Caroline D went above and beyond in taking care of our shih tzu dog, Faith. I could tell that Faith was genuinely happy to have spent two nights with her.

Milena was amazing I felt so comfortable leaving my sick girl with her. She was careful to write down all medication instructions (4 different medications taken 2 or 3 times a day) She was also kind to me - I had never left my dog with a stranger let alone when she was sick. I am sooo grateful Milena helped me. She sent pictures and told me how everything was going. I have already asked her to be my go to when I must leave my dog for a few days. She is awesome … so loving and caring I felt soooo lucky to have happened upon a kind soul to care for my helpless sick dog while I had to be away. I highly recommend her and am soo grateful to have met her on this app - Milena thank you for your help.

Let me start by saying this was my first time using Rover ever. Andrew was so helpful and reassuring and explained everything to me. Additionally, while I was away he kept me up to date with texts and pictures of Finn. Finn had a great time with Andrew and you can just tell Andrew knew exactly how to best care for my puppy. Thank you so much!!

I am so grateful for the amazing care my dog received! I had to leave out of state unexpectedly and realized at the last minute that I had made arrangements for everyone except our family dog. Thankfully, Klainer stepped in without hesitation and made the entire experience stress-free. Klainer kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was being cared for with love, patience, and attention. I truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and professionalism. I will most definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter!

Ivanna was amazing with my baby and provided reliable and professional dog boarding in the Union NJ area. She created a safe and caring environment and followed all of her care instructions perfectly. My baby felt comfortable and happy throughout the entire stay, and the frequent photo updates gave me so much peace of mind. She came home relaxed, well fed, and clearly loved. I highly recommend Ivanna to anyone looking for trustworthy overnight dog boarding or a caring pet sitter, and I will definitely book with her again.

Doug and Luiz took great care of our girls while we were away. We were first time Rover users but they clearly know what they are doing. They have their house set up really well and have seen it all. They gave us lots of updates and are very safety focused. I especially appreciate them putting airtags on the dogs upon check in and every entry/exit point is double gated. Really conscientious dog lovers who set up towel pathways for my dog who gets scared of tile/wood floors. Will for sure use again!

It’s always uncomfortable leaving a pet in a new place but with Angie that feeling vanished quickly. She’s responsive and punctual and great with animals. I could tell my pup was happy and relaxed in the pics she sent while I was away. Zeus had such a good stay he didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up!

Connor did a great job with my Schnauzer Margo, who can be rather "excitable" at times. She seemed to feel at home immediately around Connor and his dog Maggie and I think she actually enjoyed her time with them. I will definitely return to Connor.

I am a first time dog owner and left our 1 year old Puppy with Manuel for four nights. We were anxious at first but Manuel quickly put us at ease with his responsiveness and his experience with dog care. He is truly one of a kind. I highly recommend his services and we will absolutely use him in the future!

Caroline was amazing! So kind and friendly. Pogo went for a visit to meet the pack and on the day of his stay he was so eager for her to open the door. When she took him by his leash he walked off and never looked back. She has a large fenced in yard with plenty of grass for the dogs to run around and have a sniffing feast. Will definitely use again when I come back in town!

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!

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. +++++++++

Anna is such an amazing doggy host. Theo was so adorable and friendly. Her backyard is absolutely perfect. It's huge, wide open, totally fenced in, so much flat grass and even a patio for Reggie to cool off on. Reggie didn't want to leave when we picked him up and when we got home Reggie fell asleep so quick. It was such a relief to find such an amazing host who treated my dog like her own. 5 ⭐️'s all around!!!
