“Lora was a great host for atlas! My dog is pure puppy and she did great with him, giving him exercise in her big fenced in yard and keeping him busy! She updated me with pictures each day and it looked as if he was having a blast. I will have atlas stay with lora anytime we go somewhere without him because he had so much fun . Thank you lora.”

“I had the best experience with Stephanie watching my Samoyed . She has a very loving and caring disposition and kept me updated the entire time with pictures. I knew my dog was in the best care and I’m so grateful to have connected with her over this app. I highly recommend her .”

“I had to leave my pup Patrick under Zachary’s care for 6 days, the longest I have been separated with him. I felt at ease with his daily updates and quick responses to messages. Patrick was happy and met many lovely puppy friends throughout his stay. I am so grateful for the great care Zachary gave! We will visit him again soon!”

About: I grew up on a small farm and have always loved creatures great and small. I have always had pets and have been a caregiver for friend’s dogs for years. I am now home full time and welcome the opportunity to slather love on more critters 🩷 I am currently home full time so have all the time in the world to spend with the animals. In warm weather I can leave the back door open allowing dogs to come in and out as the please. I have a fenced yard and a sweet 6 year old plott hound (Mojo), many fish, an axolotl (Buggie), and a hamster (Donut). My husband and I have two boys aged 10 and 12 who love animals as much as I do.
“I had my dog Winnie stay with Shannon and her family for a long weekend while I went away on vacation. I received plenty of pictures and videos of Winnie having an amazing time them them. It really was like Winnie was also on vacation, which allowed me to enjoy my time away without having to worry. I highly recommend Shannon for your dog boarding needs!!!”

“Tianyue was awesome every step of the way. This was our first time using Rover and we have never left Bailey with anybody before, so we were apprehensive. Tianyue was very sweet and sent lots of videos. We would definitely recommend her to anyone. Thank you Tianyue for everything!”

“Nick took care of Jessie for six days and did an excellent job! We had peace of mind during our trip overseas and received a wonderful photo update about Jessies stay with her furry friends. When we leave Jessie with Nick we know that she is well taken care of. Nick always provides excellent care for our senior dog and is attentive to her needs. He comes highly recommended.”

About: Hi! I’m Ben, a genuine dog lover that goes above and beyond for all pets under my care. I’ve been called a “dog whisperer” by more than a few people because I naturally connect with dogs on a deep level, especially those who may be hesitant, skittish, or shy around others. Time and time again, those dogs seem to gravitate toward me, and earning their trust is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. I value patience and consistency for these adorable, loving creatures and truly see them as members of the family, not just pets. I take my responsibility seriously and always research the ins and outs of every breed before pet sitting so I can provide thoughtful, customized care tailored to each dog’s specific needs and personality. I love meeting dogs at their energy level, whether that means lots of playtime, long walks, games, and exercise, or ensuring structured rest and calm downtime when that’s what they need most. I’m happy to learn about your training goals and reinforce behavior using positive reinforcement strategies so your dog feels supported, safe, and understood. I’ve worked with all types of dogs and a wide range of challenges, including food aggression, excessive barking, and very cautious or shy temperaments. I truly love all dogs and meet them where they are, with patience, empathy, and consistency. I also welcome any and all instructions you’d like to share. No list is too long when it comes to your valued family member, and I take pride in following routines closely so your dog feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! Pet care is my full-time focus, allowing me to offer exceptional flexibility in scheduling that accommodates a variety of schedules and allows me the availability to best support you and your pet’s needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, my top priority is ensuring comfort, consistency, and a stress-free experience. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll enjoy a fenced-in yard and plenty of fresh air, plus we live just blocks from the beach, perfect for dogs who love seaside walks and playtime. We also have a very friendly French bulldog who loves other dogs and provides great companionship, especially for shy or anxious pups who benefit from having a buddy. I’m always mindful that some dogs may feel out of their comfort zone at first, and I take great care to help them settle in gently. Many dogs who have stayed with us have quickly warmed up to our cozy home and routine. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’m dedicated to keeping them on their normal routine to provide familiarity and reduce stress. I treat every home with the utmost respect, maintaining cleanliness, organization, and care as if it were my own. No matter where I’m caring for your pet, I carefully review and follow all instructions to ensure consistency, comfort, and safety while you’re away. I also believe strongly in keeping you connected, so I send frequent photos and videos because I know how much it means to see your pet happy when you’re apart, even if it’s just for a few hours.
“Jess was amazing with Coco! Made me feel super comfortable before dropping her off, was accommodating to Coco’s nuances, and provided updates throughout her stay! Coco took to Jess and her family immediately, and loved playing with the other dogs! Highly recommend :)”

