“Sam was great with Milo! Sent photos and was communicative about pickup and drop off. He came back happy and healthy and we will be working with Sam again soon!!”
“Katerina was amazing with Bunny! She was communicative and professional. Bunny can be shy to warm up, but she did so quickly with Katerina. I would book Katerina again!”

“Luna stayed with Lillian for the first time and I cannot say enough about how wonderful it was. She provided updates everyday and really engaged with her. She is a true dog lover and someone who is dedicated. I feel such leave leaving Luna with her!”

“Shirley was great. She watched our very large, very energetic puppy. She was patient with him and spent lots of time playing with him! She also sent frequent updates. This was our first time leaving him and Shirley made sure he was happy and well cared for.”

“I highly recommend Karla for anyone’s pet care needs. She was friendly, responsive and a delight to work with. She provided daily updates on my dog’s day with pictures. I look forward to working with her again!”

“This was our first time using Rover and I couldn’t have had a better experience. Erica and John treated Sky like their own. Constant updates throughout the whole stay (photos and videos) made us feel at ease leaving our pup for the first time. So thankful for how well they treated Sky. They took her for walks, played in the yard, and let her lounge around the house. Definitely recommended!”

“Megan is such a great sitter! She took her time with helping my dog feel safe since my dog is a rescue. She sent me picture updates, and contacted me if she had any issues. She is very responsive. Will use her services again in the future.”

“Rachel and John were amazing! They took such great care of my tiny girl. Lily got along with their dog so well, and she loved running around in the back yard. Rachel always sent me pics and videos when I was missing her and I am so happy Lily was loved and cared for while I was away. I travel frequently for work and it is so reassuring knowing that I found someone I can trust going forward. Will definitely be using them again, and thank you so much!!!”

“Doris was awesome with accommodating a last-minute request to board Brownie due to an event. I was having at home. Drop off and pick up we’re extremely easy and she sent me photos of Brownie several times. Doris and her daughter were very gentle with her, and I would definitely recommend her services!”


“She was great with Max. Max loved her, she is very kind and cooperative. She updated me with lovely pictures of him and took great care of him. I would definitely have her take care of him again.”

“Ben took great care of my sweet girl, Penelope, so much that she didn't even notice me when I came to pick her up! He sent many photos and videos of her running around, sleeping, and getting fresh air. I was nervous searching for a dog sitter out of fear of her being mistreated. Ben assuaged all of my fears the second that I met him. His energy is very calm and welcoming. He spoke to his dog, my dog, and a third dog that he was watching with such love and tenderness. I will be contacting him again when I need a sitter.”

“Lina was awesome! Our puppy Axel had a great time there and got all the attention he needed. The pics she sent were really cute. We would definitely use Lina again to watch Axel!!”

“Lenford was incredibly communicative and caring for my anxious girl. I was very nervous to leave her, but he took excellent care of my baby and will be my go-to going forward!”

“Kiersten and Casey were absolutely incredible! We got photos every day of our trip and constant updates. Shep got plenty of walks and he even met other dogs in their building, completely put our mind at ease on our trip. Can’t recommend them enough!”

“Diana was very responsive and professional with my stay for my young high energy dog. She sent adorable pictures very often which made me happy while I was away. Her home is spacious and clean, and there's a backyard which was perfect for my dog to go potty in the snowy weather during my trip. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Diana!!”

“AMAZING! Took care of my wonderful puppy, even taught him how to stop scratching people for food. Consistently sent photos and if I ever have to board again I know who's my number 1 pick!”

“Nilka is everything you hope for when you go on Rover looking for pet care. She treats my dog like her own. Her husband and two kids are also great. They all spoil my dog with love and attention. Nilka is so diligent with walks and photos and communication too. Top recommendation for Nilka and her family. Thank you very much!”

“I chose Rachel to board my cat for a three and a half week trip. I am so glad Rachel was my choice! She communicated consistently and sent pictures. If anything seemed to be worrisome, she reached out right away. In addition to her updates about my cat's behavior, she showed that she took care of my cat with care and love for animals. I will definitely be using Rachel again and highly recommend her!”

Sarah was great with my dog! She communicated really well, was able to pick up and drop off my dog and I know that he had a great time because he was so happy and wiped out when I got home from work. He even got to play with her dog! Thanks so much Sarah, we highly appreciate it and recommend her to anyone needing doggie care!
