“Shaylonn & Richard are amazing! They made it so easy to arrange a meet n' greet, then generously let us adjust our drop off and pick up time as our travel plans fluctuated. I could tell from the daily updates and their attention to his mood and playing that my little dog was so happy and well cared for in their home. Whenever I need to travel, I will definitely book another stay for my dog with them. Highly recommend!”

“I’m not sure who is more in love with Patty; my pups or myself.?? Very informative with multiple pictures. Very attentive to both of our needs. A very easy experience with so much compassion and excitement at the same time. Don’t hesitate to embark on using Patty..she is awesome as well as “Uncle Jim”? sharing his chair.?? Will definitely use again!! Very open to your schedule at the very last minute. We love you Patty!!”

“Saphire was super great for us!! It was our first time using Rover so we weren't sure what to expect but in the end it was so helpful! We left our pup Lee-Lou with her over the weekend while we went to New Orleans and Lee-Lou was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with her other dogs. Saphire was extremely responsive with texts and also sent us cute pictures of Lee-Lou having fun. She made us feel very comfortable the moment we dropped our dog off with her. I picked up Lee-Lou on Monday and everything was packed up and Lee-Lou was ready for a nap. :) We will for sure let Saphire watch over our pup in the future!! Thank you Saphire! :) :) Theresa & Taylor, Lee-Lou”

“Dennis is dependable and always communicates well. We love the updates he gives when our pups are there. He is very accommodating. His pups are super friendly and our dogs love to play with them in their spacious backyard. We will definitely continue to use Dennis!”

“Lindsey and her husband were great and accommodating! I needed a sitter last minute, reached out to her and she accepted instantly. Was willing to do a meet and greet as well. Got update messages, videos and pictures. My sweet Loki does get separation anxiety and won’t eat when he’s away from us, but seeing the pictures of him snuggled in bed and in his natural habitat reassured us that he was definitely happy! Would definitely use her again!!!”

“Celeste is a super sitter - 5 star plus plus. She took excellent care of our chocolate lab, a very senior member of our family who is 17+ people years old and needs a little extra help. We are very happy with the love and care shown our old girl, and have found our new sitter of choice.”

“Melissa showed great care for our fur baby Valentino. She ensured he was engaged and even purchased toys for him to play with while under her care. She kept in regular contact with us and shared lots of photos to put us at ease. I absolutely recommend Melissa for your pet care needs.”

About: I love to bond with pets. Dogs especially, they are like built in best friends. However, sadly I am not a fan of house cats. I work from 5am-2pm daily, and I have college on Tuesday evenings.

They have hearts too and should be treated as so.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sour Lake
Tawnee went above and beyond for our dog, Kaiser. He can be extremely intimidating when you first meet him, and I was honestly a little skeptical at first because Kaiser can be a lot to handle sometimes. I requested extra meet-and-greet visits before the overnight stay, and Tawnee was completely open and accommodating to that. She handled Kaiser so well and made both of us feel comfortable. This was actually the first time we’ve ever had someone stay with Kaiser while we weren’t there, and she truly exceeded my expectations. I will absolutely be booking with her again in the future, and I highly recommend her to anyone with pets who have extra needs—she’s amazing.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
