of snuggles and ball time! Cody was also super flexible because of a flight cancellation and it was a relief to know Rocky was so well taken care of!”
“Oriana did a great job watching our Goldendoodle! Tons of updates and pictures. Was also very flexible with our drop off and pickup schedule! Wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“Ana takes amazing care of my dog Draco. She goes above and beyond caring for him and sending me tons of updates/pictures. He usually has separation anxiety but he loves going to Ana’s house and has been comfortable around her since he first met her. She is great with dogs and great with communication, can’t recommend her enough!”
“Shalee & Gabe were wonderful sitters for Luna! We needed someone to watch our pup for the night on our trip and they were right next to downtown. Communication was great throughout Luna’s stay would highly recommend!”
“Daniella was great watching over my dog who can be challenging for those not up for the task. She communicated frequently and sent pictures daily. Iverson seemed very comfortable at her place!”

Jordan watched Moose while I traveled for a work trip on 3/3 and 3/4. Jordan was a pleasure to deal with, responded very timely, provided updates with pictures and made our first Rover experience perfect. I do plan to book Jordan again and would recommend to everyone.
Rae was awesome - we have a pretty skittish dog who is scared of a lot of people, but she settled in with Rae and her pup Leila in no time. Rae sent us endless photos, videos and updates throughout our trip to ease our fears and in all of them, Riley was playing, wrestling or stealing toys from her pup. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter to show us how much fun Riley was having - she was honestly on vacation herself! Rae has a great dog area at her apartment, took Riley on trips and walks and honestly paid so much attention to her - from all the fun Riley had, she's been sleeping for 2 days straight now! Thank you Rae for treating Riley like you're own - if you're looking for a new dog sitter who will treat your pup like royalty, look no further than Rae!
Tiffany was beyond amazing with our pup! This was the first time anyone has watched him and our first time using Rover. Tiffany made us and our pup feel soooo welcomed, loved, and cared for. I cannot explain how much I would recommend Tiffany for anyone looking to watch their pup. Our pup had the ChowChow and Huskey personality and Tiffany was able to handle his fun energy. She made our pup feel at home and loved and that’s exactly what we were looking for. I canning wait to have Tiffany watch our pup again in the future.
We love Mia!!! She is part of our village. She always takes amazing care of our pup and if very communicative, flexible and thoughtful with us and our family’s needs. Our pup gets so excited driving into Mia’s neighborhood and is always happy and tired when he comes home. We wish we lived next door!
Amanda is great! My dog rescue dog is so timid with new people so I get nervous leaving her with someone new but Amanda is kind, gentle and I really appreciated her updates! When I went to pick her up, she was so happy with Amanda which was great to see. Would highly recommend & will be using her again!
Maria was the perfect dog sitter. She was responsive, professional, and incredibly caring with our dog. We have a rescue who can be reactive on leash — improving, but still unpredictable — and Maria handled everything with patience and confidence. Our dog absolutely loves being around people, and Maria and her partner were such a great match. We were traveling internationally and loved receiving updates and videos (especially seeing our dog with their kids!). It gave us so much comfort knowing she was in such good hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and would absolutely book Maria again.
