“We couldn't be happier with the care Jaime provided for our dog, Maggie! This was Maggie’s first time away from home, and since she is very fearful outside of her usual surroundings, we were nervous about how she would adjust. Jaime was incredibly patient and understanding, taking the time to make sure Maggie felt safe and comfortable. She truly cared about Maggie’s well-being, helping her acclimate to a new environment with both people and pets. It was amazing to see Maggie grow to trust Jaime enough to sit and even sleep near her! We are so grateful for Jaime’s kindness and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and attentive pet sitter.”
“Maureen was an incredible dog sitter who treated our 2 dogs like family from the moment they met. Communication was excellent, with prompt updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. Maureen is reliable, caring, and truly passionate about animals, we highly recommend to anyone.”
“Yvette was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time boarding with Rover and it was a great experience. She treated my dog like her own & it was obvious they had a good time! Yvette sent lots of pictures & videos, took my dog on a bunch of long walks and played fetch. She has a great set up in her house with plenty of toys and the perfect backyard for play. Would highly recommend Yvette!”
“I left my dog with Lineth for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She followed Cosmo’s routine perfectly and treated him with so much love and attention that I felt completely at ease. It’s not always easy to leave your pet, but knowing he was in such good hands made all the difference. Moving forward, she will definitely be my first choice for Cosmo. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their dog! Thanks 🙏”
“Our Brooke stayed by Radwa while we were off on a family vacation for 7 days. Brooke was very well taken care of and a very happy girl when we got home. She loves Radwa, her family and her pups. It’s nice to be away and not have to worry about your beloved pup. We highly recommend Radwa.”
“Mohita was really a very compassionate detail oriented sitter. Romeo had the best time as he had coco to play with Mohita family treated him as family. He felt he was at home. We had a worry free vacation as Mohita kept us updated on Romeo with pictures and how he was doing with his diet and other activities. Overall we can’t expect anything more from Mohita and family.”
“Jonathan and Rebecca did an amazing job watching our two senior Malteses while we went to Barbados for our honeymoon! Would absolutely recommend them to anyone. They kept us updated and the boys super happy. Fantastic experience thank you guys so much!!!”
“Pam was great taking care of my two dogs! Pam regularly sent pictures and gave us updates. They even ran out of food during their stay and Pam was nice enough to share her dog’s food with my dogs. Overall, I would recommend Pam to any dog owners. I’m positive our dogs enjoyed their “vacation” with Pam!”
“Can’t say enough about how great Debbi was with Buddy. Debbi’s warmth and love for animals was apparent from our first meeting. While we were away Debbi sent updates and pictures which was awesome! Do not have any hesitation in asking her to look after your pets. She is great!”
“By far this has been Jalisa has been my best sitter so far. She kept me up to date with my fur baby’s activities and took great care of my dog. So much so, that I nearly had to drag my baby out of there. I will definitely be back.”
“I had a really great experience boarding Leo at Bhavani’s home! From the moment I sent her a request for boarding, I felt completely at ease. Bhavani has a calm, nurturing energy and a true love for animals that shows in everything she does. Her home is set up perfectly for dogs—safe, clean, and full of cozy spots and open space for play. It’s such a comforting alternative to a traditional kennel. My dog settled in quickly and was treated like a part of her family the entire time. What really stood out was the personal attention Bhavani gave. She took the time to understand my dog’s routines and personality, and she kept me updated with sweet messages and photos during the stay. It meant the world to know he was not only well cared for, but also genuinely loved. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so grateful we found Bhavani and wouldn’t hesitate to leave him in her care again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a home-based, heart-centered boarding experience!”
“I was so glad that I found suna on Rover last minute. suna and her husband took such great care of Charlie and I felt at ease during my entire vacation, knowing that Charlie was in good hands . They kept me updated daily and send pictures. I was so happy to see Charlie getting so much love and attention.”
“Letitia was great! She made sure to update me with pics and videos every day. I truly believe Captain enjoyed himself with her dog Bentley, her children and her fenced in backyard. Being that we live in a townhome community Captain doesn’t get the luxury to run around without leash. The best part about Letitia is Captain was the only dog she dog sat during the week bc she respected the fact that he’s not fully vaccinated yet. 😊 I’ll definitely book again! Thank you Letitia.”
“Alice was great. Sparky was so happy with her and comfortable that he almost did not see me when I came to pick him up. Would definitely recommend and we would be working with her again”
“Bonnie was available for a first time, last minute boarding request and the whole experience from a quick meet and greet onwards was great. Very reassuring to have Luke stay at her home. He was comfortable for sure. Thank you!”

