“Our pup had the best time! Communication was great - we received photos and update daily. It was fun to see how much fun our dog was having while we were gone. He came home happy and tired from all the playing. We will definitely be using Martine and Ronald again next time when we need care. I couldn't have asked for a better, more caring home for our dog while we were gone.”

“Evelyn was so great to work with. She was so so flexible with my changing schedule and worked to accommodate my changes. She also was great with my dog, would definitely recommend and use again!”


“My family and I were preparing to head out of town for my birthday when we realized, in the middle of all the planning, that we had forgotten to schedule a sitter for Oakley. Like any dog mom would, I immediately went to Rover and was pleasantly surprised to see several sitters available. I reached out to a few profiles, and Rebecca D. responded right away, which immediately gave me peace of mind. Rebecca was incredibly kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. We quickly coordinated a plan for dropping Oakley off, and the process was seamless. When we arrived, Rebecca was already outside waiting for us and gave clear instructions on where to park. She even invited us inside, which we politely declined, but I thought it was such a thoughtful gesture. Prior to our arrival, she also shared information about her dog’s temperament, which I really appreciated. Throughout the weekend, Rebecca kept us updated with photos and videos of Oakley, which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. When we picked him up, he was excited to see us, but it was also obvious that he had a wonderful time with her. Oakley came home happy, and we are so thankful for the care Rebecca provided. I would absolutely recommend booking with her!”

“Amanda was great with Albert! He seemed really comfortable and secure. He’s a shy guy so I was happy to see that he opened up so quickly. I would love to book with them again.”

“Scott did an excellent job of helping us feel secure leaving our little maltipoo at his home for four days. She has never been left before and is a little older. We weren’t sure how she would react to larger dogs being around. Scott called to learn about our dog and arranged a meet and greet with his dog prior to Darla’s stay so we could feel comfortable. He supplied lots of pictures of our pup enjoying time with his family while we were away and was always just a text away if we had any questions. I would feel comfortable leaving Darla with Scott and family in the future. She was well cared for. ❤️”

“Great experience! Andrew accepted my last minute request and took excellent care of Kali. Communication was smooth, and my Kali was well taken care of. I would definitely book again.”

“Bailey was just amazing. This was the first time my 11 year old chihuahua has been away from home without me, but the moment I met Bailey I was immediately at ease. She showed kindness, love, and patience towards my dog from the start. She showed me around her yard, and listened attentively as I explained my dog's habits and routines. She sent a text and photos of how my dog was doing during his stay with her. When I went to pick him up, he showed no signs of stress - he was calm and happy upon my arrival. Thank you, Bailey! I would book with you again in a heartbeat.”

“10 Gold stars!!⭐️ I am recommending Renee to all looking for a fabulous pet sitter!! She treated my cat like her own! Sent wonderul videos and pictures! And her adult children are precious too! If they’re at home, your pets will get even more attention! I’m going to be rescheduling for sure!!”


“Suki had a great time at Stefan and Cara’s. She’s a pretty sizable 8 month old boxer puppy, and they handled her very well. It was great to receive the updates and pictures while we were on our trip, and we knew she was in good hands. We will definitely be in contact in the future! Thank you, Stefan and Cara!”

“Cris and Katty have been lifesavers. Mia had a fantastic time at their home and they took great care of her. We have had several travel issues and canceled flights due the storm. They’ve been super accommodating and helpful and offered to keep longer than expected.”

“Summer was so great! She kept Atlas and Kira. They were treated like a king and queen. It was the perfect little doggy vacation for them while we enjoyed our vacation! Highly recommend booking with her!”

“Luis was wonderful. He communicated every step of the way. He was kind, knowledgeable and accommodating. I made a mistake and he was more than gracious about it. This was my first experience with Rover and I was extremely nervous. However, I will definitely be looking to work with him again.”


“Teresa opened her home to my little one on short notice. My fur baby seems to be in great spirits. I would recommend Teresa for anyone including myself for future boarding.”

“Melissa was wonderful! So communicative and took great care of my little guy. I’ve never used Rover and was a little nervous how he’d do with a new person, but she sent me tons of update photos and I could tell he was getting tons of love and having a blast. I would recommend her & use her again myself in a heartbeat! Thank you!”

“Pawley gets excited as soon as we turn down Debra's street. He loves playing in her shaded back yard and I think is a little depressed when he comes home!! Would highly recommend Debra as a pet sitter!”

Susan was amazing. We had a last-minute cancellation and were so grateful that she responded so quickly and was able to help us out. She took wonderful care of our dogs and made the whole experience completely stress-free. She kept us updated, was very kind and responsive, and treated our pups like her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Elizabeth took the best care of our dog, Millie! We got frequent updates through her stay and could tell that she was getting a lot of love, attention and having the best time while we were gone. We felt very comfortable with Millie under Elizabeth’s watch! 1000/10 rating!

Matt watched my dogs Walter & Charlie while I was away on a work trip. I don’t travel very often so the dogs aren’t used to being away from me. They were both super stressed. Matt kept me informed and also medicated my dogs based on instructions provided to help with their anxiety & stress. They both had a great time with Pinot - Matt’s dog. It was such a relief knowing my dogs were in good hands. Will definitely book again.

Kim was great watching our dog Bella! We had a meet and greet beforehand to make sure our dogs would get along. She was so easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Drop off and pick up were super flexible, especially with a flight delay. She sent pictures and updates throughout the trip. We are looking forward to using her again!

We’re so grateful that we found Tony! He was very patient and took the time to make our pups feel comfortable. They were right at home. They got lots of walks and attention and we got some of the cutest pictures from their mini adventures. Tony also gave us some helpful training tips. We’ll definitely be booking again in the future.
