“Kacy is fantastic! I was a nervous first time Rover user and she helped me feel comfortable by being responsive, flexible, and very kind. She sent tons of updates while we were out of the country for over a week. My high anxiety dog and skittish cat loved her. Would definitely book with Kacy again!”
2. Meghan F.
“Meghan was great, she took care of my cats like her own and was sending updates with pictures throughout her stay. Highly recommend”
3. Layla G.
“I would highly recommend Layla! She is so sweet and did a great job watching our crazy hyper puppy. We went out of the country for 5 days and she sent me updates with pictures up until we didn't have service anymore. The moment we got back in the country she gave an update about the whole week with more pictures!”

6. Tara M.
“Tara was fantastic! I went out of the country and I was calm and assured that she was with Tara. She spent plenty of time with her and even bought her new toys! Anna was in great shape when I got home. House was clean and kept up while gone. I tried to re-book her already but she wasn't available, but I will definitely be using her again in the future! Thank you!”

“Davis was amazing with our 3 crazy dogs and the cat. She sent a ton of pics and videos which was so appreciated! I will definitely be using her again!!”
8. Brooke W.
“Brooke saved the day by being available last minute to help us while our dog was unable to be in daycare. She communicates very well and I love how sweet she has been about our puppy! We are super happy with her help.”
9. Hailey H.
“Hailey was amazing with our very nervous, fear-reactive rescue Mars. Mars doesn’t like most people in general so we were thrilled that she was able to get comfortable with Hailey. Hailey sent us lots of photos and updates which helped lessen our worries about Mars. (Which, in all honestly were more about MARS’ behavior, not Hailey! Our dog can be a jerk. ) So happy to have found her.”
10. Maria R.
“RosZ was happy and healthy. Mia kept in touch everyday and sent pictures. This was the first time leaving RosZ so it was so stressful. But she put us at ease. We will use her again. Thank you for making our trip so memorable.”
11. Katherine S.
“Katherine was great! She watched our home and two German Shepards for 17 days and provided daily updates, pictures and videos of our dogs on walks and playing. When we got home the house was just as we left it and we were very pleased with her service! We would love to hire her again when our next trip comes up!”
12. Ciera M.
“Ciera was lovely to have house sit for my cat! She took such good care of him and had great communication. I came home to a clean space and a very happy kitty!”
13. Rebecca F.
“Rebecca was AMAZING! Her communication was spot on. We have never left our Aspen with anyone outside of family and close friends, so we worried how this would work. Rebecca was able to do a meet and greet, we felt totally comfortable from the minute she walked in the house. Aspen took to her right away.”
14. Mary-Claire M.
“Mary-Claire has a huge, sensitive heart and easily bonds with animals! She loved our sweet little Annie (miniature Poodle) and took good care of her (walks, feeding, and affection).”
15. Hannah T.
“Hannah was the absolute best sitter! Our dogs were happy, the house was tidy. We greatly appreciated her constant updates and photos of our fur babies to help give us peace of mind. Will definitely book with Hannah again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”
16. Megan F.
“I just recently met Megan and asked her to dog sit my three animals for me. She did a phenomenal job and being able to handle my all too wired Australian shepherd and my puppy. She sent me pictures, asked before giving them treats, gave me up an update on when she let them out and what they did. She also sat around to play with them during the day to give them company. I was throughly impressed and will be using her services again!”
17. Jen C.
“Jen is an amazing dog mom as well as a dog foster mom! She will go leaps and bounds to make sure a dog is well taken care of and in a sweet safe home. She is the reason I rescued my sweet dog Bonnie and she has helped so many pups find their forever home! She loves all dogs unconditionally and will always make sure they have outstanding care. I highly recommend her for Rover!”
18. Jackie C.
“Jackie was great while watching our dogs and house. She helped us out on short notice and our dogs had so much fun that they were looking for her after she left. Highly recommend Jackie for looking after your fur-children”
19. Savannah B.
“Savannah was very easy to communicate with and sent me tons of updates with photos to make me feel at ease! She was also super patient with my super anxious pup. I’d 100% book again!”
20. Sarah S.
“My two old lady dogs are stuck in their ways and sometimes not the most social with new people, but they love Miss Sarah! She has a calming presence that animals react positively to and that gives me peace of mind any time she has cared for them. She is reliable and responsible and a lover of all animals. I always trust she is doing more than the bare minimum when it comes to caring for my dogs.”
