“Richard did a great job with Al. He kept me updated on Al’s daily activities with pictures and video. Al was able to play nicely with his dogs in the fenced in yard. Communication was easy and prompt. I’m happy with my experience with Richard and recommend him!”
“Amazing with my little void! Everyday pics and video and my little baby looked so happy to be there! Went above and beyond and made little toys for her!”
“Great dog sitters for my anxious little dog. They sent updates and photos daily. My dog was more comfortable the second time around. I will be booking you again in the future! Thank you.”
“Amy is very flexible and responsible dog sitter who took good care of my pup over the holiday week. She sent me pictures and explained what my pup did throughout the day. We love Amy and will be using her for future dog sitting needs.”
“Kathy does such a great job with my dog Cooper. She is so kind and loving to my dog! I get many Pictures of him through out the day. I know he is very taken care of. And gives great walks!!”
“Very impressed with the care and attention Victoria gave my dog. As a veteran on Rover I have experienced many sitters and Victoria is one of the best I’ve had. I truly had no worries leaving my dog with her as she cared for her as I would have. Wonderful communication with videos every morning and evening while always asking all the right questions to be sure my dog was always happy and comfortable. We have found our new sitter. Highly recommend!!”
“Today when I took Breya over I was happy because I can tell she likes Amy and has a great time with her by the way she greeted her. She does the excited whining and jumping like she does when she's happy to see me.”
“Christine was so great w/ floof. He can be an anxious boy and she went out of her way to do lots of small things to make his stay as stress free as possible, working to accommodate him and what he needed to feel at home. She sent regular updates and pics, he came home a happy boy :) We'd love to use her again for future vacations”
“Kevin was exceptional - this was our first experience with a dog sitter, and he was courteous, responsive, and accommodating. His greyhound, Maki, is a gentle soul who got along wonderfully with our smaller dogs. We were especially grateful for the updates and photos of our pups relaxing and out on walks. I highly recommend Kevin and would be happy to entrust him with our pups again in the future!”
“This was our puppy's first night away from home and I can't say enough about how reassuring it was to have him at Emily and Patrick's. He loved having another dog to play with. They had mountains of toys to entertain him as well. We got pictures and videos. And, more importantly, they kept him content despite his separation distress. We'll definitely come back to them when we need a dogsitter!”
“Christy is very kind and welcomed our large, sometimes rambunctious, rescue pup into her home. She provided frequent pictures and updates while we were away. We are so appreciative!”
“Rose was a great dog-sitter for our dog, Wednesday! We loved getting a daily update with pictures of our girl. Wednesday and Rose’s dog Daisy had fun playing together, too! Already booked another stay for Wednesday with Rose for our next trip!”
“Adrienne took our dog for a really nice hike. She is a high energy dog and really needed this. When we picked her up we knew she had been spoiled and loved on.”
“Breanna was amazing! Always kept in contact and we felt our sweet boy was loved and taken care of! Definitely the best experience we had with Rover!”
“Denise was a great sitter for our pup! She was very flexible with scheduling and provided regular updates throughout the stay. Would definitely work with her again and recommend!”
“Thank you, Geoffrey, for taking such good care of Benji. I really appreciate your love of animals and the frequent photos and updates while we were traveling. I think he felt at home with you. I will definitely book with you again.”
“Tessa was great! My dog isn't usually the cuddly type, but he cuddled right up to her. She was always communicative, sent regular pictures and updates, and asked lots of questions in our meet and greet to be sure she knew what my dog needed. I'd definitely hire her again!”
“Our experience and care with Vidhi was wonderful from start to finish. We were leaving for vacation and our original sitter plans fell through less than a week before leaving. Thankfully, Vidhi was available and promptly responded to the request. She was so accommodating to our schedule and a few changes that popped up. Furthermore, she made sure to make Mira feel comfortable and at ease in her home. Frequent walks, play time, and lots of pictures made us feel comfortable while we were away! Will definitely keep Vidhi in mind for future sitter needs.”
“Sarah has been a wonderful and reliable sitter for my two pups. I am so grateful for her kindness, thoughtfulness about my dog’s needs and her responsiveness. I will continue to use Sarah as my sitter as long as I am able!”
“Zeiydah is a lifesaver! She helped our family with very short notice. Zeiydah sent pictures multiple times per day to ease the anxiety of leaving our pet behind. We will use her again.”

Herrs Island dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ashley and Nick were great! So many updates and pictures! They were so attuned to cocco’s needs and it really showed :) we will for sure use them again!
