“Bethany provided our family with a peace of mind and assurance that Ted was in loving care while we were away. Bethany was intentional with updates and snapshots of our Ted in a daily basis. She was respectful and professional from start to finish. Our family cannot recommend Bethany enough.”
“Natasha was an excellent caregiver to our dog Lola for 12 days. She kept us up to date on how are girl was doing with daily photos and videos. It put us at peace to know she was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Natasha to watch your pet!”

“Isabel and her husband were the best hosts I could have asked for for my puppy! This was my first time leaving my dog, Wren, overnight anywhere for longer than 1 night and they were phenomenal with her. Isabel was constantly sending me updates and the most adorable photos which provided me with so much comfort knowing that Wren was taken care of. Her dogs and mine got along great so knowing that she had some friends with her the whole 8 days was a HUGE bonus. It's so nice knowing that when I travel again in the future, I have someone safe to leave my dog with. Thank you Isabel!”

“Our dog had a great time with Emilee and her family. Emilee was very attentive to our boy's specific needs. Emilee was very easy to communicate with and sent regular updates and photos during his visit. We look forward to using Emilee for pet sitting services in the future!”

“Karen made our dog feel right at home and has a perfect fenced in yard that is dedicated to the dogs. Her Lab made the perfect companion to keep our excited pup busy and entertained. Karen also sent pictures and was very easy to communicate with, definitely going to be returning next time we need a sitter!”


“Misael is amazing with our two energetic labs, we have had our boys stay with him many times over this past year and they always come home very happy and healthy. Highly recommend!”

“Thank you so much, Erica, for taking such great care of my Max. He really loves being with your family, and I’m so grateful for the love and care you always give him."”


“Karen is a very professional pet sitter! She was understanding and kind and kept me updated with my pup during the entire stay. I will book with her every time! Thank you”

“What a fantastic pet sitter! She sent updates and pics during our time away assuring us that Yoshi was doing great. She even gave us a goody bag when we picked Yoshi up. We will definitely be using Alyssa again!”

“Heather, My experience with you was nothing short of amazing for both my dog, Sawyer, and myself. Even before booking, you showed a genuine interest in learning all about Sawyer. It was clear that you not only love dogs but truly wanted to make him feel welcome in your home. You provided a dog-friendly environment and kept me well-informed with regular updates and photos through the Rover app. Thank you for taking such great care of him. He’s really looking forward to his next visit with you. BTW, he enjoyed the rest of his Birthday Cupcake! Warm regards, Brian”

“Our dogs had the best weekend with Kexin and Carlos (and their new furry friends)! Everything was super easy and smooth. They kept us updated with great pictures and videos and even gave us sweet mementos of their stay. We will absolutely book again and highly recommend them!! Thank you both so much for your thoughtfulness and care with Franklin and Riley!”

“Matthew once again took very excellent care of Bailey while I was away for the weekend. He was good with giving medications and sent me frequent updates and pictures. Most importantly, he loves having Bailey over and Bailey loves spending time there! I wouldn’t leave him with anyone else.”


“Our dog Katie loved her overnights with Jessica, Justin and Abu. Jessica was amazing and made it so I did not have to worry at all. She treated our dog like family and I would highly recommend Jessica if you are looking for a dog sitter!! She sent plenty of updates so I was assured that all was well. Katie made herself right at home and helped herself to Abu’s toys, etc. Jessica has a great fenced in backyard and Katie spent much time outside with her new friend. When she came home she slept all day!!! Katie can’t wait to go back. Great experience ?”

“Leaving our dog Winnie with Cierra was one of the easiest Rover experiences we have had! Winnie seemed right at home from our first meeting! Loved getting pictures of our dog while away travelling! Easy recommendation.”

“This is the second time Danielle has taken care of my dog and I couldn’t be happier. My doggo went with her happily when she picked him up. (It almost hurt my feelings lol) She sent pics every day and he looked cozy and relaxed. I feel very reassured leaving Cody with Danielle 😊”

“We are so happy we booked with Ty! Her and her family were so good to our dog Scout and she provided the best updates and pictures. We would definitely book with Ty again ☺️”

“Keasha and her family took great care of Bagel! I was confident that my dog was in good hands. Will certainly come back to Keasha when I travel again. I can’t recommend her enough.”

Best. Rover. Ever!!! Our pup had the absolute best time ever at Ashley’s place with her family and own pup. K played nonstop with her new bestie. Ashley was super communicative and sent the most beautiful pictures and sweet updates. Thank you x a million! K can’t wait to go back 😁

Caera was amazing! From the start, I felt super comfortable leaving my pup with her. She kept me updated with messages and the cutest pictures, which made me feel so at ease. I could tell my dog was happy, loved, and totally spoiled while I was away! She was super sweet, followed all my instructions, and really went the extra mile. It honestly felt like my dog was on a mini vacation too. I’m so glad I found her and will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much, Caera, you’re the best!
