“This was a very last minute booking and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Rob was extremely flexible with drop off and pickup time. Responded right away to my messages and sent updates. Will absolutely book again the next time we are in Cincinnati. Thank you for a great stay!!”

“Tricia watched my 2 cats for a week and a half. She wasn't just a sitter, she LOVED on the kitties and the kitties loved on her and her 2 sweet kids as well! Her home is very clean, nice, very warm and homey feeling. She has all the accommodations needed to watch cats and dogs! She kept me posted with lots of pictures and updates which made it so much easier to relax and not worry while on vacation!”


“Karen has watched Malakai twice for us now- the second visit was for over a week. He was so happy to see Karen when I dropped him off for a second stay so I could tell his previous experience had been a positive one. We received lots of fun pictures and Karen kept me updated on his stay all the time. He looked great when I picked him up the second time and it is obvious he was well taken care of. The best thing about Karen is she is very knowledgeable on dog behavior. She really is an expert read which means she is very capable of discerning dogs' needs and keeping multiple dogs safe. We are very happy with our experience!! Thanks Karen!!”

“My puppy was well looked after with Dianna E and her family. She has 2 other friendly dogs in the house that seemed to adjust to my 9 month old puppy quite quickly. Dianna sent me a picture or video almost every day which helped ease my worries. This was the first time I left my puppy with anyone so I naturally was concerned about him fitting in. She has a very large back yard and I know my dog had plenty of exercise. She is trust worthy and loves the dogs which is a must with a sitter. Thanks so much!”

“Lauren was amazing with Luna and Annie. It was my first time booking with her but right from the beginning the “potatoes” felt like at home. Lauren made them feel very comfortable as soon as she met them. Throughout the stay she kept sending me pics of the pups just playing or sleeping on comfy blankets and it made me realize that they were truly being taken care off. For the most important thing is to have peace of mind knowing that my pups are being loved and cared for and that’s what Lauren did! Will definitely book with her again as I travel frequently for work!”

“We love sending our dog Bratwurst to stay with Amir! Amir is always kind and communicative and is very knowledgeable about exactly what our dog needs to have a safe and happy experience. Would highly recommend Amir and we will definitely plan to work with him again!”

“Lisa was absolutely wonderful with our fur babies! We had never used rover before and were a little nervous leaving our dogs for so long over the holidays, but Lisa made me feel comfortable right away! She sent me multiple updates and pictures of my dogs everyday we were gone. She went above and beyond and my dogs were well taken care of! Will definitely use Lisa again!”

“Onyx had the best time with Taylor and Brian and their sweet dog Shiloh! He typically lives in an apartment so he was thrilled to have access to a fenced in yard. Taylor and Brian were very kind to accommodate a last-minute extra night’s stay after our travel plans home went awry. They were very sweet and understanding.”

“Katie did such a great job watching Reggie while my husband and I were out of town for a few days! We received plenty of updates and could tell he was well taken care of when we picked him up. Will definitely be using Katie again!”

“Ideal situation...Dion works from home so Skye spent most of her time out and about. Dion also has a dog, Gabby, who was a built in playmate for Skye so I’m sure she had more exercise and playtime than her usual day. Lastly, Dion has two adorable children who played with Skye like she was their dog. I’m surprised she wanted to come home! Thanks Dion!”

“Donna and her family were so sweet and caring to our pup Mesa! It gave me a lot of peace of mind to leave her with them for the weekend. She is a great communicator, was super easy to work with, and definitely treated Mesa like family! We will continue booking with her for sure :)”


“Great experience. Leia was very well taken care of. Pictures of her were sent to me. The whole family was very nice and it was obvious to me they love dogs. I will be requesting them again!”

“Hailey watched my little dogs Maverick, Jax, Willow, and Lulu for 4 days and I think she is WONDERFUL!! Not only did I receive pictures daily but videos as well. I was so impressed by her boarding area it was clean, spacious and very professional. Hailey has a way with dogs and you can tell she enjoys taking care of them very much. When I picked them up they all were clean and had the cutest bandannas on they looked ADORABLE!! I know I will book Hailey in the future and I have already recommended her to several friends!!”
Southgate pet parents share their Rover experiences
Madison and Adam are the best sitters ever! They send plenty of pictures and Minnie got plenty of walks. They were flexible when I had to drop her off and pick her up a little after the original scheduled time due to flights. Minnie came back, so happy and energized. She had a mini vacation herself! I definitely recommend them to anyone.

I needed a place to board my dog for a night while my husband and I went to a wedding. Our dog has been to standard daycare facilities but isn't fond of being left alone so we didn't like the idea of her staying in a kennel. Alison was really accommodating and assured us that our sweet girl would get plenty of attention and play time with her own dogs, which is perfect because our girl loves to make friends. We were afraid that she'd have trouble settling in because she's very attached to us, but we were put at ease when Alison sent a picture of our girl sleeping on a comfy couch. They also made sure she had her allergy meds and food. This is exactly the environment and attention our dog needs to be comfortable being away from us for a bit. Thank you so much for watching her!

This was Mango’s first Rover sitter and as a (possibly overly so) doting dog mom I was a little anxious. Lexi was fantastic, providing daily updates and pictures that really helped put me at ease. Mango, on the other hand, clearly had a great time and enjoyed her vacation thoroughly. I would absolutely book with Lexi again!

Stuart & Tracie were absolutely wonderful with Stanley! He went on lots of walks, they sent great pics of him the entire time and Stanley came home exhausted from his fun stay with them! Thanks so much you guys for taking such great care of our Stanley ; ) We will definitely be booking with them a lot in the future :)

Corey was great to work with! He was responsive to messages, sent pictures and gave updates on how our boy, Arlo was doing during his stay! He accommodated our slightly challenging travel schedule that made drop off later than we anticipated, which was very much appreciated! If we’re in the area we would have our dog stay with him again!

Jennifer and her family took great care of our 14 year old husky shepherd. She was safe, well cared for and enjoyed the company and love from them. They communicated easily and sent pictures…our trip was amazing and we never worried for a minute! Thank you Jennifer!!!!

Tyler was amazing with Finn. Super communicative the entire time which gave me a ton of peace of mind while I was away. He sent plenty of photos and videos, and you could tell Finn was genuinely happy and comfortable the whole stay. Tyler clearly cares and treats your dog like his own. Everything was smooth, easy, and stress free from start to finish. Would absolutely book with Tyler again without hesitation.
