âChad is wonderful with my Benny. When I leave Benny in his care I know that Benny has a great time and is well looked after because he sends me picture/video updates. Benny is always wagging his tail when he sees Chad. I will continue to book Chad.â

âErika is an exceptional doggie sitter! My four-legged baby, Nova, is a lively and energetic puppyâfull of joy, love, and a whole lot of personality. She can definitely be a handful at times, but Erika handles her with such calm, patient energy that itâs truly impressive. Nova absolutely adores spending time with her and loves being part of the pack. The daily updates and delightful stories Erika shares are a highlight of my day and always bring a smile to my face. Knowing that Nova is in such caring and capable hands gives me complete peace of mind. Erika is truly wonderful!â

âBenny did a great job watching my (Barry) German Shepherd. He sent daily updates which kept me at ease knowing that Barry was well taken care of. I highly recommend Benny to watch your dogs.â

âAlex was a last minute God-send for me and my pup, Maxwell. She was super flexible as I managed flight and life delays. Her home is located in a great place for doggie to run and play - right across the street from a beautiful park! And it was clear that both her and her kiddos are big time animal lovers. Her partner even pitched in to help re-stich his bed that was falling apart when I dropped him off. Above and beyond! I would definitely recommend Alex and her family to offer consistent, loving and fun care for your pets.â

âI had an excellent experience with this dog sitter caring for my elderly dog. They ensured that all of my dogâs needs were met â from medication management to gentle exercise and plenty of love. Their regular updates gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for high-quality, caring support for their senior pet.â

âHy and Arlo are so lovely and took such good care of our dog. He stayed with them for a week and he had a great time. We will definitely ask them to watch our boy again!â

âSharon is a dog ownerâs dream. Charlie was so happy and comfortable, she looked liked Sharon was her owner, making my own vacation worry free. Lots of good walks and cuddling. We will be back in the future!â

âThereâs no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!â

âAlbie is so happy when he sees Isaac and Jordan! They took him for a long walk today and weâre so glad that he had so much fun with them. All our directions were followed perfectly. Albie says âsee you next timeââ

âGreat communication and very understanding of some last minute flight and car troubles. Hudson got back home in a very happy mood :) weâll definitely trust Suzanne with our pup again!â
âAstrid and her family took such good care of my puppy! My puppy was very comfortable and happy staying with her and her family. She is knowledgeable, kind, and sent updates throughout his stay. Highly recommended her! Will be booking with her again. Thanks, Astrid!â

âMonica was amazing to work with and super flexible when I needed to change my drop off time. Itâs clear that Monica has a ton of creature care experience and genuinely loves spending time with animalsâ

âMelina was our first Rover experience and she made the process so welcoming. We'd never left our dog overnight with someone he didn't know â he's anxious, reactive and has separation anxiety, so it was important to us that we worked with with someone who understands and is patient with him. Melina was all of that and more! Within hours she had him snuggling up to her, and by the evening he was sleeping curled up next to her head. We got regular updates throughout the stay (including pictures) and felt so at-ease knowing he was well cared for. We would absolutely recommend Melina as a Rover, and especially for anyone with a special needs dog or a shy pup. She was amazing!â


âKim and Jeff did a wonderful job with my dog Charlie during his week stay at their place. He was welcomed into their dog pack, and the pictures they sent showed him having a fantastic time. I got frequent, funny updates and pictures, which put my mind at ease. Jeff trained Charlie with Charlie's reactiveness on the leash, and gave me some tips on how to help Charlie with this. Charlie came home happy and tired, a good sign! Would highly recommend Kim and Jeff and I will definitely be using their services again!â

âInkoo was incredible with our dog Koda. He had the time of his life with her and her dog Freya, who he instantly bonded with. It was our first time being away from our new pup and Inkoo was diligent and very communicative, providing updates on any changes or questions, and sharing sweet photos throughout the week. It was a relief to know he was in such good caring hands. I canât recommend her highly enough!â

About: Hi, I've cared for animals of all shapes and sizes for my entire life and used to work professionally as an animal caretaker at a kids amusement park. I'm experienced with administering medications and older pets that might have special needs and I'm looking forward to looking after your precious pet while your busy or away! I wfh in my spacious home in the Frick neighborhood of Oakland. I have a 10month old medium sized dog called Mayka who is very friendly and playful with other animals. There's a large completely enclosed backyard with tons of space for dogs to run around and explore. Close to Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park and other large trails to take dogs out on long walks! I work from home at the moment so I will always be able to supervise your pet and I'm available seven days a week and can do boarding overnight I have a large fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your pet company. They'll have free roam of the entire house and will get supervised access to the backyard. I have a large dog crate and can easily crate your dog if needed
âWe were nervous to leave our 6 month old puppy, Annie for the first time but Lee was great! Friendly and confident. She gave text updates and pictures during the week we were gone. We loved the fact that she had a couple other dogs as well so our puppy could make some new friends. And we really liked that they were all smaller dogs so our shy puppy wonât be hopefully too overwhelmed around these new friends. It was also nice she provided a crate and toys so we didnât have to haul a ton to drop off. Thanks, Lee!â

âI couldnât have asked for a better experience with Dacyl! Upon meeting her, I knew she was going to be an instant fit for me and my pup. Her energy is so warm, attentive and she immediately connected with my baby. She asked plenty of great questions and truly treated my girl as her own. And I just adore her pup, Stan. What a distinguished gentleman. Her home was a perfect place for my girl to decompress yet be able to explore and sunbathe. I never had a worry and was able to be fully present during my trip. I loved that Dacyl updated me with photos and sweet messages. I could truly tell my pup loved the experience. I did too. Dacyl will absolutely be added to the auntie list! I canât recommend her and Stan enough!â

Seminary dog parents share their Rover experiences
Weâre so grateful for Hy and Arlo watching our pups for the past week. We have 1 dog that has social anxiety and have struggled to find a sitter who we feel comfortable leaving her with. Hy and Arlo were great! After the meet and greet we did with them, we felt confident weâd found people who would be able to handle our concerns. While in their care, our dogs did great and they sent us daily updates that made it easier for us to enjoy our vacation without worry. They exceeded my expectations and I will definitely recommend them to others.

Shannon & Rocky D are always great with Callie! They give Callie lots of love and attention. She always has the best time with them. Choosing a dog sitter can be stressful, but I never worry when Callie stays with Shannon & Rocky D. Iâll definitely be booking again.

Kelly was the best sitter for our pup. I knew she would care for our dog just as much as we do. It gave us a peace of mind while we were away and assurance that we made the right decision booking Kelly. Thank you Kelly for being so thoughtful and attentive, we appreciate you!

Astrid is absolutely wonderful! She watched Ghost for nearly two weeks, and we couldnât have asked for better care. She is extremely attentive and kept us at ease with frequent photo updates throughout his stay. Ghost had a blast and especially loved hanging out with her kidsâit was like a vacation for him too! Itâs clear that Astrid treats every dog like her own, and we will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future. Highly recommended!
