“Great! Thanks so much for helping us take a spontaneous trip to visit with a family member in Charleston. This was clearly a loving and wonderful environment for our dog. Again, many thanks.”
“Wow! Susan was SUCH a wonderful & genuinely caring provider for my 14 year old blind/deaf boy Harvey. She was a tremendous communicator, sending us photos and updates every day while we were on vacation. I felt 100% at ease knowing that he was in her care, enjoying her clean & peaceful home while we were out of town. Thank you so much Susan, we’re so grateful for you!”
“Dana is truly the best! Our baby boy absolutely adores her, and she takes incredible care of him. He also loves spending time with her dog, Bailey—it’s such a special bonus.”
“We were a bit apprehensive about leaving our little buddy Zeke for a couple of weeks as we have never left him with someone we didn't know. When we met Judith for the first time, we were so relieved to find someone who treated him like her own. Judith also kept in touch with us and our comfort level only grew from there. Thank you Judith for taking such great care of Zeke and providing us with peace of mind.”
“Cassian felt right at home at Katherine‘s house… They were very accommodating. They have a nice big backyard and were very loving towards my pup. I highly recommend them. 🐶”
“Cody is super communicative! He kept us updated on the pups and sent tons of pictures. We felt super comfortable having him watch our dogs and would definitely use him again!”
“Phenomenal!!! We had the best experience with Monica and her family. They are so friendly and attentive. Our dog had a fabulous time. We are grateful to have found such wonderful caregivers!!”
“Rosemary took great care of our Peaches and is a delightful, caring person! Great communication and sent pictures daily. Will definitely have her watch our dog again!”
“Not only was Anne able to accommodate my extremely late notice request for boarding, but she took great care of my senior dogs! Her home and fenced yard is also set up very thoughtfully for pet care with lots of space to roam outside or inside. Very quick & efficient communication, picture of my dog while I was away, I couldn’t have asked for a better first time experience!”
“Peggy was absolutely fantastic! She kept us updated the entire time with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Teddy had an amazing time playing in the yard and going on walks—he came home happy and clearly well cared for. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating when we had to extend Teddy’s stay twice due to weather-related travel delays, which we really appreciated. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We would 100% trust Peggy with Teddy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“I’ve had Lora watch my six month old kitten twice now & she is absolutely amazing! She sends pictures and updates on what they are doing throughout the day which is so fun to see - Arthur definitely loves his time with her! I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Heaven sent!! Christal (and her sweet kiddos) were a true blessing. My dog landed in the perfect home while we were vacationing. The communication was prompt, from the moment I requested her services (at 4AM), Christal answered and took in my puppy that same afternoon. He was well cared for, seemed happy with his daily walks and play time. I appreciate the photos I would receive throughout the day. I recommend Christal and will definitely reach out to her when I need a pet sitter. Christal: Thank you SO MUCH! Max sends his love to you and your family!”
“Thank you, Shalyn, for taking such great care of Tucker while we were away. It is such a blessing knowing he is being treated like a member of your family.”
“This was my first time using the Rover app, based on a friend's referral. Because of my experience with Maria, I don't see how it could have gone any better. Maria was sweet and attentive, and she gave updates with notes, pictures, and videos. I could tell from everything I saw and received that our fur baby was loved by her family just as much as we did. I particularly liked that because Maria knew I was on a work trip, she kept updates to a minimum and provided them when requested. So, I didn't have to feel inundated with information while traveling for work. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again. She made this such a pleasant and positive experience for my family and I. Thanks Maria!.”
“Lindsay was great! She was very thoughtful and sent us pictures of our golden retriever. She sent us daily updates. We were very lucky to find Lindsay to take care of our dog. I will highly recommend her pet sitter services.”
“Tawni was very kind and flexible as to our pick up and drop off time. Milo had a great time…she clearly took great care of him. I highly recommend her to anyone, but especially more timid dogs. She was excellent!”
“My two dogs had a great visit with Cheryl. She kept me updated through their visit with texts and pictures. She gave them lots of love, especially my one with anxiety issues.”
“Hannah deserves more than 5 stars. She is truly a gem and easily one of the best on Rover. She provided tons of updates on Oshie and Oshie loved her time with Hannah!”
“Colin was amazing. He took great care of my boy Jack and sent pictures to put me at ease. His dog Sully made a great buddy to keep my boy calm and comfortable.”
Governor's Square dog parents share their Rover experiences
Cody was great! We had to leave our dog with Cody for 11 nights and I was so nervous because we were new to the area. He allowed us to do a meet and greet before booking and I could just tell immediately that he loved animals. Cody sent videos or pics every day and had great communication. Once we picked up Oliver he slept and hung lazily around the house which means that he had so much fun with the other animals! Ollie easily adjusted back to his schedule with us thanks to Cody's care. Thank you!
Maria is absolutely wonderful! She was proactive with sending updates and pictures of Sasha. I truly felt confident that Sasha was in great hands. I highly recommend Maria and will continue to use her services when I need a sitter. You and your fur baby would be lucky to have Maria!
What a wonderful experience Cabot and I had with Dominique and Peter! Every communication was prompt, personal, and included a precious photo. It was easy to see that they were treating Cabot like their own puppy and making sure he was happy. It is a stretch to leave Cabot for such a long time , but Dominique’s style of communication made me know that he was in the right place! Now Cabot will want us to plan another trip so he can return to their house and be treated like the prince that he is! Many,many heartfelt thanks!! ❤️
I’d give ten stars if I could! Allison and her family treated our high-energy lab, Chip, as if he was a member of the family. They provided great care, lots of exercise and activity, and peace of mind for us knowing he was in such great care. Chip came home tired and already looking forward to his next visit!
Lauren was my second Rover sitter I've used, but Knox's first experience. During our meet and greet, she put us at ease and I just got a good sense she was the right sitter for us. Now that I'm back, she did exactly what I was hoping for...and more. He's a cuddly boy that just loves to be with you. She sent pictures of him relaxed and being loved so I could enjoy my trip (as much as I could without him), walked him and included him in activities. She even notified one of a potential concern (just a lab, being a lab). Just a good experience overall and I will book with her again.
Kerri is excellent! She and her entire family are dog lovers and take really good care of Kobe! Kerri sends regular updates and photos which is especially lovely! Kobe gets lots of walks and playtime with Kerri’s dog Aspen. And we see that Kobe loves going to Kerri’s very much! That speaks a thousand words!
We had the absolute BEST experienc! She took such amazing care of Bentley and treated him like he was her own. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Bentley looked so happy and relaxed in every picture — and when we picked him up, it was obvious he had been well loved and cared for.
