“Diahann is the best pet sitter ever!! The care, attention to detail, follow up, communication are exceptional. I could enjoy my trip knowing she was there taking care of and giving the best of care to my babies. 💕”

“Sheena and her family were amazing with our dog, we have a very hyper pup that loves attention and they met his needs. Sheena sent pictures and videos of our dog throughout the whole time me were on vacation. I would definitely use her as our dog sitter again.”

“Nikkole was a pleasure to work with and to coordinate care for our pups. She was very communicative, kind, and most importantly, patient!! Our dogs can be a handful, but I was definitely at ease knowing they were in good hands with Nikkole. Thank you for everything!”

“Leslie was lovely to work with and she took great care of our pup! She sent updates/photos, took suzie on lots of walks, and suzie came back to us healthy and happy. Already booking with her again!”

“Anna is absolutely amazing with Zeus. From the moment we met her, we knew he was in the best hands. She treats him like family, giving him so much love, attention, and care. Zeus always comes home happy, well cared for, and relaxed, which says everything about the environment she creates. Her communication is great, and she truly goes above and beyond to make sure he’s comfortable and safe. Anna is the one and only babysitter we will ever use for Zeus. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.”

“Our dog loves it at Kathie’s house! He’s always so well taken care of and we feel at ease leaving him there :) Will definitely rebook when we go out of town again!”

“This is the second time we have used Roger. He is very accommodating and will help you out in any possible way to make things work. He provides daily updates using both text and pictures. Our dog always comes home happy and I’m sure Roger and his family treat him like one of their own. We will definitely use him again.”

“Marlena looked after our 2 dogs one of which is blind, while we explored the park, she was incredible! Very friendly and caring, provided updates and pictures throughout the day and took great care of our babies!”

“Noelle was extremely professional, kind & passionate as a host. She provided daily updates to include detailed notes and photos of my dogs day. Her home was amazing, very clean and pet friendly. Noelle set the standard for all dog sitters on Rover and I will definitely be booking again. I wish I could give her 10 stars !!!”

“Kristine was great! This was my chihuahuas first time away from family and he was very comfortable. It didn’t occur to me there would be fireworks due to the holiday. He hates fire works but Kristine handled it well. Thank you Kristine!”


“Ashleigh is the first dog sitter in 45 years whom we have trusted to take care of our two small dogs outside of our home. Her home is lovely, and has a large, safely fenced yard. She has three of her own small, sweet rescue dogs. But all of those are just additions to Ashleigh's obvious love of dogs, her warm and wonderful personality and level of caring. Jacob and Thomas were safe, well cared for, exercised and loved. We received pictures daily, and when Ashleigh wanted to get to know them better she asked all the right questions. We've already booked a second stay! What a relief to know you can travel and your four-footed babies will be SO well cared for! Thanks, Ashleigh!”

“Thank you Ren for taking my last minute booking request. I appreciate how fast and responsive you were! Ren has provided great communication throughout Jaxx’s stay. He made sure to send me pictures! Thank you again, will book with you again for sure!”

“Murphy had a wonderful 2 weeks with Keri and Kerry. He had a great time playing with Beau and watching the Seahawks game with the family! I am so glad that I had pick them to care for Murphy and will definitely ask them again when we leave town. They were so caring and patient with my red ball of energy.”

“Boarding with Kirsten was the perfect fit for Tucker! Pics she sent show him happy and smiling, and she's so loving with her fur babies! I want to schedule another time with her 7/17 to 7/20/25!”

“Erika cared for our large German Shepherd mix for 7 days and did an amazing job! Our dog was safe, taken on walks, and given his needed level of attention, which is fairly high! I can tell she and her family love dogs and it's amazing to have such a responsible loving person watch our dog. Thank you!”
