“Ric is super! Saber had an awesome time there. Ric sent pictures and videos everyday to us to update Saber’s situation. We booked another stay with Ric again! Highly recommend!”



“Kathy is always so incredible with our dog Carmen. She always has several other sweet dogs there for the weekends, so lots of activity! Kathy is great at keeping us updated on her weekend. Highly recommend her.”



“The best dog sitter in Pittsburgh! Took care of her for over a week while we were away. Sent messages, videos, and pictures everyday. Very social with lots of other dogs to interact with. Definitely booking again!”


“We are so happy with our dog's care by Michael and his wife while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. Our dog is a nervous dog so they paid close attention to her and she settled in nicely. They sent us updates every day with a photo. We will definitely use them again!”


“This was our puppy's first night away from home and I can't say enough about how reassuring it was to have him at Emily and Patrick's. He loved having another dog to play with. They had mountains of toys to entertain him as well. We got pictures and videos. And, more importantly, they kept him content despite his separation distress. We'll definitely come back to them when we need a dogsitter!”


“Amy was amazing! I have a senior Shiba Inu who is 17 and Amy was so good with him! She was very patient with him and offered updates and pictures throughout the day. This was my first time having someone dog sit for me and she eased all of my anxiety about it. I would highly recommend her!”


“Nelia and her family took such good care of my dog. She was excellent with communication and flexible with drop off and pick up. Nash seemed to really enjoy his time with them. I would definitely recommended Nelia and hope to be able to use her again for my dog sitting needs! Thank you, Nelia!”


“THE BEST DOG SITTER EVER!! Rose watched our pup Nathan over the weekend and I will be exclusively user her in the future for any and all pet sitting. The room she has for her Rover guests is clean and very comfortable for dogs. Her two dogs Daisy and Whiskey are really nice and sweet pups and got along great with ours! Rose provided plenty of enrichment and playtime for Nathan and we did not worry at all while he was under her care. Everyday she made sure to update us and send photos which was super nice. Nathan even came down with tummy issues the day before our trip and Rose still accepted our sitting appointment and even got him better again! She has an amazing knowledge of pet nutrition and (after asking permission of course) fed him a diet to help his tummy! While doing this, she even recommended food that would be better suited for his size and type of dog. I’m so happy we found Rose and look forward to many more sitting appointments with her!”


“Chang was so good to our Pup! She took her on walks, sent us lots of pictures showing her comfortable hanging out at her house. Communication was great! Highly recommend!”



“Coco is so happy to have friends at Amy's . Amy is such a great sitter. We never worry about her and she is always good when we pick her up. I highly recommend Amy for a safe, reliable sitter.”


“This was our first time using Rover, and Christine made it an unforgettable experience!! Normally we board our dogs, but since we were going on a short weekend trip we wanted to try something different. Christine made the entire process super stress-free. We dropped our pups off at her home, where she let us inside and gave us a rundown of what she'd be doing each day for them (how many times she takes them for walks, where they sleep, etc.). It made me feel so much better knowing exactly where they'd be staying and the details of their care! Christine sent several pictures each day with updates on how they were doing, which made this anxious dog-mom feel at ease. She truly cared for our dogs as if they were her own - she even sent them home with handmade bow-ties for their collars :') Any time we need to go out of town for a few days again, we're booking with Christine!! 10000/10 would absolutely recommend.”


“I have no words to describe how grateful I am with Sarah. She made Kobe’s first stay amazing. Since I met her I found a very loving and caring person and I felt really secure to leave my dog Kobe with her and her wonderful dogs. She was in touch the whole time sending me pictures and videos. I won’t hesitate to leave Kobe again with her!! Thank you so much again Sarah!! 😍”


“My cat is anxious and shy and Audrey did a great job keeping her comfortable. She was very responsive and I received regular updates. My cat didn’t want to leave her at the end haha. Would recommend her to anyone. Thanks for everything! 🩷”


“Zeiydah is a lifesaver! She helped our family with very short notice. Zeiydah sent pictures multiple times per day to ease the anxiety of leaving our pet behind. We will use her again.”


“Denise was a great sitter for our pup! She was very flexible with scheduling and provided regular updates throughout the stay. Would definitely work with her again and recommend!”


