“I highly recommend George and Chieu as dog sitters! They took great care of Karla. They are friendly and very responsive, and consistently send you pictures and updates about how your dog is doing. We will definitely book them again!”

“Julia was great! She always had great communication, easy to coordinate drop off and pick up and it is clear that she put care and attention into taking care of our pup! Thank you Julia!”

“Cecile and Michael were great with Lucy! They were extremely accommodating to meet me and Lucy prior to booking and were great to provide updates during Lucy’s stay with them!”

“This is our second time having Hazel stay with Andrew. Andrew is incredibly attentive to the needs of our senior dog, and very communicative. Hazel is always happy to see Andrew and clearly well taken care of when we pick him up. Thank you so much Andrew!”

“Marcos was fantastic! He sent plenty of photos of my dog and was incredibly responsive. There was ample space for my dog to run around, and Marcos and his family did an excellent job making him feel at home. My dog even cried when it was time to leave. Highly recommend!!”

“Irene was great with our two year old Westie, Bella! She was very responsive before and during Bella’s stay with her and Bella got to partake in many fun activities during her weekend stay! We loved getting many picture updates and Bella also loved hanging out with Irene’s son. Would definitely recommend Irene and her family for any pups that are kid friendly!”

“Christina is amazing with my baby girl Cocoa!! As soon as we turn the corner, Cocoa cant contain her excitement to reach Christina’s home. I get a bunch of updates and cuddly pics while I’m away (they’re great but I get fomo!!!) lol”

“Melissa was wonderful! She is so sweet and so good with dogs, I knew my dog was in good hands the whole time. Her dog Dill is also precious and got along so well with my dog. I highly recommend her!”

“Nathan was phenomenal! This was my first time using Rover and he went above and beyond to make me and my pup feel as comfortable and cared for as possible! Constant communication, pictures, and updates! Even when I wasn’t responding. Getting to see my pup enjoying Nathan was awesome and I truly appreciate the level of care and compassion he put into the entire weekend. Not only did he do a great job with beaux, he also went out of his way to help me get beaux to him, as well as dealing with my poor planning on the original booking and sticking him with Beaux for an extra couple of hours on the back end when he truly did not have to do either of those things! At any point Nathan could have called my emergency contact and been done with the whole thing but he stuck it out with me and beaux and truly made this an awesome experience! 5 stars isn’t enough! Thank you for everything my friend!”

“Katie was great! Our dog had an injury that required some extra care and Katie made sure our pup was well taken care of and kept us updated throughout our dog’s stay”

“Audrey is the best! She sent us multiple photos and videos each day and it was clear that Pickles had such a great time with her. If she’s available, book her!”

“Lemna was absolutely fantastic! She gave us great updates, and it seemed like Millie was very comfortable there. She took her on plenty of walks, sent us lots of pictures, and even gave her a nice long walk before we picked her up so she’d be tired for us. We would recommend her so highly!”

“Diana and Scott were amazing! They gave regular updates, sent fun videos/photos, and were super flexible. Ww will be sending our pup to stay with them again!”

“Omar was SO great with our two dogs while we were away for a long weekend. Drop off and pickup were very easy and he sent pictures and videos throughout the weekend. We could tell that our dogs were having a great time!! We will definitely book with him again in the future.”

“Bronx (and I!) love Ann! She always takes great care of him and loves him like her own. Always super attentive and sends the cutest pictures. Thank you!!”


“Megan did a great job! Stella got so much exercise. When Stella had a minor medical problem, Megan kept us updated and handled it very well. We will definitely use her again.”

“Barbara is AMAZING!! She is everything you could hope for in a person to entrust the care of your pet. She is extremely reliable, and takes her job very seriously, and does it with a very warm disposition. Our dog Lanie is older, and we wanted someone who would understand her needs. Barbara really delivered. She's like a dog whisperer. We received updates and pictures everyday, and Lanie was happy, well rested and given EXCELLENT care while staying with Barbara and Chewy. Her dog Chewy has a great personality too, and was a lovely companion for our dog to hang out with. She covered every aspect of Lanie's care with us beforehand in detail, and I have never been more at ease with leaving Lanie with her. We've had a lot of boarding experiences over the years, and Barbara is hands down, simply the BEST! We have already booked with her for another upcoming stay, and I am so happy to have found someone who is so dedicated and genuine. If I could give her 10 stars instead of 5, I would!”

“John & Ryan took wonderful care of our dog, Freddie. He was the perfect playmate for Bruno. John & Ryan gave us consistent updates and pictures so we were rest assured he was in great hands! We will book again.”

West Town dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lily was terrific! Very communicative and thorough and took great care of our senior pup. She made me feel really comfortable during the initial meet n greet and continued to update us throughout the stay. We had some issues of our dog having anxiety accidents and Lily was very understanding and empathetic about the situation and communicating with us. We really appreciate her!!

Nadia was the perfect sitter for our puppy Luka. She was loving and caring and kept me updated on everything they did throughout the day and was extremely responsive and responsible! She spoiled him with so much love and that’s really all we ever ask for. Highly recommend her- we plan on using her for all of our sitting needs. Thanks, Nadia! You are the absolute best!

Nicole is absolutely incredible! She took exceptional care of our two puppies during our time away, going above and beyond to ensure they were happy and comfortable. She consistently sent us photos and videos. Her regular updates gave us peace of mind, knowing that our pups were in such loving hands. We are so grateful to have someone so dedicated and trustworthy looking after our pets. Nicole is truly a lifesaver, and we couldn't have asked for a better caregiver for our pups!
This was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving our dog with someone besides our family. I HIGHLY recommend using Keri for all your dog sitting needs! We had a dog meet and greet prior to make sure our dogs meshed well (great idea). Once my dog was in her care, we got daily pictures and status updates. This is your sign to book! We will definitely be using her again

Carly was amazing! We have two dogs, one of whom suffers from extreme anxiety and needs special care. Carly couldn't have been more accommodating and kind and she kept us well informed of all of their activities while we were away. Both of our dogs loved being with her and we would recommend her to anyone without hesitation!
