“It’s always tough to leave our dog at a new place with a new person, but Alyssa made it easy and comforting :). Appreciated the check-ins and pictures too! Thank you for looking after Juno and she looks forward to seeing you again!”
“Cindy was the best rover Apollo has visited. She was super easy to contact, helpful with updates and even helped me w some training tips. Apollo didn’t want to go home after - will definitely contact again”
“It was our first time using Rover, and our first time leaving Juniper with someone who wasn't family, friend or vets - and we could not have been luckier to find Tara. She communicated well, sent plenty of pictures and updates and made everything flawless. We had to switch our drop-off time and she was so nice about it. Everything was simple and it all turned out great! I could not recommend her more!”
“Kevin was great with our highly energetic dog, Archie! He was very communicative day to day! Archie spent 4 days having the time of his life on the homestead and came home dirty, tired and happy. If we’re ever in the area again, or if we were living there, they would be our go to! Thanks again!”
“Hope is excellent and our first experience on Rover, she exceeded our expectations and gave our dog a loving and caring experience. Our dog stayed with her overnight the week after Christmas. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I made a last minute request for care and Hope made the entire process simple. We were from out of town skiing at a nearby resort. Hope was generous with her time and care for our treasured Potato. We will use Hope again when we return for another ski week. I was very happy with our experience and our dog Potato had a great time playing at Hope’s house. We were lucky to find her!”
“Tom all around is an outstanding individual, great person all around, will treat your pet with the best care you could ask for, as a current law enforcement officer, I trust him like he’s a fellow officer, I HIGHLY recommend anyone to hire Tom as their dog sitter. 10/10”
“Sadie was absolutely wonderful. I was very nervous leaving my pup August and she was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and August came home happy and healthy. I would highly recommend Sadie to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter for their fur baby.”
“Sarah, Ben and Bean are the BEST. Attie had the most incredible time playing with Bean and I loved the updates and pictures. Sarah knew how nervous I felt leaving him for nearly 3 weeks and was so considerate and kind. Attie came home tired and he seems like he misses Bean and Sarah already. Love that we have found such an incredible family to leave Attie with when we are away ❤️”
About: My 3 year old golden retriever LOVES other dogs as do I. We love to to have other dogs share our home for playtime and cuddles while their pet parents are away. I travel often and know how much more enjoyable my time away is when I know my golden girl is being cared for the way I would care for her. I strive to provide the same for my furry guests! I work outside of the home during Monday through Thursday for 8 hours a day but I am home all day on the the weekends. We are happy being homebodies and playing in the fenced in backyard or going out for a hike. We even have 40 acres close by with a cabin, river and hiking trails that is super fun for the dogs!
“Kaitlin I see the best dog sitter we could have asked for. She took care of our dog Zoey as if she was her own. Lots of walks and playing in the park. I don't think I've seen her have that much fun with someone other than us before. She also sent lots of pictures and kept us updated on how she was doing everyday. We would give her 10 stars if we could! Definitely going to call her up the next time we need a sitter. Your dog will be in good hands with Kaitlin and her son.”
“Richard and Hope took great care of Betty; lots of outdoor time and playing with children. They obviously LOVE dogs and make them part of their family! If I’m back in their ar3a, Betty is definitely staying with them again!”
“We had a great experience with Desiree. Our husky Kona stayed with her for a couple days and was absolutely exhausted from all the fun! Desiree sent us daily photos of our dog and was very flexible with our pickup/ drop off timing.”
About: There was not a single day in my life that I was not surrounded by dogs. No matter which house we lived in, I was always greeted after school by one, two or three dogs. Before moving for university, my mother and I began fostering puppies for two weeks at time. We would wake up at 4am when we heard them squealing, stay up late making sure they could have the latest potty break possible for hopes of maybe sleeping in the next day, and even build a pen in our backyard to allow for endless playtime together. Due to these numerous pups we cared for, my dogsitting popularity skyrocketed in our neighborhood. I was being called upon every other week to care for my neighbors cats, dogs, and once even a chinchilla. Now, I hope to provide the same service and be there for your cutest friends when life simply gets in the way. I don't mind the -20 degree weather if it means going for a nice brisk walk with your dogs.
“Laura and her family and dog Brody were so friendly and welcoming to our Polly! She had a wonderful stay there. Laura sent us a few pictures along the way which was very much appreciated.”

“Jessica has taken care of our Golden Retriever on several occasions. She treats him like hers and he is integrated in the household daily routine. With a clean large fenced yard, there is ample opportunity to exercise and play with others; something he enjoys so much. She has kept us updated with pics of him playing, snuggling, and just being foolish. He comes home in good spirits and healthy. Our trips are always stress-free when we know that he is in her good hands!”

Beatrice H.Star Sitter
“Beatrice D, a neighbor of ours for many years, has been our wonderful, faithful, trusty dog walker for our Scottish terrier, Angus. She has taken care of Angus for probably about 4 years, walking him, feeding him and just generally filling in whenever we need her. We have gone away for several days and Bea has made sure that Ang was walked, fed and played with, right in our own home. I have never met a more responsible, dog-loving young woman! I can heartily endorse Bea as a future employee of Rover—she’s THE BEST! Hilary Jones”
