“Amber was AMAZING ? We left our Marlie girl with Amber for week while we went out of state. I was a little nervous about being so far away but Amber put my mind at ease with multiple updates daily and lots of pics. They went on lots of long walks, played in the great big backyard and chased squirrels. I am so grateful to Amber for taking such good care of our girl. I would highly recommend Amber. Marlie is already excited for her next pup vacation at Amber’s house”


“Carol and Jessica have proven to be one of the most considerate and kind dog sitters my husband and I have ever had. They offered to watch Dean late into the night because our return flight continued to be delayed. They’re also great about sending photos of our dog throughout the day to ensure our dog, Dean, is doing well. They respond quickly to any messages we send, and Dean loves staying at their place. Carol and Jessica are our forever-Dayton-dog sitters!”
“Ashleigh and Bill are amazing! They treat our golden like one of their own! He even hogs their bed lol… We are so thankful for such awesome people to watch our guy when we travel!”

“Dogs had a great time, we loved getting pictures of them while we were away and had peace of mind with their fenced in yard. Grateful they took such good care of our dogs!”

“Pietro was absolutely amazing!! Maple is nervous around men but she was so comfortable with him. He sent plenty of pictures and videos and even kept her a few hours longer to help me out since I broke my leg. Would definitely recommend!!”

“Derik and Megan are wonderful. They took on a challenge or what I would call a challenge by caring for my little boogie baby. They treated him so well as if he was their own. They kept me updated with pictures and text. I wouldn't ask for a better dog sitter. They made us feel at ease with our baby knowing it was our first time ever boarding him. Thank you again!”

“I have a 12 yo German Shepard. He's an old man now. We were going away for New Years and our normal sitter wasn't available. I was apprehensive about leaving him with someone new. Karin was spectacular. She was attentive to his needs and careful about his 'age' related shortcomings. She has a pup of her own and a young son who loved my boy. Karin sent plenty of pics of him and was very communicative during his stay, asking questions to make sure behaviors were normal and making sure he'd tolerate the environment there! I don't know how many stays my old man has left in him, but Karin is definitely the person I'd want watching him when I leave!”

“Hatsuki is the sweetest and kindest sitter I’ve ever had! Gizmo was very happy, I could tell he was well loved and taken care of by all the amazing photos and updates she provided. I am extremely grateful for the genuine care and kindness! Thank you!”

“Kyri W took excellent care of our puppies. Even on short notice she accepted our puppies into her home gave us daily updates videos and pictures. That made us feel like they were in great hands. Her interactions with our puppies let me know that they trust her too.”

“Jaqueline was an absolute delight! She was so friendly, communicative, and sent plenty of pictures while my dog was with her. It was clear she took good care of him and I highly recommend her!”

“Was a last minute weekend stay for my dog and quickly felt comfortable with him staying there. She shared photos of dogs playing together and was quite responsive if ever messaged.”

“Tammy was wonderful! This is our first time leaving our dogs with anyone other than family! We had a meet and greet with Tammy prior to our trip! Mila and Sasha seemed happy and had friends to play with. Tammy was more than accommodating with our care requests and sent us pics and updates during our time away! Thanks again!”

“My dogs loved going to Rachel's house. They stayed for one night on a last minute booking. Rachel was very responsive to texts through the booking and stay, and even worked with us when we had car troubles and had to pick the dogs up later than expected. My dogs seemed very comfortable and happy there. I'd definitely use her again!”

“I really like how well Britany took care of Jasmine! She was able to watch her at the last minute so that I could take a trip to Rio and spend quality time with my daughter. She took pictures of her every day and sent them to me. She even gave her a bath when she got too muddy on one of her walks. I hope to be able to work with her again soon and I would definitely recommend her to everyone!”


“Nate and Whitney took exemplary care of Murphy while we were on vacation. This was our first time leaving Murphy with a sitter and they made sure we knew he was well taken care of. They sent pictures of him and kept us updated of how much food he was eating. 10/10 recommend.”

“We will definitely use Ryan again. He and his son were great with our dogs, Beefy and Otis. He was very attentive to them and kept in touch with us often. I felt that I could relax knowing that Ryan was watching our dogs.”

Oakwood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jacqueline was really good with Duke. Responded super fast and gave multiple updates each day! I will definitely have her become a designator sitter for my puppy! We were so worried about leaving him with a sitter but Jacqueline was very responsive which allowed my worries to go away!

Rebecca was so great! My first time using Rover, and first time leaving my new puppy. She sent me an update within the hour of me leaving reassuring me he’s doing great, and I could tell when I picked him up he had a great time! Would highly recommend and will be my go-to moving forward :)

Arlissa came highly recommended by a friend, and we are so thankful to have found her! We needed a more home like environment for our aging dog who began to struggle at the boarding facility. Both he and our younger dog seemed to have had a great time with her. We received daily (sometimes multiple times a day) updates, adorable photos, and questions/concerns about health/skin- which we appreciated her attention to detail. The pups came back relaxed, clean, and not as spun up and anxious as in previous stays at boarding facilities. We will absolutely be booking with her again, and recommending her to friends.

Mariah was great and extremely flexible! I was in the process of PCSing and she watched my two dogs within a days notice and was quick to respond and meet up when I needed to pick my girls up early upon notification that I had to leave earlier than expected. 10/10 recommend!!
