“This is our first ever dog care experience and Quang was quickly responsive to my needs for last minutes plans. I have a super high energy GSP and and an elderly Porky. He cared for both needs and they returned home tired and happy. I also had to extend the time for care and he helped make that process very smooth. Thank you Quang! I’ll reach out for the next trip.”
“Couldnt have asked for a better home for our pooch to stay the weekend. Julie was amazing sending us pics throughout. Love to have our pooch spend time with her and her dogs again for sure!”
“Minh is so nice and accommodating. Very easy to work with. This was our first time using Rover and we could not be more pleased with the experience. She sent us picture updates regularly, she provided a safe and clean environment for our dogs. We could not be happier. Thank you, Minh!”
“Rachel is a fantastic caregiver who is always friendly, super flexible, and incredibly trustworthy. Lola always comes back happy and tuckered out! Thanks, Rachel!”
“I can't recommend Thuong enough! She was incredibly communicative throughout our time away, sending lots of pictures and updates that gave us real peace of mind. She took our dog on regular walks and clearly cared about her wellbeing. From the start she was open to a meet-and-greet and never once pressured us to book, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and trustworthy. We'll definitely be rebooking!”
“Antonette was easy to communicate, and provided great care for Bruno. She took in Bruno when he was wearing a cone due to scratching problem. She made sure he ate since he is a picky eater. I would recommend her to all my friends.”
“This was the very first time I’ve ever left my 10 year old dog, Coco with anyone and I was honestly so nervous. But Son was absolutely amazing and made the entire experience so comforting for both of us. From the beginning, communication was great and we felt completely comfortable leaving Coco in his care. It was obvious she received lots of attention, love, and care during her stay. The updates and care he provided gave me so much peace of mind. Coco came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet like family.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! Our dog was very well cared for and came home happy, comfortable, and relaxed. The communication was great, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely book again and highly recommend! ❤️”
“I can’t recommend Sarah enough as a dog sitter. My dog, Teddy, absolutely loves staying with her—he gets genuinely excited every time he realizes he’s going back, which says everything. What I appreciate most is how incredibly detailed and consistent her updates are. Every day, she sends multiple photos and videos—Teddy eating, playing, going on walks, and even updates on how he’s doing overall. She keeps me fully informed, down to small but important details, so I never have to wonder how he’s doing. It gives me real peace of mind knowing exactly how his day is going. It’s also clear that she truly cares about the dogs she looks after. She takes Teddy on walks, to the dog park, and even on hikes, making sure he stays active and happy. On top of that, her home environment is wonderful—her two dogs and her cat are all very friendly, and Teddy gets along great with them. He’s not just being watched; he’s having a great time. Whenever Teddy stays with Sarah, I know he’s safe, well cared for, and genuinely happy. I fully trust her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter.”
“10/10 recommend! Super communicative and nice, I received lots of pics and videos of Kiwi. Fast response time, Kiwi played with many toys, had plenty of walks and was well taken care of. Great experience thank you again!”
“We absolutely love Brittany!! We know our fur baby is in great hands with her. We will definitely use her again! Thanks Brittany for taking care of our baby!”
