“Patricia took great care of Chloe and send me pics and videos daily, she had a blast and looked happy and relaxed when I picked her up, couldn’t find a better dog sitter for my baby.”

“I was very nervous about leaving my boy with anyone, especially since he’s my service animal! I received pictures and updates while I was away but when I picked him up, that’s when I truly knew he had enjoyed his stay. He didn’t run for the door to leave, instead, he didn’t want to leave!!! Thank you Joanne and Tilda for taking such good care of my sweet boy.”

“Estefany was great with my pup! He had such a great time and she took amazing update photos! I would recommend her to and for everyone, she’s so sweet and was so helpful! Thank you again, Estefany!”

“They took care of our Ginger really well! Mason and Kassandra updates us every now and then and makes sure to bring Ginger in the park to have fun. Ginger will definitely come back.”

“This is the 2nd time leaving our “boys” with Katie. This time they stayed 3 nights over Thanksgiving weekend. It’s really helpful that Katie is so flexible about the drop off and pick up times. She again provided video updates to show that they were doing fine. I really appreciate Katie’s knowledge and skill with animals. One of my dogs is very insecure and fearful. The other has excess nervous energy. I feel very comfortable leaving my dogs with her. I am really thankful that I found her.”

“Labren, did a great job taking care of my dog. She was open to a meet & greet with my dog. They bonded and that was important to me. I will rebook with Labren shortly as I appreciate her service and how she took care of my Soni. She provided updates with either photos or videos. Soni got a bath during her stay!! Thank you, Labren for your service! 🙂”

“Very nice people. I can tell my dog had a great time staying with them.I love how they update me too everyday about my dog. I will definitely book them again”

“We are truly grateful to Daniela for taking great care of Pepper for the several days we were away. She regularly provided us with photos and updates. We highly recommend her to anyone who may be looking for a trustworthy and responsible dog boarder. 👍🙏🏼 - Rich and Lynn”

“Vlasta was great with our fur baby. We could tell that she was comfortable staying with Vlasta because she went right for the toys. Received pictures & videos while we were away.”

“Sary was amazing with our two dogs. The communication was excellent. She shared pictures and videos with us during their entire stay. They were happy and she made them feel like home. Thank you Sary for taking care of Nacho and Gigi!”

“We loved the care and attention given to our dog by Samantha! My dog was having so much fun with her pack. The updates were frequent and thorough. We also got great pictures and videos throughout the stay. We will definitely rebook with her!”


“Sarah is absolutely the best! This was our first time leaving Big Mac with someone and we were a little nervous, but Sarah made sure to keep us updated with photos and videos. She was understanding and sweet and we could tell Big Mac loved his time there. We will definitely rebook with Sarah again!”

“Lisa and her son Eli did a wonderful job taking care of our Koda. It was his first time staying away from home since we got him, and it seemed like he had a great vacay . Will totally feel comfortable leaving him there the next time we are in need of a fur baby sitter.”

“Annette was amazing! She updated us with many photos. Nala washed and brushed out nice and fluffy when we picked her up. Our little girl was comfortable staying with Annette and we will definitely chose her again to sit our little girl.”

“I had a last minute trip and Chris was able to board my frenchie.. Chris communicates promptly and quite frequently providing pics & vids. I am grateful for their care and attention to my pup, as they kept me informed & with peace of mind while on my trip. Thank you so much!”

“We were on vacation for 2 and a half weeks- the longest we’ve been away from our dog Pippa. We left her with the best dog sitter Luciana. Her constant updates helped ease my anxiety about leaving our dog. She treated Pippa like her own- included her in car rides, park visits, puppuccino runs, and pet smart trips. She even got her a toy! I left instructions on Pippa’s routine- which she followed to a T. There is no price on having someone who loves and cares for my dog like their own. I am super grateful to have found her. Thank you Luciana, Juan, and Pippa’s new pal Pascal for giving our dog Pippa a home away from home. If you are reading this review because you have doubts, look no further— Luciana is a wonderful human being and a great pet sitter. Luciana’s dog Pascal is a good boy and gave my dog Pippa the best company! Pascal and Pippa did so well together. Pascal is well behaved and it is a testament to how great Luciana is as a pet owner and in turn a great pet sitter. I will definitely entrust my pup with her again! Thank you again for taking great care of our Pippa! ❤️”

