“Nina was great. Super responsive and took care of my fur baby like she was her own. Always great when you can leave your furry friends worry free!”
“Kelly is amazing! She is very kind and attentive. I feel really good about boarding my dog with her, as she is so knowledgeable and caring. Big thanks to Kelly!”
“Kerry took excellent care of our shy rescue pup, Samson. She was very communicative and provided lots of photos. Samson will be hanging out with Kerry again soon!”
“Katie was absolutely amazing with my boy Abe! She kept me constantly updated with photos, videos, and hilarious little anecdotes throughout the day, which made being away so much easier. It was clear she treated my dog like one of her own—taking him on walks, to the dog park, and giving him plenty of playtime with other dogs. I really appreciated how trustworthy and responsible she was! I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you again, Katie!”
“Lauren took such great care of Clover. She was very communicative & sent lots of updates. I was very far away & appreciated it. Lauren also picked up & dropped Clover off which was a huge relief! Thank you so much.”
“Simon did a great job of communicating and sending pics on Ferris’ first stay at his place. We’ve booked 2 more visits to Simon’s place and looking forward to many more.”
“My very first time utilizing Rover service providers. I’m so thrilled and pleased with the care that Christine provided. Our initial meet & great definitely eased my anxiety and Marlee took to her right away. Christine provided updates and photos during Marlee’s stay. I could see from the pics that Marlee was enjoying her time and blended well with the other dogs present. Definitely plan to board w/ Christine again. Thanks for taking good care of my fur baby and easing her separation anxiety.”
“Luciana is fantastic! We've been a few times now, and my pup is always sad to leave her at pickup, which is a good sign. He is a picky eater with a food allergy and she always patiently ensures he eats well while there. So glad to have found her here!”
“Catherine and Nikhit were fantastic. They took excellent care of my pup, who was spoiled with walks and cuddles and didn't want to leave. I will be utilizing them again.”
“Vanessa rocks! It was my first time boarding Marley with her and everything was amazing. I could tell. When I went to pick Marley up he didn’t seem to want to get in the car with me and would rather stay with Vanessa for more play time! That’s a great sign. I will definitely use Vanessa again for my next work trip.”
“Kim and her daughter Julia are so loving and most wonderful! Our pup had the time of his life at their place, daily long walks and all. We love the daily updates from Kim with photos and short videos. Kim is simply the best. Punctual, reliable, knowledgeable and full of love for doggies.”
“First time using Rover. Shane was magnificent and my dog is so upbeat. Definitely will use him again. He sent constant updates and pictures of how my dog was going throughout the stay.”
“Juliana and her husband were great both times they took care of Bella and were quick to respond whenever I reached out. I will definitely have Bella stay with them many more times in the future.”
“Josie had a great time with Gabriela. This was her first time being boarded and the pictures and video I received reassured me that Josie was in good hands.”
“Duke had a great time playing and exploring with Chulpan and their family. I was provided with updates and shown great care. Duke’s meals and walk schedule was transparent and excellent. Thanks so much, hope to see you again soon!”
“I needed someone to keep Knox at the last minute and she really came through and helped me a lot. Knox loved her and seemed to have such a good time in our old home area in the city. Thank you again so much”
“I needed 5 hours of dog care for my newly rescued senior Pomeranian and I’m so grateful to have found Donna. Donna provided a calm and caring environment for my dog to feel comfortable and relaxed, and they took a 20 minute walk together. Thank you so much, Donna!”
“Jennifer does a great job taking care of my dog! My dog is tiny and Jennifer and Louie are both super gentle. She's also always really responsive and flexible with pick up times.”
“I am so thankful to Alli and her family for taking such great care of my pup and highly recommend her. My dog got sick right before a work trip - Alli was extremely patient and understanding as I changed my travel plans at the last minute and was open to taking her, even knowing that she may need a return trip to the vet. My dog did absolutely fantastic in her care, Alli texted me regular updates and confirmed the sort of details that dog owners want to know when their dog is recovering from an upset stomach (that no one wants to see here.) Alli said she considers dogs part of the family and her care reflects that value 100%. Thank you, Alli!”
