“Maryam looked after our dog when we left him with her during our vacation. We received several pictures of him and we were kept frequently updated of how he was doing. He was taken care of very well. We would recommend her to others.”
“Susan is the best! Our two senior dogs receive outstanding care in her home, and our travel is worry free knowing our babies are getting all the playtime, cuddles and walks they could want. She is a fabulous caregiver and maintains regular contact, sending photos and updates about their daily activities. She is flexible and diligent about adhering to their feeding/medication needs, ensuring she understands all instructions we provide. We have used her several times and our dogs are happy to see her each time we drop them off. It is immensely comforting to know they are being so well cared for while we are away. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
About: My journey with pet care began with my own dogs, and now, I have the privilege of caring for other's pets as if they were my own. I understand that every pet is unique, and I'm committed to providing the best care tailored to your pet's needs. I look forward to meeting and caring for your furry friend! Working from home full-time allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’m happy to follow any special instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, or specific care needs. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I am the proud owner of two gentle, senior dogs and have a spacious, securely fenced backyard. This welcoming environment is perfect for hosting your dog, providing them with companionship and plenty of space to explore.
“Alexis was fabulous. 10 stars. This was the first time using the app and she was the first person I found. She was very responsive and we had very clear communications. The first day my two pups went to her house they were clearly not happy when I dropped them off but then I started getting photos of how well they were integrating. She walked them, loved them and when I took them back the second day they were reaching for her when I went to go hand her the dogs. She had a clean home and the experience was just amazing. I would highly recommend Alexis for all your doggy needs. She was great.”
“Rem loved her overnight stay with Young and her family! Young was super communicative and provided updates and photos. Rest assured that your fur baby will be in good hands :)”
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“We highly recommend Cedric. He and his family took exceptional care of our dog while we were out of the country. He kept us updated and it was evident our dog was very happy and comfortable in Cedric's home. We look forward to rebooking with Cedric for our next trip. Cedric and his family are wonderful.”
“Zues loved his time with Carter. He was treated so well, my mom was afraid he would not want to go home with her. The smile on his face said it all. Cater played with him, sent us pictures. Some great actions shots. Our Zues is very active and loves the attention. Thank you Carter for an amazing week with Zues.”
“Love the attention Phil and Lauren gave Bailey. Taking her for walks, giving her treats and scratching her butt like she enjoys. They treated her like she was part of their family. Texting me photos of her off and on during her stay which made me feel comfortable. I will definitely use them again.”
“Our nonprofit, Military Animal Project, has used Armando twice now for Veterans. We are serving. Armando is easy to work with, very responsive, and when possible Armando can even accommodate some personal requests for the Veterans. Working with Armando through rover.com has made it possible for us to respond immediately to a veteran in crisis and immediately assist their pets in need.. We will continue to reach out to Armando and we appreciate his efforts to assist us with our veterans.”
“Absolutely loving & caring! Anhdao was so friendly from the beginning. We received daily updates with photos, and Dexter seemed very happy staying there. Kingston, their dog, seemed so friendly as well. It felt like Dexter had his own vacation! Will definitely recommend.”
“Patricia was great!! She was very kind and professional. I could tell she enjoyed caring for my little Zoey and gave her the attention and love she needed to feel safe in a new environment. I got lots of pics, which I appreciated. I will definitively be a returning customer. Thanks, Patricia!!”
“Breanna and her boys took great care of Koda. He is a husky and is in the middle of blowing his winter coat, I can tell they brushed him often. I would definitely leave Koda with them again. He was walked often and played with daily. It is so nice to be able to go away and not have to worry about our furry family member.”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“Madlena is a wonderful Dogsitter that I trust with my 2 beloved pups. She is very caring and attentive. I appreciated all of the questions she asked before and during their stay with her, and all of the updates and photos she shared. It’s easy to tell how much she adores dogs. My pets came home well rested and happy!”
“Ryan and Abbey were absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of our dog and treated them like part of their own family. Communication was excellent throughout—quick responses, regular updates, and plenty of photos that really put our minds at ease. It was clear from the start that they are both experienced, attentive, and genuinely love animals. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We would not hesitate to book with Ryan and Abbey again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving pet sitters on Rover.”
“Kelsey had watched our sweet girl a few times and every time it had been a wonderful experience. She clearly cares for our dog and is an “animal person”. Kelsey also communicates with us in a timely manner, and makes us feel very informed and comfortable. It’s such a nice feeling knowing that our pup is in great hands.”
