“We are so happy to have found Byamba and his family to board our dog, Rex. He was super responsive when booking, even though it was only a week before our trip. When I dropped Rex off, I could tell that Byamba was an experienced dog watcher. He was amazing with sending updates and pictures, so we felt super confident that Rex was well cared for. Highly recommend, and will definitely be using him again for future travel.”
“Jason and Becky were absolutely amazing with Teddie! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. They sent so many pictures and regular updates throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun he was having. Teddie had the best time going to the dog park, playing with their two wonderful dogs, and getting lots of love and attention. It was clear they treated him like one of their own, and he came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We are so grateful for the incredible care they gave him and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. We highly recommend Jason and Becky to anyone looking for caring, reliable sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our boy! 🐾”
“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”
“We had a great experience with Youyou! She took wonderful care of my dog and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout his stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. My dog seemed happy and comfortable, and we truly appreciate all the love and attention she gave him. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to other pet parents🩵”
“Andy looked after my dog while I was on a work trip, and I couldn’t have been more at ease. He kept me updated, and my dog was clearly happy and well cared for. She was even reluctant to leave and wanted to say goodbye to him. Highly recommend!”
“Kerstyn was wonderful throughout the entire boarding process. She was so professional and responded to all of my texts promptly. My pup unfortunately was feeling a bit unwell during her stay, but Kerstyn was a pro at both managing my dog’s needs and putting me at ease. I would absolutely recommend booking with Kerstyn!”
“Sush and her family were extremely accommodating and able to watch London overnight with only 2 days' notice, which we were super appreciative of. It's clear that London was well taken care of... thank you Sush!”
“Faustine was an amazing dog sitter and was super sweet, flexible with great communication skills. We super appreciate Faustine and we would 100% use her again!!!”
“Don’t know how to say this in short, Erin is fantastic and took care of my handful beagle like her own. I was worry free during my absence thanks to her caring and lovely attitude. Erin , we will definitely see you soon. ?”
“Christine is great! She gave us regular updates and sent pictures/videos. Dobby came home very happy and we will definitely go to her again in the future!”
“Ollie has the best time with Donna and always comes back so happily tired! And we love all the adorable updates she sends. Ollie is excited to head back to Donna’s next week for more fun!!”
“Elizabeth is a dog whisperer! Caring for a senior dog requires patience, knowledge, and genuine compassion—and that’s exactly what we found in Elizabeth. Our senior dog requires a slower pace, and a lot of gentle reassurance. Every detail was handled thoughtfully, from maintaining her routine to making sure she was comfortable and relaxed. We received regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Elizabeth is a godsend!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Leo! John was absolutely amazing — from the very start he was super responsive and so kind. Leo can be picky about rain, lazy when it’s hot, and a little particular about his eating (clean dish every time!), but John handled everything so wonderfully. He made sure Leo got his walks (adjusting for weather!), gave him all the love, and kept us constantly updated with sweet photos and notes that really gave us peace of mind while we traveled. Coming home to such a happy and relaxed pup says it all. Truly grateful for the care, attention, and thoughtfulness John showed. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to love their pup like family!”
“Laurie and Richard were amazing with my older little pup with anxiety. She loved her stay with them and they catered to her needs so well. The communication and updates were wonderful!”
“Fantastic! Stayed in touch about Pippin while we were gone (and was tolerant of his health quirks!) and was very flexible in planning our drop-off/pick ups. We came back to a healthy, happy, dog and never once worried about him.”
“Musa has been great with our kitty, Cheeto. Musa has looked after our kitty multiple times now. It takes a little time for our kitty to get used to a new environment, but Musa and his wife are very patient. Going to Musa's is like a mini vacation for Cheeto, now.”
“Kevin was an excellent dog sitter for our golden retriever! He sent several pictures daily and was very accommodating with our pick up time/drop off. Will definitely use Kevin&family again!”
“Jennifer was so kind and attentive to my pup! I could tell my dog instantly warmed up to her and her dog and felt super comfortable there. She was great with communication and sent many adorable photos.”

