“Nick and Cora were great with our chow chow. They took him for many walks and kept him company. They were great for me too, sending many pictures and texts to let me know how he was doing. Six stars!”
“Thank you Tatiana and family for taking care of Cindy while we were out on a 5 day Cruise. You are amazing and i felt comfortable and at ease leaving our pet with you. Tatiana is a great sitter. She will treat your pet like her own family.”

“Artem was incredible! Our other Rover sitter fell through at the last minute, and he willingly took in our pup that same day, so we could catch our flight on time! He was very responsive, and it was clear that he kept a safe and structured environment for the dogs. I would highly recommend him and will definitely call on him the next time we need our dog boarded. Thank you again, Artem!”

Would use her again in a heartbeat!”

Jami was assuring, VERY nice and accommodating to our extended need for dog sitting! Jami sent pictures and a video showing Yoddah comfortable and happy! Our dog was pampered and enjoyed his stay. We will definitely be rebooking in the near future. We wish we could give 10 ⭐️'s❣️ Highly recommended. -theBookmans”

“So happy with my Misty’s first visit to Ziya! Great location, huge fenced yard for playtime. Misty was treated like one of the family. Ziya has two of her own dogs and Misty had a wonderful time playing with them. My first time using a sitter and I had no worries about Misty’s safety. HIGHLY recommend Ziya”
“Karina is the best she’s watched my dog Cassius many times now. It so comforting knowing I can rely on her when I have to go out of town and can’t bring my dog!”
Wilmington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Nick and Cora! Such lovely people with good hearts! My puppy Rue enjoyed her stay in their lovely home. They sent pictures of Rue eating and walking and gave updates during her stay. Rue gets anxious when she is left alone and their home was the perfect place for her. They both took really good care of my puppy and it reflected when I picked Rue up on the last day! Will definitely re book with them in the future.
Ashley was amazing. My dog, Nipsey, had a great time at her house. After the initial meet and greet, my worries all left as I could tell she would be the perfect person for the job. She was super attentive and followed all directions. She provided medications as needed but most importantly she gave him tons of love. I highly recommend Ashley if you're looking for a trustworthy person with a great heart and love for animals.
I can’t recommend Katherine enough! From the moment I dropped off my Loki, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. Dobermans can be high-energy and require attentive care, and it was clear right away that they truly understood his needs. Throughout the stay, I received consistent updates, photos, and little notes that reassured me my dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and comfortable. They went above and beyond with attention and affection—treating my dog like their own. When I picked my dog up, I could immediately tell how well they had been cared for. Loki was happy and clearly bonded with their Katherine . It’s not easy to find someone you trust with your pet, but this experience exceeded all my expectations. I will absolutely be booking with Katherine again. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly passionate about animals, this is the person you want!
Traci is awesome and took good care of my Benni boy. I get nervous whenever I leave him with a new dog sitter but she immediately made me feel at ease the moment I met her. She dedicates herself to rescuing and nurturing dogs with lots of tender loving care. Benni had a huge smile on his face when I picked him up and he seemed in such great spirits. I can tell he had a great time with her and his new furry friends. I really appreciated Traci’s updates and videos of my Benni have a good time while I was out of town. He can be a little loud mouth so I was also grateful for her patience and understanding of his quirks. 😁 🫶🏽
Jiana was so incredibly warm and sweet! We could tell immediately that Nala was in such good hands. Jiana did a great job providing care and love for our baby! She checked in, sent photos, and followed care instructions. Our puppy is also in her first heat and Jiana did such an amazing job taking care of her diaper needs and instructions with other dogs. We would absolutely love to have Jiana watch Nala again and recommend her to all of our friends!
So glad I found Thomas on Rover! We left our pup with him for a whole week while we were on vacation. It was clear from pictures and messages that Thomas bonded with our little buddy and gave him special attention and excellent care. We’ll be coming back to Thomas again!
