“Elena was fantastic and sent regular updates about Beignet. Only two other dogs in the home (1 pet, 1 other Rover pup), and everyone got along well. Will definitely book with Elena again in the future!”

“I highly recommend Iryna for dog sitting! She took good care of my dog for 5 nights and kept me updated me the whole time. I will definitely book with her again.”

“Michael and Rachel took absolutely wonderful care of my dog Gizmo while I was away! From the moment we met, I could tell they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. They were attentive, responsible, and incredibly kind — sending me regular updates and photos that made me feel completely at ease. Gizmo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s such a relief to know he was in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Michael and Rachel to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate dog sitters!”

“If I can calm anyone's angst about leaving their beloved pet with Michael, I hope this review does the trick. You can't ask for a more thoughtful & loving care giver. He has 5 stars from everyone who uses his services & they are well earned. Thank you Michael & I know the 'boys' miss you terribly!”

“Mary was a wonderful sitter. She sent pictures and kept me updated on the status of my fur baby. He seemed to be in great spirits upon picking him up. Will definitely recommend Mary as a sitter and utilize her service again in the near future.”

“Blair was great with my 2 little ones, and Cody was really happy and friendly too. She updated me with pictures and even let them sleep on her bed. She followed their special feeding instructions to the detail. My babies were not stressed out at all and seemed at ease when I picked them up. Thanks so much, til next time!”
“My dog was so happy at drop off when he saw Mike again! Mike went above and beyond as usual, playing with my pup daily and making sure he felt so loved. I have already booked him for future trips. Thank you so much for always sending plenty of updates/photos!”

“Regina is the best sitter I’ve ever had! She’s reliable, thoughtful, and truly caring. My dog can be skittish and difficult, but Regina was able to win her trust—and that means everything to me.”

“Roxanne took such good care of our girl for a week while we were out of town. She had friends to play with and Roxanne sent us several photos and updates to keep us in the loop. We would definitely take our dog back to stay with her again!”

“Cheryn was wonderful! So kind, attentive, and caring. She sent lots of pics of my pup and regular updates. My pup loved staying with her, and I felt comforted knowing she was in good hands and having fun!”

“My Brûlée had a wonderful experience with Lindsey! She had plenty of walks and fun with Lindsey’s daughter. I could tell she was a happy puppy when I picked her up! I definitely will be needing her to visit again!”

“I’ve been booking with Aja for a year now. Her and her parents are very good with Dexter, they send a lot of pictures and updates. Our little one was well taken care of which puts our mind at ease while we are out of town. Highly recommend her!”

“Etta is great with Riley! I’ve got a German Shepherd and it was really important to me to board with someone who is familiar with them. Etta is very in tune with the animals she watches and really knows her stuff with dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving Riley with her.”

“My dog had such a great experience with Margaret. Margaret sent videos and photos from daily walks with my baby. Belle was in great hands. I trust Margaret and will be using her services again for as long as she is available. Thank you Margaret.”

“This was my first time ever leaving my dog with a sitter and it couldn't have been a better experience. Serena and AJ were very communicative and responsible. Received daily updates and pictures of Remi which really put my mind at ease. Highly recommend!”

“Katherine and her family take such good care of our girl each time she stays with them. We have sent her to stay with them multiple times and each time they share plenty of photos and updates. Highly recommend!”

“I am so grateful for Randy. He took such great care of Willis and sent pictures frequently. Randy was also very accommodating when I asked if William could stay another day as my flight was delayed 3 different times! I would highly recommend Randy for future pet sitting needs.”

