“Thank you for the last minute booking. My mind is always at ease when Bonnie takes care of my pups. They sleep with her in the bed and have some pretty good cuddle sessions. She is the only choice for me. Doggie angel!!!”
“Charlie gets SO EXCITED as soon as we pull up in front of Jamie and Pat’s house. He LOVES to visit them! They are excellent dog sitters! We never worry about him when he is with them. He is a powerful puppy in a massive body and can be hard to handle, but Jamie and Pat are not the least intimidated by him. And their children and dogs are perfect for Charlie. We love Jamie and Pat and highly recommend them!”
“They did a great job watching our dog when we were out of town for a week. They were quick and easy to get in contact with and kept us updated on our dog while we were gone. Would definitely consider using them again”
“Mereya and Justin were terrific. Daisy was clearly well cared for, they communicated well, and their own three dogs are as sweet as can be; lastly, we had flight issues returning home, and they even watched her an extra six hours.10/10 would recommend. Will certainly use them again!”
“Mike is an incredible Rover and I would highly recommend him for any type of dog. Beaux had such a great time and I can’t thank you enough for watching him”
“She loved my dog like he was family. I was hospitalized for 44 days and she sent updates with texts and pictures. I was even able to set up zoom meeting to see my dog at one point in my recovery. Alexandria is so kind and even let me hug her and thank her for being like family to myself and my dog when I picked him up on day 44. I could go on all day about how wonderful she, her husband, and her kids were to my dog. I am so happy that I knew he was in good hands while I was away for such a long period of time. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Alexandria for short or long stays. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“I appreciate the love and care Aurelie gave my dogs while they stayed at her home. Her home was spacious and provided plenty of room to play for my dogs to run in and outside. They also enjoyed some walks. I got plenty of updates and photos/videos during their stay. My dogs enjoyed their time there. In the future I’d be happy to book with Aurelie again.”
“Pat is a dream come true! She is constantly sending me updates on and photos of my dog, Marley, and I can tell that he loves her company. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and really takes the time to understand him. All of her dogs are really sweet and loving. Now I feel like when I go on vacation, my dog is also on vacation at Pat's house! Thank you so much, Pat!”
“When our dog sees me getting his travel bag (treats and his blanket) he gets excited because he knows it’s time to go to Marcelle’s to hang out and play with her dogs. It makes me happy to see him happy. Thank you, Marcelle 😊”
“Liz was so great caring for our dog for 4 days! She was responsive, sent me lots of pictures and details about his day and genuinely seemed to care and love him. I will definitely use her again if we need a pet sitter”
“Kristle was communicative and flexible when we made a booking request for a holiday period. We appreciated that she took the time to do a meet and greet to make sure our dog would be a good fit in her household. Our dog looked happy and well loved during her stay - she even got her a gift! We really appreciated Kristle and would book with her again.”
“My dog loved staying with Leslie & James, it was very apparent in the pictures/videos I received! Thank you for taking such great care of my pup - my mind was definitely at ease while being away!”
“Maellen is the warmest, caring, and most attentive dog sitter we've ever had. She sent us daily updates with pictures and was very responsive anytime we had a question. We could tell our Toby was happy, safe and comfortable in Maellen's home. Not once did we worry about Toby's well being, safety or comfort and we were able to enjoy our time out of town. Toby got his daily walks, plenty of time with Maellen and we could tell that she took great care of Toby. We are looking forward to having Maellen watch Toby again. In fact, we have confirmed another booking with Maellen later in the year.”
“Joshua is great. He's a natural with dogs, and it's obvious he loves them! I HIGHLY recommend Joshua and his home for extended boarding. He has a very large yard for play, and the dogs love it! I travel a lot, and I will be using Joshua every time. My puppy, Mocha, made a new friend with Joshua's dog, Blitzen. Immediately, they became friends and were inseparable for seven days. Thank you, Joshua!!! My wife and I are very grateful for the care you gave Mocha!!!”
