“Our dogs were well taken care of with Michelle. She sent lots of pictures and updates and kept them on their normal schedules. Would recommend!”


“They treated Coco like a member of the family. Gave daily updates with pictures. She did not show the typical signs of stress when she was boarded in the past. Highly recommend!”


“Yolanda was amazing to work with! She is a consummate professional and did everything she could to make sure my wife and I felt comfortable with our pup being in her care. We know our pup is in great hands with Yolanda!”


“Dani was great with Finn - it was his first boarding experience, and everything went great! Dani was extremely easy-going, her communication throughout was great, and she did a great job with Finn; she treated him as part of the family as soon as he stepped inside. Finn really likes to play with other dogs, and Dani’s two dogs were perfect for this - particularly Willow, who apparently played with him the entire visit. She is extremely polite, easy to work with, very understanding, and quite knowledgeable. You can tell Dani really enjoys helping people out with their pets, and dedicates her time to ensure a good experience. Finn will definitely be visiting Dani (and Aidan, Willow and Remy) again!”


“Rhonda did a great job watching Lucy over night. When I came to pick Lucy up, she was very happy and contented. I would definitely have Lucy stay with Rhonda in the future.”


“Great experience working with Ryan to board my dog overnight. He provided updates throughout the day and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. Will definitely be using his services again!”



“Dan and Holly are so sweet! From the moment we met them I could just tell they were good people. Our little Aussie, Nash, had a blast and was exhausted for the entire week after we picked him up.”



“Guap loved his stay at MJ's place. He did a good job of talking care of him. Started off a little wild during the initial meet cause my dog is a handful but it was a good overall experience all and all. ”


“Ashlee is absolutely amazing! She provided us with adorable pictures and updates during Boscos stay; we will definitely be requesting future sittings and sending friends her way!”


“Maria & Nayibe are hands down our favorite sitters we’ve ever had. We fully trust them with our pup, Milo, and know he’s not just safe but thriving in their care. They are so loving and attentive, whether it’s giving extra snuggles, setting up a splash pad on a hot day, or helping him burn off energy with playtime, they always go above and beyond. They’re also incredibly flexible and communicative, sending the sweetest video and photo updates. Milo has the best days with them, and we’re so grateful. Can’t recommend them enough!”


“Daniel was super communicative and tentative to my dog Link. Link has strong separation anxiety and Daniel gave him the attention and exercise he needed to be comfortable while I was away. This was my first time using Rover and leaving Link with a sitter, and Daniel made the process very easy and reassuring!”


“My two huskies had such a good time! Kim and her husband took such great care of them! They sent us videos and pictures which definitely helped knowing they were in good hands :) 100/10 recommend”


“Lizzy was amazing! We were a bit worried as this was the first time we had been away from our puppy overnight, but she adjusted well and thoroughly enjoyed Lizzy's home. Lizzy sent great updates and was very responsive. I credit Lizzy (and Clover) with helping our puppy come a little more out of her shell with other people and animals!”


“Janice was wonderful with our pup. He got to go on lots of walks and stay active. Communication was great and he came home happy as can be.”


“I can’t say enough about the care provided by Dawn. Absolutely wonderful and loving. Sent a photo every day, great communication, pup was happy and well taken care of. Asked questions, quick to answer mine, everything was very positive! A GREAT choice for pup care! Thank you!”


“Tiffani is an amazing sitter. This was my first time leaving Queenie with anyone and I was a little nervous. She sent many pictures and even hand fed her when she wouldn’t eat. It usually takes Queenie a while to warm up to people but she instantly loved Tiffani from the beginning. Tiffani took time to introduce her to the other fur babies which she has not been around before. Thank you Tiffani for caring for my baby as your own.”


“Elizabeth and her family took great care of my dog, Reba. She was communicative and flexible with me and provided sweet picture updates for me. I have already re-booked with Elizabeth to watch Reba, again!”


“We couldn't be happier with Sarah! Her and her family were incredibly reliable, warm & welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure Moose was comfortable and well-cared for. When our flight was changed last minute, Sarah was understanding and flexible. We appreciated the daily updates and so many amazing photos. It was so reassuring to see how happy Moose was during his stay. We highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! We will absolutely be rebooking for our next vacation.”


“Tegra was quick to reapond to any communication. We had many concerns because our dog was recently adopted, not fully trained, and a tripod! She was very helpful and flexible. Our dog was happy and secure when we picked him up! So grateful for Tegra!”


