1. Jada H.

“We love Jada! Just wrapped up a 6 night house-sitting stay and we came back to a super chill and relaxed cat who generally has a lot of separation anxiety :D Really appreciate Jada's prompt response times and daily updates; we never have to worry that our best guy is well taken care of. She keeps the place neat and tidy as well, and we will continue to re-book. If you're in need of a great pet care recommendation in Brooklyn look no further than Jada!”


2. Jennifer U.


“I’m so glad I found Jennifer on Rover! For the past decade I’ve always boarded my older but active Pitt Bull Paloma when I went on vacation and she really didn’t like going. I always dreaded dropping her off. Jennifer house-sat her for 4 days on my most recent trip and she did an excellent job, getting to know Paloma first and being slow and gentle until Paloma became comfortable with her. She seems so much happier getting to stay at home and keep her normal routine. I have already booked Jennifer for another trip!”


3. Amanda M.

“Amanda was a fabulous cat-sitter! She took great care of our cat and our home while we were away for a week. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone, and will be asking her to cat sit again next time we need someone.”


4. RACHELLE W.

“Awesome sitter! She was great with our dog Cecil. He suffers from separation anxiety and she was so good with him. She sent updates and we are so happy we found Rachelle.”


5. Lana C.

“Lana was punctual, friendly and comforting. We can tell Rocky was comfortable with her from the start. This short stay made us feel confident in our upcoming booking with Lana for a few nights. Thank you Lana for coming to meet our Rocky!”


6. Amy J.

“Amy took amazing care of our. She watched her overnight, fed her, walked her, and sent photo updates. Would love to have Amy watch our dog again.”


7. Maria R.

“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!”


8. Jennifer G.

“Jennifer is a great cat & house sitter! She took care of my elderly cat who requires epilepsy meds 3x a day. She provided daily updates and cute photos. And she was also very patient with our new home (we just moved and discovered that it floods when it rains, which it did when we were away). Thank you!”


9. Marie M.

“Marie was so wonderful housesitting my two cats! She was super communicative, providing tons of updates and photos of two very happy kitties. My apt was well cared for as well. She is clearly very tuned in to the nuances of cats and honestly I don’t think she charges nearly enough for the experience and value she provides. She could double her rate and she’d be worth every penny. Will absolutely rebook her the next time I’m out of town. Thank you!!”


10. Ren H.

“ren took great care of my very energetic dog. i felt totally comfortable and received several updates throughout the day. thank you SO much for taking such good care of my girl 🌸”


11. Holly H.

“Holly did a wonderful job sitting for our cat Dolly again. She is so on top of everything and very communicative. She took great care of Dolly and our home.”




12. Celine D.

“I was so relieved to leave Mouse in the very capable and caring hands of Celine! She was excellent with communication and I felt very comfortable having her in my home while I was away. Definitely rebooking!”


13. Victor J.

“Victor was very communicative, always responding very quickly. He made himself available to go over all the details for his 6 night stay and eased my concerns. When I was away, he checked in with updates and photos and was completely transparent about everything. He also seemed to genuinely enjoy my two big dogs, which he was able to wrangle with ease. I would definitely book with him again!”


14. Maxwell F.

“On time, met Moon is advance, and was super respectful of the care document I left. I would have liked a few more pics, but I won't doc a star since I hadn't specifically said that before hand. The pictures I did get were lovely and Moon was well taken care of.”


15. Alexandra A.

“Alexandra was very communicative, flexible, and timely. She arrived early for our pre-booking meeting and on the morning of her stay. She sent lots of updates with photos! We will definitely book with her again.”


16. Dave Q.

“Dave dog sat for us and he was incredibly attentive and wonderful with our dogs, they loved him! He left our house just as clean if not better after he left. We are usually nervous to use someone new, but will 1000% use Dave to dog sit again!”




17. Elliott M.

“Elliot was so great Rambo! I lm always nervous about my dog with new people. These two got along like old pals. Highly recommend.”


18. Ashanti W.

“Ashanti was great with my dog! Communication was great and my dog seemed very happy!”


19. Noelle C.

“There are not enough words to fully express how amazing our experience with Noelle has been. From our very first interaction with her scheduling a time for her to pick up keys, she has been warm, professional, responsive, and wonderful to work with. In addition to her 5 star rover reviews she gave me the phone numbers multiple other references who vouched for her glowingly. After having her over to walk our dog and feed our pets a few times, we just had her stay at our house for 3 nights with our one year old dog and 2 rambunctious cats. SHE DID AMAZING. Perfect communication the entire visit, handled all the intricacies of feeding and caring for each pet like a pro, and the house was so clean and nice when we got home, and our pets so healthy and happy. Noelle is a neighborhood treasure, and if you need any further reassurance, she will give you my phone number and I’ll glow about her as a phone reference. My husband and I are extremely selective about who cares for our pets and who we trust in our home when we are away. Noelle exceeded all expectations, and takes better pictures of my pets than I do lol”


20. Desiree J.

“Desiree was amazing with our Pomeranian! Very easy to communicate with about the stay and respectful of our house/ belongings. Would definitely book her again!”
