“Absolutely amazing! This the first time I left my dog since rescuing him and his anxiety gave me anxiety 😅. Kristina was great she answered all my questions, she was so kind when I asked stupid ones. She kept my dog safe and happy. She also works with reactive dogs great! Would recommend! Can't say it enough she is amazing!”

“Eric took such great care of Kobe. He was so responsive, accommodating to Kobe’s needs, and was so gracious when traffic delayed our pick up. We will definitely be booking Eric again”

“Tony Is an excellent pet caretaker. I highly recommend him. Tony is very gracious and acommodating. I plan to hire him again to care for my baby, Trixie.”

“I am so so glad I found Victoria on Rover -- highly recommend if you need a sitter for your animal bb! <33 My dog has some health issues which affect his diet, and is a generally shy / anxious lil guy (like myself), and I can't express how grateful and secure I felt knowing Theo felt safe, cared for, and happy while I was away. Victoria has so much experience and compassion working with animals, and you can absolutely tell by her kindness, attentive care, and communication. I appreciated every message and cute picture of my pup Theo on walks, smiling, and relaxing with Victoria (and Remi, Nova, and Luey!) In addition, I appreciated the add-on booking allowing Victoria to come pick and drop Theo off. The ease of the booking and Victoria being such a lovely sitter eased so much of my mental load and stress of traveling and being away from my pup, and I can't recommend her enough. I think Theo says woof in agreement, since he came back so happy :) This was my first time booking with Victoria but I am so happy to have found a wonderful sitter and would love to rebook when I will need one for Theo again :)”


“Zyiana was great! She was so flexible to accommodate my travel times. She sent great pics and videos during updates giving me great peace of mind while I was away.”


“Madeline and her husband Roman were completely welcoming and professional. They watched my dog for 8 nights. Flexible drop off and pick up. The updates with pictures throughout the week puts your mind at ease as well. I would recommend Madeline 10 out of 10 times.”

“Tim was great! Took Billie on many walks and kept us updated the entire time we were away. Would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dogsittee”

“Elizabeth was amazing!! This was our first time leaving our girl with a dog sitter via Rover, and she made it such a pleasant stress free experience. She sent so many pictures and updates of Layla daily, it left me feeling reassured and happy knowing she was in loving hands. I would highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone!”

“Bryce was great with Alfie! It took Alfie some time to settle in which made me a bit nervous but Bryce ensured me that he had things under control and Alfie would be okay. He was even patient with me because I was worried! Bryce was also very accommodating when I had the dates incorrect due to the time zone. He quickly responded and modified the date. He was great! Thank you Bryce!”

“They were absolutely wonderful with Georgia and Rue! I got plenty of updates and photos, and I could tell my girls were happy and well cared for. Everything was smooth and stress-free from start to finish. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend!”


“Howie LOVED staying with Sarah and Anthony! They regularly sent photos over the weekend, so I was always comforted knowing my pup was safe and having fun. It was great knowing that he and their own dogs got along great - it made for a very sleepy Howie once he got home. We will definitely have him stay with them again the near future!”

“Anjali took very good care of my pups while I was away. She messages back quickly with correspondence. She also sent pic updates, which I love and appreciates so much. I highly recommend this rover sitter. Her son also had a lot of fun playing with one of my pups. All and all, very positive experience. Thank you!”

“My dog doesn't like to be away from home, but Rhea makes her feel comfortable and takes excellent care of all her needs, also during the recent heat wave. Sage was happy and in great shape when I returned after a longer trip. While I was away, Rhea kept me up-to-date on how Sage was doing, which is very helpful for peace of mind. I will always ask Rhea when I need help with dog sitting. I highly recommend her.”

“Pepsi had a fabulous time with Renee and Toffee. They were welcoming and very accommodating of our schedule (flexible with pick up/drop off). Sent regular photos and updates, took Pepsi out on multiple walks in a day, and played a lot with Pepsi. Highly recommend, Renee!”


“Our dog is super shy and anxious about just about everything. Nicole and her husband were amazing. We had lots of messages and photos (Maple even helped with their Ikea furniture one day, smart dog!) She wasn't drinking enough water and they made sure she stayed hydrated by giving her stock and even using a syringe for a day or so to help. When I picked her up she was super excited to see me, but (and this is HUGE) she kept going back to them for scratches and to say hello. This never happens even to people that Maple knows well. She had a great stay and we will definitely go back again! Thanks!!”

“Deena was so good with my dog for the week I left him with her! She sent pics/vids without me asking, and even may have found a food he will actually eat consistently (he's picky).. Book her. You're welcome.”

Kristina was so patient and sweet with Olive, who can be nervous and shy. By day 2, Kristina was sending us pictures of Olive belly up and happily napping next to Kristina on the couch and Olive completely made herself at home. Olive’s stay overlapped with a major heatwave, and Kristina made sure to get Olive out early in the AM for a nice walk each morning before it got too hot. I would definitely recommend Kristina for attentive and loving care for your pet!

Anjie was fantastic! She consistently kept me informed and spent time walking and playing with Milo during his stay. She also showered him with love and attention, making him feel comfortable with both her and Theo. Milo was well cared for, and I couldn't be happier with her service. I will certainly book her again in the future. Her care eased my mind while I was traveling. Thank you, Anjie!

Jessica did a great job as usual! She is truly the best nanny for our four-legged son. She spends a lot of quality time with him, and Yoshi came back happy and relaxed. Jessica shared plenty of updates and memories throughout the stay, and we always feel completely safe leaving Yoshi in her care. Highly recommended!

Emma took such great care of my dog. This was my first time using Rover, and she made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos, and my dog looked so happy and comfortable the whole time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Emma, and I would absolutely book with her again

Marlowe had a good time with Jake! We weren’t able to initially meet for our meet and greet, but surely made up for it during drop off! Jake was attentive to my overview of my care plan for Marlowe and had a fresh bowl of water ready to go for Marlowe upon arrival. He shared with me the space that Marlowe would be using which made me feel comfortable knowing my pup son would be well taken care of, he reviewed Marlowe’s profile, which is very important so he was aware of Marlowe’s needs before the boarding stay! Jake kept me informed, updated, and provided photos - which always allows me to breathe a sigh of relief knowing Marlowe is happy! Jake even shared when something accidentally broke and offered to rectify it himself- which shows character and integrity - two things that are a must for me when deciding the best place and the best Rover to entrust with my Marlowe! It’s safe to say I’d recommend Jake and that Marlowe will be a returning pal!

I was in a tough situation and had to go to the hospital. I contacted my trusted pals for my best friend aka this rover sitter, and they very quickly were able to coordinate pickup with one of my friends so that I didn’t have to worry about my dog while i was in the hospital. Truly amazing!
Tony did a great job caring for Honey, a very energetic puppy who keeps you engaged. The video and photo updates provided us contentment that Honey was having a great time. Thank you Tony for providing an attentive and fun environment for Honey. Honey had such a great time that after she got over the excitement of being back home she crawled back in her carrier asking to visit her new friends.
