1. Maxine S.


“Maxine was very wonderful with our little one. She takes caring for our little one really serious yet knows how to inspire fun and relaxation.Our little one had a spectacular time, Maxine will certainly be our go to dog sitter next time we need one.”


2. Nicole M.

“Nicole was great with our dog and provided us with pictures and updates. Our dog follows a strict diet and take medications- these were not an issue for Nicole. We felt comfortable leaving our baby with her and plan to use her for future stays.”


3. Ashleigh E.

“Ashleigh was an absolute life save watching our dog Juneau! We had a trip planned for months & our dogs were going to stay with a boarder. However, June tore her ACL 2 weeks before our trip. I had never used Rover before but Ashleigh was perfect & put me at ease! She took the best care of June, sent a lot of updates, & kept her safe and happy! She was also very flexible as I had to ask her to watch Juneau an extra day. We can't thank her enough. Highly recommend her far all your fur baby needs!”


4. Rachel D.


“We first did a meet and greet with Rachel and her dog, Zeplin. The dogs were just fine together. I would definitley board again with Rachel. She was communicative and sent pictures of my dog doing just fine every day. She even worked with me on my pick up schedule since my flight was late getting back into town. Very nice!!”




5. Marcos E.


“Just want to say this was my first time using Rover and I was beyond scared. I have a 2 dogs and they both are just full of energy all the time. I was interested in Marcos right away just based off his reviews, and he exceeded every expectation of mine. These reviews don’t do him complete justice. He sent messages and pictures of both my dogs daily, made sure they were safe and loved, and truly treated them like his own. I will not be using anyone other than Marcos for my next trips.”


6. Kristin B.

“Kristin and her loving family were a complete godsend for my two senior dogs and me! As a new Florida resident working from home, I faced the jarring predicament of leaving my fur babies behind for the first time—with my entire support system over 3,000 miles away. After a recent sitter horror story, I was anxious about finding someone trustworthy. Kristin’s exceptional communication, endless affection for my dogs, and frequent updates (FOMO!) put me at ease immediately. Her thoughtful care, attention to my dogs’ needs, and warm, cuddly family made it clear—they weren’t just being watched; they were being loved. Seeing them so happy truly filled me with gratitude. If you’re a fellow Tampa newcomer or simply hesitant about entrusting your pets to a new sitter, let Kristin’s own fur babies be the proof of her deep love and understanding of animals. Their easygoing, respectful, and welcoming demeanor reflects the care and compassion they receive daily. Thanks to Kristin, I was able to fully relax and be present while celebrating the birth of my nephew—something I never thought possible with my usual separation anxiety (haha!). I cannot recommend her enough!”


7. Akshatha K.

“AK was amazing. Communicated very well with me and Max was a very very happy dog when I picked him up. That means he felt secure and safe. Will definitely use her again! And she gave him a little toy!”


8. Cece S.


“Cece did such an incredible job watching my corgi!! Constant updates and communication.She was attentive and did a great job with Louie.Would definitely recommend 😃”


9. Lynne W.

“SO SO NICE! Lynn and her husband are such nice people. Cookie was so happy by them. She had access to a nice yard and the whole house. I got pictures and messages letting me know she was having a good time. They took great care of her. I already wanted to book a second time but they are not going to be in town.”


10. Emilie M.

“Recommend 100% and will book with her again for my next trip. I was nervous to leave my dog as he gets super sad but with Emilie he seemed very happy. She sent pictures everyday and responds very quickly to any questions! My dog Yogi enjoyed his time with her!! Even had to extend my reservation 1 extra day and she was very flexible.”


11. Roger M.

“Roger was wonderful looking after our Macy. Sent us a few pics assuring us everything was going well. I’d highly recommend Roger to other pet owners.”


12. Hermun P.


“Hermun was amazing! (As well as her trusted assistant, Riley - her adorable Beagle). She met with me before I booked and let Macie explore her home and check compatibility with our dogs. She would send me daily pictures and was very flexible on drop off and pick up times. I wasn’t worried about Macie’s happiness or safety. She has a great back yard which is protected and gated allowing Macie to enjoy the outdoors. I will absolutely rely on Hermun and Riley for future visits.”


13. Chante M.

“Chante was great with the fur baby. She was in constant contact and very attentive. Communication was great and she took great care of my baby. Would definitely use her again.”


14. Jocelyn B.

“Jocelyn made this overnight stay so easy and Murray was super happy with her and the other dogs. Will definitely ask Jocelyn to look after Murray again!”


15. Molly F.
“I hesitate to write this to not give away the best kept secret. Molly is very compassionate, flexible, patient, and reliable and grateful we found someone that lives so close.”


16. Erika M.

“Erika and her family were the best hosts to my pup. The moment I met them, my dog was drawn to them and I was confident I had found a great sitter. My dog stayed for 6 nights and came home one tired guy. Erika sent numerous pics which was much appreciated and I was reassured that my dog was not missing me 😂 When I pulled out the leash as I picked him up, he didn’t want to leave. I will definitely use Erika again.”


17. Shayna W.

“Perfect! Very communicative, send updates and pictures everyday and perfect location, our dog had separation anxiety at the beginning but she managed to calm her down. Highly recommend”


18. Lexi H.

“Lexi was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my dog and was so sweet and attentive from the very beginning. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such loving hands. I will def be booking again!☺️”


19. Sally G.


“Sally was amazing taking care of my high energy dog, Aspyn! She gave her TONS of exercise (I have an activity collar on Aspyn so I can see the steps!) and gave great updates. Aspyn is my world so I was very picky when choosing a Rover sitter, and I couldn't be happier with Sally. I would definitely trust her with Aspyn again!”


20. Alex C.

“Whitney and Alex were awesome with my sweet Gluhwein!! . Glue had so much fun and made two new best friends Hank and Gino! Unfortunately, my dog got a rash the day before I had to drop him off, but Whitney and Alex were so great with giving him medication and sending me updates on how the rash was healing.. They also sent update pictures throughout the day on what they were doing which definitely helped put my mind at ease while being away!! My puppy had the greatest time and I will definitely be reaching back out to see if they will take him again in the future!!! Thank y’all so much!!”
