“I know my Marvel will be treated like family by Juliann, receiving lots of love, attention and stimulation. Knowing he’s being well-cared for allows me to relax when I have to be away. That peace of mind is priceless!”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Kelsi! Will definitely book again next time we need a sitter. She took amazing care of my dogs and communication was great. We got fun little updates and pictures everyday. Thank you!!”


“Liz was great with our dog while we were away and had great communication with us to put us at ease. She really took the time to assure us after we explained some of our dog's needs. She kept us updated and has lots of experience. We're very happy with her services and Pippin had a great time with her personal dogs and other boarders. Definitely recommend and rest assured she will look after your pet as well as she did ours. Thank you!”

“Kevin and Atalaya were very accommodating to our last minute booking in addition to having to extend our stay by a couple hours. Rosie was very loved and cared for. Thanks again!”

“Stephen watched our dog, Oliver, for us over a long weekend. He and his wife, Connie, were great and Ollie was very happy with them. He was definitely spoiled! We received several photos from Stephen while we were away, which is always nice to see. It was so reassuring to know that he was so well taken care of. We have already booked Stephen and Connie again for our next, longer trip!”


“Thank you for pampering Lulu while we were out of town. She obviously received excellent care and lots of love. We hope to have her stay with you again in the future. Tim T.”

“I could not have asked for a better family to watch my dog! Samantha and Brian were so kind and accommodating with my older dog! My dog had some issues initially acclimating to the new environment and they went above and beyond to make him feel at home. To the extent that Brian slept in the living room with him, where my dog felt most comfortable. Their children and their pup were wonderful with him as well! The family even accommodated me picking my dog up a night early since our holiday plans changed. This family really was a blessing when we needed to leave our dog for the holidays! Thank you again!!”

“Barbara is a really warm person who my dog took a shine to right away. I was very comfortable leaving my little buddy with her and it sounds like they had a great time 🙂”

“Nadine was great! We were coming from out of town and headed to the beach but visited family for a couple days who doesn’t like dogs in the house, so we needed to find a place for our dog for a couple days. Nadine sent pictures everyday to let us know how Milly is doing. She has an amazing backyard and her pets were very friendly with her. Milly isn’t crate trained and Nadine was more than willing to accommodate that and let her sleep in the bed. Will definitely use her again when we come to town!”

“I felt very confident leaving Mowgli in Julie's care. She was communicative (via pictures and updates), kind and clearly knowledgable about dogs. Mowgli has a few things going on with his health and I appreciated knowing that he was in good hands. Thanks again!”

“Nancy was absolutely amazing! This was our first time leaving our girl with anyone so we were very nervous on how it would go! Nancy was so reassuring that Paisley would do well. She sent us pictures to keep us updated on how she was doing. Paisley came home one happy girl! We are so thankful to have found Nancy and highly recommend her!! We will definitely use her in the future!”

“So happy to have come across Jennifer and Eric before boarding our pup. Seeing photos of him snuggling their kids and knowing he was being loved on all week gave us so much peace of mind while we were on vacation. Thank you guys so much!”


“Jean did a great job. She has a great yard for the dogs to run in. She was great with my dogs separation anxiety and didn't leave them alone. She also helped my anxiety with texts And photos. I'm so glad I found her. ”
“Our girl, Maizie, is usually standoffish to strangers and only accepts a few as friends. Suzanne is one of her best buddies. Suzanne is loving but expects her "clients" to behave courteously to others and commands respect and obedience from all dogs present. She provides a welcoming, stimulating, and socially safe place for all. We leave Maizie knowing she will have a good time and will be well cared for.”

“I cannot thank Katie and her family enough for their excellent care of our labradoodle Olive while we were out of town for a week. Katie met Olive before the trip, sincerely inquiring about her likes and dislikes. She was on time to pick up Olive and cared about transporting her safely. During the stay Katie sent me pictures and daily communication about Olive's time at her house. All I can say is that Olive was treated like a Queen. She had daily exercise, was well fed (with the food we provided) and most importantly given lots of love. I know Olive would gladly go back to stay with Katie and her family the next time we travel. Thank you Katie!”

