“She was absolutely sweet and send me a lot of pics and updates so we could fully enjoy our trip with peace of mind. In pictures, my dog looked so relaxed and I could tell she was taking a great care of my dog. Thank you!”
“Nina and Tony are amazing! They were so good with our sweet Pebbles while we went away for over a week. We can tell Pebbles had a blast, they took care of her like she was their own. They are also just very nice people, great updates and easy going. Pebbles made a couple of new best friends and she will absolutely be going back some time!”
“Nancy was a great host for my dog. She was very responsive and provided me frequent pictures. She and Toucalit are really nice and my dog looks like he had a great time. Thank you both so much!”
“Diana took amazing care of my dog, Romeo, while I was away. It’s never easy leaving your fur baby behind, but knowing he was in such loving and responsible hands gave me complete peace of mind. Diana treated Romeo like family she was attentive, patient, and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. I truly appreciate her updates and the extra love she gave him. I highly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dogsitter. Thank you so much, Diana!”
“I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very kind and friendly with dogs. Our dog is anxious in new places. Lily clearly understood her nature and took excellent care of her. This is the second time leaving our dog with her and our dog loves Lily. She sends daily updates with pictures which helped us be at ease and enjoy our vacation. Lily is the best and is one of my go to dog sitters.”
“SO GREAT! This was POLAR opposite of our very first experience using Rover. SO GLAD WE TRIED ROVER AGAIN! Jie and her family took such good care of our dog. She gave us piece of mind with her responses to our text and photos sent while we were away. A five day stay and what a relief to know our pup was SAFE, loved, being well cared for and looked after. All of the things she says will happen do! When we picked our fur-ball up she was happy and healthy! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”
“Marsha was so sweet and sent us pictures of the Dogs during their stay. She was very good at communicating and sending pictures of our dogs. Definitely would board with her again!”
“I had the pleasure of having Siqin take care of my dog, Jack, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was incredibly responsive and kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, so I always knew Jack was in good hands. It was clear that Jack was comfortable and happy, and I loved seeing how well he got along with her. Siqin also made sure to take Jack on regular walks, which he absolutely loved. It was such a relief knowing that Jack was getting the care and attention he needed while I was away. I can't recommend her enough—she’s professional, caring, and truly passionate about pets. If you're looking for a dog sitter, Siqin is the one!”
“It was a pleasure having Raya stay with Neo and Ken. The dogs hit it off right away and Ken was so good with updating us for her entire stay. I would highly recommend him and we will definitely do future boarding with him.”
“Jay is a kind and wonderful dog boarder. Our cattledog, Arrow, was so well taken care of and was so relaxed during his stay with Jay. We got several timely updates with pictures and Arrow looked perfectly content in the new environment. I would highly recommend Jay and will be using his service again.”
“Melody took great care of Jarvis again! She stayed on top of his food and medication just like last time and treated him like her own. I really appreciate how detailed she is. She kept notes on his potty breaks, meals, meds, and even sleep, which gives me so much peace of mind especially with his medical needs. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly cares a lot. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Dana really took a very good care of our pet, Dasher. Our original sitter canceled last minute and I found Dana on the Rover app. She made sure Dasher felt at home, safe, loved, and cared. She was also very responsive to messages. She shared pictures of Dasher with us while we were away. I could see Dasher got really attached to Dana and was constantly looking for her while we were trying to bring him back. Recommended 100%.”
“Judi was absolutely incredible. She's extremely knowledgeable about dog behaviors and was so helpful with training Latte, as well as attentive and kind throughout Lattes stay. Judi sent lots of updates, videos and pictures and Latte definitely had a blast”
“We were very happy with the care our pup received with Janine and her family. We were nervous as this was Lola’s first time away from us. Regular walks, lots of interactions and playtime; Janine gave us regular updates and answered all our questions. We will be back for any future care for Lola and would highly recommend Janine!”
“Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!”
“Shaira took wonderful care of my dog Chubby. She took her out on walks and played with her. I am glad that my dog got to have her own vacation too when we were out of town. Shaira also sent us multiple updates with pictures and videos every day 💓!”
“Kaila and Jay were awesome taking care of Louie! They kept me updated on his activities and took him to the park for walks. I could see through videos and pics that he was happy at their place. Kaila kept me informed of his behavior and any change she’d see. Louie found a spot on the couch just like he does at home, so I knew that he was very comfortable with them. Thank you so much for taking care of Louie for the past 10 days! I’m sure he’ll miss you too. I hope you’re available next time we need it!”
