“Cosmo had his own vacation while I was away! Michael & Regina took excellent care of him, and I got frequent updates to let me know how much he was enjoying himself! Highly recommend these excellent pet lovers.”

“Jeffany was absolutely wonderful with our little pup Lucky! She and her partner are so warm and caring, you can tell instantly that they truly love the dogs they take care of. I knew Lucky would be in the best hands! They took such great care of him and went above and beyond when he had some tummy troubles. We got lots of pictures and were able to rest easy knowing he was having fun and getting lots of cuddles. Lucky also really enjoyed their huge fenced backyard…I love that he can go there and play outside in a super secure area. We are so thankful we found Jeffany and will definitely be reaching out again soon for her to watch Lucky!”

The updates they sent made me smile and reassured Netty was in good hands. Their dog Winnie is adorable and eager to play with your dog any chance she gets! 100% recommend booking with them! Will book again soon. Thank you for a great experience”

“Eric and Polly are fantastic! They are so caring and Colby loves spending time there! We can go on vacation knowing that he feels at home and that he is in a safe and loving environment.”

“Wonderful pet parents- took fantastic care of my little guy. Sent great updates while he was there. They obviously have many many years of pet ownership and of pet sitting experience. And their little dog is adorable and got along extremely well with mine. I know he is looking forward to his next visit at their home!”

“Lynn always goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my 16 year old chihuahuas. She doesn’t just watch them, she loves and cares for them in a way that every pet lover dreams of when it comes to their animals. Along with daily pictures and messages, Lynn even gave us a framed picture of my two pups that I will forever cherish! Could not recommend enough- I even think my dogs were sad when I picked them up because their vacay at Lynn’s was over!”
“Summer was awesome! She sent pictures, responded quickly and cared for my pup with lots of love. I plan to refer her to friends/family and I will be booking again in the future.”


“Can’t recommend Archna enough! We’ve used her in the past and will continue to use her for our 6 year old shepherd. Very communicative and responsive and takes great care of our girl. Our dog is truly a member of our family so finding someone who will give her personal attention and treat her as a member of theirs is very important to us. Knowing she’s is such great hands allows us to really be able to relax and enjoy our vacation.”

“I think Rudy had more fun on his “vacation” than we did! Tom, Tolley, and the kids took such wonderful care of him during his stay! We loved seeing the updates and photos sent every day. We highly recommend! Thank you again!”

“Pamela took great care of Millie while I was on vacation. I had been worried about leaving my dog for a week, but Pam sent me daily updates and pictures, and it was clear Millie was enjoying her time there. She got to spend plenty of time outdoors, and I am sure she also enjoyed the company of Schipp - who was always near by :) I highly recommend Pam - we will be using her again. It's a relief knowing I now have someone I can trust Millie's care to while I am out of town!”

“My dog, Lola, enjoyed Thanksgiving week with Samantha and I’ve already booked the Christmas holiday week for her. That’s high praise for Samantha’s positive style & work ethics. ***** 5 stars!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Margaret! She took such great care of our Lightning, and kept us updated throughout our trip with the sweetest photos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving and capable hands. Lightning looked so happy and relaxed—we could tell she was truly well cared for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, easy-to-work-with and attentive sitter!”

“This was my 1st time boarding my dogs and I couldn’t have been happier with Kyle and his wife. I got daily updates and pictures. I could tell my babies were at ease from the very beginning and I have found my dog sitters!!!!!”

“Kathy was everything we could have hoped for in a dog-sitter - attentive, experienced, patient, reliable. Our pooch has physical disabilities which require additional time and effort. Kathy rose to the occasion with both professional and gentle acumen. Her work as a nurse certainly added to her skills. We wouldn’t hesitate to leave our fur baby with her and to whole-heartedly recommend her to all.”

“As a first time user of rover services, I can not speak highly enough of the great care, new experiences, and love Ron and his wife provided to my staffy, Abra.