“We appreciate Sarah taking our pup last minute and for such a long day. We were only visiting NOLA and appreciated all photo updates and reassurance throughout the day. Would definitely book again with Sarah :)”

“We are so thankful for Jon! He did an INCREDIBLE job watching our pack of 4 poms over our wedding weekend! We have never used Rover before or left our dogs overnight and were pretty nervous. We even got on a call with Jon prior to booking and he was more than willing to answer our millions of questions. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times (we drove into NOLA from STL) and was so patient with my "helicopter parent" husband that wanted to set up their beds himself and was so anxious to leave them. Jon's house is also on a side street that made drop off really easy. We received multiple updates and the cutest photos the whole weekend! Our pack definitely had a great time. They loved the backyard! We have a senior dog with mobility issues that he was very careful with, and another pom with some hearing and vision loss and he was wonderful with both. It was very obvious that Jon loves dogs and took care of our fur babies like they were his own! When we picked the pups up he had everything packed up which was a huge time saver since we were driving back home. He had even ran one of our blankets through the dryer so they would have a warm spot to lay since the weather had gotten cold that morning! It is so difficult to trust someone else with your animals, and we were lucky to find such a caring and thoughtful Rover. Jon, thank you so much for going above and beyond to take care of our poms while we got married! See you next year! (-:”

Etta has watched Kiwi twice now and each time has been a wonderful and seamless experience. Kiwi gets to socialize with other dogs while staying in a comfortable environment. I know she gets plenty of love and attention, and even makes art for me during her stay (I now have to pieces proudly displayed in my home)! Etta is great with updates and overall communication, making being away from Kiwi as easy as possible. I highly recommend her for looking after your fur baby.

My wife and I took a last minute trip to New Orleans over the weekend while traveling with our corgi. We hadn't planned for boarding but reached out to Michael with a late request. Michael agreed and was great communicating his availablity and options for caring for Kosmo. Michael was very welcoming and took great care of Kosmo. Michael was very communicative during Kosmo's visit and sent pics during his stay. Many thanks as this allowed us flexibility to explore the city!

I can't say enough good things about Blair. You can tell she has a real love abd passion for your fur baby while in her care. I've never trusted anyone with my Sandi besides my late mother. But shetruly put me at ease, allowing me to turn Already booked my second sitting with her 🔥🙏🏽

Thank you Roxanne for taking such great care of Milo duing our vacation. Sometimes Milo can be anxious when we pick him up which means he was nervous during the stay, however, he was happy and calm when we got him. So I know he enjoyed being with you and your family. Again, thank you!

My dogs had a great stay and were well cared for while I was away. Communication was easy, and I appreciated receiving updates and photos throughout their visit. It's clear that she genuinely enjoys animals and works to make them feel comfortable in her home. I felt at ease knowing my pups were being cared for, and I would be happy to book with her again in the future.

Caroline is the best! Her intake meet and greet was so thorough and made me feel very comfortable in her attention to details about my pups, preferences routine and needs. Not to mention, he absolutely adores her! The pics were flowing the whole time and when I ran into some travel delays on the way home she was able to keep him an extra night and give me peace of mind that my little baby was happy, healthy, and in good hands. I will definitely be rebooking!!

Spencer was absolutely amazing!! This was the 1st time leaving my dog for an extended time and I was nervous - he made me feel very safe and sent lots of photos/updates. Bertha came back soo happy also! Previously she may have been anxious but I could tell she had a great time and got lots of loving. It was also her birthday while I was gone and Spencer put a candle on a doggie cake and sent the cutest pic! Thankful for the experience and I will def be using Spencer moving forward. I highly recommend!

Precious. Amira, and her mother who was in town, could not have been sweeter with me and my precious pup. She was communicative, flexible, and understanding. Having an older pup, I always worry about her wellbeing but she was so well taken care of. I would not hesitate using Amira again!!

We were so fortunate to be introduced to Anne through Rover.com. She boarded our Hallie while we were in New Orleans and was very flexible in meeting our needs. It's also clear she loves dogs and knows how to care for them. We felt fully confident our dog was in great hands!

My dog has stayed with Rosemary several times and she is always so communicative and easy to work with! Rosemary sends pictures everyday and keeps me updated on what they are doing. I know Dia is happy with Rosemary because she easily struts away from me at drop off! (:
