“Supon is our most trusted dog sitter. Supon has been watching dog Teddy (Yorkie-8 years) since 2018. He is very attentive to our dog Teddy & sends us updates and pictures throughout the day. Teddy loves going to Uncle Supons house for a vacation while Mom & Dad are away! Thanks again for another wonderful stay, Supon.”
“Michelle took great care of Joey while I was away in August. She sent me regular updates of their adventures together, and I could tell Joey was having a blast. It eased my mind to leave my dog in responsible hands, and I definitely would book Michelle again!”
“Lauren was the best! She sent us so many photos and updates of our dog, Webster while we were away. And Webster and Friday seemed to get along great!! Definitely will rebook with her in the future ?”
“Tater had a great little staycation with Michelle while we were out of town. We got so many photos of him just having an absolute blast. Their dog Murphy welcomed Tater to toys and cuddles. We were able to enjoy our trip without having to worry about if Tater was okay or enjoying himself. Thank you so much!”
“We are so lucky we found Virginia! She was flexible and so sweet with our dog, Patches. He became best buds with her dog Sofia, which put our minds at ease while we were away. Looking forward to the next time we go away so Patches can hang out with his new friends again!”
“Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.”
“We all had such a good experience with Erin! Great communication, loved the pictures and Sherman had such a good time on their walks and outings. Highly recommend. Thank you so much, Erin!”
“Our Labrador, Gypsy, loves spending time with Emma. Emma shared daily pictures and updates of Gypsy daily while we were traveling out of the country for a week. Emma is super responsive and easy to work with. This was Gypsy’s second visit with Emma and we highly recommend her!”
“Ewelina was fantastic, yet again! We've counted on Ewelina numerous times over the past year and can't recommend her highly enough. Our dog loves her to no end!”
“Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.”
“Amazing experience - Blue had such a good time and I can tell was so happy! We got pictures along the way as well. I knew he was in good hands. Thank you so much Sarachai!”
“Harley was so happy to go back to Jennifer and her wonderful family for a long weekend. He gets showered with love by Jennifer, her sweet daughter Ramsey, and Grandmom Anne! I’m so happy he gets a happy easy-going doggy friend in Khali, and experience with Pursey the cat. It’s so nice knowing that he is so beautifully cared for. Jennifer was extra kind this time, giving him medicine and more walks since he couldn’t run around her spacious front yard due to a healing injury. We love getting updates and adorable pictures throughout his time there. I’m not sure Harley really wanted to leave!”
“Brian has become a trusted and dependable for this single, working dog mom of 2! He is a great communicator and has been incredibly patient and flexible with me when there are travel delays outside of my control. My boys get so excited when we pull up to his house and always return home tired (in a good way!) and happy.”
“Gabriela was amazing! She sent updates and took Dundee on so many adventures! & When we needed her to watch Dundee for longer due to traffic, she didn’t mind at all. She’s the best!”
“This was our first experience with Rover. Jack was great!! I felt our dog was in good hands the whole time and Jack sent frequent updates and even a video of him learning a new trick which was much appreciated. Would highly recommend Jack!”
“Fantastic sitter! We were so nervous leaving our 13-week old puppy for a weekend, but Charles made it as easy as possible. He kept to our routine and sent us pictures and updates throughout each day. We absolutely recommend Charles.”
“As always, Katie was amazing! We had some trouble with our flights and ended up coming home later than expected and Katie was right there to help. Our dog came home happy and healthy. Highly recommend!”
“Sabrina was an incredible sitter for my pup, Leia! She was so caring, kind, and attentive to Leia’s needs. Leia typically takes some time to warm up in a new place given her separation anxiety, but Sabrina was able to make her feel right at home almost instantly. When Leia got anxious from noises outside, Sabrina even played calming music to help her relax. Her communication was fantastic, she kept me in the loop constantly and sent tons of photos. With the extreme heat and poor air quality during Leia’s stay, Sabrina made sure Leia’s safety was her top priority. Even over a longer 5 day stay, I had complete peace of mind knowing Leia was being looked after like she was her own. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book Sabrina again in a heartbeat!”
“From the meet and greet to drop-off, Amy was so great. She’s super kind and communicative and I loved the updates. I felt very safe and comfortable leaving my pup and will definitely be booking again :)”

“Tasneem was the perfect sitter! Since we hadn’t met before, we did a meet and greet before the stay, which was an extra step I really appreciated. She was very communicative setting up the meeting, and when I sent care instructions shortly before my stay. Each time she checked on my cat Klaus, Tasneem wrote a nice report and took tons of pictures. I could tell from all the updates that Klaus warmed up to her quickly, and that she was taking great care of him. I was able to relax on my week-long trip knowing she’d be there consistently! I would absolutely book with Tasneem again, and I’d strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, dependable sitter!”
