“Devinder is very friendly and makes sure your pet gets the care they need. My dog Sylvester is being left alone in the home for the first time since COVID started and Devinder makes him feel comfortable while I'm away. Devinder is great about sending updates and photos. Definitely booking again!”

7. Catherine C.

“This was our first time using services through Rover and we are so glad we did! Cat was absolutely amazing through the entire process keeping us well informed at each drop in.

“Elijah is the absolute best! He is one of the few people my really shy cat is warmed up too and always does an incredible job of communicating and sending cute pictures!”


10. Katherine H.

“I would recommend Katherine to any dog owner who is needing a sitter! She shared many updates with me as a nervous dog mom going out of town and even came over to meet our dog prior to the visit to allow him to get comfortable with her. We will absolutely book with Katherine again when we need a sitter.”


11. Cynthia B.

“Cynthia was a great pup-sitter, and kept me well informed with pictures and updates! Sebastian tends to be anxious and he looked like he didn’t miss a beat of belly rubs, cuddles, walks and attention. She communicated all needs and changes in behavior during my time away! She was a great sitter!”


12. Rachel D.

“Rachel is so kind and thoughtful with my River. He is usually a little standoffish with new people (even me sometimes!), but he took to Rachel almost immediately. She takes great walks with him, and great pictures of my little guy when the go on their adventures. I highly recommend Rachel as a dog walker/sitter/anything.”


13. Eula C.


“Thane was great with Rat! They took the time to understand his personality and routine during our meet and greet which put me at ease. I’d definitely hire them again :)”


14. Amanda M.


“Amanda was phenomenal with taking care of Indi while I was out of town. Indi was feeling very sick and Amanda gave consistent updates and went above and beyond to help take care of her and make sure she was as comfortable as possible. Thank you so much Amanda, will definitely be rebooking for the future!”


15. Kayley D.

“Kayley is amazing! She took such good care of my pups even though they’re a little bit on the needier side. She sent great updates and I felt so comfortable leaving my pups in her care!”


16. Steven K.

“Steven replied promptly and was extremely reliable! Our pup had a great visit with him and we had peace of mind during a long day away from home.”


17. Leanne K.

“Great pet sitter! Provided a detailed overview of what she did with my dog after each visit. Also sent lots of pictures after each visit which was great to see!”


18. Violet W.
“My dog loves Violet. It’s evident that Violet really likes the pets she cares for and I can see that difference in my dog when i come home versus how anxious he is after a kennel visit. Violet is thoughtful and communicates well with the humans of the pets she cares for. I wholeheartedly recommend Violet!”


19. Kristina W.

“Kristina somehow got our rather cranky orange cat to make an appearance! Having her come got us out of jam and made for one less thing to worry about.”


20. Kirby B.

“Thanks so much! Kirby was on time and so great with the puppy! Such a relief knowing that our puppy is getting such great attention from someone we can trust!”
