“We've used Rover sitters many times, and Yick-hong is one of the best! He clearly loves dogs and was great with our four-year old beagle Ruthie. He took her for a variety of walks, gave her doggie puzzles to solve, and snuggled with her on the couch. He sent us photos and videos two or three times a day. Will definitely call on him again to take care of our pooch.”
“Alix was amazing! She looked after Loki and took care of his special needs, she was friendly and caring. Will definitely seek her again when we need dog sitting support again.”
“Holly was wonderful! Milo had a great stay with Holly and her family, and loved the company of her adorable doodle River. She sent daily photos and was very easy to communicate with. I felt at ease knowing that Milo was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”
“Anna is absolutely our dream sitter for our very playful and energetic border collie, Atlas. She and her husband gave Atlas so much love and attention everyday. Anna voluntarily sent us many lovely photos and videos of our pup as well as detailed updates daily. They loved Atlas as if she was their own, and we could tell how happy Atlas was staying with them. We felt at ease every day knowing that Atlas was under the care of such a wonderful and caring couple. We believe Atlas was on her own vacation! Thank you again. Atlas cannot wait to see them again. 😄”

“What a wonderful experience I had on vacation knowing my Tuna was safe with a kind and loving person! I received daily photo messages, sometimes two. Always kept informed and in the loop with what his day to day was looking like, from watching movies to playing with this really gross toy he is obsessed with. We will definitely be back for future trips. Thanks Barbara!”

“We feel so lucky to have found Xiaoting & Xiao to take care of our dog, Toto, while we were away for 8 days. Honestly, they’re the best sitters we’ve ever had. Toto has had some trouble with overeating and overweight, but Xiaoting & Xiao went above and beyond, not just looking after him, but really helping him thrive. They sent us daily photo and video updates, and even shared thoughtful tips on feeding and exercise. Toto got regular walks, healthy meals, and so much love and attention. He came back healthier, happier, and more energetic than ever. Their home is super clean, well-organized, and totally dog-friendly, which made us feel at ease right away. It’s clear they truly care and treat the dogs like part of their family. We’ve worked with a few sitters before, but Xiaoting & Xiao were hands-down the best. We’ll definitely be booking with them again. Thank you both so much for taking such wonderful care of our Toto!”

Shuai and his team are amazing! We left our girl with him over the weekend and couldn’t be more pleased. He kept us in the moment with photos and updates. Our dog who is normally shy took to the team quickly and I would trust them with our dog again! Highly recommend
Our 1.5 year old Cavapoo recently stayed with Sean and his two sweet dogs, and she had a wonderful time. She got a lot of play time and walks everyday. She was never alone and got to meet other dogs. Sean made sure she felt at home. He especially made sure she could eat at her own pace. He also sent us numerous pictures and videos. We will definitely reach out to him again the next time we are away!
Kevin was the most thorough Rover sitter I’ve worked with! Him and his partner made sure my doggy felt comfy by meeting their dog first. I loved that they knew who and where my vet was and obtained permission to bring her in case of an emergency. My Shiba Inu was very sweet and calm when I picked her up which says a lot. I’ll highly recommend for any dog sitter!
Yick-hong is truly a star sitter! We have an anxious dog who has a lot of needs and takes medications. Our dog boarded with him and Yick-hong made sure to communicate every step of the way. He sent lovely photos of our dog and provided us with updates on his status. He made our first time using Rover a wonderful experience. We cannot thank him enough. He truly deserves all of his high praises with the care he provided to our dog!
It was super easy to coordinate with Robert and Jen. First off, they asked good questions about Booster to ensure they were a good fit, which I really appreciate. They were also very communicative and sent lots of pics during his stay 🩷 He’s a senior pup on a couple meds so it’s hard not to worry about him but I’m thankful for their level of care and patience.
Xiaoting and Xiao were responsive and very caring with my dog. They sent numerous updates and photos while they watched him, and he clearly had a great time with them. I would gladly use their services again.
Channah is absolutely amazing! My dog, Daisy, is really nervous in new situations & Channah made her feel so comfortable & cared for & safe and secure and loved. If Channah wanted to watch her again in the future, I’d go back to Channah in a heartbeat! : )
Kim was amazing at watching our pup! From the moment we met she asked all the right questions. It was obvious she has experience. Kim kept us updated with photos and message the whole time. I can tell my dog was genuinely happy with her. My family and I are very happy with Kim. She has become our go-to dog sitter.
Santina took great care of Wesley! They went on long walks and she welcomed him into her home. He was immediately comfortable with Santina and her household and I knew when I dropped him off he would be well taken care of
Natasha was amazing! She was professional, kind, flexible, and made my dog Sammy feel right at home. I received a quick update right after drop off and I was immediately put at ease seeing my dog so relaxed and comfortable there. Frequent updates and photos were also a bonus to see how Sammy was enjoying his stay. Would definitely book again, thank you Natasha!
Kayla was very friendly. She was also flexible when we had to extend our pick-up time. I would definitely use her again.
Harley was so happy with Pam and family. They took care of him like he was their own, and we will definitely be back!
Sam did an awesome job watching our Samoyed Walker for the weekend, he was available last minute and was super communicative and helpful! Definitely will use again.
Sara is excellent? Dependable kind and warm. She sent us pictures of our puppy. It was much appreciated!
Sue was a great sitter for my dog Sunny! she was super flexible and was able to take care of him both in my home and hers. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
Thank you Susan for taking care of our precious Penny! You were so incredibly thoughtful and loving to our baby girl.
Annie was an amazing dog sitter! She sent us tons of photos throughout the stay, showed so much love and care for our dog, and was incredibly flexible with the dates, especially helpful as our plans shifted due to the baby’s arrival. We’ll definitely reach out to her again for future stays!
Jackie was amazing. She took great care of my pups. She sent updates everyday and made sure my doggies were well fed and one took his medications everyday. I would have Jackie watch my pups again in a heartbeat. Thanks again Jackie!
