“Zoraya was wonderful with our pup. She was able to watch him in a pinch and sent lots of updates with pictures and videos, just like we like. We’ll definitely book with her again!”

“My puppy loved staying with Mariyana. I have a 3 month old puppy who stayed 2 nights and she made sure to send me videos and pictures of him which eased my mind a lot. I’ll definitely book again!”

“Great experience. This was my first time using Rover and my puppy’s first time being away from me. I got pictures of him everyday to know he was ok and it looked like he had a great and very comfortable time. I will definitely book again if I have to go out of town again. Very nice and caring with the dogs.”

“Alexis was an amazing last minute dog sitter after my prior plans with another sitter fell through. Moose was immediately happy to see her and ready to go spend the weekend his weekend away from home. Got daily updates/pics annd always knew he was getting plenty of love/attention. Would recommend 10/10.”

“Amy and Chelsea provided a lot communication which was excellent. They really seemed to enjoy getting to know Penny and her likes and then integrate that into Penny’s stay. We have already booked another stay with them!”

“The family took such great care of Simba! He was so happy playing with the other dogs. Erica sent lots of pictures, and it was clear that a lot of quality time was put in. I felt like Simba was with an extended family rather than strangers. I highly recommend them and will definitely be booking with them all the time!”

About: Genuine love for pets. I naturally care for their well-being and love the affection I get from all animals. My family and I have 5 dogs of our own and recently we were adopted by our newly stray cat, Carey. We have been fostering dogs since Thanksgiving of 2017 and we have learned a lot how all pets deserve second chances and how each one of them heals at their own time. My dog walks are tailored to your pet needs, I will focus on the safety of your pet and myself during my service. You can trust that your pet will always be in loving and caring hands. Dog walking would be my primary activity next to my English classes. I will work with you to make sure that your pets needs are met in a timely manner. At home we have a fenced backyard and at my customers' homes I make sure that safety is a priority during my service. That means that I would make sure that your pet is properly secured and that is happy while we are together.
“I could not be happier with Elezha’s care of our Khloe. She kept me informed of her daily activities and sent pictures each day. Khloe was extremely well taken care of and was right at home when I picked her up. Elezha definitely cares and it shows! I will definitely be contacting her again if we ever need services again. It’s a great feeling to know Khloe was left with someone who cared for her like family. Five stars for sure!!”

“Bondi had the best time during her week with Steven! We got to play with lots of other dogs and was constantly cared for. I loved receiving pictures of her during the day. We'll definitely bring her here again!”

“Lidia was amazing with my nearly 14 year old Yorkie. She kept me updated about her behavior and provided videos and photographs throughout my dog’s stay. I couldn’t have been happier with Lidia. I am making my next booking now.”

“My Nina requires patience, lots of it, and Casandra and her husband Donald had tons of it. They provided a very dedicated care to my dog, excellent, constant, often, extensive communication with many photos, took my dogs on walks and provided family companionship which is the best kind a dog can get. They’re very kind and professional and you can tell they truly love dogs and aren’t doing this just for money! God Bless them! I’m definitely coming back to them as soon as I need it. 100% recommended !”

“Thank you for taking care of our Zeus! I appreciate the daily photos for check in. She came to pick up and drop off Zeus which made everything easy with ZERO hassle. Kimberly, you did a great job and i will definitely be booking again. She responded very quickly and accepted my booking almost immediately.”

“Ruth has watched my dog, Karma, twice now. Karma gets so excited to come over to her house! Ruth is incredibly attentive to Karma and lets me know about everything that happens. Highly recommend!”


“Emi was great! She communicated quickly and frequently. She sent so many pictures and I could tell my dog was comfortable and happy! I will definitely use Emi again, I recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter. She will love your pup like they are hers!”

“Kaia was so amazing with my dog! We had a friend sitter cancel on us last minute and she was able to take him same day. Sent us lots of pictures and our little guy seemed super happy :)”

“Tressa was great, she kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and how my boy was adjusting! Thank you for watching Blue, we would definitely be coming back again !!”

“Michael and his family are kind and welcoming and made Timmy feel right at home! Timmy looked at ease within seconds of arrival and Michael kept us updated with lots of photos, videos and stories about Timmy’s antics throughout his stay. Highly recommend!”

Rice dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jordyn was amazing with my dog. She tends to be a little anxious, but Jordyn had her playing with other dogs and really building her confidence. I loved that she kept me abreast of how my dog was doing by sending descriptive texts and photos. I would definitely let Jordyn sit my Chilly again!

Ms. LeeAnna took such great care of my puppy Bea!! I was away for a week but she put me at ease with the constant updates and pictures. Bea had so much fun with her and her puppy Piper! Her days were full of fun at the park and yummy homeade treats 🐶 I’m so thankful to LeeAnna for taking such great care of her and will definitely rebook her in the future!! 🐾

Emily did a wonderful job boarding my dog for a long weekend. She was responsive, gave updates, and followed care instructions. My dog has a moderately high energy level and she was able to take him on two long walks a day to meet that. I'd happily book with Emily again in the future.

Tatianna was great! I provided detailed instructions, and she executed them perfectly. She sent daily pictures and had a FaceTime call, which greatly reassured me. She communicated with me every day. I highly recommend booking her, and I will definitely hire her again.

Ruaidhri was amazing looking after my Luna! She was treated like a princess and made feel safe, and she got all the pup cups she ever could’ve wanted! I was nervous leaving her as a fairly new dog parent but Ruaidhri really made everything so easy for me and Luna. An easy 100/100 experience, I trust Ruaidhri with Luna anytime!

This was our first time booking Randy and he was absolutely awesome! From the start of the booking process; he responded quickly, during boarding he sent pictures and updates on how Nova was doing, and pickup was a breeze. We’ve already booked a second stay. We are very appreciative for his care.

Claudia was very welcoming and understanding. She did an amazing job taking care of Poh! She was very attentive and caring, and even took the time to brush him and clean his bed, which I really appreciated. Poh looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I got back. She also took the request last minute, which made everything so much easier and less stressful. I would definitely trust Claudia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring for their pets.❤️
