“My boy stayed with Duane and Lauren and had a great time. They are so kind and communicative with pupdates throughout their stay. I have already recommended them to friends and will definitely use them again!”


“Julie watched two of my pups 8 month boy and 2 year old girl and they both have severe anxiety. She worked with them slowly and by day two they were running around with the other pups and sleeping on her lap. Will absolutely book again !”
“Kaycee and Robert did a great job with our little puppy Milton. We loved that Milton could play with their kids, run around in the backyard with their dog, and feel at home. He’s a handful and came home happy!”

“Joan did a wonderful job caring for our sweet geriatric dog, Daisy. She needed a laid back, comfortable take-it-slow environment and Joan and her dogs were a great fit for her. We got pictures every day which assured us that Daisy was enjoying her "summer camp" experience as we enjoyed our trip away.”

“Our dog Reggie had a great time with Hope! She does an amazing job sending lots of updates and photos and was so fast to respond. He will definitely be back and I would highly recommend!”

“My dog, Sully, had so much fun with Rebekah, Alex, and their toddler and pups! Rebekah sent updates and asked many questions to make sure Sully had the best stay. She was also very flexible and able to accommodate for us at the last minute. Will definitely be returning and Sully can’t wait to visit again!”

“Excellent host! They send daily pictures and updates. My dogs looked so happy being in their home and backyard. Great communication and very flexible and accommodating.”

“Jessica and her kiddos were great to my dog! He got along well with her doggos and she kept them all super active! Really appreciated all the pictures and updates while I was gone. Would 100%book with her again!”

“Al and Hannah were phenomenal! They were very responsive and sent a lot of updates through my dog's stay. It made me feel very comfortable leaving Cas with them, and I absolutely will again if the need arises. Highly recommend!”

“I hesitate to leave a review because I don’t want anyone else to steal our future dog sitter! Our dog had the best time with Amanda and family. They’re great! Couldn’t be happier with our experience.”

“Absolutely the best! Emily and her family adored my dog so much. From the moment I entered their house with Pixel in my arms to the moment I picked her up, I was kept updated every evening with pictures of all the fun activities they were having with her. It was evident that their family loved Pixel just as much as Pixel loved them. If you’re searching for a fantastic dog sitter, I highly recommend Emily and her family. They took excellent care of my family member and made her my go-to Rover host when I need one again. I’ll definitely reach out to Emily first to check their availability and wouldn’t want to miss the opportunity to use them again.”

“Edith did a wonderful job taking care of our four-legged family member. She was caring, responsible, and an excellent communicator. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing our pup was in such good hands.”

“Gilian made booking with her a breeze. She is very considerate of dogs’ temperaments, and made sure our pup would get along with the other pups before the stay. While our dog was with her, she gave us informative updates and was very responsive.”

“From first meeting Robert, Fauci and I were convinced he’s the best! He understands dogs and knew just how to keep him content and happy; a schedule with 4 walks, mealtime, and most importantly a loving approach. I highly recommend Robert!”


“Scott was so great! Came through and took such good care of Penny when we were in need last minute. She was happy and loved and we received nice updates. Will definitely have him watch Penny again.”

“Maddie was great! She is friendly, responsive, and professional. First time we boarded our pup, and it couldn't have gone better. Ivan got walks and cuddles and we got frequent updates. Would definitely book with Maddie again.”

“Ronalisa took wonderful care of our two pups for the weekend! She really put our minds at ease when we were away, providing updates and pictures. I would highly recommend Ronalisa!”

Ridgewood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Guster's usual sitter wasn't available, so we reached out to Jessica to take care of him for Thanksgiving. Guster had a GREAT time! Coming back home, he was still as confident as ever (as a rescue he sometimes regresses when he has too much exposure to new things), and during our meet up/drop off/pick up, it was clear to see how much fun he was having. Jessica took great care of him, and I would recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter!

Alicia is such a wonderful fit for our dog, Modi, who loves staying with her when we are out of town! Alicia is so consistent & very reliable!! We highly recommend her services on Rover, as she provides a loving, nurturing home for our senior dog when we are away! 5+ stars 🌟

Julie was amazing with Ozzy! She took such great care of him and kept me updated throughout his stay, which gave me total peace of mind. She even went above and beyond by bringing him home for me afterward. We will absolutely book with Julie again. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Laura! We had a last minute care cancellation and needed a sitter for our 4 month old puppy. Not only did she take him in as one of her own, she helped safely build his confidence and helped him socialize with her gentle and well mannered dogs and cat of her own. I got multiple updates throughout the weekend, lots of pictures and best part is we were able to enjoy our best friend’s wedding because our worries were truly at ease knowing he was being taken care of by Laura. Will absolutely be looking to Laura first for any puppy care needs moving forward and I HIGHLY recommend having your fur baby stay with her ❤️

Mikaela was so great and super flexible! Estrella was prescribed medications right before her stay and Mikaela handled it like a pro! She also sent updates and photos which was much appreciated. We truly felt like we could trust her and Theo to give Estrella the best care while on vacation, which was a huge relief. We are looking forward to have Estrella stay with them again!

Bekah and Alex were amazing for Paka's 12-day mega-stay! Unfortunately on day #2, Paka did something clumsy in the backyard and had to be taken to the ER vet, but I so appreciated how communicative Bekah was through the entire process and how attentive she was with all of the aftercare. With multiple updates with photos per day, I didn't feel thousands of miles away. Paka still had a great time getting lots of cuddles and time basking on the deck. I would recommend them and book them again myself!

Kara was amazing with our puppy, Marty! We had a last minute change shortly before our trip and needed to find someone to care for our puppy. Kara was able to care for Marty and he did great in her home! She handled his puppy related behaviors without issue. Kara communicated with us throughout the week and sent us regular updates. We will gladly send Marty to stay with Kara again in the future!