“Stacey is always our go to for dog sitting! Our dogs are always so well cared for and come home exhausted every time! We absolutely love using Stacey for peace of mind while we are out of town ❤️❤️”

“Ashley did an amazing job with our Bella! Ashley kept us informed of how Bella was doing and included tons of cute pics daily. Our Bella seemed to really warm up to her, Jake, and even Goose. I was worried about Bella interacting with Goose, but Goose was super chill and well mannered. Bella snuggled up to Ashley, sat on her lap, played with her, and even slept in bed with her! Ashley took care of her like one of her own. It was a comfort while we were gone to know that Bella was well taken care of and, most of all, happy. Bella came home to us happy and not stressed like she has with other sitters. I hope to use Ashley as a sitter again. Thanks, Ashley!”

“Heather and her family were so welcoming with Oscar. The pics and videos she shared showed the true joy of not only watching him but the joy he had while he visited their home. Thank you for taking care of our baby”

“I left my puppy in the care of this wonderful family for three days and two nights, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I know taking care of a puppy isn’t easy, but they showed her the most genuine kindness and passion. They followed all of my instructions for her schedule—feeding her at the right times, taking her out regularly, and making sure she had plenty of attention and playtime. When I came back, my puppy looked happy, healthy, and even seemed to have grown a little! She was still her playful self, which shows she was well cared for. I really appreciate that this is a big family, so there was always someone around to keep her company. I’m very grateful for their care and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, responsible pet sitters.”

“Shawnee was amazing! She was diligent with her tasks, paid attention to details in the instructions, and arrived promptly each day. She was so good with my cat, and gave him lots of love. She also sent me tons of photos that helped tide me over until I could get home. I will definitely be working with Shawnee again in the future!”

“We took a long trip and had Samara look after our two kittens while we were gone. The kittens are not completely socialized yet, but Samara definitely won them over by the time we got back. She was very attentive, sweet, and patient with them. She also sent lots of updates and pictures!”

About: I have loved pets since I was very young. I used to take care of my brother's dog and my friends. Whenever I could, I would visit my friends to be with their dogs. I am a teacher, so I have a lot of patience with hyper pets! I am currently a teacher, so I can work Mon-Fri after 4 and on the weekends any time. During the summer and holidays, I am more flexible. I make sure that if the dog or cat needs to go out to potty, I take them out. I also walk the dogs/cats and play with them as I keep them company. I try to make sure they are safe and happy! I am not allergic to any pets.
“Elizabeth far exceeded our expectations. Bandit can be a bit of a challenge. She gave us updates after each visit and pictures. If we need a pet sitter in the future, would definitely reach out to her again.”

“Ralinda was wonderful with our sweet kitty Yoda. Always on time and very attentive to our kitty’s needs. I would highly recommend her, and I will definitely book her in the future.”

“Sheryl was VERY efficient, responsable and accommodating. Our three-legged babies loved her and were very well taken care of during the week that we were out. We highly recommend her for all your pet sitting needs!!!”

About: I've owned and cared for animals my entire life. From guinea pigs and dogs and cats to horses. Your pet's care, comfort and safety will always be my first priority. I am recently retired so I am readily available to help take care of your fur baby. I am available days, nights and most weekends. At my house I have a fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. At your house I'll follow your rules and guidance for your pet's comfort and safety

“Maryana was an amazing cat sitter - reliable, attentive, and great with my cats. Communication was excellent, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She went above and beyond and I can’t recommend her enough!”


“He did a super job in caring for my cats while I was gone. Sent lots of pics and info. House was in excellent shape, cats were well cared for. Will use him again. Highly reccomend.”