“Barb, The Relief Every Pet Owner Needs Over the years, I grew increasingly scared to leave my 3 cats in a stranger's care. If needed I always drove them to my parents but it became clear that the roadtrip stressed them out more than if I had just left them at home and had a stranger come by the house. As a 1st time Rover user, Barb was a perfect find! She made the whole process unbelievably breezy. She very punctual to the meet and greet she set up the same day I sent my request. I ran her through the cat's litter and feeding schedule and already felt good about her. Immediately after this meet and greet, she sent me a screenshot of the notes she took afterwards which were notes on the food/water/litter instructions we had discussed for the brief meet. This really sealed it for me; not only did Barb exhibit great memory recall but also great attention to detail which is certainly needed in pet care. I had Barb check in twice a day for my 3 cats for a total of 9 days. She is very punctual to the times discussed and an expert with sending photos of furry loved ones to ease anxieties. She also made sure I was made aware of any event that occurred immediately in the Rover Card for that very check-in time. When responding to her or asking her questions she was quick and attentive with her responses. One of my cats loves to escape and is a bit of a "queen of the house" type of cat so she gets a bit protective of "her home" and after giving Barb some tips and tricks in what we do, my cat became calmer and more accepting of Barb as more check-ins occurred. They grew closer towards the end which is a testament of Barb's personality and care qualities. My other 2 cats are shy ones so there was a worry that we wouldn't be able to confirm if they were eating or not. But eventually Barb's calm and gentle presence coaxed them out enough to be spotted for a food grab or a hydration stop every now and then. Overall, having Barb as a first time Rover sitter and first time pet sitter was a perfect match and I feel lucky to have had her watching over my pets.”
“Thanks so much for visiting Pepper! I can tell she loved hanging out with you. I really loved the photos and it was very reassuring knowing she was well cared for while I was way.”
About: I have cat sitting experience including kittens and a senior cat (15 years old). For the kittens, I had to administer oral antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection. I am no stranger to cleaning litter boxes and also safely handling cats if they do need to be picked up.
“Our cat is super shy and tends to hide or leave the house when visitors come. Kayly must be a soft walker/talker because she was able take two photos of him with eyes open,but chill. Those photos really improved my level of chill as well”
“Victoria was amazing! I needed someone last minute for drop-in visits with my cat during a work trip, and she was incredibly accommodating and responsive from the start. She made the whole process so much less stressful and took great care of my cat while I was away. I really appreciated the updates, reliability, and genuine care she showed. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
“Tricia is wonderful!! She took great care of our cats, and I'm pretty sure the house was cleaner when we returned than when we left it! She was very responsive and sent pictures and updates for every visit. We highly recommend her and will request her again!”
“Amanda is the most caring, thoughtful and communicative sitter I”ve had the pleasure of meeting. She goes above and beyond to ensure that Aleta is happy and content. I love receiving her daily updates and the cute photos. Your pet will be in excellent hands with this amazing sitter!”
“Sai stayed in our home and cat-sat our attention-addicted cat for 12 days. During this time, he gave our girl a lot of love, made sure she had all her needs met, and was responsive to any messages we sent him. Sai is trustworthy and professional. We would absolutely ask him to cat-sit for us again!”
“Aislyn was great! She updated us regularly and sent us pictures to let us know how our boys were doing. It is clear that she is an animal lover and both of our boys were well cared for while we were away.”
“Jessi did an amazing job watching our cat for an extended trip. She checked in often and left the house clean and cared for. She even cleaned up a very big mess our cat left and gave us constant updates. I felt very comfortable leaving our cat with Jessi and won’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
“Christina was excellent as always! Took great care of our cats with regular updates. She even drove back after her visit to save a package from the rain. We're moving out of state, and our next sitter will have some _big_ shoes to fill.”
“Teodora is absolutely the best! She really took great care of our cats while we were away and I had a wonderful vacation knowing that she was taking care of them. She also visited with our mother and listened to her stories, which speaks volumes about a person's character. Teodora loves animals and some of my feral cats let her get close to them. That also says a lot about a person when a feral cat lets them in! She is a hard worker and my mother enjoyed all the conversations they had when she came to take care of them. There is nothing Teodora will not do for your beloved pets. I highly recommend her because she is the best and will hire her whenever I need someone caring and loving to take care of my babies! We all, cats included, just adore Teodora! We are so lucky and blessed to have found her!”
