“Bree was a fantastic sitter for Betty. Very easy to communicate and coordinate with, and very convenient location. She also sent some great photos & updates of Betty enjoying her time with her. Will definitely be using Bree again.”

“Bertie and the family are absolutely AMAZING!! They were able to accommodate my last minute request. I was continuously sent pictures and updates which I really appreciated.

“Paula did a great job taking care of our dog! She was very communicative and had a great set up for dog sitting. Our dog had a lot of fun playing with the toys and her dogs. We are grateful!”


“Rebecca has a wonderful space and very lovely playful pups! We had a great meet and greet to ensure it was a good fit and booked when we all felt it was! She provided good updates and was flexible with us and our pup. She is an experienced doggy caretaker and our dog had a great time and came back to us happy and tired from all the playtime and walking. Couldn't recommend her enough!”


“Cynthia is definitely the best dog sitter I have met! Her and her family are incredibly sweet. My previous sitter canceled last minute and she responded and agreed to care for my Bailey at the last minute. I’m so grateful! Not only is she prompt with response, but she sent frequent updates and pictures. She has a big back yard and took Bailey on a fun excursion! Definitely worth the drive outside of Charlottesville! Will highly recommend!”


“Our pups enjoyed their stay with Anne! It was easy to communicate with her and she sent lots of photos and updates. She took great care of them and we would use her again in the future. Thanks Anne!”

“My dog Bruce had the best time with Katina! She was super responsive, reliable and we felt very comfortable with her during our meet and greet. She sent photos, videos and updates that put us at ease that Bruce was in good hands. 10/10 would use again!!”


“Cash had the best time on his weekend stay with Aly. He had a Super Bowl party with new friends! I got lots of updates and could tell he was happy and relaxed. When I went to pick him up he said hello and trotted right back inside, he was not ready to leave! I know he will be so excited to go back to his new vacation house whenever we have to leave town!”


“Moxie had a great time staying over with Caroline. I loved getting photos and updates. Caroline is very experienced with dogs who have special needs and she is warm and friendly. So glad we found her!”


“Incredibly helpful and understanding with our trip and dog’s needs! We had several changes to our itinerary and Kayla accepted them all with grace and compassion. Our dog was in such good hands while we were out of town. Highly recommended!!!”

“This was my first time leaving my 8 month old puppy since I got him. He is a pretty anxious dog, which made me an anxious mother. Clayton and Brittany were great; they were unfazed by his quirks, and allowed him space to adjust. Apparently he adjusted just fine; climbing into laps. They have a large fenced yard and two lively dogs; such a fun, busy weekend for my pup! I highly recommend them…”

Jefferson Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Brooke did an excellent job taking care of our dog. She was very responsive to all our messages and sent regular updates and photos each day. She was also incredibly flexible with our pickup time after a delayed return flight. We definitely would book with Brooke again!

Isaiah is an incredible individual. Our dog is a senior and he is not an easy dog to manage at this point of life, but the dog still is loving life and has quality time left. Isaiah was so loving and caring of our dog and we knew that our buddy was in the best of care. I appreciate Isaiah for his time, energy, and communication from start to finish with us and to our dog. Seriously, beyond appreciative of Isaiah.

This was my first time using Rover, and Nicholas was a Godsend! He was able to accommodate my last minute request, when a previous booking fell through. He was kind and flexible with my Roscoe! He sent me updates and pictures, which showed the Roscoe was doing well. I will definitely recommend and book with him again!
