“Ryan was a phenomenal sitter! He was quick to accept my last minute request. He was attentive and followed all my instructions while sending video and picture updates at my preferred cadence! Ryan is great with dogs and even offered a few toys and treats of his own while checking with me first to see if ok. Ryan was an amazing sitter and I plan to use him again!”
“Michael is simply the greatest dog boarder in the history of the world. When you book through Michael, though, you don't just get him, you also get his amazing wife, too. Michael took care of my dog Lucas during a medical emergency. I was at work at the hospital after midnight. We were terribly low-staffed. There was no one to take over my patients. If I'd left work, I probably would have lost my license and been fired for abandonment. Michael took my dog to an emergency 24 hour vet and didn't get back home until like 2 in the morning. The care he took of my dog went above and beyond. He is awesome, he is amazing, he is smart and capable and caring, I cannot say enough good things about him. You can trust your fur babies with Michael. With him and his wife, they are in amazing hands. It's always scary entrusting your canine children to a stranger, but with Michael you realize that he's not a stranger, he's the family member you didn't know you had. Thank you Michael!!!”
“Eva is such a warm, thoughtful dog sitter. She texts with any questions and my dogs felt right at home with her. She is great about taking them for walks in Central Park and sending great pics. She truly loves dogs and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Tiffany is so wonderful. She was so kind and sent us updates about our dog. We just moved to NYC and our dog has separation anxiety. She is the perfect companion for our pup Leche when we have to be away from home for long periods of time. So glad we found Tiffany.”
“This was the second time my Noodles spent time with John. He came home super calm, happy and tired which is so unusual for this energetic puppy. Thank you so much!”
“Each time we leave Nutmeg in Euitae’s hands we know she will receive the best care and love. She loves staying there and her walks in the park, and we love the photos, communication and updates.”
“Lal, Matt & Hank were great! My doggy boys stayed with them for a week while we were travelling out of state and they looked like they were having a nice little doggy vacation themselves with their new found friends. Lal would keep us updated with how our boys were doing by also posting pictures and videos along with the texts and e-mails. Lal really took the time to get to know the boys well specially during their meet and greet. Plus the fact that their LabraDoodle, Hank got along very well with the boys made me really feel at ease. I would definitely pick them again for our upcoming travels. So happy to know that my doggy boys were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommended.”
“Michael was incredibly accommodating and patient in caring for my senior dog on such a short notice. He was attentive, communicative, and responsive.”
“Bailey has been truly a blessing. Her dog, Duke, is an absolute gentleman and has become my dog’s bestie! Bailey is highly communicative, thoughtful, and above all else, treats my dog like her own. I am so grateful to have found Bailey! I will absolutely be rebooking!”
“Took great care of StarFox! I know my dog enjoyed his stay and I appreciate all the time spent with him playing and walking. My dog had a prior injury and he got the best care and attention possible, even a visit to the vet, medical instructions, everything was taken care of. My dog was taken care of like he was family! My dog is a clever fox, so he can be a handful sometimes. Fantastic job and would definitely book again when I’m out of town. Great photos too and updates!”
“Luis and Ana were delightful people who took great care of my elderly basset hound, and for 8 days no less! Highly recommended and would book with them again.”
“Roman is a spectacular sitter, you couldn’t ask for better! Very communicative and responsive, took great photos and sent lovely updates. My pup had a wonderful time with him and I’d definitely board with him again!”
“Angelique was a lifesaver. She took care of our sweet boy while we were away for the weekend. She was so attentive and communicative when he had unexpected stomach issues and made sure our boy was well taken care of. Truly appreciate her and could not recommend more highly!”
“Sabrina is incredible and took special care of my dog. She keeps in constant contact with photos and videos. This was my first time using Rover and I will definitely book with Sabrina again. 10/10 fully recommend her!”
“Mykala and her partner took great care of my dog Tails! It was a fairly last minute request for multiple days of boarding so I was very relieved to find good caregivers for him. They provided lots of updates and Tails enjoyed spending time with their dog Boots. I would book again!”
“Adam was great with my cat, Griffin. It was obvious my cat was very happy and well taken care of. I wish that I knew Adam booked multiple animals - both dogs and cats - in his home at a time. That said, the dog he owns, Hermes, is awesome and super friendly; Griffin and Hermes were immediately friends. Adam was also very responsive. Will definitely book with Adam again!”
“Merin was AMAZING!! I really felt Moose was being well taken care of and left me with such peace of mind while on vacation. She was super thorough, gave constant updates, and reached out with any questions/concerns. Hands down we found our go to sitter which is the best feeling knowing I have someone to trust to take care of Moose when I need a little R&R! Thank you!!”
“Sarah gave Dante an outstanding stay caring for him while we were away visiting family do 3 days. She sent plenty of photos and kept us updated several times a day on how he was doing. She took Dante on 2-3 walks a day and gave him plenty of opportunities to make new furry friends at Central Park. Highly recommend Sarah and hope we can work together again!”
Manhattan dog parents share their Rover experiences
Onur was great! He was super communicative, sending us lots of pictures of Bubbles having adventures around the neighborhood and making us feel really at ease. Our pup is also new (we adopted her 2 months ago) and he was very patient and flexible as she adjusted to her new environment and settled into his apartment. Would definitely work with him again!
Genevieve was absolute delight. Fantastic sitter. My pup Maize gladly right at home and behaved as such. She provided daily pics and updates. Would absolutely rebook and cross the GW bridge and RFK to have Maize with her. It was a short booking and short notice but top notch. It is obvious she is an animal lover. Good aura!
Our little pup Reggie had the best time staying with Hawthorne and Wei! They clearly love all dogs and will take extra special care of yours. Reggie looked so happy in all of the pictures they sent us. This was the best home away from home that we could have asked for!
Yuan and her husband, Ian, were amazing with my dog, Kimber! I really appreciate how communicative Yuan was and all the videos of Kimber she sent. He looked so comfortable, happy, and loved. He developed an issue with his nail/paw the night before I dropped him off with Yuan, and she was very attentive. I felt completely at ease having her monitor his paw. I could tell immediately when I picked Kimber up that he had the best time with Yuan and Ian. Highly recommend them to anyone who’s looking for a dogsitter! I’m already planning on booking with them again for my upcoming summer travels!
I definitely recommend Joel as a pet sitter! They took excellent care of Lulu, providing lots of love, attention, and updates throughout her stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my Lulu was in such caring and responsible hands. Lulu was happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned. I will definitely be booking with them again!
Fantastic experience! Angela was caring, reliable, and kept us updated throughout our dog’s stay. Our dog was happy and well cared for, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. We would definitely use their services again and highly recommend them. Thank you!
This was the fifth time our Neon stayed with Seoyoung and Donguk. During all stays, Neon was well taken care of and we had good faith our beloved dog was in good hands. We received lots of pictures and updates, so we could travel with peaceful mind. Thank you so much :)
Onelsis is fabulous! I was super nervous about boarding With a new sitter, from the moment I got to her place she put my fears at ease. Good energy and clean space; super friendly and her pup Miley is a sweetie. Lots of photo updates and texts through the day. It was such a great first experience. I will definitely be booking her again for Kaiyo !