About: I first gained experience caring for cats while I was an au pair from 2016–2018. I helped my host family care for their cat by feeding, playing, cleaning the litter box, and giving insulin injections when needed. Since joining Rover, I’ve cared for cats in multiple households, with many repeat visits ranging from single drop-ins to over 10 visits for the same family. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer medication or insulin if needed, and make sure each cat receives plenty of attention, playtime, and loving care while their owners are away.

“Loreen was really patient with Milo, who is a bit skittish around strangers. She took the time to get him acquainted with her house, yards and kids. She and the kids genuinely love Milo and she sent great pictures of his stay at her house. I’ll definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life. I got my first dog when I was 6 and cared for her until I moved abroad at 17. I also adopted a cat at 15 and have been responsible for her daily care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I am generally available on weekdays and weekends with flexible hours. Monday–Friday: 3:30 PM – 7:00 PM Weekends: Available all day (morning, afternoon, and evening) I am able to adjust my schedule with advance notice when needed and can accommodate regular or recurring walks as well as occasional bookings. I am especially flexible on weekends and during school breaks. I always prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and make sure pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations. I provide a calm, clean, and caring environment, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved.
“We booked Grace for a very last-minute daycare session, and we couldn’t be more grateful that we found her. Our dog Miso is quite sensitive and anxious, so we’re always cautious about new caregivers—but she seemed incredibly comfortable with Grace right away. She has such a calming, kind energy, and it was no surprise to hear that Miso adjusted so well and felt at ease in her care. Knowing she was safe, relaxed, and well looked after gave us so much peace of mind. We’re truly grateful for Grace’s care and would highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with dogs who need a gentle and patient sitter. 🐾💛”
“Did an awesome job with my young energetic puppy! And was very communicative about timing with pickup due to some family responsibilities. I really appreciated her communication and updates”
“Jason and Becky are truly two of the most patient pet sitters I’ve ever worked with. Communication was always prompt and clear, and they took such great care of my two dogs—everything felt so easy and reassuring. They also sent me lots of photo updates, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely book with Jason again and highly recommend them!”
“Rio loved spending the day with Jose Luis! I received regular text and picture updates, and Jose Luis was always quick to respond to messages. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have lovingly taken care of dogs & cats for over 30 years, both mine & those belonging to friends, family & neighbors. From an early age I learned that all animals need love and compassion, and this taught me to always responsibly care for our family & friends' pets. Since then my passion for animals has taken me on a career path as a global wildlife & nature conservationist & photographer. Any chance I get to walk, visit, play with, and care for a pet brings me immense joy. I know how hard it is to leave your pet for a trip or even just for the day to go to work, my commitment to you is that your pet will receive tons of attention, affection and exercise and you can feel 100% at ease. I am available day/evenings during the week and flexible throughout the day/night on weekends. I will make every effort to fit your schedule. I currently work from home, giving me plenty of time and a broad range of flexibility to visit, walk, and care for your pets. Hopefully your pooch can help me get some of my daily 13,000 steps in! I like to send daily updates and photos giving you peace of mind that your kitty or pooch are happy and taken care of, eliminating any worries you may have regarding your pet during your time away. I'm excited about the chance to meet you and your fur baby! When I visit your pet, I hold myself to the highest standard from the moment I enter your home and greet your pet, as if it was my own home and my own pet. I will strive to leave your home in the same, or better, condition than it was at the beginning of my visit or stay. Once I've followed all instructions provided by you (food, water, litter, toys, meds, etc.), your pet is going to get plenty of affection, playtime, and exercise to keep them fed, happy and well-rested until my next visit (or your return). Let me know your pet’s preferences! High energy dog? Let’s go for a long walk or a run! More of a lap dog? Let's read or watch a movie and I’ll make sure we get in some quality cuddle time. Maybe it’s that time of year and your fur baby is shedding everywhere - let me help with the brushing!
“We are so grateful for the wonderful care you gave our pet Aki. Even though we were much later than expected in picking him up, you were incredibly kind and understanding. Thank you so much for your patience and generosity — it truly means a lot to us. Aki was clearly well taken care of and happy. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!””
“Shanilka was super responsive and understanding of my dog's needs!! She was very kind and prompt with pick up and drop off so I didn't have to wait long in the cold. Highly recommend!!”
