“Ellen took amazing care of my dog, Spud! I got daily picture check-ins, and Spud clearly felt at home—she ate all her food, got to socialize with other dogs, and even lounged on the bed and pillows. It’s clear Ellen treats the dogs like family. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“I had a great experience with Amy taking care of Tilly while I was out of town! Amy was very communicative and flexible when I had to pick up Tilly later than expected.”


“Amy was so good with Presley! She took care of her just as we would at home. She was so good as staying on top of Presley’s pills too. Would definitely choose Amy again to watch our Presley!!”



“Dawn and Spike are wonderful! Dawn's place is super cute and you can tell that she really loves dogs. I'll definitely use her again the next time I'm in Columbus!”


“First time ever using Rover or trusting someone other than family with my dog. Vanessa was amazing. I was able to enjoy my vacation worry free. She made Star apart of her family for those few days. Highly recommend.”


“Jessica was an absolute delight. My dog Lucy loved her as soon as she met her. Jessica kept me updated throughout the weekend, sending me pictures and letting me know how much fun they were having. We were in town for a wedding. Knowing Lucy was being so well cared for allowed my husband and I to enjoy our family and the festivities. Thanks Jessica!”


“Emily watched Ernie for a long weekend. This was Ernie’s first stay overnight that he wasn’t with family. Ernie had the best time and was well attended to by Emily. I received lots of pictures and prompt responses to my messages. Thank you, Emily!”

“The absolute BEST! Doodle was so happy and pleased when he came back home, and she did an amazing job keeping me updated on Doodle while I was on vacation. THANK YOU!!!”


“Lynsie was an INCREDIBLE for our sweet Olive! This is the first time using Rover and we have found our perfect sitter. From sending beautiful pictures and updates throughout the day to letting us know some eye discharge Olive was having and getting her what she needed while we were gone, we cannot recommend Lynsie and her Olive enough to care for your pup!”


“Our normal dog sitter was going on vacation when we had to leave town. We have a very hard time leaving our pets with just anybody. Both of them are big hunters so we always worry they’re going to get out of the yard or jet out the door. After meeting Sasha and visiting her home, we felt completely safe leaving the dogs with her. She has a fenced in backyard, agility course, and several parks nearby. She treated our dogs just like part of the family! Every single day Sasha sent us pictures of the dogs having a great time playing. Anytime I contacted her she got back with me right away. They even got Pup cups from starbucks. (Sasha texted me ahead of time to make sure it was ok for them to eat them.) When we picked up the girls she left us a lovely note, a picture of each dog, and two cupcakes for dogs. We highly recommend Sasha and are so happy our girls had a good time with her family.”


“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nahla was amazing! She watched my dog over the weekend and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. She sent me frequent updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Nahla and would definitely book with her again!”


“Cecelia was amazing with my dog while I was away! She was super attentive, kept me updated with sweet photos, and treated my dog like her own. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog. I couldn’t have asked for better care. Highly recommend her!”


“Paige always takes great care of our pups! This was our second booking with her and they were so excited to see her when we dropped them off. It made leaving them for the weekend much easier and they always have fun there!”


“Marena was a fantastic sitter for my dog Max! She gave me frequent updates and had no issues with the provided instructions for his care. Marena took such great care of Max, I don’t think he wanted to leave when we picked him up :) I will definitely have her watch Max again in the future.”


“Hallie was awesome with our dog for a long weekend trip. She has a nice clean home with a fenced in yard. We felt really comfortable the whole time and did not worry about Foss at all. He did great with her pups and it’s obvious she cares so much about our dog’s well-being which is exactly what we want when leaving our dog with someone. She was quick to respond to all of our messages, too.”
