“David was great with our two shihtzu boys. He sent quite a few updated over the 5 nights my boys spent at his place. He has a great home and yard for the fur babies. He was also quick to respond for a meet and greet.”
“Guinness loves coming here. He enjoys the other dogs in the house and the play time in the backyard. He always comes home exhausted from all the fun he’s had with Tonya.”
“From our initial meet and greet to pick-up, Aunt Patti made us feel like we were a valued part of her family. Patti is a pet parent dream. You instantly could tell how much she loves dogs. Well stocked with toys and treats, Patti made sure my pet felt at home. Patti asked all the right questions to make sure my pet would be following the same rules we've set at home. She also made sure her yard was safe and secure for a small dog. Garvey will be returning to Aunt Patti's soon!”
“Alisa went above and beyond to make sure my cat was comfortable and safely kept away from any other pet she was sitting. She was also able to give my cat her medication twice everyday with no issues. I was able to relax knowing my baby was well taken care of. I highly recommend booking with Alisa.”
“Angelique was fantastic! I got regular updates with photos and videos, and it was crystal clear that my dog, Arlo, had a great time with her. I will be booking with her again!”
“Cody, his family, and pup Freya took great care of Moxie. She was skittish being her first time away overnight, but they were patient with her and gave daily updates and pics. She loved playing with Freya& fetching balls. Their home and yard is safe and secure. We will definitely book Cody again when we are visiting out-of-state family near him.”
“Dawn was great! We got updated with pictures and video. Bella really enjoyed her time. I highly recommend Dawn and I will be reaching out to her on our next trip away. Thank you, Dawn 🐾”
“Paula is great. She provides a clean house, has expertise to keep order over the dogs, and has a great fenced yard. This was my first occasion boarding my beloved Bo, and was glad to be able to leave him in a place where he would get to hang with other good-natured dogs and have a yard to play for a change. Paula attended to our needs and my concerns. I wish she were closer for general "play dates", but if you are going to/from DTW, it's a very easy drop off and pick up.”
“Wonderful people! I couldn’t be happier that I found them. My dog is a rescuer and doesn’t like everyone. He immediately loved them and I trust them completely. They give the love and attention pet resorts do not give. I have no interest in even trying another sitter. They are perfect.”
“Shannon was very good with our dog. She kept us posted on how he was doing with posts through Rover and lots of pictures. I could tell our dog felt at home with her and we found her communication and service with our dog to be top notch!! We will definitely use her again. A+ and very grateful.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ George is a gem of a dog sitter! Leaving my pup in someone else’s care is never easy, but George made the entire experience feel seamless and safe. From the moment we met, his calm energy and genuine love for animals were obvious. He kept my dog’s routine intact, sent regular updates (including adorable photos!). What really stood out was how attuned George was to my dog’s emotional needs. She’s usually shy around new people, but she warmed up to him quickly and that speaks volumes. My flight was delayed many times, but he made sure that he was flexible and continued to take care of my dog until I was able to figure things out . I came home to a happy, relaxed pup and a clean home. I wouldn’t hesitate to book George again for all my future trips or recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter.”
“Lindsey was an incredibly caring and loving caregiver for my senior pug. She thoughtfully updated us with pictures and updates while we were away and she was very flexible with pickup and drop off times. So happy we found her. ♡”
“Vanessa was amazing! My reservation was super last-minute, and she was still able to accommodate me. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire stay — she sent daily updates and photos of my pup, which I really appreciated. My dog came home happy and calm, and it was clear he was well cared for. This was my first time using Rover, and Vanessa made the experience such a great one! I’ll definitely recommend her to my friends and family and will be booking with her again next time I need a sitter.”
“Omg (Z) was the best. This was my first time having to leave my son with a stranger. She treated him like her son, she walked him daily, sent pictures, she communicated properly, she let me know how he was reacting to the environment. Overall at 10 plus. I have found my new sitter. Thank you Z you’re great.”
“she was great! i could tell when i picked up my dog he grew a good bond with her and had a fun in her care. natalia was always responding as soon as i texted her and always gave me updates on kylo through pictures and texts. definitely will be booking with her again my next time away!”

Fantastic! From initial meeting and communication to the final pick-up, Jake operated with a tremendous level of quality and care. He asked detailed intelligent questions before drop-off to make sure everything went smoothly, sent daily pictures and updates, walked every day, and had a great time. Most professional sitter we have ever used on Rover, will absolutely be booking again. Thanks Jake!!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Riverview home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Riverview.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Riverview sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.
