“Araceli was amazing she took my dog on in very short notice for the holiday weekend. Very kind, clean home very dog friendly. She treated my dog as if she was her own. She gave updates which was very appreciated. I would 100% book again with her. Thank you so much Araceli.”
“Kaitlin and Verle took such great care of our dog! He was calm and happy when we picked him up, and I would definitely feel comfortable booking again!”
“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”
“Our Clover always gets the best care with Anar. It’s obvious that she enjoys being there when we’re away. She was wiped out after her last stay and passed out snoring when we got her home. Happy dog!”
“Alex took amazing care of my beagle, Rusty, on super short notice—and I couldn’t be more grateful. He was incredibly kind, communicative, and sent multiple photos of Rusty enjoying his walks, which totally put my mind at ease. Rusty told me he had a blast and felt totally safe and loved 🐾😊. I’d absolutely trust Alex again in a heartbeat!”
“It is obvious how much Marwa loves cats and takes great care of them. She was a lifesaver for my Felix as he is newly rescued, was sick and not neutered so I had very limited options on where to board him, but she was happy to have him as her only cat for the week I was gone. He loved her and came back a happy cat.”
“Ana is my go-to sitter in San Diego! My dog gets anxious away from home and Ana created a calm and welcoming environment. He’s also a picky eater but takes oral medication everyday. Ana was able to ensure he was taking his meds. It was such a relief having someone so wonderful and attentive watching him while I was away. I also appreciated all the communication—lots of photos and texts describing daily walks and activities and anything that was out of the normal. Can’t recommend Ana enough!”
“Kylie was amazing!! Super responsive and always willing to show us how our girl was settling in!! She also was very generous with her flexibility when it came to one of our flights getting delayed. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”
“We felt completely at ease leaving our dog with Mark over the holidays. He made sure Apollo was comfortable in his home and was super accommodating to all his little quirks. Mark's communication was excellent, always quick and responsive, which we appreciated. We'd definitely book with him again and recommend him to other dog owners :)”
“Phillip is one of the best dog sitters I’ve found on Rover! He is very attentive, follows care instructions, and was super accommodating to our booking and requests. Thanks for taking such great care of maya and keeping her so active during her visit!!”
“Jocy was amazing with our pup, Bella. We had a great little meet and greet and she made sure our girl was right at home. She sent us notes to clarify her needs before the stay and she sent lots of photos and updates throughout the stay. We would recommend Jocy to anyone!”
“Sam is great with our dog Stewie! Stewie is very shy and it takes time for him to become comfortable around new people. Sam was very patient and kind to Stewie! Will definitely book a stay again!”
“We’ve left our dog, Jenkins, with Melanie a few times and each time she has been great! Easy to communicate with, sends us frequent updates, and Jenkins loves going to her place.”
“Shakyra took great care of our pup and sent picture updates which were greatly appreciated! Will definitely leave our pup with Shakyra again and highly recommend”
“We love having Whitney as our sitter! She’s so friendly and makes our doggies feel welcome in her home. Whitney send us photos everyday and I can tell our dogs enjoy their walks and all the attention they get! Our dog Dany looked very comfortable in their sofa during her last stay haha. You know the sitter’s a winner when your dog gets super excited when we drop off! :)”
“Shelby and her family were kind enough to allow my pup to spend the holidays with them. She is an energetic dog, so knowing she was being taken on walks, runs, to the dog park, etc. meant so much! If you’re looking for your pup to get lots of love and playtime, highly recommend Shelby!”
“Cerita is so accommodating and sweet with Indy. We felt so comfortable leaving him for the night. We got updates and photos, he had so much fun! Indy would love to come back and visit!”
“Beasley loves staying with Michelle and her husband. He is always so relaxed when we pick him up. I can tell he is well loved in their care. Michelle follows all of our instructions and sends daily updates. Highly recommend”

Lucy and Norah went above and beyond to take care of my greyhounds and make sure they had fun at their place. Greyhounds are a sensitive/needy bunch, so that says a lot about the care they received. I’m so grateful. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to them again the next time I need a dog sitter. Thank you both!!
I cannot put into words or say enough positive things about Zaira. I was previously using cage free boarding facilities to board my dog and would constantly worry whenever I was out of town. Wanting less stress for my dog, I opted to try a personal boarding experience through Rover. Zaira was amazing and so patient with my dog being nervous and shy around new people. By the end of the few days, they were best friends and I know my pup is always missing Zaira. If you’re looking for an attentive, sweet and stress free experience for daycare or boarding I highly recommend Zaira. Thank you!!!!
Shakyra did a fantastic job, she took great care of our family member, our dog Riley. It was her first time away from home over night. We got a good update and when I went to pick her up the next morning she was calm and relaxed. Shakyra is very pleasant and communicative that alone put us at ease. She get 5 stars from us. Definitely use her again.
Cole is fantastic! My dog is new to us, a rescue and super energetic, and Cole agreed to meet with us and did a walk with his dog and mine to ensure they would get along which they did. Then during the stay, he sent me pictures and updated me on doggies status. Overall amazing. Thank you Cole!
Genevieve was, as always, a fantastic sitter. We had an emergency and having such a trusted sitter for our dog took such a stress off our shoulders. She sent great pictures and updates, and Charlie had an amazing time playing with Willow and snuggling Genevieve and her husband. Thank you so much and we’ll 1000% book again!
Cass took excellent care of my dog Bailey while I was away on a 6-day trip. She provided excellent communication throughout the booking process from start to finish. The status updates and photos she provided left me completely at ease, knowing Bailey was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Cass, and will keep her in mind for future bookings.
Bryan and Christina were phenomenal hosts to our puppy honey she stayed with them for a month they kept me updated they always had new dog friends for her to play with they had a nice big backyard they were very easy to communicate with my dog came back very happy and healthy would definitely recommend if your dog loves to play with other dogs
I can not begin to recommend Sam enough. He was very quick to respond on initial meet and greet. Then continued with outstanding communication throughout the rest of our girls visit, keeping us at ease. Updating us everyday on how they were getting along and sending pictures of them enjoying their pup vacation at Sam’s awesome home perfectly suited for dog sitting. Over a wonderful experience, would definitely rebook.
