“110% recommend! Maria was excellent. We are new to NY and were in a rush to find someone to watch our pup. We got very lucky to have found Maria! She showed true passion and love for our pup just with one visit! She also noticed that he had an ear infection and took it upon herself to do something about it- can you say amazing? She ALSO gave him a bath— literally doesn’t get any better! We will certainly be using Maria again! Can’t thank her enough! ??”

“Gretchen is wonderful. She took great care of our 2-year old energetic golden retriever over the weekend. She has an 11-year old son who is also wonderful and was kind and loving to our dog too. Gretchen made sure our dog was well exercised and much loved. She sent us many pictures over the weekend and our dog was clearly quite happy. Gretchen is a great communicator which put us at ease when we were away. We are new to the area and are so grateful that we found Gretchen. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“We had to board our 2-year-old cur Rocky, who was skittish around other dogs and had never been boarded. She allowed us to get him acclimated with doggie daycare sessions which made him more comfortable with her. He stayed with Tara 11 days and we got multiple videos and text messages and photos from Tara concerning Rocky. Each day he was a little more comfortable with the other dogs and began playing with them instead of just sniffing them and watching them play with other dogs. He got plenty of exercise and I think he might have even lost a pound or two by staying more active with Tara than with us. I couldn't have chosen a better person to watch Rocky during our vacation. I cannot recommend Tara enough when it comes to pet sitting!”
“Brittany was reliable and timely in communicating. Our fur babies had a good time with her and they came home feeling good. She was polite to interact with. We will be using her again if we need a sitter!”

“Mildred and her family provided excellent care for my dog Mochi. She was also very friendly and professional in the way she related to me. I would certainly recommend her as a pet care provider.”

“David is great! He kept me updated the whole time while he was with Kali. He gave Kali plenty of exercise and attention; she came home and went straight to her bed. Will definitely stay with David again.”


“Cici was wonderful with Ruby! I had another rover fall through and Cici worker with me to find a solution. We were able to have a very slow and steady meet and greet. It gave Ruby a ton of confidence for the stay. All the updates about how my pup was fitting in with her family were great. She handled the pup well. Would highly recommend”

“Maryline was excellent. She really treated Ariel as one of her own. Ariel fell in love with her and her family and felt like home. She kept us continually updated with photos twice a day. I would definitely use her again. I would highly recommend her.”
“Donna is absolutely great, very nice, accommodating and very punctual. She sent many pictures with our dog, who seemed very happy and well taken care of. We are very pleased to have met her and shall definitely contact her again for future bookings. Thank you, Donna!”

“Matthew and his family are excellent dog caregivers! They have a very large fenced yard for the dogs to play. They are very attentive and sent many photos! I have an older newly adopted dog, they were so sweet and gentle with her. I highly recommend them!!!”

“Highly recommend. Johnathon has a lovely space where my pups had a blast. Loved the pictures he sent of them while I was away at my wedding. My Luna is an anxious dog and yet she did great. Definitely would rebook from here on out.”

“Our little guy, Wrigley, had an absolutely wonderful stay with Judy and Steven! I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming environment for their pup. As a beagle, Wrigley usually hates being left behind—but I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. He got the royal treatment with pup cups, plenty of love and attention, and he even made a new friend in their sweet dog, Ginger. Thank you, Judy and Steven, for making Wrigley feel so at home and for giving me such peace of mind!”

“Volha and her family are incredible dog sitters. Volha goes above and beyond for the pets in her care and is very adaptable to each pet’s individual needs. She is flexible and her pick up and drop off option came in handy for our pets as they are larger dogs and typically can’t ride in Ubers or the subway. Volha communicated with us every day and sent plenty of photos. Her entire family loves animals and it was clear from the photos that our pets had an incredible time in her care. I could tell my two dogs did not want Volha to leave and truly loved their time with her. I will definitely use her again in the future. Thank you Volha for everything!!!”

“Jeff and Bruce were great about staying in touch with me about my dog and sent pictures as well. They have ample indoor and outdoor space. This was my first time using Rover.com and I am very happy to have found such caring and responsible people to watch my dog.”

“Cherissa was an amazing host. I had a cancellation last minute with a sitter due to an emergency and she was available and so easy to work with. She shared pictures and updates of our puppy multiple times throughout the day of what my fur baby was doing. I will definitely be booking with Cherissa again.”

“Jack and I are so blessed to have Gabriel and Annie. I always feel confident that my sweet boy is going to be well cared for. They are very loving and attentive to my fragile old boy. Thank you both once again for giving me peace during my time away from Jack. I will be forever grateful ❤️”

Chelsea dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our Bruno had a wonderful time the week he spent with Elizabeth and Joe. He came home happy and relaxed. He’s 8 years old and does not like other dogs, so we really appreciated the attention they gave him and the frequent photo updates. Definitely will want to have him stay here again.
We are always so grateful and appreciative knowing that our dear golden retriever is SO loved in your home and is surrounded by entertainment with their sweet dog Matilda. There’s honestly no other dog we’ve seen our dog play with more than with Matilda. Truly can’t recommend Belen enough as a loving caretaker. Thanks as always for taking such good care of Lily, Belen!

I am beyond thrilled to have found Stefany! This was Penny’s second stay with her, and I can finally travel again with total peace of mind. Knowing that Penny isn't just 'looked after,' but is truly safe and loved makes all the difference in the world. Stefany is a gem, and Penny will definitely be back. Thank you for treating her like family!
