“We can't say enough good things about Savanah, she took excellent care of our pup!! She was very communicative and so good at sending updates. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”


“Whitney was super nice and friendly. My puppy, Luffy, looked really comfy & happy from the pic updates she sent throughout the day. She was very accomodating with everything my puppy needed to stay overnight. I would definitely recommend Whitney to anyone who’s trying to find a sitter for their pet/s. Overall an awesome experience, especially for my first time!”

“Ami and her son were very patient with our semi-neurotic dog, and with our scheduling! She knows and understands dog behavior - we felt like Gabriel was in good hands.”

“Linda Jean is everything you could hope for in a Rover sitter. She took wonderful care of Lucy and gave detailed updates along with photos. Lucy was happy and comfortable when we picked her up. We’d love to have Linda Jean sit for us again.”

“Kaitlin and Verle took such great care of our dog! He was calm and happy when we picked him up, and I would definitely feel comfortable booking again!”

“Cerita is so accommodating and sweet with Indy. We felt so comfortable leaving him for the night. We got updates and photos, he had so much fun! Indy would love to come back and visit!”

“We felt completely at ease leaving our dog with Mark over the holidays. He made sure Apollo was comfortable in his home and was super accommodating to all his little quirks. Mark's communication was excellent, always quick and responsive, which we appreciated. We'd definitely book with him again and recommend him to other dog owners :)”

“Ana was so helpful in caring for our dog last minute! We needed to board our dog with almost no notice and then I even booked the stay for one day short. Ana was so accommodating and treated our dog like family.”

“It is obvious how much Marwa loves cats and takes great care of them. She was a lifesaver for my Felix as he is newly rescued, was sick and not neutered so I had very limited options on where to board him, but she was happy to have him as her only cat for the week I was gone. He loved her and came back a happy cat.”

“Susanne took great care of my dog! She was very kind and understanding of my dog’s needs, and my dog enjoyed his stay. I appreciated the regular pictures and updates that she sends. I definitely recommend booking with Susanne, and I’ll be sure to book again when needed!”

“Hana was so kind, accommodating, and responsive! She sent videos and updates of our pup having so much fun on walks or playing with other dogs! She was super patient since our pup can be anxious but when we went to go pick her up, she looked so comfortable and happy! 10/10 recommend Hana for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“Kylie was amazing!! Super responsive and always willing to show us how our girl was settling in!! She also was very generous with her flexibility when it came to one of our flights getting delayed. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”


“There’s nothing like knowing your fur kid is happy and safe while you’re away. Bill and Todd Took great care of my pup and she cannot wait to go back. Seeing the pictures and video of her on her own little vacation was a unexpected added bonus. Thank you gentleman!”

“Honestly, Alyssa was amazing. She definitely helped me out last minute and she was completely understanding. She took care of my baby while I was away and I could tell that he was a good hands. I will definitely be using her again.”

“Jason was great with our dog Max. He sent us picture updates and gave Max bath, even though he didn’t have to. At the end he sent Max home with a nice doggy treat bag. Jason went above and beyond and treated our dog Max like his own. I highly recommend Jason for dog boarding services.”

“Marissa and her partner took amazing care of my Frenchie! I received daily updates, and it was clear he was having a great time. He came back happy, relaxed, and well cared for. I’ll definitely be using them again!”

“Michelle is great, our dog Mickey has issues with his paws occasionally and it randomly flared up when he was staying there. Michelle kept us informed and did everything possible to help, she treated Mickey like her own and we really appreciate it. I would recommend Michelle to anyone, she knows what she is doing and went above and beyond for us, again we are thankful for her efforts and care for our pup.”

Luke and Elaheh were a perfect match for our little guy, Cody. I would not hesitate to rebook with them. They matched his energy with walks, playtime, cuddles and love. We never felt out of touch. They sent daily messages and photos. If your doggy needs a place to stay, Luke and Elaheh will not disappoint.

Shakyra did a fantastic job, she took great care of our family member, our dog Riley. It was her first time away from home over night. We got a good update and when I went to pick her up the next morning she was calm and relaxed. Shakyra is very pleasant and communicative that alone put us at ease. She get 5 stars from us. Definitely use her again.

Rachel and Max are the best!! We dropped off our dog to stay with them for about a week, which was the longest she’s ever stayed with someone else. It went fantastic!! My dog is in love with them (especially max it sounds like!!) and they treated her like she was their own pet. Rachel and max were willing to do an overnight trial run a few weeks before to get our dog comfortable, and she felt right at home during the longer stay!! Thank you guys!!!

We're so grateful to have found Linda to care for our Bodhi. She's so loving and sweet with him, and we know that his every need is being tended to. We love the photos and updates that she sends, and the fact that he cries when it's time to go home shows us that he loves her right back!

Cass took excellent care of my dog Bailey while I was away on a 6-day trip. She provided excellent communication throughout the booking process from start to finish. The status updates and photos she provided left me completely at ease, knowing Bailey was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Cass, and will keep her in mind for future bookings.

From the time we stop my pup literally pulls me up the stairs to her apartment. To see how excited he is to see her shows me how much she cares for him. It warms my heart that someone truly cares for him just as much as I do. Ana is truly the best at what she does. Your furry pet is going to be well taken care of.

I cannot be more thankful or grateful to how well Cassandra took care of our dog Xena. She was communicative all weekend long sent us pictures and updates and kept our minds at ease knowing Xena was so well taken care of. I give Cassandra the highest recommendation possible and can’t wait to book her again in the future. Thank you so much

Whitney took great care of our older pup, Whiskey while we were away. We were leaving for an extended period of time and Whitney sent lots of picture updates which put our mind at ease until we got home. Great communication and super friendly! Whiskey came back happy and I’m sure he can’t wait to go back! :)

From the moment I reached out to the meet & greet and then dropping off my sweet boy, Adrian was very responsive, welcoming and made Cosmic feel right at home. She was in constant communication with me and sent me pictures and videos frequently to show just how well Cosmic adjusted as he is a shy dog at first. Cosmic can’t wait to be back playing with his new dog pals and he even made friends with her family. I highly recommend Adrian!

Amanda was absolutely amazing from when I first reached out, to our meet and greet, and during Skylar’s stay. She was very responsive and shared fun pictures and videos. We knew our Skylar was in good hands and that she had the best vacation too. We would definitely rebook in a heartbeat.

What a blessing it was for us to leave our Vito in Katelyn and Paul’s hands. Not only did he enjoy a relaxing little oasis in their yard, but he also got his beloved daily walks. We received adorable updates every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while being far away on a work trip. Thank you both for being such wonderful Rover partners — we’re truly grateful🙏🫶
