“Alyson is truly amazing! She gave us updates regularly and I felt so happy knowing our dog was in a loving place! Our dog was the happiest she’s ever been after picking her up from a sitter, so I know she was really well cared for! Will definitely plan to use Alyson again for sitting!”
“Anna is absolutely our dream sitter for our very playful and energetic border collie, Atlas. She and her husband gave Atlas so much love and attention everyday. Anna voluntarily sent us many lovely photos and videos of our pup as well as detailed updates daily. They loved Atlas as if she was their own, and we could tell how happy Atlas was staying with them. We felt at ease every day knowing that Atlas was under the care of such a wonderful and caring couple. We believe Atlas was on her own vacation! Thank you again. Atlas cannot wait to see them again. 😄”
“Alix was absolutely amazing and I am so thankful I chose her to watch Clark for the weekend! She was so flexible and responsive. I booked her very last minute but she had no problem taking Clark in and watching him! She sent amazing updates throughout the weekend so I always knew how Clark was doing. She went above and beyond for Clark and when I picked him up he was the happiest pup ever! Will definitely be booking with Alix again!!!”

Roslindale dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our very shy dog did great with Alana! She stayed for 3 nights and everything went well. Alana is easy to work with, tried to get Dori to walk (easier said than done), and was very communicative. She has a great yard for running around and even let Dori hang out on the couch with her. Will be rebooking!!
Justine and her partner took great care of our pup Nike - they followed all of our instructions and sent lots of photos and updates. Nike settled in and was comfortable right away. They were also super flexible in letting us schedule a very last-minute dog-sit. I would highly recommend Justine for any dog sitting needs!
Yanira was a great sitter. She followed our instructions. She took plenty of pictures and provided updates. She even got our dog a puzzle toy to help with boredom. In addition, all our stuff was packed and ready to go when we got there. Lastly, our dog seemed to really enjoy her time with Yanira. We would definitely recommend her.
Lyv and Alieu were amazing! It was Monty's first Rover experience/first time staying overnight with new people, and he's still adapting to life outside the shelter, so naturally, we were a bit nervous. Lyv was very communicative the entire weekend, and it was very apparent that they have a ton of experience with all types of dogs. Monty is very finicky, and we know he can be a difficult house guest at times, but it was clear that Lyv adapted quickly to his needs and read his emotions very well. Monty had a bit of a tough time one night, but Lyv communicated with me immediately and was so kind and understanding about his less-than-ideal behavior. As a first-time dog mom with an anxious dog who is still exhibiting new behaviors randomly, I really appreciated Lyv's kindness, care, and compassion.
Nalix is amazing with our dog Charcoal, who is usually very sensitive and has separation anxiety. We trust her completely and Nalix sends regular photos and videos in which Charcoal is having the best time. Nalix is always communicative and willing to be flexible if we are running late from delayed flights or traffic. We recommend Nalix wholeheartedly!
Deb was absolutely amazing with Bear while we were away for 10 days. He was so content and happy and well-fed and exercised. She creates a very loving environment for fur babies. When I picked up Bear after our time away, I could tell how much she cared for him by the way made sure to say goodbye to her. 25/10 for Deb and I would 100% leave our dog with her again.
We cannot say enough nice things about Maggie. She was so kind and welcoming to our lovely dog, who takes a little while to warm up to people. Now our dog loves her and looks so comfortable in her house. She sent us the perfect amount of updates while we were gone, which allowed us to enjoy our time away. Highly recommend!
