“Tara was the best possible sitter Nala could have ? She knows dogs very well, and how to handle 1-2 yr old puppy energy. Tara watched Nala for almost 2 weeks as I was traveling to get married, she sent several pictures and updates along the way which made me feel good knowing Nala was well loved and cared for. Will be using Tara again.”

“Dara is amazing! This is our first time we've ever used her and our boy Bruce had the best time! Would def recommend. Thanks so much Dara for taking such good care of him. -Morgan”

“Overall, this was the first time I ever used drover this woman was over and above the best Dog Sitter ever. She treated my pebbles, as if it was her own. I would highly recommend her and I plan on using her again.”

“Britney and her family took such great care of Homer. They loved him like their own. Britney is very communicative and flexible. Homer enjoyed playing with their dogs and sweet children. I will definitely board with Britney again.”

“Julie was so, so wonderful to work with! I am so glad I found her! I have never used Rover before and have a brand new 2 month old kitten with some medical needs that I couldn’t board yet or leave with any family. She was very flexible to accept my kitten and the days I needed. Julie was welcoming and kind and did a great job with my little one. She sent daily updates and pictures of the activities they did. She made this process super easy and smooth. I will absolutely be reaching back out to her again if I need to board my cat again. Thank you so much, Julie!!”

“This was Cheatnut’s first time away from home and Kashawna made this experience amazing for him.. She took excellent care of him and gave updates and pics of how he was doing.. Very nice family and also very knowledgeable.. Thanks again and I will definitely use her in the future”

“Madi and her family were so welcoming and loving to my girls. They provided peace of mind and were accommodating to our extra needs due to being stuck out of town longer than anticipated. She sent multiple daily updates with photos showing me they were in the best of care. My girls experienced so many cuddles, walks, and a lot of playtime…they may have even been reluctant to leave Madi’s home! The communication was beyond excellent and I for sure trust her with my dogs again! 🐾🩷💕”

“Another great experience using Heather to take care of our sweet Zelda! We always rest assured she is taken care of and loved while we’re away! Receive daily pictures and updates and love the peace we feel knowing Zelda is safe and happy! Will continue to use Heather every time! Zelda loves her and her family and so do we!!”


“Garrett was amazing with my two dogs! We needed a sitter at the last minute and he was very flexible with us allowing us to schedule a quick meet and greet before the booking. It’s worth mentioning that one of my dogs can be a handful at times but Garrett was so patient with him. The communication was frequent all week long (including sending pictures). My dogs got along well with his sweet dog as well. We definitely hope to use his services again!”

“Jen and her family were amazing with out dog Holly. They took her on long walks, pampered her and loved on her like she was their own dog It's difficult for us to find sitters for Holly as she is reactive around other dogs and we are thrilled to have found her. We highly recommend her and will using her again in the future.”

“I can see why Jessica has amazing reviews. We boarded our lil precious pup for a work trip and we got updates and pictures twice daily. Maple her golden doodle and her daughter were amazing with our lil Pup. The sweetest moment was when we picked her up her daughter was standing there with a lil card and toy for her new friend. I have the precious card on my refrigerator. It’s so nice to find good people to leave your pup with. We moved to area recently and we got lucky with finding Jessica and her family. We 100% recommend Jessica and her family to board your furry family member. Thank you:)”

“Absolutely incredible! Would recommend to anyone looking for an amazing, kind and caring person to watch over your pups. She kept me updated with all the pictures and videos of my baby 💕 Home away from home for the pups!!”

“Andre and her family did a fantastic job caring for our mini bernedoodle! Andre was prompt with all communication and scheduling was easy. Her home is welcoming and Biscotti really enjoyed playing with their sweet lab and snuggling her kids. We could tell Biscotti was well-cared for when we brought her back home- she was calm and happy and jumped right back into our family routines- like she had a great vacation too! Thanks, Andre and fam! We’ll definitely book with Andre again.”

“They are the best ! Our dog Deacon runs to them and gets so excited to stay with them. They are great about keeping in touch and sending photos of Deacon every day they have them. Highly recommend ! We never worry about Deacon when they have them, we know he’s happy and loved there !”

“My family and I were going away for an extended period of time and needed a sitter for our doggy while we were away. I checked out some Rover options and decided on a sitter and she quickly accepted my request. I went to her house to visit prior to leaving my dog with her, and she and her husband were very welcoming opening their home to me to show me where my doggy would be housed for the extended period of time. That made me feel very comfortable leaving her there under their care in that as most of you know, our doggies are like our children and that’s most definitely the way we feel about our dog. Mary and her husband took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She sent lots of pictures and I could tell that she was being loved and that she was comfortable and happy throughout the stay which made me feel very good and at ease during our trip, Thank you Mary for taking such great care of our dog, and I would highly recommend her to other dog owners looking for someone that is compassionate about dogs snd has a beautiful home that is very well suited for pets to be really comfortable and safe.”

Emerson watched our Hally for us after her spay surgery, it was a last minute booking but she was more than happy to help. She was very personable, friendly and communicative and sent lots of adorable pictures of our sweet girl. It was clear that Hally had a great time with her when we came to pick her up. We had absolutely zero concerns while Hally was in her care and we would love to book with her again!
