David has been awesome with Roxi! He is great at communicating if he's running late, when he is grouping her together with other dogs, and clarifying if something looks odd in the schedule. He has been really accommodating with last minute changes, and making sure he prioritizes her safety.

If I could leave a million star review I would. Tyler and his fiancée literally saved my dog’s life!! While I was out of town my dog got extremely sick. They took him to the emergency vet two separate times. He stayed there with him all night one of those nights. He made sure that he was getting great care before leaving him. He also communicated very well with me this whole time. He helped so much while I was trying to get home from another country. They are the ONLY reason my dog survived. If it weren’t for them being so caring and attentive I would not have my dog home with me right now. If you’re looking for someone kind, caring, and attentive, DEFINITELY book with Tyler!

Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of my fur babies! I’d never left them alone for this long and it was so nice to get your updates and pics daily. I knew you’d be perfect when you came for the walk through and took notes, it shows great dedication and accountability. The fur babies loved having your visits, and not just because you were giving them food. ?

Nicolas is an excellent pet sitter! He took such good care of my cat while I was gone over the holidays--he even made sure to leave my cat's favorite music on over night and open his Christmas present and send me pictures of him playing with it! I appreciate the daily pictures and updates that assure me my baby is doing fine. I highly recommend Nicolas for your next trip :)

Tom as usual was a great sitter! He took excellent care of my senior cat and was able to administer oral liquid medication. I was able to be away with the peace of mind that my cat was under Tom’s care.

Layla was amazing with my special needs senior boy Dexter, and my kitty Tessa. She followed my instructions and asked great questions. She was present, thoughtful, and communicated with me during her time with them. I got the sweetest photos and videos of them playing. Tessa and Dexter clearly loved her. I'm excited to use her again!

The best Rover pet sitting experience I've had to date! My partner and I were out of town for two weeks over the holidays and were so fortunate that Abigail was available to check in on our cat, Matilda, while we were away. Abigail has a genuine love for the pets she cares for, demonstrated by the thoughtful and comprehensive photo/text updates she shared during each visit. Matilda isn't always the friendliest toward strangers, so we were grateful for Abigail's gentle approach in allowing Matilda to come to her and patiently build a trusting bond. It was tough to be gone and leave our baby for so long, but Abigail offered us peace of mind with the loving care she provided Matilda. We returned home yesterday to a happy and well-cared-for kitty—a testament to Abigail's reliable and affectionate service. Can't recommend Abigail more highly and we look forward to entrusting her with Matilda's care in the future!

Riley loves dogs. Plain and simple. Spending time away from her Michigan home to complete her graduate studies, means she will be missing her own three dogs. This makes Rover perfect for her, but also for you and your pet. ❤️

Mina was AMAZING. I could tell that my kitties didn't even miss me all that much. First of all, I had a last minute work trip and so the turn around time for her to come meet the kitties and get the keys was somewhat small. She made it work on a ridiculously tight schedule and I could not be more grateful! Then she went above and beyond taking care of my kitties with really good pictures and super detailed descriptions of the visit that just made me feel super good knowing they were being taken care of. One of my kitties is shy but he warmed up to Mina really quickly. I can just go on and on - she's really good at this and I will definitely book again!

Hannah has done an amazing job taking care of Rupert while we were away. She ensured that Rupert was fed, provided with water, and his litter was cleaned up. Most importantly, she spent time playing with him. We would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a helping hand!

Catherine is a patient, attentive, and diligent person. These attributes have allowed her to be an exceptional caretaker to her own French bulldog and pets of friends and family members. With her own frenchie, she has been patient during the crate, pee pad, and walking learning process, attentive to dog behavior, and diligent with rewarding good behavior and redirecting unhealthy ones to foster positive and loving environment. Additionally, she is caring with pets and respects and honors the standards set by owners.

I cannot praise Anna enough for the exceptional care she provided to my dog while I was away. From the very start, Anna connected with my dog, showing genuine affection and understanding of his quirks and routines. Every update from her was filled with delightful details that made it clear just how much fun they were having together. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pet was the best welcome I could ask for. Anna is not just a dog sitter; she's a godsend to any pet parent. I'm truly grateful and can't wait to book her again!

Evie was amazing while watching our cat for the week. We were out of town for 6 days, which Evie came twice a day. She was always punctual, very caring towards our cat, and provided constant updates during her visits. I would definitely recommend Evie to anyone who needs their pet watched!
