“This was my first time using Rover. I couldn’t have picked a better family to look after my 2 girls while I was out of town. Scott sent picks and videos every day while yo was gone showing how much fun they were having.”


“First stay for Millie and exceeded our hopes! She had fun and lots of snuggles and attention. Loved all the photos sent each day while we were away. Can’t wait to book her next stay.”

“Katy and DJ are wonderful sitters! We are so at peace leaving our dog Milo in their care. They send us frequent updates and pictures. Milo is worn out by the time he comes home. He loves his walks and playing with their pup! I would highly recommend them!”

“This was our first time using Rover and our first time having someone that wasn’t family watch our dog. Wallen had so much fun and came home so happy ! We got frequent pictures, videos and updates so we knew he was very well taken care of!”

“My dog had the BEST weekend away from me!! Dropping my dog at Dana's was like dropping him at the Ritz! Dana was so gracious, welcoming and accommodating- making sure she knew my dog's preferences and comforts. Her two pugs were adorable and Sammy seemed to enjoy having them as playmates! I loved all the pictures and updates. My sporting dog can be a handful but Dana seemed to manage his care with ease and kindness. Her backyard & deck is beautiful. She is a gem of a dog lover! I reside in Illinois. I needed her services while traveling...I may need to pay her to "relocate" ha-ha. Thank you, Dana. My dog transitioned home beautifully. You're the Best!”

“Would definitely recommend Amanda as a sitter! Easy communication, easy to book, I appreciated the couple check ins during my dog’s stay! My dog came back looking well taken care of, happy, and tired from her exercise! Will definitely be using Amanda again!”

“Angela was absolutely amazing! I received multiple pictures a day of my dog enjoying spending time with her pups and family. She was treated her as if she was a part of the family. In fact, when I went to pick her up she didn’t want to leave ha! I would most definitely book Angela again in a heart beat. -Allie”

“Yolanda is our family’s go-to sitter and we wouldn’t want it any other way. We get plenty of pictures and updates, while also given our space to enjoy a trip away and know our pup is happy and safe.”

“Gianina was a great host to Kona! She sent pictures and updates throughout the weekend! She had a great yard for him to explore, and she took him on nice walks. We will definitely book with her again if we travel!”

“We first did the "meet & greet" to make sure our dog gets along with hers but it seems it went well, Ellie really enjoyed herself at Marie's house. Marie was very responsive and also very accommodating when we had to change our schedule. We also really liked Marie's daily text updates with pictures of Ellie'daily activities.”

“Cheryl was great with our dog Ellie and our cats! You could tell she really cared about our animals and took the stress of leaving them alone off of our plates. We will book with her again!”

“I absolutely loved my experience with the sitters! They’re so attentive, communicative, helpful in every way, I definitely will book again. I could tell with the updates that my dog was happy ( from photos I received every day) and very comfortable! It made my getaway so much easier to know he was well taken care of!”


“Scott and his dog Lucy were a great match for Roo! I received multiple picture updates and he was great at communicating. We met up beforehand to ensure a good match, and it was clear Scott has a natural way with dogs. Would gladly rebook!”


“Riley had such a great experience, and I truly can’t say enough good things. Communication was amazing from start to finish, and she was so flexible when our flights changed, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She even sent pictures without us asking which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. Her kids and mother were incredibly kind and Riley also got along so well with their dog, Annalise. Riley isn’t around other dogs very often, so I was a little nervous, but they did great together and it made me so happy to hear how well she adjusted. Honestly, the whole experience felt so comfortable… like I’ve known them for a long time. That says a lot when you’re trusting someone with your dog. I would absolutely use them again without hesitation. I think Riley may have even found herself a new best friend 🐾”

“Sherry is fantastic!! She is so attentive, responsive, and treats our little fur baby with so much kindness and love! 🩷 I really appreciate all the pictures and updates during our dog’s stay with her! We will absolutely be booking with Sherry again! ☺️”


“Jenifer is amazing! I’d never used Rover before, or had my pup stay with anyone other than my close friend. Since we were getting married, we needed to find a sitter for a couple nights and after seeing the very many good reviews about Jenifer, I thought I’d give it a shot and I’m so glad we did! She obviously loves dogs- dropping our pup off was easy since she had 2 huge baskets of toys for her to get excited over! She sent us pictures of our pup every day and was altogether reassuring and great. I’d do it again in a heartbeat- it’s so nice to know we have someone nearby we can trust with our baby!”


“Andrew helped watch my dog, Lucy, during a recent trip I had. He was very flexible and communicative throughout the process with drop off and pickup, and sent great photos throughout the stay to keep me comfortable regarding how Lucy was doing. Would absolutely book with him again.”

“Our dog Dexter had the best weekend with Rhonda! He met new friends, had many walks, and was a happy boy when we picked him up! Thank you Rhonda for taking such good care of Dexter for us! We will definitely book Rhonda again! ❤️”
