“Amy & Kris were great. Teddy can home happy (and exhausted!) from the excitement of living with 2-4 other dogs for 5 days. We will definitely rebook with them the next time we need boarding.”
“Certainly! Here's a potential review for Cyndi: I cannot recommend Cyndi highly enough as a dog sitter! She is incredibly professional and takes her responsibilities very seriously. My senior dog requires daily medications, and she handled everything with such care and expertise that I felt completely at ease. While I was away, Cyndi sent frequent updates, including photos and messages, to reassure me that everything was going smoothly. It was clear that my dog was in good hands, and her attentiveness and communication made all the difference. If you are looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and detail-oriented sitter, Cyndi is the one!”
“Terry was great with my boy. He was hesitant at first but when I went to pick him up he actually was barking at me because he wanted to stay and play with Terry and his new friends. I have saved Terry for us to be able to book with her again.”
“Horace had a blast with Krystal, not only did he settle in so quickly, he really became apart of Krystal’s family during his stay. Krystal was prompt and sent multiple daily updates with pictures, which was greatly appreciated. I definitely plan to use Krystal again in the future, I couldn’t recommend her care enough! Thanks for taking such great care of my boy.”
“Susan was so welcoming and I felt very comfortable leaving my Goldendoodle son with her! She has a wonderful, large back yard that my dog enjoyed! She sent me photos everyday and let me know how he was doing. I am 100% booking Susan for my dog the next time I am out of town!”
“Cheryl is the best! Bentley loves going over and hanging out with her crew. I never have to worry about Bentley because I know he is being well taken care of at Cheryl’s.”
“Amy is the best. Paris always comes home relaxed and happy. I really love the photos Amy sends while I’m away. This is our third visit and we will definitely book again.”
“Matt's a pro. Transparent, clear communication, easy to plan with. Our dog also had some last minute health issues the week of his stay, and Matt handled it all perfectly. 100% would book again. Thanks Matt!”
“James was an amazing pet sitter for our 3yr old dog, Frankie! From the start, communication was excellent & responsive. He kept us updated throughout Frankie's stay, sending photos and messages that reassured me Frankie was in great hands. When our travel plans unexpectedly changed, James was incredibly accommodating and extended Frankie's stay without hesitation. Frankie was relaxed and playful at James's place, which shows how comfortable she felt there. Highly recommend James! Thank you for taking such great care of Frankie!”

She took great care of pup and kept me up to date on her walks and behavior. My dog sometimes gets separation anxiety, but ate and enjoyed all her time. She was also super flexible with me! Highly recommend!”
“Wonderful ability to get my nervous dog acclimated. We have never used Rover before and it was a great first experience. We ended up picking up our dog earlier due to a change in our plans and Tim was extremely flexible. He sent updates and took the time to get to know our girl. We would definitely use Tim again for future trips.”

Glen Allen dog parents share their Rover experiences
Cyndi was absolutely wonderful with my dog Sweet Potato. She sent pictures and videos while I was gone, which made me so happy she was being well cared for. This was the longest I have ever left my dog and I felt no fear knowing my dog was in such great hands. She treated my dog as if it were her own and I would highly recommend to anyone searching for a reliable and caring sitter.
Shareem took great care of my 16-year-old senior dog while I was away. He has some age-related needs, and I appreciated the thoughtful way Shareem handled his routine and made sure he was comfortable. Communication was consistent, and I got helpful updates that gave me peace of mind. It's not always easy leaving an older pet in someone else's care, but I felt confident he was in good hands. Overall I definitely recommend Shareem, especially if you have an older dog who needs a little extra attention.