“Jacqueline was great. She has excellent communication and you can see clearly that she loves animals. My dog tends to get nervous being away from me and she was very attentive to my dog's needs. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Dante can be very shy and anxious- Kimberly and her fiance are very understanding of this and dont push him to socialize with other dogs if hes feeling that way. They let him be a couch potato and follow them around to hang out- absolutely wonderful care for my four-legged baby.”
“Tracy watched our furbaby Matcha for a little over a week. Since we don't frequently board our dear Matcha, I was anxious and nervous of being away from him for that long. Thank goodness that I found Tracy and she really did give us a peace of mind by taking good care of Matcha. During the whole time, Matcha settled in very quickly and was really chilled and calm with her and in her home. Tracy provided regular updates with photos and videos which I really appreciated. Will rebook with her again without question, and I highly recommend Tracy to anyone who needs someone trustworthy to take care of their dog!”
“We had such a fantastic experience with Juanyi and truly couldn’t have asked for better care for our dog! From the very beginning, communication was enthusiastic, warm, and reassuring. We had a first meet & play before the dog boarding. Juanyi’ house is very beautiful, clean and suitable for dogs. During boarding, we received photo updates every single hour, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Each picture showed our dog happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoying their time—whether playing with Panda and Kaka (Juanyi’s two LOVELY dogs), resting, or out on a walk. What truly stood out was her flexibility and responsiveness. At one point, we needed to adjust our pick-up time to one day earlier than originally planned. We reached out, expecting it might be difficult to change on short notice—but she responded very quickly and immediately adjusted her schedule to accommodate us. Her willingness to be so understanding and flexible completely really touched me!! Drop-off and pick-up overall were smooth and easy. Juanyi made the entire process seamless and convenient for us, which we deeply appreciated. It genuinely felt like she cared for our dog as if they were her own. Bagel and Panda become best friends!! We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, which says everything. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to any dog parents looking for a reliable, communicative, flexible, and truly caring sitter!”
“**⭐️ 5 Stars – Amazing Dog Sitter! ⭐️** I couldn’t be happier with the care Mary provided for Kajree! From the very beginning, Mary was attentive, loving, and truly went above and beyond to make sure my pup felt safe, happy, and well-cared for. Almost daily updates (including adorable photos and videos!) gave me so much peace of mind while I was away, and it was clear Kajree had a great time with them. Whether it was walks, being goofy, or being cared for as a senior dog, Mary and her kids treated my dog like their family. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring sitter. Thank you for everything—we’ll definitely be booking again! 🐾❤️”
“Our dog spent another long weekend with Boris and Olga and I feel like he had the best weekend! They took him on a hike and it feels like they really treated him like their own. Great communication. Lots of photos. Flexible with drop off and pick up. Would absolutely use again!”
“Sharon was communication first throughout our interactions. She setup a FaceTime call before our first visit & answered all our queries. During my pets stay, she provided timely updates. My pet came back happy & energized - I assume he had a good stay. Sharon’s family was welcoming as well.”
“Juliana took such great care of Dexter and sent us so many wonderful pictures. Dexter looked very happy during his stay with Juliana. We highly recommend her and will be booking her again in the future!”
“Milo had a great time with Megha and her family! Especially with their dog Barfi! They sent lots of updates and lots of photos of Milo, which helped me feel reassured that Milo was in good hands and that he was having a good time. Milo played so much with Barfi, and it really seems like he has gained a new best friend. Will definitely be booking with them again!”

