“Magda and Chris were amazing. So kind and caring with Mogi. Magda sent me regular check ins that showed how comfortable Mogi was with them. It was great knowing that Mogi was safe and happy during my weekend away.”

“Dana is so wonderful with our dog Maya! When we drop off Maya she’s already wagging her tail to see Dana! As pet parents, it just warms our hearts to see the bond Maya has with Dana!!!! Definitely would recommend Dana to anyone looking for a great pet sitter!!!”

“Jocelin and Christian did an exceptional job caring for our pups. Jocelin shared pictures daily and made extra effort to give them the exercise our high energy young ones need. I highly recommend Jocelin for boarding your dogs.”

“Whitney was so amazing with our dogs. This was our first time using Rover and she made the booking process smooth and simple. We were so comfortable leaving our girls with her. We got daily updates and photos of our dogs and the adventures they had the farm. We were at ease and able to enjoy our time away from home without any worries. I will be recommending her to our friends and we will be booking with her again.”

“Scott and Sarah take excellent care of our dog, who clearly loves and feels comfortable with them. It makes being away from our pup easier knowing she is safe and happy.”

“This was our first time with Jennifer, and it was the best experience! Her dog Charolette has now become my girls best friend. Jennifer was very responsive and sent tons of pictures. She made our trip wonderful because we knew our girls were well cared for!! I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!”

“I have to be very picky when choosing sitters as one pup has separation anxiety and will not stay with just anyone. I have had many issues with past sitters being dishonest and not following my guidance but I HIGHLY recommend Tanine!!! I have two very high energy pups (golden doodle and lab). She kept me updated, good and bad, and made sure to give my pup his meds with enough time for them to be effective prior to crating. She ensured to make them as comfortable as possible through the day and I truly appreciate her level of care. I specifically chose her due to the training background and I am so glad I followed through though there were not many reviews. I did not have to ask for pictures or updates throughout. She has small children that seem to love dogs so I know my pups received comfort as they love children. She is a gem! To have the patience and be willing to work with us through his anxiety is not something you find in all Rover sitters. Glad to have finally found a permanent option!”

“Katelyn was amazing. Very attentive. Reached out to us everyday with pictures and videos. Great communication throughout the whole visit. Our dogs loved her. Very easy to work with. We did an initial visit then she agreed to watch on the spot. April, her dog, is amazing as well. We will definitely go with her again!”

“I booked Cori very close to Christmas and I was so thankful that she had room for my pet. She is wonderful - made me & Cheesy feel right at home upon meeting her and she sent fun photos of my dog. I will definitely keep her in mind when I book my next trip. I can easily recommend her to anyone who is looking for a place to board their pet.”


“Cannot recommend Leslie enough! She took such amazing care of Cash. From the moment she met him at the meet and greet thru the stay I’ve never felt more comfortable trusting my pup with someone. Cash loved her spacious back yard, lounging around, and the long walks/runs. She even had a special treat for him since he was staying with her during Christmas. I had to say “Let’s go home” three times because he wasn’t ready to leave. So thankful for Leslie’s attentiveness, communication, and care!”

“Lakeshia was so loving and kind to our older dog. Winter wasn't feeling well with an upset tummy, Lakeshia went above and beyond with making her vet approved food and kept us posted on her progress regularly while we headed home from out of state. I truly appreciated all of her kindness.”

“Jessica truly went above and beyond while taking care of our dog Frank! She provided many updates and pictures and we knew he was in great care! She is amazing with dogs and would absolutely use her again!”

“Christine was SO AWESOME! She took great care of my dog, sent daily pictures, and he came home so happy. We will definitely be using her again for any pet sitting needs that we have!”

“Cynthia made sure my fairly anxious dog, Obi, was well cared for! This is the first time I’ve left him with someone he doesn’t know, so I was worried at first. But Cynthia kept me updated the whole time I was gone and her pictures and quick updates made me feel so much better about being away from Obi!”

“This was the best first experience using Rover! Meagan and her family was great! They cared very well for Rocko and made him feel at home. I'll definitely book Meagan again on my next adventure!”

“Aly dog sat our Charlie boy for a few night and was awesome! Super responsive; sent updates and daily photos of Charlie. Much better experience for our guy vs. boarding at a kennel/boarder. Will absolutely rebook with Aly in the future!”

“Our 2 dogs were well taken of and tuckered out after we picked them up. Nathan was very communicative and easygoing. We will definitely use Nathan again - we trust him with our pets!”
