“My dog, Scout, has stayed with May & Marc a few times and they always take great care of him. They send pictures/ updates everyday and Scout seems to like returning for the next visit. Scout enjoys playing with their dog Pepper!”


“Kimberly is so loving and good to our dog! He is happy to go there and happy when we pick him up. She sends tons of pix to let us know he is ok and he has a good time with her 2 dogs for company. Thank you Kimberly for the great care!”


“Anna is amazing! She has the perfect setup for taking care of pets, and the moment I met her, I knew my dog would be in great hands—and he absolutely was! I can finally travel with total peace of mind. She clearly adores dogs, has a super safe and secure yard, and kept in touch the whole time with updates and adorable pictures. It means the world to know my best buddy is happy and loved while I’m away. I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter!”


“Honeybear was well loved and cared for at Danielle’s house!! Great communication, prompt responses, and asked great questions to get to know Honeybear. I’m glad we found Danielle and can’t wait to be back!”


“Justin and Tara watched my pup for almost 2 weeks, We had a meet and greet the week before - the booking was originally going to be one week, the 1st week of August, but I had the opportunity to go away for a few days before my original vacation and so I asked if Desi could come for a few days before the original booking and they were very flexible and said no problem, The meet and greet went well, and my pup got to meet the family and I felt like she’d be comfortable with them. She is very social and so I knew she’d be happy to be with a fun family and any other dogs they might have over - When it came time to drop her off, i gave instructions and said goodbye. I got updates, throughout the days- it sounded like she was having a great time and had settled in well, I got videos of her having fun with different doggy friends, and snoozing in laps and next to her playmates (Justin and Tara asked when we discussed the dates, if Desi liked other dogs - I said she loves playmates) I am so happy that I found Justin and Tara- they have a beautiful home and a wonderful family and they will take care of your pet as if it is their own.”


“I had a wonderful experience with Alana and her husband as pet sitters for my dog, Terry. They were incredibly attentive and caring throughout the entire stay. I received daily updates and photos, and they paid close attention to all the small details to ensure Terry felt comfortable, especially with his eating and sleeping routines. What truly stood out was Terry’s reaction when I came to pick him up. He was happy and relaxed, and—something he had never done with previous sitters—he went back to Alana and her husband to say goodbye with a smile and a kiss. It was clear he felt safe and well cared for. I highly recommend Alana and her husband to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet care, and I would not hesitate to leave Terry with them again in the future.”


About: My husband and I are true dog lovers! We have had cats and dogs growing up since we were children, and we know that they are more than just pets... they are family! We have 2 dogs of our own and they are both friendly. We give lots of love and attention to them, and would love to be a host for yours! We understand all dogs have different personalities and we will cater to their needs as desired or requested. We will give you the extra piece of mind that your pet will get excellent service, care, and safety! Someone will be home full-time and we are very flexible. Thank you for taking the time to read this... Aloha! My husband and I work 100% remote, so we are both at home most of the time and only leave if we have a short errand to run. This allows us to spend a lot of time with the pups! We will be very attentive to the needs of any dogs under our care and will provide the same type of attention, care, and affection as we do our own dogs.

“I highly recommend Nadiia as a dogsitter! She was fantastic with my dog, showing kindness and patience, especially with my shy pup who needed extra time to warm up. Nadiia's consistent updates through photos and videos during my vacation provided great reassurance. Ginger is super friendly and became a wonderful companion to my dog. They enjoyed plenty of outdoor play and long walks—I'm certain my dog had a blast. Grateful for Nadiia's excellent care! We're already thinking about bringing Happie back for more playtime and, of course, longer stays in the future. Nadiia's awesome dog-sitting skills left us seriously impressed, and we're looking forward to more doggy adventures with her!”


“I booked with Laurel and had no issues. Mr Bosco enjoyed his time there. Even though it was just one day she took him on a short hike with her dog Daisy. When I picked him up he seemed happy and was still playing with Laurel’s dog. I also received updates and pictures each day. No problem with eating schedule. Will definitely book again.”


“This was the first time I had my cat stay for an extended period of time and he couldn’t have been happier. I received lots of photo and video updates and Zil was always responsive. He had so much fun that he didn’t want to go home. He’ll definitely be visiting again with Zil.”