“Kristi has become my permanent go-to sitter. She is dependable and has good intuition. She was concerned when my senior cat didn't seem quite himself and alerted me right away. She offered to do a bonus visit the following morning just to check on him, and I was glad she was able to do so. In the end, he was fine - just a quirky senior cat -- and I could enjoy the rest of my trip without worrying.”

“Emily was so great! She house sat for us on short notice and was flexible and great at communicating. She treated our 2 cats with great care and provided daily pictures and videos so we could see how they were doing. She left our house neat and tidy and was professional and friendly throughout her stay. Would highly recommend Emily and look forward to having her help us in the future!”

“James was fantastic with our cats. He had thoughtful questions prior to us being away, and was really communicative during our time away. He went above and beyond when we had a sensor issue with our Simplisafe alarm system.”

“Bethany is fantastic. We always feel so comfortable knowing she’s looking after our 3 cats- one of which has late stage kidney disease and needs special attention. She’s so easy to communicate with and sends great updates and pictures.”


“Leslie took very good care of my two kitties for a week, dropping in twice daily to feed and interact a bit with them while I was gone. She sent pics daily too, as well as brining in the mail and even going the extra mile to do a bit of watering on the back patio per my request. I would highly recommend Leslie!”

“Jackie was a super great sitter for our 3 kitties! She’s very communicative and takes lots of pictures. Our kitties seemed to enjoy her company, too.”


“Julia was fantastic! She was kind, compassionate, and caring towards my kitties and she followed my instructions perfectly (since I have a cat that needs medication). She helped ease my anxiety, gave me updated pictures daily, and was quick to respond if I had any comments or questions. I will absolutely be using her services in the future!”

“"I am so grateful to have found Leah! She was an absolute lifesaver when I needed someone to take care of my cat, Amba. She was clearly well-cared for, and I received regular updates with photos and videos. I could tell that Leah genuinely loves cats, and Amba seemed to love her too! I would highly recommend Leah to anyone looking for a reliable and loving cat sitter."”

“Mitch did a great job during drop ins to check on my three cats! He sent photos and videos and always kept in contact! I always felt my cats were in good hands while I was gone. And my apartment looks just as I left it! He went above and beyond, and I will book with Mitch in the future for sure!”

“We are really thankful to Alicia for taking such great care of our precious boy. She followed the provided instructions really well and it's clear that she is very passionate about animals and her profession, and she's very professional and personable. We would certainly recommend her services to others and would utilize them in our future need as well.”

“Ellen was amazing - sent me pictures each time she stopped in to take care of my cat, and was always very responsive and quick at responding! My adult senior cat needs some extra attention, and Ellen did just that! Will definitely be using her again. Thanks, Ellen!”

“Lexie was fantastic with daily check ins for my sweet cat while we were away for almost two weeks. She gave her a lot of loves, playtime, and special treats, sending me lots of pics each time so I got to stay updated on her happenings. I’ll definitely rebook in the future and highly recommend!”

“Sophia is so sweet! She’s helped look after my cats during a few extended work trips and was happy to help when they needed medicine or special instructions. Now whenever I’m planning to be away, booking Sophia has become routine. The cats are typically shy but they sure like her and she goes above/beyond every time.”

“When I say she goes above and beyond for your fur baby, I’m even underselling her. Arianna went above and beyond for my newly adopted 14 yr old cat, she did drop in visits for me over the weekend of July 4th. She was so attentive, so patient and so kind. She definitely helped Goldie feel so much better after a loud July 4th. Thank you Ariana!!!”

We also love that she is absolutely great with pets and took the time to understand the rest of our needs and requests for our fur-baby. Thank You! Will definitely request again!”

