“My 1-year-old Berner Miley had a wonderful overnight stay with Tish and her dogs. Tish made sure to share regular updates on Miley’s activities and whereabouts, and was very friendly and patient with me throughout the whole process of scheduling, dropping-off, and picking-up. I’m very happy with this first Rover experience—as is Miley—and I plan to board with Tish again in the future!”


“Cheryse took care of our old lady Vizsla for a week. She was very understanding to our “Velcro” dogs needs. We really appreciated the daily text updates and photos, and it seemed like she really treated our dog like a member of her own family. We would definitely recommend Cheryse as a dog sitter.”


“Alora took great care of Dude! She sent several pictures and an update daily that showed her kids playing with Dude and taking him for walks. I have no doubt that he was taken well care of during our vacation. I would recommend Alora to w.”



“Beyond incredible experience for our pup!! Constant communication and pictures made being away from speckles a little easier. This was our first rover experience and it was beyond our expectations! Thank you!!”


“Megan was the absolute best. She sent lots of updates, was responsive, and overall an excellent host. Her house is also a great space for pets and will allow your animal to play and lounge around as they want. 10/10 experience with Megan.”


“Brandi took such wonderful care of my girl Roxy! I loved that she gave me detailed updates on how Roxy was doing and pics showing me how she spent her day. I highly recommend Brandi!”


“Best sitter ever!! She's so accommodating! Her home has a great open floor plan and is off the road. She has kennels for those who need/like them but for my boy, the whole family treated him just like we do! He is 4 and has never been away from us, so this was scary, but he acted completely happy and that gave us peace to enjoy our vacation!! I could see his joy in the pictures she sent us. Thank you Echo!! We can't wait to use you again!!”


“My dog Ladybird can be a little anxious and hesitant around new people and I’ve never had to leave her with anyone other than friends she already knows. Crista kept her for two days and gave me several updates with photos along the way and returned my dog happy and tired from lots of playing. I can tell my dog was treated well and I would happily book with Crista again.”


“Amanda was super communicative and did everything I asked for! Her dog got along with mine and she was so sweet to my boy. Thank you Amanda and I'll be rebooking for sure!!!”


“My golden retriever had the BEST time staying with Kayley! This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased. She is super friendly and her dogs welcomed mine in during her stay. Exceeded my expectations ☺️”


“This was my first time using a "stranger" for dog sitting. I was anxious about my first time using Rover for my senior fur baby. Right away at the meet and greet I felt immediately relived and actually excited! Jessica and her sister were amazing from beginning to end. Sending many pictures and messages along the way to let me know how well things were going! I will definitely rebook with her in the future.”


“Miranda was trust worthy and a great sitter for Bronco! She she sent pics/videos during the stay and kept us informed on his stay and how things were going! Would recommend to anyone needing a sitter(:”


“Such an amazing family! It was so nice to meet her and feel the love of her family. Dropping my dog off there I knew he would be cared for with lots of attention. I appreciated how detailed and honest Brooke’s updates were. It is nice to know exactly what is going on along with pictures and updates on the goofy things my dog does. Of course I missed him, but I was not worried. I knew he was in good hands. I will absolutely trust Brooke and her family again. Thank you!”


“Our dogs loved staying with Susannah. She made it easy to drop them off and sent pictures and videos throughout the stay. Flynn and Minnie were excited to get to her house and play with Susannah’s dogs. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dogs.”

“Melissa was awesome! We needed a sitter a little last minute and thank goodness was Melissa was available. She was so organized and caring, sent updates often, and was proactive and flexible. We will definitely book with Melissa again if our schedules line up!”


“Angela was a great host for our English Cocker Spaniel, Poppy! She is clearly an animal lover and loves on Poppy as if she were her own. Her communication was fantastic and sent us cute pics each day. So glad we found Angela!”


About: I love animals and until now, have always had an pet in my house. Now, I travel to much to commit to one. I would love to be a temporary home for yours! I have the abilty to work from home when needed. I am also never gone from my house for more than 8 hours. I am happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the time they need. I have a house with a fenced in backyard. I have a cat tree and a automatic litter box. I have plenty of room to play inside and windows for them to look out.

“George, Erin, and Azul were excellent sitters for my fur baby Georgia. I received daily updates and photos of Georgia who was absolutely living her best life with their sweet family. She was worn out from having a blast with Azul. I will definitely request them again.”

Benjamin C.
“Ben LOVES pets. I highly recommend him as a pet sitter. He has lovingly and responsibly cared for our 60 lb. golden doodle. His former roommates have had pets and he treated them like his own. He owns all sorts of pet (cat and dog) equipment and is ready to take on a four-legged tenant. In fact, since he is pet-less right now, he would love to have your pet to keep him company for a while. He will treat your pet like his own, following your guidelines and wishes. He has a three-bedroom home and a fenced in back yard. I am not a cat-lover, but he has a cat tree and a fancy electric litter box. He is used to "special food" and special attention. He often works from home and is around for love and pets. If you are looking for someone to care for your pet in their home, I highly recommend Ben. Check him out!”
