“I had a wonderful experience with Yan taking care of Roro! She treated Roro with so much love and care, taking her out for daily walks and sending me updates with pictures and videos. Roro looked so comfortable and joyful in her home. I will definitely rebook in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”


“We are over the moon with how well our dog’s stay with Christine and Matthew went. Great communicators and our dog’s happy demeanour in their presence says it all. Highly recommend.”


“I have used Rover for many years now and Polina has been the best. Between the fast responses, last minute confirmed bookings for my pup and the amount of love and attention he gets while in her care goes unmatched. I would recommend her to everyone and I will continue to use her for all my bookings moving forward!”


“Donna was wonderful!! She sent pictures and took care of my dog as if he was her own …., her prices are reasonable too and I am looking forward to my next trip because I will have no worries about my baby. I feel like I made a friend as well…..”


“Kristen was great to work with and very responsive. This was my first time using a Rover and she made the process very easy! She sent lots of pictures while we were away (she had him for a week!) and my pup had a great time playing with her dog. Thank you for taking great care of him (and us!).”

About: Hi! I’m Semaj, a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to Indee, my sweet and social pup who loves making new friends! I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and have become the go-to sitter for all of my friends and family. Your dog will be treated like family here. We offer a safe, cozy, and playful environment with lots of love, attention, and experience including basic training support. Whether it’s for daycare or boarding, we can’t wait to welcome your furry friend into our home! I work fully remote with a very flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I have a fully secure fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“Ashley was great! Our pups had a great time and were well cared for. She carried out careful meet-and-greets outside the home which allowed the pups to become comfortable and more relaxed. Looking forward to their next visit and would definitely recommend.”


“Lisa and Jon took care of my dog for a full week and they were excellent. Great communication, and regular updates with pictures, and our dogs seemed to get along great. We had no issues and I’ll definitely be coming back to Lisa and Jon the next time I have to leave town :)”

Washington Square dog parents share their Rover experiences
During the booking process, Alyssa asked really thoughtful questions and prompt responses to ensure her home would be a good fit for our dog. She was then very patient and responsive to our dog through some heightened anxiety while he adjusted to being away from us. She provided everything he needed (calm presence, solid walks) and communicated clearly with pictures and updates about how he was settling in during his stay. I would trust her with our dog again and highly recommend!

Thank you so much for taking such great care of Scotch while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and photos—they made me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands. It means a lot to know he was well looked after, happy, and getting plenty of attention. Thanks again for everything!

Dayna was a god send when my sister was going into labor and I needed a sitter same day, with only a couple hours notice. She also allowed me to extend the stay on notice. She was beyond flexible and accommodating. My girl Nova had a great time and was well taken care of. Dayna, made sure to ask about any specific needs Nova had proving how caring and responsible she is. I also received serval photos and videos of Nova during her stay. I could not recommend her highly enough.
