“Min was amazing!! She sent photos every day and updated me on how he was doing! She is the best! Super responsive as well! Will definitely be using her again!”
“I’ve taken my pup to Jamie’s a few times now and I have nothing but good things to say! She sends pictures throughout the day of the pups playing or just hanging out. There’s always a few dogs there so it’s like an all day dog park for them!”
“Maxine was great. I felt totally comfortable leaving Banjo with her, and knew he would enjoy his time. She was also nice enough to send me multiple pictures for his overnight stay. Would definitely recommend and would use again.”
“Matthew was great. They had a good time and was spoiled. Matthew gave time plenty of attention. He sent pics of them and let me know they settled in and were ok. He was a good pet setter and I will use again.”
“Lauren, her husband, and two young boys took the very best care of our two large dogs while we were out of the country for a week! She was very kind and accommodating to our dogs needs and communicative in providing updates and photos during their stay. The home is a great setup too - with space to separate pets if needed, a large turfed backyard, and a walking trail just steps away from the house. Pups had a great time during their stay and were exhausted when they returned home. Will definitely book again!”
“I really appreciate the care that was giving to my fur baby Scooter while he was sick. Teresa is the best care giver Scooter has ever had and he Loves her. I would not want to have anyone other person care for her is I can help it. Thank you, Teresa and Ken”

“She is the BEST! This was my first time using the app because I was in need of a sitter ASAP and I was lucky enough to get in contact with this angel!!! She kept me updated about my puppy with pics/videos which I am very grateful for. I will definitely be booking with her again. I would give her 10 stars if I could. ☺️”
“My two dogs had a fantastic time with Arlie! She watched over them while I was out of town for a conference and gave me daily uodates on how they were doing. Gracie Bell and Winry were well taken care of and I will definitely be booking another stay for them with Arlie in the future. Thank you Arlie for taking care of Gracie Bell and Winry for me!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have asked for a better host. They took great care of my two babies, gave me lots of updates, and made sure they had plenty of quality playtime and walks. They even took the time to learn their traits and routines so my pups felt right at home. Highly recommend — truly a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Lu was so accommodating with pick up and drop off ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ she was a perfect sitter-attentive in every way and I know it was quite the vacation for my dog, Shipley.”
“Poppy gives 5 STARS!!! After 3.5 weeks at Mrs. Traci’s house, I believe my Poppy did not want to come back home!! 🤣 The photos and daily updates are always so appreciated! My social butterfly thrives at this house, where she gets unlimited love and cuddles. Thank you for loving on my girl while I was on vacation!! ♥️”
“Will has been a godsend. He loves all of his little charges as much as they love him. I am boarding my little girl in a time of upheaval in our lives, and having a responsible, caring sitter has made an enormous difference in mine and my soft pup's lives. Thanks for everything, Will!!!”
“Raven is the best! It was our first time leaving our pug with a sitter and she went above and beyond taking care of her. Before leaving our dog with her she took detailed notes on her routine and how to take care of her. She sent pictures throughout the day while she was with her and updated me on how she’s doing. Raven is very attentive and caring. I’m looking forward to having her watch our dog again!”
“Our dog had great care while we were away. Taylor and David were great. Good communication, great care and attention. Our dog also enjoyed playing with their dog. He came home well cared for and happy! Appreciated the pictures sent too. I would love to book again with Taylor and David. Thanks for letting our dog be a part of your family for 10 days !!”
“Amalia was so easy to work with. She took good care of my dog, Bruno and was communicative throughout the whole stay. She updates me with pictures everyday and even went above and beyond to keep my faucets dripping when the weather got too cold. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs their pet to be care for!!”
Fernwood dog parents share their Rover experiences
She was wonderful to work with, very communicative and attentive throughout the entire process. I appreciated that she sent regular updates along with pictures, which gave me peace of mind and let me see how things were going. It was clear that she genuinely cared, and that made all the difference. When Gigi returned, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which speaks volumes about the quality of attention she received. I felt confident and reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Makayla to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional support.
Mr. Matthew was amazing with my dog! 🐶 He’s super gentle and really tuned in to her personality. My pup is usually pretty shy around new people, but she warmed up quickly and had such a fun time playing with the other dogs in his care. I loved getting photo updates and little notes about how she was doing—it made me feel so at ease while I was away. She came home happy, healthy, and full of energy! I’ll definitely be booking with him again and totally recommend him to anyone looking for a great sitter!
Arlie did a great job of taking care of our Blue Heeler, Cody. He's skittish and slow to warm up to strangers, but he settled in with Arlie and did real well while we were away. Arlie has a calming, welcoming demeanor and Cody was at ease with her when he met her. Thanks for taking care of Cody for us. It meant a lot to us to have somebody we could trust while we were out of town visiting family.
Jillian was super nice and very thorough. From the moment we did our meet-and-greet, she wanted to make sure that all was understood and that we both felt extra comfortable with all plans. She is really good about making you and your dog feel welcome and at ease in her home. Her other dogs are friendly and they were so kind to share toys with my big guy. The pictures and videos she shared put a smile on my face and let me know my pup was in great hands. The entire experience was super positive, and I enjoyed Jillian taking care of my dog. She is kind, thoughtful, very experienced, and a great choice.
Erica, Brianna and Linda are amazing with my 5 yr Bichon fur baby. They give him cuddles, play with him and take lots of amazing pictures to send us during his stay with them. He comes back very energetic and lively. They are the best. I feel very comfortable leaving him with them as they give him their best attention every time and also try to teach him good behaviour. Would highly recommend them. ❤️❤️
We are so grateful to Nathan for taking wonderful care of our two Coton de Tuléars for two weeks while we were on holiday. He demonstrated true professionalism and a genuine love for animals, keeping us updated with regular messages and photos. We came home to two happy, healthy, and relaxed dogs, which gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. We’ll definitely be booking Nathan again and highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.
