“Definitely recommend trusting Max and his husband to watch your pup! Max was very quick to respond to our last second request for a dog boarding need and sent us multiple cute pics of our dog during her stay :)”



“This was my first time using rover and I can say the experience that I got was so good. Breanna did a good job of keeping me posted at all times and sending me pictures of my dog. This really eased my mind and made the time away from my dog easier.”



“Anna was great watching my boy, Glenwood. He is bouncy with a lot of energy and he came home happy and tired. Will definitely use her again in the future!”


“My pup had an awesome stay he told me he was treated great and wants to come back again to stay with Lisa and Brandon and their awesome kids!”


“Wonderful experience with a seasoned sitter. Mollie was introduced to me by Rover and lives nearby. It was great to work with her and she had a great demeanor with my dog. They had fun and I looked forward to daily updates and photos. I felt my dog was in great hands and she seemed at ease with Mollie and staying in her home.”


“Loved the updates I got from Dave throughout my dog’s stay. She came home tired and happy. Will definitely book again when we need a great dog sitter :) thank you!”


“Luke and Leia really enjoyed their stay with Karen. We were able to relax knowing they were both in good hands. We loved receiving all the pictures and updates on them daily. It’s very stressful finding people we feel comfortable leaving our pups with. We will definitely be using her again.”


“Was available when we had someone else cancel unexpectedly last minute with no call. She was so great with our dogs! Thank you so much for saving the day!”


“My puppy came back so happy and she was able to actually finish the food I packed for her! She rarely finishes the food I pack and only eats half so this was a nice surprise! Definitely will hire again”


“Cathy was amazing. Quick responses, updates throughout our pups stay and was super accommodating with our late pickup. Our pup was a happy boy on drop off and pickup. Would definitely use her service again.”


“Juan provided excellent care for my pup! I could trust that my pet was in great hands with the consistent updates and overall care. I was able to rest on my time away knowing my dog was on vacation too!”


“Justine and her family were so good and flexible watching my Nero. She sent pictures and updates, even though I was only gone for a night. I felt super safe knowing my pup was in good hands. Will definitely book again!”


“Amazing service! My pup was happy and taken care of while I had a full disconnect! So grateful for how flexible they are because it was my first time using the app and I was very nervous about pickup/drop off time. Will def visit again!”


“I am very cautious with my dog he is like my family. I met the person who was going to take care of Max and he was very helpful throughout the process. When it came time to take him i was so nervous but when I got t o the house it was so clean and safe I met his wife and his toddler he had ample room and he was fostering two puppies that were the same breed as my dog. I wasn't sure how the puppies would act but both the puppies and Max seemed to be okay with each other. This man really made me feel safe and he was very friendly. He is a very smart and well educated. We had some things in common and by the time I was leaving I felt as if I was leaving my dog with a member of my family. I felt really comfortable the whole time that Max was there. When I came to pick him up I was very impressed with how caring he was with my Max. I was surprised that he had bathed for me and said my dog was good. He is definitely the best person and animal lover I've ever met. I cannot put to words how happy I was with this gentleman I will always ask him in the future because he has integrity and went above and beyond. There is not enough space for me to adequately praise his service. He is by far the best I will never forget what he did for me and my dog. Thank you, thank you and thank you.”


“Felicia was an incredible sitter! Our pups were showered with love and care from her and her family. We truly appreciated the regular photo updates, such a thoughtful touch. Thank you so much! We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”



“Our dog had a wonderful time with Marti! It was his first time ever being away from us, but Marti was patient and in the end, the experience was great for everyone. Thank you so much for taking care of our Kernie!”


“Such a great cat sitter! My cat had a bunch of fun staying for the 10 days. Photos/videos everyday and letting me know how my cat was doing was so comforting! Also so great for being open to last minute booking!”


“Sthephanie agreed to meet at a dog park just for me to be sure she was the right fit for my dog. She is really sweet and gave my dog a lot of love and care during my absence. I really will book with her again!!!”



“Megan was able to watch our two dogs on very short notice and did a fantastic job! Our dogs have an absolute blast in her home. Megan is definitely our go to person anytime we have to go out of town! Very pleased.”


“Fernando is an amazing dog sitter! He is very professional, reliable, and always goes above and beyond. He keeps me updated with regular communication and sends the cutest pictures of my pups while I'm away. I always feel at ease knowing my dogs are in great hands. Highly recommend Fernando to anyone looking for top-notch pet care! I’m positive Tommy and Lucky will be looking forward to see him again!”

River Road dog parents share their Rover experiences
We couldn’t be more grateful for Max! He took such amazing care of our dogs, Max and Coco, while we were away. From daily updates and photos to thoughtful attention to their routines and personalities, Our pups were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved during their stay. Highly recommend Max to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter—we’ll definitely be booking with him again!
Felicia was fantastic. My dog felt an immediate connection to her and seemed he had a great time. Her and her kids are lovely. The location is very convenient as well.

Our dog LOVED his stay with Danielle and Josh! They were amazing with communicating with us. They sent pictures and videos multiple times a day. Our dog was well taken care of. We will plan to rebook with them in the future!

Shayla was amazing! Super flexible, and gave lots of fun updates during Winnie’s stay. I could tell Shayla had just as much fun watching Winnie as Winnie had playing with Shayla all weekend. Its nice to have someone trusted that cares for your dog the way you would 😊

Melissa was great! She responds quickly and sends us updates and photos throughout the weekend. We hope to use her services again! Thank you!

Marina was a great dog sitter for Tenshi ☺️ I’m very happy with her services and would definitely book her again! She is sweet and I could tell really enjoyed spending time with my dog while I was away for 4 days. She kept me updated, sent me text updates, photos, videos and we even FaceTimed so that I could talk to my dog. Normally, my dog cries when he’s been away from me and sees me again but when I picked him up, he seemed happy to see me but comfortable enough with Marina to where he wasn’t anxious about me being away. I really appreciate the care Marina put towards making Tenshi and I feel comfortable during this dog-sitting appointment.

Vanessa always does an amazing job with our fur baby. We have used her several times. Although we like to use house sitters, she boards our baby, and it works out very well. Thanks Vanessa!