“My dog had a short stay with Weili over the weekend, and Weili did a great job taking care of my dog. She sent photos daily to keep us updated, and had her dog playing with mine, which mine seemed to quite enjoy. Also was very flexible in terms of last minute changes to accommodate my timing. Overall a great stay!”


“Alyssa was super quick to reply and send photos and updates while Bowie was with her. She also helped practice his training so he would stay on track. I would definitely book with her again!”


“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone but family and Zari did such an amazing job with making us feel comfortable and taking such great care of our pup ! We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about him .. peace of mind makes all the difference !!! I would 100% recommend her and plan on using her again the next time we need a sitter !! Thank you Zari !!!”



“This by far has been the best home/place we have taken Robin (our dog) too! Alix's home is welcoming, warm, and very loving. Not only is Alix's home designed for dogs and cats but everyone there makes sure they are happy and free to play or relax. Our dog can be a bit sensitive sometimes and this is the first time we've ever felt comfortable leaving him somewhere other than home. Words can't even begin to describe how awesome it feels to be comfortable and happy when we are out of town and have someone to watch our due baby! Thank you Alix and family!”


“Great dog sitters! Kept me updated on how my Duboo was doing. Made sure she ate throughout her stay by even sharing some of their pet’s fresh food. Sent photos throughout the stay and Duboo was always walked! Would definitely rebook!”


“Our Scottish Terrier had the best stay with Nicole and her family while we were on vacation -- she was well-loved and we really enjoyed all of the photos of our girl while we were away. Nicole's son was so sweet with Holiday -- your dog will be well taken care of with Nicole!”


“Pranjali was great with Coco! I really appreciated the updates throughout the day from her with pictures and videos. Since she has a dog of her own I felt very confident that she could take care of my sweet Coco. I would highly recommend Pranjali for your next sitter!”


“MacKenzie is the best rover we have ever had! She and her boyfriend took care of our lab for over a week and our pup had the best time. She was great with communication and even administered eye drops with ease! We could not recommend her more! She is the best!”

“Eric is one of the best dog sitters you can ever have! I know it's not easy for you and doggies to separate from each other even for a few days, but Eric's loving, caring and fun personality will make your dogie(s)'s stay so much easier and even fun! I full heartedly recommend him! You would not regret your decision!”

Del Mar Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Had Tyler dog sit my dog Bella multiple times. My dog is older so it was great to see pictures of Tyler being able to get her out and about around the beautiful area as well as making sure she feels relaxed at his place. Tyler is definitely a great person to trust with your dog when you’re out of town!

Trisha is amazing 🐾 She is super communicative and took wonderful care of Cacao. I could tell he had a great time with her! She sent me daily pictures and updates, which made it easy to enjoy my trip without stressing about how he was doing. I loved the thoughtful attention she gave! Cacao was clearly happy and well cared for. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐❤️

Alana and her husband were simply amazing! They took such great care of our elderly dog. She needed diapers changed and her bottom washed, and they handled it all no problem. Our dog always refuses food when she’s with a dog sitter and this can go on for a few days. With Alana, she only refused food for one day and then she got her to eat well the rest of her stay, which is amazing. They gave her so much love and cuddles, and sent daily photo updates. We couldn’t be happier and will definitely be using them again.

I booked with Laurel and had no issues. Mr Bosco enjoyed his time there. Even though it was just one day she took him on a short hike with her dog Daisy. When I picked him up he seemed happy and was still playing with Laurel’s dog. I also received updates and pictures each day. No problem with eating schedule. Will definitely book again.

I had never left our dog in anyone’s care since getting him 7 years ago but within minutes I felt assured and confident with him in her care. She has a true love of animals in general and particularly dogs. Angie is a gem! I did not worry at all while we were on our trip. This was a huge relief and will for sure be using her again when we travel.

Caitlin has been Keaton’s Rover sitter for a long time now, and we truly couldn’t ask for anyone better. Every time we pick Keaton up, she’s somehow happier than when we dropped her off with her tail wagging, and clearly full of love. It’s such a comfort knowing Keaton is in such good hands when she’s with Caitlin. She treats her like family, and it shows in every update, every photo, and every joyful reunion. We’re so grateful to have found someone who cares for Keaton as much as we do. Caitlin is a gem, and we can’t recommend her enough!