“Jenn and Bobby saved our weekend plans by taking care of our pup when the family member who usually watches her had to cancel last minute. Thank you so much and we'll definitely be in touch again soon!”

“It was great meeting Trish and our dog, Harper, hit it off with her instantly. She is very genuine and made us feel very comfortable with leaving our young dog for the first time. Harper is a 9 month old mini goldendoodle who is still working out his training and puppy energy. Trish kept us updated and sent photos daily. We unfortunately had to cut our trip short due to a family matter but will not hesitate to use Trish again in the future.”

About: I’m a reliable, patient caregiver experienced with puppies, seniors, and shy dogs. I focus on safe walks, positive routines, and attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs. I have a flexible weekly schedule, so I can reliably fit dog walks into my day. I’m available for morning, midday, and early afternoon walks throughout the week. I care for pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine—safely, gently, and with full attention. I follow all instructions and keep your home tidy.

“This was Cosmo’s second stay at Jaime’s place, and this time it was for more than 10 days. We were completely at peace knowing he was comfortable and well cared for, especially with Luna by his side. Jaime already knew Cosmo’s routine and took care of everything so thoughtfully. We kept receiving regular updates with pictures and videos, which made us so happy. Surprisingly, Cosmo never even used his crate during the stay — a clear sign that he truly felt at home. Luna is definitely his best buddy! We had absolutely no worries knowing Cosmo was in such good hands, and we’ll surely be reaching out to Jaime for many more stays.”

“Janice was wonderful and took Harper on so many fun walks! She was super responsive and flexible with our pickup and dropoff times when our schedule changed. Harper would love to see her again. Thank you Janice!”

“Katia did a great job with the pups, provided good communication, and pictures. I would recommend her for anyone looking for a caring dogsitter and would trust her to watch our dogs in the future.”

“Hieu took amazing care of our little guy. She sent updates with photos/videos daily, and it was clear our pup was a happy one! Hieu looked after him while we were away for the holidays, and she very sweetly got him a Christmas treat, wrapped and all, so he had something to open himself on Christmas. We are very happy with the care Tai provided and would definitely recommend Hieu to anyone looking for boarding!”

“Warren and his family took such great care of Stabler! My husband and I just moved to the area and were a bit nervous to leave Stabler with a new sitter, but he immediately felt at ease with their family and was spoiled with waterside walks, play time in their gorgeous backyard and lots of cuddles from all. When we picked him up he was zonked — clearly so much fun was had! Natalie took cute pics and sent updates as well which totally eased our mind. We would definitely leave Stabler with them again and thank them for such a great stay!”
Scituate pet parents share their Rover experiences
When our usual dog sitter had to cancel a 7-day stay at close to the last minute Cecelia cheerfully stepped in to take care of Zorro, thank goodness. She took the time to meet him beforehand and we had the chance to introduce him to her family which made dropping him off a few days later much easier. During the stay he had lots of walks, snuggles, games and treats. When I picked him up he was totally content, wandering around getting extra pets from her and her daughter while we chatted. While we were away Cecelia sent regular updates and pictures. Overall a great experience for me and Zorro! I'm sure we'll be back.
Matt kept my 35 pound lab mix for 5 days over a holiday weekend and gave her wonderful care! She got tired out playing with his adorable dogs and kept an eye his cat from afar, haha. Matt is a caring and attentive host, flexible with my misbehaving love bug. Would definitely recommend!

Giseli was great - her two dogs were wonderful, she was super flexible with us, and our golden retriever had a wonderful time with loads of walks and play. She sent pictures throughout which made us very happy and comfortable that all was well, as this was Duke's first stay away from home.
