“We love love love Deanna she and her family take loving care of Ty. I am always pleased once I get my baby back. He loves staying at Deanna’s home. They love him as their own”
“Cynthia was great with my 1 1/2 year old Sheltie. She allowed us to meet her and her pup a couple of weeks before our vacation, to make sure we all were comfortable with each other. Drop off day was hard for us since our Sheltie is only 1.5 year’s old and a rescue, we didn’t want to stress her out too much. Cynthia has lots of experience with rescues and was quick to pick up on her needs. During the vacation she sent us many videos and pictures, which helped a great deal. On pick up day she sent us home with homemade treats, bully stick, and a freshly laundered dog bed. I will definitely use Rover and Cynthia again!!!!”

“Kahjae was absolutely phenomenal! He responded quickly to messages and even agreed to do a meet and greet with his pups and mine before we confirmed the booking. Kahjae was very kind and wanted the best for his furry guests. He kept us updated with how our dog was doing and kept us in the loop. Highly recommend him!”

About: I grew up with all types of different animals. Cats, dogs, hampsters, rabbits, and frogs. Currently I have Angel who is 13 years old cat. I have a gated back yard where they can roam free. My door is always open. I just need to know what you need for your pet and I’ll do the rest. If they need contact and cuddles, or if they need to play ball, I am your perfect pet angel. I gate off sections of my house I do not want my dog to get into. The living room is his space. He knows his room. If I need to crate him he knows that as well. He is a very friendly dog, but even if you have an animal that does not like dogs, I have geeked off parts of my house to be able to keep them separated.
“Chelsea is the absolute best! I cannot say enough good things about her, and Maxwell is so happy and tired out after his stay! She’s communicative, always answers quickly, put my mind at ease for leaving out boy for the first time at 7 months old, and she’s literally everything you can ask for in a pet sitter! She gets dogs, and understands what they need to be happy and healthy while we’re away and that’s the best we can hope for! We will never use anyone else as long as she’ll keep us! ?”
“I really appreciate Kara boarding my pups at the last minute for the holidays. Kara took really good care of my pups. Kara kept me updated with lots of pics to keep me updated with what was going on in their day. The best part they provided transportation to and from my home.”
“Jermaine took good care of my 7 year old pit bull for a week. He either updated me first or answered my questions in a timely manner when I asked for updates. I also received some pictures throughout the week of my boy. Overall I had a great experience and will be using Jermaine again!”
“Our dog Cooper seemed so happy during his overnight boarding. He normally doesn’t eat at first when being boarded but he was enjoying a treat and eating his breakfast within moments of being dropped off. We received thoughtful updates and photos and Cooper was relaxed, comfortable and had settled in so quickly. Fantastic communication and quick responses made our trip stress free; we knew our dog was in good hands!”
“I had to go to a conference. Elizabeth took excellent care of Shelby. She provided pictures and updates while I was gone. Elizabeth was also flexible with the pick up time when my flights were delayed, which caused me to get home much later than expected.”
“Tango had a wonderful time, and was very happy with her stay with Dawn and her family. She fit right in as a member of their “pack” I was very pleased with the care she received, she had plenty of fun and stimulation too.”
“Nikkita was great! I had to travel for the weekend! She picked my fur baby up sent me picture and video updates through out the entire time I was away and dropped him off once I got back! 10/10! If you need a dog sitter you will be satisfied! Thanks again Nikita ❤️”
“Gina is wonderful! She sent us frequent videos and pictures to keep us posted and we knew our dog was having a good time there. Fifi was so well loved and taken care of during her second time away from us. Fifi definitely enjoyed her stay with Gina and her husband! We will keep using this service in the future.”

Dover pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had several plan changes leading up to Poe's stay due to weather. Tasha was completely flexible and super nice about it. She sent pics and updates during his stay and made us feel like he was being well cared for and possibly even a bit spoiled. 😉 We will absolutely be booking with Tasha in the future!
we had such a great experience with Krista, as she was our puppy's first sitter. she was great with communication, and sent photo updates! our puppy is still potty training, and she was extremely accommodating with that. she was very attentive to our puppy's needs and routine. and our puppy got along really well with her sweet dog! we couldn't be more grateful and will definitely book again!

Kahjae was very kind and wanted the best for his furry guests. He kept us updated with how our dog was doing and kept us in the loop. Highly recommend him!
Abigail and her family were great! She was very accommodating and I was able to book with her last minute. I received pictures and videos of Kash while I was gone. Which put me at ease because this was my first time booking with rover. Thank you Abigail for making my first experience the best!!
It was such a blessing in finding Myra on Rover. I was so worried since I had never left my baby anyone before. She treated him like her family and sent several messages and pictures and video through out his week stay. Once I saw how happy he was, I no longer worried. She really put my mind at ease and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation without worry. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. She's the best.
I can’t say enough good things about our experience! We needed last-minute boarding for our very high-energy Malinois so we could take a family vacation, and she came through within 24 hours’ notice. From the very start, the whole process was effortless — drop-off and pickup couldn’t have been easier. What gave me the most comfort was knowing our dog was in such capable hands. She sent frequent updates and plenty of pictures, which made it clear he was happy, cared for, and burning off all that energy. Having a Malinois can be tough since they’re not always the easiest breed to keep up with, but she handled him like a pro. I felt completely at ease while we were away, and that peace of mind is priceless. Truly an amazing experience — thank you again for taking such wonderful care of him! Highly recommend and I am simply praying she is available next summer for our family’s annual week at the beach 😂❤️
Stacey boarded our dog for 2 weeks. She sent multiple photos & videos every day. This kept us reassured that he was happy & well cared for. She has a dog also that our little guy just loved. It takes your vacation to a whole new level when you know your fur baby is safe & well cared for. Thank you so much Stacey!!
