“Dave kept us updated on Zola with lots of pictures! They had so much fun together and he was so great with Zola from the time of the meet and great to the sitting!”

“Kristen definitely has a passion for all furry family members. She will provide all the attention they need to make their day better when their owners are away. Rest assured, your dogs/cats will enjoy having her around, therefore owners can enjoy their time away.”

“Truly such a great sitter. My cat doesn’t trust many people easily and she loved Caroline. She went above and beyond to make sure she took as best care of my Pearl. Couldn’t be happier!”

“Leave home with confidence that Michelle will take loving, individualized care for you family’s dogs! Knowing she is caring for our 4 dogs is so reassuring and allows us to enjoy leaving them in Michelle’s care!”

“Devin helped us out with our two pets (1 large dog, 1 cat). She did an exceptional job with taking care of our pets’ needs, which included administering medication to our cat and walking our dog. We will definitely keep working with Devin in the future!”

“Zoe really helped us in a pinch - with short notice - checking in on our cat for a whole week. She was thorough in her visits and really patient with our shy girl, making friends with her by the end of the week ☺️ she went above and beyond in caring for her…will definitely use her again in the future!!”

“Emily was an excellent sitter while I was away on work travel. She took amazing care of my cat, Rosco and was super communicative throughout her visits! I would highly recommend ♥️”

“Keely was great and did amazing with Ruby. This was just a drop in for her to get to know her for future jobs. Keely was very thorough in asking what her needs are and making sure she was prepared. Looking forward to having her watch Ruby in the future.”

“Drew was AMAZING!! He’ll definitely be my first call the next time that I need care for our dog. He kept me updated the whole weekend and sent me tons of pictures. My dog seemed SO happy!! Drew also took him on several walks, which helped a TON because our dog has so much energy. We couldn’t have been happier with Drew. He was the BEST!!”

“Christa was a great caretaker for our cat. Kept to schedule, was prompt with first arrival, and sent us plenty of follow-up photos and texts. We will definitely hire her again!”

“I cannot recommend Melissa highly enough! If you're looking for a pet sitter who will treat your furry friends like family, look no further. Melissa's care and attention to detail exceeded all of my expectations. From the moment I reached out to Melissa, I knew my pets would be in good hands. Her communication skills are impeccable, always prompt and thorough. She took the time to learn about my pets' routines, quirks, and preferences, ensuring they felt comfortable and happy in her care. During her visits, Melissa went above and beyond to provide not only the essentials but also plenty of love and companionship. She sent regular updates and photos, giving me peace of mind while I was away. It was evident that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with my pets, and they adored her in return. What truly sets Melissa apart is her professionalism and dedication. She treated my home with respect, adhering to any specific instructions I provided and leaving everything neat and tidy. I felt completely at ease knowing that Melissa was looking after my pets and home with the utmost care. Melissa's passion for animals shines through in everything she does. Whether it's a quick check-in or an extended stay, she consistently delivers top-notch service. I am beyond grateful to have found such a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter, and I wouldn't hesitate to book her again in the future. If you're searching for a pet sitter who will treat your beloved pets like royalty, Melissa is the one for you. Thank you, Melissa, for being a true lifesaver and for giving me peace of mind during my time away. You're simply the best!”

“From his childhood dog, Murph to his office companion, Coco, Dean has spent years caring for dogs. He’s never met a dog on his frequent walks in the neighborhood who doesn’t bend an ear or offer a paw to his request to pet, scratch or shake. Trustworthy and with an attention to detail, you can expect your pet to feel loved and cared for by Dean.”

