“Our dog Clementine had an amazing time staying with Carmen and her dog Cathy for six nights. Carmen’s genuine love and attentiveness toward dogs really stood out—she cared for Clementine as if she were her own. I truly appreciated the daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Clementine was happy and well cared for. Carmen even went the extra mile by introducing her to fun puzzles and healthy treats. It was clear Clementine felt right at home, and I’m sure she’d be more than happy to stay with Carmen again.”

“Brittany was amazing with our dog Luna! It was our first time booking with Rover and we felt so comfortable while we were away that Luna was in the best of hands! She sent us a ton of adorable updates, photos, and videos cuddling and on walks and playing with other dogs. Luna also never eats much when she’s not home staying at other places and Brittany sent photos of Luna licking her bowl clean which made us so happy! Definitely book with Brittany she is the best, Luna will be back!”

“Lucero took wonderful care of my dog and gave her so much love and attention while I was away. They played together, went on multiple park outings, and Lucero even brushed her and spoiled her with treats. It was clear my pup felt happy, safe, and cared for the entire time. Lucero is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and trustworthy — your dog will absolutely be in the best hands with her!”

“Jennifer was awesome! She was available to watch our dog within a weeks notice and took such good care of him 😀 sent tons of photos and updates. We felt super comfortable and safe knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend using Jennifer if you ever need a sitter in the area. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️”


“We could not have chosen a better sitter to leave our little doggo with! Tim & Andrea took great care of her and updated us regularly with pictures and videos. Lily had so much fun meeting new friends! We’re grateful to have found Tim & Andrea as we now have a sitter we can trust with our baby ?. Thank you!”

“Ryan was great! He accommodated a last minute need when my sitter fell through and he was wonderful. Kept me updated and very responsive when I reached out. Finn came back to me happy as ever - will absolutely be booking Ryan again!”

“I can't say enough great things about Ellie! She cared for a recent rescue when I had to go out of town for a few days. She made my girl feel right at home and sent regular pics and videos which made me feel confident about her care from start to finish. When she found a couple of fleas on my put during her stay, she was so calm and helpful working with me from afar to take care of it. When my flight was delayed coming home, she even agreed to care for my pup until I could get back to town. Will definitely rebook with Ellie again!”

“Jamie was great! Pup was very nervous going into a new space, but by the end of the weekend was playing and settling in. Got great pictures and videos during her stay that put me at ease the first time boarding her. Jamie will definitely be a top choice when needing to board in the future.”


“Roxy is the absolute best! This was my first time leaving my 5 month old pup with someone else overnight, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Roxy sent multiple updates throughout the stay, and sent so many adorable pictures! My pup had such a fun time running around in the backyard, and playing with two other small pups who she was also watching at the time. I will absolutely contact Roxy any time I need care for my pup, and would recommend her to everyone!”

“Our second stay with Steph was great. She followed all instructions to the last detail and Frida came home happy and healthy. We look forward to booking with Steph again.”

“Jess and Max were very flexible with drop-off and pick up. Our dog is a very nervous and anxious dog but they made sure to give her space for the first day, which helped a lot. Our dog eventually warmed up quickly to them. Jess and Max were extremely communicative and gave pictures/updates at least twice a day! Will for sure use them again.”


“It’s been a while since I’ve booked a sitter through Rover due to a negative past experience so I was hesitant doing it again. However, I was in a bind & had to do a last minute booking. And I am so glad to have booked with Brendan. Moose stayed with him for 5 days and came back super tired from the adventures with Brendan. We received daily photos & videos of their trips to the park and beach. Moose is a little reactive to other dogs & it felt like he came back from Brendan’s a little calmer. He gave me tips on how I can help with Moose’s reactive behavior towards other dogs. Brendan is a life saver & we’re definitely going to rebook with him again.”

“Bambi had a great stay with Andrew’s family! We are very happy with the experience and our dog is a lot less stressed than when he typically goes to the daycare/boarding. Andrew also sends many updates throughout the stay which is great to know. Highly recommend!”


“Thank you Rosario and Ryan for another wonderful stay🥰 It was Bisco’s first overnight stay with them, and she sometimes doesn’t eat because she can get a little nervous/anxious at a stranger’s house, but she ate her meal with them just fine. Thank you for providing a clean, warm, comfortable, and safe space for Bisco🙏🏻 Will book again and highly recommend for other fur parents!”