“Great experience. Great place. My dog seemed happy and playful after leaving there. I am sure he had a good time. I received pictures throughout the day of him and what he was doing.”

“Lexy is one of the best pet sitters out there! A trip for me out of the country over 4th of July and no worries about my 2 cats hearing fireworks and getting scared. Lexy took good care of them since when I got home they were lounging around looking pretty content! Lots of love and treats and professional care. I highly recommend Lexy!! Joanne”
About: I have experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playing, and giving them plenty of attention. I’m patient with shy or nervous cats and always make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’ll treat your cat with the same love and care I would give my own.
About: We understand it can be nerve wrecking to leave your cat with someone new. We have two cats ourselves, which we consider our kids, so we know the importance of making your pet feel safe. Moreover, we have experience in administering medications to cats, so there is no need to worry about your pet not taking their medication on time. We would love to take in your furry critter so they can hang out with ours, play with toys, get treats, and lots of love. Plenty of cat beds, a huge cat tree, and scratchers to go around. We can even drop in and spend time with your cat in the comfort of their own home. I’ve been pet sitting since I was in high school, so it’s something I’m comfortable with. We both grew up with cats in the home.
“Rachel is great! My dogs can be pretty rambunctious, and she was super patient with them which I really appreciate. I also loved all the updates and photos she sent, as well as being super communicative with her visits.”
“Hired Amanda to drop by and meet n greet our cat and dogs for an upcoming vacation where the cat has to stay behind. She's absolutely perfect. The animals were interested and engaged immediately. She has a lovely calming demeanor and was comfortable and confident in her role and responsibilities. She has deep ties in this community with mutual acquaintances and many years experience. It's not easy handing over your keys and your fur baby(ies) to a 'stranger' but this felt really right. Hiring her for our out of town dates for drop in visits for the cat.”
“My husband and I needed someone to take care of our 2 cats (and the house) while we were away so we chose Larry, even though we read he is a big dog-lover. It goes without saying that we were nervous leaving a perfect stranger at our house with the cats, after 4 years of not leaving the house for even a single night, but having Larry over put our minds at ease. Larry has a very mellow and quiet personality, so even the skittish cat started to accept having a stranger in the house by the third day. Having someone you don't know come to stay at your house and take care of your pets will always be stressful, but I can honestly say that Larry is 100 % trustworthy when it comes to taking care of both the pets and the house. We already booked him for our next trip away and plan to use him as long as he is available.”
“This was my first time using a pet sitter to watch over my kitty and I was a lil nervous as a fur mom. Kimberly was communicative and lovely from the first point of contact on. She sent daily pics, videos, and I loved how she interacted with my fur baby so sweetly. I definitely would book her again in the future, and I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve gained experience from caring for my sister’s cats whenever she’s away. Through that, I’ve learned how to read cat behavior, keep them comfortable, and make sure they get both playtime and quiet time depending on their mood. I’m reliable and patient, and I always make sure to follow routines closely so they feel safe and cared for. I treat every cat like family, giving them the same love and attention I would my own.
“Anica is great!! She takes amazing care of my cat when I'm gone and I trust her completely. She was so patient and kind with my skiddish cat and Stella immediately warmed up to her! I cannot recommend Anica enough!”
“Julia was punctual and attentive to every detail. She’s a truly caring and lovely person. Even my cat, who’s usually wary of strangers, happily played with her. I whole heartedly recommend her and I’ll definitely book her again”
“Cynthia was wonderful! She was friendly, professional, and very communicative throughout my holiday trip. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even went above and beyond by bringing my packages inside for safekeeping. I’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
About: Working with kids has enabled me to be a kind and patient cat sitter. I’ve taken care of so many types of kitties, from older, to complex health problems like asthma and diabetes. It’s a pleasure to spend time with the animals in my life
About: I’ve had very much experience sitting for family and friends pets throughout the past 6 years. I do also have experience working with animals through volunteering at an animal shelter for about a year and a half. As of now, I am working in a vet clinic as a veterinary assistant. I am working my way to become a registered veterinary technician! I do have a dog of my own, he is two years old so he is very energetic! I always make sure to take him on walks before I go to school or work! My grandparents do also have a dog which I will always check on and walk as well! Not only do I have my own personal pet care but I also care for pets while I’m working as a veterinary assistant. My dog does get his regular walks and playtime since he’s still a puppy. I always assure he’s well fed, has fresh water and will sometimes give him specific enrichment toys. I always assure the same goes for my grandparents dog, although she is on the older side, I care for her very well.
