“My pup had the best time! When I arrived at Mari’s home, she showed me to the outdoor play yard. I received quite a few pics of my pup full on sprinting and having the best time meeting other pups in the neighborhood. Mari’s communication was excellent. I received pics every few hours and my very high energy pup arrived home after her stay and immediately passed out. Not an easy feat for a high energy doodle! We will most definitely be back!”
“Katherine was absolutely fantastic with my shy, nervous dog Toffee. Toffee was able to relax and have a good time with her and when I came to pick Toffee up my pup was clearly comfortable and had been well cared for. The communication throughout the stay was also excellent! I can’t recommend Katherine more highly :)”
“Brianna is fantastic - not only did she save me when Riot’s usual sitters dropped out just 10 days before a business trip, she also took time to meet with me and reassure me, cared like a pro for Riot’s ears when of course she got an ear infection and a hematoma 3 days before the trip, sent so many cute pics and vids of Riot, put up with her fire alarm barks, and just generally cared for my annoying little baby so well. Brianna is a fabulous human being. Thank you so much!”
“A heartfelt thank you to Bruce and Carolyn for the amazing care you gave Ozzy while we were away! You make an incredible pet-sitting team — I truly appreciated all the updates and adorable photos. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands!”
“Mikayla and Justin took great care of Rigatoni— were easy to communicate with, provided check-ins, and genuinely cared about her well-being. So grateful!”
“Stephanie was wonderful with Max while we were away for the holidays!! She was very responsive and sent us lots of pictures and updates. Max had a great time at her house! Would highly recommend”
“Amanda & Michael were perfect for our 2 pups. Great Communication and incredibly flexible when we ran into travel issues. The dogs were safe and had a blast in a nice yard with their own dog. Will definitely re-book.”
“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
“Karina & Teresa were amazing sitters for my dog. They are kind, attentive, and clearly love what they do. They treated my dog very well and made sure he was comfortable . They also sent lots of photos and videos throughout the stay, which really gave me peace of mind! I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring dog sitters.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed the peace of mind that came with leaving my dog in her hands. She was very flexible with timing. Quick to respond. And took care of my dog exactly as I needed. I will 100%. Board my good boy with her. Whenever possible in the future.”
“Zuleima did a fantastic job making my dog feel like he had a home away from home! I got frequent updates with pictures and he even got extra walks. Thank you so much!”
“Claudia and Steven are a lovely couple and they were amazing with our dog Ellie. They communicated with us multiple times daily with updates and photos. Thanks to them we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Ellie was well cared for. Will definitely have Claudia and Steven look after Ellie on our next vacation. You will not find better sitters for your pet!”
“Bianka was wonderful with my dog Howie. She was responsive and provided frequent updates while he was in her care! I’d absolutely recommend Bianka to anyone in need of a dog sitter. :)”
“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! We booked Mariana same day and were nervous due to it being our puppies first time with someone new. She far exceeded what we expected. She gave us updates on the hour, photos, videos and even cooked chicken for our very picky puppy. She made our dog feel a part of her family!”
“She was great with our pup! She sent lots of pictures and he was active with toys. Her family made him feel welcomed. We highly recommend Sasha and will use her again.”
“Anthony (and Monique) provided the best care for our large, high-energy pup while we were out of town. They are both extremely responsive and easy to communicate with, and really care about dogs. They have a great home for watching dogs too, on a quiet street with a very large fenced in yard. We got several photos and updates while we were away that reassured us Aldo was having a good time (and behaving himself) and we will definitely be bringing him back next time we have to travel without him!”
“Noemi and David were absolute amazing hosts. They were able to accommodate me last minute and were very communicative during Teddys stay. They have a a sweet, friendly family who truly love the pets that stay here. I recommend these hosts. 10/10”
“Monique was great and very flexible! She sent pictures and videos throughout Carter’s stay which made me very comfortable for Carter’s first time away. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Michael is awesome!!! He took very good care of our high energy 20-month ‘puppy’ for 8 days while we were out of town. Upfront, he was very quick to respond, flexible with scheduling re: meetup, drop off, and pick up. We got constant updates and pictures, and he was very understanding and professional regarding our high energy pup. She loved having a backyard to run around in, and she had an added benefit of staying with other dogs (nice for her as an only dog). Would definitely leave our dog with michael again!”