“Guy helped us out when we needed a Doggie Day Care while we were visiting Arlington National Cemetery for an interment. We didn't know how long the 3 ceremonies would take, and he told us that he would help us for whatever we needed. With all that was going on for us, he offered comfort in taking care of our beloved Toby.”
“Look no further! This is a wonderful and completely dependable couple! I realized quickly that Zuri would feel right at home with Katherine and Brian and she is. Also there have been times that my job hours were unpredictable but K&B didn’t skip a beat and stepped right up to help. Thank you both so much ❤️”
About: Hello, I’m Carrie and I love dogs! I have two dogs right now - Mattie (14) and Mavis (4) - and I’ve had at least one my entire life. I grew up around animals and love being with them and taking care of them. I first used Rover for a 2-week boarding for my dogs a few years ago and it was such a wonderful experience I thought I’d open my home for dog daycare and boarding, too. My dogs have had less than great experiences in dog boarding facilities and so I understand the desire to have a family home environment for your dog while you are away! I would welcome your dog for daycare or boarding at my home where I have both a fenced yard and a wooded area with a stream for daily walks. I take my dogs out at least three times a day. The home is a single family home with two levels and lots of space. I work primarily from home and on the days when I’m at the office, my husband works from home. I would take care of your pup on the same scheduled as my dogs unless you request a specific schedule. My dogs have the roam of the home and I have a fenced in yard and an outdoor space into the woods for leashed walks. I welcome you to bring your dog with whatever would make the dog comfortable during the stay and have plenty of space for crates, beds, dishes, etc.
About: I love taking care of dogs and the liveliness they bring to any household. I've taken care of multiple dogs at once before and have experience feeding them medicine as well! I'm available almost all hours of the day as I work from home. Having pets around is great because I love the comfort they bring when it's just me in the house. I have a fenced in backyard, along with a sliding glass door to the backyard. I have multiple floors in my house so pets can roam to their heart's content.
About: For 11 years I was a Yorkie’s mom ( her name was Mimi) and for 17 years and 8 months a Shorkie’s mom (his name was Apollo). Now my precious babies crossed the rainbow Mimi in January 2024 then Apollo joined her over the rainbow on November 2025 and I miss them so very much.. I am an accountant and I am working part time from home and missing my furry babies terribly.So, I would love to help you care for your doggies. I absolutely love animals specially dogs and I have a special place in my heart for them. I care for pets as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, needs and routine. During walks, I use properly fitted collars or harnesses and I always listen to the dog’s needs and I let them choose their route and pace, always making sure they are away from harm’s way. With Mimi and Apollo I always said: “I don’t walk them they walk me”.

“Aida is kind, caring person who has a natural rapport with dogs. She promptly showed up at each appointed walk time and was great at interacting with our dog. She made the whole experience very pleasant and enjoyable. We will certainly hire her again.”
About: I’m a pre-vet student who just graduated from UVA and has grown up with two large dogs! I’ve also recently owned a hamster from a college lab! I have a lot of experience dog and cat sitting for friends and family including puppies, kittens, and senior dogs and cats. I also have about 100 hours of dog walking experience from a shelter so I am comfortable with reactive/fearful/energetic dogs, and another 100 from shadowing at a vet practice. I am currently looking for a vet assistant job so my schedule is open 7 days a week! I am used to all day pet sitting. I always make sure that I understand the instructions that I’m given and maintain clear communication with the owner if I have any questions. I never make any assumptions and always make sure that the owner is comfortable with any decisions that need to be made.
“Elise was excellent! Very communicative, took my dog for a good walk and made the whole process extremely easy on my end. Will definitely be having her help with my dog more!”
“Tricia is wonderful with my older black Labrador, Zack. I know he is well taken care of. I appreciate the details about his visit with Tricia too and I feel well informed about how he is doing. Tricia has been helpful working with me on scheduling too. Zack is doing great when I get home and I am happy to not have to worry. I know he is enjoying his time with Tricia.”

