“Nicole is such a sweet person! Her love for animals by the way she took care of my pooch. She kept me updated and sent tons of really nice pictures. I most definitely will be using her services again!”


“Nina was great with Ghibli!!! She sent lots of photos of a busy, happy boy and he came home very pleased with himself. I don’t think he missed me at all.”


“Christine was wonderful. Teddy felt right at home as soon as we got there and quickly loved her which put me at ease. She sent me photos and gave me updates on how Teddy was doing. Her home has a fenced back yard and other pups for Teddy to play with. I could tell he had a great time and was exhausted when we got home. Sign of a good visit! Will definitely book again! Thanks so much, Christine!”


“I found Cynthia somewhat last minute before a trip and she was Amazing! Very communicative! We were able to set up an in-home test run to make sure my fur child would be ok and everything went great. While away she made sure to share plenty of pictures and status updates, which I really appreciate. Would definitely recommend her services!”


“Ashton and her adorable and so well behaved doodle, Rui, were the perfect match for our Bernedoodle! It was definitely one of the best Rover experiences we've had. Ashton was reliable, responsible, and so pleasant; Rui was inviting and a perfect playmate. I am grateful I found Ashton and Rui and will be calling on them again!”


“I cannot recommend Alli enough! Our dog Bibi came home just as happy and healthy as when we left her, and Alli was great about sending photo updates. I hope that Bibi has a chance to stay with Alli and her family again in the future!”


“Kerstyn was wonderful with Rexy, and he had a great time with the other dogs. She sent regular updates and pictures, and took him on his first real run. Will use Kerstyn again!”


“If you are reading this you are in the right place. Zuleirys is very caring, thoughtful and goes the distance. She ensures your babies are good at all times and that you are kept informed with pictures and texts. If you want the best for your pup look no further.”


“Johanna is absolutely wonderful! Our sweet Millie has some extra needs and Johanna was so understanding and went above and beyond to make Millie comfortable in her home. We are so grateful to have found a reliable, kind, and understanding sitter!”


“Abigail took great care of our aging fur baby. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos. We definitely plan to reach out to her for future dogsitting!”

“Gabriela was a great sitter for Snow, She sent pictures of him and communicated with us throughout his stay. Snow looked very happy! He was right at home! I would recommend Gabriela a 1000 times over and look forward to utilizing her services again. We appreciate you!”


“Frasier is always so happy to stay with Briana ! I can always travel with so much relaxation knowing he is with his pet friends, Lenny and Spiderman, too. :) Love the adorable photo updates that keep me at ease, thank you for taking such good care of little Fray!”


“Lizzie was great, my wife and I would definitely recommend her! Since moving to the area from Florida we have had a difficult time leaving our goldendoodle with just anyone especially since we were a little hesitant on using the Rover app. But Lizzie has made us feel so much more confident in it. Her constant updates and genuine care for our dog really showed. Making my wife and I not worry at all and allowing us to enjoy our time away. We can also tell that our pup really enjoyed her and Walter’s (Lizzie dog) company. We most definitely plan on using her services again.”


“Anne Marie was so great with Chespi! She was available to do a meet n greet before our time although she was extremely busy. My dog doesn't always cuddle with a sitter on the first night, which assumedly means she's trustworthy and caring. I'll definitely rebook again.”


“Lia’s communication is always on point! Charlie and I recently moved to DC and looking for a new sitter. Lia was honestly the best sitter for Charlie! She went above and beyond for Charlie even accommodated to his spoiled picky eating behavior 😂. Honestly I want to gate keep Lia but I think everyone deserves to have a sitter like her.”


“It was wonderful to find Morgan for my older boxer who needed a quiet environment while we were out of town for the holidays. Morgan has older dog experience, took Sugar for gentle walks and sent me pics daily.”


“Our dog loves her stays with Leonard and Kathryn! We love getting all the photo updates and our dog always comes home happy… which is saying a lot for our pup since she has separation anxiety.”


“I was very nervous to leave my dog with a Rover sitter for the first time but Roshni eased my worries right away! She asked a lot of great questions to make sure she knew everything necessary to make my dog’s stay a success and sent me lots of great updates! I would definitely trust Roshni to watch my dog again!”


“Sabrina, thank you so much for taking care of Milo last week!! I really appreciated the daily updates & taking Milo to the dog park (especially on the last day since he’s a high-energy pup). Thanks for keeping me at ease.”
