Caroline was wonderful with my dog Sam! It was his first time spending the night without me and he had some anxiety but she handled it wonderfully and was very patient with him. I would absolutely have her sit for Sam again!

Rebecca is amazing! I would recommend her to anyone needing someone to housesit their dog. I recently lost my long time sitter to a move and I feel very fortunate to have found Rebecca so quickly. She is flexible with her timing and respectful of the space - I always get my home back exactly as I left it, and I have a happy pup on my hands :D

Caitlin is the best dog and house sitter and we had such a great experience with her!! She’s so responsible and responsive and gave us lots of updates :) our pup was happy and relaxed and clearly had a great weekend in her care. She left our apartment cleaner than when she arrived!! We can’t recommend her highly enough and will definitely reach out to ask her to watch Loca in the future!

Keslie watched my Sidney over Thanksgiving break, which was incredibly kind of her as she sacrificed time with her own family to help me out. Keslie provided picture updates, walks, and timely texts on Sidney’s progress - and overall relieved all the stress of leaving your pet loved one. I will undoubtedly be using Keslie for all my future rover bookings. I would highly recommend others to book her immediately—all positive feedback.

Avery is so sweet, accomodating, and was very attentive to Carter’s needs. Carter is special needs and has behavorial issues, but I couldn’t have been happier with how Avery took care of him. She really put my mind at ease while I was gone for the weekend. I came home to a very happy puppy! I won’t hesitate to ask her to watch Carter again!

Ken watched our German Shepherd for a weekend. He kept us updated with pictures and even administered medicine that she needed. Our girl was happy and less anxious when we got home. We would definitely recommend having Ken as a sitter/dog walker!

Sherree was wonderful with my little Winston! She sent so many photos and videos during her night babysitting him and it was obvious how much Winston loved her. She even went above and beyond and took him to Target and bought him a treat! We love Sherree and can’t wait to have her back!

Neil was a fantastic house sitter. Very communicative. Neil has been a great dog walker and this was the first time he dog-sat for me and I felt really comfortable leaving my dog for a few days even though he had an infection on his paw. Always appreciative of Neil’s Services.Neil was respectful of my personal space and was happy to find my apartment exactly how I left it.
