Brittany was truly wonderful, very communicative and sent lots of pictures and updates while I was away. I was a little nervous with this being the first time using rover but she exceeded expectations and took great care of my pup! Will definitely be requesting her again for stays when traveling.

Nichole was amazing! Great communication and gave us plenty of pics while we were gone to let us know our pups were well taken care of. We’d definitely like to have her be our regular sitter.

Kelly was terrific. Our dogs liked her as soon as she stepped in the door. She was responsive and kept us informed about how they were doing. Our older dog is easy but our puppy is at a challenging age. Everything seemed to go well and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kelly.

Elisa was the perfect dog sitter when we went out of town for four days! She was extremely communicative, sent lots of photos and even left the house cleaner than when we left. With going out of the country, Elisa kept our mind at ease and we were able to enjoy our vacation. We cannot recommend Elisa enough and will definitely be using her again! She really is one of a kind !!

Alexandra took great care of our dog and bunny! She was very responsive and sent lots of photos. I would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies (big or small). Our blue heeler is very skiddish around new people, but Alexandra made sure to comfort us and give Skye the extra care she needed. Our place looked great when we returned and we would use her again!

Stacey was great and we look forward to using her again in the future! She was easy to communicate with and was very responsive. She took great care of our pups and our house while we were away. We got lots of pictures of our pups and I felt very confident they were in good hands. She was patient with one of our pups who can take a bit to warm up to new people. She was extremely respectful of our home and left it in excellent condition. She brought in packages for us and even offered to water our plants.

Once again, Robin and Ahmed exceeded my expectations. My cats adore them which is evident from the many pictures they send me while I am away. They left the house in tip top condition — would hardly know they were there for a week. I highly, highly recommend them! Your babies will be safe and well cared for and your time away worry free.

Simon is a fantastic caretaker to my active terrier, Archie. You won’t find a more conscientious individual. Your dog will receive his total attention and relish in long walks (Simon always gets his 10k steps a day!) plus lots of pets and cuddles.

Shelley is very kind and thoughtful! She is such a gem! My sweet senior pup warmed to her quickly (not a small feat!) and she took excellent care of my baby while I had to go away for a couple of days! So lucky to have found her! Highly recommend and will 1000% be booking again!

I can’t recommend my friend Daniel enough for Rover. He’s reliable, easy to trust, and great with animals. Daniel really cares about pets and always makes sure they’re well looked after. Whether it’s dog walking or pet sitting, he’s always on time and puts in the effort to make sure the pets are happy and safe.
