“Christina is amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is kind, warm, responsible, a fantastic communicator… the list goes on. My family was away for a week from our elderly sick pup and our newer pup and she not only handled it well - she probably did better than we do! We will use her again and hope to see her again just because she’s that great!”

7. Amina E.
“First background I left my 14 year old bossy quirky pup at home in Amina’ care. As a 14 year old Jude has a few medical issues but is still fairly healthy but does require a couple of meds daily as well as special diet. Amina did an incredible job in caring for Jude. Truly he looked better than when I left him😊! She daily provided updates and pictures. When she had a question, she was quick to ask! I would not hesitate to have her pup sit again. Definitely removed my stress in leaving Jude for a week!!”
8. Jennette H.
“Jennette stayed with our cat and dog during our 4-day trip to Disney World. I am always very nervous about being a plane ride away from my animals, but after the first day, I felt like they were in very good hands. Jennette is very kind and communicative.”

13. Sierra B.
“Sierra house sat for my husband and I when went away for a weekend and couldn't bring our cat and small senior dog. Sierra was phenomenal. Our senior dog can be a little more high-needs, with more frequent potty breaks (even some throughout the night), and some medication needs during meal times. We could tell that Sierra prioritized our pets, their needs, and making sure they were well cared for. Sierra kept us in the loop the entire time and was great with communication. We look forward to using Sierra in the future!”
14. August G.

“Amazing sitter! Left me through updates with lots of pictures. Was very loving to my pup. Will definitely book again!”
17. Lexi V.
“Lexi was an absolute delight- extremely communicative, kind, and went above and beyond. Our two dogs absolutely adored her and she did such an amazing job being so attentive and loving - we were a bit nervous as we didn’t have the greatest experience with a previous rover sitter, but we felt at ease 100% of the time while on vacation knowing our dogs were in good hands!”
18. Matheo R.
“Matheo has been a family friend for a while now. He is great with people and even better with pets. You can tell he loves pets and being around them as he shows a lot of attention to his own, as well as when he has babysat and walked mine. My dog loves him alot”
19. Coral P.
“Coral has watched my three standard poodles for years. She is a trustworthy honest caregiver. She has always loved my dogs as if they were her own. I I feel so secure leaving town when I know that Coral will be there with my animals while I’m away.”
20. Ashley G.
“Ashley was fantastic with our high energy, 1 year old German Shepard mix (Lola). She house-sat for us from Thursday through Monday. As a Rover sitter myself, I have a high standard for the people that watch and care for my dog. I was a little unsure since she was just getting started on the platform and didn’t have a lot of reviews, but we are really glad we gave her a chance. Her schedule was somewhat limited some of the days we needed her, but she was transparent ahead of time and proactive about offering/working out arrangements with her family to drop in while she wasn’t around. Her dad was amazing as well and Lola got plenty of exercise and attention and wasn’t alone for long at all! Ashley was kind, respectful and responsible and treated our house with a lot of care. She paid attention to all our instructions, and Lola really seemed to barely miss us at all. Ashley also has a passion for photography and took a bunch of great photos. We have already begun discussing our next trip and if she can stay with Lola again!”
