“Alycia always provide great care for our 11 year old pug/chihaua mix. Cady had a great time hanging with her dog and the guest dog. She also provided regular update photos--always a comfort to see your dog at rest or play!”
“Donna is the best! Scrabble had a fantastic time with her and her pup. We felt so comfortable leaving Scrabble with Donna, and truly enjoyed our time away because of that. She’s great with communication and photos. Highly recommend!!”
“Ryan was a fantastic sitter for our Bailee. We felt very comfortable with leaving her with him and his family. I loved how he said “he was honored to keep her”. We would definitely use him again.”
“They were amazing with our princess. Nani is very selective with the people she warms up to, but she fit right in for a midweek slumber party! Would recommend and can’t wait to book again!”
“I have never left my dogs with anyone besides family while traveling, this was a first and Lisa, John and their kids were great. They provided easy communications as well I received photos of them loving my dog as their own throughout my time traveling. I am very happy with the quality of care Gunner received and plan on booking with them again in the future!”
“I boarded my sweet 9mo Cavalier puppy with Tricia for a weekend, and it was obvious she had the best time! Daisie looked so happy in each picture Tricia sent and was the sleepiest I’ve ever seen when I picked her up. She had a blast! It was Daisie’s first boarding so I was nervous how she would do, but it all went great. And I appreciated how accommodating Tricia was to my somewhat last minute booking and changing meet/pickup times. It gave me such peace of mind on my trip to know Daisie was being so well cared for. Will be booking again!”
“Andrea was absolutely amazing with our dog Tucker. I felt like he was in the best hands possible for our vacation! Would 100% recommend her to anyone who wants their dog to be loved like you love your dog!”
“Dion took great care of my dog! He had an excellent backyard for her to play in and I know she had lots of fun. Dion was also great at communicating quickly and efficiently, and was flexible when my travel plans changed last minute.”
“Ainura was absolutely amazing! I had to find a sitter for my new puppy on very short notice and she responded super fast and accepted the job. It was my first time using the Rover app and I’m so grateful it worked out so well. She took incredible care of little Khaleesi and sent loads of photos showing her playing and having a great time for the week. I’m definitely reaching out to Ainura next time I need a sitter :)”
“Scotty was amazing with my dog Zeke while he watched him for a week. I got lots of pictures and he looked so happy. Zeke can be a little particular at times but he seemed to do great with Scotty. Will definitely use again.”
“Onyx had the best time with Taylor and Brian and their sweet dog Shiloh! He typically lives in an apartment so he was thrilled to have access to a fenced in yard. Taylor and Brian were very kind to accommodate a last-minute extra night’s stay after our travel plans home went awry. They were very sweet and understanding.”
“This was my Cherrys very first time staying with a sitter, so naturally, we were a bit anxious about how things would go. But from the very beginning, Ryan was incredibly patient, understanding, and flexible. He took the time to make sure both my dog and I felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. I’m so grateful for how smoothly everything went. Highly recommend—especially if you’re a first-time dog parent looking for someone you can really trust!”
“Ronald and his family could not have been better sitters for our 2 labs. They were so thoughtful and provided a loving home for our pups while we were away. I will definitely continue to book Ronald on future trips.”
“What a fabulous family! It made my travel so much less stressful knowing she was in such a safe and caring place. Thanks so much to Jennifer & Robert and their daughter and son... oh and Murphy too!”
“Kenny took wonderful care of our pup over the weekend. She was well taken care of and got tons of attention, and he followed her routines closely. They had so much fun together even in rainy weather.”
“Ashley and family took great care of our dog. I especially appreciated the daily pictures with updates. They took him into the family as if he was their own and realized quickly his personality. We would definitely recommend and will use again.”
About: I have watched dogs for years. I took care of my dog when I lived at home (sadly she passed). I am super affectionate so there is no worry that they will be neglected. I love to run/walk with dogs as it makes me very happy! I am a very trustworthy person: many of my friends call on me to watch their dogs when they need help. I am very reliable and extremely punctual. From January to May I have plenty of flexible availability that we can discuss. During the summer my availability changes slightly, but I will always make lots of time for you pets. I am loving to the dogs, but firm when I need them to listen. I have never had a problem with any dog, no matter how big or small!
“Sunny had a wonderful week with Jenny and her family and loved playing with their dog Bosco. He was so happy and comfortable when we picked him up! Great updates and communication.”
“Great guy (was able to fit me in at the last minute). Good space. In an area that’s easy to let dogs out and about. Also, he made my princess feel special and she made some friends too!”

Newtown dog parents share their Rover experiences
They did a wonderful job with our Tessie. Would of loved to seen more photos, but I was also very aware of the weather back home and you can only do so many, dog resting in a bed because it's raining or overly hot outside. They didnt describe anything that would of been out of the norm for our dog or outside typical dog behavior. I'm glad my dog didn't do something out of the norm that would have caused damage to there home. Like a family watching your child. You don't want to hear the child got out of control and destroy a priceless possession you can't replace. Very respectful family with loving and caring kids. Would easily recommend them for watch your pet.
Wynn and Lauren did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Ollie. He’s an anxious rescue and this was his first time with them and they provided him a safe and welcoming home. We appreciated the regular communication while he was in their care and it was so reassuring to see how well they understood his needs and gave him the space to warm up at his own pace. He was a happy dog when we picked him up after 10 days and that meant everything to us! We will definitely be using them again!