“Aivy was an amazing cat sitter who stood up to the plate with all my crazy detailed instructions and even took additional time to repair the litter robot when it malfunctioned. I appreciated her super fast communication too. My funny cats warmed up to her immediately. Aivy is now officially on my list of the trusted cat sitters who I will for sure hire in the future when needed.”
“Our cats were in such good hands with Olivia! This was the first time we used a cat sitter, so we were naturally a little nervous, but she immediately put us at ease. She was incredibly gentle and patient, and really understood how to care for both our shy cat and our energetic kitten. We appreciated the updates with lots of pictures from each visit and the care she showed them while we were away. We would absolutely trust Olivia to take care of our cats again in the future and highly recommend her!”
“Lynn was great, and we would definitely ask for her again. She was on time, kept us up-to-date with descriptions and pictures/videos, and it didn't even look like anyone had been in our house. Best of all, our cats were happy.”
“We are repeat customers with Kaylee. We feel very comfortable leaving our pets & our home in her hands. She is prompt with her communications & in her visits, sends lots of pictures, takes care of everything we ask, and makes sure the cats get lots of pets. We have a cat that takes anti-seizure meds that need to be dosed approx 12 hours apart and she is very mindful of that when making her visits.”
“Nasrin has been watching our cats for several of our trips. She is so attentive to them and gives thorough updates! My cats are little terrors and she handles them and their antics so well. We sincerely appreciate the lovely care she provides!”
About: I was a cat mom for 10 years and have also cared for other people’s cats, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and levels of independence. Toward the end of my cat’s life, he became sick and required more hands-on care. I gained a lot of experience giving medications multiple times a day, keeping up with specific care routines, and caring for him while he was sick or injured. That experience taught me to be especially patient, attentive, and observant when a pet isn’t feeling their best. I’ve also cared for other people’s cats since college, including feeding, litter box care, check-ins, playtime, and of course plenty of attention when they want it (and space when they don’t!). I know cats can be very particular about their people and their routines, so my goal is always to make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible while you’re away. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you know how your cat is doing. 🐾
About: As a current cat owner and someone who's taken care of other cats in the past, I pride myself in attentiveness and patience when working with cats and respecting their boundaries. I additionally have experience in multi pet households so whether its one cat or two, or both a dog and a cat, I'm equipped with the knowledge on how to care for both!
“Mary did a great job taking care of our cat Miss Kitty and had a lot of attention to detail while giving our cat two medications a day. She had great communication and we felt confident our cat was well taken care of while we were gone.”
“Hailey did an excellent job! She was so reliable & communicative. It was our first time using her as a sitter and I had no worries. You can tell she loves animals and is great at her job. Will definitely hire her again!”
“Catherine took such good care of our two bunnies while we were on vacation! This was my first time using Rover, and she helped make the process super easy. She was so patient and kind (even when the bunnies made a big mess!) She also provided thorough updates, lots of photos, and sweet notes that we really appreciated. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you so much Catherine!”
“Joleen did a great job taking care of our cat that has a bit of a special health need (requires an inhaler for asthma). She followed all of the instructions and went above and beyond with care and updates. We've had some trouble returning back on time, and she kindly agreed to take care of our Blackberry for an extra day on very short notice. We returned to a clean house and a happy cat!”
“Christina was amazing! She was incredibly thorough and reliable and made sure that our cats get everything they need. She always provided plenty of pictures and videos during every visit. She even went above and beyond and picked up and vacuumed the mess that our cats made. I would absolutely recommend Christina to everyone, and would book her again in a heartbeat!”
“Sarah was very professional and sent updates each interaction she had with my dogs. My dogs are not necessarily easy to manage and she did phenomenally well with them. Which I am grateful for and also this was my first experience with Rover and for sure feel like I can use the app again. And would definitely ask Sarah next time.”
“Mary was an amazing sitter for my cat. Pepper is not easy, she is a little shy and is not friendly with strangers at all. However, Mary managed to win her over, and even got Pepper to ask for belly rubs! I was so happy and surprised that she got her to warm up. She sent me detailed reports and tons of photos everyday, which was great. I would 100% book Mary again and recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Kassandra lets me relax while I’m away since my kitties love her and feel comfortable which I see in all the pictures she sends , I will hire her every time I travel”
About: I have a year of hands-on experience caring for someone else’s cat, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, playtime, and spending time together. I understand that every cat has their own personality and boundaries, so I’m patient and happy to give them attention or space depending on what makes them most comfortable. I’ll carefully follow your cat’s usual routine and send you plenty of photos and updates while you’re away!
About: I have always had a strong passion for animal care and have gained hands-on experience through caring for cats and other animals in a home environment. Growing up with cats has taught me the importance of responsibility, patience, and providing consistent care to ensure their health and well-being. I treat every animal, including stray animals, with the same compassion and attention I would provide to my own pets. My experience includes maintaining fresh water supplies, monitoring food levels, providing enrichment through playtime, and creating a clean, safe, and comfortable environment that supports both their physical and emotional needs.
“Yingjie is a very caring, professional and adept cat sitter. Our cat instantly felt comfortable with her and her home (which is big and has a lot of plants for our cat to roam freely and play). She has cameras set up to ensure that the pet is safe, and diligent in feeding and petting our purball and keeping us well-updated so we are stress free when we’re away. Definitely recommend her for cat-sitting and boarding!”

