“Jerrie and Freeman took excellent care of our two dogs at short notice. They were very patient in introducing my dogs to their home and their dogs and making them part of their family during their stay.”

“Kelly is amazing!! She was very careful to make sure she understood our dog and her specific routine. Our dog had such a great time and really enjoyed playing and hanging out with Kelly’s dog. We have already booked again for an upcoming trip. We highly recommend Kelly!!”

“Camilla was amazing with my dog Bailey! She sent me the cutest photos so I could see how well she was doing. When my business trip got extended, Camilla was super flexible and allowed me to extend the booking two additional days. She was literally a lifesaver!! Look forward to booking with Camilla again in the future!!”


“Valeria has been amazing with our dog. She made sure every detail was covered, she took such good care of our buddy! I will definitely be using her again!!”

“Juan Pablo took excellent care of our two dogs. He sent us regular pics and videos. He provided a positive social environment with his dog and other neighbour’s dogs. It was like one big Chi family. We had a great time on our vacation knowing our dogs were well taken care of. The peace of mind is priceless!”

“Louis stayed with Elizabeth for almost 3 weeks while we were on an extended vacation. We naturally were nervous as we had never left our “baby” for more than a few days with a sitter. Elizabeth put us completely at ease. Her family treated Louis as one of their own. She sent us regular updates and adorable photos. I would wholeheartedly recommend Beth for short or long term dog boarding and would happily use her again!”

“Payal was amazing taking care of Ted! Communication was 10/10: she shared pictures and videos all the time, and I could clearly see my dog was happy and in great hands. I strongly recommend her!”

“Felipe and his wife did a great job taking care of Nola for us. They were able to take us in last minute and saved our trip. They sent photo updates and had her ready to go on pick up day. Thank you!”

“Nicole was great taking care of my dog while I was away. She pick him up and brought him back which was a judge help. Will recommend her and book with her again :)”

“Irina was absolutely amazing with Max. From the moment we met her, I felt comfortable leaving him in her care. She kept me updated the whole time with photos and messages about how he was doing, which really meant a lot to me. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was safe and happy. Max seemed to really enjoy being with her, and I could tell he was in a caring and positive environment. She was attentive. I would definitely ask her to dog sit Max again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and communicative. can’t wait to book her again! 🩷”

“Absolutely will recommend Jessica anytime. She has been great with my fur baby both times I’ve trusted Jessica with her. She communicates and sends me photos of my baby throughout. Even did a photoshoot with her last time!”

“This was the happiest I’ve ever seen my dog after getting picked up from a trip. You could tell he really enjoyed his time there, and has a new buddy out of Nala! This is our first sitter since we moved, and I think we’ve found our go to person!”

“Jessica was amazing while my goldendoodle stayed with her. She personally committed to sending me videos and pictures of Numa so many times throughout the day that I felt as though I i was still with my pup. She has a very calm and comforting nature with dogs which I got to see in action during our meet and greet. Jessica texted me with questions whenever something came up in handling my dog. She’s great!!!”


“Taylor was amazing with my dog Ozzy! She kept me updated, made me feel completely comfortable while I was away, and treated him like her own. Ozzy was so happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would absolutely trust Taylor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

About: I’m a reliable and detail-oriented pet sitter and dog walker who understands how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I follow routines carefully, prioritize safety, and provide lots of love and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around my bookings so I can give each pet my full attention, whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or extended care. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any specific care notes. I keep the space clean, provide companionship, playtime, and exercise, and always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment.
“I had my fur baby stay with Ekaterina and her family for a few days, and I definitely don’t regret it! She made my first time using this app super easy. Sophie took to her right away, and Ekaterina kept me in the loop with updates and pics, which really helped me feel better about being for being away from her. It was great working with her, and I will definitely book with her again.”


“Fantastic experience and great communication before, during and even after our dog’s stay. We got a clean, healthy and happy dog back after 10 days. Clean house with fenced backyard, we will certainly be return customers!”

“Maria is the best dog sitter! I really appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. I could tell Mason was happy, comfortable, and so well cared for the whole time. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter! :)”

River Oaks dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sarah was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Milo, during his two-night stay. She was caring, professional, and kept me updated throughout, which gave me great peace of mind. Milo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It’s obvious she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. I would not hesitate to leave Milo with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and exceptional dog sitter. Thank you, Sarah!
My little old man stayed with Mafalda for just two nights and I was amazed at how quickly he settled in. He practically had his own little vacation and I got lots of pictures and videos. I really hope that when I need a sitter again, Mafalda and her family will have a spot for him.

Thank you, Jessica for taking great care of Teddy! Your quick responses and daily pictures and updates made us feel very connected and assured that Teddy was in great hands. We would feel very comfortable to have you take care of Teddy again whenever we need to go away.

I left my two dogs with this sitter for 12 days, and it was my first time being away from my fur babies for so long and trusting anyone outside of my family. Maria made the entire experience so much easier and stress-free. I received daily photo updates, which really helped me feel connected to my dogs while I was away. She was very responsive and always replied in a timely manner. She was also flexible and easy to work with throughout the stay. I truly appreciated the care and attention she gave my dogs, and I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend

Anita was fantastic! Tully our King Charles cavalier spent nearly two weeks at Anitas place - she was well looked after and was happy in her care - the enclosed back yard was perfect for her along with the walks. We were updated with photos and fab communication. Would highly recommend Anita and we are very grateful.

Our girls spent 10 days with Camilla and her mom while we were out of the country and they were extremely well cared for! It was our second time they stayed with her and they were thrilled to be back. We got many photos of our pups enjoying the spacious backyard and making other doggy friends. Would absolutely have them stay again!

Heather was amazing with Cora! She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. Cora came home calm, happy, and clearly well cared for. She also got along great with Heather’s beautiful baby girl. I would absolutely trust Heather with Cora again and highly recommend her! 🐶💕

I was at ease from the moment I came across Laura’s profile! My dog is very attached and every picture she sent of her during her stay ensured me that she was well taken care of, and not missing me too much. Her & her husband were a delight, sharing pictures and updates throughout her weekend. Would definitely recommend to others, and would book again!

I’m still sitting in my parking spot after picking up Penny because I just had to write this review before driving away… that’s how blown away I am. This was my first time leaving her with Vadim and Anastasia, and they made the whole experience so easy. The photos and videos they sent throughout her stay were constant and genuinely heartwarming. Cuddles, treats, pets, etc. I never once had to wonder how she was doing. Their communication is also exceptional. I travel a lot for work so having found them is a life saver. 10/10 would recommend to anyone needing to leave their pups!

Petra was very attentive to our dog Lucy! She was very organized, sent lots of updates, and was able to get Lucy to take her meds even when she didn’t like some of them! Highly recommend her to take care of your pets! Her dogs Cookie and Yuri were also very sweet and got along fine with my 15 year old dog!
