Judi was great with Chesney. He had lots of walks, which he loves. She also took care of an unexpected health issue without hesitation, which we really appreciated.

Melody took great care of Jarvis again! She stayed on top of his food and medication just like last time and treated him like her own. I really appreciate how detailed she is. She kept notes on his potty breaks, meals, meds, and even sleep, which gives me so much peace of mind especially with his medical needs. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly cares a lot. I’d definitely book with her again!

Janine and her family were so welcoming and their home and yards are safe and awesome! I needed to board my Aussie a couple of days before needing to leave for a family emergency. Janine responded quickly and we scheduled a time for me and my dog to visit to make sure it’d be a good fit. She and her teen kids each took a dog and me and my dog for a walk around the block, then they opened up their home to me to show me how my dog would live when boarded. They showed me the white board where they write down the dogs diets and schedule and sent me updates and photos. I really appreciated that. It was a lot of effort on their part! My dog has a torn ACL and safety was a priority. Chase came back tired, happy, and healthy. I know he had a lot of fun. Thanks Janine, until next time!

SO GREAT! This was POLAR opposite of our very first experience using Rover. SO GLAD WE TRIED ROVER AGAIN! Jie and her family took such good care of our dog. She gave us piece of mind with her responses to our text and photos sent while we were away. A five day stay and what a relief to know our pup was SAFE, loved, being well cared for and looked after. All of the things she says will happen do! When we picked our fur-ball up she was happy and healthy! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

About: I genuinely care about animals and treat them like family. I enjoy spending time with them and build strong emotional bonds. Many of my friends trust me to care for their pets because I am patient, reliable, and attentive to their needs. I work from home and can regularly visit your home to spend time with your pets, feed them, and play with them on weekdays and weekends. I primarily care for pets in my clients’ homes because I believe they feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to spend extended time with pets during the day — providing companionship, playtime, feeding, and regular check-ins rather than only short visits. When I am in a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow all house rules and care instructions. I keep doors and windows secure, ensure pets stay in safe areas, and never bring visitors or outside animals into the home. I follow each pet’s daily routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, cleaning, and medication if needed, so their lifestyle remains consistent and stress-free. I pay careful attention to body language and behavior to make sure pets feel relaxed and emotionally supported. I provide frequent updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and trustworthy environment — and to care for every pet with the same patience and respect I would give to my own family.

Lily has been an absolutely awesome to work with. She was very caring and loving with our dog. She sends us pictures at least twice or thrice a day keeping us updated about how our dog is doing which kept us informed and at peace. Our dog loves to spend time with lily and her family and we have seen this first hand when our dog gets super excited when we enter their street. I am more than happy with Lilly’s service and recommend her for sure.

Sriram is a fantastic sitter! I’ve had mixed luck in the past, but he exceeded all expectations. My dog was treated like family, enjoying tons of walks and play in a safe, spotless home. Sriram’s constant updates and photos gave me total peace of mind. I picked up a happy, relaxed pup who clearly enjoyed his 'vacation’ lol. We will absolutely be booking with Sriram and his awesome family again!

Dana really took a very good care of our pet, Dasher. Our original sitter canceled last minute and I found Dana on the Rover app. She made sure Dasher felt at home, safe, loved, and cared. She was also very responsive to messages. She shared pictures of Dasher with us while we were away. I could see Dasher got really attached to Dana and was constantly looking for her while we were trying to bring him back. Recommended 100%.

Lai was gracious enough to accept a last minute booking and 1-day extension and is so friendly. She seemed very experienced and was immediately comfortable with my French Bulldog, Potato. Even though she had another dog at her house, she had a large pen to separate them in the living room since we didn’t have time to do a meet and greet. She was very communicative and shared a couple updates during the three day stay. Thank you Lai!

We are so incredibly grateful to Melody (and her mom!) for taking such wonderful care of our two dogs, Mazal and Merci, while we were overseas. Leaving your dogs for an international trip is never easy, especially when they each have their own personalities and routines, but Melody gave us complete peace of mind. From day one, she was thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely cared about making them feel comfortable and loved. Melody took the time to understand them as individuals instead of treating them as “just another booking.” We received updates, photos, and little moments from their day that made being far away so much easier. It was obvious they weren’t simply being watched—they were being welcomed into a home and cared for like family. And one detail that really surprised and delighted us — when we picked them up, our girls came home SO clean and well groomed. Their fur was soft, they smelled amazing, and they looked like they had just come back from their own little vacation. It’s such a small detail but says a lot about the level of care and attention Melody and her mom put into everything. A special thank you to Melody’s mom as well. You could really feel the warmth, kindness, and teamwork between them, and it created such a loving environment for our girls. When we came back, Mazal and Merci were relaxed, happy, clean, and clearly very well cared for—which says everything. We would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. Thank you again, Melody and family, for taking such amazing care of our girls. Our girls already miss you! ❤️🐾

We recently booked Savita to care for our dog Ayra. Since the time I requested the booking Savita and her husband were both super communicative. They made sure we had a meet and greet before we finalize them as Ayra’s caregiver. The way they introduced Ayra to their dogs and the way they made Ayra comfortable around themselves speaks about how much they care. From drop off to pick up Savita was always in touch with us and super quick with her response. Ayra came home happy and tired. We will definitely have Ayra board with them again.

5 stars care and a happy pup ! Pratima took wonderful care of Vaayu, and I truly can’t express how relieved and grateful we felt having him with her. Leaving your dog with someone else is never easy, but she made the whole experience very reassuring and stress-free. She sent thoughtful updates every day about his food, mood, and temperament, along with videos that made us feel connected to him while we were away. She carefully monitored his food intake, made sure he was comfortable, and kept us updated as he settled in and started feeling better. What stood out most was how caring, patient, and attentive she was with him. It was clear that Vaayu was not just being watched — he was genuinely cared for. He came back to us happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. This was honestly one of our best experiences with a dog sitter, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Pratima to anyone looking for loving and trustworthy care for their pet.

This was my first experience using Rover, and I was very nervous about leaving my puppy Nova with someone new. Naveen made that so much easier than I expected. From the start, he listened carefully to everything I shared about Nova's routine and needs, and he never made me feel like I was being too detailed or overly cautious. He sends updates frequently, which gave me real peace of mind throughout the stay. Nova is a young, cautious Havanese who takes time to warm up to new people and environments. The fact that she did so well with Naveen says everything — he clearly has a calm, patient presence that even the most sensitive puppies can feel. She ate her meals, slept in her crate, and came home happy. I am planning the next boarding with him now with peace of mind. Naveen is the kind of sitter you feel genuinely lucky to find, especially as a first-time puppy owner. Highly recommend!
