“Isabel and her husband were the best hosts I could have asked for for my puppy! This was my first time leaving my dog, Wren, overnight anywhere for longer than 1 night and they were phenomenal with her. Isabel was constantly sending me updates and the most adorable photos which provided me with so much comfort knowing that Wren was taken care of. Her dogs and mine got along great so knowing that she had some friends with her the whole 8 days was a HUGE bonus. It's so nice knowing that when I travel again in the future, I have someone safe to leave my dog with. Thank you Isabel!”
“Zasha had a wonderful time with Malique house and she improved her party which is so great I really enjoyed it and I will definitely repeat the boarding care sitter with Malique !”
“My pups had a great stay with Zachary! He was communicative and sent lots of pictures. I had no worries while they were in his care and would highly recommend him to anyone. He makes sure your dogs get plenty of play time at the dog parks!”
“Gilbert took great care of our black lab mix, Ember! She’s high energy and can be a lot sometimes, but Gilbert and his sweet pup Moon kept her entertained and happy! Recommend 100%!! Thank you so much Gilbert.”
“Charlie spent two weeks with Lisa and was so comfortable and well taken care of. We were able to fully log offline and relax knowing he was in good hands! Multiple daily updates with photos and occasional videos. Charlie is a senior dog with separation anxiety so we were very worried about leaving him for so long and finding a sitter who would accommodate his joint problems and medication needs. Lisa was great about his routine and attentive to our requests!”
“Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.”
“Gary was the best! I look forward to having him take care of my sweet boy again in the future! It's so good to feel confident leaving your pet with someone who really cares for our sweet baby!!!! Gary provided regular feedback and photos!! Very happy!! Thank you!!”
“Keasha continues to set the bar for pet care. We were delayed getting back from a trip and Keasha made sure to purchase additional food. She cares for our fur baby like she’s her own and gives us tremendous peace of mind.”
“Thank you Matthew for taking care of my baby while I was gone for a weekend . I appreciate the pictures you sent and playing fetch with him . Will definitely recommend to friends !”
“I am very happy to have met Doris and very pleased with the care OREO received at her home. She is very nice and she genuinely cares for her four legged friends. I am sure Oreo enjoyed her company! He seemed happy and calm.☺️”
“Miya definitely enjoyed her stay with her new friends. On Miya’s 5 day stay I was kept informed and received phone pics on how she was doing. Isabella was so accommodating. I will definitely use her again and would totally recommend her.”
“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Anely was great! Our little guy loved her, her dogs and family. She was very attentive and sent regular updates and pictures. Made us very comfortable leaving our dog with her. Will absolutely use her again and highly recommend!”
“Absolutely wonderful with my cat. He normally doesn’t open up to pet sitters right away because of separation anxiety but he opened up quickly with Alyssa. She took great care of my baby boy and kept me constantly updated on him”
College Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Boa was an actual lifesaver this past week! Dunkin was supposed to fly with me on my trip but was turned down at the airport. Boa was able to accept Dunk into her home and was so accommodating to my asks. She sent me multiple pictures a day! Strongly recommend and will love to book with again!
Michelle was fantastic. We had our 13.5yo Jack Russell stay with her, and Michelle helped her feel comfortable, and happy. Our dog can be anxious, and she was in regular communication to share pics and vids, and our girl settled in quickly! Our dog loved it. We definitely recommend Michelle.
Dorota’s home is my dog’s home away from home. They do a wonderful job caring for the dogs who stay with them, from monitoring personalities to capturing the fun in pictures, and ensuring the dogs have lots of backyard playtime. My dog runs up their steps to greet them every time.
Anely has been take care of our senior dog for almost 2 years now and always goes above and beyond every time, especially since our dog started having more accidents and has many more needs as she gets older. We truly never look for anyone else to dogsit when we are traveling!
Tammy did an amazing job taking care of Jovie. She kept us updated daily with texts and pictures. It made us feel very comfortable she was taking care of Jovie while we were away. You can tell Jovie and her have a bond and she is great with dogs. Would highly recommend Tammy!
We had a great experience with Robert. He did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. He provided status and photos during the stay which made us, as first time users of the service, very comfortable. I would recommend his services and use him again if we are in need of sitting.
Andrea boarded our dog, Freya, for two weeks over the 2025 holiday season. She was fantastic! From the very first meet & greet visit, Andrea was punctual, flexible, and detail-oriented. She asked very thoughtful and knowledgeable questions about our dog and it was obvious that she had a lot of experience with dogs of various temperaments. Freya's stay was even more incredible - we got daily photos of our dog being cute, being taken on multiple long walks, and generally loved on by Andrea. By day 3, my main concern was how I was going to get Freya to want to come back home. I could not recommend Andrea enough and would book her again in a heartbeat. If you're reading this review and Andrea is available - she is hands down the best choice. Literally the best Rover I have ever had.
Robert is wonderful—such a kind person. We left our dog with him for three days and could not have been happier. Every morning, he sent us a message about how Cookie was doing, along with a video. He took great care of her. Thank you so much, Robert! I trust him completely and will absolutely leave Cookie with him again whenever we need to travel.