“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience thanks to Isabella! She took such wonderful care of my cat while I was in the middle of moving into a new place — which is already stressful enough. Not only was she super responsive and kind, but she also allowed me to extend the booking last minute without hesitation. Isabella gave my cat so much love and attention, and it really put my mind at ease knowing my fur baby was in such caring hands. I got regular updates, photos, and could truly tell she treated my cat like her own. I’m so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”


About: I got my first cat at 20 yrs old. Working at the SPCA in the cat room she called to me. Her name was Ella Mae (El) for short. She was sassy, sweet and very queen bee. Since then I have taken in 8 rescues and assist with TNR programs. I have dealt with the spiciest of them to the sweetest. From the biggest cats to the tiniest little bottle babies. I am a certified vet assistant and was trained in proper restraint, injections, CPR, EKG’s, and have insurance verification as well. Id love to help care for your babies!
“Taylor did an absolutely phenomenal job watching my cat, Jace, at her house! I was a bit anxious about boarding him in a new environment, but Taylor made the transition completely seamless. She provided a safe, welcoming home, and sent fantastic daily updates and photos that put my mind at ease. A highlight of the stay was how wonderfully Jace got along with her dog—they even ended up sleeping together! It was so heartwarming to see him making friends and feeling that comfortable. Jace returned home incredibly relaxed and happy. I highly recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a loving, attentive pet sitter, and will absolutely book with her again!”

“Melinda was fantastic with our cats and went above and beyond! Highly recommend her watching over your cats, and I'll be using her services again for our next trip!”

“I recently had the pleasure of having Ashley drop in to watch my dogs, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals and knows how to handle them with care and expertise. My dogs took to her immediately, which is a great sign since they can be a bit picky with new people. Ashley was attentive to their needs, making sure they were fed, walked, and given plenty of playtime and affection. She also kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Ashley’s professionalism and warm personality made the whole experience seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. She truly went above and beyond, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future.”

About: I’m a responsible, loving, and attentive pet caretaker who treats every animal like my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet cuddle time, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. With experience and genuine love for animals, I’m committed to giving them the attention and affection they deserve while you're away. I also provide you with updates through texts with pictures! I am a stay at home mom with a furbaby of our own, and I have complete open availability for overnight stays and play dates! "We have a large fenced in backyard that offers plenty of space for play and relaxation, nestled in a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac. Our friendly 2 yr old Golden Retriever, Lucy, loves to play fetch and welcomes new friends with a wagging tail. Pets are treated like family in our home-they're welcome on our oversized sectional. Fresh water is always available, along with treats (with your permission), and a variety of toys to keep them entertained and happy
“Melinda is great! Charlie had a doggie day with her in preparation for an upcoming longer stay. I love she sends me pictures of my Charlie! Looking forward to having Charlie stay again!”

“Incredible dog sitter! Leo felt right at home from the moment he arrived. A beautiful yard to play in and greatly enjoyed hanging with Coco! Every day he came home to me happy as can be.”

About: I am almost done with my CVA, which has given me hands-on experience with animal care and a strong understanding of animal behavior, basic health needs, and how to recognize when a pet may be stressed, uncomfortable, or need extra attention. I’m very attentive to routines like feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific care instructions you have for your pet. I also volunteered at a horse rescue for 6 years, which has helped me become even more patient and comfortable working with animals that all have different personalities and needs. Whether your pet is a playful puppy who needs consistency and extra energy or an older pet who needs a gentler approach, I’m confident in providing calm, dependable care and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I currently attend CVA school Monday through Thursday from 6-10 PM, and because it’s a veterinary program, I’m able to bring new animals with me every day if that’s something an owner is comfortable with. This allows me to spend even more time with your pet and keep them with me throughout the day. Outside of school, I’m available the rest of the day and can realistically spend most, if not all, of my time with your pet. I also care for my own animals every day, including my dogs, cat, and reptiles—a snake, bearded dragon, turtle, and leopard gecko—so feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, cleaning cages, and keeping their spaces clean are all part of my normal routine. My entire day is basically centered around animals between school and caring for my own pets, so pet sitting fits very naturally into my life. I care for pets with a lot of attention, and fun! I usually feed my pets at the same time every day and follow a schedule, but I keep it flexible so it works for each pet’s needs. I give dry food and simple medications like NexGard but, I also have experience handling special diets and other medications. Playtime happens whenever pets seem bored or want to go outside. I have lots of toys, treats, and fun activities inside, and I enjoy running with dogs outside or taking them on car rides. I also do some basic training for fun, though I’m not a professional trainer. I keep spaces clean and comfortable, cages and tanks are cleaned regularly, puppy pads are replaced, and everything is wiped down with disinfectant as needed. Pets have their own quiet areas, toys, and treats to feel calm and safe. I’m very observant of their behavior, so I can notice when something feels off. Pets aren’t left alone for long, except when I’m at school for a few hours. I’m used to managing multiple pets at once by keeping a close eye on everyone and giving each animal their own space when needed. My home is very clean, and I constantly sweep, mop, and vacuum. Overall, I make sure pets are happy, safe, and comfortable, and I treat them as part of my family giving lots of love, attention, and care every day.
“Stacey was awesome with Skya. She made her feel right at home and when I picked her up, she was happy to see me. I felt at ease leaving Skya with Stacey and will definitely bring her back again. If you're looking for someone that will care for your fur babies, Stacey is the one to reach out to.”

