“Amanda and Kevin were simply amazing! they're such a lovely couple, so communicative and genuinely nice people. we had lots of photo updates and the pups looked so happy and cozy. They were very well taken care of, received lots of love from them, it was their mini NYC vacation. If we lived here, we would have them watch our pups over and over again without any hesitation. We had very good experience with them, it felt like we had our dogs stay with family. Thank you Amanda and Kevin for everything!!!”
“Kristin is absolutely fantastic. She was quick with her reply, extremely communicative throughout my dog’s stay and most importantly my dog came back very happy. I would highly recommend Kristin and plan on using her again.”
“Yun was very accommodating and my dog was happy when picked up. He kept looking back for her as we got in car. I felt at ease away as she kept me updated with pics and videos of my pup whom seemed to be having a great day while i was away. I will definitely be using her again and i would recommend her 100%”
“Michael was an awesome sitter for my adorable playful (at times needy) puppers! I received daily updates and pictures of them having a good time. Michael had great communication and was very responsive which I was appreciative of since I was so far away. I'll definitely be using Michael's services again, my puppers had a great time :)”
“Ariella saved the day!!! She took such great care of my pup for the day when I needed some last minute dog boarding. So grateful for her help and would definitely book again!”
“Victoria is a terrific sitter! My pup was kept safe, clean, cared for. She had other dogs to play with if she wanted. We will definitely be back! Great job Victoria!”
“If you want your pup to feel like they're at a home away from home - book with Tina. She and her family (two young children who will entertain your dog endlessly) will provide a loving environment with lots of play and attention. I boarded my 7 year old pit mix for several days and he felt right at home immediately. Tina was great sharing photos and videos of Lincoln playing in the fenced in back and taking lots of walks (I think he thought twice about coming back home :)). So happy I found her.”
“Nancy was great! She made sure our pup was comfortable before his stay and then sent us updates while we were gone. She is very trustworthy. We would definitely have our pup stay with her again.”
“Chris was an incredible sitter for my dog, Oreo, during an extended stay. He treated Oreo like family—kept to our routine, sent regular updates and photos, and made sure he felt right at home. I could tell Oreo had a great time and was well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Chris again. Highly recommend!”
“Anna went above and beyond the call of duty for myself and my dog. The retractable leash I provided broke on one of her walks and without hesitation she went out to get another leash for future walks. My flight coming back was delayed and she stayed up late for me to arrive to pick up. She checked in everyday with updates and photos on how things were going. Anna was super tentative and detail oriented with my pets routine and needs. She made the experience for myself and my pet very comforting and assuring throughout the duration of the stay. If you're looking for a genuinely good hearted and trustworthy sitter then Anna is for you. I would recommend her to anybody.”
“Kerry was unbelievable! She took care of our Bichon for 2 full days with such care, as if he was her own! Our dog is a rescue and can be very nervous but Kerry kept an eye on him and made him comfortable with treats and laying a blanket for him on the floor to be more cozy. We will 100% leave our baby with Kerry again! 👏🐶”
“Kierra went above and beyond to make us feel safe leaving a hope alone with a Rover for the first time. She communicated effectively during every visit, took excellent photos, and took time to really provide Hope with the care and love we wanted. She played and sang to Hope, as well as kept her food and water clean and full. We told her she didn’t need to do the litter every day, but she did anyway. Kierra was respectful of the apartment complex and timely with returning our key. Heart of gold and a friend of animals indeed. She even helped us with extending booking (when we messed up 5 times), We couldn’t have had a better experience or human to take care of Hope (who is a rescue cat but had no issues warming up to kierra)”
“The best of the best 5 stars all the way, she watched our senior boy with so much love and attention. My mom and I were updated with wonderful photos and made us both feel at ease throughout our trip. She is truly a wonderful person and we will definitely be repeat customers. So happy to have found a amazing doggy sitter for Zeus”
“Natailya, was heaven sent! She took care of Oreo like he was her own. She sent pictures and videos of Oreo for constant updates. Already booked for our August vacation! ❤️”
“Finding Leidy was such a blessing. Her first message after I sent the request through Rover started with “Good Evening … “. That somehow assured me and made me wish that everything works out and I can book Leidy. So when she agreed and the timings worked out for her, it felt like Mano and Mao would be in a good place for the 4 days. While I was so emotional during the drop off, setting everything up in her basement and explaining everything felt right. My cats are very well-behaved but they take a long time building trust so I already knew they would mostly be underneath the sofa and bed. Leidy did her best and let them be. They would come out of their hiding spots to eat and that was reassuring that they were eating and using the bathroom despite the change of environment. Overall, it was nice conversing with Leidy through the messages and through the pictures she would share. I am grateful that our first time of passing on care for Mano and Mao was with Leidy. If I ever come across an emergency again or get to know of someone who needs a sitter, I will surely think of Leidy to contact. Thank you Leidy!”
“Michelle was an amazing sitter for our nine month old, golden doodle puppy Zipity! Not only was she so accommodating last minute, but she was extremely communicative and sent us constant updates during his stay. We even FaceTimed her before drop off which made us feel even more comfortable leaving him. We are over protective dog parents, but couldn’t have felt better about leaving him in such good hands! Thank you so much Michelle for a wonderful stay. Will definitely be using you again in the future for Zippity!”

East Rockaway pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was really anxious about boarding my fur baby, especially since we had just recently rehomed him and were putting so much effort into his training. I came across a few profiles, but Alex stood out right away. He responded quickly, came to meet Leo on his own time, and from the moment we met him, we just knew he was the right fit for our boy. It’s not easy to find someone you can truly trust with your pet, but Alex made it easy. He was so communicative, kind, and accommodating. He even kept up with the commands we were practicing with Leo, which meant so much to us. While we were away, Alex kept us updated with photos and stories, and he gave Leo such wonderful new experiences — from trips to the beach to sitting at an outdoor restaurant. Alex didn’t just take care of Leo, he went above and beyond. He gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation and showed genuine love and care for our pup. I feel so relieved and grateful knowing we’ve found not only a safe and reliable sitter, but a friend and someone Leo is truly happy with. Don’t hesitate to book Alex. He is amazing !
This is my first time using Rover so I was unfamiliar with the whole process. I had lots of worries and questions but Catalina did an amazing job with my dog. She kept me updated every day and sent me lots of photos! She made this experience a great one. I will definitely be booking her in the future. Highly recommend!
I can’t recommend Samantha enough! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in amazing hands. She treated my pup like family — giving them tons of love, attention, and care. While I was away, she kept me updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog came home happy, calm, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief knowing there’s someone I can fully trust with my fur baby. I’ll absolutely be booking with Samantha again. Thank you for everything!
This was the first time we left our 12 year old pooch with someone other than family. Nancy was great. She gave us updates and pictures while we were away which kept my daughter so happy. Our dog looked like she wanted to stay longer when we picked her up. Would book again without hesitation. Thank you for giving us peace of mind during our vacation!
Michele and her family were absolutely amazing with my dog, Virgo! From start to finish, they showed so much love, patience, and care. They made him feel right at home and treated him like part of their family. Michele kept me updated with messages and adorable photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. When Virgo came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I can’t recommend Michele and her family enough we will definitely be booking with them again!

Julie is wonderful! She watched our dog Rory for a week while we were away and took excellent care of her. We could tell from the photos Rory had a lot fun, plenty of outdoor time, and got on well with Julie’s dogs Shaina and Viola. Julie cared for Rory as if she was her own, and we know Rory looks forward to her next stay with Julie!
