“Everything went well included meet and greet before boarding. My 8 month puppy Mochi enjoyed playing and get along with their dog Loki. Mr and Mrs. Ganesh took care of Mochi nicely and being patient even she had accident then tied for more often potty breaks for solution. They shared Some videos and pictures .”

“Dartagnan was great at taking care of Axel. When I first met him for a meet and greet, I could tell he was knowledgeable about dogs. One thing I really liked was that he is always quick to address any mischievous behaviors that comes from too much excitement. He also sent me daily photos, which was reassuring. As someone who used to dog sit on Rover, I have high expectations. Dartagnan and his partner have exceeded them. Will definitely book with them again the next time I’m out of town.”

“Bonnie took care of Annie while we were out of the country. She was super responsive to communication and sent us frequent updates while we were away. Bonnie is so sweet and we could tell that she loves dogs/animals. We would definitely ask Bonnie to watch our dog again. Thank you!”

“My 9month old puppy Mochi’s stayed 5 days at Mrs Kristin house.Mochi enjoyed running and playing with her dog Kelce and Badgley each day. Kristin home and yard was pet friendly . I received pictures one for two pictures each day with update when I asked her. Before and during stay she replied txt promptly. It was very helpful for me.”

“Rhondarose gave us multiple updates and pictures which was so great since this was the first time our pup was cared for outside of family. Cocco was able to run and play with other dogs and it was an easy transition with Rhondarose’s family. We are so grateful and already planned our next booking!”

“They took good care of our Lucas. It was a last minute booking and they accomodate all our change request. Luca had a good time and i can say that from the photos they send.”

“Our dog Lily had a great stay! Matie kept us updated with photos and messages the whole time, which was so nice while we were away. She was really welcoming and made sure Lily was comfortable and happy. Lily came home relaxed and well-cared for. We'll definitely book with Matie again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

She was Also was very responsive to any questions/messages. She is kind and respectful! I recommend her 10/10”

“Kasia stayed with our puppy Bella over the weekend and our experience was amazing! Kasia was so attentive and shared photos every day of Bella and her sweet little daughter! Kasia and her daughter played with Bella endlessly! We love that she only sits for one dog at a time! I will recommend Kasia to all of my friends! We hope to see you again soon! Thank you for taking such great care of our girl! ?”


“Our dogs were returned in good condition (though they each had gorilla tape embedded in their fur which they had managed to chew off of Michelle’s crate liners - sorry Michelle!). Michelle is an experienced sitter who has specific processes in place which she clearly communicates. The daily feedback messages and pics were timely and detailed which we appreciated. We would have our dogs stay with Michelle again.”

“We hired Judith to watch my 12 year old dog in her home. My dog seemed to really enjoy her stay and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. Judith provided twice a day updates which I really enjoyed! She verified with me before I left that twice a day updates would be appropriate which I appreciated too. I would definitely recommend Judith! You can really tell she genuinely cares about dogs. :)”

“We normally have family or a close friend watch our sweet pup, but they were not available for our spring break trip this year. So, we very nervously set out to find a sitter for our dog. We found Leigh and her wonderful family on Rover and are so grateful! This is definitely a family that loves dogs. Leigh sent us pictures and updates every day so we could see how our dog was doing. They exercised him daily and kept him active! We are very grateful for Leigh and her family and would definitely book her again.”

“Gracie had a wonderful time. She was very, very well taken care of. I had pictures at least twice a day that made me feel that she was so safe. She seemed happy and having a very good time and very comfortable. I will not hesitate to use Susan again if I need Gracie to be watched, they’re very nice people. I feel that I have also made new friends for life.”

“Amanda just recently joined Rover as a dog sitter, so there weren’t yet any reviews to look over. However, based on her profile and especially meeting her and her daughter, I was very comfortable leaving Ollie in their care for a week. Ollie was well taken care of, and I received updates with pictures daily. He enjoyed his time there and being around her two smaller dogs. They are very nice/friendly and even sent Ollie home with a with a personalized goody bag with his name on it. That was a nice touch well above what was expected. I will definitely use them again.”

“Winston and Oliver really seemed to enjoy their visit with Lori and she was great about keeping us updating and communicating with us. Would use her again for sure.”

I was very worried about what to do with my dog when traveling. My dog is not great around strangers and gets scared easily. However, I am so glad I decided to go with Michelle as my dog sitter this past weekend. She provided multiple updates with pictures every day which was very comforting. I could tell she has a lot of experience caring for animals, as she was very adept in making my dog feel comfortable and knew what to do in various situations. I will definitely be booking with Michelle in the future, and I am confident she will care for my dog. If anyone has concerns about her abilities, please rest assured as she is very reliable!

Kim is a fantastic sitter, who is very understanding of my dog's needs. She worked with him through some behavioral issues he was having in a new environment/setting. She is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and how to care for them. Unfortunately, her care is not the right fit for my dog, but it is no reflection of the care and support that she gave him throughout his visits. I would recommend Kim to friends and family.

Julie & Mark provided a caring home for our dogs while we traveled for 1 week during spring break. While we typically board our 7 year old dog, we didn’t feel good about boarding our 4 month old puppy. Rover proved to be a great alternative. Julie & Mark have a spacious and comfortable home, which they opened up to our dogs. Plus, they have a huge, fenced in backyard. They sent us daily updates with photos, so we stayed connected to our dogs while we were separated. Julie & Mark are warm and friendly. They seem to care for and genuinely enjoy the dogs they are watching. We feel lucky to have found Julie & Mark and will absolutely use them for future pet sitting needs.

I really bad at post reviews right away because I tend to forget. Lindsey did amazing with Oreo. She was understanding around pick up as I was working out of town and had to have a family member do a pick up. Oreo slept most of the day after coming back homes. She sent me updates and photo and it liked like Oreo was having a blast which is amazing. As a traveler for work it really hard finding someone to wait your pet. I am happy to have found her.
Megan is a top notch cat sitter. She’s very caring and knowledgeable in taking care of Orange. She always updates us of what’s going on and that give us a peace of mind whenever we leave Orange under her care because we know that Orange is in good hands. I would definitely recommend Megan to anyone that needs their pet to be taking care of.

I have used a handful of sitters for boarding and Shelby was my favorite. I found her last minute and was so relieved to find someone I can leave my girls with that I felt completely comfortable with. she was completely flexible with my schedule with my flight being delayed and pushing my pickup time to very late. Lots of pictures and updates made me so happy.
