“She was very accommodating, last minute, kept us updated with a lot of pictures throughout the day. My blue had a great time! She was very responsive and made us feel very comfortable. I will definitely be calling her again. She is now my go to sitter!”
“Tanvi and her family, down to their dog were excellent! They were affectionate, caring and playful with coco. I received an abundance of videos and photos everyday that kept my worries at bay. It was my first time using a dog sitter/ Rover and was fortunate to find Tanvi who was a perfect fit. Coco was visibly happy there and it was a reflection of their care. Thank you!”
“Jennifer was amazing to work with! We were so worried about leaving our dog with someone new, but he seemed to do great. Jennifer sent pictures or our dog often and kept in contact everyday we were gone. We felt so much peace knowing our pup was in good hands. We will forsure be booking with Jennifer in the future.”
“Vince is amazing. He put my mind at peace with just 1 meet & greet visit. It’s like Magik returned from Hogwarts University 🪄dog edition. Can’t wait to use Vincent’s services again.”
“Rachel was very accommodating in regards to the time for picking up our Cookie as we were going to a baseball game nearby. She also responded to my texts in a timely manner and sent a pic of our girl. Rachel, and her boys, showed a passion for watching others' dogs. I would highly recommend her for drop offs.”

About: I have been fostering for over 15 years and petsitting for about 5 of those years. I took a break for some time when I moved to Texas, and then the pandemic added to that. Most recently, I was taking care of my grandmothers dog.. essentially a hospice situation, and spent most of my time loving up on him. Since his passing, I would love to get back into it so can provide care and love. I’m used to all breeds, but have the most experience with bully breeds chihuahuas, and most medium size breeds like shitzhus, Maltese’s, and schnauzers. Very comfortable providing oral or topical ointments.. nothing really grosses me out. I enjoy providing baths and making sure your furry friend is feeling their best. Especially for my dirty white dogs with the crusty eyes (lol)! Overall, I treat every pet that walks into my life like it were my own. I take pride in knowing that I’m giving someone’s pet lots of love and care while their owner is away. I want them to feel like they’re hanging with a friend and try to alleviate any stress. Leaving your baby for any period of time is tough, so knowing you have someone you can trust to be an extension of you is all I want. I lost my job recently, so I’ll have a lot more time for walks, feedings, and of course cuddle time with the puppies. Other than caring for my own kitty, my time would really be catered to your needs as an owner should you choose me to help take care of your little one. Our home has a partially fenced in yard that we can allow your pet to enjoy. There’s a full basement, living room, and bedroom that the pups can enjoy relaxing in and hanging out. There’s space for a crate as well for those who are or in the process of training.
“Winston had another wonderful stay with Marlene for 5 overnights. Marlene's communication is excellent and we are so thankful to how attentive she is to our Winston while he is in her care. Marlene provides daily updates and pictures of Winston and it means the world to us!”
About: Have always grown up with cats and dogs, have fostered some dogs and am an overall animal lover. I have a corporate job where I can work from home some days I am mostly on here just for fun and to meet people in my area. Just getting started so would love to make you my first client. I work from home several days a week so am flexible to accommodate other professionals during office hours. Available on weekends also. Happy to flex. In my home, the animal would be the only one present at any given time. I love animals and your pet would be well cared for. Any interaction in your home, I’d be respectful of your space.
“Meet and greet went so well i felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her. The overall stay was great, very friendly and caring towards peanut, sent pictures and updates (even bathed him) from the pictures i could see he was very happy, which made our time away from him more easy to enjoy knowing he was in good hands. Will definitely use Claudia again and highly recommend.”
About: Your dog will be loved while you’re away by someone who is communicative, experienced, and has handled all kinds of emergency situations. I’ve been raising guide dog puppies since 2015 and am well-versed in all things dogs. I have experience with all personalities and temperaments, basic training and exposure, administrating medicine, and basic medical care. Having helped raise over a dozen guide dog puppies, I’m experienced in all things puppy-raising including housebreaking, teaching beginner’s obedience, and manners. I’ve also worked with special needs dogs such as those with trauma, post-surgical care, and special medical administration. Pups are my favorite part of my schedule, so I’ll usually try to work around pup-times, making sure all needs are taken care of throughout the day. I often work virtually so I can check in and spend time with your pups, and like to schedule outings to be animal-friendly as much as possible, so that they can come with me. When it comes to your home, I will take your lead, and be as respectful as possible. Please show me your/your pet’s preferences and I’ll adhere to those wherever I can. I believe in building our relationship with trust and explicit communication. You are sharing your precious companions and home with me, and I cherish that so much. I will take good care of them so that you feel assured that they’re in good hands. I do have a German shepherd that is a career change from The Seeing Eye program, and a friendly and very gentle cat. They can come with me or stay at our home with my partner, depending on your preference.
“I was beyond apprehensive leaving my dog with anyone. I am a very protective mom. I truly feel lucky finding Christian on rover.com. He is amazing with my pit bull, Nico. Unfortunately, pit bull get a bad rap and I had some difficulty trying to find a sitter. We use his service twice and the second time around, my dog Nico went into his house wagging his tail like he lived there. This gave me a sense of relief because it confirmed that Nico was comfortable. Christian made sure to update us on a daily basis with text messages, pictures and videos. He even went the extra step and bathe my dog.”
