“Maria is such a gem, I’m so grateful I found her! She took care of my two dogs while I was away and everything went so smoothly. She sent so many pictures, updates, and was very flexible. Thank you Maria, so lucky my doggies have you as a friend!”


“Josepha was the most excellent dog sitter. She took really good care of Luna and she is very knowledgeable about dogs overall. She even got a few extra safety devices for her well being. She truly cares about pups. I would highly recommend her as a dog sitter. She sends tons of photos and updates and you really feel at peace and that your dog is in good hands. Definitely 5 stars and then some :). I would absolutely higher Josepha to watch Luna again.”

“Kerry was fantastic! She’s super nice and friendly. She took great care of my 4 month old puppy who can definitely be a handful. She communicated while watching my puppy with photos and updates which was great. And she was even accommodating when I was running late to get back. I will definitely book with Kerry again!”

“My family and I could not be happier with Adriana! It was our first time leaving our dogs and they were so well taken care of we thought they would be sad we were back! She communicates so well and sent us so many pics and videos of our happy pups!!”

“Brenda was a fantastic sitter for my cats! She was super communicative, shared many photos, and gave me piece of mind while I was away. She also left my apartment spotless. I will definitely book her again!!”

“Highly recommend! We had Carmen stay at our place to watch our two cats for four days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She came by beforehand to go over instructions and meet our two boys, who immediately took a liking to her. She has a great disposition for cats and they could sense it right away. While we were away, Carmen was fantastic about communicating, regularly sending photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind. She also had to give medication to one of our cats and followed the instructions carefully and confidently. When we returned, our apartment was left very clean. One of our cats unfortunately made a few messes during her stay, and Carmen was kind enough to vacuum, mop, and even wash the blankets that got dirty. We felt completely comforted knowing our cats were in such great hands and would absolutely recommend Carmen to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter”
“Zac was a great sitter for Stevie! He shared pics and kept me up-to-date while I was out of the country. I’d never used an in-home sitter but he was willing to meet up and get to know me and Stevie first. He took care of my place as well, which I appreciated so much. It was awesome to come back to a clean place and a happy pup. Would absolutely recommend and use his services again.”

“Fiona was amazing with my big sensitive rescue dog while I was out of the country for a few days. She was so responsive and thoughtful with updates and pictures while I was away and administered all of Clifford’s meds and even took him to his favorite pet store. So lucky to have found her!”

“Amanda was extremely patient with our nervous Nellie & provided us with updates throughout her stay to let us know how our pup was doing. She took great care of our apartment & even assisted in communicating with our neighbors about a package that was delivered late. Nellie had a great time & is looking forward to hanging with Amanda sometime soon!”

“She’s an angel! The dogs liked her right off the bat. She was super attentive to their needs and sent lots of pics of Barney and Cherry, which made me feel more comfortable being away from them! She also stayed with them during the thunderstorm, even though she had planned to leave because Barney was really scared. I am so grateful for that! Super happy to have found her and will book w her again! Xx”

“Mel was an incredible choice for our not only our 3 year old cat, Yara, but our home. My husband and I took our honeymoon in confidence knowing Yara was in good hands. Everyday Mel sent us videos and photos of our girl and we could tell she was so relaxed with her. Mel was incredibly responsible, responsive, and went above and beyond for us. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future if she’s available! (: Thanks Mel! - Angie & Ryan”

“Eric did a house / dog sit at my home for about a week. He was an excellent communicator and gave me great updates on how my pup, Lucy, was doing. The house was in great shape when I returned and Lucy was clearly happy and well taken care of. Would highly recommend Eric for any rover needs. Thanks!”

“Teddy was fantastic with our new puppy!! Our puppy loved them and they sent tons of photos/videos during the day. They are also great with training tips and our puppy made great progress in her training while with Teddy! We felt at ease with Teddy being in our home and will absolutely use them again for pet sitting.”

“This is the first time I used Rover, and I am so lucky to have found Torrey. Our dog was recently diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension. She was great on our first meeting and exceeded all my expectations in terms of communication. Her love for caring for animals is clear. She is also practical, respectful, and mature. She will be my go-to whenever I travel, assuming she is available.”

“Sam did a fantastic job caring for my cat and dog for nearly an entire week. She was communicative throughout with lots of photos and updates. My pets bonded with her and I am looking forward to having her back! Highly recommend!”

Zack took such great care of our dog, Miles, while we were away! He was kind, communicative, and clearly attentive to Miles’ routine. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos. It was so reassuring to see how relaxed and happy Miles looked. Zack also took wonderful care of our home and left everything absolutely impeccable. We came back to a very content pup and a spotless house. Highly recommend!

This was Luana's second time cat-sitting at my home - the first was for my senior cat (sadly no longer with us) and this time for our 5-month-old kitten who is very energetic and interactive. Luana sent photos and updates throughout the stay and when I arrived home I found my sweet baby girl calm, happy, and well-cared for. Top notch!!

We are very pleased with Max. He took care of our Labradoodle Rosie while we were away on a month-long overseas holiday. Max kept Rosie active and entertained and he sent photos and videos almost every day. Rosie has lots of curly hair, so she requires frequent grooming to keep it in check. Max did his best, 😉. Max fed Rosie exactly to our specifications. He kept our home orderly and he cleaned up after himself. We couldn't have been more pleased to come home to a happy and healthy dog and a tidy home. Five paws up! 🐶 🐶 🐶 🐶 🐶
Maggie is the best! She sat overnight for me for a week and was super communicative the whole time, plus very helpful with sharing photos and updates about my cat. She left my apartment in great shape and my pet super happy and cared for. I'm looking forward to booking her again.

Alex was fantastic with Miu and Remy. She played cat TV for Miu which he LOVES and was so sweet and patient with Remy who takes a lot of time to warm up. Her communication was great and much appreciated since I was traveling far from home. I came home to my apartment cleaner that I left it, as well! Will definitely continue to book with Alex as I travel more!

Hallie was an absolute superstar!!! Super communicative, professional, adaptive and caring! I really appreciate the way Hallie would communicate regarding questions, learning Pippa's habbits and responding to any of Pippa's needs. Unfortunately Pippa and Flash didn't get along for the full stay, but Hallie was responsive and respectful of Pippa's needs while house-sitting. If I could give more than five stars, I would!

Trisha is so good at what she does. I never feel bad about leaving my dog because he gets so excited to see her. It is such a joy to watch the videos she sends of them playing. My dog looks so happy. And when it comes to the house sitting part, Trisha leaves the house better than she finds it. I come home to this pristine place, swept, garbage emptied. It is so nice to come home to a clean house and happy dog!

Kerry was fantastic! She’s super nice and friendly. She took great care of my 4 month old puppy who can definitely be a handful. She communicated while watching my puppy with photos and updates which was great. And she was even accommodating when I was running late to get back. I will definitely book with Kerry again!