I will book with Samantha anytime I can in the future if the pups need a sitter! She is AMAZING!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


About: My husband and I own a very sweet, playful Great Dane/mastiff and a pure bred English Mastiff. We have experience with all kinds of dogs and other animals. We have a large finished upstairs where our dog loves to run and play. We have a large backyard that is fully fenced/gated. We walk daily (in nice weather). We have fun toys to play with and a whole room for your dog to sleep in (instead of a cage) but if your dog prefers a cage we have a huge one he can sleep in (or you can bring your own). I stay home so your pet will have plenty of company! We have three young girls who absolutely love playing with dogs. They are gentle and dogs always love them.
“Nugget gets so excited on the mornings I tell him he is going to “Ms. Susan’s”! He had another great day with Susan and Frankie! I enjoy having peace of mind that he is so well cared for while I’m at work. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have a high-energy dog that has prepared me in all aspects of pet care! I am well-versed in on- and off-leash exercise and have plenty of ideas for indoor enrichment activities. Having raised my own dog from 6 weeks old, I’m familiar with all of the accidents that can happen when pets are home alone. I’ve also cared for elderly and medically-complex dogs. I work remotely during the school year and have summers off. My work is in pacific time, giving me plenty of time in the morning to take your pet on a walk, play outside, or just keep them company. Of course, when I’m off in the summer, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets! I am open to the safety, trust, and environment guidelines set by each pet owner. As the owner of a needy dog, I understand that each family has different preferences for keeping their home and pets safe!
“I can’t say enough good things about Mariia! She took great care of my dog, Hazel. It’s clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes the time to understand each one’s personality. I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Hazel was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I got back. Highly recommend!”

“I booked with Debbra for my mom and we were so happy with how considerate she was. My mom ended up having phone issues, took a wrong turn, and was hours late to picking up her dog. Debbra was so flexible and understanding, it took a load off my mom who was already at peak stress. We couldn’t recommend Debbra enough!”

“Aspen is the best! She took great care of our dog Ollie and sent regular updates. Ollie immediately felt comfortable with her! Would highly recommend booking with Aspen”

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and started watching dogs for family and friends while in college and couldn't have my own. I've enjoyed watching pets for my loved ones and now that I am in a house and working remotely I want to be able to provide my pet care experience to more fur babies. While the majority of my experience is with dogs I've also taken care of cats, fish, anoles, bearded dragons, rabbits, chinchillas, and hedgehogs. I'm open to caring for all sorts of animals and I'm able to be flexible with your needs. I work outside the house part time so when pets are with me they are my first priority and I only accept pets when I know I have enough time to give them all the attention they need. I have caged animals that I let out when I can supervise them so they house is animal proofed and anything potentially harmful is locked away. I have baby gates that can be put up to keep puppies/ elderly dogs from falling down the stairs. My back yard is enclosed on 3 sides by fencing and would be watched and leashed at all times when outside.
“Our pups had a great time! Carla accepted our booking the day of after we had another one cancel. She kept us up to date with photos & videos. Would definitely book with her again if we return to Cleveland”

“We'd highly recommend Angie as a sitter! Our dog has pretty bad separation anxiety, and Angie made sure she felt comfortable while in her care. She's very attentive and provides lots of updates and pictures!”

“Kyle was absolutely wonderful! He helped me and my family out in a pinch!! He treated our dogs like his own and was an amazing communicator! He went out of his way to pick up our girls and sent many pictures. Highly recommend and we will use him again! 😊”

“Joe was great with communication, quick to respond, and treated my dog like his own during walks! He was accommodating to some of my dogs health challenges and limitations and willing to change up the normal routine to suit my dogs needs. Great experience!”


“Makenna was tasked with walking my very energetic, young, German Shepherd. She did not disappoint! My dog seemed to love walking with her, and Makenna has been very respectful, patient, and loving to my dog even though they just met! Makenna follows instructions to a T, is very thorough with providing me with updates, and has the utmost respect to your property and your pet! If Makenna can handle the energy of my dog, and provide it with good mid day safe exercise, she can do it for any dog. I would highly recommend Makenna for anyone’s pet care needs!”

“Otter loves his walks so much that he’s started napping on the entryway stairs and races to the door before Olesja has even entered the code 😅 Another great week of adventures, love, and learning!”
