“Felix was fantastic with our dog Roscoe. He was very caring and treated Roscoe with tremendous care. Overall, a really good and trusting person to leave your animal with. I will definitely be using his services again!”

“Christina was great with our dog Asher! She was great at communicating and sent pictures of him to us while we were on vacation and showed us how he was loving spending time with their dog. They even sent us home with a new dog toy for Asher and he loves it. Thanks for helping us out! We will definitely request to book with them again.”

“Lauren was absolutely amazing with my 16-year-old Chihuahua, Ralph! This was his first time staying with a sitter instead of family or friends, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went. She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Ralph did great—even around her two much larger dogs, which was such a relief! Lauren created a calm, safe environment, and her communication was top-notch. I’m so grateful for the care she gave him and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Sarah was great with my dog Vala! We did a meet and greet beforehand since this was my first time using Rover. Her own dogs are so cute and I felt comfortable leaving Vala with her and her dogs for the weekend. She provided photos/updates while I was away, which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely be using Sarah again in the future!”

“Our puppy really enjoyed his time with Ashley. He got to run and play, and got the exercise he needed. She updated us with pictures regularly. It seems like she genuinely loves our dog and enjoyed having him. We really appreciated how she cared for our dog and communicated with us throughout our time away.”

“couldn't be happier with the help Melvin and his partner gave us, we were at a bind and they came to the rescue! On top of that our Moka was treated like family and they sent pictures regularly, we will definitely ask for their help later on. 1000% recommended !”

“Sam kept Appa very happy. She sent pictures to show he was doing well. Immediately when we got out of the car, she engaged with Appa and it was obvious this would be a good place for him to stay. I would strongly recommend Sam and if I have a future need I hope she will be available.”

“SO so grateful to have found both Jacob and his wife through Rover - I think I suffer from far worse separation anxiety being away from my dog than she does being away from me (?) however, after meeting these two and their own four rescue dogs during a pre-boarding meet and greet, I had absolutely no worries that she would be in great hands. They were both SO kind, communicative, and welcoming. Their genuine compassion and love for dogs was immediately obvious, as was the fact that they both possess thorough knowledge of canine care and behavior. Wrigley even immediately recognized the house when I dropped her off and was so excited for her stay - that and the consistent updates/photos/communication gave me SUCH peace of mind and I will absolutely be reaching out for any future dog sitting needs. Thank you both SO much!!”

“Terry & Chuckie are the Best! They took excellent care of our baby girl while we were away and made sure to send us daily updates with pictures and videos. I would definitely recommend them.”

“She was amazing, kept me updated with pictures and how he was doing my Jordan didn't want to leave he was all over Linda kinda like say bye but kept coming back , thank you so much Linda ♥️”


“Donna was great with dog sitting piper. We were out of state for about a week, but we were happy to know that Piper was having fun with the other dogs she was watching. She was sure to set up a meet and greet before hand as well so we knew it was a good fit.”

“Our dog’s stay with Susan was absolutely wonderful! She loved on her endlessly and exercised her frequently which was so good for our 4 year old lab. Any dog would love their stay with Susan 😊”

“I am a repeat customer. Kalee is an absolute GEM! Our first time with Kalee, she was very professional. She offered a meet and greet then once we arrived she spent additional rime with Buster and I just reviewing his care and allowed Bust we to explore and get used to his surroundings. I have decided that Kalee is our one and only sitter, Buster loves her and his new fur baby brother! I definitely recommend Kalee as a professional, caring and flexible sitter!”

“It’s always great having peace of mind when we drop our dog off here. We have used Pam Several times and we have always been happy with her services and updates”

“Breanna is amazing- our dog loves her! She took such great care of her while we were away and sent us photos of her enjoying her stay at Breanna's home. She has been a long-time care taker for our dog because she is reliable and caring. 10/10 recommend!”

John Ball Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jillian and her family are some of the best dog sitters I’ve ever come across. They welcomed my senior dog into their home and cared for him as if he were their own. They regularly sent photos, happily accommodated his medication needs, and were so patient with all of his little quirks. I trust them completely with my beloved pet and can’t express how grateful I am for such a kind, nurturing family.
Paige is the BEST! She took magnificent care of our bulldog, Darla who requires a lot of attention and lovies. Paige sent daily reports, funny anecdotes about Darla’s and sweet pics of our pudgy princess. She’s also very attentive and gives expertise in her care. I would highly recommend her and hope to book her again. Thank you so much, Paige!

Alexis took excellent care of our 2 dogs while we were gone for a week on vacation. We were a little nervous leaving them with someone new, knowing we were traveling out of the country. She communicated promptly to my inquiries and sent us numerous photos and text updates throughout the week. We were thrilled to hear that our dogs got along great with her dog and had a fun week playing together. Thank you Alexis! We will be sure to reach out for any future vacation needs!
