“Matthew was amazing with our dog, Charley. We had the best experience having Matthew watch Charley. I’m sad that we don’t live in New York; I’d LOVE for Matthew to watch my dog in a regular basis. Thank you Matthew for making it so easy to leave Charley knowing that she was in great hands. She will miss you!!!”
“We were in a bit of a bind, as our planned sitter had to cancel last minute and this was our first rover experience. We were nervous and sad to leave our 5 month old puppy, but Yuan and Iam instantly put us at ease and we knew they were going to love our puppy like their own. They were amazing with updates and facetimes with my son! LuLu wad very cared for and very loved”
“Moonyoung and Sunhuyung were fantastic! They were very responsive and I was able to set up a meet and greet with them before booking. Communication was great and I received daily updates from them with lots of pictures. Brody was comfortable with them right away and adjusted to his normal routine from the get go. Would definitely recommend them and use them again.”
“John was the perfect choice to watch my sweet Barney while I was on a vacation. He is a true dog lover and treated Barney as his own. I will definitely be leaving my pup in his care when i travel in the future. So Thankful to have found John!”

“Angie did an incredible job in caring for our 17 year old senior dog for 10 days when we went on winter break. Our 60lb dog needs a booty lift to get a head start for her walks and some help with peeing. Angie was very patient in encouraging her to walk a little more each day. Angie also kept us updated daily with pictures and videos. She really took care of our dog as if she were her own and this is the 2nd time we’ve used her. We highly recommend Angie! And will definitely use her again.”
“Marlene, took such great care of our pup while we were away on vacation. She provided daily updates/pictures to let us know how Nova was adjusting which gave us peace of mind knowing our girl was in good hands! Nova came back healthy, happy and clearly well-loved!”
“Stephanie was absolutely the best, we loved her calm energy. Rolex felt right at home with her and Toby. She communicated often with pics and updates and we loved that. 10/10 experience and highly recommend. We’ll be back!”
“I honestly will never be switching dog sitters. Summer is amazing with my dog and they’ve built such a cute and strong relationship. My dog has a very anxious background and her whole world lights up everytime she sees summer! It’s the sweetest thing and makes me feel so much better as a dog mom, to leave my pup with someone she loves and trusts. Also Summer sends updates like her life depends on it and I appreciate that so so much😭 I often miss my dog and wish I could take her everywhere with me but with summers updates I still feel close with my baby!! Thank you summer for taking such good care of pepper. Thank you for all the extra walks, and extra play time at the park, and all the cuddles that pepper cannot live without 😂😂!!! You’re in our hearts forever !!! 💗”
“Wan and her husband were so kind and loving to my dog Sandy. They have a large fenced in back yard for playing and bathroom breaks. Wan's dog George is very friendly and made Sandy feel welcomed. I will definitely trust Wan to watch Sandy in the future. I highly recommend Wan.”
“Dream dog sitters! They give my dog so much attention, play time with other dogs and outdoors, and cuddles that I don’t think he has a moment free to miss me. And they’re great about making sure that he gets his medications. I feel very fortunate to have found them!”
“Kathy was fantastic! Gracie obviously had a fabulous time and didn't want to leave. Kathy sent us pictures and videos during the stay and was super responsive to all communication. Would 100% recommend Kathy to anyone, and hope she's available whenever we need a sitter in the future!”
“Angelica took great care of Kora again!! Kora wasn't eating in the morning and Angelica hand fed her until she started to eat on her own, thankful Angelica is this caring of the pets she sits for. Thank you Angelica”

She sent updates and photos about how he was doing, which really put us at ease. We’re so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter.”
“Miki was an absolute lifesaver! She stepped in at the last minute and took amazing care of my dog, Benji. Communication was excellent, she was reliable, professional, and genuinely caring, and I felt completely at ease knowing Benji was in such good hands. It’s such a relief to find someone you can trust, especially on short notice, and Miki truly exceeded my expectations. I’m incredibly grateful for her help and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“We had such a great experience with Yuberkis. She took wonderful care of our dog while we were away for 11 days. She is great with communication, asking questions, and sending updates. I knew my dog was in wonderful hands the entire time we were away! Thank you!!”

Christina took wonderful care of my pet, Koffee, for the day. Koffee can be a little nervous at first, but he warmed up quickly thanks to the patient, gentle attention he received. I really appreciate the regular updates and photos—they gave me peace of mind knowing he was happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Christina and contact her for any needs in the future.
I had a great experience and felt very comfortable boarding Eevee with Endre. He sent photos and videos everyday, and it was clear that she was well cared for. Over the weekend, there was also a snowstorm and still he brought her out for walks and to enjoy playing in the snow! I really appreciate the extra effort and attentiveness, especially given the tough weather. Thank you!
I can’t say enough good things about Rocío! She took care of my pup for 8 days and I truly have nothing bad to say. Even though it was a cold week, if it was safe and appropriate to take him outside, she did—and she constantly took him out for his needs. She kept me in constant communication the whole time, which gave me so much peace of mind. When I picked him up, he smelled so good and was clearly well taken care of. I would 100% rebook with her and highly recommend her! 🐾🖤
Exceptional care for your furry family members and peace of mind for pet parents. We could not be more pleased with the care our dog received from Heather. From start to finish, it was clear that he was in excellent hands. She was attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog returned to us happy, relaxed, safe, and healthy—clear signs of thoughtful and compassionate care. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.
I had to take an extended trip for almost 3 weeks, and Kathryn did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs while I was away. I knew they would be in good hands during the meet and greet because she is such a warm person and has a lovely home with a backyard which made the extended time away more manageable for my pups.
This was my third time using Christian, and once again, everything went perfectly! Even though I had a hectic weekend and ended up getting sick and droping off a date late and two days early, he made pickup and drop off super easy. Murphy absolutely loves going there. He knew exactly where we were headed and was so excited when we pulled up. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in great hands every time!
We left our Izzie, with Evelyn for four days and were very pleased with the experience. Evelyn was professional, attentive, and provided regular updates that gave us peace of mind. Izzie came home happy, and clearly well cared for. We highly recommend Evelyn to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter on Rover.
Hank bad a great time with DooHyang & Frank during boarding! DooHyang & Frank sent us multiple pictures throughout the day (some which looked like professional shots!) as well as frequent communications throughout the day to ensure all was okay for Hank! I will def request again if Hank needs to be boarded again in the future! Thank you, DooHyang & Frank!!
Stephanie was amazing! She took such great care of my two Frenchies while I was away. She kept me updated and I could tell my dogs were happy, relaxed, and loved. She treated them like her own, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend Stephanie for anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet boarder! 🐾 thank u
