“Bertie was amazing! I have a new rescue dog and he and the family were so gracious with Dolly. It let my husband and I relax and enjoy Charlotte while we were visiting! They sent a bunch of pictures to show she was in good hands (even tho she is a handful) Highly recommend!!!”

“Hello! We really enjoyed meeting Jesse and Emily, they are warm and attentive. We really appreciated their wonderful care of our dog Lucy, how they accommodated us for an hour extra day and will definitely call them again! Caroline L.”

“Hannah did a great job watching our beagle. Our dog can be a bit nervous about new dogs, especially big ones, and Hannah introduced her gently and sent plenty of pics of the pack hanging out together.”

“Thank you so much, Svitlana, for taking such great care of my dog! You were incredibly helpful and excellent at communicating, both during the initial meet and greet and throughout the stay. I especially appreciated the photos and videos you shared – it really put my mind at ease. I’m so grateful for all your help!”

“My husband and I travel most places with our fur babies and finding local Rovers when they can't check-in with us. While we have had good success finding trusting and loving sitters, we really were blessed to meet Mark and Daniel. Their attention to detail prior to our pets arrival, their ability to be flexible when my scheduling mistake was uncovered, but most importantly, the level of care my pups received was top-notch. The home is clean, fenced in large yard and they really love what they do. I don't know if we will be back in that area, but if we are I will re-book with Mark and Daniel.”

“Hillary is a great sitter. A dog lover, she was so engaged and involved with our 2 Goldens during the week they stayed with her and her family. She sent multiple pictures, videos, and texts every day. The dogs were in great shape when we picked them up and it was clear that that they had been very well cared for. It is so comforting to know that your beloved pets are in good hands and Hillary exudes that type of confidence in her care. We are empty nesters and could tell from the videos and pics that the dogs loved playing with her children. I highly recommend Hillary!”

“Aly was great and Rory had an amazing time! She sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated on her the whole time. She was also super flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to pick her up late. All around wonderful experience!”

“Ava (as a host) and her space (big back yard) were the perfect match for our Australian Shepherd (Ridge)! She was super responsive, sent plenty of picture/video updates, & our pup LOVED his time there. We will definitely be booking Ava again when we go on trips and need someone to watch Ridge 😊”

“Rebecca took great care of my Pepper while I was away. She sent daily updates and made sure she got plenty of play time! Pepper loved being able to run around and play in the large fenced in yard!”

“Julie is great. I feel like she and her family treated my dogs like they were part of the family. She was good about sending me pictures and updates. I highly recommend her and plan on having her keep my dogs whenever I go out of town.”

“Mariellen and Robert were wonderful! They sent daily updates with photos.They took Oakley on long walks and played games with him. He’s all tired out! Mariellen and Robert are good communicators and well organized. They left my house spotless. I will definitely call them again and recommend them to friends.”


“Mary and her family are AWESOME! My dog Blue is a very small papillon and can be a little shy at first. Mary and her family did such a wonderful job making Blue feel right at home. She sent tons of super cute photos and updates and her son even brushed little Blue! I know my pup was living it up at her home and I felt so comfortable leaving her there. When I picked Blue up I could tell she really acclimated to being there! Mary’s family has two sweet doggies as well so Blue got some extra doggy socialization while she was there too. I’d recommend Mary and fam in a heartbeat and hope that Blue will be able to stay there again. 10/10 absolutely would recommend!”

“Caroline was great with our dog, and was a really nice person to meet and talk to. I can highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet.”

“Brooke was wonderful! She took care of our dog and my son's and daughter-in-law's dog during their wedding weekend. She even brought their dog to the wedding so she could be in it! Highly recommend!”

Woolen Mills dog parents share their Rover experiences
We LOVE Bertie and family! They take the sweetest care of Piper and make her feel like family. We never have to worry when we leave Piper because we know she will be loved on by everyone- especially their sweet kids! Bertie and family are our go-to sitters and have watched our pup more times than we can count. We can’t speak highly enough! A must use if you want your pup to get the best care!

Penny was an outstanding sitter to work with. Our pups seemed to do really well with her and her own dogs. She was very accommodating, a great communicator, and super easy to work with in every respect. We were also sent plenty of pictures throughout their visit. I’d recommend Penny to anyone looking for help with their pet(s).

Julie and her family took excellent care of Spencer when we were out of town! She sent regular updates and pics so we could see how well he was doing. It gave us such peace of mind to know that he was having great time. We'll definitely be reaching out to Julie again when we need a sitter for Spencer.

Kelley was the ABSOLUTE BEST! She and her husband (and their sweet dog Piper) were the perfect hosts to our dog Baylee. While Baylee has the tendency to get a bit anxious or temperamental around strangers, she made herself right at home due to the welcoming and warm nature of Kelley and her beautiful crew. Kelley was amazing with her communication - regularly sending photos, texts, and updates - so I knew how Baylee was doing the entire time we were gone. As a result, we were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was being well cared for a completely spoiled. 15/10 would recommend Kelley as your next dog sitter... Unless I need her to watch Baylee, because there's no one else we'd use as a dog sitter from hereon out! :)

Tionna took amazing care of my 1.8yo female German Shepherd Dog named Dasha for a full week, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She sent multiple updates and photos every single day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Dasha was well cared for, happy, and getting plenty of attention. When I picked up Dasha, she came back happy, relaxed, and completely herself — not stressed or withdrawn in any way. You can truly tell when a dog has been treated with kindness, and that was absolutely the case here. I would 100% use Tionna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and attentive sitter. Thank you, Tionna!

Paula was absolutely amazing with our dog and made her feel right at home from day one. She took excellent care of her, kept us at ease while we were away, and was incredibly flexible and accommodating when our return travel got complicated. We’re so grateful for her kindness and care when it came to taking care of our pup and would 100% book with her again — five stars without hesitation!

Izzy is the best sitter! Our dog, Maisie, seemed to know this before she even got inside the apartment. All wags and up on the couch and happy before we got down the road. Great communication, too—photos and videos—and a play date at Izzy’s family home with two Doodles on top of all the good care. We can’t wait to book again.
