Angela was a fantastic sitter for our best friends. She jumped in on short notice and checked in with us regularly to let us know how things were going. It is such a relief to know we had 4 less things to worry about! Thank you, Angela!

Ozzy took great care of my cat Peanut for years! Anytime I went out of town, even for longer periods of time, Ozzy was always willing to take care of Peanut and give her all the love she deserves. Ozzy also has a knack for getting all the good angles for funny pictures of pets!

We recently moved to NY and finding Erica has been a blessing! Erica was a great communicator even before our first booking. It’s evident that our dog’s (and our own) comfort level is a priority for her. At our meet & greet she asked all the right questions and we felt confident going out of town and leaving Max with her. She has cared for him a few times now and we will continue to book her! Thank you Erica for giving us peace of mind during a transitional time!

Melissa was fantastic! She came over for a meet and greet and really hit it off with our girls. She was flexible with our schedule and communicated clearly. Melissa had no questions about the feeding and medications and sent us cute pictures! The house was very clean upon our return. We will definitely reach out to Melissa again and highly recommend her!

1st time Rover user. I cannot say enough good things about Miles. He is kind, compassionate, responsible. He sent pictures and communicated everyday. He took care of the mail and my house. I feel safe leaving my 3 boy cats with Miles, anytime. I certainly will be booking him again. Thank you, Miles.

I couldn't be happier with the care Ashley provided while house sitting for my cat and my very needy, neurotic dog. From the moment we left, it was clear that our pets were in great hands. When we returned, both our cat and dog looked so content and happy, which was a huge relief, especially since we’ve had mixed experiences with sitters in the past. Ashley kept us updated throughout our holiday with regular messages and photos, showing us just how well our pets were doing. It was evident they were not only being cared for but were genuinely enjoying their time with her. What truly sets Ashley apart is her genuine love for animals. She treats each pet as if they were her own, which is a rare quality. This level of attention and dedication made all the difference for my peace of mind while we were away. I wholeheartedly recommend booking Ashley if you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for your pets. She is simply the best!

Duncan was the best. My house is left the way he found it, pepper seems tired which means there was lots of play time. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone if you need someone to watch over your prized pups 🐾

So thankful for Emma! Our previous Rover sitter retired from pet sitting so we had been searching for a new in home pet sitter for our dog Jasmine. I looked through Rover and found Emma! Emma came to the house for a meet and greet and she was very friendly and Jasmine liked her right away. We got photos when she arrived to the house and on their walk. Text messages in the morning to let us know all was well and Jasmine slept with her. Hope she wasn’t to much of a bed hog. We will be making another trip this winter and hope Emma will be available.

Rachelle was amazing! I was very nervous leaving our dog for the weekend. He’s an anxious dog and really likes to stick to his routine. Rachelle stayed at our house with him and followed his routine. She sent lots of photos and updates to let us know how things were going, which put our minds at ease. Communication was great and our dog was a very happy pup. We’ll definitely use Rachelle again!

Cara is a wonderful pet sitter! The most important thing to know about Cara is that she truly loves animals! She took loving care of our dog for a week and we knew that our baby was in the best hands. She frequently sent us updates and photos. She made sure that our puppy was comfortable and safe and eating healthy food. We cannot recommend Cara enough! She’s a wonderful, reliable, honest person who will treat your fur baby like her own!