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“Almira did a great job sitting my cat while I was on a long vacation. She is reliable, accommadating, and communicates very well. I was able to be away without having to worry about my cat. I would definitely use her service again!”
“If I could leave Breanna 10 million stars I would. She went above and beyond with caring for the dogs. She was helpful and kind, and she gave me incredible peace of mind that I was leaving them in good hands.”
“Meeting Roma and her partner I knew my kitties would be well taken care of and they were. I got updates everyday on how they were doing and pictures of them as well. I would use Roma again if I needed my kitties to be boarded again. Roma and her partner were very kind, caring, and knowledgeable about animals. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our fur babies!”

“Our nervous little puppy Thor really enjoyed his time with Susan. It sounds like it took a day for him to warm up to Susan and the other dogs, since he can sometimes be fearful, but the next day he was running up the driveway, excited to return. He'd come home so tired from playing with the other dogs. Susan seems to have a few dogs there every day, which ended up being great socialization for Thor. She has a big backyard for them to play in, and a patio area inside for them to spend time when it's too hot out. She treated Thor well, and we look forward to having him stay with her again soon.”
“The most amazing experience today while Alexis and his wife Melissa took care our sweet Darla. Being that she is still a puppy I’m always hesitant to leave her with someone I don’t know but from the initial time I let them I became comfortable and Darla was excited meeting them too. I will definitely reach out next time I need someone to take care of our puppy Darla.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and have a dog of my own. I offer boarding, walks, and plenty of playtime. With your permission, I also love making dog-friendly homemade treats for pups to enjoy during their stay! I know how important it is to feel at ease when leaving your pup in someone else’s care, so I provide regular updates and lots of pictures throughout their stay. Please let me know about any dietary restrictions, special routines, or concerns around other dogs so I can make reasonable accommodations. My goal is to make sure your pup feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away! I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company and will not be left alone or unattended during their stay. I also don’t like sitting for long periods of time, which means lots of opportunities for playtime, attention, walks, and activity throughout the day! My Rover calendar is kept up to date, and if anything unexpected comes up that could affect your pup’s stay, I will communicate with you as soon as possible. I live in a home with a fully fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. Your pup will never be left unattended, and their safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priority. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, while also giving you peace of mind knowing your pup is in caring and attentive hands.
“Everything was great! We booked Phil and Lauren to watch Penny for a few hours. They were super flexible with the drop off time. Penny loves staying with them!”
“Jiminy started wagging his tail right away. That is the best sign for a dog mom. Marcella sent photo plus her house house is in a very good location for the west Valley.”
“Amazing! Kindness, warmth and complete kindness and super consideration! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I’m so grateful. I’m a worried mom, as are others, but I was reassured and greatly respected. My puppy was so loved and cared for! I couldn’t ask for more. 100% recommendation.”
About: We are big animals lovers, we have one dog and cat, also we have a lot of fish. Since I was a child I was alway around pets. When I was teenager I could rescued a dog and bring home, take care of it till find new home. I'm still demanding which person I am, cat person or dog person but I love them both. I like to walk with dogs because I think walking is good exercise for everybody. I go on a quick walks every morning with my dog and sometimes my cat would follow along before I head to work. I been taking care of all my family and friends pets. They would always reach out to me and I'm always willing to accept. There is always somebody in the house to take care of our fury friends, also my teenager is always helping me. I'm available for days and overnights boarding, weekdays or weekends. We have big backyard with fence, trees and real grass and all pets we keep inside home. Please let me know if your baby has any allergies, potty schedule, health history, restrictions or special needs.
“I was in town for just the day and needed somebody to watch my dog very last minute. Almira was great and made sure both me and my dog felt comfortable during the entire process. She gave updates and was clearly very attentive with my dog. I picked up a very happy dog! Would definitely book again when I’m in town and plan to!”
“After the first visit, Ollie became part of the family. Cedric lets Ollie hang out in his lap while working, and gives him lots of attention. Dropping him off this morning, Ollie couldn’t wait to see his new friends.”