“Justin and Kristy were wonderful! Our pup Goose stayed with them for about a week, and he had an awesome time getting his paws wet and playing in the backyard with Huxley and their daughter (she is great with dogs too!). They also took him to the beach one day (with our permission of course)! And we got daily photo updates :) They're great, responsible people who love dogs -- highly recommend!!”

“Mia was so amazing with our dog Sydney. Syd is a super hyperactive pitbull who demands a lot of love 😂 and Mia showered her with love and attention all week. I felt really comfortable leaving her there for the week while we were out of town. She clearly has a lot of experience with dogs and was a A* communicator!”

“Lizzie did a wonderful job looking after my golden retriever. Rilee for a week while I was traveling for business. She sent daily texts, giving me updates as well as photos to show me how well my baby was doing . I plan to use Lizzie again next month. And would highly recommend her services to anyone who needs a caring and responsible pet sitter.”

“Kimberley is the best!! She kept my kitty in a smaller space so that she can acclimate better to the new location and would slowly expose my kitty to other pets if there’s any. Kimberley is very responsible and communicative. Will definitely book with her again!!”

Mar Vista dog parents share their Rover experiences
If I could give more stars I would!! Jana & Sam (& their boys!) were incredible. They took such wonderful care of my senior dog Sophie and were so great with communicating updates, sending photos, answering questions, and always got back to me quickly. Her boys were so sweet and gentle with my girl, too, and Jana shared some seriously cute photos of them interacting. They even took her to one of the boys’ baseball games (and of course made sure it was okay with me first) and it seems like Sophie had a blast there running around. They have a beautiful home and had a yard where Sophie could go out, which was really nice, and they also allowed her to hang out on the couch with them, something I know she throughly enjoyed! They were flexible with drop-off/pickup times, too, and even allowed me to extend the stay an extra night when my plane was unexpectedly delayed. Sophie did unfortunately have a couple of unforeseen health challenges arise during her stay (of course said challenges had nothing to do with Jana or Sam! Just some age-related stuff) and they handled everything so well, they were so communicative, honest, and went out of their way to take her to the urgent care vet as I couldn’t get an appointment with my primary vet until after I returned. They spent time calling around, gave me multiple options, gave me an idea of the cost, and allowed me to choose which one they took her to, making sure I was involved throughout every step. They provided honest input when asked (I am terribly indecisive sometimes and asked for their opinion), made sure I was able to speak with the vet during the visit and that I knew exactly what was happening during the appointment, and they never overstepped any bounds, respecting any decisions or wishes I had about how to proceed with the treatment. By the time I picked Sophie up from her stay, she was almost completely recovered and happy as a clam. It was clear she had had a great time and that she was extremely well cared for. Jana also provided me with detailed notes when I picked her up about the medication the vet had prescribed, as well as notes about her health and behavior that were extremely helpful, as I only just adopted her a couple of months ago and am still learning about her patterns and behaviors. I’m sure there’s something I’m missing, but long story very long, they were absolutely incredible. Having only recently adopted Sophie, I was nervous about traveling and having to leave her, but knowing she was in such good hands while I was away lifted that huge weight of anxiety/worry off my shoulders, and I just can’t thank Jana & Sam enough! 20/10 - highly highly recommend!

Hailey took wonderful care of our 6-month-old puppy, Piper, while we were away for a week. She sent lots of updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind, and was always quick to respond whenever we had questions. It was clear that Piper was having a great time and getting plenty of attention and care. We came home to a happy puppy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’d absolutely book with Hailey again for boarding or any other service. Highly recommend!

Oliwia was absolutely fantastic and took care of our furry kids as of her own! She sent lots of pictures and videos and shared updates daily. One of my boys got a pretty bad case of allergies and she went above and beyond trying to help him. I can’t thank her and her husband Phil enough for being so caring and kind to our Cholo and Ermano!!!

This was a wonderful experience—our dog was so well cared for and clearly loved being with Yeyen. She was so great at communicating and sending pics and clearly is responsible, kind, and a dog lover. Will absolutely use leave our Charlie with her again, so grateful!

I really couldn’t have asked for better guardian angels for our girls than Limo and her family. How lucky we are to have stumbled upon her profile. Limo made the hard separation flawless with more photos and updates than I could’ve asked for as a reasonable Roveree. Thank you Limo for taking such good care of our precious babies! I’ll also just mention that our dogs spent the first night back waiting in front of the door for their “new” family 🥹. That says it all!

Mia was an excellent dog sitter for Oscar. She took great care of him, kept me updated consistently, and sent plenty of photos throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind. Oscar was happy and well cared for, and I would definitely recommend Mia to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.