“Adam was great with our dog boone!! You can tell he has a lot of experience with dogs. He Kept us updated daily and sent lots of pics (very cute ones ! ) Boone loves to be outside and Adam took him on so many good walks, visited the dog park , and they even got a pup cup! We will definitely be rebooking in the future”


“Our experience and care with Vidhi was wonderful from start to finish. We were leaving for vacation and our original sitter plans fell through less than a week before leaving. Thankfully, Vidhi was available and promptly responded to the request. She was so accommodating to our schedule and a few changes that popped up. Furthermore, she made sure to make Mira feel comfortable and at ease in her home. Frequent walks, play time, and lots of pictures made us feel comfortable while we were away! Will definitely keep Vidhi in mind for future sitter needs.”


“Another great visit with Christy. Mungo is always very happy to go to Christy’s house and I love knowing that he is happy and safe while I am out of town.”


“Geoffrey was phenomenal and took excellent care of our lovely dog and house. We would absolutely use his services again. Cannot recommend him highly enough.”

Spring Garden dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ashley was amazing with my 5-month-old puppy! My pup is more shy, timid, and anxious, so I was a little nervous about leaving her with someone new. Ashley immediately made me feel comfortable and confident that she was in great hands. She is warm, calm, and welcoming, and she took the time to make sure my puppy felt safe and happy. Ashley sent lots of updates and adorable pictures throughout the stay, which really put my mind at ease. She has a great fenced-in backyard and plenty of toys and activities to keep dogs entertained. My puppy clearly enjoyed her time there and came home happy and relaxed. Ashley is professional, kind, and truly cares about the dogs she watches. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!

Abby and Jason were incredible with our five month old puppy. We were anxious about leaving her for the first time, let alone for a whole week, and we were at ease as soon as we met them and Wall-E. Prior to booking they were communicative and that continued through the stay with daily updates. As soon as I picked her up I could tell she had a great week. As I am writing this she is taking a nap and we have already requested a stay for our next trip!

I highly recommend Natalia!!! She was wonderful with my high anxiety dog. She gave him lots of love, exercise, sent great pictures with updates a few times every day, and he was happy to play with her adorable dog. She let him sleep with her (which is how he sleeps at home) and we appreciate that. She was very flexible with the pick up time. I will absolutely ask her to watch Hudson again!!

Christine was honestly so amazing. From the beginning she was soo helpful! I have never booked through here before or knew how this whole process went, and Christine made this process just so easy. I was so skeptical leaving my old lady while I went out of town due to her having anxiety issues from her shelter stay before I adopted her. But Christine made this a perfect stay for her! I got daily photos and updates and my Bella Bean even made a friend!!! (Christine’s kitten). This was just a lovely experience! And since my Bella Bean is so comfortable with Christine now, I will absolutely be booking again!! Thank you so much Christine!! 💗💗

Vidhi was absolutely amazing! From the moment we booked, her communication was top notch. She was always prompt, clear, and thoughtful. She sent regular updates and adorable photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. My dog had a blast with her, her partner and dog… going on plenty of walks and getting lots of love and attention. The pickup and drop off process was seamless and stress free. You can truly tell she cares deeply about the dogs she watches. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Vidhi and will definitely be booking with her again!

Amber was great with my dog while I was away! She took him for walks every day, she hung out with him, and everything! She did such an excellent job that I don’t think he even cared that I was gone! She provided the best care, definitely recommend booking her!

Lucy and Matt were the best!! Our pup, Frankie, stayed with them for a week while we were away. They sent daily pics, took her on so many adventures, and introduced her to new friends!! We will absolutely be using them in the future and would recommend for anyone who needs a dog sitter for their fur baby!!

Rae did a great job with our dog Rosie. She was very conscientious - took extra care to text me with any concerns, took Rosie for walks, and sent nice pictures. The large, fenced-in yard was great for our 90 lb. English lab - lots of room to enjoy. Thanks Rae - we will definitely use your dog-sitting services again!

Brittany is such an incredible haven for our dog while we’re out of town! She is incredibly in tune with animals’ needs, asking questions about potential quirks and triggers which make us feel confident he is in expert hands. We always know our buddy is safe and loved with her.

Our Pup loves Melissa's home and family! On his last stay he lept out of the car and ran right to the front door. He has had multiple stays on long trips and we know he'll be well taken care of. We always get lots of photos and peace of mind that he's in loving hands!

Maura was great! We left our puppy for the first time and he was nervous at first, but she was kind and patient with him. Her experience with dogs helped us feel confident that she would take the best care of him and be knowledgeable regarding training and any other concerns. Her communication was wonderful. We will definitely use her again!
