1. Aicha F.

“Aicha did very well with our dogs. They seemed to like her after they got to know her. And when our outing lasted longer than we expected she offered to stay later till we got back. We will look her up next time we are in the area. Highly recommended.”


2. Abreena W.

“Abreena goes above and beyond!! We are so grateful for the care she gave to our 3 cats over a long trip away and would love to have her sit again next time we go out of town!”


3. Melinda L.


“Mel took exceptional care of our house and dog over Easter weekend. She checked in with us often and sent adorable photos to fill us in on their adventures. We’ll definitely be booking her again!”


4. Angelica G.

“Angelica did a great job watching our 3 pets! My husband and I were camping and didn't have much service, so I was a little nervous about communication - however, Angelica was a pro and didn't complain about our spotty coverage!”




5. Ashley R.

“Wonderful sitting for our lil senior pup! Ashley took great care of our pup and we really appreciated the text updates. Highly recommend and would absolutely book her again!”


6. Kerstin T.

“Had to spend several days away from my high-maintenance elderly Ella, and Kerstin managed her well. Came home to a happy and rested old girl, and I’m grateful!”


7. Anna L.

“Anna was great with Bear! She hung with him all morning while we were out of the house and provided us with pictures and updates. She was also great at communicating with us ahead of watching Bear. We’ll definitely use Anna again :)”


8. Dustin W.

“I am so glad that I booked Dustin! He is a very genuine and nice person. He took great care of Monty and sent adorable photos of their adventures. Dustin stayed in our home and took great care of it. He even laundered the bedding for us. We appreciated that surprise when we got home from our trip! I highly recommend booking him for an in-home stay! We will definitely be seeking him out again for future sits!”


9. Olivia C.

“Olivia was fantastic. She watched over our two cats in our home over a 10 day period while I was recovering from surgery in another city. She was attentive, responsive, and gave us so much peace of mind while going through a very stressful process and recovery. We came back to a spotless house and two very happy and loved cats. Would absolutely recommend her as a sitter.”


10. Jill D.
“Jill is super active, exudes positivity and has a true love for animals. She has an awesome confident “let’s adventure!” energy that the dogs really seem to respond to. Our dog Jack is missing a paw and wears a prosthesis on walks, and we were worried about finding someone who could manage that. Jill takes him on walks, plays with him, handles his prosthesis with no issue and allows him to be part of the pack. I know that Jack is in great care with Jill because he runs full speed into her open arms every time he sees her (plus she sends lots of photos)!”


11. Natalie G.

“Natalie is fantastic! During our meet and greet, she paid lots of extra attention to my pup, while also asking good questions about my house and my pets' routines. She sent me great updates during her stay and left my house in pristine conditions. Thank you, Natalie!”




12. Natalie O.

“Natalie was amazing! I felt so safe leaving my two kitties in her hands. She gave me through updates and pictures every day, including how they were eating and general activity levels. I could tell my cats really enjoyed having her there. She also went above and beyond cleaning my place before she left! Safe to say I’ll be booking with Natalie again ☺️”


13. Vannessa B.

“Vanessa was great. She came over prior to sitting to meet us and our dog. She communicated constantly throughout the stay and sent a ton of pictures. She reached out with questions and concerns. Our dog was happy and cared for while we were gone. We will definitely be rebooking with her again!”


14. Brittany C.

“This was by far one of the best experiences I have had. I have two pups 1 and 2 years of age. My 15lbs Chihuahua pug mix is a little leash reactive. My two yr old hound mix is extra excited! I was so nervous about boarding them. I so happy I looked at Roover who background checks people! A pet sitter mades more sense but I was worried my dogs might be too much for some people. Or I might be asking too much for 5 walks a day, about 3.5 hours total. I reached out to Brittany because the price seemed fair and competitive with local kenal boarding places. She wanted to do the meet and greet 2 days before my trip. I expressed I'd like to meet sooner in case it's not the right fit. She was very flexible and met me the next day! That was huge because it took this massive worry away the week before my first trip away from them. She confirmed with me the day before and she was soooo punctual at 630am the day of, it was impressive....better than myself that's for sure! She constantly sent pictures of their walks and them snuggling. I didn't even have to request them. I'd look at my phone and have 6 pictures of their activities. It made me smile. I felt more at ease and relaxed knowing they were getting awesome care! I was never once worried about. That's huge. She left a few hours earlier than my return flight. Right before I boarded my short 2 hr flight home She had another sitting right after mine. Then my my flight was suddenly delayed, after I had boarded! The woman next to me on the plane is telling me horror stories of similar situations that turned into hours and eventually over night! I let Brittany know it was delayed by only 30 minutes, not telling her the stories I am hearing. She said if it's crazy delayed she can go back to check on them. In that moment that was exactly all I needed to hear. This was only my first business trip. There will be more. I plan on asking Brittany first if she is available. My house is as clean as I left it, she took out the trash and stripped the bed. Those small things matter when you you've had a long day and just want to play with your pups after being gone from them for 36 hours! Highly recommended!”


15. Sari S.

“Sari was truly outstanding! I am VERY picky about my sitters as a fellow Rover sitter and owner of several doggos who are my whole world. Sari exceeded my expectations from the moment I started communicating with her. She responded promptly, scheduled a meet-and-greet, took note of the behavioral tendencies of my pups, and dealt with various last-minute changes to the schedule. I felt very very comfortable leaving all of the pups with her and appreciate her flexibility and compassion for animals. HIGHLY recommend.”
16. Waymon (Mooney) G.

“Waymon was great!! Our original sitter was a no show and Waymon saved us and our trip. He was available for us on such short notice and provided us with lots of photos and updates to keep us at ease and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend!”


17. Ryan B.

“He was able to watch our dogs on a last minute request! Our dogs were in great hands and kept in contact about how our dogs were doing. Highly recommend!”


18. Chynna L.

“This is our second time having Chyna house sit. We are appreciate the picture updates, and it is clear our dog and cat love to be spoiled when Chyna comes!”


19. Darlina K.

“Darlina was amazing with our babies! She provided tons of updates throughout the sitting along with photos on how everyone was doing. She provided the dogs tons play time and walks. We would definitely recommend Darlina to our friends and families.”


20. Holly C.

“Another amazing pet sitting experience with Holly in the books! She took stellar care of my 2 cats and our senior dog. Our dog is a rescue with a history of abuse, and Holly took so much time and care learning what makes our doggo feel comfy. Holly is always communicative and thorough, and it’s an incredible relief to be able to leave town without worry. Thank you, Holly!”
