“Caroline was a gem! She was very accommodating of the last minute request and the way she wanted to do a short meet and greet prior to my dog’s stay, it felt very genuine of her to ensure her dogs and my dog had a good introduction. I was nervous about leaving my dog Berkeley for a week, but Caroline and her family really loved on Berkeley like their own and I really loved that she sent frequent photos, videos, and updates about how Berkeley was doing.”

“Maisha is the best dog sitter ever! She sends updates/pictures often, and ensured that my fur baby was having the best time. He enjoyed his stay!”

“Veronica was fantastic! As an outdoor cat, finding someone who could care for Juno, with safety as the first priority, but also allow her to retain her sense of freedom and independence was always going to be a tough ask. We found that with Veronica - would highly recommend! Very kind, sent us lots of photos and even got Juno some special treats and toys.”

“Ninoska was our very first experience using Rover, and she absolutely set the bar high! From the moment we met her during the meet-and-greet, we felt at ease she was warm, informative, and so welcoming. We were nervous first-time puppy parents leaving our 15-week-old Lola for the first time, but Ninoska made the whole process smooth and stress-free. While we were away for 4 days, she sent us regular updates with adorable photos and videos of Lola playing and looking so happy. Lola clearly felt at home she even ate more than usual (I think she gained a healthy little pound!), and her tummy was doing great. Ninoska even shared some recipes and snack tips that worked wonders for Lola. Truly a 10/10 experience. Ninoska is not just a sitter she’s a puppy/dog whisperer, and we’re so lucky we found her. We love her and so does Lola!”

“Jenny was great with our dig, Riley. She asked lots of smart questions to be sure Riley was getting the best care and staying on his routine. She sent photos and was very accommodating when out flight delay resulted in a later than expected pick up. I highly recommend Jenny and will certainly call on her again.”

“Andria cared for our elderly pup with tenderness and love. She was very patient and understanding of a senior dog. We received daily updates and photos. Blue was very well cared for, and we are grateful.”

“Danielle and Jason were amazing hosts for Onyx! 🐶 Danielle sent me daily photo updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. They’re such warm, personable people who clearly adore dogs and treat them like family. Onyx was so happy and comfortable the whole time. I’ll definitely be booking with them again! 🤗”

“I will definitely book Tynesha and her family again, they were wonderful the entire time Empire was with them. Constant photos and updates throughout his time. Thank you again🩷”

“Thank you for looking after my dog Lexi over the weekend, you have such a great personality and wonderful atmosphere! I’m 100% satisfied with your service. You kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which is so reassuring. Lexi left happy and there were no issues during her stay. I recommend Yuberkis as a reliable dog sitter and will definitely use her services again in the future. Thank you so so much for taking such good care of Lexi! 🫶🏻”

“Wow! What an exceptional experience. Melanie was so lovely and attentive. Our large breed dog Jerome had major surgery so we reserved Melanie months in advance for Thanksgiving travel. She was super accommodating, visited Jerome prior to the reservation and invited us to visit her home to assure us he’d be in a secure space as he continued his healing. She regularly sent adorable photos of Jerome to show us he was content. Melanie is a GREAT caregiver, not just a dog sitter. She’ll always be our first choice in the future.”

“I was so at ease , knowing our Ashley was with Walter and Katherine. They kept us updated on her time with them,Via messages and photos. Their dog Oliver is a great dog , with a perfect demeanor to play with others! We are so glad to meet them, and look forward to future doggy dates with them and Oliver.”


“We had a last minute emergency occur 2 hours before leaving for our Christmas vacation and needed a sitter asap for our pup - we reached out and T responded almost immediately and took Ralphie in while we were away. Ralphie LOVED his time there! She took such great care of my baby in a pinch of time too. We are so thankful will definitely rebook.”

“Darien is everything we could ask for in a dog sitter. Our dogs always have so much fun from playing in their big, clean backyard and receive a lot of love from Darien and her family. After a fun day, my dogs always end their day sleeping peacefully and comfortably. Darien also somehow magically makes my dogs even more behaved than ever, and they always come home refreshed and happy. The dogs have deemed Darien’s home as their favorite vacation destination, and will always trust Darien with my dogs any time!”

“Neide Was wonderful!! Teddy had a great time with her, she kept him busy and always kept me in the loop with videos and photos as well as messages, I will absolutely recommend her and will be using her again!! Such a nice lady.”

“Basil loved staying with Daisy and Phil! They took amazing care of our Basil, and sent us photos and updates on Basil daily. Basil gets (kind of a lot of) pills each morning, and they did a great job dealing with her specific special needs. Will be returning, thank you!”

Lower Vailsburg dog parents share their Rover experiences
Veronica is absolutely incredible! She took such wonderful care of Tasha and truly went above and beyond. When Tasha was feeling a bit down and lost her appetite, Veronica didn't just ignore it—she actually went out and bought special food to encourage her to eat and spent extra time cheering her up. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the happiness and health of the pups she watches. Tasha came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend Veronica to anyone!
Danielle was absolutely excellent! She was very communicative from start to finish and made the entire experience stress-free. I really appreciated the regular updates—she kept me informed and sent messages that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was in great hands and being well cared for. If you’re considering booking with Danielle, don’t think twice—just book! Highly recommend her services.
My little Muffin had a blast. I booked with Julhiffer again and while I was on vacation she always kept me updated with the cutest videos and pics of my dog having a ball. She creates such a warm and animal friendly atmosphere! She is amazing ! Thank you again!

Jestine was a life safer for accepting my last minute booking! She provided me with updates and pictures throughout the days my dog was there, which gave me a sense of relief since this was my first time leaving my dog with someone who is not family. She also gave me a coupon to try out The Farmers Dog, which I will be using. Jestine was super nice and easy to communicate with. I definitely will be using her services again for the future!

Breanna was an amazing sitter. I received so many picture updates and she was very inquisitive and caring in learning about my dog and his needs. One of the first times that I had no doubt that he was in amazing hands. I will definitely be rebooking and making her my go to sitter!

Ashley and her family were amazing! Highly recommend and will definitely be using again! She constantly sent me pictures of our pup and gave us updates daily. When we went to pickup our dog, she didn't want to leave Ashley's house lol. The best dog sitter we've ever used

Diana was wonderful. She accepted the littles last minute when my vet tech referred her for senior care after a medical boarding when my work trip was unexpectedly extended. She provided a calm stable environment for my senior blind/deaf Yorkie and administered his medication effectively. Her photos showed both dogs happy and cared for and my Maltipoo probably would have preferred to stay with Diana when I picked them up! I highly recommend her, especially if your dog has special needs as she is caring and compassionate.

This was Milo’s second stay with Jullien, and he once again provided excellent care for him. Jullien kept us updated every day and sent us pics of Milo’s adventures, and he was once again very accommodating when our flight was delayed. We are so happy that we found Jullien. It’s so reassuring to know that your pet will be comfortable and happy while you’re away. +++++++++

Doug took excellent care of our dog Winnie! He was incredibly responsive and shared lots of updates and fun pictures. We felt fully at ease and know Winnie was having a great time. We will absolutely be reaching out to Doug again the next time we need help with Winnie!
