Oli did a great job with our finicky dog- again! We were so glad to have her back. She sent daily updates with pics and left our house cleaner than she found it!

Elizabeth was great with our weird old dog and aloof cat. She sent lots of updates and let us know things were going well. She’s also a great house sitter. We will definitely book with Elizabeth again. Thanks, Liz!

First time we’ve ever left our cat and home in the hands of a stranger. We have learned our cat might love Rosemary more than us. ? She kept us up to date with pictures. We’ll definitely book her again.

I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.

Hallie worked as a pool attendant at my company over the summer and was a conscientious, reliable and attentive employee. This was temporary work, but when I saw that she was applying to Rover, I thought this was absolutely perfect for her. Hallie has her own pets and all of them beeline to her as soon as she gets home. She is their ‘person.’ She is a natural with them and genuinely loves all animals. She is also our go-to caregiver for our two large dogs when we go out of town. Hallie not only makes the trek to our home three times a day, but stays with them, plays with them, feeds them, and make sure they don’t feel lonely. While we only ask for her to make a quick trip to feed, and let them out, its not unusual for her to sit at the house just to be with the dogs for a couple hours each visit. She’s an amazing, caring, and heartfelt person and I can see her absolutely thriving in a position at your company!

Jordan was extremely communicative and updated me to let me know the boys (our dogs) were doing good! She also checked before having guests over which just shows how considerate she is while staying in other’s homes! We felt very safe having her there with them and really appreciated how quick she was to respond, etc. will definitely be requesting Jordan again!

Nancy’s incredibly communicative and caring when dogsitting for our 2 small pups and my mom’s small Havanese. We felt our pups were in great hands and she was easy to work with when we had some last minute changes. One of our dogs is anxious and reactive - Nancy was thoughtful and patient in meeting him which we greatly appreciative. Will definitely hire her in the future.

Katrina treated my dogs just like her own… She took the best care of them, communicated with me throughout my trip, and my gut instinct told me that they were in the best hands. For once my instincts were right! My 15 year old pitbull, Romeo, could not have been happier when I came home. He looked even younger than when I left, I swear! And my sweet and sassy and very smart pit - husky mix, Jade, was calm & serene when i came home.. I could tell that they had gotten amazing care and a ton of love. She took them on wonderful walks, whether it was raining or not, and she made sure to ask any questions that she had. I can’t think of anything that she could’ve done better… I feel so fortunate to have had her as my sitter. I don’t think I will ever use anyone else unless she isn’t available. I can’t recommend her highly enough. And as a dog groomer and vet tech for 12 years, I have high standards for care. She exceeded my standards & expectations. Thank you so much, from Romeo, Josie and Jade. We can’t wait to see you next time!

What a fantastic sitter Amber was! She was able to handle all 3 of our dogs, one of whom I am sure smothered her with affection attempts and another on the opposite end of the spectrum in that I know she had to use patience to win him over. She was able to do it all and everything in between. If our dogs could talk I know they’d already be asking when is the next time Amber is coming by. Thank you.!

Marinie did a phenomenal job watching Quasar. She kept in touch while I was away, with perfect balance of information and requesting information back from me. I had no concerns about my boy, so could enjoy myself completely.

I appreciate that when Aubrey came to meet me and my dog in advance she took notes and asked a lot of questions. My dog was obviously well taken care of from the photos, video, and updates I received. Also, I am completely blown away that upon returning my home is cleaner than I left it. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Aubrey again to care for my energetic, reactive (yet perfect?‍♀️) dog.

We booked Hannah to house sit for a whole week while we were on vacation. She took such amazing care for our pittie, Kurama, and we had zero concerns throughout the week. She sent us multiple updates throughout the day, was very communicative and took such good care of him. Not only did she stay over at our place multiple nights during the week so he wouldn’t be alone, but she also went above and beyond with the tiny things, like getting him to go potty in the rain! Thank you so much Hannah for taking care of our boy. If you need a reliable sitter, we would highly highly recommend Hannah!
