1. Jessica & Carol H.
“What a wonderful first time experience using Rover. We could not be happier or more pleased with how these two caregivers cared for our extremely shy and quiet dog. They understood her immediately and gave her her space. I will definitely be booking with them again!!!!”


2. Ashleigh & Bill R.


“Can't say enough about how pleases I was with the care and compassion they provided to my dog. They were very responsive to messages and kept me update on Max during his stay with them. Loved the pictures too they sent of Max. Not sure Max wanted to leave and come home with me after his stay with them. Lol. It can be hard to find someone good who will care for a big Doberman but they were great with him. He was right at home with them They have a great outdoor space too.”


3. Sara L.

“Sara and her family were AMAZING!!! We have a 4 month old puppy and we were nervous about leaving him and, we had to leave him overnight. Sara took him into her home and not only loved him like it was her own but took him on so many walks, play activities and puppy training. She went far beyond my expectations, nearly to the point where I felt bad taking my puppy home as he was having so much fun! I am so grateful we found Sara!”


4. Abigail C.

“Abigail was amazing. She was able to make our anxious dog feel right at home. It was the first time we have left him and didn’t need to worry about him for one second. We will use Abigail for all of our future trips. She sent us pictures of them on walks and playing with other dogs. You could tell she really enjoyed having him while we were away.”


5. Amber S.


“Amber and Michael took great care of my dogs while I was away! They were very attentive to each of my dogs individual needs. I was at ease, knowing my fogs were in good hands! My little dog loved the walks!! I plan on using them again, in the near future!”


6. Britany R.

“I really like how well Britany took care of Jasmine! She was able to watch her at the last minute so that I could take a trip to Rio and spend quality time with my daughter. She took pictures of her every day and sent them to me. She even gave her a bath when she got too muddy on one of her walks. I hope to be able to work with her again soon and I would definitely recommend her to everyone!”


7. Arlissa S.

“I had a great experience with Arlissa. She really showed compassion for animals. Arlissa sent several updates and very nice photos of Ace.. I could travel at ease knowing Ace was in good hands.”

9. casey h.

“This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous at first but Casey really took great care of our pup while we were away! Her experience with and love for dogs, fostering and rescuing really shows and we felt great about having her watch our puppy over the weekend.”




10. Gregory A.

“I was away for 2 months and during this time Greg took excellent care of my dog Max. He kept me updated with messages and pictures of Max's activities. He feed him the specific food I had requested along with specific joint nutrients. Greg is very knowledgeable about caring for dogs and cats. At one point Max's stool became a bit soft and Greg knew exactly what to do to get things right. The home environment with his children is very clean, friendly and caring. I think Max enjoyed it so much he probably didn't want to leave. I would highly recommend him and will definitely use Greg in the future.”


11. Ryan W.

“We will definitely use Ryan again. He and his son were great with our dogs, Beefy and Otis. He was very attentive to them and kept in touch with us often. I felt that I could relax knowing that Ryan was watching our dogs.”


12. Carey K.


“This was my first experience using Rover. I boarded my dog with Carey for 2 days/nights and Bailey did great. Carey sent updates including pictures ands videos of Bailey which made my time away more enjoyable because I knew Bailey was having a great experience! I hope to board Bailey with Carey for all future travels!”


13. Daphne B.

“I had the pleasure of leaving my dog with Daphne, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provided. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was genuinely caring and compassionate towards animals. She took the time to understand my dog's needs and made me feel at ease leaving my furry friend in her capable hands. Throughout the day, Daphne went above and beyond by regularly sending me pictures and videos of my dog. It was heartwarming to see my dog happy and content in her care. Her updates helped me stay connected and reassured that my dog was in good hands. I highly recommend Daphne to anyone in need of a dog sitter. Her caring nature, attention to detail, and excellent communication skills truly set her apart. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future whenever I need someone trustworthy and reliable to look after my furry companion. Thank you, Daphne, for providing such exceptional care!”


14. Amanda H.


“Hobbit had a great time with Amanda! I could tell because when I picked him up, he clearly went to give her a thank you hug and a goodbye. He is happy and healthy and Amanda was great at providing updates and pictures of Hobbit. I will definitely book with her again!”


15. Amber K.

“Thank you Amber for watching our lil Marley. You were super awesome to work with and even more awesome to allow him to use your crate! Marley appeared to have a wonder play date with your other pups! When we travel to OH again we will most definitely contact you! Thanks again- you save the day for us! The Curry’s”

“Rebecca and Ethan took such great care of our dog, Rudy, while we were on vacation. He got walks, lots of love, and we always received updates. We could tell Rudy felt very comfortable and happy while he was there. We will definitely book with Rebecca and Ethan again in the future when needed. :)”


18. Andre G.

“Andre is awesome 😎 taking my dogs for multiple walks each day, showing me each time they ate, and being so responsive. I look forward to the next time he can pamper my pups!”


19. Joe S.

“Joe is awesome! He’s kept our dogs 6 or 7 times and they’re always so happy when they’re with him. He doesn’t send daily pictures or updates unless you ask, but if you need to reach out he is very responsive to communication. When Joe keeps the dogs, we know that we can enjoy our time away without having to worry and we know that they will be well taken care of! I highly recommend him for your pet sitting needs!”


20. Sierra H.

“Sierra was great for our dog, Ralph! She is very experienced and professional and I immediately felt comfortable leaving him with her. He came home tired and happy from playing with her two pups. We’re definitely planning to request her again for our next trip!”
