“Megan and Jenny exceeded our expectations by providing daily updates and of course superb care for Turbo. I could tell Turbo enjoyed the environment and interactions with Megan and Jenny. High recommended!”


“Zo was an exceptional caregiver. I loved the photos and videos she sent to reassure us that Annie, our dog, had settled in. Very very happy with the experience”


“Chawntea is amazing! Bear was well taken care of and she sent many pictures and videos of him so I could see how much fun he was having. Definitely recommend!”


“Absolutely wonderful from start to finish! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. I had a few specific instructions for my pup’s stay, and not only were they followed perfectly—they even offered helpful suggestions and kept me updated with pictures and videos the whole time. The level of care and attention my dog received was outstanding, and I could tell he felt right at home the moment we arrived. There’s a warm, calming energy in this home that you can feel immediately and clearly, my pup felt it too. I’m beyond grateful and will definitely be booking again whenever I’m out of town. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to see you all again soon!”


“I wasn’t sure if my dog Toby would want to come home because I could tell he was having the time of his life all weekend long. I look forward to Toby spending more time at Lee’s home again soon!”


“This was our 1st time using rover. We were nervous but felt comfortable after meeting Suzanne. We initially contacted Suzanne through the app and she was very responsive. We initially chose her due to all the positive reviews. We did a 30 min meet and greet. Our little guy Georgie was able to roam around and check out the pad. We left Georgie for 3 days and received daily updates from Suzanne. We couldn’t of been happier knowing our guy was well taken care of. Will be using Suzanne again for our trip coming up. Super excited we found Suzanne to board our dog while we are away.”

“Lupi had a great stay with Erika and the Pea! It was very comforting to see adorable photo and video updates from Erika throughout Lupi's stay. Erika also did a great job communicating with the owner. Overall we were very happy with her services and will be choosing Erika and family again!”


“Chad provided a great sit for my 2 dogs. They were clearly well cared for. Between the two of them, they need a lot of meds and Chad willingly dispensed them. They'll be back! Thanks, Chad.”


“Robin and Dan did a great job with our senior chipin, Diego, who needs some TLC due to his age, breed, and recent hearing loss. Their attention to Diego's needs is greatly appreciated.”


“Alex kept my golden retriever for a week and left me feeling GREAT about the boarding. From the daily pix & videos, it seemed that Alex integrated Mika into her family life completely, even having her at their backyard easter egg hunt! Mika got lots of play time & tons of petting, played with her daughters at the playground across the street, and did her napping right under Alex's feet when she was working. Such a great feeling to know your dog is well cared for when away. Thanks so much Alex!”


“Kit was so wonderful with our dog! We had a short meet n greet in advance which was great because Kit asked really good questions to get to know our dog and how to best make her feel comfortable. Our dog can be a little anti-social but did great with Kit’s two little sweet dogs. We highly recommend giving your dog a little staycation at Kit’s lovely home.”



“Murphy had a great stay at Kim's, and she and her hubby sent frequent pictures (per my request) that helped put me at ease and to see that Murph was having a grand ole time. I do love that they live in my neighborhood (within walking distance), and I plan to have Murph stay with them again!”


“Andrea is amazing! We left our dog with her for about a week, and our dog was comfortable the entire time and had so much fun. She’s very sweet and attentive, and our dog gets along so well with her two dogs. We loved the daily updates and photos/videos.”


“Briana is so wonderful! She took such great care of Olly and sent such great updates throughout her stay. I’ll definitely be leaving her in Briana’s care again :)”


“Anna and Jason are wonderful. We always get updates and photos. Shakespeare loves playing with their pup Lucky. Thanks for a great experience.”


“Finn had such a good time at Vanessa’s. He was safe and well cared for and we are very appreciative!”



“Harley had a terrific time with Jeff & Beth. She came home happy & exhausted. Thank you for all the pictures and updates! She clearly seemed at "home" in your house! I will definitely be reaching out the next time we need a doggie-sitter.”


“Super kind and a gentle spirit. Koni was instantaneously comfortable with Leticia, I definitely intend to book her again when I'm in the area”

“Hy and Arlo did a great job watching my dog, Enzo. With them I was able to put my worries at ease (considering that Enzo is very reactive towards other dogs). They are very trustworthy and caring. An excellent experience, I highly recommend them.”