“Shelly was an amazing pet sitter. Our dog, Berta, had never spent time away from us before. Thanks to Shelly, though, Berta felt right at home and was happy to stay with her. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“We feel incredibly lucky to have found Shari on Rover. This was our first time vacationing and leaving our special-needs dog, who has separation anxiety, and it was not an easy decision. From the very beginning, Shari made us feel completely at ease. She truly loved him and treated him as if he were her own. Knowing he was in such caring, capable hands gave us the confidence to fully enjoy our time away. Shari sent frequent updates and photos, which meant so much to us and really helped when we missed him. I couldn’t recommend Shari more highly. She is kind, attentive, and truly exceptional. We are so grateful for the care she provided and would absolutely trust her again.”

“I’ve worked with Sarah for a while now, she does drop ins to care for my three kitties. She’s been a lifesaver: reliable, thorough, detail oriented and my kitties love her! So grateful to have found her!”


“Kat was incredibly diligent and professional with our 4 kitties, including one senior cat with special needs! She went above and beyond while we were out of town for the week to administer medication on a schedule, deal with different feeding instructions, and take care of the house. We got such great updates and pictures throughout our trip, and Kat really put our mind at ease! I would absolutely rely on her again.”


“Kate was wonderful!! She was very communicative, super kind, and Millie loved her drop in visit! Kate was also super accommodating moving the check in time as our plans changed sort of last minute and we are so thankful for knowing our pup was in great hands!!”

“Shelly has been taking care of my 6 month old lab pup for a few weeks now. She has an excellent facility, including some air conditioned stalls for resting during hot summer days. She does a superb job caring for my pup and even helps with some of her behavioral training. I greatly appreciate her efforts and the helpful advice she’s given. I highly recommend Shelly if you’re looking for someone to care for your 4-legged family member.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsi! From day one, it was clear how genuinely caring, patient, and attentive she is with my puppy Lucy. She treats her like her own, making sure she’s safe, happy, well-exercised, and loved. I always receive great updates and photos, which gives me total peace of mind knowing Lucy is in such good hands. Her reliability, communication, and obvious love for dogs truly sets her apart. I am so grateful to have found someone I trust completely and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dog—especially puppies!”

About: My wife, Connie, a retired nurse, and I have had six dogs over 35 years. We miss them dearly. I have raised dogs from puppyhood through their senior years so I understand the patience, structure and affection that go with it. I am retired from my legal practice of 35 years, and very active.

In my home I will provide a warm, clean environment, plenty of attention and lots of outdoor activity since I’m active and retired, with plenty of time to give. Your pup will also be the only one I care for during his/her stay…

About: Although I'm new to Rover I have been dog sitting for years, now that I'm retired and have too much free time on my hands I decided to bump it up a notch. I love dogs and my papillon is getting up there in age and lost her sister and this is a great way to give her company and a buddy. I am retired and home more than away. Weather permitting I spend most of my time enjoying the outdoors playing and working in my yard. I have two beautiful landscaped fully fenced acres, lots of room for your fur babies to run and play. My home is well set up for extra paws. I have one senior papillon who could use a buddy.

“Alexis and Jacob watched Baja for the first time and it was a total success! Baja is very sweet but can be a handful and so we were pretty picky about who could take the reins after her last sitter moved. Based on the friendliness, competence, reliability, and great communication we experienced with Alexis and Jacob, we’re thrilled to have a new loving and safe place for Baja to stay when we’re gone.”

“Hannah was great. She was very flexible and punctual and cared for our pup well. It was nice knowing our dog got to enjoy farm life. She even washed him when he got muddy. Very kind.”


“Damon is a wonderful sitter and handled my two dogs with such great care! They had a great time and came thoroughly exhausted and happy. We got videos and photos throughout the day which was awesome. Your dog will be super cared for and in great hands with Damon! I highly recommend him.”

“Kris is always knowledgeable flexible and personable. He has a great love for dogs and it shows his daughter and he even play piano for the dogs..My babies are always well taken care of and I have no worries that they are always in good hands. Thank you Kris! Youre the best”


“With lots of young children attending, our relatives hosting the Christmas Day gathering asked that no guests bring their pets. Rather than leave our little guy by himself for that many hours, we turned to Rover - and Julie came to our rescue! We had done a meet-and-greet previously, so I felt that Django and Aspen would spend most of their time playing and chasing each other, and by all reports that's what they did. I must thank Julie again for taking care of my pup, and on Christmas to boot! I would not hesitate to recommend Julie as a dog-sitter.”