“As others here are saying, Ruth was *really* great--my somewhat shy, standoffish cat quickly and visibly warmed to her (she had a very gentle, low-key way of introducing herself to him). It was a relief to have her checking in on him. As to logistics: she was extremely quick and precise in answering messages, and very patient and flexible with the multiple times I had to tweak my booking request (because of unforeseen travel changes on my end). The kitchen was cleaner than when I left, and Ruth also went out of the way to bring trash and recycling containers off the street, something I hadn't asked her to do but appreciate. As to keeping this skeptical little cat company: she was very perceptive; I would genuinely trust her if there were an emergency of basically any kind. She put him at ease and got him to eat (something he sometimes is reluctant to do when stressed); she must have been a very reassuring presence. I also appreciate her detailed messages and several photos in which he's rolling on his back looking fairly pleased by things. When I got back this morning he seemed in much better spirits than he normally does after I have to travel. Thank you Ruth!”

“I am writing this letter of recommendation for Faith, a student of mine, who is applying to become a dog walker and caretaker on Rover. I have known Faith for many years, and I am confident in her abilities as a pet-sitter due to her exceptional qualities and experiences. While she was surrounded by pets her entire life, Faith's passion for animals became evident when she welcomed her border collie, Bingo, into her life at the age of twelve. Faith's dedication and determination led her to teach Bingo over 100 tricks and participate in dog agility classes together. Their bond was remarkable, and they worked diligently to earn Bingo's certification as a Canine Good Citizen. Faith's history in training and understanding canine behavior truly sets her apart. Having grown up surrounded by various pets, including cats and chickens, Faith possesses years of experience caring for animals. She is equally adept at meeting the needs of cats as she is with dogs, as evidenced by her deep understanding and natural affinity for feline companions. Faith can read their behaviors, provide the necessary care, and create a nurturing environment. Her love for cats is evident through her playful interactions and patient approach, as demonstrated by her endearing relationship with her mischievous and spirited cat, Nelly. Faith is currently a proud owner of a rescue border collie named Little Pip, who exemplifies her remarkable abilities as a pet caretaker. Little Pip is well-behaved and possesses a gentle and sweet nature, a testament to Faith's training and nurturing. Her knowledge of animal behavior allows her to understand their needs and emotions, enabling her to provide the appropriate care and attention required. One of Faith's notable strengths is her ability to read animals and establish a connection with them. She is attuned to their signals and can effectively respond to their needs. Faith is both gentle and firm when necessary, demonstrating a balanced approach to handling animals. Her playfulness and enthusiasm make her an ideal companion, ensuring that pets under her care receive not only responsible attention but also a fun and engaging experience. Faith's sense of responsibility is unwavering. She takes her commitments seriously and can be relied upon to provide exceptional care to any pet entrusted to her. Her genuine love and concern for the well-being of animals drive her to go above and beyond to ensure their happiness and safety. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Faith as a pet-sitter. Her extensive experience, training, and profound understanding of animals make her an excellent candidate for this role. Faith's responsible nature, combined with her playful demeanor, guarantees that any pet under her care will receive exceptional attention and care. I have complete trust in Faith's abilities as a pet owner and am confident that she will excel in her endeavors as a pet walker and caretaker. - Katrina”

“Teresa has given great care and attention to our german shepherd on many walks in the woods and on our roadways, and provides both love and affection as well as a strong hand to keep her in control when needed. I recommend Teresa unreservedly as a great asset to the Rover team.”

“Wonderful dog walker, always on time, and genuinely cares about your pet! She helped me with walking my two Irish setter puppies while I was overseas. Very good at updating too! Reasonable price for such a good job. My two puppies absolutely love her!”

“Jack is a very caring, responsible, and personable pet sitter! There is no question that your animals will be safe and receiving lots of love from Jack! Jackson is extremely respectful of your home and is very willing to work with you based on your families specific needs!”

“Great job would book again!”

“Bridgid took great care of my two pups. She was great with the 5 year old and the 3 month old puppy too. Dependable, on time, sent pics and followed instructions. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again! Thanks Bridgid!”

“Noura has taken care of my cat many times over 1 1/2 years and is my go-to pet sitter. She's so caring, sweet, and responsible. If she was able to get my shy, anxious cat to warm up to her, she would be able to make any pet feel comfortable. Thanks Noura!”
