“Thanks Morgan! The nightly updates were a great addition. It was nice to know our two dogs were in good hands when we were away. We appreciate you looking over them.”
“Tyler was so communicative and active with my pup. He shared photos, updates and made sure Milton was taken care of and given the attention he needs. My place was clean when I returned and Milton told me he had a blast. I’m already booking Tyler for a second and third stay 10/10”
“Ben is absolutely fantastic! He took such great care of our Lumie girl and gave us lots of updates and pics while we were away. Definitely would recommend him as a Rover sitter!”
“Having Zapora as a dog-sitting guest in my home was a wonderful experience. I would certainly invite her to sit with Honey and Yarra any time. A fantastic experience.”
“Jacqueline is such a sweet gal! Our nugget Rocky loved her right away. Jacqueline is kind, professional and provided lots of feedback while we were out. Rocky has seperation anxiety (from his past homes) and needs a human with him at all times - Jacque was comfortable staying with him until we got back which is much appreciated. Can’t wait to have her over again!”
“Maddy takes exceptional care of our dogs and home and we’d happily recommend her to anyone. She’s communicative, kind, and responsible and most importantly, takes great care of our two dogs who can sometimes be nervous with new people.”
“Juanita is AWESOME! She is so communicative and kind and we felt so at ease knowing she was watching our dog and cat. She sends daily updates with pictures and I could tell she genuinely loves hanging out with them. So excited that we have managed to find such a great sitter and can’t wait to use her again in the future! 😊”
“Anna was absolutely wonderful with Bailey! I was away for 10 days and felt completely at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. Her communication throughout the stay was excellent. She kept me consistently updated, which made a huge difference while I was traveling. I could tell she genuinely cared about Bailey's well-being. I will 100% be reaching out to Anna again for future trips and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive rover!”
“Brookelyn is always the best! She takes such good care of my son and I never have to worry when I’m away. She’s responsible, responsive, and keeps my baby happy!”
“Marianne exceeded our expectations. We're 1st-time Rover users and she was beyond wonderful!! Pictures, excellent communication and most importantly, our 3 pets LOVED her. We would only be so lucky to have someone like Marianne help us out when we leave town. We're so so happy. 10 STARS!!!”
“Kristen was great and kept us updated especially cause we have a younger dog who is still learning and gets some anxiety. She was very nice and helpful. Thank you again!”
“So glad that Carissa was available to watch my babies for a long weekend! She was great with updates and pictures and I felt really good knowing she was there with them. She took wonderful care of my babies and my home, leaving my place so clean and nice. She’s a gem and I will absolutely use her again! Thank you Carissa! 🙏”
“Terri stayed at our house for 3 nights taking care of 2 dogs and 1 cat. She did a great job with communication, sending photos, updates, and made sure everyone was happy. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Christina was great. The cats got plenty of attention and I received multiple updates letting me know they were doing fine. It made vacation less stressful knowing someone was there with them.”
“Jackson house sat for my dogs for a long weekend and did a wonderful job. In all of the cute pics he sent you could see that my boys were nothing short of happy and healthy. Thanks Jackson!”
“STEPHANIE KNOWS DOGS!!! So thankful she cares for Gigi over the weekend. Was really grateful for her communication and friendly attitude. Went above and beyond to take care of my dog and house.”
Auraria pet parents share their Rover experiences
We are super happy with Rachel. Professional from the moment she first walked through the door. Her demeanor is confidence-inspiring and our dogs seem very comfortable with her. She updated us daily throughout our trip. In addition to taking great care of our boys, she took care of my many plants and our house was clean and ready for us when we got home.
Caroline was wonderful to watch Callie with only a week notice. She communicated daily and sent pictures with every communication so we were able to see our baby girl. She left the house just as clean as it was when she got there. It seemed like she put a lot of effort into trying to get Callie to go on walks when she can be stubborn in her old age. Overall we are happy with Caroline’s care.
Melissa is caring, conscientious, and followed instructions perfectly. She provided excellent communication and plenty of photos, so I was able to enjoy my trip without any concerns for my fur baby or my home. In addition, she was a clean and respectful houseguest. For all of these reasons, I would definitely hire her again!
Tyler was fantastic. He was super communicative, responded quickly, and did a great job caring for my senior cat. The cat has lots of supplements and medications but he remembered them all. He clearly cares for the pets and doesn’t see it as just a job. I would love to use him again and again!
Jackie was incredible! I booked her for house sitting & dog sitting my puppy while on a long trip and she did wonderful. She provided so many photo and video updates, was extremely responsive and communicative, and clearly took great care of my pup. Will definitely use her again!
We had a wonderful experience with Cathy. She took excellent care of our boys and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very caring with animals. We especially appreciated the updates and photos, which made it so much easier to relax knowing they were in good hands. The boys seemed happy and well cared for when we got home, and everything was just as we left it. We would absolutely recommend Cathy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter.
Vanessa took great care of our puppy pretzel over the weekend. She was communicative and proactive with letting us know how everything was going. She also took great care of our home! Even when we had flight delays, causing us to get back several hours later, she offered to come back and take pretzel for an extra walk! I would definitely recommend Vanessa for any pet owner!
Oceana was a great dog sitter! She stayed at my apartment for the weekend and took great care of my two huskies. She is very responsive and left the place very neat. I highly recommend Oceana to anyone looking for a reliable and caring overnight dog sitter and would gladly book her again!
Kat was great. She's clearly comfortable with dogs and took Grace's quirks in stride. Grace is a shelter pup still building trust, and Kat won her over completely by the end of the stay. The house was in good shape when I got home. Gracie would be thrilled to have her over again.
