“Lauren took great care of Zuri! She has a great space for dogs, handled medications/other needs well, was flexible with a last-minute booking, and sent frequent updates and pictures. We will definitely be back in the future!”

“Alexandria was really wonderful with my dog Henry! She was great at communicating both before and during my dog's stay. Henry seemed to have a great time and got along well with her sweet dogs!”

“This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen. Highly recommend! Thanks again Ellen for putting our minds at ease.”


“Dawn made our Cavapoo’s first stay away from family wonderful! She was very accommodating and was patient with our dog, Lily, as she got settled in. Dawn was very good about sending updates which kept my mind at ease. We would definitely book with her again in the future! Thanks, Dawn!”

“Angie was wonderful with our one year old mini bernedoodle Reggie. This was only the second time he stayed in someone’s house and the first time with Angie ! She’s a happy, very positive person and gave Reggie lots of TLC while we were away. She also had to administer pills to him and she wasn’t bothered by that at all. We plan to use her services again in January 2026.”

“Mary was absolutely amazing with Layla! She communicated consistently and thoughtfully, sending pictures at least twice a day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Layla usually goes on a bit of a hunger strike when I leave, but she was so comfortable with Mary that she ate every single meal. That alone says everything! Layla looked genuinely happy in every photo and was clearly very well cared for. Mary also shared how much she loved spending time with Layla, and it truly sounds like they both had a great time together. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be using Mary’s services again in the future.”


“Tamisha was a big help to me over Thanksgiving with Peaches. I was nervous same as Peaches but you could tell she relaxed and had a good time with her. I really appreciated the pictures and her flow with my schedule.”

“This was our first experience using Rover. Hallie was wonderful! She treated our pup like her own, keeping us updated. He and her dogs became best friends, and everyday was a playdate! We could not be happier. We look forward to using her again!”

“Cody went above and beyond while watching my fur baby! She was able to sit for me while I went on a work trip. She followed all my care instructions and sent pictures daily. He was sad to leave his new friend after an amazing stay with her.”

“My husband and I are so happy to have found Sasha. She is professional, caring, patient, loving dog sitter. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch and care for my dog! I am a first time dog owner, she gave me great pointers answered all my questions and made me feel truly at ease leaving my dog in her care. Thank you Sasha I really appreciate you.?”

“Amber was a rockstar. We are always nervous to leave our senior chiweenie with anyone new because he is very skiddish. He opened up to Amber, and her family was patient as he took more time to become comfy around them. She took him on nice walks and followed the scheduled to a tee. We appreciate the constant communication and honesty Amber provided about Franklin during his stay. We will 100% book Amber again to care for our buddy.”

“Saunta took very good care of Cleo while I was away. She made sure to message me everyday to let me know how Cleo was doing. She provided a clean and adequate space for Cleo to stay with all essentials provided. She had two other cats with her that Cleo was able to interact with, and Cleo was able to get along with both of them. All in all, I would definitely recommend Saunta if you are looking for someone to look after your kitty while you are away for a couple days or weeks.”

“Kathryn you are such a great dog, mom. So attentive, communicative and super loving. I loved the daily videos and notes that you sent to me. My dog came home happy and tired. Thank you so much.”

“Stellar, exceptional, dope, and just SUPERCALIFRAGALISTIC, this all describes the superior service Zahria provided to my baby and to me. She was great with communicating everyday sometimes multiple times per day which definitely set my mind at ease. Sending pictures and videos of their activities. Her goal was to make him comfortable being away from me and me comfortable being away from him, well she nailed the assignment. Honestly, she treated Onyx so well I was afraid he wouldn't want to come back home, lol. I will most definitely be using her again as soon as the need arises and for as long as she is available. Zahria is highly recommended by me, if you want your baby treated like a King or Queen. Thank you Zahria you are a tough act to follow.”

“Top notch! Elizabeth is a very responsible and responsive sitter. My pup had so much fun - I could tell she didn't really want to come home. Will certainly use Elizabeth's services again!”

“Kane LOVES going to Emily’s house to stay with his friends Winter and Banner. Emily treats him like family and he gets so excited pulling up to her house every time she watches him. Emily does a great job at communicating and sending photos during his time with her. Kane will continue to stay with Emily and her family in the future.”

“Karen was awesome with Belle! She sent me pictures every other day and Belle loved playing with her dogs too. I was very happy with boarding my Belle with her, she has a repeat customer in me!”

“We were really happy with Micele boarding our Leo and will definitely look forward in future dog boarding. Michele is very flexible in regards to pick up and drop off and we noticed she loves animals and took really good care of Leo!”

Tri-South dog parents share their Rover experiences
In my humble opinion, the service was excellent. Truly recommendable! Mookie was well cared for, happy, and safe the entire time for 24hrs while i was working a long 12 hour shift. I truly appreciate the kindness and attention given, and I would gladly recommend this dog sitting service. ☺️

Dawn made our Cavapoo’s first stay away from family wonderful! She was very accommodating and was patient with our dog, Lily, as she got settled in. Dawn was very good about sending updates which kept my mind at ease. We would definitely book with her again in the future! Thanks, Dawn!

Amanda was the best thing that could have happened to us at the last minute of our holiday when we didn't think we'd find the right person to care for our Frenchie. She and her boyfriend took care of Spice just as we asked, and we were all happy. Spice found someone to take care of her in Columbus.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! From start to finish, the communication was excellent. We got regular updates, photos, and videos that showed just how much fun our pup was having. It was clear he was being kept active, loved, and completely spoiled in the best way possible. The attention to detail, kindness, and genuine love for dogs really stood out. Our dog came back happy, tired (in a good way!), and clearly well taken care of. We’re so grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone who will treat your dog like family! 🐾💚🤍🖤

We were a little anxious about leaving our dog since she had not been away from home overnight in the ten years that we have had her. But she did great with Sidney and even made a new friend in Sidney"s cat. Also, thanks for sending us a daily update while we were on vacation.

Aleisa’s performance was exceptional. She effectively managed Chyna’s apprehension due to our absence. Aleisa demonstrated patience and ensured Chyna’s complete comfort. She prioritized Chyna’s well-being, providing her with a safe and loving environment. I highly recommend her services and intend to utilize her for all future travel arrangements.
