“Maria and Nayibe are exceptional dog sitters! They took care of Onyx with so much attention and love, carefully following all my instructions and asking thoughtful questions when needed. I received regular updates, which gave me complete peace of mind. Their home is spotless, and the fully fenced backyard is a fantastic bonus for safe playtime. Onyx came home happy and relaxed. I’ll definitely be returning, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet sitters!”


“Excellent caregiver! Michelle took care of our nervous, shy small dog for 5 days. He had plenty of exercise, cuddles, and caring support. She sent pictures and updates a few times each day and was a great communicator. We will book with Michelle next time we need a sitter and we highly recommend her.”


“I just picked up Mochi from her first stay with Yolanda. My pooch is tired and happy! Yolanda obviously has a ton of experience managing a group of dogs. All of her furry guests seemed relaxed and at home. Sooooooo grateful to have discovered such a generous caregiver : )”


“Words cannot express how wonderful Kathy and Brad are as dog sitters! We left our pup with them for the first time and got wonderful picture updates and knew she was in great hands and we didn’t worry about her one bit. Thank you again!!!!”


“She is absolutely the best sitter I’ve used. Her children and her dogs were perfect for Zoe. She has a large fenced yard giving Zoe lots of room to play. I think Zoe thinks I’m totally boring now. LOL I’m so grateful Rebecca sent me updates and pictures. She’s the best!”


“They treated Coco like a member of the family. Gave daily updates with pictures. She did not show the typical signs of stress when she was boarded in the past. Highly recommend!”


“Michelle made me and my pups feel comfortable instantly! She was so professional and also sent me a ton a cute photos which made me miss my pups a lot less while away.”


“I had an excellent experience with Ashlee. My dog Sinchi was clearly happy and well cared for during my time away. Ashlee was very communicative and sent updates while. I also really appreciated how flexible they were in accommodating my request on such short notice. It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. Will definitely book again!”


“Kris. Thank you for taking care of Lulo 🥇 , It makes it easier to be away during our vacations knowing someone is caring him the same way we would! Kris is a wonderful pet sitter who took excellent care of our dog , She is very warm and friendly, So very pleased with her service!”



“Words can not express my deep gratitude for the process, care and love Dan and Holly had for my pup Precious. They really provided a home away from home. I will definitely choose them again as sitters.”


“Daniel did a great job watching Buddy for us!! He gave Buddy great exercise and all the snuggles. Will absolutely go to Daniel whenever we need a caregiver for Buddy 😁 🐕”


“This was my first time using Rover and I could not be happier! Dawn and her husband were wonderful sitters. My dog, Jax, was obviously comfortable within minutes of walking in the house. Through out his stay Dawn would send pictures so I could see for myself how ‘chilled’ Jax was. I highly recommend Dawn and would definitely leave Jax in her care again.”


“Kim did such a wonderful job caring for my pup, even when he was a bit hard to handle right away. She was communicative and transparent and worked hard to make sure that he was active, comfortable, and well-loved. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services.”



“I can't imagine a better place to take my pup when I go on vacation. MJ and his wife paid such great attention to Leo and his habits, and ensure that he was happy and healthy during his stay, as well as helped him acclimate to their family - I think this is the least anxious I have seen Leo without me, especially after such a long time away! I will for sure rebook in the future!”


“We couldn't be happier with Sarah! Her and her family were incredibly reliable, warm & welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure Moose was comfortable and well-cared for. When our flight was changed last minute, Sarah was understanding and flexible. We appreciated the daily updates and so many amazing photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy Moose was during his stay. We highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! We will absolutely be rebooking for our next vacation.”


“Lizzy was an awesome dog sitter for our dog Lucy while we were away! Lucy got way more attention, fun adventures, dog park visits, and fun with doggy friends than she normally does at home and looked so happy and comfortable in the daily updates Lizzy would send to us. We would absolutely have Lizzy watch our dog again in the future and be assured she was well taken care of. Additionally, Lizzy was open to a very early dropoff time when we were leaving for our trip, which was very helpful!”

“Caitlin was very helpful with a last minute sit request and had very quick response time. She took great care of my puppy and kept him happy and busy the whole time. She sent updates throughout the day letting me know how things were going. Will definitely book with her again and would recommend her to others!”

Saint Joseph dog parents share their Rover experiences
Leaving Zooey for the first time was very eased by knowing she was in Krystal’s care. The daily updates and photos confirmed how happy she was, and she has made permanent friends with Krystal’s two very sweet pups. It was a perfect environment for our girl, with lots of playtime and loving attention from a very caring and responsible sitter. We are so happy we found Krystal!

Tracie is a considerate and conscientious caregiver for my two older Pugs. My girls need various Eye Drops, special diet and medication’s. Tracie took good care of them and made sure that they were happy and safe. I would definitely use her again for future pet care. One thing to keep in mind is that Tracie owns a fearful dog who is uncomfortable with people visiting the house. So I was not able to see her home; I simply had to drop my girls off and pick them up in the front of her house. Everything was fine.

I couldn’t imagine a better pet sitter! We had such a great experience with Bridget. Our puppy is high energy and untrained. Bridget was understanding and patient. She went above and beyond to make sure he’d be comfortable at her house. And I got lots of updates throughout the week. 100% would request Bridget again! Thank you so much!

Cassie was really kind and took great care of our pup! She gave us daily updates and a photo of how he was doing, and it was clear that he had been well tended to when we came home. Definitely reassuring to us knowing he was in good hands, especially while out of town. Only hiccup we encountered were some communication issues at the beginning. One reason we booked Cassie was based on her listed location being so close to our home, which was perfect for the travel plans we were making and coordinating with other travelers. But when she sent us her address a few days ahead of dropoff, she was actually located 45 minutes away from our home and not at the location she had listed on her profile, and it caused some stress, because when we found out her address it was too late to find another sitter and we simply had to rearrange our whole itinerary for the day of travel and dog drop-off. On my way to drop our pup off she sent a message saying she thought drop off was in the evening, not morning, and she said she was at work, which caused further stress. Fortunately her boyfriend was home and able to take our dog at the planned time (which we had indeed booked for the morning—she probably mixed up a.m. versus p.m.—those details matter!) Overall we would recommend Cassie for the good care our dog received, her updates provided throughout his stay, her reasonable prices, and generally a really positive experience. He clearly had a good time with her care and it was reassuring knowing he was well tended to while we were gone. We would just recommend double checking details on dropoff times and locations well in advance in order to avoid last minute stress and logistical frustrations!