Amanda & Christopher B.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Amanda as a dog sitter on Rover! She is one of the most devoted and responsible dog moms I know—her French Bulldog is not just her pet but her adventure partner. Whether it’s going on hikes, exploring new parks, or just spending quality time cuddling at home, Amanda is all about giving dogs the best life possible. She has a natural energy that dogs gravitate toward, and she’s incredibly attentive to their needs. I’ve seen firsthand how patient, loving, and playful she is—not only with her own pup but with other dogs she meets. She’s also super reliable and detail-oriented, which makes her someone I’d trust 100% to care for my own dog. Any pup that stays with Amanda is guaranteed to get tons of affection, attention, and adventure. She’ll treat your dog like family!”

Highland dog parents share their Rover experiences
Laura was amazing!! She took good care of my baby and made him super comfortable. Would definitely recommend her

Super kind and a gentle spirit. Koni was instantaneously comfortable with Leticia, I definitely intend to book her again when I'm in the area

Best Rover we have ever used! They went above and beyond to truly make sure Itchy was cared for while we were gone, and made him a part of their family. Itchy loved his time there and we will definitely be rebooking in the future!

Zach was very communicative and sent pictures of my pets. He took real good care of them! Would definitely have him watch my pets again and recommended him to friends.

I had a great experience with Briana—she took care of my dog for two nights and was amazing throughout! She kept me updated regularly, which gave me so much peace of mind. Beni came back happy and relaxed, clearly had a nice, chill time. Would definitely book again!

Astrid and Candido were amazing with our girl Luna! We loved all of the photos and the communication was excellent. I could tell that Luna was having a great time and was really happy snuggling with Astrid and her family. Right before we left town, Luna had to go to the vet and get some antibiotics for a gum infection, and Astrid did a wonderful job making sure she took her medicine every day. It's always a bit stressful to leave town without your pup, but we felt such a huge sense of relief knowing that she was getting great care at Astrid's house. 10 out of 10, would definitely recommend and book with Astrid again!

Megan and her husband are kind, attentive and clearly love dogs. It brings me comfort to know Pippa’s so well taken care of when we’re away.

I couldn’t be happier with the care Koko received from Miki. She helped me to pickup my rescue dog from the shelter. The situation it’s very difficult for me when I am living out of state. It was very clear how kind, responsible, and genuinely loving she is with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while waiting for someone transport Koko back to AZ. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely. Highly highly recommend!

Dan was great with our boxer girls. He provided updates throughout the day and was responsive whenever I had questions. He kept with our daily schedule which was great. He provided play time and cuddles. The girls were excited to be there!

This was Lila’s second stay with Natalia! Natalia did a great job problem solving and coming up with solutions to small hiccups from last time Lila stayed. Natalia sends frequent updates and is always so helpful.

Jeffrey and Robert are ideal caregivers for our dog Chase! They are reliable, attentive, communicative and warm with pups and humans alike. When we’re on one of our human breaks, it’s wonderful to know Chase is having his own spa-time at their idyllic doggie villa, lounging in their gorgeous, expansive yard or being taken on multiple daily walks around town. I also really appreciate that they’ve come through for me at the last minute when I’ve suddenly needed a sitter. You can’t go wrong with this wonderful pair of dog-lovers. Happy repeat customer here!

We love Brhi Brhi!! My dog and my family absolutely loves her, whenever we go out of town we book with her, it’s been 4 years now!! Thank you Brhi for always being so caring and attentive and going above and beyond for Fendi!! We adore you!! ❤️❤️

Thanks for the updates and taking great care of our pup. She’s a nervous / shy one so was happy she settled in.

Benson was a great dog sitter, stepping in last minute after another sitter canceled the day before my trip. He was very responsive and kindly kept my dog an extra night after a flight delay. I really appreciated his flexibility and willingness to help on short notice.

Another great stay for our pup with Nicola and Michael. Always has a great time and loves being around the family!

Natalie and Matthew are so communicative and send so many pictures and videos. You just know that your pup is happy at their place and that they are treating them with the best of care. Unfortunately, my dog did not want to leave, which also made me feel good about letting him stay there!

My dog ziva loves staying with Dvora! She gets great attention, goes on fun hikes, and comes back happy and tired!

Allie is considerate, experienced, and communicative, and our dog Theo loves her. We feel such peace of mind working with Allie, knowing our pup is in good hands. Highly recommend!