“Elise made Bowie feel right at home - quality care for my senior dog. Great proactive communications - always keeping me in the loop on how Bowie is doing and even provided daily photos of daily activities. I would highly recommend Elise and look forward to having Bowie stay with her again in the future!”
“Sriram is a fantastic sitter! I’ve had mixed luck in the past, but he exceeded all expectations. My dog was treated like family, enjoying tons of walks and play in a safe, spotless home. Sriram’s constant updates and photos gave me total peace of mind. I picked up a happy, relaxed pup who clearly enjoyed his 'vacation’ lol. We will absolutely be booking with Sriram and his awesome family again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old, and own a small maltipoodle who loves to go on walk and meet people. I can provide excellent care for all pet breeds of different sizes. I love to spend time with all types of pets, and have been taking care of pets for 4 total years. Your pet will have a great, comfortable, and fun stay with me! I’m currently a sitter on Rover and would manage the care of pets throughout the day. I also regularly go to local libraries and I am able to tend to the care of pets when necessary. I would be able care for pets overnight as well as take them on walks as it fits into the routine of caring for personal pets. I am able to care for pets utilizing the experience that I have cultivated with my own dog. I regularly walk and feed a miniature dog and can supervise another pet and take them on bathroom breaks. Throughout the day, I can care for another pet within the house and also allow them to stay within the backyard. I could send updates and fulfill requests of owners to provide fresh water, treats, or preparing meals.

Dana was able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Communication was excellent from start to finish. She was very responsive and sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Most importantly, our dog came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to others looking for a reliable sitter.
Hi Diana, Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Sudu! When I picked him, it was obvious you put great love and care into every moment with him!, Knowing Sudu was in good hands made all the difference. We came home to one happy dog, and that says everything. Thank you also for sharing great photos and videos while we were away. I am sure Sudu will love to combeck to you again! Until next time.... Thank you!!!
We recently booked Savita to care for our dog Ayra. Since the time I requested the booking Savita and her husband were both super communicative. They made sure we had a meet and greet before we finalize them as Ayra’s caregiver. The way they introduced Ayra to their dogs and the way they made Ayra comfortable around themselves speaks about how much they care. From drop off to pick up Savita was always in touch with us and super quick with her response. Ayra came home happy and tired. We will definitely have Ayra board with them again.
5 stars care and a happy pup ! Pratima took wonderful care of Vaayu, and I truly can’t express how relieved and grateful we felt having him with her. Leaving your dog with someone else is never easy, but she made the whole experience very reassuring and stress-free. She sent thoughtful updates every day about his food, mood, and temperament, along with videos that made us feel connected to him while we were away. She carefully monitored his food intake, made sure he was comfortable, and kept us updated as he settled in and started feeling better. What stood out most was how caring, patient, and attentive she was with him. It was clear that Vaayu was not just being watched — he was genuinely cared for. He came back to us happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. This was honestly one of our best experiences with a dog sitter, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Pratima to anyone looking for loving and trustworthy care for their pet.
This was our first time with our dog staying overnight somewhere so we were a little apprehensive, but Janine made us feel at ease by giving us a tour of her house and how well she cares for her dogs. Maple also gets to play with other dogs so she loves staying there.
Wonderful first experience! Phina was thoughtful, communicative, punctual, and clearly very experienced with dogs. We really appreciated the regular picture updates, attention to safety and well-being, and how accurately she set expectations throughout the stay. Millie was very well cared for, and we felt completely comfortable the entire time. Would absolutely book again!
Sasha & her family took great care of Gigi. Sasha was very kind, caring, responsive, & professional. She kept us apprised with regular photos & video clips. Her home was perfect for our dog with a great fenced backyard & a family to pet her throughout the day. We highly recommend Sasha & hope to book with her again in the future.
Jennifer did a great job looking after our dog Bruno. We really appreciated the photo and video updates — it was always good to see how he was doing. She walked him twice a day, and Bruno clearly enjoyed his time with her. We would definitely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!
Super wonderful family, Percy had a great time by the looks of the pictures and got lots of belly rubs. They were very receptive to his routine and gave him a good amount of exercise. Coordination was also easy and communication/responsiveness during his stay was quick. We appreciate them taking good care of our boyo while we were out and about in San Jose. Sidenote: they also have a very lovely house in what looks to be a really good neighborhood. Thank you guys!