I’m active and happy to go on long walks, runs, or just enjoy cozy cuddle time—whatever your dog loves most. I’ve worked with dogs professionally, raised my own pups for 14 years, and spent two decades around horses, so I understand animals.

Routines were always important to me as a previous dog owner so I completely understand how impactful they can be :) I have a townhome with a small fenced yard and two patios. I prefer dogs that can come stay with me as I’m also raising a little human (dogs must be kid friendly please). All our trash cans have clips to keep them closed and all toys are kept in an enclosed bin.

“Ezra was very communicative and attentive, and our dog Onyx had a great time! He got to play with a few other dogs his size, and Ezra made sure to introduce him to each dog 1:1 to make sure they got along first. So happy to have found a great daycare for Onyx!”
“I needed a sitter at the last minute and Tracy & Vincent stepped up. Upon first impressions they are nice and easy going. My dog, Kiki, was nervous when I dropped her off as any dog would be when in an unfamiliar environment, but when I picked her up, she seemed happy and calm. Tracy and Vincent did exactly as I asked and even sent me some photos to update. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.”
“I feel very at ease leaving Latte in this place. She has plenty of space, it’s clean, and she’s cared for by kind people who really pay attention to her needs and well-being. My weekends are so hectic, and I truly appreciate that Latte comes home tired after a day full of activities. They stay in touch with you the whole time, and the photos I receive look like a full-on photo shoot 🩷 love it 🩷”
“Tiffany took such great care of Bingo! He was so comfortable and happy with her that he didn’t even want to leave when I came to pick him up. I was honestly surprised because he is usually very shy with new people. It made me feel so good knowing he felt safe and at home with her. I would definitely book with Tiffany again!”

“Akansha took amazing care of Rook! He’s a sweet dog but is a lot to handle— sometimes getting into trash if it’s left out, running away if doors are left open or easy to open— and Akansha gave him so much love, attention, exercise, and care. She was very communicative and sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout the day and Rook came home happy and tired. I would truly recommend her to anyone!”
“Our dog is a bit hyper one and Jacqueline made him comfortable in no time. I got updates throughout the days and Ollie seems happy. Will definitely book again for future needs. Highly recommended.”

“FIrst time, using Rover for our dog, Capo. Teresa & her family, are wonderful, true dog lovers. Capo felt right at home with them & their dog Skittles. Teresa texted us pictures during his stay showing us what a good time he was having. The second day we brought him over he was so excited he couldn't wait to get to the front door. Thanks again for taking good care of our little guy and hopefully, Capo will see you all again soon!!”
“Max was great with my dog! He made me feel comfortable, and Toby is such a sweet, friendly dog. My pup came home happy, and I really appreciated the care and attention. I'd definitely recommend Max! 🐾😊”

“I’m glad Kim was our first experience with Rover because we are dog sitting a potential second dog for our household, and it was important to us that we gave exercise to our puppy.

I currently work 3 jobs as a bather, a handler and a sitter here on rover. I am a single mother and i love getting a chance to housesit and be with animals while they are in their natural habitat. Working in a daycare and grooming salon is amazing and rewarding but there is nothing like getting to spend time with them one on one. I love my work and hope to hear from you where we can discuss all details. I will always come with a doggy first aid kit and knowledge of dog/pack behavior, and I have been trained to break up dog fights in the event of any instances out in public or at home.

I’m attentive, patient, and responsible, and I love giving pets plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship. I have hands on experience caring for my own cat, including feeding, litter box care, playtime, grooming, and paying attention to changes in behavior or routine. I also have experience pet sitting for family and friends and also make sure their pet feels right at home with collecting information like their favorite treats and toys.

Pets staying with me will be cared for in a clean, comfortable, and pet friendly home.

