“Great job! She was on time and spent the full time with my babies. I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care”
“There are not even words for how wonderful of a pet sitter Sarah is! This was my first time using rover and I was very hesitant but Sarah has gained life long customers. Our cat is hesitant of newcomers and took right to her. She is so attentive and sends the best in detail daily updates with adorable pictures. I can’t recommend her enough and we are so thankful to have found her on rover!”
“Was beyond great! Loved the updates and Kaitlyn helped me in a pinch for a last minute two visits. Cannot thank her enough for being a life savior!”
“Awesome sitter! I felt like I left my cars in the care of friends. Thank you for letting me feel safe leaving my cats in your care ❤️”
“Katie did a great job with my very skittish kitties. Katie was patient and kind she took the time to let them come to her on their terms. I will be using her again in the future. Thanks again….”
“Bekka watched my two cats while I was away. One of my cats has some separation anxiety, but thanks to Bekka when I returned he seemed such calmer and happier than he usually does when I go away. She took great care of both cats. I highly recommend Bekka as a pet sitter!”
“We are so happy we discovered Rover, and Rachel! During our initial meeting at our house, our cat took an instant liking to her (usually he hides under a bed when unfamiliar people arrive), and it was clear that Rachel has a special bond with animals. When we left on our trip, we knew that Oxbow was in good hands. After each of Rachel's three drop-in visits, we received cute photos and messages. We were happy to see Oxbow looking so relaxed and content, and we didn't even feel guilty about leaving him! Rachel even took care of a small maintenance problem that occurred at our house, again putting our minds at ease. Unlike other trips, Oxbow didn't even cry when we returned home. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rachel, and will certainly be using her services again.”
“Amanda is a kind and caring person. My kitties were well cared for. Therefore, I was able to relax while away and not worry about my precious kitties. I am eternally grateful for ROVER and Amanda and the services that they provided. Thank you! ❣️🐾❣️🐾❣️”

“Very happy with Nicole's cat sitting for my three boys! She was consistent with updates, both notes and pictures daily! I felt better knowing when she checked in and that she provided details about their petting, play times or if they were shy that day. I always miss them terribly when we're on vacation but Nicole made it a lot easier to be away from them. Very prompt replies too if I ever sent a message. Would use her services again! Thanks Nicole!”

“Amanda is amazing!!!! She was very prepared, respected the home and took very good care of my animal. I am looking forward to using her in the future.”
“Jeremy was an amazing sitter for our cats. He came first to make sure he got acquainted and knew where everything was. He went above and beyond to take care of our cat when she got sick while we were away and was incredibly responsive and attentive. He also took our trash out to the curb and back each week! Will definitely rebook with Jeremy.”
“Very well done! My girls were taken care of and Happy to have Michaela’s attention😁”
