“Renee was absolutely perfect with my Monty, which is a commendable feat; he’s a grumpy old man who doesn’t get along with many! She sent the cutest pictures and updates throughout and was so accommodating when my trip didn’t go as planned. Monty also made a new friend in her dog Oreo. Overall, 5 star experience and I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Martine and Ronald are TOP NOTCH!!!! We couldn’t be happier with their loving care, communicativeness, and flexibility. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!! Sincerely, Brad, Danielle, and Pebbles”
“I cannot say enough good things about Debra. My dog is a nervous, previously abused, shy girl. Debra took the time to get to know my dog so that she would feel comfortable in her yard (which is FANTASTIC and your dog won't want to leave). She sent pictures, videos, and kept in contact with me each day of Abby's stay in her home. Abby loves her dogs, I'm so happy she made new friends! You can tell Debra is very knowledgable about dogs. She takes the time to introduce the dogs to each other slowly and makes sure no one is aggressive. You won't be disappointed with Debra!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Alexis! She was a joy to communicate with, always accommodating and providing regular updates on Oakley. We were so touched by her kindness and the genuine care she showed Oakley, making sure he was completely comfortable. Alexis is an exceptional pet sitter, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.”
“Luis watched my dog for a long weekend in July 2025. His responsiveness, attention to my dog's routine, and warm and welcoming environment were greatly appreciated. His dog, Elvis, is an absolute sweetie! Luis provided plenty of updates/photos and was very patient when my dog let his puppiness get the best of him. We would definitely use him again!”
“Jaxon always feels right at home and enjoys plenty of walks. I loved the picture updates and seeing how happy he was. Ms. Mary has such a warm spirit and a beautiful home. Every stay has been wonderful! As a military family relocating, we’ll truly miss her. God bless!”
“Argo enjoyed his time boarding with Brayden! His home provided a great environment for Argo, and Argo came back well cared for, and tired from playing with the other pup boarding there for the weekend. Communication was also very good. Thank you!”
“Dawnyea was fantastic with my older dog!! She sent frequent updates & it was clear to see my dog was comfortable around her, I would definitely recommend booking with her!”
“Was very happy with Rebecca. She's very easy to work with, flexible with drop off/pick-up, Tucker very happy when we picked him up. Also felt very comfortable with Tucker being with Rebecca as she had had a senior dog, and Tucker is a senior himself.”
“Evelyn was above and beyond! She sent great daily updates and followed all of our directions and more. Above all we had what you would call a travel nightmare on our way home which ultimately ended in a canceled flight. Evelyn took care of our Harper for an extra night without hesitation! Brings us so much peace of mind to know we have someone we can rely on for our dog care!”
“Excellent communication & very caring for pets! Definitely recommended!! And she is also a professional groomer. Talking about best of both worlds!! I will definitely book her again no questions..”
“We wholeheartedly recommend Jerry. From start to finish his communication was top notch. He was very attentive to our dog’s needs and were particularly grateful for his proactive and supportive approach when our dog presented some behavioral challenges. Thank you, Jerry!”
“We were very pleased with the care that our Elvis received. We knew that he was in good hands. We enjoyed getting updates and pictures without even having to ask. It was obvious that Elvis was very happy and enjoying his time with Grace. He enjoyed all of the walks and snuggles. We highly recommend Grace and look forward to booking with her in the future.”
“Lauren and her family were amazing! We felt at ease leaving out pups there and one was a puppy who had not been away from us yet. We will definitely use Lauren again when we need to travel. Thank you!!!”
“Our shy little dog makes up slowly to new people. He did fine with Teresa and her son. Indeed, within the first few hours of leaving him, she sent us a picture of our dog sitting on her son's lap. He had a great time at Theresa's”
“Elayne, Is a great! She loves dogs and is gentle with them. My dog, is afraid of thunder and rain. Elayne took time to soothe her and let us know that she was not doing well. She is the best.”
“Scott and Heather did a great job taking care of paisley over the while we were out of town for a weekend! We really appreciated the pictures, videos and updates! We will definitely hope to bring Paisley to them again in the future.”
“Kyle was great! Dexter and his dog Benny got along great and I loved to see them play together through the pictures and videos I received of them!! Would definitely recommend!”
“Marley had a wonderful time with Eliza this oast weekend. She took her hiking and on long wallks. She was great wirh communications and sending photos. I will definitely have her watch Marley again!”
“Our dog had a great experience with Jessica and Shayne! We got awesome updates while we were away and we could tell Finn was well taken care of and loved. He loved playing with their kids and in the fenced backyard! Would highly recommend.”
North dog parents share their Rover experiences
Grace was the best petsitter we could ever hope for! We've been anxious about leaving our older fella with someone else, he is a bit needy and set in his ways, but he was given so much love and attention by Grace that I don't think he gave us a second thought after we left! She sent us detailed updates and great photos every day so we didn't have to worry about how he was adjusting. Her home is perfect for a senior dog with mobility and separation issues. He was able to hang out with Grace and check out her yard without having to climb steps which is a BIG plus. He came home happy and healthy, and we definitely plan to use her again for our next trip.
Hands down, Meghan is the BEST sitter I’ve ever done service with. Communicative, and such a sweet person. When I tell you life saver, she literally saved my butt AND was very accommodating with my last minute request. She absolutely took great care of my dog buddi while I was gone for several days and always kept me updated with daily photos and how much fun he was having. She has become my new ATF hands down. If you need a great sitter, Meghan is your go to.
We had a wonderful experience with Matthew and Nicole! They were very communicative, kind and clearly enjoy caring for dogs. They sent lots of pictures which was great to see how much exercise and great care our dog Daisy received. We will definitely book with Matthew and Nicole again!
I cannot recommend Marissa highly enough! She went above and beyond to care for my dog, Reagan, showing a level of attentiveness and compassion that truly sets her apart. What impressed me most was her thoughtful approach to my dog’s unique needs, keeping her separated from the other pets in her home, creating a calm and safe environment which made all the difference in my pet’s stay. She also provided multiple long walks each day, ensuring plenty of exercise and stimulation. It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet like their own, but that’s exactly what Marissa did. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. If you’re looking for someone who combines professionalism with genuine love for animals, look no further. Marissa is a gem!
Emily is an amazing person and sitter. My dog was shown so much love and care from the walks to the treats and toys. I have never felt more at ease with a sitter before. Lay lay was in great hands and neither of us had to worry about a thing. I definitely will be booking again soon.
I can't say enough great things about Sylvia! From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. She took amazing care of Teddy, keeping me updated with photos, videos, and sweet little notes about their time together. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my pup was in such loving and capable hands. Teddy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to have someone so trustworthy and attentive. I highly recommend Sylvia to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and professional pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!
Amanda was a wonderful sitter! She sent so many updates, pictures, and videos which was great and kept our anxiety at bay while away on vacation. She communicated well, was extremely welcoming, and has a sweet playful pup of her own that our dog loved! We would book with Amanda again in a heartbeat. Our dog was very well taken care of in her home!
Jennifer took care of my boy for 4 nights while I was away at a funeral. Needless to say my mind was otherwise occupied. Jennifer didn't overwhelm me with info or questions, and took care of my boy flawlessly. It seemed she is able to adapt and accommodate whatever dog care needs you may have and whatever level of daily interaction you request. I will definitely board with Jennifer again - and she's 15 minutes from the airport for easy pick up/drop off if you're flying. And really, I'd take my dog with me if I weren't flying 😆
