“Penny had an excellent time with Rob and I will definitely book him again!! He sent me updates and pictures the whole time I was gone, which I appreciated. I wasn’t worried at all because she was left in amazing hands and I had the chance to meet with Rob before sending her over. 10/10 experience.”


“Michelle was very professional despite my dog going through pretty heavy separation anxiety from me. Sadly I will not be using her again because I think my dog needs to be with more of a pack, but would recommend her to anyone who's looking for around the clock care of their precious furbaby. She was flexible, communicative and very polite.”


“Andrea was amazing! She had our 2 goldens for 4 nights. She sent photos and videos everyday and kept us updated on how they were doing! They loved staying with her!! Will definitely use again!!”


“First timer to book through Rover and it was a smashing success! Juliet seemed well cared for and entertained while her family left her for a long weekend. I would definitely book with John again. I think that Juliet got to hang with another dog put her at ease in a new home. And loved that we received periodic photos of her enjoying her vacation. Thank you!”


“We had a great experience with Corey! I did not have the chance to meet Robert. But they took excellent care of my dog zoey. She has special needs (diapering) which they handled no problem and were super responsive. Would be happy to use them again!”


“Jenny was very lovely to work with! She was able to take a last minute booking for me, and took care of my doggo while I was on a business trip. She was always responsive, and frequently updated me on how my dog was doing in her care (messages, photos, etc). I will definitely be working with her again!”


“This was our first time leaving our pup for more than a few days and needless to say we were only a little tightly wound about it. But Shirley made us feel like we could breathe on our travels and actually be present in the moments. Not only did she keep him loved and cared for, but she was the ultimate documentarian, showering us with plenty of pics and videos to never feel left out. I would highly recommend Shirley for any pet care taking needs, and would love to have her watch Kaito again.”


“Christin kept us up to date on Scout’s happenings and sent daily pictures/videos. Scout made a new friend with the their dog as well. Great communication and put us at ease while we were away.”


“I really appreciate Rae taking my pup on such short notice. She was a great communicator throughout the process & made me feel comfortable about boarding my dog with her. Highly recommend & will look to book with Rae again in the future!”



“Angelica was fantastic. Pluto came back in a very good mood and was relaxed at home, which says to me that he had a good time and felt safe with her and her dogs. I booked with Angelica last minute due to a cancellation and I am so glad I did! Thanks again.”



“Highly recommended! This was the perfect fit for my pup! Baby is a senior dog with back leg issues, and Janelle went above and beyond to ensure she was comfortable and felt right at home. The care and attention she provided made all the difference. I didn’t just find a sitter—I found new friends!”



“We have had many Rover sitters and will never go with anyone else! Our Lulu had a very scary encounter with an unleashed dog (very bizarre for the neighborhood - we live close by) and Andrew protected her despite getting scratched up himself in the process. He was also able to properly clean the wound and take her to the vet, who was very impressed with his doggy first aid skills. Also, Lulu usually doesn’t love other dogs but she LOVED playing with Mac all week. Thank you Andrew!!!”


“Ruben took such great care of Winston! He sent tons of pictures and updates daily and made sure Winston was taken care of. We’ll definitely be booking with Ruben again in the future!”


“Rossana and Kurt were wonderful! They watched our two dogs for the weekend and we felt so relieved to find such great sitters. Very communicative, and sent photos and videos of the pups living their best life. Our dogs loved them from the second we walked in the door.”


“Angel was responsive and super flexible to work with. We had a last minute schedule change and he was really accommodating. Our dog came back super happy!”


“I had the pleasure of hiring Luciene as a dog sitter for my dog, a Chorkie, who can be quite tentative with strangers. Luciene was incredibly patient, allowing her to adjust at her own pace. She maintained great communication throughout, sending regular updates and pictures, which really put my mind at ease. It’s clear she cares about the pets she watches and takes the time to ensure they’re comfortable. I would highly recommend Luciene to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter!”


“Suzanne was so kind and gentle with my girl, Java, who can be a little quirky. She kept me updated with lots of pics and I didn’t have any worries about my dog’s safety and health”

“Adam was fantastic to work with! He was very responsive and timely with his messaging, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I was away for the weekend attending a wedding, and it was such a relief knowing everything was in good hands. I’ll definitely be looking to use his services again in the future!”


“Leslie and her family were awesome! We are new to the area and needed to book a sitter on last-minute notice. We even needed to extend our stay, and Leslie came through. She was consistent with updates, sending pictures and videos. We know Madeline enjoyed herself and was well taken care of. We will not hesitate to rebook. Thanks! :)”

Liliia was absolutely wonderful with our Corgi! We boarded him with her for 12 days, and he came back in such a happy and relaxed mood—it was clear he had been well cared for and loved. Liliia was very attentive and sent us regular photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Her home is clean, welcoming, and located in a safe neighborhood. We could tell she truly treated our dog like her own. I highly recommend Liliia to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and loving dog sitter.

Alex to the rescue! She was available for a last minute booking and I’m so grateful! Jhase was so happy to see her and even got excited as we got close to her house - he remembered where she lived haha! He nearly jumped out of my arms with excitement when he saw her. Safe to say she’s amazing
