“Sharon was great. I had to find a host last minute, as my plans came up suddenly. I contacted her a day and a half before I needed to drop off my dog. She got back to me within an hour of me contacting her, and I had a confirmation within an hour and a half. My dog is often bolting for the door (and has escaped from other caretakers) when I come to pick him up. When I went to pick him up from Sharon, he was happy and wagging his tail. He was happy to see me, but he was off lead & listening to Sharon, happy to follow her, as well. He ran into her house to get his belongings, instead of bolting for the car. He was happy that he got to sleep in her room, sit on the couch, and go to the dog park with her. I would definitely recommend Sharon, and I would definitely use her again.”
“Dana was great! Abby had a great time there playing with her dogs and getting lots of exercise in her fenced in back yard. She slept for twelve hours straight when she got home.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving our dog Harper with Christina and Matt when we were away for the weekend of our daughter’s wedding. It was the first time Harper had ever stayed with anyone other than family and we weren’t sure how she would be in an unfamiliar place with another dog. It was obvious when we went for a meet and greet that Christina is a dog lover and Harper warmed up to her quickly. They have a great dog friendly yard and we received plenty of updates to let us know that she was doing fine. She definitely got plenty of exercise and a lot of love. Christina was understanding about Harper’s separation anxiety and was willing to accommodate her. We will definitely be repeat clients!”
“Miki is amazing. I highly recommend her. I know my dog had the time of his life with her. He sacked out as soon as we got home! She is so thoughtful, aware, caring, and trustworthy. Hanu also enjoyed her husband and dog Sunny too. All of them have an energy that puts you at ease immediately. I received lots of pictures and updates. Our dogs loved each other and were connected at the hip in most pictures. I have never left my dog overnight before. She made me feel so comfortable as a first timer. I would use her again 10000000000000%.”
“This is my first time using Rover (I have used large boarding kennels for years), and I could not be happier with the care provided by Elizabeth. She sent daily photos and sometimes videos of my dog - who was obviously happy and having a great time. Liz has a competent, loving way with animals and a lot of knowledge on how to care for them. For example, Liz found and removed a tic I had not noticed and was not aware of. I recommend Liz without reservation.”
“Kimberly is absolutely the best. She sends wonderful, fun pictures, bakes healthy pup treats and is just a joy at every turn. Our dog Lily loves her time with Kimberly and we are at ease while away knowing she is in such sweet care. Thank you soo much!!! :)”
“Pick up and drop off were seamless. Leanne was super nice. She kept me updated daily with pictures. Mack was very happy when we picked him up and in great spirits. Thank you!”
“Laura did a wonderful job watching our chocolate lab over Memorial Day weekend. Great communication and lots of pictures of him playing inside and out Perfect dropoff location for long weekends and vacations in the Newport, RI area.”
“Celina is great dog sitter, she cared for my dog while visiting out of state. My dog looked calm, and happy around Celina. I would recommend her as dog sitter.”
“Yunshu was great with my dog. She was very accommodating meeting with us beforehand and working with us on dates. She sent videos, pics, and great feedback. I would highly recommend her!”
“Kelly and family cared for our dog Louie overnight at their home. Louie was well cared for and happy to play in their large fenced yard. Kelly and her children are a kind, welcoming family. I would have our dog stay again without hesitation.”
“Brian always provides great care for Chloe when I have to travel for work or a short vacation. I can count on that Chloe will be happy and well cared for by Brian. I highly recommend him!”
“Nick and his wife were a life saver. I felt so much better about Diesel being with them over being in a kennel. They were able to accommodate my stay on a short notice too. They treated Diesel like their own and snuggled with him all weekend. He came back tired and well cared for. I highly recommend Nick to take care of your pup!!”
About: We’re dog lovers through and through! I grew up with a sweet 9-year-old Yorkie, and my husband has raised two playful Golden Retrievers. we both adore dogs of all sizes-from tiny pups to big, goofy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles at home, we make sure every moment is filled with love and care! I’m a Japanese military spouse and currently not working. I’m flexible with schedule and happy to accommodate your needs and provide loving care for your dogs!! My house has a fenced yard with a female dog and no kids. Your dog can lounge on the couch, and the environment is safe with no small objects that might harm your dog.
“Karen and Chris were fantastic! They are such a nice family that took excellent care of our pup. They were great with communication and pictures. I knew our dog was safe and loved! Highly recommend!!!”
“Keasha is wonderful! I've have 2 sitters I use with the Rover app and Keasha is one of them. She has this wonderful calmness and welcoming personality. I have used her time and time again because she is phenomenal. She often updates me on how my dog is doing and send me pictures. Which is great when you're away and you know your dog is in the best of care. I have used Keasha with my previous dog Russell who was a senior dog and now again with my newly adopted dog Scooby. She's the best!!”
“Jean is an absolutely lovely lady and I felt so comfortable leaving my Lil Emmett with her while I was in Montana. She sent pictures and updated me daily about Emmett. I appreciate her and will definitely book with her in the future. 🐶🐾🌸💕”
“Noël was a fantastic sitter for our mini goldendoodle Reuben and we would not hesitate to reach out to her again! She was very communicative and would send quick updates and pictures throughout the week we were gone to share how Reuben was doing. He loved all the cuddles and walks she took him on and he came home really calm and settled right back into his routine! Five star rating from both him and us.”
“Made our new foster, most likely our pup to be, feel at right at home with all the snuggles, scratches, and walks. Jessica, Justin and little JJ are the best to our pups!! Couldn’t have been luckier to have found them on Rover!!”
“Suzanne was fantastic with my pup in the four days I was out of town. Goldie was very nervous during the meet and greet and when first getting dropped off, but Suzanne made her feel right at home. She kept me updated with pictures and texts each day. I would not hesitate to recommend or use Suzanne in the future!”
