“Apple was amazing! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog under her care, she sent me updates continually so I never had to worry about how my pet was doing. She was super communicative and friendly, I will definitely be coming back to her for any future care needs!”


“Wei really took good care of my dog during his stay. She would send me professionally taken photographs of my dog everyday which is a bonus. She has a cute fenced yard for dogs to relieve themselves. My dog was taken on long walks twice a day. I would definitely use her help again. A big thank you for making my furry baby feel at home ?”


“Lauryn is absolutely amazing!!! She saved our vacation after some issues with the place we were staying at. Our dog loved her! I will definitely be using her anytime we are in San Diego.”


“Cristina was the best!! my first time leaving my baby with someone and she sents lots of updates and he had so much fun playing with her dogs and running in the backyard, will definitely use her again:)”


“May is super responsive and gave us peace of mind with daily pics of our pup. We especially loved the photos with their sweet dog Pepper🥰 Our dog enjoyed the daily walks and time at the park. Wouldn’t hesitate to leave her in May & Marc’s care again.”


“Da Sol was absolutely wonderful with my pups! I got multiple updates each day with photos and videos. They clearly had a blast with her, and it is obvious that she is amazing with animals. I won’t hesitate to book with her again!”

About: Hi, I’m Max! I'm lifelong dog lover and owner who absolutely enjoy opening my home to furry guests. I can also pick you dog up from you place and drop them off. Medication & Special Needs: Need someone with experience administering medication? You’re in good hands. Just give me clear directions, and I’ll handle the rest. I work full-time from home, which means your pup will get plenty of love, attention, and outdoor time throughout the day. Dogs bring me joy, energy, and a great excuse to step away from the computer screen. I have a fully fenced, backyard that’s perfect for sunbathing. Dogs are welcome to hang out inside or out as they please (except upstairs), and I offer cozy beds or cool floors depending on your dog’s preference.

“Yue is great! My dog stayed with her for 4 days. She updated me with pictures and videos and detailed information about the walks, feed and my dog emotional behaviour during my absence… she was super kind! I definitely recommend Yue and I will certainly consider Yue in the future to take care of my dog!”


About: Hi! My name is Claire and I’m a PhD student at UCSD. I love dogs and am experienced with taking care of them. I’ve been using Wag for the past year and just started on Rover. I will make sure keep the communications clear throughout during the service. Thank you for choosing and trusting me! I'm currently a PhD student with lots of time working from home. I'm usually free early morning or night after 4pm on weekdays. My schedule will be more flexible on weekends, depending on my plan, most likely will be free entire Sunday. I live by myself in an apartment and don’t have other pets at home. And I only take one pet at a time for boarding to ensure the most comfortable experience.

“Audrey took great care of Eddie, he was comfortable and happy with her :)”


“Stanley was great, we did a meet and greet before he watched Luna which went well. He is located near a park with a lot of grass which Luna loves. He was able to watch Luna for the requested time and was very polite. He was wonderful with Luna, she loved him!”


“Nico had such a wonderful time staying with Laurie, Captain, and Bronx! Laurie updated us every day with photos and how Nico was doing. Laurie made the entire process so easy, and we were so pleased with the experience - she gave us incredible peace of mind leaving our boy with a boarder for the first time. We will definitely be booking Laurie again!”


“Ruby had a great time staying with Alegra and her family! Alegra was great about providing updates and photos each day, and she has THE BEST backyard for doggos to enjoy. We look forward to using her again for all of our future trips.”


“We are still very new to using sitters vs. leaving our pup with family. We had a great experience boarding with Meagan and her husband. Upon getting to her home our dog excitedly ran up to them as if he’d known them for years. Even my teenage daughter commented how they had really good vibes. Daily pictures and communication were reassuring to know he was doing okay. We returned home to a happy pup who was well taken care of. We’d be happy to have them care for our dog again.”


“Couldn’t say enough positive things about our dogs stay with Mayank. I knew our dog was well taken care of while we were on vacation. Mayank Was very quick to respond to me and sent tons of pictures of our dog”

“I am very pleased with the care Michelle provided for Bella. From the beginning, she communicated regularly, sending updates and photos that showed just how happy and comfortable Bella was. It’s clear that Michelle truly loves animals, as she went above and beyond to make sure Bella was well-cared for, safe, and entertained. When I returned, Bella was calm, happy, and healthy—exactly what any pet owner hopes for! I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter.”


