1. Akiko G.
“Akiko is incredible! She’s taken care of our dog Quinten many times now and even stayed with him for a week while we were away and did an amazing job. Q is a blind rescue and can be challenging with strangers but Akiko made him and us so comfortable with lots of updates and walks! Can’t wait for her to come back! Thanks Akiko!!”
2. Elisabeth H.
“Elisabeth was so great with our puppy Alfred. We got lots of pictures of him relaxing and going on walks. Elisabeth was very punctual and professional. Would definitely recommend.”
3. Tami W.
“Tami stayed with my two cats for one week and she made my time away stress free. She was in communication multiple times daily to let me know what they were up to and sent lots of pictures. When I got home at the end of the week, the cats were relaxed and happy. No problems at all. I highly recommend Tami!”
4. Laura G.
“Laura was great! Very responsive and kept us up to date on our dog! She was very understanding when our plans changed. Would recommend and have her sit again!”
5. Elizabeth I.
“Liz was incredible. On late notice, she arranged a meeting and our frenchie loved her from the second he met her. Liz was highly professional, communicated clearly, and was thorough in her prep. We felt so confident knowing Liz was hanging with Cris. Not only did she play and keep him engaged, but she worked on training and much needed discipline work. We came home to a spotless apartment and Cris was super happy. We’d love to work with Liz again!”
6. River C.
“River did a wonderful job dog sitting our young German Shepherd, Beckett. He provided Beckett with lots of attention, care and exercise, and sent us photos and updates on a daily basis. We returned home to a happy dog and look forward to working with River again.”
7. Veronica J.
“Veronica is awesome! I needed a last minute sitter for a few hours and she was quick to respond and help me out. My dog loved chilling with her.”
8. Monica B.
“Monica stayed at our house for several nights and she was wonderful with our dog, Mack! We received several daily updates with photos and it was clear that she was keeping him well exercised and entertained. She communicated very quickly with any issues that came up and left the house in excellent condition. We felt very reassured that Mack was in such good hands. We look forward to using her again.”
9. David S.
“David was wonderful. We have two big dogs, one that can be high maintenance, and he was great with them- we felt at ease being away with them in his care. He was very responsive in communication as well.”
10. Caroline F.
“Caroline was a wonderful communicator and took such great care of our house and our fiesty yet delicate dachshund Lucy! This was our first time using a new sitter in several years after having the same sitter for many years prior who unfortunately moved further away, so I was very nervous to try someone new - Caroline eased all my nerves after day 1 with her great, thorough updates, and we already have her booked for our next trip this month!”
11. Julia C.
“Julia house sat for us and was fantastic in terms of communication, taking care of our cats, keeping the house clean, and treating the space with great respect. Thanks Julia for being awesome!”
12. Christina C.
“Christina was great! She was super attentive to the instructions we provided, sent daily updates and photos, and helped clean the place before she left.”
13. Sarah G.
“Sarah was by far one of the best sitters we’ve had through Rover. She was amazing with Charlie. He is a two year old puppy who weighs 55lbs and has a lot of energy. She took him on long walks, played fetch with him in the park, and updated us with photos from time to time. Highly recommend having Sarah look after your pet. I will be reaching out to her again in the future.”
14. Lucy Z.
“Lucy has been extremely thoughtful and considerate taking care of Nala - she’s gone out of her way to make sure she understands everything Nala needs and takes amazing care of her and of the apartment. Thank you!!”
15. Rongrong L.
“Such a great sitter for my boy! Came for a meet&greet a few days before. He has some separation anxiety, but she was able to calm him right down by sitting with him and holding him. Sent many pictures and videos night of. Was reassuring throughout and I could tell she genuinely cared. Flexible with arrival and departure, generally accommodated for my setup/logistics. Would book again”
16. Kevin B.
“Kevin is a conscientious and compassionate human who cares deeply about animals. I have witnessed him interacting with various animals for the first time, as a "stranger," and all were able to quickly warm up to him and trust him. I have seens both cats and dogs fall asleep in his lap, including one cat who knew him well and loved to sprawl out with her belly all the way exposed, totally trusting him! In addition to cats and dogs, Kevin has experience caring for tropical fish, coral, hermit crabs, and reptiles; he is a true animal lover and I would trust him with my pets again any day!”
17. Eric C.
“Eric was wonderful with my pup! He spent lots of quality time with the pup, and he consistently shared updates and pictures of their fun. I’m looking forward to the next time Eric gets to sit with Tucker.”
18. Christopher G.
“Wow my words can’t explain how wonderful Chris took care of my sweet Coco. The way he treated her was fantastic and i trust him with my sweet baby.”
19. Cleopatra S.
“Cleo was absolutely wonderful with our pit/shepherd mix and she took great care of our home while we were gone. We got regular updates and it was clear that our dog was thriving! We would absolutely work with her again.”
20. Loretta G.
“We really appreciated how responsive and communicative Loretta was from our first interaction on Rover. It was an added bonus that our anxious chigi (chihuahua corgi mix), Rudy, warmed to her quickly. We felt at ease leaving for several hours shortly after she met him. She sent us pictures from their walk around the neighborhood which was really nice. Rudy seemed very content when we returned home which was also great. We will definitely hire Loretta again!”
