“Linda was amazing! She was able to accommodate my dog very last minute, which I truly appreciated. She was very kind and made sure my dog was comfortable and well cared for throughout her stay. She took her on multiple walks each day and kept me updated, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and Linda made the experience so much easier than I expected. I could tell that she genuinely cared about making sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I’m very grateful for the care she provided and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their dog!”

“Gabriel treated our dog like his own. He took him out for many walks per day and my dog loved playing with his cute little one! He was super communicative and sent us updates every day. We won't hesitate to book with Gabriel again.”

“Kayla was awesome ! Her communication was out of this world . My babygirl 🐶 really enjoyed her staycation . I’ll definitely book again — and if you’re considering booking with Kayla don’t hesitate!”

“Sarah, Dan and their girls were amazing! Badger loves children and had a ball. They provided pictures during the stay which helped calm our nerves. We noticed he was exhausted when he got home which is a good sign. We would definitely use them again.”

“This was our first time using Rover. We had last minute work done in our house where the cats had to be gone. Aidan and Dani were amazingly patient with our four cats who have quite unique personalities.”

“Andrew and Taylor were amazing with Ella! They gave us thorough updates, asked great questions, and gave Ella lots of love! We felt confident and at ease knowing Ella was in great hands. We would definitely re-book again!”


“Auria did a great job taking care of our 7 month old lab puppy. It was the first time we had used a service like this and were a little nervous, but Auria did a wonderful job communicating with us and sending pictures to update us during our dog's stay with her. Our dog also had a great time playing with Auria's dogs - as a puppy I think this worked out particularly well as our dog was able to get more time socializing with other dogs than she does as an only dog at home. We would not hesitate to use Auria again for a homestay!”

“Sonja took great care of my baby. She sent photos and messages to let me know how he was doing. Her communication was excellent and she was very easy to work with.”


“Cindy has the perfect set up for our very social pups! There are always fun dogs to play with and be active around. Our pups love going there, and we are so lucky to have found Cindy!”

“Mitchell did a great job with my dog Cody! He sent lots of photos and updates. I know Cody had a great time because he came back very tired! I highly recommend Mitchell and I definitely will be booking with him again in the future!”

“Kelli was amazing with my dog Dusty!! She sent frequent updates throughout my time away and made me feel very comfortable through the whole process. My dog definitely loved spending time with her. Would highly recommend Kelli and will definitely be using her services again!”

“Mary is the best!!! She’s taken care of our pup many times and she’s our go-to sitter. We always get lots of pictures of their walks and adventures and we can tell our dog loves being with her! Highly recommend Mary for pet care!!”

About: Hi! My name is Nikki! I am a yoga, travel, and pet lover! I have years of experience fostering dogs and cats in the past. I have fostered special needs cats and dogs and do have experience in that area. My last experience was fostering a beautiful one eyed special needs pup who got adopted within weeks! I can't wait to start meeting new furry friends! I have a very flexible schedule! I am home all day as I work remote in Human Resources. I am available all day and have a very flexible schedule for last minute needs. I know that things come up with busy schedules and I am very accommodating for those last minute emergencies. I am home all day working and am available for frequent potty breaks or walks. I am very active as well and don’t mind longer walks with active dogs. I am available for walks or visits in a home. I’m also available for day care/boarding with my wonderful cockapoo - Johnny, who loves all animals. Open to bed cuddles if needed!
“I would highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for pet care!! She was communicative, professional and flexible, and Melo loved her from the start! She was open to all of the needs I requested and made sure Melo got the care he needed the entire stay. She even went out of her way for our meet and greet which was super appreciated! She sent updates and photos during the stay and I felt 100% comfortable knowing Melo was in good hands. Will definitely book again!”

About: Hi! I work mostly remotely, and have a big love for pets! I am also a painter and a muralist (you’ll see my dog, Mouse in front of a couple murals). Currently I do not have a pet, but have always had dogs growing up (mostly labs and poodle mixes). I'm very active and love to take walks and runs and frequently practice yoga (sometimes at home). Currently I have plenty of time to care for a pup and have dogsat for many of my friends's pets. Your dog will be well cared for and loved and pretty much, just by my side! I lost my dog a few years ago and he was the best companion ever. Definitely will always have a soft spot for frenchies. ❤️ I am usually working remotely, so I have flexibility in terms of dog walking and boarding. I am happy to pop in to walk your dog, board them with me or stay at your home. I have plenty of space in a warehouse loft/elevator building. There are other friendly dogs in this building. I live downtown so I’m happy to walk the dog to the lake, less than a mile away and through the third ward. I typically end up going for walks along the lake. I’m happy to go for a walk for any amount of time.
“Maggie was a wonderful and attentive sitter for our dog, Bolo! She has cared for Bolo twice and he was excited to see her on the 2nd round. She clearly cares about the pets she sits for, and she asked about everything I could have thought related to Bolo's care. Maggie sent updates while we were gone, and we quickly built trust with her. She was easy to work with and flexible with pick-up and drop off time changes too! I will be asking her to pet sit for us again soon!”

“We used Rover for the first time and couldn’t be happier with Teri. She watched our dog Ranger and gave us daily updates with pictures, which was a huge relief compared to the kennel we used to use. Ranger was clearly well cared for, and the whole experience was smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend Teri!”

“Katrina was amazing with my dog Cannoli! She’s very knowledgeable and kind, and makes sure all the dogs in her home are comfortable and happy. I’d confidently book her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rufus King
Reptar had a great time with Emily. We met outside of her apartment, Reptar (an anxious dog) was initially a little reactive from the busyness of street and all the people walking nearby but when he saw Emily, he was quick to calmly warm up to her. Reptar wasted no time exploring her apartment as I set up his crate, Emily had no problem with him jumping up on her couch (appreciate that for him). Emily sent check ins throughout the overnight stay to let me know he was settling in and how he was doing. Upon pick up, she had him all set outside of her apartment when I arrived, allowing for a smooth transition.

My anxious dog settled in beautifully with Frank and his two little dogs, allowing me to enjoy a worry-free two week vacation. Frank sent updates with photos which greatly reassured me that all was going even better than hoped. Honey clearly enjoyed a relaxing time with Frank in his home and made new friends with his dogs. I highly recommend Frank and would not hesitate to rebook with him!

Devashi was amazing with our pup, Fuji! She was so gentle and kind with Fuji, who is typically a nervous and shy dog. She sent us photos and updates, and when we picked her up, she was so happy and smiley. I know Fuji is looking forward to her next visit with Devashi.