I'm also careful about introductions and will only accept pets whose temperament and needs are a good fit for my home.

From taking care of family pets, aiding in neighboring furry friends needs and fostering those looking for homes I have grown quite familiar with what it takes to deliver excellent pet care. I’m currently working part time, without a set schedule. I would be completely available on my days off and in my free time before and after work. I love playing with animals and giving them lots of love. Your pet would never feel alone in my care and I will be sure to give them my 100% attention and priority when in their presence.
About: I am a huge animal lover who is passionate about providing top notch care and companionship to you fur babies. I have been a pet lover all my life. I get up in a house full of dogs and have general experience in care of animals for over 12 years. I am here to ensure you that your fur babies are safe, happy, and well cared for while your away. I take it to heart that you are putting your fur baby in the care of someone else and truthfully while they are with me as I treat them as my own. I work and go to school from home so I can make my own schedule. Spending time with animals makes me so happy and something I would love to do during my spare time. I promise you that I will follow your instructions, I will make sure your little furbaby is in safe hands with me. I love animals so don’t worry
About: I am blessed to have been able to grow up with dogs. They are my world. From puppy care to senior care, I can promise you the best for your loved ones. I work part-time and would love to get the opportunity to take care of your loved ones. Due to the nature of my job, from weekdays to weekends my availability is very open. I am so excited to get to know you and your fur babies!! With years of experience in dog walking, feeding, and training, I understand that pets need proper love and care to thrive. I prioritize creating a safe environment that keeps your babies stress-free. I am very communicative and will adhere to their usual routines while taking lots of pictures so you are confident in my care for them!
About: I have a great love for dogs, no matter what shape or size. I have grown up living in a household with small to medium dogs and other furry animals. I understand how much pets can affect you in a good way. I have had the privilege of taking care of older dogs, dogs with medication and even a puppy. Recently, in past two years, i have had the opportunity to also care of a cat plus a big beautiful german Shepard. My goal is to ensure and comfort your dog while you are away. I will keep the dog(s) on their regular, training routine to the specific detail you tell me. I do community service part time which is regular in my life. I am willing to have a fixed or flexible schedule for short-term jobs. Not available Sunday mornings or Tuesday nights for meet and greet. My goal is to keep your pet safe and comfortable while at the same time keep your home just as you had left it before your vacation. I had a maltipoo. She was loud when you first meet her but really shy. Also friendly enough to hold on to. She is potty trained and knows some commands. With other dogs she gets a long with them, and she just needs to warm up to them because of shyness. I kept her on dog food not human food and she weighs less than 10 lbs. She would run around and play with the younger dogs but also mellow down with the older dogs.
“Sarah did great job walking Goldie. She was helpful throughout all the walks and very good with communicating. She followed all instructions and did the very best she could do to walk my pet.”

