“Randy was great with the doggies! He has a nice big back yard that they liked running around in, or just laying in the sun on the patio close to the open door. But he went above and beyond by also taking them for daily walks, which they really enjoy. I would definitely recommend him and use his services again in the future. Thanks Randy!”
“Stacy is a true diamond! I needed a place where I’d feel completely safe leaving my beloved Louis while I was out of town on business, and Stacy exceeded every expectation. After reading the hundreds of glowing reviews, I thought, here’s my person! — and I was absolutely right. Stacy was incredibly responsive, no matter the time of day or night. I received thoughtful, professional-quality photos of Louis every evening — not just quick snaps, but stunning portraits that captured his personality and joy. It was such a kind and unexpected gesture that made being away from him so much easier. Louis was clearly loved and well cared for, and I could tell he was having a great time. Stacy has a calm, confident presence that puts both pets and their people at ease. I truly cannot say enough good things. Just read the other reviews — they’re 100% accurate. Stacy wins Best Rover Sitter hands down (with the added bonus of an incredible talent for pet photography). Thank you, Stacy, for taking such amazing care of Louis. I know he’ll be excited to stay with you again!”
“Aja is a superb sitter. Her attention to Paco shown through pictures and videos was a great comfort. I couldn’t have made a better selection than Aja for Paco’s care. I’m very thankful and satisfied and Aja is definitely my “go to sitter” now!”
“Ivette was great! She was able to take my last-minute booking and seemed genuinely excited to spend time with my dog. I received a lot of updates and pictures. Pup came home happy and calm. Will rebook!”
“Liz was able to watch our kitty on short notice for the holidays. Love how well she kept us updated and sent lots of picture to give us peace of mind our fur baby was in good hands. Highly recommend Liz!!”
“I cannot recommend Elizabeth enough! While visiting New Orleans, I had to fly to Los Angeles for 4 days and needed a trustworthy dog sitter. Elizabeth’s reviews stood out, and after our meet and greet, I knew I had found the right person. She asked thoughtful questions and was so attentive to my pup’s needs, ensuring his best interests were top of mind. Her communication while I was away was excellent—she sent frequent video and photo updates, which put me completely at ease. I wish I lived in the area because I would definitely be a repeat client. Highly recommend!”
“Julia was a wonderful sitter for our two crazy dogs! She was a great communicator and clearly took really good care of Clementine and Huck, even with their specific mealtime needs! Her pups seem so sweet and her home is an overall really great environment for pups. Thank you, Julia!!”
“Mike was so awesome!! I had a last minute booking and he was very accommodating with drop off and pickup times! He sent pictures and videos throughout my pups stay to ensure me he was fine and having fun! Highly recommend!”
“Ben is a really nice guy and took great care of Darby. She was sulking because she didn’t get to go on the trip but Ben talked her out of it. He has a way with her, including treats. Thanks Ben - We will call on you next time we travel.”
“Mary was amazing!! She was so easy to contact and she sent pictures and updates about my dog Max that stayed with her. He seemed to have a great time and he got along with her dog as well. Will definitely contact her again! 😊”
“Flynn had a great stay with Regina! He is special needs and requires someone to give him medication 4 times daily. She was able to adjust her schedule to make sure she could accommodate this. She wanted to do a meet and greet before which I really appreciated. She always responded right away to any messages I sent, and she kept in touch daily sending pictures of Flynn! He was the only dog she had at the time which was perfect. I would love to be able to have Flynn stay with her again and would absolutely recommend her care to anyone with a special needs dog! Thank you, Regina!”
“Jon was absolutely amazing with our pups.. he would send photos on a daily in addition to providing our old man his meds. We understand that our younger pup has some issues getting along with others but he was able to keep the peace with all the pups and that's a bit of a feat because she can be ALOT. Our littles were happy to come home but looked just as they did when we left them, plump and happy! We will absolutely be using Jon again for our next vacation!!”
“Elena has watched our Italian Greyhound several times in her home, most recently for 6 weeks while we were abroad. She took fantastic care of our dog, and we felt completely confident that our sweet girl was in responsible, caring hands. Elena sent us pictures and updates regularly, and in general she is extremely accessible and responsive. She is now our go to sitter whenever we leave town, and it's so comforting to know that she'll take excellent care of our dog while we're gone. Elena is terrific - highly recommend!”
“I felt so safe leaving my baby with Mrs. D! She is a true animal whisperer. I know that my pup got the same love that she gives her own animals and I found that so comforting. My Santiago got plenty of exercise and I got pictures and videos sent to me while I was working. I will definitely leave my baby with her again in the future. Thank you again 🥰”
“Michael was great with Kozmo! He watched him for the day while my husband and I explored New Orleans as part of our honeymoon. Michael seems like a genuine dog lover and was highly complimentary of our little rascal. We felt comfortable and confident leaving him and he seemed happy and well cared for on our return. Thank you, Michael! We really appreciated your care.”
