“Thrylos’ stay with Robin was absolutely wonderful. Their home is so cute with a nice backyard that they were able to spend a lot of time in. Robin was also amazing in providing updates throughout the day and ensuring that he doesn’t feel taken care of. Such a sweet and caring couple I couldn’t recommend them more !!”
“Araceli was amazing she took my dog on in very short notice for the holiday weekend. Very kind, clean home very dog friendly. She treated my dog as if she was her own. She gave updates which was very appreciated. I would 100% book again with her. Thank you so much Araceli.”
“Lourdes was a wonderful dog sitter! She was patient and attentive to my dog, Winston, who tends to be shy and anxious around new people. She took him on his own staycation while we were out of town for the weekend- seeing the neighborhood, dog park, etc. She was very communicative with updates and photos on their current adventure/outings. She was so kind to get my dog extra food when he was being a picky eater. Winston was happy and relaxed when I brought him home, which means he had a good experience on his staycation! I would highly recommend Lourdes!”
“Alisiene was the perfect sitter! Our pup can be very timid - she was patient and loving and definitely won him over. We appreciated all the daily updates with great photos and were able to enjoy our trip more knowing that our little guy was in the best hands :)”
“Karla was super sweet with my girl Mila. Sent pictures and updates frequently throughout her time with her. She was also very patient with puppy energy and took her to my local dog park so she can still be around her friends while I was gone (and let out some energy). Would definitely recommend!”
“Jessica was an amazing sitter while we were away. She was kind, thoughtful, and was even able to watch our kitten Dolly for the weekend with such short notice. She sent us updates about how Dolly was adjusting along with photos. It’s clear her home is full of animal lovers! We could not recommend her more. Thank you Jessica!”
“10/10!!! Compared to my first experience with another Rover pet sitter, Yantian was so much better! He was very friendly during our first meetup and immediately made us feel comfortable leaving Churro with him. Throughout the day, he sent plenty of updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing Churro was having a great time. Yantian also followed all of our instructions, which we really appreciated. He was very flexible with our schedule and kindly accommodated our preferred pick-up time. Thank you, Yantian! We’ll definitely be booking with you again soon.”
“We needed a last minute overnight dogsitter for our senior dog and are so glad we found Jinny! She was quick to respond to all messages, sent updates and pictures which made it all a great experience. Highly recommend Jinny!”
“Thank you so much, I know Gus had a great stay with you! You’re great with communication and I loved the daily updates 😊 Would definitely book again if I weren’t moving!”
“Alex was outstanding! He was super communicative and attentive to our sassy Frenchie’s needs! He sent lots of photos and made our dog feel right at home. We highly recommend Alex!”
“This was our first time having Nayra take care of Zoe and I have nothing but the best things to say about her! She took incredible care of her and I loved how she updated me daily with photos of her having a great time. She took her to the park I believe every day and she got to play with the other dogs in her care. We would love to have her take care of Zoe again soon! Thank you, Nayra!”
“5 Stars – Highly Recommend! Mike was an incredible sitter for our pup, Bloo! From the very beginning, he was communicative, professional, and so caring. He kept Bloo busy every day with plenty of activity and playtime, and it really showed—our baby came home happy, healthy, and totally exhausted (in the best way!). We especially appreciated the daily photo updates—seeing Bloo living his best life made us feel so at ease while we were away. Mike clearly treated him like family, and we’re so grateful for the love and attention he gave. If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and genuinely great with dogs, Mike is your guy. We’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Marissa was so sweet and instantly made me feel comfortable leaving my dog with her while on a Mexican vacation. I got a few photos throughout the stay, George was a happy boy and he now has a new buddy Luna. I would 💯 use her services again. Thank you Marissa!”
“Artie was wonderful with my two dogs! They can both be a little nervous and shy, but I could tell they really enjoyed their time with him. He kept my mind at ease and sent photo updates throughout the stay. His yard is extremely secure and he has cute dogs of his own for everyone to play with. I highly recommend Artie if you need a reliable and cautious sitter!”
“They were very sweet and took great care of my dog on her first time with a sitter. They also sent me lots of photos and responded to messages quickly. I very highly recommend!”
