“Patrice was the best sitter we could have asked for to take care of Arya. She was patient and kind with our dog and Arya made herself at home quickly from the pictures Patrice would send me often. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch Arya for 6 days.”

“Well we love these two! Great experience twice now. Love how chill they are, our pups get all the playtime with theirs and they are beyond great with our shy dog. Just plain kind people!”

“Shawna was absolutely amazing. She sent a lot of updates, took great care of Luke, and seems like such an animal lover! I would recommend her again and again to anyone looking for a sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Danielle was great. I was a bit apprehensive about leaving Beyla with someone she didn’t know. Danielle gave me updates daily and the pictures she sent gave me assurance that Beyla was being well cared for. I definitely recommend her!”

“I really liked Tiffany (and her daughter Sophia). She took great care of my dog Mika. They took her on walks and made her feel comfortable in their own home. She sent photos and updates that my dog was fine. From the beginning, communication with Tiffany was easy. I highly recommend her and in fact already recommended her to my other friends who have dogs too. Mika will be back for sure.”

“I felt very comfortable leaving Dee with Carly and Hunter. They are so kind and willing to adapt to Dee’s quirks. It was my first time leaving her with a sitter and the frequent updates were very helpful and reassuring!”

“Joshua and Lindsay were great. They enthusiastically welcomed our dog into their home and our pup had a great time. They sent up pictures regularly, updating us on how she was doing. We will definitely hit them up again next time we need a sitter!”

“We’ve left our pup with Stefanie and Ben multiple times now and always appreciate their love and care for our dog Nali! We have no worries when she’s in their home and always so appreciate the photos and updates!”

“Becky was amazing! At the meet and greet she took the time to ask about all his habits. During his stay She sent me lots of updates and videos on a daily basis and Twix came back very happy.”

“Jessie did a great job with my senior pup. She provided lots of updates and was patient with my dog and her need to wear diapers and go outside frequently. Roxy was happy when I picked her up.”
“Janet is always a spectacular sitter! Lots of daily updates and photos during our dog’s stay and we were able to be totally worry free during a longer international vacation with our girl in Janet’s care. :)”

“Aleks was an incredible caretaker for our pup! She really understands dogs - both their physical and emotional needs. She was a terrific communicator and sent great photos and updates. I love how she wove our pup into her family activities -- it put our minds at ease while we were on our own adventure. Thank you, Aleks for your careful attention and care. We appreciate you!”

“Thomas was a great sitter for my dog biscuit and she was absolutely obsessed with him. He sent pictures and let me know how she was doing everyday. She was the best kind of exhausted after getting home and I could tell she had the best time. Will definitely be reaching out for my next trip!”

“Liz was extremely communicative and understanding when we had an unexpected change in trip plans and were unable to pick up Toby as scheduled. She was very flexible and we were able to come to a solution to add an additional day at the last minute. We would absolutely book her again!”

“From the moment we met Skye, we knew Finley would be well cared for. She gave him so much love and even let him sleep on the bed. When we picked him up, he didn’t want to leave! We would absolutely recommend Skye to anyone looking for great care for their pet.”

“Sarah provided such good care for my Ruby! I never worried for a second that she was having a great time!! She went the extra mile for me when I needed a drop off last minute. Will definitely book again!”

University dog parents share their Rover experiences
Skye was an incredible caretaker for my dog, Remi, while I was away for a week. I’m always a little nervous leaving Remi, but Skye made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. She kept in touch every single day, sending photos and videos along with updates, which I truly appreciated. It was clear that Remi was getting lots of attention, care, and love while I was gone. When I picked her up, she came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. That peace of mind means everything to me as a dog owner. I couldn’t be happier with my experience, and I would absolutely trust Skye with Remi again in the future. She is wonderful, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Highly recommend!

Lisa and her husband were able to watch Odin for us on a rather last minute request. They have a good size home and fenced backyard. They exercised Odin frequently and were able to keep us up to date on his boarding, as well as flexible with drop off and pick up times!

Tammie is an amazing dogsitter and has the most ideal environment for the dogs she watches! My girl truly feels like this is her home away from homes and i also love getting the pictures ever day while im out of town! i'll always bring my dog here as long as she is available
Brenna watched my dog Bailey for 2 weeks while I was out of the country. My dog was having some anxiety problems, and Brenna was so patient and kind with me and her, and worked with her to make her feel more comfortable. She sent me constant photo updates and was quick to respond every time. She was amazing and really tried to make Bailey feel at home. I would definitely recommend!
