“Natalie and Edward took great care of Buju. They sent pictures daily and were easy to communicate with throughout Buju’s stay with their family. From what I could tell, our dog was treated as their own and he was safe and happy at pick up.”


“I had an excellent experience with Kerri as my dog’s sitter! From the moment I reached out, she was responsive, friendly, and professional. Blanca immediately warmed up to her, and it felt like she was right at home. Throughout the stay, Kerri sent regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Blanca returned home happy and well-cared for, and it was clear that she had enjoyed her time with Kerri—she even seemed a bit sad to leave! I highly recommend Kerri to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again for future trips.”


“Lilian is an extremely excellent dog sitter. I'm so happy to have found her so my dog Ace could be in good hands. She has a large yard for them to run around in. And there's plenty of room inside for them too. I definitely found a great person.”


“We had an excellent experience and so did our cat. I especially appreciated the easy drop off and quick pick up, plus the daily pics and updates, and everything went so well. It was great! I will certainly rebook for the next time.”


“Our dog recently stayed with Yi for over a week. We received lots of photos of her each day and knew that she was in great hands. She looked like she loved playing with all the other dogs but at the same time got a lot of human love too. Yi really gets to know the unique personality of each dog and all of their lovable traits. Knowing Yi takes such good care makes it easier to think about going away in the future. We will definitely have our dog stay with her again! We could not have been more pleased and at ease!”


“Jenny was an absolute delight! It was my first time using this service and I was nervous about a stranger watching my sweet baby boy. Jenny put me at ease instantly and reassured me enough to where I felt comfortable with her watching Mochi. Her communication was absolutely superb! Jenny positive vibes and very sweet. I appreciated her services for my sweet baby boy. If you need an awesome sitter Jenny is your go to!!!!! 🤗😍”


“Ana looked after our dog for 3 nights and 4 days. This was Jack’s longest stay away from us. I was so nervous to leave him, and Ana gave many updates and made me feel sure that Jack was happy and safe. I am so thankful for her care and love towards my dog so I can leave the state and know my dog is in good hands.”


“Jenny was such a great sitter! Before we left our dog with her, she took the time to speak with me over the phone to discuss our dog’s preferences, routine, and behaviors. I could instantly tell how thoughtful she was about caring for other people’s animals. She provided regular updates and photos. I would definitely leave Luna with her again in the future.”


“Erica did a great job with our energetic bernadoodle Frances. She got Frances out to play a lot at the dog park and she sent us pics and videos every day. Thanks Erica!”


“Coco had such a wonderful time with Mansi and her new friend Momo. Mansi was great up keeping us updated and sending pics of all the things Coco was doing. It is clear to me that she was in good hands and loved while we were out of town.”


“Huron and Elise took amazing care of my two dogs. I felt completely at ease while traveling as Elise kept me updated frequently with photos and shared what activities they did and how their day went in general. I would highly recommend them and look forward to booking with them again. My doggies give them 5 stars. ? ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


“Rong was fantastic! She communicated regularly and Ralphie came home happy. I can’t ask for much more than that! Her dog, Lucky, is also a sweetheart and made a good companion for my dog.”


“Our little guy stayed with Ben for 5 nights and came home happy! He even went back to Ben to say goodbye before getting into the car! We received many pictures and videos while we were away and Ben is always responsive to communication. Thanks, Ben!”



“Carlos was a great host for my minature poodle---a last minute reservation at that. The meet and greet put us both at ease. There was a very large back yard for the dogs to explore and no crating at night (a must for our dog). An unexpected surprise was that Carlos picked my dog up from my house which saved me a trip while preparing for my trip. He sent pictures several times during the stay which was much appreciated by me and my family. When we returned, Carlos brought my dog back to my home sice he was going to be in the area---another unexpected bonus. A great experience and one we will repeat when needed.”

“Chris took excellent care of our 5 month old puppy. Gave him lots of affection and attention while we were gone for a week. Chris did a great job sending us photos and videos every day and keeping us updated on our puppy. Hot week in dc and took great care to keep our puppy cool and hydrated. Thank you Chris!”


“Jorge was great with our dog and met us before the booking to ensure it would be a good fit. He did a great job in creating a comfortable environment and giving our dog lots of walks, treats, and care.”

Rockville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Courtney was great! She was very kind and helpful with our dog and made us feel very reassured that our dog was in best care. Our dog mochi seems very happy and well cared for when we went to pick her up. Courtney stayed in constant touch with us by sending us pictures of mochi playing and eating. We will definitely use her again in future.

Ben is fabulous and my dogs have a great time in his care.i know there will be no issues with my dogs getting their meds and he makes sure my extremely timid mini poodle is completely comfortable around other dogs he might be watching at the same time. Would highly recommend using him to watch your fur baby. He gives me peace of mind!

Ms Chao provided excellent care for our senior kitty. The almost daily pics showed our kitty laying by Ms Chao as she worked, freely exploring the house and hanging out with the cat hosts. AND when our Auto Train return was cancelled, Ms. Chao was flexible when adjusting the pickup time. The best!

Min hosted my dog Theo for a day of daycare. Theo had a great time! Min sent pics and updates and Theo seemed happy as a clam. Min was very communicative and asked all the right questions about my dog’s preferences and behavior. I’m looking forward to booking him again for our next trip away.

Shasta is a wonderful pet sitter! We are so happy to have found her! She is very warm and friendly and took excellent care of our dog Ruby. Shasta was great at communicating with us, we got updates and photos every day. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip knowing Ruby was well cared for. We would definitely recommend Shasta and will rebook with her again.

Jorge and his family were wonderful and we are so lucky to have found them. They watched our reactive dog for two weeks and their professionalism, care, regular updates, and pictures/videos gave us a lot of peace mind while we were away. Would 100% recommend and rebook again!

Katherin is/was amazing! We had two sets of dates, with only a few days in between, where we would be traveling outside the country. Being away from our babies for over two weeks is stressful enough and being that far away makes it even more so. But having Katherin to take care of them really put us at ease. And I think the best review was from the dogs who were VERY excited to be back at Katherin's when we dropped them off for the second set of dates. They came back happy and healthy. We got pictures and updates. Katherin was communicative and responded to our texts. She is great and we will leave our babies with her again in the future.
