“Pamela was awesome! She helped me out last minute when my other sitter had to cancel. She watched my cat for a week and I could tell he was very well-cared-for. She sent me updates throughout my trip and gave me peace of mind while I was gone. I will definitely be using her again :)”
“Debbie took such good care of our dog and is a great communicator. Our Rosie was nervous about meeting a new care giver and her dogs when we dropped her off. Debbie assured me she was “doing good” and Rosie was relaxed, happy, and very well cared for when we picked her up. Thanks to Debbie and Rover for top-notch care for our pup!”
“The dogs loved Calista’s place! They were so tired when we picked them up and very happy. So glad to have her watch them and she made us feel very comfortable.”
“Atie, her husband, and their pups were amazing sitters! She sent multiple updates everyday and lots o f photos and videos of our pup, while we were away. We will definitely use them again in the future!”
“Our first time having Jared watch our dog, and it was very last minute! Jared had great communication with us and kept us updated on our pup, who was happy and at ease with Jared when we picked him up. Plan to use him again for another Rover stay.”
“Ashleen is awesome and I never worry about my dog in her care. We have used her to watch our Bernedoodle several times and will be doing so in the future. Very kind and compassionate and great communication”
“Phenomenal! Katherine took amazing care of our dog. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She took him on daily walks, and made sure he got lots of cuddles. I would recommend her 10/10! Thank you. ❤️❤️”
“Jessalyn provided outstanding care for our dogs during their stay, even over the busy holiday season. She kept us updated with regular photos and messages, giving us peace of mind that our pets were happy and well cared for. It was clear she made them part of her daily routine, which we truly appreciated. Thanks to her, we were able to enjoy time with family without any worries. 5/5—highly recommend and will definitely book with her again!”
“I left my 3 month old puppy with Beverly. He isn’t house trained yet, but Beverly was able to accommodate that with the potty schedule. She also followed his feeding schedule and medication schedule. Emmett was happy when we picked him up. He got a lot of play time and exercise and loved the toys that were available to him. We got pictures and videos of him throughout the day! We will definitely be return customers!”
“Heidi was so great with our dog.I checked my cameras often and she was so dependable showed up when she said she was. You can tell she really had a love for dogs because was always playing with her. I will definitely be using Heidi the next time I go out of town.”
“Amanda and Cody were amazing! They sent us pictures and kept us updated on how our pups were doing. Our dogs came home happy and sleepy, so we know they had a blast all weekend!”
“Kristen and Spencer are amazing! We have a shy, nervous dog who tends to eat things she shouldn't when she is stressed and has previously had to get surgery after eating a sock at a sitter's house, so we were thrilled that Kristen and Spencer have lots of experience and were confident helping our pup get comfortable. They did an excellent job monitoring her and helping her relax! Indie loved playing with their kids and dogs and I've never had such a good experience sending my dog anywhere! 10/10 would recommend.”
“What an amazing experience! They took our two dogs in, made them feel comfortable and loved them like their own. They sent pics and messages letting me know how things were going, giving us peace of mind to enjoy our trip”

Smithfield dog parents share their Rover experiences
Really felt comfortable leaving our old boy Bentley, with Marissa. I was a bit concerned at first because Marissa has a dog and three cats of her own. As an older dog, Bentley prefers to sleep and pretty much, just be left alone, but the animals got along just fine. I could instantly tell at our introduction meeting that Marissa is an animal lover with a very kind heart. While we were away, Marissa took pictures of the dogs interacting and taking walks ... apparently, many walks ... and sending them to me regularly. Upon return, when I picked Bentley up, Marissa said "I thought you said that Bentley was kind of lay-back and just wanted to sleep. But, he was the first one up waiting to go outside to play and explore". I really appreciate the great job Marissa did with Bentley during our nine-day trip. I had such peace of mind that our dog was being loved and cared for. I would VERY MUCH like to use Marissa's boarding services again, next time we travel.