“Erin was very reliable and communicative, and was able to get my senior cat to take his meds (hooray) and patient with my younger cat who is very very shy. Would absolutely use her again.”
“I’ve booked with Lauren several times now, and continue to do so for a reason. She is very flexible with her availability and super compassionate with my cats and her care of them. I always get tons of pictures and feedback from each one of her visits. Lauren is the best and I trust her completely with the care of my fur babies when I’m not around. 10/10 you should absolutely book her for anything you need! Thank you!!!”
“Hana was a great sitter for our first time using Rover. She provided frequent check ins and communicated well with any questions or concerns. We would definitely book again!”
“Tara did an amazing job watching over our Saki while we were gone. This is the second time we have worked with Tara and hope to book her again in the future. I truly felt at easy knowing that she was checking in on our cat.”
“I was nervous about leaving my cat alone for the first time, but Julia made the whole process easy! She was incredibly professional and communicative, always responding quickly. After meeting her, I wholeheartedly trusted her to take care of my cat and knew we would be in good hands.”
“Becca has consistently been an amazing pet sitter! I can always count on her to make sure my cat is OK while I’m away and her photos and report cards are always so detailed and the best!”
“My kitties were in good hands! I really appreciated the care and attention she gave them, and the pictures were adorable. It's nice being able to trust someone in your home.”
“We could not be happier with Anne! Between the quick and professional responses when we first contacted her, to Anne quickly taking care of an issue we created while we were rushing to catch a flight! (We forgot to leave food for our kitty, and needed Anne to start a day earlier than scheduled. No problem!). Communication was prompt and perfect, even over a holiday. We recommend Anne without reservation and we look forward to having her look after our pets in the future ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐😸”
“Simone was absolutely amazing with my cat! She was so patient and he warmed right up to her! She clearly and regularly communicated and was adaptable to change requests. She always made sure to upload tons of amazing pictures too!”
“Dewan is fantastic!! Would absolutely trust him with my two cats again. Very communicative, attentive, and flexible. We even had a bit of an “emergency” late at night and he was immediately able to help. Highly recommend!”
“Hannah did such a great job with our kitten while we were out of town! Sent lots of pictures and updates that definitely helped our peace of mind leaving our girl for the first time! 😺”
“Maria was great with Zane, and gave us updates that left us feeling relieved and relaxed. We love that Zane got along with her kitty Yoda! A great experience and I recommend anyone who is exploring options to board with Maria!”
“Kaitlyn is the BEST! I would’ve been lost without her care and support this summer for our cat, Rosie. Kaitlyn was reliable, communicative, friendly, and so knowledgeable about cats (I’m a newbie cat owner.) Thank you Kaitlyn for coming by everyday to take care of Rosie… we’ll miss you! Can’t wait to use your help again soon 💜”
“Ethan was awesome! He took such great care of our cat and provided great updates during our trip. He’s super friendly, and our cat seemed to love him! Would definitely book again.”
“Emily was a great cat sitter for our two cats! She provided pictures and updates for each trip and even let us know of an irregularity with the cats behavior. The cats seemed more than happy with their time with Emily, and we would recommend her to anyone!”
“Shannon was incredibly communicative and kind. We were navigating a very skittish cat and she was incredibly compassionate and understanding. I would recommend her to any family.”
“This was my second booking with Iryna. When I came back from my previous trip, I noticed my cat was a lot calmer and loving than coming back from trips with other sitters, so there was no doubt about using her services again. She has great communication and documents everything really well. I got daily pictures and video’s of Iryna playing with and caring for Yuki. She was also flexible to come back to us, with a last minute booking, both in location and time. I would absolutely use her services again and I absolutely recommend her for any other cat parents :) thanks Iryna for being there !”

“Supon is the best sitter my dog has had the to stay with! Supon LOVES his doggie clients and my Shih Tzu loves to stay with him. I trust Supon completely, sends great pictures and treats his guests like his own dogs. You couldn't find a better sitter.”
“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“I cannot recommend Scarlett enough. My pup has the BEST time with her and Lassie. His tail is always wagging when he comes see her for his regular daycare. Scarlett’s communication is excellent and I really love all the pictures and video updates she sends throughout the day. She makes sure your pup has a great balance of walks, enrichment, and rest throughout the day. I can see how she really takes the care to love your pup like her own. I couldn’t be happier, thank you Scarlett!!”

