“Linda was fabulous. We had never left Joey before with someone new and he had the best time. Linda always sent updates and pictures of Joey which made me feel at ease that he was having fun. Linda also taught Joey new tricks! We will definitely book again”
“Christina, you are a life saver! Thank you so much for allowing Maple to stay with you and your group of doggo friends all day. You were so very nice and accommodating! Maple was one tired puppy after playing all day! Thank you for the pictures, updates and allowing her to visit with you even though her dads were late!”
“Molley loves being with Heather. Feels great to trust our beast with a great walker/sitter. Heather went beyond by picking up and dropping off Molley. Molley thanks you!!!”
“Jennifer was very good at communicating and kept me very assured while traveling! Updated me daily with pictures and videos! Nala loved the stay and I would trust Jennifer with my dog boarding needs going forward! I could tell she really cares about the animals she brings in and took care of mine like her own! Thanks Jennifer!”
“Our little shy girl was left with Ashleigh for 13 nights. She turned into a lovely crazy dog!!! Ashleigh was so good with communication it became the joy of our vacation checking for new pictures and videos every morning. You can put money on it that Ashleigh is now our permanent Penny sitter!!!!”
“Stephen is not the warmest guy in the world on first meet, but Benny had a great time with them. He took tons of pics (most really well done, almost professional-looking) and kept us up to date, and Benny seemed safe, healthy, and happy the whole time. If anything, I think he may have been disappointed to come home! Will definitely book again.”
“Yana was amazing, she updated us with pictures and details on how our Oscar is doing, on a regular basis. Oscar was very happy with her, she took a very good care of him. We will absolutely go with her next time too!”
“Jessica and Colin watched our pup, Hazel, recently and did a great job! Hazel had a great time at their home with their adorable family. Jessica was quick to respond every time I texted , and was very flexible. We will definitely be using Jessica and Colin again if they are available. They are trustworthy, responsible and reliable . Hazel can’t wait to go back! 🐾”

“Kate did a great job with our sweet girl, Honey! Honey was missing us and Kate gave her extra love and attention. She was well cared for and got to go on lots of walks. Thank you, Kate!”
“I was nervous about boarding our senior golden retriever as we have always traveled with him, but Jennifer gave him such good care. I appreciated the many updates and photos, and he seemed to really enjoy his time with her. Thank you Jennifer!”
“I cannot recommend Maria C. highly enough! From the moment I dropped off my lab mix dog, I could tell this wasn't just a job for her - she genuinely cares about every furry friend in her care. She treated my dog like family. If you're looking for someone who will love your dog as much as you do, look no further. I'll definitely be booking with her again and wouldn't trust my furry family member with anyone else. Highly recommended for large dogs, anxious pets, and anyone wanting complete peace of mind!”
“Diamond had a blast staying with Alli and her pups! Alli updated us several times during the stay and was very accommodating when we had to push back our pick up time. Diamond had the ability to run around outside with her dogs and it definitely tired her out! She fell asleep as soon as we got home! We would definitely book with Alli in the future!”
“We’re so grateful for Priscilla’s amazing care for Aspen! She kept us updated with photos and messages, ensuring Aspen was happy and well looked after. It was clear that Aspen was in great hands, and we truly appreciate her kindness and attentiveness. Highly recommend Priscilla to anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter!”

University Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jennifer is a wonder! It was the first time my dog and I were separated for 2 weeks I missed him but the twice daily videos and photos eased my anxiety He had such a good time that I don’t think he missed me. I will definitely leave my Mojo with Jennifer when I next leave town
I can’t thank Leslie enough for the incredible care she provided for my frenchie, while I was away. Leslie was reliable and communicative, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that made me feel completely at ease. They took the time to understand my dog’s needs and routine, and it was obvious that my dog felt comfortable and happy with them. Highly recommend!
This was my first time leaving Triton with someone other than a good friend, and Nancy was great! She made me feel very comfortable, asking questions about his routine and sending pictures during my long trip. Triton loved his stay with Nancy, and I will definitely be using her in the future!
Valarie is amazing! She followed all my neurotic instructions, walked him daily, sent pics and updates and gave him all the love and treats he needed. I loved the meet and greet first and her communication was on point. I can't say enough great things about her and her accommodations for my precious Mo!. I will definitely use her again and give her my highest recommendation!
Vasti and her husband took the best care of our fur baby!!! They kept me updated daily with videos and pictures of him with his tail wagging 100% of the time! He was very well cared for. And when they dropped him off I could tell he was sad to see them go. I would definitely use Vasti again.
Zeus came home exhausted just as I expected he would after meeting Travis and Jess. I know ew he was in good hands and would be kept busy. He even looked happy in pictures I got from them! Thank you both for having my overly excited boy and making his mom not have to worry while he was with you!
This is my first experience using Rover, and Jessica was super helpful right from the beginning. She and her family took care of my dog, Lola for 5 days while I went on vacation with little to no service. She went above and beyond and got Lola more dog food when it ran out. Definitely appreciate her for taking great care of my baby.
