“Jill and her husband did a great job of taking care of Luna. We heard from her everyday while we traveled and whenever we had questions they always responded pretty quickly. They both are very calm and patient with the dogs - who can sense that. Very experienced and professional. Definitely will look to use them again when needed!”

“Teddy spent 2 days with Ali and her family. He is still young and likes to play a lot and they spent plenty of time playing with him. He came home so tired he pretty much crashed the rest of the day! This is Teddy's first time at Ali's and only his 2nd with a pet sitter so receiving updates and pictures put my mind at ease. I would definitely book with Ali again.”

“I always feel good leaving my Chloe with Lizzie. She loves her and takes such good care of her. Her communication is excellent which puts my mind at ease. I have felt this way over the 4 years Chloe has stayed with her.”


“Liane is amazing! Our dog, Muki, had some medical issues arise during her stay and Liane handled everything as if Muki was her own dog. We were highly impressed with her quick action, flexibility and attentiveness during this situation as we were out of the country and unable to handle any of it ourselves. Very few would be able to handle this the way she did. We will always book with Liane!”

“It’s never easy to leave my baby behind, but the experience was so much better knowing she was in excellent hands with Hommer and his wife. I thought I was the one who had gone away for a mini-vacation, but I think my dog was the one getting the getaway treatment! She was taken on multiple long walks (and she’s a tough one to handle) and received tons of cuddles and couch time. I got many updates. In fact, I never once had to ask for an update! Let me just say this; when I came to pick my dog up, she kept jumping between greeting me and running back to them. I mean what more evidence could anyone need?! We are already booking her next stay!”

“Satyam took great care of our 3 month old puppy. He sent pictures and updates throughout the visit and our puppy left very happy! We would recommend booking with Satyam.”

“We had a wonderful experience with James and Lisa. They took excellent care of Teddy, and it was clear he had a great time while we were away. They were very responsive to messages and sent pictures that really put us at ease, especially leaving our six month old puppy. When I picked Teddy up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly well loved. We would absolutely book with them again.”

“I really liked Sierra, loved how she kept me updated and sent pictures. It is very convenient that she is close, easy to get in touch with and has experience with big and small dogs. Very kind as well !”

“Elena and her family are the best. Our dog was blessed with many walks and we were provided tons of pictures and updates. Their home was perfect for our pet during his stay and she was flexible with pick up and drop off. Will use again if able to do so.”

“Nina and her family are amazing!!! She took care of my 3y/o yorkie named Tokyo for 4 days. She sent me pictures and videos each day showing how well Tokyo was doing and adapting to his new environment. I was immediately put at ease knowing that Tokyo was in a loving environment. Tokyo loved his time there and even began napping on the same schedule as her two other dogs…he really did become a part of their family!! I love that!!! ❤️ She brushed him and kept his eyes clean daily and he even let Nina brush his teeth at night! I couldn’t ask for anything more. I’m so happy 😀. I will definitely use Nina again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Carl was fantastic. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my dog as if it were his own. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book Carl again. Highly recommend!”

“Judy was awesome with my Baillie. I was anxious about leaving her with a perfect stranger, but after meeting Judy and seeing how comfortable my dog felt, I knew she would be in great hands. Judy did an excellent job taking care of my dog and all of her Little Diva demands. I can tell Baillie enjoyed every moment spent with Judy. I can’t say enough about the great job Judy did taking care of Baillie, and look forward to booking her again when the need arises. Thank you Judy for doing such an awesome and amazing job looking after Baillie. Judy also changed her outfits daily which made her feel even more at home… I would give Judy 10+ stars!!!! Team Judy!!!!!!!!🐾🐾🐾🐾😃😃☺️☺️☺️☺️”

“Juli made it possible for us to travel over the holidays and know that Boo was safe, happy, and loved. Fabulous communication before and throughout our stay. Boo was welcomed into their home and treated as part of the family. She came home happy and well-adjusted, which isn't always the case after a boarding. Many thanks to Juli and her family!”

“April is phenomenal and very nice!! Highly recommend, she asked great questions for anticipated care about my dog and provided daily updates in line with our preferences. I could visually how happy my dog was during and after his overnight visit which was about 4 days. This is his 2nd 4 day stay with April. April’s pup is very sweet and friendly and I was happy to see how quickly our pups became friends. All around great care, I will definitely book with April again!”

“Our dog Higgins had a great time visiting with Valerie! We got regular updates, adorable photos and videos which made us concerned that he wouldn't want to come home -- it was clear that he was being treated to a fun time. Would definitely recommend!”

“Sujan was amazing boarding Aspen for 3 nights. He came back to us relaxed and happy and he definitely had a great time. He was well cared and we received a lot of pictures. We will definitely be using Sujan again! Thank you so much!!”

Sterling pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cesar watched our dog Monty for the weekend while we were away. He is such a nice man and is great with animals! He has the perfect fenced in back yard for doggies to run and play. Our dog was in a great mood when we picked him up! We're looking forward to booking with him again in the future.

We had a last minute cancellation with another sitter due to a family emergency, and Ksenia was gracious enough to have us book last minute. She was accommodating to my dog’s needs and provided great care to him. We’re super grateful for her help and recommend her to watch your pet!

Buğra and Özden did a wonderful job watching my dog, Watson, for a few days. This was my first time finding a dog sitter via Rover, but they made me and Watson feel comfortable from the first time we met. I got regular updates while I was away and they were flexible and kind when my return got delayed. Watson warmed up to them quickly and was happy and healthy when I picked him up. I would absolutely recommend their services and I’m relieved to have found such great sitters for Watson in the future!

Vigneshwaran was an excellent sitter for our cat, Rosie. We found him on Rover after seeing his great reviews and many repeat clients, and now we completely understand why. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the animals he looks after. He kept us updated on how Rosie was doing throughout our trip and thoughtfully sent daily pictures without us even having to ask. Knowing Rosie was in such good hands gave us real peace of mind while we were traveling. We highly recommend Vigneshwaran and will absolutely be booking with him again!

Sydney was a wonderful pet sitter for my dog. I appreciate Sydney being flexible and helping me out on short notice. She took really great care of my dog and sent me lots of picture updates while I was away, which I appreciated a lot. My dog looked very happy and got lots of exercise and cuddles
Zeryab gave me the best service I’ve ever had on this app, honestly. She was super responsive. Very nice. Easy to work with and plan. I was anxious about boarding my cats but she kept in constant contact and sent photos and videos a lot. She was knowledgeable about cats. She made the whole experience great and my cats warmed up to her so fast. I would 100% use her again.

Kavagun and her family took good care of Penny while we were out. Daily updates with photos were so appreciated while we were away. I forgot to pack the toy for her and they even got her a squeaky toy for her ❤️ The family must have a great cook! Penny came home with a bit of food smell on her fur, which we didn’t mind but something to note/consider.