“Mike was communicative, adherent to our schedule, and followed all instructions requested of him. He also sent a ton of pictures, which I really appreciated. It was refreshing to just be able to enjoy my trip knowing that my dog was taken care of. I would absolutely recommend him to others (just not during the times I’m away 😉)”
“We have used Adriane on a previous occasion and we're so pleased with the excellent care Jesse got that we felt super comfortable leaving Jesse in her care for an extended time. Adrienne sends pictures and videos every day and it is obvious that Jesse adores Adriane. Highly recommended!”
“Carol was excellent. She responded to my initial request promptly and confirmed the visit one day in advance. She arrived an 1/2hr earlier than scheduled. My dogs took an immediate liking to her. She took plenty of pics and kept me posted throughout the visit. I also want to mention how patient she was with my special need fur-baby Duke. Her patience, attention to detail and persistence is what Duke needed for his “special issue”. Thank you Carol. I will definitely rebook future visits with her.”
“Very professional and courteous! Met my cats before the booking, then came for feeds and injectable insulin. Sent photos and a message letting me know they were doing well! I will definitely reach out and reserve again.”

She gave updates and was very responsive if I had any questions or other requests! Milo had a buddy for the weekend while I was gone, and I’d definitely book with her again! Thanks Lizbeth 😽🐾”
“Shane and the M2M academy far exceeded my expectations being a first time Rover client. They were patient, answered all my questions and provided unbelievable care to my guy Hendrix. Shared pictures and videos daily. Brought in my mail. From top to bottom, the nicest people you could work with AND actual care and concern for my little guy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
“Ana was great with our two 5 month old kittens for the weekend! She always kept in contact, and sent lots of pics too. Play time was a must with them, and she sent us silly videos of them flipping around with their toys. They seemed very happy with full tummies and some cuddles too. Highly recommend!”

“Eleanor went completely above and beyond to take care of my cats! One of my cats is a too smart for his own good, and he ended up getting into a specific cabinet for the first time and eating a whole bag of treats. Eleanor found a way to keep him out of that cabinet, and she also spent extra time with him to make sure he wasn't having any digestive problems. She's also super knowledgeable about cats and was so communicative with me the whole time I was gone!”
“Michael was amazing with our cat pepper! He came for a meet and greet before our trip, and sent us detailed updates every visit including multiple pictures. It was clear that our cat (who doesn’t love people) loved Michael! We will definitely be using him again for our next trip!”

“Barbara is great! I have an 8 week old Labrador retriever, full of puppy energy and I was very carefully vetting someone I felt could handle him with authentic love and care but who also understands dogs in all stages of their lives. After reading about Barbara and her experience and love for animals my gut told me she was the right choice. I was right! She was accommodating, punctual, friendly, kept me updated throughout the day & took pictures which made me feel at ease knowing he was thriving in her care. She has a beautiful yard which is a huge plus cause I know my boy got some good fun & exercise. Will definitely rebook :)!”
About: I know how much pets mean to their families. I am a pet parent too. I understand the anxiety we all feel while boarding our fur babies. When your furry friend/baby stays with me, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving them their favorite treat, or extra cuddles when they’re missing you, I make their comfort my priority. I have hands-on experience providing safe, reliable, and loving care ensuring they feel at home even when their family is away. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of different breeds, ages, and temperaments—covering everything from daily feeding and exercise to giving medications and keeping them calm in new environments. Why families trust me: I care for each pet as if they were my own. I keep their routine consistent, so they feel at home. I’m patient and gentle with pets that are shy, or need extra attention. I send updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your pet is doing. Most importantly—I give them the love, play, and companionship they deserve. We have comfortable living space, big fenced back yard for them to run, play fetch or just outdoor supervised play time. Also I am available to take them on walks. Socialization opportunity- We have a very friendly labradoodle, visiting friends have the chance to socialize, play and engage in positive interactions with another well behaved dogs. We have multiple gates, if required they will be separated during meal times. They are allowed to sleep on our couch, in our bedroom as well. You are welcome to bring anything like bedding or their favorite toys, blankets if that will make them more comfortable. Before first visit we will have meet and greet in my backyard, to be sure everyone gets along well. In all they will get lots of love, care, play time and of course lots of cuddles. I am currently working part time with flexible schedule, so pretty much open to work around your drop off and pick up time. I do go out for school picks up and drop off which is quick or to run some errands and appointments but just for couple of hours and I do have cameras on the pups. We have a fenced yard and one very friendly fur baby to keep your baby safe and have fun. I have multiple gates too, which can ne used to separate them if needed
“Suna provided outstanding and loving care to Buddy while he was with her. Buddy enjoyed going to her home every day and playing with her sweet Maltese, Mimi. The two dogs became forever friends! Suna communicated with us daily, providing text and photo updates, clearly indicating that Buddy was well taken care of during his time with her. I highly recommend Suna if you're looking for someone who will go the extra mile to insure that your beloved pet is safe and happy, whether for overnight stays or daytime care.”

