“Leslie was wonderful with my old girl! Super friendly, communicative, and clearly knows and loves dogs. She kept me updated with lots of wonderful photos and let me know how my pup was doing. This was my first time using a pet sitter on Rover and she made the entire experience great for both myself and Winnie! Would absolutely recommend!”
“Alicia and Rick treated Sherlock like family. She was great with sending so many pictures and videos which reassured us that he was having a good time. We will be using them in the future!”
“Jocelyn & Syril were really great! It is always evident when my dog doesn’t like a sitter and I must say that he absolutely loved them. Tons of pictures, clear communication, and very flexible when I needed to extend for an additional week. I will definitely be using them again and I recommend them to everyone.”
“Very happy! My dog had a great time, was well taken care of, and if i could I would give this a 10/5 star review! Thank you for everything you did and for taking such good care of Dr Erickson!”

“Fanny was absolutely wonderful with Sage and Cheeto! She kept me updated the whole time with messages and the sweetest pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear my pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I really appreciated how attentive she was, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Charlie had his second stay at Randy’s! He came back happy and tired just the way I wanted my pup to be. Thank you for taking a great care of him. We’ll be back again!”
“My German shepherd puppy loved boarding with Erica! She seems well versed with a lot of breeds, small or large. Her constant reassurance through unlimited photos/videos truly helped. Would rebook again :)”

“1st time using Mariyana, we were nervous bc Kobe is sometimes scared of ppl and dogs lol, but she sent us a video of him living his best life! She was great with communication & didn’t over communicate (our request). Thank you for taking care of Kobe, trust he’ll be back in April!”
“Owen was great. Very responsive and my pup seems to enjoy his time while we were aware. My only ask in the future is that he provides pictures throughout the day. Otherwise, we will definitely be booking with Owen again.”
“My 2 babies had a great time with Camilo ! They came back tired (the good kind) from all the walks they had and it really seemed they had a great time. Great communication during the stay and I got regularly pictures updates (one of them sleeping on a bed, spoiled 🤗) Highly recommended !!”
“Darius looked after my pup and one of my friends pup for 5 days. I was nervous at first as this was my first time using rover but he was a gracious host. He provides daily updates multiple times a day and seems my pup enjoyed his stay. Highly recommend!”
“Zarina did a fantastic job taking care of Spritz, my pup. From the initial meet I could tell she was caring and attentive. She sent frequent pictures and updates which helped to keep my mind at ease. I’d happily book with her again.”
“Adrion had very quick communication and great patience with our puppy! I was very anxious since this was my first time having someone watch my puppy, but Adrion took great care of him in boarding. Would book again!”
“Kelsey was amazing with Myles and even included him with her friend get togethers. She was very easy to communicate with and kept me updated. We will definitely book again”
“Hilary was a great choice for my dog, Lenny. She was so attentive and provided great check ins throughout the stay. I was so happy to have found such a good fit for my dog. She was kind to me and Lenny and very flexible. He loved his stay in her home. More importantly she offers a safe place that let me not stress while I was away. I highly recommend her.”
Downtown dog parents share their Rover experiences
It was a pleasure having Darius watch my senior child. Darius was accommodating with my last minute request. He made sure to give me updates about my pup and followed my instructions when it came to his care. My dog seemed to be in good spirits when I arrived to pick him up and that let me know he enjoyed having Darius as his caretaker for the weekend.
Michelle is an excellent sitter. My little dog is shy at first, but she warmed to her quickly. Michelle has a lot of experience with small dogs and lives in an environment that is safe for them which is really important to me. She sent regular and informative updates throughout the stay. She asks questions to assure your dog’s well-being and comfort and is a very caring person. I’ll book with her again in the future and highly recommend her.
Lidia was an excellent caretaker for my pups! She was thorough in her responses to all of my questions prior to boarding and provided plenty of updates during their stay. She was even gracious enough to take the reservation last minute and very prompt with her responses. I would 100% book with her again due to her diligence, caring nature, experience with older pups, and clean environment. 💙
Tressa was amazing with Pinto. It was our first time using Rover, and sometimes our dog can be a little skittish with strangers and other dogs, but he was able to get along perfectly with Tressa and her dog. Tressa was very responsive and even sent us videos and updates which we very much appreciated.
It was the perfect stay!! We got to meet Stephanie and Booth beforehand and instantly Bart found a best friend in both of them. It gave me a peace of mind knowing Bart was the only other dog with Booth. I could tell he loved his stay and Stephanie was very quick to communicate and send updates. Will be booking again.
Isabella is amazing! I reached out to her last minute and she accommodated my husky for the weekend. She really got to know him, and kept me updated the whole time I was away. She really has a way with pets! I would recommend her again and again, and I will be coming back to her when I need a sitter in the future! Thank you Isabella!