“Anastasiya and her family have been caring for our energetic 10-month old aussiedoodle Tony each week for a couple of months now & I am so grateful that we found her! We are always greeted warmly, and he expresses excitement and interest for his visits.

“Stephen was absolutely amazing with Cosmo! From the moment they headed out, it was clear he was patient, attentive, and really understood Cosmo’s personality. He handled him confidently on the walk, kept him engaged, and made sure he was safe and happy the entire time. Cosmo came back relaxed and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciate Stephen’s professionalism and kindness he went above and beyond, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, fantastic dog walker.”

“Liz was great with our dog while we were away and had great communication with us to put us at ease. She really took the time to assure us after we explained some of our dog's needs. She kept us updated and has lots of experience. We're very happy with her services and Pippin had a great time with her personal dogs and other boarders. Definitely recommend and rest assured she will look after your pet as well as she did ours. Thank you!”

We received several photos from Stephen while we were away, which is always nice to see. It was so reassuring to know that he was so well taken care of. We have already booked Stephen and Connie again for our next, longer trip!”

“Jean did a great job. She has a great yard for the dogs to run in. She was great with my dogs separation anxiety and didn't leave them alone. She also helped my anxiety with texts And photos. I'm so glad I found her. ”
“I cannot thank Katie and her family enough for their excellent care of our labradoodle Olive while we were out of town for a week. Katie met Olive before the trip, sincerely inquiring about her likes and dislikes. She was on time to pick up Olive and cared about transporting her safely. During the stay Katie sent me pictures and daily communication about Olive's time at her house. All I can say is that Olive was treated like a Queen. She had daily exercise, was well fed (with the food we provided) and most importantly given lots of love. I know Olive would gladly go back to stay with Katie and her family the next time we travel. Thank you Katie!”

“Shelly was an amazing pet sitter. Our dog, Berta, had never spent time away from us before. Thanks to Shelly, though, Berta felt right at home and was happy to stay with her. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Chloe provided a safe a friendly home away from home for our girls. She was a great communicator and our dogs were happy in her home. I would definitely trust her with my dogs again!”

“Lyssette kept me updated with pictures and video my whole trip. We used her our first time using rover and she did a wonderful job and my dog was very happy when she got home. We used to take my dog to boarding places but after it made her super sick last time we decided to try out rover and I’m glad we did because it was a very good experience.”

“Bonnie was wonderful. Out dog has had little socialization and Bonnie worked with her to make her as comfortable as possible. It took extra work to keep her. It meant so much to us because we were without power.”

“Our plans changed suddenly due to a medical emergency, and she was very accomodating with pickup/dropoff as a result. The yard & house were spacious and lovely, and she kept our puppy feeling safe and loved.”


“Tara was so great with our dogs and really helped us enjoy our trip to Dayton without having to worry about the dogs. They had a great puppy party and came back tired and fully content with their stay! Definitely will be reaching out again for our next trips to Dayton!”

“What an amazing individual and her little doggie, Zoe. Marybeth is super casual, interested, caring, and flexible. She understands pets and their importance. I loved her tree-lined neighborhood and the HUGE fenced backyard available for my little pupper to play. I've decided Marybeth's the one to trust with my little pup, Mia.”

“We were very concerned about leaving our 8 year old fur baby with someone we didn’t know and we couldn’t have been more happy with Kristopher and his wife. They are a sweet couple and obviously love animals. We were thrilled to receive daily photos of a happy puppy. We highly recommend Kristopher and will be using him again when we next need a sitter!”


“Ron will be our go-to guy as long as he is willing to take our dog! Our dog is always so anxious before and after we leave. He was excited to run into Ron’s home and has been so relaxed ever since we picked him up.”


“From the moment my two dogs met Peter they loved him. He is so good with doggies! The pictures he sent me showed just how happy they were with his family. They were given lots of time, affection, and fun, as well as special attention and grooming. They were with him because I was in the hospital for a medical procedure that went longer then expected. For me Peter's flexibility with my situation and the confidence he inspired made leaving my doggies in his hands in an already stressful time for me a peaceful decision. I would clearly recommend him!”

“Perla had a great time with lots of play! Elizabeth has a nice big home with lots of room to run around both inside and out. Her dog Lilo and Perla got along really well. We'll definitely be a repeat customer.”