“Lineth is a great sitter. We left Pie with Lineth for the day and she took really good care of him. Usually Pie takes a lot of time to adjust to a new person but Lineth was able to bond with him quite quickly. That's a testament to her skills. Next time we need a sitter for Pie in NJ, we will definitely reach out to Lineth. Also Lineth was wonderful at keeping us updated. Even though Pie was with her for a few hours, we got regular pictures and texts. Fantastic experience overall.”
“William is an excellent Dog Sitter. His hours are very flexible, if I get stuck at work a little late. My dog loves him. As soon as we pull up to the house, he starts wagging his tail all excited to go visit his new friends.”
“Mary Jo was one of the best care takers we have had through out our travels. She gave our boy all the attention he needed. She kept us informed with lots of pictures and text messages on what they were doing and how Archie was adjusting. We used Mary Jo for two days of daycare. On our second day we had trouble with the bus tour we took which caused us many delays on completing our site seeing adventures then when we were finally on our way to pick our boy up our GPS took us to a different town which delayed us again for another hour. Throughout all these delays and my stress level rising Mary Jo kept assuring me that everything was ok and not to worry. With assuring us throughout these delays she helped me relax and go with the flow. I will definitely use Mary Jo again whenever I am in the area. Archie was very happy in her care.”

She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and so genuinely caring—it’s obvious that this isn’t just a job for her, but something she puts her whole heart into. Rafa is wonderfully gentle and patient with Jax, and the bond they’ve built is so special to see. Jax gets genuinely excited to see her, which says everything.

About: I've been dog walking, sitting, boarding for over 10 years now! I had my German Shepherd Rony for 10 years and my life changed the day we brought him home. Because of him I have a super active lifestyle. I live to go on walks, hikes, runs, and love to explore new places and go on adventures! I've taken care of puppies that need basic training all the way to senior dogs that need extra care. From the smallest pups all the way to giants - I adore them all!! I am working from home, so your pet will always get endless love, belly rubs, walks, and anything and everything else they love! Having had my German shepherd that I trusted only a handful of people to take care of him, I understand the level of trust a pet owner must have for their pet sitter / walker, and I know I can be that temporary companion for them! :) hope to meet your pup soon!! I'm currently working from home so I am very flexible on walks, daily care, and pup sitting! I do request for dog sitting to get an early heads up as we love adventuring during the weekend. But if pet owner is ok with it, I would love to bring your pup along for the adventures!! :) I have a big fenced yard for plenty running and playing fetch, but I never leave your pup unattended! If needed, and your pup is crate trained I have different sized playpens and crates. I understand it takes every pup a different amount of time to get used to a new environment and I work with every pup individually. Just like humans, everyone has their own personality :)

