“I booked Lauren for the second time, and once again she was amazing! She takes such great care of my Xena and really caters to her needs, especially when it comes to food and routines. I love that she sends plenty of updates throughout the visit, it gives me so much peace of mind. She’s professional, attentive, and genuinely cares. I absolutely love her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”

“Elizabeth and her family were wonderful. She kept us updated on our Fur baby which was very helpful. It was our first time being away from home, so we were a little anxious about the process. She made it very easy for us and we will definitely use her services again! In fact I'm pretty sure that Fur baby wants a playdate!”


“Karen did such a great job making my little Thunder feel at home! While I was away for 2 weeks on vacation to New Zealand, I was delighted to receive pictures via text to see that my little buddy was happy and comfortable! Her two sweet doggies were excellent canine companions to my chihuahua, and I couldn't be happier with the whole thing! I would recommend her to anyone, any time!”
“This is our first time using this service. We had a death in the family and had to head out of state abruptly. I must say, Dajon is phenomenal! From the moment we arrived, he was welcoming and had a calm demeanor towards our fur babies. He sent us photos and videos of our dogs fun adventures throughout the day. He was extremely flexible when we needed to extend our time at short notice. His overall love and care for animals is top notch. I would highly recommend him and will definitely use his services again! Thank you Dajon for taking such good care of Daisy and Diamond!!”

“Emily was amazing with our Goose! Not only was she able to take him on such a short notice, she was excited about having him stay with her. She sent me daily pictures and updates of Goose playing with her pups and having a fantastic time. Emily’s communication was fantastic and helped ease any anxiety I had about not being able to bring Goose with us on a road trip. I cannot say how thankful I am that Emily was able to watch and care for our dog on such a short notice and during the Thanksgiving week. We definitely will be recommending Emily and booking with her for any future needs. Absolutely amazing, I cannot say it enough.”

“Nate & Aylissia were AMAZING!! They were accommodating and booked me same day. They provided frequent updates and took great care of my Puggle. I would highly recommend them!!”

“Hallie was exceptional!!! This was our first time using rover and she made us feel so comfortable with the process. She was always quick to respond to messages and sent tons of photos during Poppy’s stay! She clearly has a love for dogs and took care of Poppy as if she was her own. Couldn’t recommend Hallie enough!”

“Deanna took great care of our pup and was sure to send lots of updates with cute photos and videos. Our dog had fun playing with hers and running around in her spacious yard!”

“Ellen was phenomenal with both of our dogs. We got continuous updates and pictures. Very accommodating to our schedule. Our dogs loved her fenced in yard and Ellen. I would highly recommend and will be using her in the further. Can’t thank you enough!”
“Joy was a great pet sitter while we were out of town. She watched over our two senior dogs, and gave them all the love and attention they needed. Joy was very communicative throughout their stay and understanding as we had delays getting home. We would recommend and use Joy again!”

“Mary was an excellent host. Her two dogs Ellie and Fufu were so welcoming and Laika meshed in with ease. Cannot recommend more highly and I looked forward to booking again and again.”

“Victoria is the best! She is too kind and patient with our hyper puppy and sends us the cutest pictures of him cuddling her and playing with her dogs. Great to know he's in such loving hands, although I worry she's the new favorite and he won't want to ever leave her”

“My two Bichons Cisco and Stunner love Cristi. They were well cared for while in Cristi’s care and her home is set up for dogs. We rebooked and feel so blessed to have found her on Rover. Cristi sent pictures every day to keep us smiling.”

“My dog stayed with Joe for 2 weeks which is the longest time I have ever left her with someone. She came back very happy and healthy. Joe frequently sent me pictures which was very reassuring to me. I heartily reject Joe as a Dogsitter!”

“Michelle and Justin were great sitters for our dog, Tucker! We got regular updates and pictures, and he was so happy when we picked him up. I can tell he was well cared for and got lots of playtime with their little boy. Would book with them again!”

“Andrew and his family were very welcoming to Dolly, and they sent an update during our trip so we knew she was adjusting. At pick up it was easy to tell that she had become one of the gang. We would recommend Andrew to care for your pet!”

“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”

Southeast dog parents share their Rover experiences
I have booked Jaz as a walker due to surgery preventing me from walking my dog for a while. Because of her dependability, professionalism, and communication I also booked Jaz to board my dog in her home for a short vacation. She is set up to board beautifully, and my dog loves her and her family, which is really the true test of a person. I am so glad to find someone that I trust who does such a great job.
Maddy was amazing with my pup! She not only took her out several times a day but was kind enough to make sure the tv was always on and opened the curtains daily so the dog could sit in the window the way she likes. She kept me updated with photos and was amazing. She is also my neighbor and I’ve seen her with other dogs and her level of care is top notch! So grateful for her!

Dan & Shirley were great! They have a nice, fenced in backyard with a doggy door, so my dog was able to go in and out as she pleased. They treated her like one of their own, letting her cuddle on the couch and bed. Their dog is also very friendly seems to get along with everyone. They sent pictures almost every day, and I felt good leaving my dog with them.
