“Always a pleasure with Michael, very good communicator, great attention to detail, no issues with him giving medicine or walking our dog who is leash reactive and can be tough to walk. Thanks again, Michael!”

“This is my 2nd time having my baby Bandit stay in her home. Sam is very helpful and she sends me a daily update. I always feel her love and care for my baby Bandit. Highly recommended!”

“David took excellent care of my dog. He sent check-ins regularly and was easy to coordinate with for pick up and drop offs. I would definitely book again.”

“It was my first time leaving Cotton with a sitter after a couple of years so I was not sure if he will adjust to being in a foreign environment with strangers however after the first update and pictures I could see that Margarita is a friendly and caring sitter and he was at ease. I received frequent updates and pictures as details on how he was behaving. I will highly recommend Margarita & Christian when considering to leave your furry friend they will be in a safe environment and will be well taken care of. Communication from beginning to end was great and I will definitely use their service in the future.”

“Kecia was so wonderful with our dog, she is very caring, patient, and loving! Throughout the few days our dog stayed with her, she cared for our dog as if she was one of her own. Kecia is very communicative, provided updates and pictures and seemed to really understand our dog's quirks and needs. We know she is good hands with Kecia. Highly recommend Kecia!”

“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”

“Ravon was extremely communicative and wonderfully patient with my crabby cat! They clearly loves animals and know how to care for them. Being able to have Val stay in the home of someone so trustworthy was a big relief over the holidays.”

“Rachel was amazing! My pup was so happy, comfortable and confident staying with Rachel and Jesse. Rachel provided my pup with plenty of play and exercise, while keeping me in the loop with pictures of video. She even administered my pup’s allergy shots. Rachel was a wonderful caretaker and I will definitely rebook with her the next time I go out of town!”

“Kristen was amazing to work with! She sent daily updates with adorable pictures of my little old lady, which totally eased my nerves since it was my first time leaving her in someone else's care. I'd happily leave my dog with her again.”

“Benjamin was the best host I could have hoped for. Picked on vibes alone through this app and obvious great ratings. His space was like a club house for my little man Beni. It was great to receive daily videos, pictures and texts of how he was adjusting and thriving in the pack of dogs. I'm a first time client and will definitely use again.”

“Rachel accommodated a last minute request and provided great care for our anxious dog, who took to her quickly. She took extra care to make sure he ate and sent lots of pictures and updates to let us know how he adjusted. We will be back!”

“I’m anxious without my dog and Michael made sure both my dog and I felt reassured my dog was living his best life. Michael updated me with photos everyday and I really appreciated that. Also, he was super cooperative with schedules and dog routines. Lastly, I was very impressed by the feedback/report on overall performance of my dog over the two week stay that he gave when I went to pick up my puppy. I knew a 9 month old portipoo could be a ball of problem but Michael handled it like a pro.👍👍👍 I would definitely come back”

“Jane was so lovely and her dog Fancy is so cute! Our puppers needed a one night boarding while we were at a wedding. Jane took great care of him and sent so many photos, videos, and updates throughout the night and the next morning. She asked great questions if she was unsure of things. I loved the communication and flexibility Jane provided. Our dog was so happy when we came back to pick him up which let us know he had a great time at Jane’s! Would definitely recommend as a sitter!”

“This is the second time we leave our cat Luna to Sherry and Walter and as always they took such good care of her , provided frequent updates and made amazing studio level photos We will definitely have them babysit Luna again soon Thanks again”


“John is a great Rover while he watched Pisco for a couple of days. He responds quickly, and we enjoyed his daily pics on how Pisco is doing. Thank you!”

“Angelique was absolutely lovely! She was extremely communicative and her love for dogs is apparent! Charlie was very well take care of during his stay. She made sure to stay in contact and provide updates. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Tallin was a truly wonderful dogsitter! I've left my dog with very few sitters before, so I was a bit anxious about leaving him with a stranger, but Tallin put me right at ease with twice-daily updates and lots of photos. I will absolutely try to book with her again next time I need a sitter!”

“Very helpful with my dogs transition in moving to New York. Very calm home my dog was able to relax. Great communication. Will definitely use Xavier again.”

“Doris and her family always take great care of Brownie as if she was their own fur baby. I can tell from the photos that Brownie is having a great time. I would not hesitate to recommend Doris as a sitter. Brownie has stayed with Doris several times now and she always comes back happy and in great shape. Thank you so much!”

Howard Beach dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was the first time I've left my 2 reactive dogs with anyone. I was super nervous. I am so glad I found Anamika! She and family were terrific with my girls. Anamika provided updates daily and answered any questions I had. Drop off and pickup went smoothly. She even accommodated me picking them up a few hours early when I got back home. I finally found someone I can trust with these two.... planning my next trip now :-)

I needed to find a last minute sitter as my usual one is unavailable. She is local to me which is great. We arranged for a meet and greet with our dogs and all went well (her dogs are so sweet!). She is very accommodating to my dog's needs and after picking her up the next day, she was so exhausted from a great time with Lauren and her family (humans and pets). We will definitely be booking with Lauren again!
My dog had a great time with this sitter! She was very caring towards him and sent us daily pictures and updates. My dog came back very happy and healthy!! I appreciate her being so kind and warm during his stay. I will definitely book her in the future…I highly recommend her! Thank you.

Arianna is amazing. Reading her profile her standard of care about her business and the animals. I knew I wanted to book with her but we still set up a FaceTime to make sure. Her disposition is so sweet; I knew Bodhi would be in good hands. He was with her for 4 days and I got to see him, hot pics and updates. She’s now my go- to sitter for my furr baby.

Highly recommend Xiu! She loves my dog and takes him out to the park multiple times a day to enjoy nature. Very kind, caring and accommodating sitter. Great with communication too. Sends me photos daily to update on what a wonderful time my dog is having. Was worried he would hesitate to come home with mommy since he's having a terrific time with Xiu! The living arrangement is quite spacious for the dog to play and chill. There is also a private backyard for easy access to the outdoor. Overall very satisfied and grateful for the service!!
