“Kathleen was SO great! The photos and videos she sent helped us rest assured that our baby boy was being taken care of. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your dog while you’re away, I’d HIGHLY recommend Kathleen! We will absolutely be utilizing her services again!”
“Jimmy was at Richard's during the week of Christmas and seemed like he had a great time with him and his pack of dogs. Richard was kind, accommodating and sent pictures and videos regularly. His house has a huge yard for the pups to run around in. When I got back Jimmy was a happy, healthy and tired pup. Will surely recommend Richard and his pack to others looking for a safe and fun place to board their dogs.”
“Victoria was a phenomenal sitter for our pup Luna. Victoria was super responsive before and during Luna’s stay with her, and Luna enjoyed having lots of room and other doggy friends to play with during her staycation. The best part was receiving frequent photos and updates from Victoria, which always brightened our day. I highly recommend Victoria for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“It was amazing to have Amy watch our dog! Drop off and pick up were very easy and convenient, and she was wonderful with our pretty anxious and nervous dog. She took great care of him and really went the extra mile in every way. Thanks, Amy!”
“Nelia and Brett, along with the rest of their beautiful family, took amazing care of our dog! Their communication was excellent — They sent (at least) twice daily updates and pictures. Our dog was given lots of attention and exercise and was very happy during his stay in their home. We will certainly book with them again and we highly recommend!”
“Emily and Patrick were wonderful! From the beginning, they were asking thoughtful questions about Ruby's needs, routine, and personality. Their dog, Eli, became a new fur friend to our pup, Ruby and the photos and videos they shared while we were away gave us peace of mind. They were also accommodating as we had to change our drop off and pick up times. We will definitely be booking them again!”
“A sweet gem of a person! Super attentive to the needs of my pup and stayed in contact with me. Picture updates were provided too. Christine picked up on Beanie’s personality so quickly and handled her with such care. Christine rocks!!”
“Tevon was wonderful. He took great care of our dogs, was very informative and quick to respond. Will definitely book with him again next time we’re in need.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Breanna doggie sitting our senior girl over the weekend. Breanna’s communication throughout the process was amazing proving updates and photos. Her experience with dogs truly showed. We had no worries! Highly recommend Breanna. Our girl misses her already.”
“Tia’s home feels like Robin’s second home. We booked with her several times and Robin came back so happy and healthy each time. I always got updates from Tia and saw Robin was having an amazing time with his friends! 🐾 I really trust Tia and her family with everything and I am sure they take care of Robin like their own dog! I can’t recommend booking with her enough 💕”
“Denise and her husband did such a wonderful job with my dog, Parker. It was my first time using their services and they made me feel comfortable and worry free while I was away with frequent updates and photos. Highly recommend! Hope to be able to book with them again soon. Thank you :)”
“Christy was great with our doodle! I was nervous to have her stay with someone since it was our first time but things went so smoothly and once I met Christy and her dogs, I felt so much more comforted! She sent pictures and updates everyday without fail and it was so clear that our pup had gotten attached to her when it was time to leave. She is also extremely communicative and punctual! We are glad to have found a reliable and kind dog sitter for our pup to use long term. Thank you, Christy!”
“Kristen was absolutely amazing! My dog was sssssooooo comfortable with her and the other pets. Even made friends with a kitten!!!!! Love her! Will definitely be reaching out to her again!!!! THANK YOU 😊”
“Rachel was excellent with my senior dog, Majic! I'm always nervous when I leave him with someone for the first time. But, I felt so comfortable with Rachel during the week that I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying. I received frequent updates and pics while we were away. And, if Rachel had a question, she texted to ask. She followed all of our instructions including feeding and giving his eye medication. Rachel was very attentive and made sure Majic felt like home. We will definitely sit with Rachel again in the future!”
About: I had a dog myself when I was younger and often looked after neighbors and cousins dogs while they were out of town. I’m doing this because I like the company of an animal and will treat it well while it’s in my care I work full time and are away from my home approximately 8:15am to 7:30pm. I could be available for and later evening walk but my weekends generally to not have plans so I will be available for a lot more care during that time. I live in an apartment but there is open grass space in the complex and throughout the neighborhood. I would enjoy a long walk or visiting a nearby dog park with any pet.
“Tessa takes such great care of Leo! He is a senior hound; he takes daily medicines and has separation anxiety. Tessa does an awesome job of keeping him calm and happy. I always appreciate her daily updates!”

Polish Hill dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ashley and Nick are awesome! They hosted my labradoodle (Bailey) for 10 days while we travelled, and took amazing care of him! Ashley sent me daily updates and photos, which was so helpful and reduced my stress and worry about Bailey. They welcomed Bailey into their home and treated him like one of the family. Ashley is very knowledgeable and experienced with dogs and did a great job of reducing Bailey’s stress and helping him settle in quickly. I highly recommend Ashley and Nick and will definitely be using them again to host Bailey the next time we travel.
Lucy & Matthew were amazing! They sent picture updates every morning and night, took my dogs on several walks a day, and were totally receptive to all my dogs quirks and craziness! Will definitely be using them in the future and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, loving sitter for their pups!
Liz has been a major asset to Auggie and us over the last 2 vacations. She certainly loves dogs but also understands dogs’ language beyond our expectations, while connecting and communicating with us, humans, promptly and efficiently. She sends beautiful pictures and perfectly measured daily updates of our dog’s vacation time (while we are on a different vacation). Will be so happy to have her host Auggie’s next vacation! Thank you, Liz!
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! My dog stayed for 7 days and was treated like part of the family. Rae walked Luna regularly, went on fun outings, and even got to join in on runs—which she loved! I received great updates and photos throughout her stay, so I always knew she was happy and well cared for. It’s clear she got plenty of exercise, attention, and affection. I highly recommend and will definitely book again! Thanks again, Rae! Cheers.
Our dogs were well taken care of over a weekend at Shannon and Steven's home! They were very communicative and based on all the photos, we know our dogs received the thing they crave the most = snuggles. We were thankful they were able to accomodate us in the mix with their 2x dogs. We'd definitely book with them again if Louie and Bess would allow it! ☺️
Abby and Jason were incredible with our five month old puppy. We were anxious about leaving her for the first time, let alone for a whole week, and we were at ease as soon as we met them and Wall-E. Prior to booking they were communicative and that continued through the stay with daily updates. As soon as I picked her up I could tell she had a great week. As I am writing this she is taking a nap and we have already requested a stay for our next trip!
Christine was honestly so amazing. From the beginning she was soo helpful! I have never booked through here before or knew how this whole process went, and Christine made this process just so easy. I was so skeptical leaving my old lady while I went out of town due to her having anxiety issues from her shelter stay before I adopted her. But Christine made this a perfect stay for her! I got daily photos and updates and my Bella Bean even made a friend!!! (Christine’s kitten). This was just a lovely experience! And since my Bella Bean is so comfortable with Christine now, I will absolutely be booking again!! Thank you so much Christine!! 💗💗
Brad is hands down our favorite sitter we’ve used! If we travel we look at his calendar first. We have a senior dog with some challenges and medication. Brad is amazing at taking care of our older guy. He follows the instruction provided and gave me daily updates. I would highly recommend Brad if you get the opportunity!
breanna did a great job of looking after our 7 year old dog. she treated her like she was her own. i felt so comfortable leaving her with breanna - she kept us updated with pictures and updates every day. i would absolutely book with her again for our next trip out of town.