“Stanislava looked after my fur baby for the day, and he had such a great time! She sent me the cutest photos all throughout the day, had great communication, and took great care of my little boy ?. We will definitely be back! ☺️”
About: My teen boys and I love all kinds of pets. Caring for your pet is a rewarding small job for my boys. The more we care for your pets, the less likely they will ask for more pets. 🥹 Please send your love bugs here! All pets are welcome in our home. Two responsible teenage boys are great students & literally melt with all the cuddles, goofy antics, and play. It’s great family bonding time too. Your pet will miss you but won’t be alone. I work from home. I am available for early and late drop off. I can help in a pinch or for extended periods of time. I will follow your home routines for feeding, walks, play and sleep. Pets can be on the couch or our laps. We take 2-4 hour outdoor breaks, weather permitting. We use indoor cloth pee pads. If your dog isn’t good with cats, i will put my cat in a safe place.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to every pet. I truly see dogs as members of the family and treat them with the same kindness, patience, and respect that I would give my own loved ones. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routines, and needs so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I also have experience teaching basic puppy commands such as sit, shake, and lie down, and I enjoy helping reinforce good habits through positive encouragement and consistency. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and happy during their stay. As someone who is usually home, I have a wide schedule and would be able to care for pets often, unless I have anything planned ahead which I would make sure to let pet parents know. When caring for pets in my home, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Your pets will always have access to fresh water, be fed according to their normal schedule, and receive plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I generally keep pets indoors unless the owner specifies that their pet is accustomed to spending time outdoors. Even then, I prefer to keep pets indoors at night to ensure they stay safe, comfortable, and protected from the cold. I provide regular exercise and walks, typically 3–4 times per day depending on the pet’s age, energy level, and needs. I understand that every pet is a beloved member of the family, and I will treat yours as if they were my own, providing attentive care and ensuring they feel loved, secure, and well cared for throughout their stay.
“Bear loved it!! She was awesome too!!! She kept sending us pictures videos and keeping us up to date on how Bear was doing. Great experience for our first time using Rover. Highly recommend Liana, and definitely picking her if we come back.”
“Llona was wonderful. She responded very quickly to my last minute request. My dog definitely perceives the vibe of people and as soon as he met her he happily ran into her home. She sent me photos of her boys playing with our dog...he loves children and you can see they are dog lovers too. She was in good communication while caring for our dog which of course made me feel comfortable...no worry on my part. Funny enough dropping your dog off to a stranger is like dropping your child off ...you want to know they are well cared for and that they feel safe and of course have fun. I would give it an A+ day for his first visit with Llona. And we will def use her again and recommend her!”

“Highly recommended! Lexy took great care of our loved pet. She’s not only patient, but also kind. Received detailed photos and notes for each walk, so as the parents, we know what happened and we feel safe in mind even we are far from our pet. Will definitely ask Lexy for another favor if we needed in the future!”
“I can’t recommend Julia enough - she walked my two dogs, followed all my care instructions and sent me detailed pics, videos and descriptions about her time with them. Her communication is amazing! I’m an instant repeat client!”
“We’ve had a few dog walkers now but Amanda is by far the most trustworthy, genuine we’ve had. She shows up on time, does the full amount of walk time, and treats Akira so nicely. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a dogwalker who they want to trust. She will continuously be ours now.”
About: I have two years of experience caring for pets and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs.

As an experienced pet owner/ vet technician, I understand every pet is different and depending on their personality I will work around each pets needs and respect owners requests.
“Larry was amazing! Took our pup out for a solid 1+ hour walk everyday on our 2 week vacation abroad. Our dog clearly felt comfortable and happy with him. He even bought him booties because the side walk was hot!”
“Janelle was very responsive and able to accept a last minute booking. Unfortunately, we were not able to keep our appointment with her but definitely keeping her in mind for the future.”

“Sam is great! Really considerate of what your dog needs. Gives great updates! My dog is so happy! Sam is consistent and responsive. Highly recommend him for your dog!”
About: Working with young kids has taught me to be very patient and understanding. I pride myself on using this experience to maintain strong relationships between my clients and their pets I currently work part time as a preschool teacher. My shifts are 5 hours each. A normal day starts around 8:00am, and ends at 1:00pm, with the exception of a babysitting gig outside of typical working hours. I work with my clients to establish trust between us, and the the pet I service to provide a safe and healthy experience within their home.