“Isabelle walks my goldendoodle furchild every day and she’s such an important part of Maya’s life. To start, she’s super communicative and reliable, which makes it really easy to plan and coordinate walks and dogcare with her. She was also great about learning what behaviors we try to reinforce, Maya’s habits and routines and what Maya eats, which gives me the warm and fuzzies that as a parent, aunt Isabelle is staying consistent with dad’s rules. Isabelle is so great with dogs and has good judgment generally; seeing how she interacts with Maya and hearing her describe how Maya did on a given walk, I trust her implicitly. Lately she’s been really helpful in figuring out fun new walking routes or destinations that cater to Maya’s interests and mood and energy level. Yep Isabelle is a wonderful dog “auntie” and just a delightful human being. I don’t know what her advertised rates are on here, but you should pay them and then some. Isabelle, get after it girl. Charge people what you’re worth! ?”
“Suphaphattra responded to us very quickly to walk our 55-lb lab mix on short-notice and did everything we hoped she would do! We would very happily use her services again - thank you Evie!”
“Juan walked our dog on short notice and was able to handle him jumping and barking without any issue. We really appreciate his friendliness and responsiveness.”
“Joon was great with Luna, who is a very sweet but timid dog especially since this was her first time being walked by someone else without my presence. Joon was calm, confident, and caring and I will 100% use him again.”
About: I had my dog from 5 months to 16 years 🤎 been through every stage of life with her. Your dog will be treated just like mine! Animals have a special place in my heart 😊 I work from home everyday so I am pretty much available anytime of the day! Depending on schedule and availability, Saturday and Sunday may be available. I have extra rooms in my house if your dog or cat needs to stay! I have my own cat who is friendly and chill
About: I had a small maltese-poodle mix for over 16 years who I personally trained, boarded dogs of a family friend, and walked rescue greyhounds and other rescues. I currently have pretty wide open availability with prior notice. I am allergic to cats so unfortunately cannot board cats, but am able to do drops-ins. I currently have a wide range of availability with prior notice while working a PRN job in healthcare with the elderly. Currently available for weekdays and weekends. I will follow any instructions given to a T while striving to maintain the routine your pet is accustomed to, while giving them plenty of scratches and belly rubs and cuddles :) I understand some rescues prefer less physical touch due to trust and comfort issues, and I will proceed with whatever level of touch your pet chooses to engage with me.
“Lianna has been great so far with Tucker! First and foremost, she really impressed me with our meet and greet. Asking such thoughtful questions, she showed how dedicated she was to providing the absolute best care to Tucker! With every walk since, Lianna has been diligent about updating me and even going as far as working on some training with Tuck. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind care provider for their fur babies!”
About: I recently graduated from the University of Virginia and have been pet sitting since I was a freshman in high school. I’ve always loved pets, and caring for them has become something friends, neighbors, and families consistently trust me with because I’m reliable, flexible, and enjoy spending time with animals. Over the years, I’ve dog sat for families in Charlottesville and cared for households with multiple dogs, helping with everything from walks and feeding to playtime and overnight care. I’m very active and love going on walks, so whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing outside, or just having someone dependable around, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I’m also comfortable working at all times of day. I’m currently in the process of applying to medical school and have a flexible schedule this summer before I begin teaching abroad in October. This gap period gives me plenty of availability to dedicate to pet sitting, walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and pet sitting has been a perfect way for me to combine responsibility, reliability, and my love for dogs during this exciting transition period in my life. Because my schedule is so open and adaptable right now, I’m able to accommodate a variety of needs and provide pets with the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions, because I know consistency is important for animals. I am respectful, clean, and reliable in clients’ homes.
“Jiafan has been absolutely wonderful walking our dog! She treats our dog like her own and we can tell she really loves animals. She always leaves a little note after our walk, and we really appreciate that!”
“On his visit, our senior dog was not feeling well, Brenna was patient with him to keep him accompanied. On the other visits, he took him out for nice walks. He is good at communicating the situations, provides updates and sends a lot of photos. We are happy to find him to care for our senior dog on the regular basis.”
“Roshni was such a great dog walker for my beagle, Willie! She was very friendly and very quick to respond from the time of booking through the week of the appointment. Your dog will be in great hands with Roshni.”

