“Jaggu had exceptional time with Cindy. She was attentive to Jaggu, cared for Jaggu like her own pet and she send us a lot of pictures which was relief seeing Jaggu happy. First trip where I was not worried about Jaggu. She is going to be our go to person here onwards 😀”


“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my dog! From the moment we met, I could tell Jia had a natural connection with animals. Jia was warm, responsible, and clearly experienced. My dog instantly felt comfortable, and I felt completely at ease leaving him in such capable hands. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates, pictures, and even a few videos that showed how happy and relaxed my dog was. It was clear he was being well-loved and cared for. The sitter went above and beyond with walks, playtime, and making sure he stuck to his routine. I came home to a calm, happy pup—and a clean house! I wholeheartedly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their pet. I will absolutely be booking with them again. Thank you for treating my dog like your own!”


“Mariia was amazing! She became best friends with our cat, taking care of her for 2 whole weeks while we were abroad. She communicated with us well and was flexible with our schedule!”


“Rosanna and her boys were wonderful. Super easy to work with and very flexible with pick up and drop off. Our Marty made some new friends and took plenty of walks. We received daily pictures and over all Marty seemed happy and well taken care of. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


“Lee is delightful as a person and a professional. . She was warm and caring to me and to my precious 5 lb shi poo puppy. Lee is a wonderful communicator. She asked the right questions and always quickly responded to my questions. Will request her services again.”


“Wow! We are so happy that we chose Gabriella to be our dog’s new sitter! Kiko acclimated to her home immediately. He even ate on the first day! We thought he would not have eaten for a few days. Kiko loved his long daily walks in the park! He loved being part of her family! Kiko is looking forward to his next visit!”


“Colleen and Steve were wonderful in looking after my 4 yr old energetic golden. They not only accepted a last minute request from my side but also ensured I was comfortable boarding my dog, sent multiple updates through the day. My dog was happy which is all that matters! Thank you Colleen!!”


“Our usual sitter was going on vacation at the same time as us, so we needed to find an alternative. We came across Stephanie during our search who took great care of our pup. Would book again and would recommend.”



“Yuhan was a wonderful host to my dog! She walked her regularly and kept her happy and healthy. Would definitely recommend Yuhan to anyone in the area looking for a sitter!”


“5 Stars – Truly Exceptional Sitters Joe and Bonnie took wonderful care of my 13.5-year-old Maltese, Louie, while I was away for a long weekend. From the moment they met him, I could tell he’d be in loving, capable hands. Being retired, they’re home most of the time—and it’s obvious they genuinely love dogs. Throughout the stay, they sent frequent photo updates showing Louie happy, well-fed, and thoroughly spoiled. I’ve used Rover for years, and this was without question one of the very best experiences I’ve had. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again.”


“Fandi is so professional and absolutely showed so much love taking care of our pet dog Hank. Her Communication and updates were amazing. I would highly recommend her to all our friends if you are looking for someone to take care of your pet. Hire Fandi. Your the Best. Thank you 😊. Tony B. Blue Bell, PA.”


“Rover has delivered positive sittings for sure, but this one really felt like the perfect experience. It's important that we leave our dog with someone who is pet experienced, and has the right amount of time & a safe setup. But in this case, not only is the house nice/roomy with a large backyard, but also it authentically feels like Jennifer and her daughter & husband are enjoying the experience as well. I feel like dogs respond to genuine affection, and that makes all the difference for us. Jennifer took pictures of her husband comforting Moose, and gave us stories about her daughter sleeping with him in her arms. This makes us want to give him this delightful experience everytime we are forced to travel without him, if possible. Tonight he is sleeping like a baby ever since we got home, likely because of the exciting time that he has had in the last few days Thank you Jennifer for keeping him so entertained while we were gone!”


“Kate was absolutely amazing with our little guy Caramel! I was so worried because I never needed to leave him for so long but as soon as we met Kate we knew she was the right person to take care of him! She made sure to send us photos and little updates during the day. I recommend her 100% and I hope to use her services again in the future.”


“Ryan was our 1st experience using Rover, or any boarding service. We have a very large very anxious 3yr old dog, and Ryan made the experience smooth and worry free for myself & my dog. He sent great photos showing how relaxed & happy my dog was while we were away, which my whole family loved to see. Highly recommended using Ryan for any services he offers.”


“She was amazing!! Lots of photos and videos to update me. She took the best care of my puppy and treated her like family! Selena was very accommodating and always quick to respond! This was an amazing experience and i will definitely be booking again!!”


“Amy was extremely flexible on the day that I dropped off my pups. I was greatly delayed because of an accidental slip-and-fall event as I prepared to leave home, but she was extremely accommodating. My pups were clearly well cared for and the picture she sent of them snuggling together was very reassuring. I will definitely be calling on Amy for help once again for my two dogs.”


“Tracy and Brian’s home is one of Ollie’s favorite places to visit. His excitement to see Tracy when dropping him off leaves me feeling reassured that he’s is great hands and will have a wonderful doggie daycare day.”

Heaton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Becky took wonderful care of our dog bear while we were out of the country for 10 days. She gave us daily updates with photos and kept us informed on how he was managing in our absence. Becky is extremely trustworthy and reliable to take care of our for a friends. I will definitely reach out to her in the future to care for our boy.

Kate was wonderful with our dog, Winnie! She and Dan treated her like she was one of their own! Her first time ever being left with someone else was for boarding for a week and she came back happy and healthy! Kate listened patiently to any of my worries and sent me pictures and videos every day that reassured us and warmed our hearts! We would most definitely use her again!j

Oliver's separation anxiety was pretty severe last night, but Fandi and Martin were so kind and patient. They were concerned for him, and I really appreciated the great care that they provided. Thankfully, Izzie was chill and easy for them to watch. I received plenty of updates with photos. I would highly recommend!

Our dog Bella was just as spoiled with Cindy as she is at home. The updates and pictures were so reassuring and Cindy was so flexible with our schedule. It was obvious that Bella was well taken care of and very happy. I could not have asked for a better week for our Bella.

Colleen and Steve were wonderful in looking after my 4 yr old energetic golden. They not only accepted a last minute request from my side but also ensured I was comfortable boarding my dog, sent multiple updates through the day. My dog was happy which is all that matters! Thank you Colleen!!

We are so grateful to Lee for stepping in at the last minute to care for my Boyfriend's Dog! With very little notice (hours), She was responsive, professional, and incredibly kind. Hope was well taken care of and clearly comfortable and happy in her care. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Hope was in great hands. Highly recommend Lee— a true lifesaver! I have used her several times with my dog as well.
