Our take
Rover.com connects pet parents with the nation’s largest network of loving and trustworthy pet sitters and dog walkers. Through Rover, pet parents can discover, book, and manage personalized care for their dogs, including pet sitting, dog walking, in-home dog boarding, and doggy day care.
Rover has fundamentally changed the U.S pet services industry, a market which is worth $10+ billion, by improving the way pet owners find and book pet care. Rover’s app is now the most downloaded and best-reviewed dog walking and pet sitting app in North America.
Although things slowed down for the company during the pandemic, the successful bounce-back has led it to an IPO and significant growth, notably in European markets. Pet spending is on the rise too, and Rover seems well positioned to ride that wave - an outlook reinforced by its $2.3 billion acquisition by Blackstone, which shows both the platform's resilience and the long-term attractiveness of its offering.
