“"I cannot recommend our pet sitter enough! They provided exceptional care for our puppy while we attended a wedding Our pet “gigi” was happy, Marcela went above and beyond, sending us regular updates and photos to give us peace of mind. Their love and dedication to animals truly shines through in their work. We will definitely be using their services again in the future!"”

“Maria, her husband, and their dog Penny took exceptional care of my two dogs for almost a week. Maria kept us updated on our dogs' well-being and sent us photos and videos. She also came to our rescue and arranged for us to stay the night before our reservation, so we didn't miss our flight. Thank you! I definitely recommend her and will use her services again.”

“My dog's recent stay with Cynthia A. was a very positive experience. We had great communication and the facility is set up nicely for dogs. As a bonus, Cynthia has extensive experience with dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her.”


“Jeff was absolutely amazing. We needed someone to watch my French Bulldog puppy, Groot, basically immediately and he was more than accommodating. He got back to us in a timely fashion and as first time “rover” users my hubby and I were impressed. Within the hour we pulled up to Jeff house and he and his family took great care of our baby Groot. All the other dogs were very big and I was little concerned but was optimistic. That day sent us so many happy videos of our puppy socializing having fun and adapting to his new friends of all sizes. Jeff went above and beyond and his over all dog knowledge and system gave groot a happy sleep over and us happy puppy parents. Thank you so much for taking in my Groot being so good to him & having him celebrate with ur family durning the holidays. We will definitely use him for our next trip!”
“Korin was such an attentive and AMAZING 5 star sitter for our Roise!! We went away on vacation for a week out of the country and she made sure to contact us every single day with updates as well as sending us lots of photos and videos in which we greatly appreciated! She did very good with our Rosie! 10/10 highly recommend to be used!! We will be using Korin again for the near future any time we are going away for sure!! Thank you Korin for everything!!”

“Christine was amazing! My dog, Bruno, can be intimidating but he was like a big mush with her. Her home is spotless and her attention to Bruno's needs was nothing short of perfect. He is a big dog and she had no issues handling him during his stay. He came happy and healthy and I can't say enough about Christine and her care for my best friend.”

“I can’t thank Melissa and her husband enough for taking care of my little guy. They both make the process so easy for dropping off and watching over your dog. They have a perfect sized yard for activities and are with your dog around the clock. I have never felt more comfortable leaving chip with them. My pup requires a lot of care for medical reasons. Melissa and her husband knew exactly what to do in regards to his meds. Chip came home with me exactly how I left him. I highly recommend to work with Melissa when boarding you dog.”

“Jinay was literally the best sitter ever!! I’m always weary about leaving my pittie with separation anxiety with someone new but she just went above and beyond! She knew exactly how to deal with it and went above and beyond with her care. She even did a training day for her and another dog!! She sent me amazing adorable pics and vid’s all throughout her stay and I could see my dog was just having the best time! So glad I chose her :)”

“This is the second time my dog has stayed with Antonia, and she absolutely loves it there! I always get lots of pictures and updates, and I know she’s being well cared for. Every time I pick her up, she never wants to leave. Highly recommend! 🐾❤️”

“I highly recommend Lorena! Not only does she communicate with updates daily but she goes above and beyond to make sure your dog is taken care of and comfortable during the stay.”

“Tara S and her family are amazing ?. They took such good care of my Louie - including washing all of his bedding the day I came to get him. She has two good sized good natured dogs that kept him busy the entire time we were gone. I highly recommend her if you have a good natured medium sized dog they likes companionship & playtime. My Louie is about 90 lbs just so you have an idea of what I mean by good sized dog. We will absolutely use them again ?”

“Simply AMAZING!!! I'm sooo happy to have met this beautiful couple to watch my 2 pooches. They are friendly, kind, compassionate, and so caring for my pups. Updated me with many pictures and were very communicative. Will be using them again. I HIGHLY recommend”

“Ashley went above and beyond to take care of my dog. She was flexible with pick up and drop off. She made sure he had adequate air conditioning during a heat wave. She went to great lengths to give him his medications. And she even gave him a bath before returning him to me. She is knowledgeable and caring. I would definitely recommend her!”

“Cassandra has watched my dog, Rosie, several times now over the past few years and I count myself lucky to have found her! Cassandra is very communicative and accommodating. She sends pictures and updates throughout the booking and Rosie always comes back happy and without any issues.”

Shirley dog parents share their Rover experiences
Emma was a wonderful pet sitter to our 5 month puppy. She was gentle and kind. She provided updates and pictures. Administered rx medicine daily. Provided daily exercise and active play with the help of her pup. I felt that my puppy was always in great hands the entire stay.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Lauren and Kenny. They took amazing care of my 9 month old pup Melo, while I was away for the week. From the very beginning communication was clear and consistent I received regular updates and videos that really helped put my mind at ease. Melo came back not only happy and healthy but noticeably calmer and more balanced which really says a lot about the quality of care he received. It’s clear that Lauren and Kenny treats the dogs they watch like their own. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!