“We couldn't be happier with the care Jaime provided for our dog, Maggie! This was Maggie’s first time away from home, and since she is very fearful outside of her usual surroundings, we were nervous about how she would adjust. Jaime was incredibly patient and understanding, taking the time to make sure Maggie felt safe and comfortable. She truly cared about Maggie’s well-being, helping her acclimate to a new environment with both people and pets. It was amazing to see Maggie grow to trust Jaime enough to sit and even sleep near her! We are so grateful for Jaime’s kindness and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and attentive pet sitter.”
“Maureen was an incredible dog sitter who treated our 2 dogs like family from the moment they met. Communication was excellent, with prompt updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. Maureen is reliable, caring, and truly passionate about animals, we highly recommend to anyone.”
“Yvette was absolutely wonderful! This was my first time boarding with Rover and it was a great experience. She treated my dog like her own & it was obvious they had a good time! Yvette sent lots of pictures & videos, took my dog on a bunch of long walks and played fetch. She has a great set up in her house with plenty of toys and the perfect backyard for play. Would highly recommend Yvette!”
“I left my dog with Lineth for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She followed Cosmo’s routine perfectly and treated him with so much love and attention that I felt completely at ease. It’s not always easy to leave your pet, but knowing he was in such good hands made all the difference. Moving forward, she will definitely be my first choice for Cosmo. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their dog! Thanks 🙏”
“Our Brooke stayed by Radwa while we were off on a family vacation for 7 days. Brooke was very well taken care of and a very happy girl when we got home. She loves Radwa, her family and her pups. It’s nice to be away and not have to worry about your beloved pup. We highly recommend Radwa.”
“By far this has been Jalisa has been my best sitter so far. She kept me up to date with my fur baby’s activities and took great care of my dog. So much so, that I nearly had to drag my baby out of there. I will definitely be back.”
“I had a really great experience boarding Leo at Bhavani’s home! From the moment I sent her a request for boarding, I felt completely at ease. Bhavani has a calm, nurturing energy and a true love for animals that shows in everything she does. Her home is set up perfectly for dogs—safe, clean, and full of cozy spots and open space for play. It’s such a comforting alternative to a traditional kennel. My dog settled in quickly and was treated like a part of her family the entire time. What really stood out was the personal attention Bhavani gave. She took the time to understand my dog’s routines and personality, and she kept me updated with sweet messages and photos during the stay. It meant the world to know he was not only well cared for, but also genuinely loved. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well looked after. I’m so grateful we found Bhavani and wouldn’t hesitate to leave him in her care again. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a home-based, heart-centered boarding experience!”
“Letitia was great! She made sure to update me with pics and videos every day. I truly believe Captain enjoyed himself with her dog Bentley, her children and her fenced in backyard. Being that we live in a townhome community Captain doesn’t get the luxury to run around without leash. The best part about Letitia is Captain was the only dog she dog sat during the week bc she respected the fact that he’s not fully vaccinated yet. 😊 I’ll definitely book again! Thank you Letitia.”
“Tanvi and her family are so loving and caring towards Chestnut. We love seeing the videos and photos she sends. He has a great time with their Shih-Tzu Happy. Thank you!”
“We’ve found a new friend! Laraine came to my home to meet our new pup, Spring, an 8 month rescued blue heeler border collie mix with a TON of energy. It is clear from her interaction with Spring and our discussion that she LOVES dogs. We booked for two walks but had to change to boarding due to a tropical storm. Laraine changed the plans, with ease, and she AND her family welcomed our Spring with open arms. When I picked Spring up I’m not convinced she really wanted to leave! ?Grateful to the colleague who referred rover.com and grateful for all who took the time to rate Laraine’s services and leave a review, it’s why I chose her!”
“Was worried since this was a first time visiting this house with Milo and Maui but they looked so comfortable! I was so happy to see my cats and Lenny was so sweet and caring. Both my cats were able to have seperate rooms which was also so great.”
“William is a blessing. He took very good care of Badger while I was traveling abroad. He made me feel very calm and sent pictures every day. Williams’s dog Whiskey is very nice and helped Badger fit right in. He is very considerate and gave updates every day of how Badger is doing.”
“Kavya watched our pup Loki for 3 days while we attended a family wedding. Loki is always with us so he is not the best at staying with new people, but when we picked him up and from the pictures and videos she sent, Loki was very happy, which meant we were very happy. Highly, highly recommended Kavya to anyone looking for a responsive and caring sitter for their fuzzy kids.”
“We had such a great experience leaving Bruno in Raj’s care for the night! From the start, him and his wife were incredibly communicative in sending us regular updates, pictures, and even videos that gave us total peace of mind. It was clear our pup was having a blast and being very well taken care of. Their dog Kaju was great company for our dog Bruno. They were also extremely knowledgeable about dogs and handled everything with confidence and care.. Bruno got plenty of playtime, attention, and love, and we could tell he felt comfortable and happy the entire time. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Raj again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and caring dog sitter!”
“My wife and I so greatly appreciate Lupe's exceptional care of my 2 year old dog, Roopert (Roo) during my first Rover experience, which was an entire week! We are accustomed to leaving Roo with close family or friends, so I was initially apprehensive about Rover. However, Lupe's outstanding communication and daily updates, including plenty of photos and videos eased our worries. With Roopert weighing almost 70 lbs and bursting with energy, I truly appreciated Lupe's dedication to spending quality time playing with him, including fetch in his spacious, fully fenced yard, and just his overall competence as it pertained to dog behavior, and the needs associated. When I picked up Roopert this morning, he looked fantastic – clean, content, and absolutely joyful. Lupe's top-notch service and genuine care for our boy are so greatly appreciated. I wholeheartedly recommend Lupe to anyone seeking trustworthy and loving care for their furry friend. Thanks, Lupe!”
