“Sharon was the perfect sitter for our mini labradoodle Sydney. She took excellent care of Sydney and kept us updated with texts, pics and videos throughout our trip. We felt that Sydney was safe and loved while we were away and could relax and enjoy our trip. We will definitely be contacting Sharon to see if she is available next time we need a sitter!”
“Victoria is WONDERFUL! She is attentive, kind, and flexible. She worked with us when our flight was delayed and took such excellent care of our dog. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care.”
“100% would recommend Ric to care for your pups. Great daily updates and quick response time on bookings. Oscar stayed 1 full week and certainly felt at home. Thanks!!”
“Dodger came back happy! Michelle sent photos and updates everyday and was very mindful of our requests. I'm insuring his behavior. We recommend Michelle and will be using her again in a few weeks!”
“Amy was amazing!! She sent pictures of my dog frequently and provided a lot of updates. She took such great care of my dog. She is reliable, prompt, and attentive! She made sure my dog got lots of walks and did fun activities. I will be using her again in the future!!”
“I’m so glad I found Kathleen! She thinks of every detail and treats my baby boy just like her own. She sends plenty of pictures keeping me up to date and tells me how he’s doing. She took him on a long walk and made sure he was as comfortable as possible while I was away. We will definitely be seeing more of her in the future! 10/10”
“We feel very fortunate to have found Gary and his wife who took care of our dog, Grace, for a month! They shared their dog wisdom, kindness and home, providing a warm welcome for our sweet, (and shall we say, spirited?), 60 pound two-year-old puppy. Their own two dogs are the nicest dogs you'll ever meet, and the big fenced backyard provided ample space for everyone to play. Will we be back? You can bet your bottom dollar!”
“Kristina and Fletcher were so amazing for our three babies. We know our dogs have some unique traits (Luna is scared of hardwood floors) and Murphy can be very mischievous and they handled all of their quirks with the utmost care and patience. They even gave our Hazel a bath! We received updates and pictures everyday! We truly appreciate everything they did for our dogs!”
“Sierra always takes excellent care of Max! He has some separation anxiety and can be shy at times, but he is always very excited to see her when I drop him off. I can tell that he is very relaxed under her care and really enjoys all the snuggles and play time!”
“Thank god...I am incredibly grateful to have found Rachel. I cannot even begin to imagine how I would have managed without her generosity and kindness. A few days ago, I suffered a severe back injury at home and was completely immobilized. I sent a desperate message to Rachel, who immediately came to my aid without any hesitation. Not only did she take care of my dog, Somi, but she also checked up on me with great kindness. Rachel was super accommodating and took wonderful care of Somi, who is now missing her terribly. After dropping back at my place, my dog kept whining and looking for Rachel. This is the first time my dog has ever missed her sitter. Rachel gave her a lot of love and attention. Such an amazing person with a warm heart.”
“This is the first time Brody has stayed in someone else’s home without us. What a good experience Brody had. And we feel very comfortable leaving him with Ellyn again. He was well cared for in every way.”
“Jessica has been wonderful for taking care of our pups (2 now). She constantly updates is on what their doing and you can tell is a true animal lover. Plus they’re always exhausted when we pick them up which is great 🙂”
“Christine is the best! She was in constant communication with us in the lead up to and throughout Leo’s stay. She was flexible in working around our often changing pickup schedule and easily accommodated all of our pups needs. Will definitely book with Christine next time we need a dog sitter. Thanks again!”
“Milo was so well taken care of & had a wonderful stay. I loved the puctures and updates serval times a day. The entire family took part in his care & giving him love while we were on this much-needed getaway. We have found the perfect sitter for him & will definitely have him stay again . Thank you so much for taking such good care of our little guy❤️”
“Breanna was so wonderful watching my pup, Kira, for the weekend! They went on walks, met other dog friends, and got doggy ice cream. She was thorough about asking if Kira had allergies and how she reacted to other dogs beforehand, which was much appreciated! I will absolutely go with Breanna again next time Kira needs to be watched over a weekend!”
“Tevon was a great sitter and very accommodating when I hit some travel delays! I also very much appreciated the FaceTime call before dropping off my pup.”
“We have asked them to watch our pups for the past few years now and they are absolutely wonderful sitters. Sebastian and his wife really spoil and give our dogs the attention and care they deserve all while keeping us updated on their stay. As a family of 5 with 3 small children, I think our dogs really enjoy the break they get when staying with Sebastian 😅. They are our go to sitters and we can’t thank them enough for all the love and attention they give our pups!”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing! She is Incredibly informative and provided regular updates with photos. Most importantly, she is an experienced sitter that’s attentive to your pets needs. For a trustworthy and compassionate sitter, I highly recommend Ashley.”
“Carol took great care of our puppy, Max, for about a week while we were on vacation. She was wonderful! Max seemed so happy in all the videos and pictures Carol shared. I think Max actually misses being there and having more friends to play with! Carol is easy to communicate with and was very flexible and accommodating.”

Whitaker dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sandra watched my dog Molly for a weekend. I had forgotten to tell her that this was Molly's first time away from our home since we rescued her over 6months ago. So Molly was a basket case the first evening, and Sandra had tried to get a hold of me and let me know that Molly was not having a good time. She took great care of Molly and was patient with her that first evening, not sure how she did it but Molly calmed down and was fine for the rest of the weekend. Sandra has a lovely backyard for the dogs to run around and play. I am booking her again for our next weekend away. :)
10/10 would recommend! I was really nervous about leaving my 2 dogs since they both have separation anxiety. Also because both of my dogs can be dog aggressive. Kristina and Fletcher were so amazing! They sent photos and updates everyday. They made me feel like I wasn’t leaving my dogs with strangers. I would 100% use them again!
We were lucky to find Allison for our last-minute request! One of our rescue dogs is still becoming more socialized - so he definitely needs to sense a "vibe" to be able to connect with someone - and after I got a good feeling at our meet-and-greet, we booked. He took to Allison pretty quickly and by the end of the weekend, they were snuggling. We would definitely use Allison again, if she'll have us. :) Thanks, Allison!
Tracie did an amazing job taking care of Buddy—she literally fed him like a baby and made sure he was comfortable every step of the way. It's clear how much love and attention she gave him, and we can tell he’s missing you all, especially his playtime with Link. We're so grateful for everything you did to make Buddy feel at home while we were away. I can confidently say that with Tracie, your fur baby is in the safest hands. We’ll definitely be reaching out again!
Sara and Tovia helped us with our dog Lumos when our pet care fell through. It was a last minute arrangement and they were very gracious. They communicated multiple times per day with pictures and updates—the peace of mind we had was priceless. They truly seemed to treat him like a member of their own family. We would absolutely trust them with our pup in the future!
