Arantxa gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of town. She goes above and beyond with updates, special care to keep their routine, and gives them so much love and attention. She genuinely treats your pets like they are her own. She is the BEST! 😊

Shanda was so thoughtful to us and our pup. She came in during an emergency trip we needed to take and we could not ask for more. Her updates made us feel so comfortable. We knew Eve was safe and having a great time. Highly recommend her for any care because she will spoil your fur baby like a grandparent.

OMG! Look no farther. If you want a GREAT Rover experience then Erica is your girl. She gave updates, sent pics, helped in any way possible, communicated often and was very respectful of my home. My dogs literally looked like they took to her quickly- which they never do so this was a testament to her “vibe”. I will hire Erica any and every time I need a dog sitter and recommend you do the same! 10 ⭐️’s

Yuliia did an outstanding job taking care of our home and our beloved Wally, a 20 lb. Corgi mix. Throughout our time away, she kept us updated daily with thoughtful texts and photos, giving us complete peace of mind. When we returned, our home was spotless—just as we left it—and Wally was in great health, clearly happy and well cared for. Yuliia’s attentiveness and genuine love for animals shone through in everything she did. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again for future trips and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.

We didn’t worry at all and as a pet owner you can understand how invaluable that is:) we loved Matt, will rebook him forever in the future and recommend you book him too!!

Arturo was super communicative and enthusiastic to give our two cats the best care! He took notes beforehand of little details to remember for them and communicated throughout the sitting - we did not have to worry about our cats in his care. Arturo dealt with one of our cats medical issues very well (including giving liquid medicine 3x a day) and learned their individual quirks and played with them how they liked - Would definitely recommend hiring Arturo!

Victoria came to house and dog sit for me and she was amazing! She came the night before I left on an early morning flight and stayed on for my late arriving flight at the end of my trip. She took great care of my dog, Teddy. He felt cared for and secure. Victoria sent me daily updates and photos and I could tell he enjoyed her company. She also followed my instructions about feeding, medications, and walks. I highly recommend her - a more responsible and caring sitter can’t be found.

Tiffany is fantastic! Our girls (Lennon + Mink) loved their time with her. This was our first experience leaving them with someone they didn’t already know and Tiffany was the perfect sitter. Not only was she already communicative from the get go, but our sweet pup got gnarly hot spots the day before we left for a long weekend and we were heartbroken to leave her with an open wound and a stranger to tend to her. Tiffany was wonderful having to adapt last minute and make applying topical ointment a part of her routine with Lennon while we were gone. She monitored Lennon closely and updated us regularly. Not to mention our cat absolutely loves her. Tiffany will be our go to sitter from now on!
