“Scott was wonderful! He did a great job taking care of our pets and home while we were away. He tried multiple methods to give our cat her medicine and was patient and caring throughout. He also made sure our dog got regular walks and plenty of attention. He was respectful, tidy, and left the house very clean. Communication was great and we really appreciated how reliable he was. Highly recommend!”
“House, pets, and plants were well cared for. Catherine went above and beyond to make our pets feel loved while we were away. We'll definitely contact her again for our future trips.”
“We highly recommend Sparkle! She thoughtfully communicated with us throughout our trip and sent us adorable photos of our cats daily. This made leaving them for the first time slightly less daunting. She took great care of our house and our two kitties. We came home to a clean house and two healthy, happy cats. We are so fortunate to have found her and will request on all of our future vacations.”
“Tyler is one of the best Rovers I have ever booked! He followed all of my care instructions and kept me updated on how the dog was doing. The photos he sent me made me feel at ease. I will definitely book him again!”
“Skyler was great! Did an amazing job taking care of our pups and keeping the house in one piece. Communication was on point, sending updates each day. Would definitely rebook in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Jason was a wonderful dog and house sitter! We received pictures and videos regularly, which were very appreciated while we were traveling. We trusted Hazel was in good hands and the house was, too! We’d definitely have Jason watch Hazel again.”
“Corvin was a perfect and responsible pet sitter for my anxious Bunny. He sent lots of pics and updates so I felt very confident that B was in good capable hands throughout my absence. He was very respectful of my home, too. I will be rebooking w Corvin very soon in the future. Thank you so much!”
“So happy to say I came home to a happy dog and a beautifully clean home. Lucinda sent pictures of Sam and kept me informed all the way along. I certainly will use Lucinda again. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to take care of your animals.”
“Ann is amazing!! We had to leave for a last minute trip and she was so helpful and accommodating, even offering to come by the day before to meet our dogs and get the run down. She was a great communicator and our dogs were very well cared for. Would recommend her to anybody looking for a pet sitter.”
“Dey was wonderful. Reliable and communicative and took great care of my senior cat. I appreciate their grounded presence and attention to detail. I'd definitely book with them again.”
“This is the second time Ethan has stayed with my 2 doggos for a close to a week. They both love Ethan, and were happy to have them stay (well, Percy is really only happy when I'm home, but he was as happy as he GETS when I'm not around). Ethan kept my garden alive for a week during August and the house looks as good or better than when I left it. We will happily have Ethan back again the next time I go out of town.”
“Celeste watched over my 3 cats and our home while I was away. She followed all of the care instructions and was very communicative. The updates were great and all of the cats were happy upon return. Thanks again!”
“Michael is so awesome!!!! My fiance and I booked a trip for a concert, and didn't realize our hotel did not allow pets unattended and had decibel alarms. He seriously saved the day. I booked VERY last minute (8 hrs prior to sitting, and brand new to rover). Michael responded extremely quick with very clear communication. Brownie points for the bathory shirt for sure. My pup is anxious and hasn't had to stay with a stranger like this and he seemed to do great w Michael. We got plenty of updates, and again super clear communication about our pup! He really did so amazing and we could tell our lil guy was happy after being in his care :) THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!”
“River was patient and kind with our two dogs. She followed all directions perfectly. Was a wonderful house guest and communicator. Our shy dog even warmed up to her by day two.”
“Kai is the best! Thank you for taking such good care of my girl, including giving her meds and keeping her well-fed. We’ll definitely book again, she adores you :)”
“Tayler is a gem! She took great care of both our kitty and our house! Returned home to a well adjusted pet and a super clean house. I'd recommend her to anyone!”
“Donna is wonderful as always. She is the best sitter I have ever found! Siena, our dog, is always in high spirits when we come home and the house is even better than we left it.”
“This is my second time working with MacKenzie and he just keeps getting better! He took great care of my pup and sent loads of great update pics Thank you! Can’t wait to rebook”
Brooklyn pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had several schedule changes leading up to our dates, and she was incredibly accommodating and flexible throughout. Communication was prompt, clear, and professional every step of the way. We really appreciated how easy she made everything and would happily book again! Pretzel will be thrilled to go for a run with Catherine.
Madeline could not have been more excellent! I felt so comfortable leaving my cat Sunday and apartment in her hands while I was out of state for a week. She made sure to send me pictures and updates daily and left the apartment clean upon my return. She was professional, kind, and loving to my cat! I will definitely book her again in the future!
This was the fourth or fifth time Sadie took care of my pets and my home. My pets absolutely love spending time with Sadie, and I can sense their disappointment when I arrive instead - I suspect that only pet owners understand the joy of being a disappointment when they return. Sadie is also an excellent communicator, and I trust her completely.
This was my third time booking with Jordan C, and once again, he exceeded expectations. He is consistently professional, reliable, and incredibly attentive. Jordan C took amazing care of Kitty Kitty and kept me at ease by sending multiple updates with photos of their walks and downtime together at home. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after, and that level of attention makes a huge difference. On top of that, he left my place just as clean and organized as I left it, which I really appreciate. I’m so grateful to have found Jordan C on Rover. If you’re reading this review and considering a sitter, look no further—Jordan C is absolutely amazing. Highly recommend!
Taylor took great care of our two dogs while we were away for a weekend. She sent lots of great updates of the pups and they loved her right away, and spent a good amount of time snuggling with her. I could tell from the updates that they were comfortable with her and not stressed that we were gone. They are very different dogs - one is a senior, one is high energy - and she balanced their care really well. We will absolutely be rebooking with Taylor next time we need a sitter!
