“Renata and her family were great with our pup. This was the first we've used a service like this and leaving our pup for this long, so I had some anxiety about it. We were gone for 5 days and Renata gave me updates and pictures daily, which definitely put our minds at ease. We got a great vibe from her from the start and you can tell she really cares about pups and providing the best care for them, so we knew ours was in great hands. We'll definitely be using her again! Thanks again Renata!”
“A great experience that was easy, flexible, worry and stress-free. Amon and Adam work from home and adore doggies and treat them as their own. Our pup had loads of human and happy pup interaction. Plus, sunshine, backyard sniffing and neighborhood walks outside. Inside filled with cozy beds and fuzzy blankets. Looking forward to Phoebe’s next stay.”
“Selah did a great job watching Tofu for us! She checked in and sent pictures each morning, and was accessible via text throughout our time away from our furry love. She's comfortable with big dogs (Tofu's pretty strong,) which gave me a lot of comfort.. we'll definitely call her again for our next trip!”
“Recently I had to look for a new dog sitter and found Camille. After our first meet and greet I could tell Beau would love spending time with her and around her house. He loves being outside and she has a large yard which I drop him off and he's already running around long forgetting about me. She sends updated photos and is great with communication. Beau struggles eating sometimes but has not had an issue when staying here! Would recommend again and again!”
“Chan and his wife were the best!! They were super kind and sweet from beginning to end! They sent plenty of photos and updates during my dog’s stay with them which was much appreciated! Their updates put me at ease and I knew that my dog was in good hands. They were extremely accommodating to my schedule. Thank you so much!! I recommend them 100%!!”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“Ryan & Abbey were great. Lula had plenty of pups to play and nap with and had a great time. We got pics and videos every day and they are so nice. We will definitely be using them again.”
“Our dog was happy, so we were happy to see our pet satisfied! Thank you so much, Sonia. Hope to see soon! Definitely I will advise to choose Sonia as a sitter for your pet!”
“Christopher is the best! I was away for business all week and he took amazing care of my Ty. He was attentive to all his needs (Ty is a 12 yr old grumpy dog with special needs) and gave him all the needed attention. We will def be using him for all our dog boarding needs! He is responsible, sweet, attentive and sent updates of my dog.”
“Sean was great with our senior, special needs dog. We feel completely at ease that our little girl was well taken care of. Sean sent us daily updates with photos, and we have already booked him again for our vacation next month. We don't need to leave our little girl anywhere else. My wife and I completely recommend Sean.”
“Thank you Ashton and Jay for taking such good care of Rex. We loved getting updates and photos. It felt like Rex was truly cared for as if he were Ashton and Jay’s own dog. Thanks again!”
“My dogs had an absolute blast with Daniela! She has a nice sized backyard, which allowed my dogs to get a lot of their high energy out. She always kept me updated with pictures and was very thorough on their stay during pick up. 10/10 recommend.”
“Erika and Ken were absolutely wonderful! They took excellent care of coach and kept us updated throughout the visit with pics and videos. Coach tends to be a bit nervous in certain situations and they handled it perfectly. He came home happy and tired from playing. Will book with them again!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Ori! She took care of our puppy Belli and our older dog Alfie for 17 days while we were on vacation, and we were thoroughly impressed. Communication was top-notch from the start. Ori kept us updated regularly with messages, photos, and videos, which really eased our minds while we were away. It was clear that Belli and Alfie were not only well cared for but also having a great time with her. Knowing that Ori provided such attentive care meant we could truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about our furry family members. Her home is clearly a loving and safe environment for dogs, and her dedication to their well-being is evident. We wholeheartedly recommend Ori's dog boarding service to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their pets. Thank you, Ori, for everything!”
“Best sitter ever! We received lots of pictures, FaceTime videos, and quick communication. Luna had a wonderful time with this family. She also came back home so clean and smelling great. Thank you for taking care of my baby Luna!”

