“Rachel took great care of our 15 year old terrier mix Cookie. She sent photos and messages to us everyday we were away. She followed all our directions and I felt relaxed and at ease knowing Cookie was happy. How do I know? Rachel reported that Cookie didn’t want her to stop rubbing her belly. Cookie does not let most people rub her belly!! That said it all!”
“Maureen and her family are naturals! They definitely had a way with dogs. Our puppy Kyoto immediately took to them and their lovely and spacious home. Maureen sent many updates and videos to show that Kyoto was being cared for and was happy in his new environment. Maureen even enabled him to socialize with another puppy successfully. I am so grateful to have found a safe and happy home away from home for Kyoto. Thank you, Maureen and family! Until next time!”
“Thank you Whitney & Michael! And to your sweet girls! Not only do you take very good care of Baily when we're away, but you treat him like he's part of your family, which makes all the difference!”
“Chestnut had a great time with Tanvi and her family. He’s always so well cared for and loved when he stays with them. She always sends great photos and videos throughout the day every day of his stay. Thank you again so much!”
“This was our first time using a pet sitter for Shibu (a Shih-Tsu) as we took our 3 week vacation. We couldn't be happier with how well Kimberly took care of her. Kim sent us regular pics and Shibu looked always active and happy, so we knew she was being well cared for. she has a fenced in backyard which is a major plus. Would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.”
“Gerry is the best. We just left our puppy with her for his first overnight stay and he was received with lots of love and attention. Would definitely recommend Gerry to others.”
“Jenny was wonderful with my dog Coco. This is the second time she’s taken care of him, and every time I pick him up, he’s happy and relaxed. She always sends me pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. It really feels like Coco is at home with her, and that means everything to me. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gives him.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Emiko! From the moment we connected, she was incredibly pleasant and professional, which immediately put me at ease. Her property is absolutely beautiful, and the neighborhood is just as great—perfect environment for a dog to feel safe and comfortable. What really stood out was her communication. She kept me consistently updated, which made a huge difference and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and that’s hard to find. She really treated our Whippet like family. I’ll definitely be using her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much, Emiko!!”
“It was great experience again with Ryan as that of last time. We got regular and timely updates on Sparkle and she looked happy with him. Thanks Ryan for taking care of Sparkle so well.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot say enough wonderful things about Thana and Subangi. They stepped in during a true emergency involving my elderly mother, and their kindness and flexibility meant more to me than I can express. They picked up Gigi right away and kept her for as long as we needed, completely removing one major worry from an already stressful situation. From the very beginning, they were in constant contact — sending thoughtful updates, pictures, and videos that reassured me Gigi was safe, comfortable, and happy. What stood out most was how genuinely they welcomed her into their home as if she were their own dog. You could see in every photo how relaxed and loved she felt. That level of warmth and care is rare. If you are looking for responsible, compassionate, and communicative dog sitters, Thana and Subangi are truly exceptional. I would trust them again in a heartbeat. 💛🐾”
“Jolanta was wonderful with my puppy! My pup loved her the very first time we met for a meet n greet. Jolanta is warm, friendly and welcoming. She is gentle with dogs and treats him like her own baby! Highly recommend Jolanta to anyone looking for a loving and caring home away from home for their dogs!”
“She did and absolutely amazing job with my Sophie. She sent daily updates and pictures. My baby had so much fun in her house with her family. I was extremely happy with her service and im definitely using again anytime I can!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Pam was absolutely amazing — friendly, reliable, and so caring with Reggie. She handled his insulin injections with total confidence and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me so much peace of mind. She sent daily updates and adorable videos — Reggie looked like he was having the best time! Lots of love, play, and attention, and I could tell he was completely comfortable with her. When I got home, he was happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found Pam — she went above and beyond and made our first Rover experience a total success. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Kiana is great and Ted loved his stay. It’s obvious that Kiana loves animals and treats them like they’re her own. She kept us updated with photos and videos, which my kids especially loved. Kiana is the best!”

“It was good experience. Volodimir took good care of my puppy and regularly updated me and my wife with videos. I'm going to use his service in the future and can recommend him with confidence”
“Davina and her family were so good to Arnie I was afraid he may not come home! Very proactive and responsive communication and pictures so you know your fur baby is happy! She even made homemade doggy treats and personalized each dog’s initial! Beyond exemplary!”
“This was my first time getting a cat sitter through Rover and it was an experience that I would highly recommend. I was so happy that I chose Anwar to care for my older cat for 10 days. My cat requires daily meds and some extra care and Anwar tended to all of his needs in professional and caring manner. I will definitely book with Anwar in the future.”

Princeton dog parents share their Rover experiences
I highly recommend Darin and McKenna as pet sitter! Our two dogs just spent a week at their place, and it truly felt like they were on their own luxury vacation. From the start, Darin and McKenna were incredibly attentive to every detail and specific need our pups had. They didn’t just "watch" our dogs; they genuinely befriended them and invested a lot of personalized time and affection into making them feel at home. What impressed us most was their dedication during a particularly tough week of heavy snow. Despite the weather challenges, they remained completely unfazed and stayed "up to the task," ensuring our dogs were safe, pampered, and happy throughout the storms. If you are looking for sitters who are responsible, caring, and go the extra mile, Darin and McKenna are the best choice. Our dogs can’t wait to go back!
