“Jen was wonderful with our pup - we got updates throughout the day each day we were gone and we can tell she was cared for very well. We will definitely rebook with her in the future!”

“There are few people I feel comfortable enough to leave my pup Luca with, and Mai is at the top of the list. It is more than clear how much she cares for him and how safe he feels with her. He has now stayed with Mai 3x and she is now my go-to person for all future trips. Mai is extremely responsive, and treats Luca as her own when he’s with her. Mai is a trustworthy, responsible, kind person that I’m so grateful to have found. Thank you Mai!”

“Arim is awesome! My border terrier is both a bundle of energy and cuddling enthusiast, and he bonded immediately with her. Milton was happy and healthy upon our reunion after five days, which is all the more impressive given rain in Los Angeles during my away time complicating options for his walks and outside business. I have no hesitations recommending Arim for boarding your pet whether canine or feline.”


“Max loves staying with Roxy! We took a trip to Europe for 9 days this time and are always assured Max will get great care and have fun with her. She sends photos daily to keep us informed about his day and it’s so comforting to see how happy he is when we’re away.”

“Marthe was so amazing with my pup. She sent wonderful updates everyday and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of. She was so accommodating and communicative and I’ll be recommending her to everyone I know.”


“Ángela was great with Harley! She sent me lots of pictures and updates and made me feel very at ease while on vacation that my girl was being very well cared for. Thanks Angela for everything.”

“Rene took amazing care of Allie! Allie is an elderly dog that needed special care and Rene provided the best care for all of her needs. She checked in each day with either text messages or a sweet video of Allie. Rene is an amazing dog sitter!! I will be using her again and highly recommend her!!”
“Jamie was great! Pup was very nervous going into a new space, but by the end of the weekend was playing and settling in. Got great pictures and videos during her stay that put me at ease the first time boarding her. Jamie will definitely be a top choice when needing to board in the future.”

“Brittany was amazing with our dog Luna! It was our first time booking with Rover and we felt so comfortable while we were away that Luna was in the best of hands! She sent us a ton of adorable updates, photos, and videos cuddling and on walks and playing with other dogs. Luna also never eats much when she’s not home staying at other places and Brittany sent photos of Luna licking her bowl clean which made us so happy! Definitely book with Brittany she is the best, Luna will be back!”

“Lucinda and her family took great care of Lilo and kept me up to date with pictures of their adventures! I enjoyed my vacation stress-free knowing she was in great hands. :)”

“Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have found Lisa! It’s always been so hard to find sitters who understand senior dogs and the extra care they need. I felt so much at ease leaving my 2 senior fur babies in her care. You can tell she loves animals and gave alot of attention and love to my boys. She also followed instructions on their medication schedule and is very proactive. Thank you so much Lisa!”

“I can't say enough great things about Ellie! She cared for a recent rescue when I had to go out of town for a few days. She made my girl feel right at home and sent regular pics and videos which made me feel confident about her care from start to finish. When she found a couple of fleas on my put during her stay, she was so calm and helpful working with me from afar to take care of it. When my flight was delayed coming home, she even agreed to care for my pup until I could get back to town. Will definitely rebook with Ellie again!”

“Vicky is a wonderful dog sitter. She sent frequent updates, which gave me a peace of mind knowing my dog was happy and comfortable during his stay. She’s very caring and took excellent care of my pup. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Charli stayed with my 15-year-old doggie for another night and took wonderful care of him. She’s attentive, kind, and clearly very experienced with senior dogs. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Alicia and her 2 boys took wonderful care of my golden retriever. Rilee. It's such a comfort to know that my dog was so well cared for and loved while I was out of town. I will definitely be using alicia when I go out of town again.”

“Carol and her family are Chewbacca’s second family. I could not ask for a more loving household. Chew gets so excited every time we pull up to their house because he knows he’s in for adventures and snuggles. Highly recommend!”

“Katherine was incredibly friendly and welcoming which made our dog yuki comfortable. She also walked yuki right away and made sure to make her feel at home by laying out her toys and handing out plenty of snacks. Katherine provided updates or Yumi with photos as a bonus. We can't wait to use her services again!”

“Andrew was amazing! He came to the rescue in a pinch when another boarder cancelled and took such great care of Ghost. He listened, was attentive, sent lots of pics and made sure Ghost was comfortable. Andrew is very kind and a great communicator. I felt very comfortable knowing Ghost was in his care. I will definitely book him again!”

Sawtelle dog parents share their Rover experiences
Abbey and her husband took great care of Remy! This was our first time using them to watch him over the weekend and they sent pictures and videos of him every day. He rarely gets to stay with another dog in the house, so I was a little nervous of how they'd interact, but they assured me he was great with their dog Winnie and had the best time! We'll definitely rebook them if we need to go out of town again.

Tessa was absolutely amazing! She stepped in last minute to watch our English bulldog Melon while we had to head home to Boston, and we couldn’t have been more grateful. She clearly spent quality time with our pup, who had such a great experience with her. Tessa kept us updated with so many pictures and messages, which made us feel completely at ease and comfortable the entire time we were away. It meant so much to know our dog was in such caring and attentive hands. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter!

Mai was an absolutely wonderful sitter for my Frenchie, Kai! She took care of him for a few days while I was away for work, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she really understood his needs and made sure he was comfortable and happy. She was super responsive and kept me updated with frequent messages and lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Kai was in great hands the entire time. It happened to be Kai’s birthday during his stay, and Mai went above and beyond to make it special. She spoiled him with treats and made sure he had a fun, happy day, which I truly appreciated. I would book with Mai again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive sitter!

Ryan and Mari provided amazing care to my dog Archie. He had never stayed with a sitter before and I was nervous to leave him with someone new, especially because he can be a bit reactive on leash. They put me at ease from the beginning with great communication, plenty of pictures and updates, and all around good vibes. Archie had a fabulous time playing with Remy and the other dog guests during his stay and I was able to enjoy my night away knowing he was in great hands.

Emilee was great with our dog, who sometimes takes a little bit of time to warm up to new people, but who settled in very quickly and was clearly happy and well-cared for when we picked her up. I also appreciated the photos and video that she shared with us while we were away!

Madeline came through for us last-minute and we’re so glad we found her! She sent us frequent pictures so we could see what Abby was up to. Abby looked so content that I wondered whether she would even want to come home! Madeline stuck to Abby’s schedule and if there was any deviation checked with us to make sure it was okay. We’ll definitely reach out to Madeline the next time we need to board Abby!
