“Christine was wonderful. Teddy felt right at home as soon as we got there and quickly loved her which put me at ease. She sent me photos and gave me updates on how Teddy was doing. Her home has a fenced back yard and other pups for Teddy to play with. I could tell he had a great time and was exhausted when we got home. Sign of a good visit! Will definitely book again! Thanks so much, Christine!”

College Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jennifer has watched our dog many times now and now our cat. Penny absolutely loves going to Jennifer’s and our cat who stays away from everyone was hanging out with Jennifer. Jennifer was able to accommodate an extra night when our flight home was canceled. We will definitely continue booking with Jennifer. Thanks for everything!

It was our first time utilizing the Rover Pet sitter services after we were unable to book with our normal pet boarding facility. Laura stuck out as a choice with her attention to detail, kind words and client photos. She is flexible and detail oriented in following pet care instructions. She was very patient and flexible with us since we do not have a kennel kept dog or cat. Our pets are house trained, well-behaved and designated when/where to sleep and eat, and she followed scheduled bathroom break instructions and habits perfectly. Our pets were at home and at ease with her quickly establishing a friendly bond and we were reassured during our time away with frequent pet photo updates. They enjoyed their stay with Laura and we will definitely book her again in the future! Thanks Laura for the loving care!

Emily was wonderful! My roommate and I both traveled out of state for a week, and Emily took great care of each of our dogs. She sent updates and pictures throughout the day and was always super responsive in all our communication. My dog came home happy and loved. Emily will be my new go-to sitter for my pup!

Paul is so great with our dog June! He's our number one choice when we travel. When June sees Paul she gets so excited. It's wonderful to know she's excited to see him and feels so loved in his care. It allows us to travel worry-free, and when we pick her up we can see that she's rested and relaxed. Highly recommend Paul for taking care of your beloved pets.

Nicollette was the absolute best with Cedar!!! She went above and beyond to make sure Cedar was familiar with her prior to his stay, coordinating a meet and greet ahead of time. Throughout the weekend, Nicollette sent updates and photos— enough to keep any anxious dog owner assured that everything was going well! Cedar came back incredibly happy and tuckered out from all the play and walks! It is evident he loved staying with Nicollette (and her dog, Maggie :))

Kelly was so wonderful with dog sitting Jayke. She was patient, kind, and chill which is what I needed for my anxious lil shih tzu. She sent pictures without me even having to ask and was very nice and professional. I will definitely book again. Thank you so much!

Heidi was amazing! Had to leave for a last minute work trip and she was able to watch Ruth with very short notice. She was very attentive to Ruth’s needs, sent a bunch of updates, and was very accommodating when I was delayed in picking Ruth up. Highly recommend!

Bryan was amazing! He took such good care of my dog Albie. He took into consideration my concerns about Albie, who gets pretty nervous when thunderstorms are coming as well as the fact that doesn't like other dogs. They took long walks and then chilled out on the sofa when they got back. He took Albie to the dog park when it was empty so he could run around. The comments and videos Bryan sent were so reassuring. I can't say enough good things about him. He has become the first person I will contact when I need a pet sitter. Thank you, Bryan!

I highly recommend Brandon for all of your pet needs. My dog has been in his care for nearly a year and he treats her like she is his own. He always provides frequent and timely updates and is the consummate professional. I also value his attentiveness to her dietary and medication needs. I can tell that he has a genuine love for dogs and it shows in how happy my dog looks when she’s in his care. He is simply the best!