“Bailey was great with my fur child. She kept us updated and walked her daily. I would definitely recommend her. I will use her again. Thanks Bailey!”
“Laura took great care of my two dogs! She is accommodating and loves animals. I know my dogs were safe and happy with her while I was gone. Thanks for the help! And thanks for the extra treats for them to take home. :-)”
“Rachel did a great job with our two pups! We got photos almost everyday, they got lots of play time and love.”
“Patricia took care of my dog, while I had to go out of town. I would definitely book her again. I highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs.”
“Celine is always amazing! Our girl Juniper is eager to greet her every time and we get updates daily of her living her best life while staying with Celine!”
“Holly and Robert were amazing. Kenzie had some trouble interacting with other dogs before but they have amazing dog skills to help her to work and have fun with the other dogs. They did great and Kenzie came home happy and healthy. Way better than some sterile kennel. I am so happy Kenzie found a home away from home.”

Rio Grande dog parents share their Rover experiences
Faith was amazing with my little Lulu communicated very well with me on how well Lulu did each day … highly recommend faith with your animal !
Left my Basset for a week and he had a blast. Very responsive and friendly provider who went out of their way to make it easy. Already planning another trip now that I feel so comfortable
Nick was an amazing dog sitter. He was responsive, friendly, and communicative throughout Wrigley’s stay, and he kept us up to date with intermittent pictures and messages. We would gladly use Nick again!
Pat has been amazing as a pet sitter. She is professional but also takes a personal interest in the health and well-being of every client, furry and non. My dog tends to be higher on the anxiety scale but is always comfortable and calm while she's there and even when I pick her up. I highly recommend Pat, have used her pet-sitting services a few times already with great success, and will continue to do so.
This was my first time using Rover and Marcie boarded our dog and did check ins on our cats. All were well taken care of with frequent updates. It was a great experience and I was able to relax more on my trip knowing my pets were in good hands.
Jody boarded my dog for a week and gave updates on how he was doing in her care. We were happy with her and would use her again.
Our first time using Rover and we are very happy with our dog sitter, Kevin. He sent pictures, videos and kept us up to date on how our furry baby was doing. Thank you Kevin for keeping our baby safe while we were away.
I can’t recommend Emily enough for caring for my older Corgi. She did an amazing job, and I felt completely at ease knowing that all of his needs were being well taken care of. Thank you as well to Melody for her help! My dog tends to be a little tough to care for, as he follows me everywhere and is blind, but Emily handled him so well. The daily updates and pictures really reassured me — he looked relaxed and seemed to be settling in perfectly. I especially appreciated that someone was always with him, which is something hard to find. Emily is incredibly patient, understanding (my dog barks loudly and often), and genuinely loving toward animals. If you’re looking for a kind, reliable, and qualified pet sitter, Emily is the one! I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future, as my dog was so happy at her and Melody’s home. Thank you again, Emily and Melody!
Savannah did an excellent job with Quantum. She spoiled him with treats and walks and we got daily photos and updates. It was great being able to know he was happy and safe while we were away.
Carmen was wonderful! I appreciated her flexibility, and my dogs appreciated all the walks and kind care. Will definitely re-book asap!
Patrick and his family were extremely kind, courteous, and followed all of my instructions. While I missed my two dogs very much, I had no worries while they were in Patrick’s care. I got pictures and updates regularly and pick up/drop off was easy and flexible. I’ll definitely be requesting Patrick’s care for our next trip!
My dog had an absolutely wonderful time over with Diane! She took great care with keeping me updated through the week and letting me know whenever issues occurred as well as giving her more than enough love!
Carlota was very nice and welcoming to my dog and cat. She was able to take them in with short notice over a holiday weekend and we are very appreciative. I did have to message her every day first to get an update on the animals, but she was typically prompt in answering. She obviously cares about animals very deeply, just needs to work on some communication.