“Jodee and AJ were incredible. Razzo got amazing attention, walks and a great grass backyard. I got tons of updates and I could tell he was in great hands. Will absolutely book with them again.”

Thank you Dena for taking care of Ginger. I also thank you for keeping me updated with photos and videos.
Sarah took great care of our dog for almost 2 weeks. She showed a lot of patience with our young dog and communicated well, sending photos everyday. Coco got along with her dog Maizy well, and clearly enjoyed her stay.
Alberto was a fantastic sitter! Throughout our dogs stay, he shared photos and videos with us regularly, and took them on so many walks and adventures which we know they loved. His communication was great and you can tell he took great care of our dogs. We’d highly recommend him!
Barbara, Tanner, and of course Hank were excellent hosts for our girl! Truly feels like Douille got her own vacation while we were away adventuring with this crew. They sent numerous photos throughout the day and kept us updated consistently. Will definitely be keeping them in mind for future needs and definitely recommend for anyone looking!
Juliana was very communicative and super accommodating with my dog, Heath! Would definitely recommend!
Abigail is the very best! Initially she offered to do a meet & greet so my toy poodle, Dolly, could meet her (very sweet and friendly) pup Boba. I appreciated that she wanted to ensure both dogs got along prior to booking. From the moment I dropped my dog off for her stay, Abigail was amazing in terms of communication. She sent detailed accounts of all their adventures over the weekend and she took plenty of (really cute!) photos. They went on many long walks & daytime excursions, which I SO appreciated! She treated Dolly just like her own little one. She was flexible and caring, attentive and reassuring that all was well. I trusted her completely and would highly recommend!
Feel very fortunate to have met Becky. Our pup had a great stay at her house while the rest of our family was away at various summer camps. At drop-off, Juno went straight in and clearly felt comfortable. Becky was really quick to respond to my initial request, sent plenty of pics during the stay, and was also super accommodating with a slightly late pick up. We'll definitely be in touch for future stays.
Isabella was amazing! She was very responsive and sent great pictures while I was gone. I will definitely use her again!!!
Mike was great with my high energy girls! He made sure they got plenty of exercise and snuggles even with all the rain. He provided great updates and gave them all the love I do. He's great with updates and makes sure they use their brains in addition to exercise.
Erica and Robbie were terrific sitters! We started off with a meet and greet for my two dogs and her Chi, where she asked lots of great care questions. Communication was excellent! We received many photos and videos throughout the dogs' stay. It was clear she was taking them out often for walks and play. 10/10!!!
Tavi had another great stay with Shannon and Ram…it’s her second home and she is always well taken care of.
Samson stayed with Kerry for an extended period during our wedding and honeymoon, and Kerry took wonderful care of him as usual. Our pup is very easily scared, and she is very patient and comforting with him. I’d recommend her to anyone!
Helen was AMAZING. I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. She was very responsive and loved my baby like her own!
Judy was great and took Eio last minute and gave him excellent care! He came back happy and healthy and seemed to have a great time playing in her spacious yard and hanging out with her sweet pup Pepsi!
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Heather was incredible with our dog—attentive, caring, and clearly experienced. We got regular updates with photos, and it was obvious our dog was happy and well-loved the entire time. We highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and amazing with animals!
Christina is great! My flight was delayed and she was flexible with plans and willing to drop Honey off at our house. Honey loves to snuggle her and go on walks with her!
Bhumika & Ravikumar were absolutely amazing! I received tons of pictures and updates. They truly treated my baby like their own! I would recommend them to anyone!!
Brenda and her mom took great care of our dog, sending updates, videos and photos while we were out of town. We felt confident that he was in great hands. They were also understanding and accommodating when we had flight troubles getting back into DC. We would definitely use them again.