“From the moment we dropped off our pup, I felt completely at ease. My dog was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She sent regular updates with photos and messages, which meant the world to me and gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. I will definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”


“Best sitter we’ve ever booked. Took care of our dog as if it was hers and constantly provided pictures/videos (this is not something every sitter do to be honest.) Also she was super flexible and understanding. Always ready and responsive. Lastly our dog was super super happy to go with her (we booked 4 days for daycare) and when we picked him up each day he had no stress or anxiety, so it was obvious he had a lot of play and attention.”

“Annette is amazing! She really loves dogs. Her set up for dogs is phenomenal. My dog loved her from the start. She sent pictures through out the day. She let me know how he did when I picked him up as well. I won’t hesitate to take my precious dog back to her. She’s very professional as well. She relieved all of my fears about using a dog sitter.”

“Maria es una persona super amable, ella fue cariñosa con mi perrito, cada dia que estuvo con el me enviaba fotos videos, lo llevaba a caminar, jugaban con el y le dio mucho mucho amor 🧡 Gracias Maria te tendremos en consideración para una proxima ocasión”

I plan my schedule around feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins, making sure each pet gets consistent attention and care throughout the day and week.

This includes feeding on schedule, walks or playtime, cleaning up after them, and giving lots of attention. I also make sure their space is safe, clean, and comfortable, and I keep owners updated so they feel at ease while they’re away.

“Shannon was absolutely amazing with Beau while I was away! 🐾💕 She treated him as if he were her own and gave me complete peace of mind the entire time. She was attentive, dependable, and went above and beyond in every way. Shannon sent so many sweet pictures and videos, kept me updated, and even surprised Beau with a squeaky toy 🥹. It was so clear how genuinely she cares for animals, and Beau looked so happy, comfortable, and loved in her care. I truly could not have asked for a better experience and would wholeheartedly trust her again. I highly recommend Shannon to anyone looking for compassionate, trustworthy, and reliable pet care.

I make sure to keep a good eye on pets, taking them out regularly and making sure they’re properly fed and cared for, especially should specific needs have to be met. Typically, I spend my time in the home near and around the animals, even if not actively playing or interacting with them. I let pets go on as they normally would, so as to let them stay comfortable, as long as I can keep an eye on them.
“Elizabeth was great with my dog! Kept me updated on how my girl was and very patient with her as my dog was a little nervous at first when she got there for her walk. I received a picture of my girl and even an update on my cat! I will definitely rebook for her to come see my dog for a walk!”

She again provided video updates to show that they were doing fine. I really appreciate Katie’s knowledge and skill with animals. One of my dogs is very insecure and fearful. The other has excess nervous energy. I feel very comfortable leaving my dogs with her. I am really thankful that I found her.”

“Very nice people. I can tell my dog had a great time staying with them.I love how they update me too everyday about my dog. I will definitely book them again”

“Sary was amazing with our two dogs. The communication was excellent. She shared pictures and videos with us during their entire stay. They were happy and she made them feel like home. Thank you Sary for taking care of Nacho and Gigi!”

“We loved the care and attention given to our dog by Samantha! My dog was having so much fun with her pack. The updates were frequent and thorough. We also got great pictures and videos throughout the stay. We will definitely rebook with her!”