“Jayme is amazing! I appreciated her attentiveness to Jazzy’s idiosyncrasies . She texted whenever she had questions in a way that I knew she really cared about him. Thank you for taking such good care of my little boy!”
Dwight dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience having mari watch our 5 year old dog. She accepted our request with less than 24 hours notice when our original plans fell through and was a huge help. She also agreed to do a meet up that night to meet our dog and introduce her to their resident pup before we dropped her off for an overnight stay the next morning. We got lots of pictures & updates which was so fun and appreciated :)
Bianka is the best sitter I have ever worked with. She took care of my baby Olivia for a whole weekend. She sends regular updates and made sure my puppy was happy and loved. Also, I was stuck overseas due to a snow storm and flight cancellations and Bianka gave me that piece of mind telling me that my puppy is safe with her. She’s an amazing person and amazing sitter. Recommend 10/10. Will definitely contact her if I ever need another sitter. She’s a gem!!
We were so happy to find Anthony for our dog. I could tell from the first meeting Anthony takes this responsibility very seriously and has taken many steps to ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone. I had some trepidation about how our dog would do in this new environment but Anthony’s professionalism and regular updates put me at ease. Very grateful to have this option.
Dax had an excellent stay with Monique and Anthony! They are so kind and knowledgeable, and accommodated a change in our arrival time, we were delayed because of snowy weather. I received lots of great pictures of Dax settling in and playing with their dog. Monique and Anthony are very knowledgeable about dogs and their interactions and behaviors, and take the time necessary to introduce the dogs to each other. When we picked him up, Dax was happy, well cared for and rested. Usually he’s over-eager to see us and fairly tired after an overnight stay. Not this time! We will definitely have him stay with Monique and Anthony again in the future.
Michael went above and beyond to care for our dog Franklin. When we had to extend a trip out of town at short notice, Michael was quick to help us find a solution and was happy to have Franklin stay an additional few days. Further, Michael even went to the store to make sure Franklin had a familiar brand of food during his boarding extension as it was on such short notice. I couldn’t recommend booking with Michael more, he is the best of the best.
Andrea was super nice and managed to accomodate our last-minute Christmas booking. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, and our dogs looked quite happy and relaxed. Her house has a fenced-in area that they loved to play in. Most impressive of all, though, was that Andrea let the dogs into her bedroom (they are used to sleeping next to us), on Christmas no less. Our dogs seemed in great shape when we picked them up after their 3 day stay. She seems to be a very caring and careful dog sitter. We would have no hesitation in our leaving our dogs with her again. Thanks!
Zuleima and her family are so great! They have a very calm energy and sweet home. Our pup settled right in with them and thoroughly enjoyed himself over the long weekend. She was very communicative and sent pictures each day. We wouldn’t hesitate to have them keep Bear again.
This was our first time having someone outside our immediate family to watch over our dog Quincy. So we weren’t sure how he would do with someone he didn’t know, especially with another dog in the house. But I knew from the first time I met up with Nafiye to meet Quincy, that everything was going to be ok. He was great with Quincy and he felt very comfortable and responded well with her. He got a long very well with her very trained dog and he had a very nice stay with her while we were out of town. We liked that it was very important to her that she spent a little bit of time with him before committing to watch g him for us. She sent pictures and videos of his stay and playing with them. We will definitely be using her in the future, if she is available.
Absolutely amazing! We were traveling through the area, and needed somewhere for our girls to stay. Diana had awesome communication, was so sweet to our pups, and made us feel very calm! So thankful we had them stay and if we’re ever back in the area, we’ll use again!
Steven and Claudia were amazing with our 11 year old Puggle, Finn. They’re such warm people and naturals at relating to dogs. We rarely leave Finn but he took to them, and to their dog, Nacho, almost immediately. Dogs can definitely sense good “dog people” and this was one of those instances. I highly recommend Steven and Claudia. They’re attentive, highly communicative and trustworthy!
