“Great sitter who welcomed by Pup as a member of their family for the weekend! Frequent updates, safe and welcoming environment and the stay felt more like a vacation for our dog than a boarding experience. Thank you!”

“Absolutely fantastic! My pup is typically very weary of new people but she warmed up to Cal and Kelly pretty quickly. I was very surprised. Cal and Kelly were extremely responsive and sent updates throughout the day. I would book again in a heartbeat.”

“I had a wonderful experience boarding my dog, Hazel, with Bryn. At the meet and greet, Hazel obviously liked Bryn (which is not always the case when meeting new people) so I knew we were off to a great start. Bryn has a calm personality and definitely is knowledgeable about dogs. She has a lovely home and a great fenced in backyard where the dogs can play. Her dog, Kepler, is very sweet. Bryn sent pictures and updates during Hazel's stay and reported that she did very well. She followed my instructions as far as giving Hazel her medications. I'd happily recommend Bryn to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.”

“Christopher took excellent care of Oslo! He made sure Oslo stayed active and had plenty of playtime and it was clear he was having so much fun. I really appreciated all the picture updates throughout the day, it gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. I would definitely recommend Christopher to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.”

“Cristina was wonderful, so happy I booked her. It was our first time ever leaving our 4 year old dog with someone other than family. We did a meet and greet fist which helped. It seems our dog felt right at home with her. I received picture updates daily and came home after 6 days to a happy dog. Would definitely use Cristina again (if she would have him) :)”

“What a great doggy vacay for my Stitch! I seriously wondered if Stitch would want to come home with me after his week there. Josh & Andres clearly love dogs and have such a fun and safe home for them. I received regular updates/photos which were awesome. Thank you so much!”


“Sophia provides outstanding dog care! We were very pleased with how should took such great care of our dog and highly recommend her. She offers great communication and is eager to know how she can provide the best care for your pup.”

“Brianne took such good care of our Bean. Bean is very shy at first in new environments, but Brianne made sure to make her feel comfortable and safe. She kept us updated with pictures every day. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“One of my dogs is high maintenance, with special foods, meds, multiple meals needed a day,etc. Maria and Fernando took great care of him and my other dog! Highly recommend 👌”

“Carrie was awesome! It was our first time using Rover and Carrie and her family made us feel very comfortable leaving our dog there for the weekend. Her dog was also a great buddy for ours to hang out with. I would highly recommend her.”

“Masha and her family took excellent care of our dog. She sent updates a couple of times a day, pictures and videos included. We were able to relax in vacation knowing that our dog was comfortable with her. We would definitely book again!”

“Bria was AMAZING with my little pup. She took excellent care for him while I was on a trip. I received timely updates with pictures about how he was doing. He was happy with her and really took to her. She has an excellent spirited personality which I'm sure makes pups like her so much. I would definitely trust her with my precious pup again and I highly recommend her. She was also flexible with my drop off and pick up time.”

“Hello this was my first time boarding my pup Tyson and when I say it was an excellent experience from beginning to finish. Crystal S. sent me pictures and updates on his stay and the pictures was amazing just and relaxing laid out on her mats. She has everything you puppy will need and that put you at ease. I will be booking again. I love the quality work and love she expressed to my pup pup! Till the next time. Continue the excellent service you provide.”

“Evan and his wife stepped in at the very last minute to take care of Kobi for the weekend - and not only did they agree, but they were so enthusiastic it felt like I was doing them a favor and not the other way around! Communication was great with check ins during the day and drop off/pick up went smoothly. So grateful to have found them!”

“Kelly did a wonderful job taking care of Lola. Lola is a nervous dog with strangers, but Kelly and her husband made her feel comfortable right away. I had peace of mind while I was away because I knew Lola was having a great time with Kelly, her husband, and their dog. Kelly sent daily updates and pictures, and communication was excellent. Thank you so much for opening your home to Lola and treating her as if she were your own. I truly appreciate everything you did.”

“Carlos and his partner were so patient. Zero had a fresh injury and was very trepidatious at the beginning of her stay. They were so gracious and patient with her and she was getting belly rubs every night by the end. Stellar sitters!!”

“Joseph and his wife took amazing care of Kashmere over night. They sent updates through out the entire day/ night with pictures and videos to make sure we knew he was doing ok. Also kept him on schedule for us so there were no issues for us when we got him back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“Kristy had watched Maya during the day a few times prior to staying with her for a couple days. As always, she was very communicative and easy to schedule with. She was very accommodating for the pick up as I had to have someone else pick her up. Highly recommend as always.”

Sandy Spring dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our 3 1/2 year old husky, Skye, had a great first stay with Carrie and her family. He was welcomed so warmly to the family and made himself right at home. He came home calm, happy and tired - all signs of time well spent! And Fozzie is a wonderful playmate and sweet boy!! Overall, a great experience for our family.

Jaemin and his wife are wonderful caretakers for our Mylo. We were in a difficult situation when we left him with them, but they were incredibly calm, supportive, and understanding throughout. They followed all our instructions carefully and went above and beyond to provide extra care. We’re so glad we chose them and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and loving daycare. We truly appreciated the attention, patience, and care they showed Mylo.

It was our first time leaving our dear fur baby behind for a family overseas trip. It was nerve-wrecking not knowing what to do. We found Rover app and through that a very caring, dedicated sitter, Nuria. We received daily pictures and updates, which instantly put us at ease. Nuria even knitted a beautiful sweater for our beloved. We will definitely use her service again in the future.

Andrea is the perfect sitter! I appreciated her flexibility with drop off and pick up times and her very calm, personable and welcoming demeanor. Sarge loved being at her house and was already exploring the house by the time I left. Andrea made sure he had all the comforts of home and even got him to sleep in a dog bed that she provided. When I picked him up, he was very content and in no hurry to go home. I have already booked another stay, as I know Sarge will be in good care with Andrea.
