“Once again, we entrusted our energetic pooch, Truman, to Kevin's care, and once again, we couldn't be happier! Kevin's professionalism, patience, and genuine dedication to Truman shone through, just like the first time. Despite Truman's slight behavioral quirks, Kevin expertly managed him, ensuring he received the exercise and attention he needed. Returning home to find Truman relaxed and content speaks volumes about Kevin's dedication and skill as a pet sitter. Regular updates and photos kept us reassured throughout our trip. We wholeheartedly recommend Kevin to anyone seeking a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thanks, Kevin, for another fantastic experience!”

3. Chanelle W.
“I’m a Rover sitter myself. Chantelle has become my go-to sitter and my animals love her. My cat actually ran down to say hello and get pets when she came by to pick up keys before we left!”
4. Karachi O.
“Karachi took excellent care of our dogs and home. She jumped to our rescue when our flight was delayed and stayed an extra night. Highly recommended.”
5. Joseph K.
“Joseph was very grounded and calm with our anxious and reactive dogs. He won them over quickly and took great care of them. Kept in touch and sent photos regularly. When we got home the dogs were happy to see us, but obviously had also had a great time with Joseph. Would definitely ask Joseph to sit again!”
6. Anna A.
“Anna was great! She stayed at our house and watched our two older dogs for a weekend. She was so easy to communicate with before and during the booking, which we really appreciated. She kept us up to date throughout the weekend and took care of the dogs and the house. We won’t hesitate to book her again!”
7. Erin C.
“Erin is fantastic! I am so happy to have found her to help out with my pup Marley when we are in need. She is super flexible, responsive, and caring! Marley was not feeling well a few days before she was scheduled to sit him, so I double checked she would be okay to still watch him. Not only did she not have any issues, but she checked in on him until it was time for her to watch him. Throughout her stay she sent several pictures / updates. It is a stress free experience with Erin!”
8. Rakia P.
“Rakia did an amazing job!! She actually dealt with multiple unexpected crises including a gas leak in my home, and handled everything great! Was quick to communicate. I was so happy to have my dog in safe hands!”
9. Giovanna P.
“We used Giovanna for house sitting recently and she was great! She came by before the visit to meet the dogs and go over care instructions. She was on time for all her visits and took great care of my 2 very energetic dogs. We will definitely be booking with Giovanna again in the future!”
10. Joshgun A.
“Josh is an incredibly compassionate and attentive pet sitter. In sitting for our 3 senior cats, Josh routinely updated us with photos and reports throughout the day and night. Thank you, Josh!”
11. Conor B.
“I recommend Conor without hesitation.. I live in FL but have a sister in Washington DC and needed someone to watch my dog. So my request posted on Rover was confusing to many potential dog sitters. Most didn’t read my description where I explained that I was visiting my sister who lives in Washington DC. Conor read it and understood what I needed and responded on very short notice. Conor was on time, professional and personable. . If you need someone to watch your dog, stop looking: sign up Conor!”
12. Gabriela B.
“Gabby was phenomenal. I’d never left my dog with a non-family sitter before and she made me feel so comfortable. My dog can be a picky eater when she’s anxious but he ate all of his meals, which says a lot about how comfortable he felt. Major success!”
13. Lilibet K.
“Lilibet was highly communicative with questions and updates via text and she clearly provided a lot of affection and cuddles for two very needy dogs and took them on walks with photo updates. Left out apt very clean.”
14. Aida W.
“Aida stayed with our animals and was so attentive to their needs. She kept us very informed and sent lots of pics and videos. It was very reassuring to know how well they were being cared for while we were away.”
15. Sara G.
“Sara was great with both our cat and our dog. She was responsive, and sent daily updates and pictures. Both of our pets seemed very happy in her care, and were healthy and happy when we got home. She followed all of our care instructions, and was very reliable. We would be happy to work with Sara again.”
16. shamaurie S.
“Words fall short when it comes to describing how amazing Shamaurie is. I was so nervous leaving my baby alone while traveling with my roommate. He came and met our pets and they loved him instantly. He listened to all our instructions and didn't judge me at all for typing out an over-the-top guide to caring for our pets and staying in our place. I told him I was a worrier so every day he sent me updates, photos, and videos to reassure me that my cat and roomie's dog were happy and cared for. He spoiled them more than we do with walks and treats and pets! I didn't worry once! He even cleaned things he didn't have to! After our flight home was canceled, he offered TO CONTINUE pet sitting and asked if the pets were taken care of because he so genuinely cares. You want Shamaurie as your pet sitter and we feel so lucky to have met him!”
17. Kimberly M.
“Kim was absolutely perfect! She communicated very consistently while I was away & made a creative effort to get my anxious dog to eat when he wouldn’t. She also left a really cute card for me when I returned home. I felt like Tino was in very safe & capable hands. We can’t wait to book with Kim again!”
18. Bradley H.
“Had a great experience! Damien was communicative and attentive to our dogs. He seemed prepared when he arrived and was very flexible in working with our schedules. He sent photos and videos often and clearly loved our pups!”
19. Sam G.
“Sam has shown a great propensity for taking reliable care of animals since he was a young child. He’s provided trusted care for dogs and cats in his own home and the homes of friends and neighbors. He’s cared for big and small dogs and cats. He knows how to read their behavior, comfort and play with them. You can trust him implicitly with the care and safety of your pets and your home.”
