“Juan was a great sitter. Quick replies and sent me updates. I made a mistake with the booking dates and he was very understanding. I will definitely leave my baby with him again.”

“Carrigan was very easy to deal with and communicated clearly. My dog seemed to have had a good time at their sleep over. I would definitely have her take care of Selena again.”

“Stephanie was awesome! Very responsive and kept me updated on Dozer throughout the day. She took him on several walks and sent great pictures. Will be booking her again!”

“Irene was awesome, very good vibes, a peaceful home setting & my Shih Tzu loved staying with her, playing in her big enclosed yard & going on walks with her, etc. while we were on our family cruise. My fur baby was in good hands with her & I'll definitely board her with Irene the next time we go away!”

“Kya had the best time with Tina and Troy! Tina gave her the best care and sent pictures and videos of her having the best stay! Thank you so much for making sure Kya had a great stay and for making us feel so comfortable! 10/10 Recommend!”

“Denise watched my dog Paddy for over a week while he was recovering from Lyme’s. She was very friendly, kind and assuring during this period. She also communicated with me daily and sent updates and pictures. I would highly recommend.”


“I was so fortunate to have found Anastasiia to watch our dog Axel when we traveled to Europe. We had booked a sitter who cancelled - leaving us with very little time to find another over the holiday season. We had Anastasiia was reasonably priced compared to some of the other sitters available (watch out for price gouging during the holidays). I had booked someone who was less expensive but when we did the meet and great, I saw that they were using Rover to run a kennel: 10 dogs kept in an 8x6 garage - with no one home! I took a chance on Anastasiia because she is new to Rover. When I met her in her home, I could tell right away that Axel would be in good hands! The home is charming and so was Anastasiia's partner :-). During Axel's stay he got to go to the park and play and even got to go on a hike. Anastasiia asked me if it was ok to take him and how he was in the car. The pictures of their adventure made me smile :-). I was sent lots of pictures during Axel's stay - most either playing or lounging lol Axel was in good spirits when we picked him up. I felt comfortable and confident that my family member was being given good care while we were overseas. I highly recommend.”

“Katherine was great! Start to finish. Very accommodating, She really put these first time boarders at ease, this continued throughout our trip with her sending daily updates & pics! Will definitely be using her again!”

“Goldie loved staying with Benan, Justin and Bella!! She was so comfortable with them. Benan updated me with pictures throughout her stay and Justin gave me a full report when I picked her up from a weekend stay. Cannot wait to bring Goldie back for a visit!”

“Ivon took great care of our dog. She walked the dog every day and sent us pictures and messages about how the dog was doing. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dog while we were apart. I hope we can ask for your help again next time!”

“Frank is the best! Always willing to help. I own a yellow lab with food allergies and he takes medication every day. Frank took good care of my dog with lots of attention and love!”
About: I’ve walked dogs and pet-sat for neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve cared for two dogs and a cat of my own. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, and playtime, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m happy to follow any special instructions or routines to keep pets safe and happy. I’m pretty much free most days since I only work part-time some afternoons. That means I have lots of time to hang out with pets, whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just sitting with them while you’re away. I’m flexible and can usually work around your schedule, so if you need help last-minute or regularly, just let me know. I have a big house with plenty of space for pets to relax and feel comfortable. There’s a fenced yard where they can safely play and explore without any worries. My home is on a quiet dead-end street, which makes for peaceful, low-stress walks nearby, and I’m also really close to a park for longer walks and fresh air. I already keep dog food on hand for my own dog, so feeding is easy to manage. I have a friendly dog who’s used to other animals, and if your dog needs some quiet time, I can crate them safely as well. I always follow each pet’s routine and make sure they get lots of attention.
“Excellent. Will hire Ariel again. Pleasant and capable, she followed all care instructions to a tee for my 17 yr old dog. Responsive to all communications and kept me up to date on his well being, which I'm skitzo about because of his age.”

“Justin appears to be an excellent pet caretaker. He is dependable and efficient. He was readily available to accommodate my schedule on short notice. His rates are reasonable for the services he provides. Thanks Justin!”

About: I have been watching dogs since the age of seven I like going for a long walks in the park, training exercises and bringing my dog to lunch with me I have a very flexible schedule. I work from home and around throughout the entire day Sunday through Saturday available all day holidays as well. I have a fence yard perfect for dogs. The dogs can run in the yard or there is a park two blocks over from the house where I take the dogs on walks.
“Sydney was absolutely fantastic while watching Bella for five days. Sydney provided regular updates, asked helpful questions, and was incredibly accommodating and helpful when dealing with unexpected issues at the end of my trip. It was also clear that Bella really loved her. I could not say enough nice things about Sydney and would enthusiastically recommend her!”

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and I couldn’t imagine it any other way. Spending time with animals is my happy place and nothing brings me more joy than caring for and playing with them. I have a great deal of experience taking care of many dogs of various breeds and sizes. I currently have the flexibility to fully dedicate myself to what I would call my dream job which is working with animals. I can go on long or short walks and have an enclosed dog park around my area. I have taken care of dogs with medical problems and have experience giving dogs medicine such as eye drops and pills. I am a quick learner when it comes to the specific conditions the owner has for their dog .
Riverside pet parents share their Rover experiences
Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so nice to see him looking relaxed and completely at home with her. Everything went so smoothly from drop-off to pick-up. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!

Kevin was enthusiastic & held the reins well, in acting as a surrogate for me, in the care of my lil Pup, who I adore! When I picked him up from his overnight stay… he returned happy, healthy & safe & sound! I also loved the pics he sent me. If needed again in the future, Kevin would be my “go to” caretaker for my Pup!

My dog Pote had the best time boarding with Nicoly and her partner. I could tell absolutely nothing was missed and he was happy with them. He got comfortable to their apartment, they made him feel just like home following his routine. She kept me up to date with messages and photos. You can tell she absolutely loves dogs and is very attentive about their quirks and personality 😊

Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!

Darline took great care of our Mini Aussie (Bentley) while we were away. She provided regular updates and photos while also making sure he was safe and having fun during his stay! It looks like he had more fun than he even has at home! Look forward to booking with Darline again.

Sarah was super friendly and available on short notice, which we really appreciated. We recently moved to the U.S., so our dog is still adjusting to all the new surroundings and changes. Sarah kept me updated and let me know that he was quite restless, and she really tried to understand him and respond to his needs. I’m grateful for her patience and care!

Claire was wonderful hosting my little Yorkie for two full days while I was away. He was in great hands!! She was caring, loving and super patient with him. I received very detailed updates about his stay and he was super relaxed when getting back home. Thank you so much Claire! 🐾

We are super happy with Katherine! She took care of our dog Maxi for a weekend, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent us regular photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Maxi was well cared for and felt comfortable with her. Katherine is incredibly friendly, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I can highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

This was my first time using Rover and my first time leaving Troy with someone and LisaLeigh made the whole process really easy! She kept me updated throughout the weekend and took great care of him. Troy came home happy and tired, which is all I could ask for. I really appreciated how smooth everything went and how flexible LisaLeigh was with the early pickup and drop off time. Will definitely book with her again for next trips out of town!

Samantha was amazing!! Not only was she extremely accommodating to last-minute schedule changes, Marnie loved her time with her! Samantha sent consistent photos, was very quick to reply to any messages, and was extremely welcoming - which put Marnie right as ease. We picked up a smiling and happy dog!!