About: I’ve had animals since I was really young. I even know how to take care of horses. I started riding when I was about 5. I went to my first horse show when I was 13. Animals have always been such a big part of my life. I currently own a chi-weenie named Mateo, he’s now 11. Mateo is super sweet and smart, I’ve taught him tons of tricks. I have worked in doggy daycare and most recently a bather in Sacramento so work I have with tons of dogs on a daily basis. I may be willing to give your dog a bath for a lil extra money just ask about my prices :) Im pretty open scheduled. Am looking for work so that may change in the near future, but as of now book to your heart's desires. I make sure to communicate with my Pet parents to ensure the animals needs are cared for and ask if there anything they need done.
“Anna did an amazing job with our senior dog. She sent daily pictures and updates and It was so nice not to have to worry about anything while we were away. Thanks so much, Anna! I will be in touch for when we go out of town next. Thanks for the sweet plant and card as well. You are the best!”
About: What sets me apart is my deep commitment to following your exact routine. I am attentive to detail whether your pet requires a strict medication schedule, extra potty breaks, or highly specific care instructions. I truly love animals and focus on giving them my undivided attention, plenty of affection, and the dedicated time they deserve. I am able to care for animals at least 5 times out of the week for 4-6 hours. Depending on the days required, I do have school at certain times a week. I have hobbies and obligations to do as well. I believe 4-6 hours is time that I do have depending on the day of course as mentioned. I could possibly even spend a full day if needed. Again this depends on the day of the week and month. The reason I can’t take in animals at my own home is because I simply don’t have enough space or else I totally would! Also, the baby of the bunch doesn’t do well with new comers. I feed my cats at least 3 times a day they beg like they haven’t eaten in days I might add. They often let me know when they want things by getting my attention and running to the bowl or to their toys or the door to be let out. They have a litter box with cat pellets so It doesn’t stink up the entire house. Laser pointer sessions and dangling cat toys are their favorite. Yes of course the box the cat trees come in are more fun than the actual tree. Cat trees are replaced often, my cats love to chat with me when I talk they talk back. They love wet food every twice a week with many ingredients. My dad’s dog I take care of while he’s on 1 year vacation loves hiking trails that I usually walk on haha. He prefers the best of the best kinds of dog food won’t eat anything else! He’s a good boy and they’re sometimes good cats since they like to knock things over every once in a while or try and pick at my food when I’m on a quick bathroom break. All in all it’s easy to take care of animals in my opinion my cats were not easy to take care of as kittens they needed a lot done and one of them always had issues with her bladder and glands. She’s better now thanks to God and me for the outrageous bills. I’d do it for every animal if I could but I just don’t have enough resources or money to do so. I do love animals and they deserve joy, a wide environment, and amazing care while they’re living and breathing.
About: Hello my name is Brooke! I’ve spent years caring for and training my own dog, which has given me a deep understanding of dog behavior, communication, and positive reinforcement. I’m especially comfortable with larger breeds and dogs that need a little extra patience and structure. What sets me apart is my calm, confident approach and genuine love for animals. I treat every pet like my own; making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure each dog gets the attention and care they deserve. I'm currently working part-time which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets and spend quality time with them. My schedule allows me to do walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting during most mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I always make sure pets get the attention and consistency they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy, and on their usual routine. In my home, dogs have a calm, safe space to relax, regular walks, playtime, and lots of love. I make sure they always have fresh water, a cozy spot to rest, and plenty of attention. When I’m in a client’s home, I follow their care instructions closely, from feeding schedules to favorite toys and walking routes. I always treat each home and pet with respect, keeping things clean and making sure your furry friend feels safe and cared for while you’re away.
About: Aside from the fact that my favorite animals are dogs, I have been surrounded by them for as long as I can remember. In college I was an animal shelter volunteer and thus have experience with all sizes, ages, breeds, and personalities. They are such loyal and lovable animals and I would love to to be able to take care of yours since I don't have any myself. I am a very outdoorsy person and can keep up with your quick dogs, or make sure to exercise those who need to get into shape. :) For those that just need to be cuddled and shown some love I would also make sure to let them know how cared and loved they are, making sure they get the rest and companionship that they need. I'm a full time medical student that studies at home, I may be gone for a 2 hour block on a certain day, but overall I'm pretty much home all day. I live in an apartment right next to the river and park, so you know I'll be walking your dogs as much as possible, getting them some fresh air!
