“Thank you for watching our whole tribe of fur babies. I appreciate the coordinated and organized drop-off and pick up. We received updates throughout their stay and everybody came home safe.”

“Cody (and Sersi) was amazing for our boys. Being a group of three Aussies made it that much better because everyone got along great and we got great pictures of our boys! Would absolutely bring our dogs to Cody again!”

“Frieda was a happy girl when she came home. She seemed to have enjoyed her stay. Anna was flexible and worked with Frieda's need to be with people. We appreciate Anna's ability to accommodate Frieda's needs. Would love to use Anna again.”

“Could not have asked for better care of my dog. 🐶 He’s a nervous Nelly and they made Leo feel right at home. They kept me up to date with photos and updates about how he was doing. 😊”

“Kayla is trustworthy and super loving with my Bella. Bella comes home happy and even more spoiled. Kayla is accommodating and cautious about your pet while in her care. Recommend her a 1000%.”

“Abby always takes great care of my chihuahua. She’s very communicative and was super flexible and understanding when my flight got delayed and Buster had to stay longer than anticipated. Highly recommend!”
“Mocha had a great stay at Jess’s place! Jess took great care of her and Mocha had so much fun playing with the other dogs! Jess does a great job making sure the dogs are playing safely with each other. We are looking forward to our next stay with Jess :)”

“Sam totally and completely exceeded our expectations as a pet sitter and caregiver! Honestly, I was nervous about using Rover to find someone to watch our pit mix, Thelma Lou. She's a rescue and we're the third (and final!) home she's had, so we knew we didn't want to board her at a traditional facility. We also weren't sure how she would get along with other dogs. When we first reached out to Sam, I told her that we were open to boarding, but would prefer to have her drop in on Thelma. Sam really encouraged us to board Thelma with her and after our meet-and-greet, we were convinced! Sam was so positive, patient, and caring with our girl. And she did awesome at helping Thelma socialize with her dogs! Where Sam truly went above and beyond, was helping us make our wedding day special! The reason we had initially reached out was to have her watch Thelma Lou for our wedding. We had originally wanted to have her be a part of our ceremony, but ultimately decided that it would be too overwhelming for her. We then decided that we'd like to have her in our photos and Sam suggested that we add on a pick-up/drop-off service. Sam drove 45+ minutes (with today's insane gas prices!) to bring Thelma up to our venue for about an hour of pictures. She did such a good job and even brought toys and extra treats to get Thelma's attention and winning smiles! Bonus! Sam is taking classes to become a trainer - and it shows in the way she works with her pets. We will DEFINITELY be working with her again in the future! Thank you, Sam!”

“Maritza & Daniel did a wonderful job taking care of our Border Collie, Kaylee, while we were out of town for a few days. The updates and pictures they sent kept us informed as to how Kaylee was settling in and showed how happy she was to become a regular part of their day!”

“Susan and her husband went above and beyond for our guy, Louie. Louie is a big boy that requires a lot of attention. They made him feel right at home! We would highly recommend them!”

“Very accommodating, nice and responsive with updates. This was our first experience with Rover and Lavina made a great first impression. Thank you- Cunningham Family”

“Rachel did a fantastic job watching our dog. She was able to watch him on less than 24 hours notice and went above and beyond in every area. She was constantly sending multiple updates throughout the day and showed our dog so much love and attention. We are truly grateful for Rachel and will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“We had one of the best boarding experiences on Rover! We had a sudden change of trip plan that put us in a tight scheduling spot but Tara and her family were extremely kind to accommodate a last-minute request for boarding our five-year-old Border Collie. Our family was able to enjoy our trip worry-free trip due to Tara's frequent text updates about Astor, accompanied by photos and videos of him looking relaxed and happy. We look forward to visiting Tara and her family again!”


“Nathan was absolutely fantastic with our three kitties for their short stay at his house. He was extremely friendly, attentive, and has extensive experience caring for cats. Our cats had a dedicated room at his house with enough space to sleep, play, eat, drink, and a window to look outside. This was our first time having our cats boarded at someone’s house and I was a little nervous beforehand, but instantly felt at ease once meeting Nathan and seeing where the cats would be staying. He also provided plenty of pictures and updates throughout the stay. Overall, very happy with the care and attention our cats received. I would 100% board my cats with Nathan again and recommend him to friends and family!”

“Janelle was wonderful. She took great care of our dog and kept us posted on how things were going. Would recommend her for anyone looking for an awesome and thoughtful sitter!”

“Couldn’t recommend Sarah and Nick highly enough. Pepper stayed with them for 18 days and she seemed to have a blast! We got updates with very cute photos very often, which gave us a lot of piece of mind while we were away! Will book again for sure!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pleasant Ridge
Susan and her husband Alan are amazing! They took incredible care of our two dogs, gave them so much love & attention and provided tons of cute updates frequently throughout my dogs’ stay. It was so comforting knowing my dogs were in excellent hands! I can’t imagine leaving my pups anywhere else!

Kimberly was super kind and accommodating!! My pup is people shy but he warmed up to her pretty quickly. She even had different toys and treats to gauge his interests. You can tell her heart is in this. I got consistent updates and i felt like my dog was in good hands. I will definitely book with her again!!

Our girls always have the best time with Rachel! Their tails start wagging when we turn onto her street and they don’t stop for hours after we bring them home. Rachel keeps our girls safe, happy and entertained with creative enrichment activities. She’s the most popular sitter in our neighborhood!

Sydney took exceptional care of our 7yr. old, mini golden doodle. She is prompt, courteous and wonderfully warm with people and pets alike. From our first meeting, I knew our dog was in great hands, which made our time away relaxing and worry-free. Her communication and photo updates were top-notch throughout the stay. This was our dog's first time staying with Sydney and we look forward to booking with her again!

Andrea was amazing and I cannot recommend enough! She helped me out when I was in a last minute bind and took my dog with one day notice. She sent me pictures and updates daily and kept me in the loop on how my dog was doing. Andrea is the most kind and my pup came home happy! We will absolutely use her in the future.

Jackie cared for my pup, Obie, so well while we were gone! She was extremely responsive, sent tons of pictures ans updates and she went above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable. Will book with Jackie again 1000%! Her dog, Pinky, is also such a sweetheart and very welcoming!

I can’t say enough good things! I have a geriatric dog with respiratory allergies. Shree was able to accommodate the additional care without question. Videos were provided daily and I felt so comfortable with Ruby in Shree’s care. Shree will be my go-to pet sitter moving forward.
