“Renee and Chris are very trusted sister. Because my dolls medical condition, I had to be picky to find new sitter not to have multiple other dogs. They only accepted my dogs and no other dogs. Renee made sure to provide the medication and she is very familiar with. They sent us a lot of pictures and video and we were very happy to know how our dogs were doing every day. Renee and Chris are highly recommended and I will ask their availability when we need our dog sitter next time for sure.”

“David is sweet and kind and made us feel at ease for a week with our Mars. He sent photos and give us updates that made us feel that Mars was feeling right at home. Mars can be reactive with strangers so we gave David the whole rundown on his triggers.”

“Thank you so much!! She’s a great sitter and my puppy loved her. Very sweet and took care of my puppy while I had an emergency. Please don’t hesitate to book her!”

“Incredible sitter! I got sick on my trip, and she was so kind and helpful in letting my pup extend his stay. He’s so happy coming home from her place and I can tell she took great care of him. I’d definitely have her sit for me again!”
“Thank you Michelle for taking Pumpkin over the holidays! Michelle took great care of our 1.5 yr old dog and was very communicative and helpful coordinating logistics. Highly recommend - thank you again!”

“Megan is awesome. She has a fantastic place with a nice backyard I’m sure Max enjoyed. Max was recovering from an injury and Megan took great care, keeping that cone of shame firmly in place. We will definitely leave Max with Megan again!”

“I had great experience with Cristina and Ernesto. They took such good care of my dog, he was relaxed, happy and clearly had a lot of fun while staying with them. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in safe and caring environment. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and loving dog sitter.”

“I'm so, so happy I found Marielle! She did a wonderful job caring for my pup Aku while I was out of the country for a week. She was responsive and accommodating, and she sent the best updates of Aku and her own dog Red getting along. We even got a sweet card and photos of Aku during his stay with Marielle! I 1000% recommend Marielle and will continue to book her again if I need to! You're the best!”

“The second time I left Pilo with Terry was when I truly knew she was in great hands. Pilo began to wag her tail as we walked up the stairs once she recognized where she was. She was so excited to see Terry and her dog Ricky again! Pilo would always be anxious when I'd take her to a dog daycare center so it was very special to see her light up like that. Terry and her husband are so kind. Very happy to know Pilo is in a safe and loving home when I need to be away.”

“Allison and Gordon are our go to sitters! Omar and Audrey once again had a great time and came home happy and tired out. Even with a few days of rain and Omar's dislike of wet grass on his feet, they clearly got lots of attention and exercise. I cannot recommend them enough!”
“Laxmi and her partner were wonderful at providing lots of updates, photos, and attention to my dog while they were watching him. He looked like he had a blast and became very comfortable with them! Would definitely recommend anyone to book with them and will definitely book again myself! Thanks again!”

“Our dogs love this family! This was our 3rd stay and not our last. Mark and ohana treat our fur babies like they are part of their family. We can't say enough positive things about them. Our kids came home happy and tuckered out. In fact, they looked sad without Toby! Looking forward to their next stay! ”

“Our dog stayed with Uriel while we were away for 1 week and was well taken care of. We could tell that our pup was happy and had a great time with him! We also appreciated his kindness and his flexibilty with our pick-up time. We would definitely book with him again.”

“Shelley was so great taking care of my dog! She sent regular updates and went above and beyond with caring for her. My dog came back happy and relaxed. Would highly recommend!”

“Faviano provided the best dog sitting environment ever. He sent great photos, regular updates, and was flexible and responsive. He obviously loves dogs.”


“Alvin, his partner and sterling are such a sweet family! They took Nylah on plenty of walks, were patient, understanding, sent me updates and pictures throughout the day. It helped me feel at ease while away at work. You get a genuine energy from this couple that feels so real, would definitely book again in the future! Thank you! ✨️”

“Absolutely wonderful - she was careful to make sure the personalities of the other dogs would work in her home. I got updates every day, and Tonka was clearly happy and engaged (and LOVED being able to play with other well-mannered dogs). Sony also had a magical touch - T instantly responded to her calming presence. At our meet-up, Tonka was patiently sitting in front of her, right away, waiting to see what the plan was. Just the sweetest acceptance - which speaks to how dedicated and lovely Sony is! Good vibes, carefulness, easy happiness. I feel SO lucky to have found her here!”
“Randy has been amazing. When our dog showed signs of a medical issue, he jumped into action and ensured she received proper medical care. He was extremely communicative and ensured our dog was safe and cared for. Can’t recommend him enough!”

“This was our first experience with a Rover pet sitter and it was a great experience. Christina took excellent care of our blind dog, Taffy, and made her feel comfortable and loved. Christina sent updates, photos and videos throughout the stay and it was clear that Taffy had made a new friend. We would not hesitate to book Christina again and Taffy is looking forward to her next visit!”

Excelsior dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kazu & Yuko are paw-perfect pet sitters, they took fantastic care of Teddy Muk2 and when we were late for pick up our dog, they were understanding & even threw in a complimentary service. Their kindness and compassion for animals truly shine through. The tip was not big enough to their exceptional service. Thank you for providing a great service 🐕 Corina South San Francisco, CA

Maggie and Matt have done a fantastic job caring for Poppy! She’s a nervous rescue who takes time to warm up to new people, and they were very patient with her. They are very communicative and send copious pictures throughout the day to assure us of how she’s doing.

I definitely recommend Leila for your pet care needs. Our dog Charlie stayed with her for 4 days. Her kind, loving and patient demeanor were a good match for Charlie, who can be anxious around new people and sounds. With a fully fenced in backyard for Charlie to run around and a double door entryway, I knew Charlie would be happy, safe and secure. Leila asked good questions in advance, and she read and followed my notes on Charlie’s routine and fresh food diet. From the updates and photos she sent, I could see how at home Charlie felt at Leila’s. I am glad we trusted Leila to take care of Charlie and would do so again.

Brian was fantastic! He kept us updated throughout the entire stay, and Blue seemed to really take to him. He was very thoughtful about understanding how to best care for Blue and took the time to learn his routines, quirks, and needs. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing Blue was in such attentive and capable hands. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and would absolutely book with Brian again. Highly recommend! 🐾

I had my dog Heenae in care with Julian and her partner for 2.5 weeks, and they were amazing! They read and followed my care manual for her, and Heenae came back loved, cuddled, happy, content, and healthy. They were very responsive and sent me pictures every day! Highly recommend, will have them take care of Heenae again.

Super thankful for Durva’s help, last minute! The initial meet & greet was super easy to set up, and the care that our dog, Cali, received was wonderful. Durva provided healthy alternatives when separation anxiety prevented Cali from eating her typical foods. We received great communication and photos throughout Cali’s stay, which allowed us to vacation with the peace of mind that our pup was well-taken care of. Would definitely book again!