“Heather is truly a godsend! I needed someone last minute and she was available and I do not regret my decision. She took care of my dog as if he was hers and I truly appreciate her. She sent me pictures of him all day and everyday. He had so much fun with her and I can truly say that I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Heather!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for our Oreo! From the very beginning, she was attentive, kind, and clearly experienced with dogs. What truly set her apart was the daily updates—every day we received texts with photos and little notes about how Oreo was doing, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Oreo looked so happy and well cared for in every picture! It was clear she treated him like one of her own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pup. Thank you again Katherine for everything!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 15. I walked and watched my neighbors, friends and family’s dogs when they went on vacation or during the day for potty breaks. I love dogs and have always had a dog of my own. I will treat your dog as if they were mine. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I walk my dog every 3 hours with a long walk in the morning and evening. I walk my dog very frequently, with a long walk in the morning and evening adding up to 5 miles a day. I can also take your dog to the dog park if you and your dog are comfortable with the dog park. I can crate and give medicine if necessary.
“Lisa was lovely and took great care of my girls! She was very responsive to all my messages and kept me updated with lots of photos. I would absolutely book with her again!”

East Village dog parents share their Rover experiences
Muffins has made friends for life in Austin and his family! Muffins is normally very anxious when it comes to visiting new places and meeting new people, but it was immediately clear after his first day that he really enjoyed himself! Every morning for drop off, Muffins was always very excited to see Austin. And at pickup, Muffins was content from his day of play! Austin is also great at providing updates and pictures of our boy during his stay which put our own separation anxiety at ease! There is no question we will use Austin again when it comes to Muffins' care!
Marisol and her boyfriend treated our boy so well he was pouting all the whole trip home. They treated him like he was part of their family and we truly appreciate it because this was our first time using a pet sitter and our boys first time being away from us since we got him. Plenty of walks, rubs and even took him to the dog beach. Marisol was always in communication with us and updated us frequently. She always asked permission to give him things or take him out if she thought it was something we should be informed about. Plenty of pictures and videos. When I say do not hesitate to book a stay with Marisol I mean it. Thank you for giving our boy a great pupcation and we hope to reunite Jax with you on our next trip out.
Would give 10 stars if I could - Melina was an amazing dog sitter for my senior pup who required a lot of TLC with a torn ACL. I had quite a set of instructions for Melina to follow and she was so patient and detail oriented around the care she provided Penny. She also gave me a ton of updates throughout so I knew Penny was in good hands. Would highly recommend Melina to all the pup parents out there!
Brianne was amazing with my 11yo Husky! She was communicative, accommodating, and sent lots of pictures that put me at ease. She also administered his meds and let me know how he was reacting. It is hard to leave a senior dog with someone new but Brianne was a pro and Stark had a great time with her and Olive. I definitely recommend Brianne with high confidence!
Helen was an awesome sitter! Thank you so much for taking such great care of Romeo for his 5 day stay while we were out of town. Helen was very attentive to my dog’s needs and followed our schedule, structures and routines. I appreciated the check ins and loved the pictures! It was great to see how comfortable Romeo was in your care, and to see your kindness and passion for what you do. Thank you so much for your service, we highly recommend your sitting, and will definitely rebook again! 🤍
Alisiene is very easy to work and very calm. She just allowed Roxy to sniff and roam until she was comfortable and found her spot perched on top of a sofa looking out the window. I’ll be leaving Roxy with her again! I really enjoyed the daily note and photo Alisiene sent.
Kara is my "go to" for when I visit San Diego with my Pomeranian, Sophie. She is very responsible, communicative and very kind to her. in fact, Sophie hesitates to leave Kara and her dog (mine does not make friends easy with other dogs), but warmed up quickly and Sophie was even playing with her at the end! This was Sophie's first overnight stay with Kara and it was great!
Jessica was wonderful and accommodating! We have a rambunctious and somewhat anxious dog - she came back to us cheerful and calm. We were favorably impressed. In addition to her dog-handling, we ran an hour late to pickup due to poor planning on our part - Jessica handled it gracefully and was very kind about our tardiness. All around great first experience on Rover - would happily entrust our pup to Jessica again!
Karla was great with our dog Mickey while we were away for 5 days! He had a few potty accidents, but she handled everything so calmly and kindly. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which really put our minds at ease. Mickey looked super happy and comfortable with her. We’d definitely book Karla again—highly recommend!
