“We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Jordan!! She was so reassuring and sent updates throughout our dogs stay. Very affordable and both me and my dog were very satisfied with our experience. I will be a repeat customer!!”
“I am certain my dog just had more fun on vacation than I did. If you have an older dog, Reagan is so skilled in taking care of them. I always worry about leaving my old girl with others when I travel, but Reagan is in top of it. I will be booking with her again and I recommend others do as well.”
“Heather was so great watching our dog Buster! They were very welcoming to him. She sent me some pictures and updates about how he was doing throughout his stay which was so nice! Heather is super fast with communication and was flexible with what we needed for drop off and pick up. Overall it was a really great experience! I would definitely recommend Heather and we would absolutely have our dog stay with her family again!”
“Jamie and her family were very accommodating. My pup felt at home the moment we walked in the door. Even though my dog isn’t used to being around other dogs, she was very comfortable and the other dogs were very well behaved. We will definitely choose Jamie again!!”
“10/10!!! Lauren’s family did a great job making our boys feel at home while we were away. Lauren was such a gracious host and our pups thoroughly enjoyed their time with her family!! We know there were many snuggles, treats, walks, and lots of love over the week we were gone. The videos and photo updates were appreciated and helped ease our anxiety. We will absolutely be using Lauren & Corey again for future dog boarding needs.”
“Jaden did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Bella, over the Fourth of July weekend. This was my first time leaving Bella with someone I didn’t know, so I was pretty nervous. Jaden made the whole experience so much easier by sending regular photo updates and keeping me informed, which really helped put my mind at ease. It was clear that Bella was well cared for and happy. I truly appreciate the care and communication, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jaden again. Highly recommend!”
“Zach has watched our highly anxious dog twice now and he has done such a great job both times!! We can enjoy our vacations knowing our dog is in such great hands with Zach!”
“We booked with Lezlie a last minute 3 days board sitting for our dog Pete. She was supper accommodating and took great care of Pete. We appreciate all the pictures and how we were kept informed about his day. We can tell he had a great time! And would love to rebook with her next time.”
“My dog had a blast at Marnie and Jeffery's place! Iggy loved their dogs and family members. Marnie sent me photos every day and I felt great knowing she was well-cared for. This was the first time I used Rover and I was a little anxious, but this was an excellent experience. I would definitely go with this family again, they're awesome!”
“Tracy was great to work with, very compassionate about her duty as a sitter and made Hank feel loved and appreciated!! I also appreciated that she was understanding about me being late for pickup as I am just getting settled into a new environment. I hope and look forward to using her again in the future!! Her darling Stella who is as well a Yorkie was just a cute girl. We loved Tracy!”
“Pup loved his time there! He actually seemed torn - go home, or stay with the fun sitter! He can be quite a handful, but they seemed to love him! Definitely going to be a return customer!”
“Excellent experience. We were nervous about leaving our baby and Annette made it easy and cared well for him while we were gone. Definitely will be asking her to take him again if we need service in the future.”
“Mattey and her fiance Wyatt took GREAT care of our two dogs over a long weekend. This was our first time using Rover and leaving the dogs with someone, so I was pretty nervous and worried they'd be a handful. Mattey sent me frequent photos and videos, along with reassuring notes that everyone was getting along great. Our dogs were tired and happy when we picked them up, and I'm very grateful to Mattey for making this a great experience. We'll be using Mattey again in the future every time we need a dog sitter - I recommend her 100%!”
“Very nice, loving family - your pets will be happy and well taken care of. We felt very safe leaving our 14 year old bospin Bailey with Tara’s family, and received numerous updates with photos and videos while we were traveling. We’ll book again!”
“Mikayla and Jared took such great care of our sensitive dog! She was so nervous and needed some extra attention to adjust. By the time I picked her up days later, she seemed very relaxed and comfortable. Thanks so much!”

Super flexible with me. I screwed up on my booking and needed to book an extra day reached out to her and she was able to take the extra day so grateful. She kept me up to date with what was going on with my doggo which gave me such peace of mind since my dog likes to play escape artist sometimes. Dory seem to have a ton of fun with her family so would book her again in the future if I needed to leave Dory with a sitter!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in SD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