About: I have experience taking care of dogs of all different kinds from a young age! I have a strong love and appreciation for all dogs and their unconditional love. I was an elementary school teacher for 8 years so patience, organization and an intense sense of care are my strongest skills. I am currently in the process of finding a new remote job and am home during the week and most weekends! I love to walk and having a buddy to come with me would make my day. My hours and days are pretty flexible ♥️ I live in an apartment with plenty of outside space around the building to take any pups outside to play with. I don’t have any pets at home so your pet will have my full undivided attention 🤍
“Corina was great! Really responsive and great to work with. She took great care of our dog Nina. Sent us updates and pictures throughout the day. She took Nina out on several walks during the day and even worked on training her new tricks. My dog just loved her and I can tell she was well taken care of.”
“Outstanding care for Zeke. Amanda was great. Very nice person, patient, very easy to work with and to schedule sitting times. I highly recommend. If visiting DC she is located very close to everything you would want to see. No going out of way to drop your pet.”
“Watson enjoyed his day with Alainie and her two pups. She is a very responsive and flexible host that accommodated a few last minute changes for our recent booking. We're looking forward to booking with her again!”
About: I had two dogs growing up (Snowball and Mocha) and in recent years, have dog sat for friends, friends, and for Rover clients. It's rewarding and super fun for me! I enjoy the long walks in my neighborhood (I live in an awesome neighborhood for that) and lots of cuddles/belly rubs with the dogs I am sitting! I work from home most of the week and have plenty of time during the day for neighborhood strolls/walks with my rover pups. I love going for walks to take a break so would take the dog out at least 3 or 4 times a day with me. My husband and I live in a 2 bedroom/2 floor condo with a balcony. The dog would have access to the first floor. We have hard wood floors, a ton of really great light and are on the 3rd floor. There are no elevators in this building. We have a ton of neighbors who have dogs, an elementary school near by with a nice track/green space, and lots of side walk space for walks.
“Juliet was very accommodating to my work schedule. She kept me informed with pictures and how Remi was doing throughout the day. She is caring, kind and sweet and will make sure your pup is taken great care of.”
“We met Linda, Leo and Fred and instantly felt at ease! She was so warm, kind and genuine. Leo and Fred were both welcoming and friendly towards Pinot. They played so well and Pinot was well taken care of. Thank you!!!”
“A+ thank you so much! My dog had a great time and Lee was awesome! She sent me a picture of my girl as well as fed and walked her. She was also super accommodating when my plans got delayed and I had to arrive late. Thanks again!!”
“Thank you so much again for watching my baby 🐶. I will definitely book him again. My baby was very tired, which was a good thing. She got home and ate and went right to sleep.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was very young, and caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I currently have a pug, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like walking, feeding, bathing, and giving lots of love and attention. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to look after their pets, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m currently in my last semester of nursing school! My classes are online, and I only have one in-person clinical day per week, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available for doggy daycare, boarding, and walks throughout the week and can usually accommodate different drop-off, pick-up, and walk times. 🐾 Safety is always my top priority. I grew up with dogs and currently have a sweet pug, so I’m very comfortable handling pets of all sizes and personalities. My home is clean, calm, and pet-friendly, and I always make sure dogs are supervised, fed on schedule, and kept in a safe environment. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed, follow any routines you prefer, and give your pup plenty of love and attention while you’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 15 years old. Lots of experience with playing, feeding, walking, and bathing pets if necessary. Comfortable working with pups and kitties of all ages and sizes. I work from home full time so can step out during the day and work around any scheduled meetings I have. Happy to check in multiple times a day or whenever preferred. I can drive to your home to accommodate you and your pets schedule. Also happy to send pictures, updates and spend however long preferred with your furry friend.

“I’ve been meaning to leave Dominick a review for some time and my apologies for not earlier. I’ve been using Dominick regularly for the last 8 months. My dog is always happy to see him and when I get home I know he’s had a good walk. I trust Dominick entering and exiting my house without me being there. I know based on my notifications that Dominick is always on time and he communicates very well. If I have any specific instructions whether it is to leave my dog in his crate or to give him a treat before he leaves, I know it’s been done. Typically I use Dominick’s service when I have a busy work day or traveling and he’s a tremendous help in giving my dog (a 15 month old very energetic husky) some exercise. I recommend Dominick 100 percent.”