“Angela was amazing! She was flexible with drop off/pick up, sent us pictures/videos of our Olive. I felt very comfortable having our dog stay with her and her family. Will definitely use again in the future when we go out of town. Thank you!!!”

Sunset Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Krystal was an amazing dog sitter!! She sent a ton of photos and updates. Her two dogs are super sweet and she has a great backyard. I used Krystal’s drop off service and it was a life saver. I would highly recommend her!

Billy was really attentive and Pete responded immediately to his calming energy. It was our first time using a Rover sitter and Pete seemed to have a great time with Billy and Rose!

Katharine and Michael and their boys are a wonderful family for Hazel to stay with. Will continue to use them without hesitation.

Michelle was amazing with our pup, Fuji! This was one of the longest stretches that we were away and she was great about sending us photos and updates. Fuji and Pippa were inseparable and you can tell they loved hanging out from all the smiles in their photos. Fuji is not a fan of fireworks, so with her stay being during the 4th of July holiday, Michelle was so comforting to her during the week. Fuji really enjoyed her time with Michelle, Pippa and Lasalle and we felt comfort knowing Fuji was in great hands. I know she’s looking forward to her next stay and reuniting with her friend again.

Claire is my and Charlie’s favorite!!!🩷 She is so sweet and accommodating and sends me tons of updates/photos and videos. My mind is always at ease when Charlie is with Claire! 😁

Oliver had a wonderful time with Michelle and her family. Michelle shared a lot of photos and provided daily updates during Oliver’s stay.

Sofia was so welcoming for our Ella and so sweet! She only watched our dog for a few hours but sent multiple photos and even recommended a Spotify playlist Ella seemed to like. I wish we lived in Wisconsin because we would love to use her more often!

My small dog had a great week with Angela and her even smaller dog! Never had to worry if she was safe or having fun. Highly recommend!

Caitlin is wonderful. She is quick to respond to messages, sends frequent updates with pictures, and obviously loves spending time with dogs. Highly recommend.

Monse was kind and responsive. No concerns! Agree with others that English is not her primary language but this was not an issue.

I always drop off my dogs with them when we go on vacation and my German Shepherd is a little high strong and they do great with her highly recommend

Bridget is an absolutely superb caregiver for our pets. She is extremely attentive to all their needs, communicates often, and generally makes you feel completely at ease leaving them with her. Exceptional.

My dog had a blast hanging out with Sarah and her family! They made sure he had plenty of playtime and exercise. He definitely felt at home with them.

Walter had the BEST weekend with Maureen and crew! He truly seemed to be a part of the family and the photos that were provided each day made me feel at peace. Definitely recommend Maureen to anyone, Walter can’t wait to visit again!

Amanda has helped watch our pup for boarding twice now and has helped provide an excellent experience! We appreciate the photo updates and care for Remi!

Jen took such great care of our dog and gave her lots of belly rubs and plenty of exercise! We had peace of mind with Jen watching her. Thanks Jen!

Thank you for taking y’all time and weekend to watch my dog. Definitely appreciate very much and will used you guys again.

Keith was great to work with and took excellent care of Randy. It’s great to have someone in the neighborhood that I know our dog will look forward to spending time with!

Cassie was really kind and took great care of our pup! She gave us daily updates and a photo of how he was doing, and it was clear that he had been well tended to when we came home. Definitely reassuring to us knowing he was in good hands, especially while out of town. Only hiccup we encountered were some communication issues at the beginning. One reason we booked Cassie was based on her listed location being so close to our home, which was perfect for the travel plans we were making and coordinating with other travelers. But when she sent us her address a few days ahead of dropoff, she was actually located 45 minutes away from our home and not at the location she had listed on her profile, and it caused some stress, because when we found out her address it was too late to find another sitter and we simply had to rearrange our whole itinerary for the day of travel and dog drop-off. On my way to drop our pup off she sent a message saying she thought drop off was in the evening, not morning, and she said she was at work, which caused further stress. Fortunately her boyfriend was home and able to take our dog at the planned time (which we had indeed booked for the morning—she probably mixed up a.m. versus p.m.—those details matter!) Overall we would recommend Cassie for the good care our dog received, her updates provided throughout his stay, her reasonable prices, and generally a really positive experience. He clearly had a good time with her care and it was reassuring knowing he was well tended to while we were gone. We would just recommend double checking details on dropoff times and locations well in advance in order to avoid last minute stress and logistical frustrations!