About: I’ve had very much experience sitting for family and friends pets throughout the past 6 years. I do also have experience working with animals through volunteering at an animal shelter for about a year and a half. As of now, I am working in a vet clinic as a veterinary assistant. I am working my way to become a registered veterinary technician! I do have a dog of my own, he is two years old so he is very energetic! I always make sure to take him on walks before I go to school or work! My grandparents do also have a dog which I will always check on and walk as well! Not only do I have my own personal pet care but I also care for pets while I’m working as a veterinary assistant. My dog does get his regular walks and playtime since he’s still a puppy. I always assure he’s well fed, has fresh water and will sometimes give him specific enrichment toys. I always assure the same goes for my grandparents dog, although she is on the older side, I care for her very well.

“Alexis was fabulous. 10 stars. This was the first time using the app and she was the first person I found. She was very responsive and we had very clear communications. The first day my two pups went to her house they were clearly not happy when I dropped them off but then I started getting photos of how well they were integrating. She walked them, loved them and when I took them back the second day they were reaching for her when I went to go hand her the dogs. She had a clean home and the experience was just amazing. I would highly recommend Alexis for all your doggy needs. She was great.”
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“Zues loved his time with Carter. He was treated so well, my mom was afraid he would not want to go home with her. The smile on his face said it all. Cater played with him, sent us pictures. Some great actions shots. Our Zues is very active and loves the attention. Thank you Carter for an amazing week with Zues.”
“Love the attention Phil and Lauren gave Bailey. Taking her for walks, giving her treats and scratching her butt like she enjoys. They treated her like she was part of their family. Texting me photos of her off and on during her stay which made me feel comfortable. I will definitely use them again.”
“Our nonprofit, Military Animal Project, has used Armando twice now for Veterans. We are serving. Armando is easy to work with, very responsive, and when possible Armando can even accommodate some personal requests for the Veterans. Working with Armando through rover.com has made it possible for us to respond immediately to a veteran in crisis and immediately assist their pets in need.. We will continue to reach out to Armando and we appreciate his efforts to assist us with our veterans.”
“Breanna and her boys took great care of Koda. He is a husky and is in the middle of blowing his winter coat, I can tell they brushed him often. I would definitely leave Koda with them again. He was walked often and played with daily. It is so nice to be able to go away and not have to worry about our furry family member.”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“Madlena is a wonderful Dogsitter that I trust with my 2 beloved pups. She is very caring and attentive. I appreciated all of the questions she asked before and during their stay with her, and all of the updates and photos she shared. It’s easy to tell how much she adores dogs. My pets came home well rested and happy!”
“Great experience. Great place. My dog seemed happy and playful after leaving there. I am sure he had a good time. I received pictures throughout the day of him and what he was doing.”
“Almira went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Rocky! It was clear she treated him like a member of her own family. She provided regular updates, tons of love, and made sure he felt completely at home. Knowing he was in such kind and capable hands gave us total peace of mind. I’m so grateful for her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Beray did a wonderful job boarding my dog Mabel. She was very communicative, followed all of my care instructions, updated me with photos often and is very easy to work with. I would definitely have her board my dog again.”
“We had such a great experience with Ilona! She took wonderful care of Sophie and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was easy, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It was clear that Sophie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Ilona and would happily have her watch Sophie again!”
“My dogs had another great stay with Candy, she always manages to find time to give us updates and send plenty of pictures ! The pups are always sad to leave, and completely exhausted for a least a day or two. Thanks again Candy!!”
“Kiyarash was helpful during a sudden time of need. He took care of Cooper for a full night’s worth of boarding and I appreciate the daily updates with pictures. It seemed like his frequency and rotation of dogs is never more than one at a time so there’s also no need to worry about whether your dog specifically will he compatible with other dogs. His space is open and well-kept and I appreciated the house tour at drop off.”
“Kristian was absolutely amazing with Milo! From the start, he was communicative, kind, and clearly cared about making Milo feel comfortable. He kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Milo came home happy, well cared for, and it was obvious he had received lots of attention and love. I could tell Kristian really treats every dog like they’re his own. He’s officially my go-to sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!”
“Ori was wonderful! She took excellent care of my dogs, sent lots of pictures and communicated daily about how they were doing. Really set my mind at ease to know they were so happy and well taken care of. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”

“Our Maggie had a great time with Daniela and we are so happy to have found someone to care for her when we go out of town. Daniela sent us photos and gave prompt replies that made us feel comfortable while we were away. I think Maggie would say she enjoyed her vacation just as much as we enjoyed ours.”
