“Nothing short of AMAZING!! Very accommodating and always takes great care of our sweet girl and provides updates throughout the day. We couldn’t be happier with services we received.”

“Thank you so much, Svitlana, for taking such great care of my dog! You were incredibly helpful and excellent at communicating, both during the initial meet and greet and throughout the stay. I especially appreciated the photos and videos you shared – it really put my mind at ease. I’m so grateful for all your help!”

“Hannah did a great job watching our beagle. Our dog can be a bit nervous about new dogs, especially big ones, and Hannah introduced her gently and sent plenty of pics of the pack hanging out together.”

“Hillary was fantastic! Whaley stayed with her for 10 days and we received continuous communication and pictures. He was even hesitant to leave her house when we went to pick him up because he was so happy there.”

“Aly did a great job of looking after my dog Margarita. She was quick with responses to communication and sent photo updates every day as requested. She was also flexible and communicative with drop-off and pick-up times when plans had to be adjusted. Thanks again Aly for looking after Margarita so well!”

“Julie is great. I feel like she and her family treated my dogs like they were part of the family. She was good about sending me pictures and updates. I highly recommend her and plan on having her keep my dogs whenever I go out of town.”

“We are extremely pleased and highly recommend Mark and Daniel for dog boarding services. They are knowledgeable, organized and caring and we received regular updates on our dog while he was in their care. We could tell from the minute we met, that they are truly dog lovers.”

“Rebecca has a wonderful space and very lovely playful pups! We had a great meet and greet to ensure it was a good fit and booked when we all felt it was! She provided good updates and was flexible with us and our pup. She is an experienced doggy caretaker and our dog had a great time and came back to us happy and tired from all the playtime and walking. Couldn't recommend her enough!”

“Mariellen and Robert took great care of my Lizzy and sent several pictures & updates of her while we were out of town. They kept such good care of her as I believe they would any pet in their charge. Thank you!”

“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”

“We cannot say enough about the loving and caring environment created for our 🐶. She is 5 and had never stayed with anyone other than family and somehow Jani & Paul made it seem like our Lucy was with family. We cannot recommend them enough!”


“Mary and her family are AWESOME! My dog Blue is a very small papillon and can be a little shy at first. Mary and her family did such a wonderful job making Blue feel right at home. She sent tons of super cute photos and updates and her son even brushed little Blue! I know my pup was living it up at her home and I felt so comfortable leaving her there. When I picked Blue up I could tell she really acclimated to being there! Mary’s family has two sweet doggies as well so Blue got some extra doggy socialization while she was there too. I’d recommend Mary and fam in a heartbeat and hope that Blue will be able to stay there again. 10/10 absolutely would recommend!”

“Moxie had a great time staying over with Caroline. I loved getting photos and updates. Caroline is very experienced with dogs who have special needs and she is warm and friendly. So glad we found her!”


“James was really great with Topanga, quick to respond to questions and messages. I know he took good care of her, and I would gladly leave her with him for a long stay again.”
Charlottesville High dog parents share their Rover experiences
Penny was an outstanding sitter to work with. Our pups seemed to do really well with her and her own dogs. She was very accommodating, a great communicator, and super easy to work with in every respect. We were also sent plenty of pictures throughout their visit. I’d recommend Penny to anyone looking for help with their pet(s).

Julie and her family took excellent care of Spencer when we were out of town! She sent regular updates and pics so we could see how well he was doing. It gave us such peace of mind to know that he was having great time. We'll definitely be reaching out to Julie again when we need a sitter for Spencer.

We had such a wonderful experience with our Bertie! They took care of our dog for two days and treated him like their own. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease. They consistently kept us updated with videos and photos, which meant so much to us. Seeing Coco happy, comfortable, and well cared for made it easy to relax while we were away. Communication was excellent the entire time — quick responses, thoughtful updates, and genuine care. We’re so grateful for the love and attention they gave our pet and would absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend! 🐾

Kelley was the ABSOLUTE BEST! She and her husband (and their sweet dog Piper) were the perfect hosts to our dog Baylee. While Baylee has the tendency to get a bit anxious or temperamental around strangers, she made herself right at home due to the welcoming and warm nature of Kelley and her beautiful crew. Kelley was amazing with her communication - regularly sending photos, texts, and updates - so I knew how Baylee was doing the entire time we were gone. As a result, we were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was being well cared for a completely spoiled. 15/10 would recommend Kelley as your next dog sitter... Unless I need her to watch Baylee, because there's no one else we'd use as a dog sitter from hereon out! :)

Tionna took amazing care of my 1.8yo female German Shepherd Dog named Dasha for a full week, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She sent multiple updates and photos every single day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Dasha was well cared for, happy, and getting plenty of attention. When I picked up Dasha, she came back happy, relaxed, and completely herself — not stressed or withdrawn in any way. You can truly tell when a dog has been treated with kindness, and that was absolutely the case here. I would 100% use Tionna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and attentive sitter. Thank you, Tionna!

Paula was absolutely amazing with our dog and made her feel right at home from day one. She took excellent care of her, kept us at ease while we were away, and was incredibly flexible and accommodating when our return travel got complicated. We’re so grateful for her kindness and care when it came to taking care of our pup and would 100% book with her again — five stars without hesitation!

Izzy is the best sitter! Our dog, Maisie, seemed to know this before she even got inside the apartment. All wags and up on the couch and happy before we got down the road. Great communication, too—photos and videos—and a play date at Izzy’s family home with two Doodles on top of all the good care. We can’t wait to book again.
Angel seemed very happy to stay with Indira for a week. Indira was flexible and accommodating with my work travel and her place was clean, organized, and a good calm space for my pup. She reached out when Angel was having a hard time and was able to resolve the issue quickly with some feedback. Would definitely use her again.

This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.

Griffin was fantastic. I could tell how thoughtful and caring he was from when I first reached out. He has a calm reassuring presence and was very attentive to details about Sophie’s care, and immediately responded whenever I messaged him. He also sent me photo and video updates each day wherein I could tell how genuinely happy and relaxed Sophie was with him. It was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about it, and I feel like I got so lucky. I highly, highly recommend Griffin for dog care!!

Brooke did an excellent job taking care of our dog. She was very responsive to all our messages and sent regular updates and photos each day. She was also incredibly flexible with our pickup time after a delayed return flight. We definitely would book with Brooke again!