“Sarah is absolutely the best! This was our first time leaving Big Mac with someone and we were a little nervous, but Sarah made sure to keep us updated with photos and videos. She was understanding and sweet and we could tell Big Mac loved his time there. We will definitely rebook with Sarah again!”

“Lisa and her son Eli did a wonderful job taking care of our Koda. It was his first time staying away from home since we got him, and it seemed like he had a great vacay . Will totally feel comfortable leaving him there the next time we are in need of a fur baby sitter.”

“I had a last minute trip and Chris was able to board my frenchie.. Chris communicates promptly and quite frequently providing pics & vids. I am grateful for their care and attention to my pup, as they kept me informed & with peace of mind while on my trip. Thank you so much!”

“We were on vacation for 2 and a half weeks- the longest we’ve been away from our dog Pippa. We left her with the best dog sitter Luciana. Her constant updates helped ease my anxiety about leaving our dog. She treated Pippa like her own- included her in car rides, park visits, puppuccino runs, and pet smart trips. She even got her a toy! I left instructions on Pippa’s routine- which she followed to a T. There is no price on having someone who loves and cares for my dog like their own. I am super grateful to have found her. Thank you Luciana, Juan, and Pippa’s new pal Pascal for giving our dog Pippa a home away from home. If you are reading this review because you have doubts, look no further— Luciana is a wonderful human being and a great pet sitter. Luciana’s dog Pascal is a good boy and gave my dog Pippa the best company! Pascal and Pippa did so well together. Pascal is well behaved and it is a testament to how great Luciana is as a pet owner and in turn a great pet sitter. I will definitely entrust my pup with her again! Thank you again for taking great care of our Pippa! ❤️”

“Stacey is always our go to for dog sitting! Our dogs are always so well cared for and come home exhausted every time! We absolutely love using Stacey for peace of mind while we are out of town ❤️❤️”

“Heather and her family were so welcoming with Oscar. The pics and videos she shared showed the true joy of not only watching him but the joy he had while he visited their home. Thank you for taking care of our baby”

“I left my puppy in the care of this wonderful family for three days and two nights, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I know taking care of a puppy isn’t easy, but they showed her the most genuine kindness and passion. They followed all of my instructions for her schedule—feeding her at the right times, taking her out regularly, and making sure she had plenty of attention and playtime. When I came back, my puppy looked happy, healthy, and even seemed to have grown a little! She was still her playful self, which shows she was well cared for. I really appreciate that this is a big family, so there was always someone around to keep her company. I’m very grateful for their care and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving, responsible pet sitters.”

“Eyran was great! Our fur baby was always getting the love that we give him at home. Eyran took time to send pics and updates. We felt like we were there even though we were halfway around the world. Thank you Eyran for keeping Randy so happy and healthy. He looks forward to his next visit.”

“Melina and her family are so loving and kind to our baby London. Having a good reliable sitter really pushes my husband and I to go away more often. We look forward to our next trip and London looks forward to her time spent with Melina and her family.”

“If I could give 6 stars I would. Lovely people and my dog was treated Great. Madeline sent pics everyday of how our dog was doing and how much love and exercise he was getting. Highly recommend.”

“We needed a new Sitter for our sassy girl but we are super picky! Krystal checked all of the boxes for us and Willow was right at home with her family. The home is clean and bright and the fenced yard is a plus for our frisbee-loving girl. Willow came home very happy and we will be 100% be booking again. Thank you so much!!”

“Cheyenne, was wonderful with our dog Emmie. She sent us photos every day for the month she had her. Emmie was very well cared for and even had her own little treats that Cheyenne bought for her. I would highly recommend Cheyenne and am so happy we found her on rover. We will absolutely be boarding Emmie when our next big adventure comes along.”


“Bradley was so great. We had never used rover before and he was so patient with all our questions and was very understanding and accommodating for us. We definitely plan to have Wally stay with him again. Thanks for caring for him as we would.”

“By far one of the best exp I’ve had with this app. Angelica took great care of my fur baby, so much she didn’t want to leave 😂 would highly recommend using Angelica.”