“This is our first ever dog care experience and Quang was quickly responsive to my needs for last minutes plans. I have a super high energy GSP and and an elderly Porky. He cared for both needs and they returned home tired and happy. I also had to extend the time for care and he helped make that process very smooth. Thank you Quang! I’ll reach out for the next trip.”
“Antonette was easy to communicate, and provided great care for Bruno. She took in Bruno when he was wearing a cone due to scratching problem. She made sure he ate since he is a picky eater. I would recommend her to all my friends.”
“This was the very first time I’ve ever left my 10 year old dog, Coco with anyone and I was honestly so nervous. But Son was absolutely amazing and made the entire experience so comforting for both of us. From the beginning, communication was great and we felt completely comfortable leaving Coco in his care. It was obvious she received lots of attention, love, and care during her stay. The updates and care he provided gave me so much peace of mind. Coco came home happy, relaxed, and clearly loved. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet like family.”
“Jacqueline was great. She has excellent communication and you can see clearly that she loves animals. My dog tends to get nervous being away from me and she was very attentive to my dog's needs. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“We absolutely love Brittany!! We know our fur baby is in great hands with her. We will definitely use her again! Thanks Brittany for taking care of our baby!”
“**⭐️ 5 Stars – Amazing Dog Sitter! ⭐️** I couldn’t be happier with the care Mary provided for Kajree! From the very beginning, Mary was attentive, loving, and truly went above and beyond to make sure my pup felt safe, happy, and well-cared for. Almost daily updates (including adorable photos and videos!) gave me so much peace of mind while I was away, and it was clear Kajree had a great time with them. Whether it was walks, being goofy, or being cared for as a senior dog, Mary and her kids treated my dog like their family. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring sitter. Thank you for everything—we’ll definitely be booking again! 🐾❤️”
“Sepia was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my dog and really went above and beyond to make sure he was eating well and felt comfortable in her home. My dog came back super happy, which says everything. I would definitely recommend her services—she’s the best!”
“Sharon was communication first throughout our interactions. She setup a FaceTime call before our first visit & answered all our queries. During my pets stay, she provided timely updates. My pet came back happy & energized - I assume he had a good stay. Sharon’s family was welcoming as well.”
“Michael and Kris were amazing dog sitters! Our 12 year old mix breed dog (Kelbi) has extreme anxiety and does not do well with strangers. However she immediately fell in love with both of them and was clearly super happy when we picked her up after a one week stay. We are so happy to find Michael and Kris and will definitely use them in the future for boarding Kelbi.”
“Booked last minute and Alma was quick to respond and accommodated our fur baby, Tomi. She sent pictures and updates. She promptly responds to messages. We were running late at pickup and she was nice about it. Overall, great service. Will definitely book her again.”
“Thanks to Christopher & his wife for taking care of Yogi this past weekend. Great people! We did meet and greet few days before boarding to get acquainted and it turned out smooth. Their rescued dogs are well behaved when we did the introduction. I can tell that Christopher and his wife really cares for the dogs and professionals. I’d definely board my dog with them when I go out of town/country. Thank you guys!”
“Zuri had a fantastic time staying with Wenny and her family! We got regular updates from her and pictures. Wenny promptly messaged us whenever she had any questions about Zuri’s care instructions and took really good care of her. We were at peace the whole time Zuri was with her. Will definitely recommend Wenny to our freinds and family!”
“Leo was so happy to go back, which says everything! They took great care of him with timely updates, regular walks, and lots of playtime. The yard is nice and very dog-friendly, giving the dogs a comfortable space to play. Luna and Reki are super friendly and started playing with Leo right away, which made him feel at ease instantly. We really appreciated the photos and updates — it kept us completely stress-free knowing how his day was going. They were also very attentive to his food routine and followed all our specific instructions. We’ll definitely be booking again. Thank you for taking such good care of Leo!”
“Thao was amazing! I needed a sitter at the last minute for a weekend retreat, and she made me feel completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. My dog can be a little anxious, but Thao was incredibly patient and made sure she ate, got treats, and felt at home. Even though Thao knew I didn’t have access to my phone during the weekend, she continued sending updates, photos, and videos, which were so sweet to see when I got back. It was clear my dog was happy, well cared for, and having a great time. I would absolutely book with Thao again and highly recommend her! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Every time Sofiya and her family watch Koda, I know he is in good hands and has the best time. Her updates are timely and include pictures and the fun things he gets up to with the other dogs. I have already rebooked her for my next trip out of town.”

My current family is 3 dogs (Lu, Teo and Chiko) they use to be 4 but Emilia just dead recently and Pepe my husband, we are a really happy family.

I have much free time every day, and on weekends I’m at home the whole day, let me care about your pet and you will see how much fun and happy they will be.
“Ayushi & Parth are just the greatest! This is the second time I've used them, both times for long-term stays. We've come to think of it, not as "boarding," but as "Going away to camp!" Auggie always has a great time with them and enjoys playing with their dog, and other dogs who come to stay. Love the photos and the reports.”
