“Jennifer and her family took amazing care of Finn. Also, their dog is super sweet and played well with my dog. Cant wait to have Jennifer sit Finn again soon!”

“Mary and her family were absolutely wonderful sitters for Grizzy! They took great care of him during a cold snap, making sure he was warm and comfortable. Mary sent wonderful updates and absolutely adorable pictures, and I would recommend her to anyone!”

“Lindsey did a fantastic job of taking care of Coco. During my trip, I had travel delays and Lindsey was more than accommodating to help with last minute changes. She gave me frequent updates on Coco and I felt very at ease knowing that my fur baby was in very good hands. Would highly recommend!”

“Amy was great! Our dog Cobi was with her for 10 days. I felt at ease leaving him with her because I know he was being spoiled and loved on. She sent many pictures and updates. He even came home with a few more toys then he left with. Thanks Amy!”

“Edith took wonderful care of my little guy Gatsby and sent lots of updates which was so reassuring! He clearly got lots of play time but she also made sure he had a spot to go if he needed a break. Edith clearly knows dogs and pack tendencies and I knew Gatsby was in good hands with her two aussies. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Gatsby in her wonderful care again. Thanks Edith!”


“Scott and his dog Lucy were a great match for Roo! I received multiple picture updates and he was great at communicating. We met up beforehand to ensure a good match, and it was clear Scott has a natural way with dogs. Would gladly rebook!”

“Joan was flexible and so understanding when we had to change plans last minute. She also took exceptional care of our dog including applying a salve to a wound and doing medication multiple times a day after we had to take our pup to the vet right before the visit started. 10/10 would recommend!”

“We appreciate the photo updates and great care Astro gets with Da Yeon and her partner. Both kind and take him for walks and let him snuggle with them on the couch- they treat him like family.”

“Robert was great with our puppy and provided regular updates. Very flexible with working with us on a pick up time when circumstances caused some big delays on our end.”

“I would absolutely recommend Yoki and Derek to care for Wrigley again! Wrigley was well cared for and played all weekend, coming home a tired pup! Very nice photo updates.”

“Julie was absolutely fantastic. She knows dog behavior very well and I completely trusted her with my 12 week old puppy who is very nervous. Julie went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was comfortable and well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Ronalisa is very kind. She has a really nice yard for Spunky and Boss to run around. Very responsive. My dogs enjoyed their staycation with her and her fur babies. Spunky and Boss came home tired and happy. Recommend her 10/10.”

About: I am a lover of all animals. I’m currently a veterinary assistant and have been for 4 years. I am in school to be a veterinary technician right now, and I graduate in May 2026. I have experience with a wide variety of animals, such as cats and dogs, horses, cattle, goats, sheep, rabbits, Guinea pigs, rats and mice, so I’d say I’m very knowledgeable about animals. I have had dogs my whole life and cats for the past 14 years of my life. I started dog sitting for neighbors when I was 12 years old. I have had dogs of many sizes, so I can handle whatever breed you have :) I also am able to administer any medication or fluids if necessary! My schedule changes all the time, but I can be very flexible around work and school. If you are flexible with times, the more likely it is that I’m available. When I’m caring for your pet, I follow your rules. I’m very good at keeping an eye and ear out for trouble if your dog tends to get into stuff they shouldn’t. If anything were to happen where your pet needs veterinary attention, I have 3 veterinarians that I work for that I can contact right away for advice and help.
“My dog had a great time staying with Grace while I was out of town for the weekend! She sent lots of pictures and updates so I knew she was doing well. She got lots of walks and came home super happy and tired. She even whined when we left to say she was sad she was leaving lol. We would definitely book with Grace again!”

“Suellen was so great to Ari! She kept me updated with photos and videos and was very lenient with pick up/drop off times!! I would 100% recommend Suellen!!!”

“Al and Hannah were phenomenal! They were very responsive and sent a lot of updates through my dog's stay. It made me feel very comfortable leaving Cas with them, and I absolutely will again if the need arises. Highly recommend!”

“We love Margaret & so does our pup, she’s at ease whenever she gets to the house and sees her favorite dog sitter. She’s the only Rover we choose and we couldn’t be happier with her excellent care!”

“If you're seeking a loving, attentive and communicative caretaker for your dog/s, you will find all that and more with Manuela. My dogs and i spend 24/7 together and Manuela cared for my pups for the first time we were separated. Needless to say I was anxious and nervous about displacing my pups from their home, routine and familiar surroundings. With the compassion, positive and gentle energy, Manuela made the adjustment possible. Pics of the pups daily fun and nap times were always provided. I became relaxed and confident I made the right choice in selecting Manuela to create a loving home and comfortable environment for the 4 days of their "vacation", making my time away from them manageable. 🙏 Manuela and hugs from me and my pack til we see you again!”

South Campus dog parents share their Rover experiences
Scott was very accommodating and communicative, we got several pictures and even a short video of our dog out playing in the fresh snow. Our dog has a fear of smooth floors and Scott was able to layout enough rugs and beds that Barley was comfortable. Will book again.

Trevor's been very responsive and helpful in setting up boarding, even when my schedule has been uncertain and we've needed multiple exchanges to sort out dates. He seems to like having Ollie and Ollie seems to be getting all the walks and cuddles he wants. Thanks!

They were very kind and communicative! Sent lots of pictures with their updates which is always reassuring. They asked a lot of good questions and wanted to make sure they knew how to best care for Joji during his stay. They were very understanding and helped answer all the questions I had too. I plan on booking with them again in the future!

Zhuhan accepted our booking after our previous sitter canceled and was incredibly responsive from the start. She asked thoughtful questions to ensure our dog’s comfort and sent updates every morning and evening. We were very happy with her care and would highly recommend her.
