“Our dog Bella was well cared for on her “vacation!” Dawn sent daily pictures or videos and we could see that our dog was having a great time! Bella was well cared for and loved by the whole family. Would definitely have Dawn watch Bella again!”


“Madeline is amazing! I have a new puppy (11 weeks old) who I boarded with her overnight. He was very comfortable and happy! She followed all instructions for potty training and feeding. He was very happy and had so much fun. I definitely will be using her again if I need a sitter. Thank you Madeline!”

“Virginia was an amazing Rover for our 2 dogs, Cleo and Louis! They seemed incredibly comfortable and loved in their few days with her. Virginia sent us photos and made sure to keep us updated on how they were doing.”

“Laura was absolutely amazing ! She will be cuties sitter going forward. This was my first time using a sitter service and Cuties first time being around someone other than me and my daughter. She was so welcoming. From the moment i came in her home i knew it was the fit. Cutie immediately felt comfortable. She took note of every single he liked and made a home away from home for him. She made she sure send pictures and videos through the day. I literally did not have to worry about his care with him. I am be pleased and so thankful ! I also needed to make last minute extensions for his care because i was in the middle of a move and Laura made it a priority to accommodate.”

“Jennette watch my sable for a week after meeting Jennette and family I felt that she would look after Sable and take care of her while I was away. She gave me an update while I was away ensuring me that I made the right choice. I pick up Sable once we return home, she was happy to be home. If ever we need to go on vacation again I will definitely ask Jennette to watch Sable again. Thank you I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing Sable was in good hands.”

“Fantastic experience! They took amazing care of Trey and kept me updated with great communication and photos. Trey seemed happy, comfortable and well cared for when I returned. I will definitely book again.”


“It was my first time away from my dog and I was very worried if he will be in good hands, but Tamika made sure to keep me updated and assure me! I’m definitely rebooking.”

“Samantha was great! Very knowledgeable about dogs. She sent me a picture of her daughter reading Milo a book. Adorable! She kept me updated about Milo and informed me of a health condition with Milo. Very much appreciated!”

“Lyly was very helpful and kind! I only needed her for a couple of hours and she was able to accommodate my last minute request to cat sit. She also offered to have my cat delivered back home to me which would have been super convenient. Definitely recommend!”

“Milissa is the best sitter ever. This was my second booking with her. My dog has separation anxiety. Milissa was able to manage her anxiety. To the point when I picked up my dog. She didn’t want to leave Milissa. I knew at that moment Milissa was the one who my dog would be spending time with.”

“Ilana was amazing with my 7-year-old tabby, Spinach. I just moved to the area and had to leave within a few days of arriving to go to a week-long conference. Ilana answered my booking request right away and was very friendly and responsive throughout our whole booking. I was scared to leave my cat for a week in a new place after a long weekend of travel, but Ilana eased both mine and Spinach’s anxiety with the situation! My cat is very anxious and does not warm up to strangers quickly. Ilana sent me photos/videos/updates every day, multiple times a day, to keep me updated on how it was going. This included updates anywhere from food intake and if she was eating, to her safe places in the house. She was also very attentive to Spinach’s needs, likes, and routines, and attended to them throughout her stay (e.g., pets and scratches, medication, etc.). She was also flexible when I needed to extend my booking for an additional day. Spinach loved Ilana and it was great seeing her get more and more comfortable during her stay. Ilana was a lifesaver and I definitely will be using her services anytime I need to make sure my cat has a safe, reliable, and loving space while I’m away!”

“Jayla too great care of my Gizmo. This was my first experience using Rover and I booked Jayla last minute for a overnight stay for my 14 yr old Shih tzu and she immediately accepted the request and took great care of my senior dog while I was away . I was comfortable and felt at ease while I was away. Jayla also sent me a photo update and quickly responded when I messaged her to ask how my dog was doing . I hope to book Jayla for future stays.”
“Lauren provided EXCELLENT boarding services for Rocky. From the meet and greet, drop off and pick up. She sent photos and communicated several times a day. I was totally relieved with Lauren. I almost felt guilty that I wasn’t worried.😂 I would use Lauren again with no hesitation!”

“Phenomenal dog sitter. I boarded my two dogs with Jeffrey for Christmas week. He provided updates and pictures each day in a consistent and clear manner. He took great care of my dogs, and my dogs always have fun with Jeffrey's dog, Lily. I will continue to hire Jeffrey as my main dog sitter for as long as possible.”

“Brittany took really good care of my pup. She was very responsive when I texted her to ask how he was doing. She cared for him like he was her own. My dog stops eating in new places but she mixed in some of her own wet food to make sure he wasn’t starving. Highly recommend her and would definitely be using her services in the future. She’s awesome!”

“Amy was fantastic - we instantly felt comfortable with her husband and her (and, more importantly, so did the dog!). She was very detail oriented, sent pictures throughout Champ's short stay and made sure Champ got plenty of exercise. I also appreciated her policy not to take multiple dogs at once. We will definitely be repeating with Amy - the whole experience was great!”

“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”


“Cindy was an exceptional dog sitter for Kobe. She is incredibly responsive, communicative, and detail-oriented, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. She took wonderful care of Kobe—walking him multiple times a day, playing with him, and even provide training. It was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being and happiness. Cindy also kept me consistently updated with pictures, videos, and messages throughout the day, which I really appreciated. You can tell she truly loves dogs, and it shows in the level of care she provides. I highly recommend Cindy—she did an amazing job!”

Riverside pet parents share their Rover experiences
Leanne and Mark were professional and so patient with our senior dog. Bailey seemed very comfortable with them during her long stay there. They took her for long walks and sent photos and updates on a regular basis. We would highly recommend Leanne and Mark and look forward to using them for future dog boarding.

Matt and Leanna took care of our two dogs for two days while we went away. Amazing is an understatement. The dogs were so comfortable and Matt went the extra mile by taking the dogs to a big park twice! They're still tired out which was relieving after traveling with two toddlers. We will absolutely contact them again when we need a dog sitter. Thank you so much!!
Craig took amazing care of our two pups while we travelled for the Christmas holiday. His place was absolutely perfect with the large back yard, and he also took them on many walks throughout the day. They had a great experience. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!

Randi was absolutely amazing! I always get nervous leaving Harper but she made me feel much better about everything. She kept me updated on how he was doing and sent pictures to ease my concerns. She was very attentive about keeping with our regular routines. I would highly recommend booking with her and definitely plan to book with her again in the future!