“Wow we are impressed with the care Lola received, and the way she overcame her not wanting to eat because of missing her parents. The regular walks and happy feeling Lola showed on her face when we went to pick her up. Constant picture of our happy baby. Thank you for such great service”


“Octavia was great! My dog seemed to really like her, and she sent me photos and kept me updated on how things were going. She was also flexible with the boarding plan and drop off/pickup times which was really helpful. When I picked up my dog from Octavia she seemed very happy and well taken care of.”


“Kristen was the best rover I have ever had! She took care of Maya like she was her own, sent lots of pictures every day, and was very flexible with us when we had changes to our flight schedule. Her home set up is ideal for any pup. I would recommend her to everyone!”

La Jolla Village dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lucas did an amazing job with my pets. He made sure that they felt comfortable and he also allowed me the opportunity to feel calm about leaving them given that it was my first time leaving them overnight with somebody. He provided me updates and reassured me that they were doing well.

Olivia was great! She took amazing care of our pup while we were away and kept us updated the whole time. It made us feel really comfortable knowing our dog was in such good hands

Ava took great care of Aspen, making sure she got exercise and stimulation. Already booking her next boarding with Ava!

Shauna was wonderful with our dog who ended up needing extra attention and care. She communicated consistently and helped Kona feel at ease and comfortable. We appreciated that Kona had access to a safe outdoor space as well! Highly recommended :)

Christina was amazing and my pup loved staying with her. She is so friendly and communicated with me so well the whole time! Loved all the pics and updates she sent. Would def have my pup stay with her again.

Cynthia and Antonio are awesome! They send great updates on how your pet is doing and offer clear communication. Our girl always comes back happy :)

Lauren was an excellent sitter! Her communication was great—I really appreciated the daily updates and photos. She took wonderful care of my dog, including administering multiple medications without any issues. Thoughtful and detail-oriented. I’d book her again without hesitation!

So thankful for Josh. Our family was leaving town and last minute our pup got an eye infection, needing ointment applied multiple times a day. He was super understanding, and thanks to him keeping up with applying it, Maple's infection has cleared up. I appreciate you so much! Thanks for making sure she's healthy, it means a lot to us!

Alegra did a great job taking care of my dog while I was on vacation. She gave me regular updates which put my mind at ease, and I could see he was getting plenty of exercise and attention each day. I’ll definitely board with Alegra again! Thanks for such great care!

Laurie did an absolutely fantastic job caring for our pup Moxie (boarding in her home) while we were away for five days. We’ve only had Moxie for a couple of months, so we were a bit nervous leaving her. She’s a rescue with a few quirks and is still adjusting. From the moment I read Laurie’s profile, I felt reassured. Her thoughtful description, attention to detail, and the thoughtful questions she asked early on gave me confidence that Moxie would be in great hands. We were also able to visit Laurie’s home and introduce Moxie to her and her pup before booking, which was a huge comfort. Moxie had a blast - she’s high energy and loved playing with the other dogs in Laurie’s care. I really appreciated that there was a good balance: socialization without being overwhelming. Laurie doesn’t overextend herself and provides a calm, attentive environment. Throughout Moxie’s stay, Laurie was incredibly communicative. I received regular updates (often more than one a day) with lots of photos and notes that kept me totally at ease. Laurie was also able to handle pickup and drop-off, which made our early departure and late return so much easier. She also shared helpful insight about Moxie’s behavior while in her care - something we really appreciated as we’re still getting to know our pup. All in all, outstanding. I’d reach out to Laurie again in a heartbeat. She’ll definitely be our go-to moving forward!

Carolyn and her family were amazing with Luna! She sent lots of photos and thoughtful updates throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Luna was happy, loved, and in great hands. I’ll definitely be booking with Carolyn again! Highly recommend.

This was my first experience with Rover and it was fabulous. My 14 year old poodle was loved and cared for by Amber. I was able to relax on my vacation seeing from the photos how relaxed Coco was. I feel very fortunate to have met Amber and her family

Wei is wonderful with our pup Luna - she is loved so much when she is there - and enjoys the play time and walks. Thanks Wei

Leila was a great sitter for our dog! She was communicative, punctual, and was able to watch him last minute. We would definitely use her again!

Marissa was super attentive and made sure my baby felt comfortable in her home 🤍 I was nervous leaving him with someone during Fourth of July but Marissa ensured he was protected and safe. She sent me lots of photos and updates during his stay. 10/10 would recommend

Yue is an excellent sitter. Sends lots of photos and videos! Very professional dog sitter. Dazzle had a great time with her.

Zach is the best! Sent pics when we were away to let me know he was doing great. Would highly recommend!

Siqi is very tentative responsive dog-loving. She takes really good care of my sensitive dog and I really appreciate her help very much!
