“Did a great job managing our house full of animals while we were away for two weeks. We came home to happy healthy animals, and I could tell they'd been well-cared for!”


“Mallory is so nice! She ensured that Kermit was comfortable despite fireworks and a thunderstorm in the same weekend. She sent us updates twice a day to reassure us that he was doing okay.”



“As usual, a smooth transaction/stay! We absolutely love Ashley. She is very flexible, punctual and most importantly - clean (we only do home stays). Our pup is always happy to see Ashley and enjoys her company very much.”


“Rachel was absolutely amazing! She was really great at communicating and sending lots of pictures throughout the stay. Most notably, she went above and beyond to care for my dog when she was dealing with anxiety while I was gone by going for more walks and time at the dog park. All in all, she will be my sitter of choice whenever I go out of town.”



“Another fabulous week of Blythe watching our pups! We were nervous to leave our puppy, but Blythe was amazing with her. So happy to have someone we trust in our home when we can’t be there!”


“Highly recommend Emily’s services!! She made our senior dog so comfortable during her 4 day in home pet sitting. We received daily updates & pictures, and we could tell how much our dog enjoyed spending time with her! It can be nerve wracking leaving a senior dog at home, but we were never worried about our dogs care and safety while we were gone and Emily was with him.”


“10 stars needed! ❤️ left Keisha w/ a huge task!! She went above and beyond from every aspect ~ so accommodating… most importantly~ she took great care of the high maintenance rugrats and notably after being gone for 4 days ~ I know the dog didn’t leave the place spotless 😉 I’m a 1st timer on this app so I was anxious prior to our initial meet and great, having a stranger in your house and trusting them with your little loves was new for me.. No worries were needed… it couldn’t have been a more perfect experience!! ❤️”


“Lynette was terrific with our dogs. One of our dogs is blind and the other one had been turned down from a doggy daycare for not being friendly enough. She spent time with them and sent us pictures of both of them in her lap sleeping. We have already talked with her about watching them again in March. Great job!! and great service.”


“Maiah is great and my dogs love her! Rebooking her again!”



“I'm not sure how I can begin to describe how much of a relief it was to have Jamila caring for my two dogs for a week. Not only did she make sure that they were taken care of as if they were her own, she also provided extra peace of mind with daily pictures (which I loved)!”


“Did amazing”


“Liz was wonderful! Excellent communication. This was my first time using Rover and she made for an amazing first experience. I will definitely use her services again.”


“Berenice is fantastic! Sends lots of updates and pictures of my babies while we were away. Cleaned up after herself which wasn’t necessary. I felt comfortable being away knowing my dogs were taken care of. 10 out of 10!!”


“Jen has been so responsive and communicated with us during the process of hiring a pet sitter from Rover for the first time. More importantly she did a phenomenal job caring for our pets. We will definitely request her again!!”


“Alex was a great person to have watch our dog. He made sure she was walked, fed and protected when she was scared that we were not here. He is a kind and respectable man. He even made sure that any dishes he used were ran thru the dishwasher before he left. We will definitely look to have him sit for us again when we are out of town again.”


“Hannah did an excellent job with our Furry Herd! Taking care of four dogs is no picnic, but she handled it like the pro she is. She even made it sound like fun! :) We think it is, but not everyone agrees with us, so we were happy Hannah did. She stayed in contact, let us know about a minor problem one of the dogs had, and kept us informed and happy. Thanks, Hannah!”


“Ive had Sam over twice now to watch my fur baby. My dog loves her and I never worry about her while Im gone. Shes trustworthy and communicates well while im gone. I will definitely use her again”


“Sarah is the best! This was the longest we’ve been away from our dog, and we came home to a happy, comfortable dog and a clean house to boot! Our vacations are always so much more enjoyable because we know Sarah is doing a killer job taking care of our pup :) thank you Sarah!”


“Kaitlyn was awesome! Immediately after requesting to book with her, she responded very quickly and kept great communication the whole time. She sent me updates throughout the stay and made me feel comfortable with leaving my dogs with a new sitter. Thanks Kaitlyn!!!!”