“Esther was amazing with Mia! Esther sent me daily updates and pictures. Mia is in a single dog home and she got along well with Esther's dog. Mia was rescued on August 24, 2026 and Esther and her care of Mia was a HUGE relief when I went away for the weekend! I am looking forward to Mia's next stay with Esther!”
“Vernisha, did an excellent job from the beginning of our communication until the moment we picked him up. She kept us informed throughout our getaway and sent photos and videos, including updates from the park when she took our dog for a walk. We really loved the way she cared for him and kept us updated on his well-being. We highly recommend her!”
“Michael was a joy to work with and we really appreciated the care he showed Mithu! He sent lots of photos that really gave us peace of mind while we were away and Mithu had a great time with him.”
“We are incredibly grateful to Evgenii for the amazing care Patrick received. This was a very last-minute booking, and from Thursday night through Monday evening everything went absolutely smoothly. Evgenii was communicative, reliable, and clearly treated Patrick like his own. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our Patrick was in such good hands. We truly appreciate the flexibility and care and would not hesitate to book again. Highly recommend Evgenii!”

Desirae took great care of my dog over the weekend. He is not used to staying anywhere outside of his safe space in his home so I was a bit nervous before booking. Desirae kept me updated throughout his stay and my dog was very comfortable in her home. This was my first time using Rover and I will certainly be rebooking with Desirae for any future dog sitting!
Krystsina was great. This was my first time using Rover and I booked last minute but she very reliable! She made me and my dog extremely comfortable. She made sure to send pictures and videos throughout the stay and kept me updated on how he was doing. My dog sometimes gets anxious around new faces but she made sure to give him treats, take him outside, and play with him to make sure he felt comfortable with her and her daughter. He looked like he was having a great time. I will definitely book with her in the future!
Rodger and his family were excellent caretakers. He was patient and understanding with our anxious dog. He provided ample updates on how our dog was doing sending videos and photos regularly which offered us comfort as we missed our dog while on vacation. The best video was seeing Rye play like he does at home which made us so happy to see. We’d definitely book with Rodger again in the future. I’m sure Rye would be happy to spend time with his new friend again!
Grace was a lifesaver, This was very short notice less than 24 hours and my very first time leaving my doggy with a caretake. she was able to help me take care of my doggy while i was away. She even picked him up and dropped him off - he looked very happy and refreshed. I am really happy i found her and will def be using her in my future plans. She communicates all through the process and even sends me pictures of my happy dog all during his stay. Grace thank you again!! you are the BEST!! Looking forward to working with you again. thank you
Rose is wonderful! Super responsive and so kind. She took amazing care of my dog while I was away, and I received regular updates. It is clear Rose truly loves dogs and treats them like family. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
Our dog Oreo had a wonderful stay! Firdavs was very communicative and provided regular updates on Oreo daily with pictures; he enjoyed his time there very much and was happy the entire time. We really appreicated the excellent care and would highly recommend!
We can't thank Jacqueline enough for being able to watch Sedona on short notice. You were wonderful to go through her care instructions so thoroughly and for you and Mimi to welcome her into your home and shower her with loving care. All of the photos and updates were much appreciated!
Marsha was phenomenal. The first night my epileptic dog was there he had a seizure through no fault of hers. She was calm, communicative and compassionate. She handled it so well and with such responsibility and concern. Luckily for all, .the rest of my dogs’ stay was much less eventful! Despite it all, she fell in love with my dogs—it was obvious—and they seemed to adore her. She is a gem and I would highly recommend her if you want a responsible and loving sitter who is battle tested.
From the moment we met Kajal, her family, and her sweet dog Nala, we knew Toby was going to be in the best hands. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and proactive throughout the entire stay — sending regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of the country. What truly sets Kajal apart is how naturally she treats every dog like family. Toby has had sitters before, but we have never seen him this relaxed, happy, and at ease with anyone outside of home. He fit right in with Kajal's family and Nala, and honestly? He almost seemed a little sad to come back — which, as a pet parent, is the highest compliment you can give a sitter. It is incredibly rare to find someone who matches the love and care you pour into your own dog, and Kajal does exactly that. Toby is more than a pet to us he's family — and she treated him no differently. I would recommend Kajal without a single hesitation, not just for Toby, but for any dog lucky enough to stay with her. If you're looking for a sitter who will love your pup like their own, look no further!
Shreena took amazing care of Omy again! This time Omy stayed with her for an entire month, and everything was perfect. She treated him like her own, kept him happy and comfortable, and gave regular updates. At the end, she even gave him a bath which was such a nice touch — he came back super clean and fresh. Overall, we were very happy and will definitely book with her again!
Such a wonderful experience with Doug and Michelle. My very anxious dog looked relaxed and at home in every picture. Communication was easy and thorough. My pup's complicated medication and treat schedule were followed perfectly!! I very highly recommend this sitter!!