“Katherine and Ethan took wonderful care of our large lab George while we were away for almost a week. Their two dogs kept George busy and provided plenty of company. We look forward to leaving our large fur baby with them in the future!”
“Iryna was incredibly sweet and nurturing to our cats, Ziggy & Roux! Her communication with me throughout their stay with her was impeccable. We hope to work with Iryna again!”
“Lynn was great. She watched our two dogs (Greyhound and Cheweenie) over the 4th of July weekend. They tend to get nervous, but she made them feel comfortable. They were two happy campers when we picked them up.”
“Cora loved Shelby's home. Shelby sent photos and videos and little messages throughout our trip, which really eased our worries about leaving Cora for the first time. Cora was happy and energetic when I picked her up and Shelby's mother expressed her love our pup. Thank you for caring for our girl!”
“Cheryl is the best! Provides lots of love and fun for the pups as well as updates for us while we are away missing our pup. Bella loves going to Cheryl's to see the pack. ”

Aja was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Milo, over the Fourth of July holiday! She was kind, attentive, and genuinely cared for him while we were away. She kept in great communication the entire time and sent plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from the updates that Milo was happy, well-cared for, and comfortable in her care. I would highly recommend Aja to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter. We’re so grateful we found her on Rover!
Julie was great with Cooper, provided a small crate for him to have his own little space & kept me informed about how he was doing. Highly recommend her!
Repeat stay with Jon! He takes great care of my dog and sends great videos and pics! My dog loves being there
Lynn was great. She watched our two dogs (Greyhound and Cheweenie) over the 4th of July weekend. They tend to get nervous, but she made them feel comfortable. They were two happy campers when we picked them up.
Skylar was great with communication and very flexible on pick up and drop off times. She was very welcoming to our pup and provided a great space for him to run and play.
Great communication and a perfect setting for your small dog to feel at home. Would definitely rebook. Highly recommend!
Anna was amazing! She took great care of my girl and kept me updated the whole time. I really appreciated all the pictures and her excellent communication it gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend!
Madeline was amazing with our two dogs. They like a LOT of attention and it was great to see how much she enjoyed them and genuinely cared for them. Could not recommend her more highly!
Our dog Mona Lisa had a great stay with Natalie! This was our first time using Rover and it was super. Natalie came to do a meet and greet before boarding at her house. She made sure she knew all Mona’s schedules and routines. We got daily updates and photos and I think the dog had as much of a vacation as we did! Highly recommend Natalie and we will seek out her services again the next time we need boarding for Mona Lisa.
Violeta is such a wonderful sitter and human being. We are repeat customers and we feel very comfortable leaving our little dog in her care. She updates with amazing pictures, too! Thank you to Violeta for everything. I highly recommend her, 5+++++ Stars.
This is the 2nd time leaving Butternut with Jessica and Poppy. He loves them so much he cried when they left and kept sitting and waiting for them to come back
Jenna did an excellent job boarding our dog. She responded promptly and in detail, sent photos during the boarding time and provided good care. Highly recommended!
Liz cared for my senior, ailing fur angel just the way I hoped she would be treated! Not only is my Daisy girl blind & elderly, but she’s also recently challenged with what is likely vestibular disease and therefore requires not only extra care and attention but also must be administered medications. Liz seemed to handle all of this with ease despite other animals presence during the boarding at Liz’s home. She was sure to separate Daisy from the other animals when she felt the need to do so and she also didn’t mind giving her the extra pets and snuggles she so needs to be kept comfortable and at ease. Her daily updates with photos kept ME at ease while I was away working. I have already joked that Liz can’t get rid of us now LOL & will be rebooking with her on a regular basis.
Bayleigh was amazing with my two labs! She cared for them for 9 days and sent multiple photos and videos. My dogs were always happy and playing. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my pups while on vacation. Definitely recommend!
I have been using Cheryl for 9 years now. We changed it up this year and did a sitting in my home. I was completely at ease having Cheryl here and it was an amazing experience as usual. We never worry with Cheryl, whether the pups stay with her or she is here. I can’t recommend her enough!
Camille and George were fantastic! They gave Ami such a lovely vacation while I was in town. Camille sent tons of photos and let Ami even sleep in bed with them. Ami loved hanging out with their baby too.
Amber and her family were awesome with my Dog Sammy. From the communication to the service was excellent. I will have Sammy return sometime.
We couldn’t have been more happy with Valentina watching our French bulldog Winston. She made sure that we felt comfortable with her watching him and she did not need any special assistance or instructions. She knew exactly how to take care of our dog. I would highly highly recommend using her for your doggy daycare needs. She was also super flexible with times for pick up and drop off which made things super convenient.
