“Steven was great. My pups felt right at home. Steven is very accommodating, and I would highly recommend him as a sitter for your babies. I appreciate such a caring person while I traveled it made me feel very comfortable.”
“Whitley took such great care of my senior dog. Shout outs for the last minute accomodation. I really appreciated the videos, reports and that her dog was such a good host too.”
“Lydia was so sweet and welcoming! We really appreciate her taking care of our dog Pluto over the weekend, especially since we had to book last minute. Pluto had so much fun playing with her dog Ophelia! Lydia sent us a lot of updates and photos throughout the weekend. Thank you so much for a great experience!”
“Laura and Joe took care of our two older dogs for a week while we drove a couple of hours to have a vacation. We knew from our visit with them that Laura would be caring and attentive, but she really did go above and beyond! We received multiple updates and photos and videos daily. Even more impressive was how well Laura handled a behavioral problem that arose with one of our dogs. I had forgotten that he once had this problem with us -six years ago when we got him - and when it popped up again, Laura dealt with it so well! She even purchased something that we thought would help, after messaging with me about the issue. Laura’s care and confidence saved our vacation, when a less experienced sitter might have asked us to return and pick up our dog. The problem resolved and our dogs had a wonderful stay with Laura and Joe. We have always used a kennel in the past. It is a small one and the dogs are out playing much of the day. Last time, things did not go well there for our 13 year-old dog. We tried Rover to find someone who would provide both a safe setting and special care for our dogs. We got this with Laura, for sure!”
“Amanda is the absolute best!!! We were gone overseas for two weeks. Got detailed updates and photos daily to keep minds at ease. Daisy 🌼 has so much fun and is well cared for. Cannot recommend enough! We love Amanda!!”
“Annmarie was excellent and I trusted her 100% with my dog! She had great communication with me and was very quick to respond to me through the app! My dog looked happy in the photos and updates she sent and when I picked him up! She has years of experience with dogs and you can tell! I do highly recommend her and feel lucky to have another safe pet sitter for the future!”
“We had such a great experience with Andrea! She went out of her way to make sure Ollie was comfortable and happy during his stay. She sent tons of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated—it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We never had to worry because she was so attentive and clearly cared about his well-being. We would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter!”
“We recently went on a trip up north and didn't want to leave our dog in a kennel, so we came across Sheila on rover. She had a large fenced in area and was very knowledgeable about dog dynamics. She took great care of our fur baby and will definitely be our go to person to care for our dog!”
“Samantha took great care of our Dog while we were on a longer vacation. It was comforting to know she was having fun playing with Samantha’s dogs and got to play in the large backyard and sleep in her own bed. Thanks again!”
“I had a great experience with this sitter! He was very easy to work with, communicated clearly, and sent me daily updates that gave me total peace of mind. Most importantly, he was wonderful with my dogs. They were happy and well cared for when I got back. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”

“Our first time leaving our dog behind and we had an amazing experience with Tory! She made us feel very relaxed that our pup is in great hands, we will definitely return in the future. She is great at sending updates and pictures and our dogs seemed to have had a great time. We highly recommend her!”
“Michael was incredibly understanding when our plans changed unexpectedly. We had to travel on short notice for a funeral, and he made sure to send his condolences and let me know he was available to help in any way he could. Throughout the time we were away, he was very responsive and kept us updated regularly. We received photos of Daisy at least every six hours, which really helped ease our minds. It was clear she was happy and having a good time, especially since she was included in playtime with his dogs. We truly appreciated the care and attention Michael gave her, and we will definitely reach out to him again for future trips when we can’t bring our fur baby along.”
“Katie was incredible. She showed Rue an immense amount of love, provided lots of updates, and has an excellent environment to allow Rue to relax and enjoy her time away. I couldn't recommend her more!! She's the best.”
“She is the nicest babysitter my dog has ever had I can tell just by the photos that he felt comfortable with her she was so understanding because he has bladder issues and still does mark the house sometimes but she made sure that he had his diapers on 24/7 her pets are so nice and made my furbaby feel welcome. And I cannot have an asked for a better person to babysit my baby while I was gone. I had no worries whatsoever. Thank you once again 🙌🏽❤️”
