“Ellen did such an amazing job with my senior rescue girl! She has some health issues and is a little shy, so I'm always worried about leaving her for the weekend with someone new, but I could tell she felt comfortable with Ellen right away. Communication was great—Ellen sent photos and updates and made me feel a LOT less guilty about leaving her. I honestly could not have had a better experience, which is saying something coming from a slightly neurotic mom of a special needs dog :) I'll definitely be booking Ellen again in the future!”
“We had a great experience with Karl as a dog sitter. Appreciated the daily updates and felt so nice to know that our pup was in good hands. We absolutely will be using Karl again and would highly recommend to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Maolin was amazing, she took very good care of our dog, he looked very happy and comfortable in all the pictures and videos she sent us, which is another great thing she does, along with very prompt communication.”
“Lauren is absolutely wonderful! Her kind and caring nature shows through in the way she cares for our pups. Lauren is very detailed oriented, giving a report on how our pups got along with her dog and each other, what they ate, if they rested. We feel very blessed to have Lauren to help us care for our fur family.”
“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!”
“Amy and her family are wonderful!! She is kind and caring and my Kona felt like part of their family. I could not leave a higher recommendation. Thank you, Amy. It was sooo appreciated. Kona loved it!!”
“Joyce was incredible with Olivia!!! She was super responsive, sent lots of updates, and Olivia seemed to have a wonderful time with her. She will be our first go to if we ever need a sitter for our sweet girl!”
“Juice seemed very happy during his stay! Alexandria is very responsive and sends a lot of pictures of the dogs playing around and having a good time. Would recommend and rebook her for any boarding!”
“Yi was a big help taking a last minute booking. She was very kind and accommodating to our senior dog. She was an excellent communicator and sent several pics.”
“Cindy was so great! Jax, had a wonderful time. Cindy consistently shared photos and updates with how he was doing, so I didn’t have to worry one bit! I would definitely book her again!”
“Rayann watched my puppy for almost a week. She sent daily updates and pictures on how he was doing. She was a great communicator and took great care of Mav. He had a blast playing with her and her family. I will definitely use her whenever I go out of town next.”
“Bethany and her family were great! We felt comfortable leaving our dog in their hands. They are clearly animal lovers and sweet people. We would definitely trust leaving Benson with them again :)”
“Emily was great! This was our first time using a sitter instead of a boarding facility. She was quick to respond to messages and sent pictures. Our girl came home rested and happy instead of stressed out and exhausted from no sleep. Thank you!”
“Katie is an amazing sitter! She REALLY loves the dogs, sends a lot of pictures, and my dogs are always happily exhausted when they come home from spending time with Katie. Her two pups are the sweetest, even my stereotypical chihuahua gets along with Ruth and Stevie.”
“My dog Bella has been cared for by Andrew twice now, and both times she’s been absolutely happy and well taken care of. The second time we went my dog got excited as we pulled up to the house, remembering what a good time she had during her last visit. Highly recommended!”
“Incredibly thoughtful and personal communicators. Most of all, our dog loves being with Michelle, Nicholas, and their dog Waffles. We feel extremely comfortable.”
“Christina was amazing with my dog Bailey! 💕 Bailey felt very loved and happy the whole time. Choosing her to take care of my baby was the best decision. She sent me messages and photos to show what they were doing together, and I could see that Bailey was having so much fun. I’m very thankful for the love and care she gave her.🥹”
“Our pug, Lola, came home absolutely happy and worn out after her visit to Vanessa's house—she could barely stay awake! Hearing that Vanessa’s kids enjoyed spending time with her really made our day.”
Upper Arlington dog parents share their Rover experiences
My pup stayed with Lindsey for over a week. When we picked I picked him up, he was in the front yard with Lindsey. I stayed outside with him while she went inside to get his things. He whined for her when she went inside. That told me so much about how much he loved staying with her. We will 100% contact Lindsey the next time we go out of town.
Cindy and her family were amazing with Nala. Cindy shared a lot of pictures and updated me all the time about her walks. Also, since Nala is very picky to eat, she shared a lot of updates about that too. Nala doesn't like people easily and she approached to Cindy and her family before leaving to say goodbay (she gave them kisses). This was our first time using the app and we had a great experience.
Rachel is the best. She treated Walter like he was hers. He was nervous at first but by the end he was acting like he lived there. She was very accommodating with his anxiety and we couldn't have asked for better. Definitely will be a repeat if she will have him again.
Jeff and Lynn were excellent! They sent us updates and pictures, and followed our requests about food and exercise. They paid close attention to our dog’s medicine needs too. Sunny and Coco returned home the happier they’ve ever been in boarding. It gave us peace of mind to know our dogs got such great care!