“We are so happy to have found Byamba and his family to board our dog, Rex. He was super responsive when booking, even though it was only a week before our trip. When I dropped Rex off, I could tell that Byamba was an experienced dog watcher. He was amazing with sending updates and pictures, so we felt super confident that Rex was well cared for. Highly recommend, and will definitely be using him again for future travel.”
“Jason and Becky were absolutely amazing with Teddie! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. They sent so many pictures and regular updates throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us see how much fun he was having. Teddie had the best time going to the dog park, playing with their two wonderful dogs, and getting lots of love and attention. It was clear they treated him like one of their own, and he came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We are so grateful for the incredible care they gave him and wouldn't hesitate to book with them again. We highly recommend Jason and Becky to anyone looking for caring, reliable sitters. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of our boy! 🐾”
“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”
“Kerstyn was wonderful throughout the entire boarding process. She was so professional and responded to all of my texts promptly. My pup unfortunately was feeling a bit unwell during her stay, but Kerstyn was a pro at both managing my dog’s needs and putting me at ease. I would absolutely recommend booking with Kerstyn!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Leo! John was absolutely amazing — from the very start he was super responsive and so kind. Leo can be picky about rain, lazy when it’s hot, and a little particular about his eating (clean dish every time!), but John handled everything so wonderfully. He made sure Leo got his walks (adjusting for weather!), gave him all the love, and kept us constantly updated with sweet photos and notes that really gave us peace of mind while we traveled. Coming home to such a happy and relaxed pup says it all. Truly grateful for the care, attention, and thoughtfulness John showed. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to love their pup like family!”
“Kevin was an excellent dog sitter for our golden retriever! He sent several pictures daily and was very accommodating with our pick up time/drop off. Will definitely use Kevin&family again!”
“Jennifer was so kind and attentive to my pup! I could tell my dog instantly warmed up to her and her dog and felt super comfortable there. She was great with communication and sent many adorable photos.”
“BLUF: Book in confidence. Helena and Nathan were great. Their comms were very clear and timely, they definitely know what they are doing in terms of thinking forward about how to give your dog the best experience and to give you peace of mind while they are being boarded there. Both their home and their yard are well-tended - no hazards for dogs like wires, broken boards, etc. They were also flexible in terms of dropoff/pickup times, as well as accommodating reasonable requests for toys, treats, and food options. They also allowed a friend of mine and their dog (who recommended me to Helena and Nathan) to stop by for a short playdate. Great experience and will book again!”
“Lucy and I had a great experience with Evan and his wife! This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little nervous, but Evan sent me updates with pictures frequently, giving me peace of mind that Lucy was in good hands! I highly recommend Evan for dog sitting and will definitely book him again!”
“Alexis and Andrew took care of our dog, Hazel, over Thanksgiving and were amazing. They were kind enough to do a meet-and-greet beforehand and sent updates and pictures every day that we were away. Their family made Hazel feel right at home and we would recommend them 100%!!!”
“Laura was fantastic! Our German Shepherd received exceptional care from her. We appreciated the frequent updates that reassured us our pet was doing wonderfully. It's clear Laura genuinely cares. After 8 years of using Rover and trying many sitters, Laura stands out as the best. Thanks again, Laura, for taking great care of our girl!”
“We are truly thankful to Michael for taking care of our dog while we traveled. She clearly had a great time and we appreciated the regular messages and photos of walks during her stay. Thanks Michael!”
“Clover came home from Andrew’s house relaxed, calm, and happy after a week-long stay. Andrew is great with communication and is an expert when it comes to dogs. Highly recommend!”
“We left our little fur baby KONA with Loreen. This was the first time we left our puppy and we were very anxious and nervous. Loreen took the BEST care of Kona, followed the same care routine that Kona is used to at home. Her lovely kids actually helped with keeping the training going while Kona stayed with them. Loreen was excellent at sending us pictures of Kona, which helped us quite a bit. We would definitely leave Kona again in Loreen’s care in a heartbeat!”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Joy! I’m so happy that we found you (and your family) to look after Joy for us. Joy is definitely missing you all and looking forward to another stay!”
“Karol was a wonderful Rover dog boarder for my boxer Addie. I would rebook with Karol again in the future. She sent photos multiple times a day, plus a video of Addie running outside. Karol is a wonderful communicator and I know Addie had a fun time staying with her. She came home happy and tired.”