Monica and Larry have a good thing going. He likes her she likes him and I rest easy knowing he’s in great care with her! This is our second sitting with Monica using Rover and she makes drop offs and pic ups as easy as can be and she’s so communicative, and I get several pictures and updates through the day, that I don’t ever have to worry one bit about him. I’m super grateful for Monica! She’s 100% my go to when I travel to non pet friendly places.
Rhea took in Jojo on short notice as I had an emergency. Jojo seemed to adjust really quickly with Rhea and had a great time playing in her yard. I really appreciate her flexibility, quick responses and being able to take care of Jojo during a stressful time, especially over a holiday. All her updates and photos were really appreciated! I would definitely book Rhea again!
Ryan and Abbey were absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of our dog and treated them like part of their own family. Communication was excellent throughout—quick responses, regular updates, and plenty of photos that really put our minds at ease. It was clear from the start that they are both experienced, attentive, and genuinely love animals. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We would not hesitate to book with Ryan and Abbey again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving pet sitters on Rover.
Tamar was truly a lifesaver. She accepted my dog for boarding last-minute right before the holidays, while he was still recovering from an illness, and provided him with an incredible level of care, patience, and comfort. From the moment I met her, I could tell how experienced and compassionate she is, and that feeling only grew throughout his stay. She was attentive to his needs, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure he felt safe, calm, and loved while I was away. Knowing he was in such capable and kind hands gave me so much peace of mind during an otherwise stressful time. I honestly cannot thank Tamar enough, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a truly exceptional sitter.
If I could leave more than 5 stars for Jolie, I would, she’s gives a genuine love to my babies while we are away. She made sure to give me an update everyday. And she’s very flexible. I can tell that my furry babies had a great time with her and I’m confident and rest assured that my babies are in good hands whenever we are away. She even gave a hug to both of my babies when we picked them up! Thanks Jolie!
This is my first experience with Rover. Some friends had some negative/positive things to say so I was a bit cautious. I saw Nicole profile and review and thought she would be great. Before I made the reservation, I ask to meet Nicole. We met and I was extremely happy. She is sweet, warm, nice etc. Her place was ideal for Coco. I quickly made the reservation and was set. Coco was with her for a week. Nicole sent pictures and updates, which was nice. Everything worked well. Thank you Nicole for taking care of Coco. I felt safe, assured knowing your watching him. Will definitely use you again through Rover.
Lauren did an incredible job taking care of my fur baby. She is reliable, helpful, and truly goes above and beyond. I was under a lot of stress due to delays with my airline, and she was so accommodating. I would recommend her any time—and most importantly, I completely trust her with my Sofie. We’re both so grateful to have found Lauren. She’s been a huge help!
Eric is not just a sitter, she is Auntie Erica to my 3.5 year old high energy, curious, spastic German Shorthaired Pointer. I had to make a new profile but she has been sitting for my pup numerous times over the past year, and she has been a lifesaver to me. My pup has separation anxiety so I order for me to do anything social, he needs a sitter. Auntie Erica is no ordinary sitter- she is like Disneyland for dogs- she gives every dog she watches so much love, attention, and the adventures! Dog puzzles, one on one play time, dog parks or hikes, exercise, stimulation, endless ball fetches, cuddles, love and so much more. She is a “responsible adult” and I feel absolutely confident that LeeRoy is safe and happy with her (I mention this because not all sitters are “adults” and can handle any situation maturely). I have zero guilt leaving LeeRoy in her care, because honestly she gives him the time and energy that I cannot always provide due to my busy work schedule. She is a staple in his life and truly contributes so much to his wellbeing and happiness. She goes above and beyond every time to enrich her pup’s lives. She cares so much about each pup, which is why I consider her an auntie vs just a sitter. There are not enough words to express how amazing she is, and I am forever grateful to have found her. She is a true gem, a unicorn, LeeRoy’s favorite play partner and Auntie.