Abby and Jason were incredible with our five month old puppy. We were anxious about leaving her for the first time, let alone for a whole week, and we were at ease as soon as we met them and Wall-E. Prior to booking they were communicative and that continued through the stay with daily updates. As soon as I picked her up I could tell she had a great week. As I am writing this she is taking a nap and we have already requested a stay for our next trip!
I highly recommend Natalia!!! She was wonderful with my high anxiety dog. She gave him lots of love, exercise, sent great pictures with updates a few times every day, and he was happy to play with her adorable dog. She let him sleep with her (which is how he sleeps at home) and we appreciate that. She was very flexible with the pick up time. I will absolutely ask her to watch Hudson again!!
Kristen did great with Pax! I was a little nervous how he’d do downtown, but Kristen assured me she wasn’t phased by an adjustment day or two as Pax got used to some new noises. He came back to us tired and happy!
Sarah does a great job taking care of my dog! Good communication and treats them like her own pet. Repeat client and plan to use her services again.
Thank you, Laura! We know our dog isn't the easiest, and you did so well. Thank you for taking care of him and giving him love.
Christine was honestly so amazing. From the beginning she was soo helpful! I have never booked through here before or knew how this whole process went, and Christine made this process just so easy. I was so skeptical leaving my old lady while I went out of town due to her having anxiety issues from her shelter stay before I adopted her. But Christine made this a perfect stay for her! I got daily photos and updates and my Bella Bean even made a friend!!! (Christine’s kitten). This was just a lovely experience! And since my Bella Bean is so comfortable with Christine now, I will absolutely be booking again!! Thank you so much Christine!! 💗💗
Vidhi was absolutely amazing! From the moment we booked, her communication was top notch. She was always prompt, clear, and thoughtful. She sent regular updates and adorable photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog had a blast with her, her partner and dog… going on plenty of walks and getting lots of love and attention. The pickup and drop off process was seamless and stress free. You can truly tell she cares deeply about the dogs she watches. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Vidhi and will definitely be booking with her again!
Brad is hands down our favorite sitter we’ve used! If we travel we look at his calendar first. We have a senior dog with some challenges and medication. Brad is amazing at taking care of our older guy. He follows the instruction provided and gave me daily updates. I would highly recommend Brad if you get the opportunity!
So pleased that Nike was well taken care of and we were always sent pictures of Nike enjoying g his stay!!! Thank you, I can say that I strongly recommend Niki and Stephano! Thank you
Mary's communication is great: flexibility with drop off and pick up times. She sent us pictures of the pups when we were away -- which we love. She's organized; easy going; and our pups seem happy when they are with her.
breanna did a great job of looking after our 7 year old dog. she treated her like she was her own. i felt so comfortable leaving her with breanna - she kept us updated with pictures and updates every day. i would absolutely book with her again for our next trip out of town.
Diana (and Ben!) were terrific. Very communicative -- sharing photos and notes. Stella has some tendonitis and they were very sweet with her (Nico, too!).
Amber was great with my dog while I was away! She took him for walks every day, she hung out with him, and everything! She did such an excellent job that I don’t think he even cared that I was gone! She provided the best care, definitely recommend booking her!
Amy was very kind, and took wonderful care of our pup. She sent photos of their walks around the city and kept a good eye on a paw that seemed to be bothering our pup. We would gladly hire Amy again!!
Tessa took great care of our dog while we were gone! She was very friendly and communicative. She sent photos and updates while we were away.
Lucy and Matt were the best!! Our pup, Frankie, stayed with them for a week while we were away. They sent daily pics, took her on so many adventures, and introduced her to new friends!! We will absolutely be using them in the future and would recommend for anyone who needs a dog sitter for their fur baby!!
Warner took in my puppy for emergency daycare with no questions asked. He answered his messages late in the evening and I was able to make it into the office on time the next morning. Easy drop off, easy pickup, happy and well loved dog!
Rae did a great job with our dog Rosie. She was very conscientious - took extra care to text me with any concerns, took Rosie for walks, and sent nice pictures. The large, fenced-in yard was great for our 90 lb. English lab - lots of room to enjoy. Thanks Rae - we will definitely use your dog-sitting services again!
Zsofi was an amazing host for our rescue dog Julie! Julie was immediately comfortable and had such a great time on all their adventures together. You can tell Zsofi had a lot of dog experience because she knew just how to prepare for the Fourth of July fireworks to make Julie extra comfortable even in a new place. We hope Zsofi is available again the next time we go out of town as I’m sure Julie would love to go back!
