“Mounika, Abhi and their puppy Tinko were phenomenal hosts to our 2 year old frenchton. They welcomed us for a meet and greet before our trip and sent us updates and a video of the dogs playing. It was our first time leaving our puppy and we had no worries as we knew he is well taken care of. They looked after our puppy as they do for their puppy! Very friendly and welcoming family!”
“Excellent experience. My Maisy was well taken care of and comfortable while we were away. We were given plenty of updates and photos for peace of mind. 10/10 experience and will definitely use their services again and recommend to friends and family.”
“I have trusted Jessica & Nathaniel to care for my dog, Sunshine, while I was out of town a couple times now. They have consistently been very communicative/quick to respond, flexible and understanding when I had to do late pickups due to travel delays, and attentive to Sunshine’s medication schedule. Most importantly, I could tell Sunshine enjoyed her stay in their very dog friendly home. She remembered their house and was ready to jump out of the car as soon as we pulled up for her second visit!”
“Charles was AMAZING with Mika! She came back tired and extremely happy, which means a lot after spending the week on vacation and coming home exhausted. Thank you for caring for my girl!”
“Christopher was great! He was willing to accept my request last minute, and Axel had a great time. He kept him walked, engaged, and updated me throughout the stay. He was also very understanding and accommodating when I had to reschedule pickup due to an unforeseen situation. On top of that, he responded to messages very quickly. I’d definitely book with him again!”
“Luka, who normally has separation anxiety whenever he senses that I'm leaving on a trip, pulls me towards Shannon's front door when we arrive. He clearly always has a great time, and Shannon is excellent about keeping me updated during his stays. She is highly recommended from me and Luka.”
“This was the best stay my puppies have EVER had. They were so happy, but still happy to see me. They were cared for beautifully, and that is a job! And they got so much love and attention. I can't thank Taylor and Dave and Fin (and Trudy) enough.”
“Very responsive and was excellent for my anxious girl’s first stay away from home. Sent updates as requested and loved them both allowing us to enjoy our vacation knowing that our fur babies were getting the love we would have been giving.”
“Caitlyn took wonderful care of Teddy while we were away for 3 days .She gave us total peace of mind with prompt communication. Highly reliable and genuinely loves dogs. We will definitely use her again!”
“Rattan and Parveen are amazing hosts, reliable and caring. I felt comfortable knowing Laila was in safe hands. They sent photos and videos daily. Highly recommended!”
“Arya and Koda had a blast at Srini’s and Surya’s house. They are very caring and super friendly hosts. Shared a lot of photos and videos during the booking which kept us comfortable. Would definitely book with them again.”
“Amber & Ronnie well excited to meet Milo. Milo has a separation anxiety and possessive nature. Amber said no problem. We can take care of him. I’m very happy with their care. They were even flexible to pick up and drop Milo. They give me constant updates on how he was doing. I highly recommend them.”
“So happy we found Perla and Victor! Ollie had so much fun and he was very well taken care of. They were very responsive, sent lots of pictures and videos and had great communication. We’re excited we found a new go-to sitter.”
“Rinna was great! She kept in contact with pictures of our babies and I appreciated how thorough she was with booking expectations, etc. Our pups had a great vacation while we did!”
“Nicole took care of our puppy very well as I did not feel Leo missed us much after 4 days when we came back. He was there around kids and pets and that might be the reason to come back home happy. And also Nicole posted us his pictures so we did not miss him and enjoyed our vacation.”
“Jenny was fantastic! We left our 15 week old beagle puppy with her for a weekend and she took such good care of her. She took her for walks and let her play outside with her super sweet dog Deesah and even continued working on her potty training! She sent regular updates and videos that warmed our heart. Im glad our puppy had such a good time and made a new friend! Will definitely work with Jenny again!!!”
“Cindi did a great job of keeping Bella...Bella's routine includes a morning walk, and Cindi included that for her. Cindi also sent updates with photos and videos to let us know how Bella was adjusting to her care... Cindi also allowed Bella to sleep with her, because Bella is clean and very small, and we allow that at our home. Cindi is very caring and friendly, and she provides a loving environment for your pup in her home. I feel that Cindi will make every effort to accommodate any reasonable request related to making your pup comfortable in her home. Cindi has a beautiful home, which includes a large fenced back yard with lush green grass for your pup to enjoy. My recommendation is that Cindi's house is a great choice for your pup.”
“Mrs Kamaleswari V dog sit Mr Beethovan for me within a few days notification. Plus, she did a meet and greet prior to the actual date scheduled. I really appreciate her accepting the offer with a short notice. She welcomed him with open arms and he loved every minute of it. Beethovan is very clingy so glad she understands and accepted the challenge. He really enjoyed the love and will reschedule soon. She will provide pictures as well! Thanks Again”

This was my first time leaving our puppy, Jiji, and Keyuana made it so much easier. Knowing she and her husband Al were caring for her gave me real peace of mind. They're so sweet and attentive! Keyuana sent thoughtful updates so I always knew how Jiji was doing. When my flight was delayed, they were incredibly gracious and flexible about the later pickup. Jiji came home happy and well loved. We'll definitely be booking with them again!
Breanna was great with my puppy! My older dog had to have emergency eye surgery and I was headed out of town the next day. I thought it would be too much on my mother to care for both of my fur babies, so I reached out to Breanna. She was able to meet me on short notice before booking. Very communicative and kept me updated on my pup’s activities. I would definitely recommend.
Can’t be more grateful to Booke for the services offered. She always went above and beyond proving necessities for my Pet’s stay. Buddy felt so loved that he started missing Brooke. Must say Buddy has found a second home and will certainly be my go to for future. Thanks Brooke for all you did!
**Rachel and her family took amazing care of our puppy and treated her like she was part of their family. They even took the time to work with her on leash walking, which we really appreciated. We received updates throughout her stay, and it gave us great peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. Thank you again for everything! We would 100% book with Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.**
Kerry and Michael were incredibly kind and took wonderful care of Galleta. She came home happy and relaxed, and they constantly shared photos and updates, which gave us a lot of tranquility while we were away. Thank you both for being such excellent hosts , we truly appreciate it.
Sagun was great and Max had a great time during his stay. This was my first time leaving Max and Sagun made it so much easier. She kept me well informed and sent photos of how he was doing. This was a trial run for out family vacation at the end of the month and I feel so much better now leaving him since I know he will be in great hands and well cared for. Thanks Sagun!!
We used Jay & Caitlin again recently for a last minute family emergency, and they were amazing. They responded quickly and were incredibly accommodating on short notice, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during a stressful time. Just like before, communication was great, and they kept us updated with messages and photos. It’s such a relief knowing we have people we can trust when unexpected situations come up. We’re so grateful for their help and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, caring sitters!
We had an excellent experience with Tyra while she cared for our dog, Kona, for a two-week stay. Kona was incredibly well taken care of and clearly had a blast with Tyra and her family—it truly felt like a home away from home. Tyra’s communication was consistent and thoughtful throughout our time away, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also very flexible and attentive in adjusting to Kona’s schedule and needs, which we truly appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better boarding experience and will absolutely be booking with Tyra again. Highly recommend!
We had a great experience with Akin. We received constant updates throughout our time away, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked Khaleesi up, she was calm, happy, and clearly very well cared for. It was obvious she felt comfortable and content the entire stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend Akin to anyone looking for attentive, reliable care.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
