1. Rod L.
“Rod took great care of my two huskies while I was away on business. He has a way with connecting with dogs and was very attentive to every need and made sure to send pictures and frequent updates, which I enjoyed! When I came home, they hardly got up to greet me - which to me is the mark of a great dog sitter and tells me that he took such great care of them that they didn't miss me much while I was gone... Which is what I want! They absolutely love him, and I 100 percent will be re-booking with him for future dates. Thanks Rod for being such an awesome sitter!”
2. Logan P.
“Logan did great watching our border collie/german shepherd mix at our house! She handled the little ball of energy that is our 1 1/2 year old dog very well :) Would Highly recommend if you’re looking for a sitter on rover.”
3. Julia H.
“Julia is a fantastic dog sitter and loves dogs!! She sent us pictures and updates on Murphy throughout the weekend. Murphy loves walks, attention and playtime and Julia made sure Murphy got it all !!!”
4. Kathryn R.
“This was my first experience with Rover. I have extreme anxiety about leaving my dog with ANYONE, much less a ‘stranger.’ Kat eased my worries from the very first conversation & offered to meet Luna and me at our convenience before her stay. I immediately felt better after we met and knew my girl would be in good and safe hands! Kat followed our instructions perfectly and clarified with questions when needed. She sent tons of photos and videos while we were on our trip, and she even took our girl on a fun walk at a nature trail! Our home was perfectly kept and respected. I was so relieved to have had such a great experience because I know not everyone has been so lucky. It can be hard to trust your baby with others, but I will continue to trust Kat with my dog when I need a sitter, and you should, too!”
5. Devon D.
“Devon is wonderful! We rescued a dog who is very nervous of people and Devon has such a calm energy that our dog warmed up to her very quickly. Devon was great to communicate with and sent us picture during her stay.”
6. Gracyn M.
“Gracyn was great! Punctual, communicative and polite. She took care of our dog and two cats on a short notice and did a great job. We will using her again!”
7. El G.
“El is awesome and was available last minute, which helped me a lot. She’s very friendly and pays attention to detail. She communicates well. Aria loved her!”
8. Sarah H.
“Sarah and Jordean were INCREDIBLE. They are so trustworthy and we felt completely comfortable leaving our (fur)child in their care. We 10000% will rebook every single time.”
9. Jess P.
“Jess was amazing with my pups! Very timely about visits and understanding of their needs. One of my dogs can be a bit of a grouch and Jess gave him the time and space he needed to warm up to her and he quickly came around to wanting her attention. Lots of updates and pictures, very comforting all around. Will definitely be using her services again!”
10. Anissa R.
“There is nothing Anissa could have done better. She was a perfect house sitter for our 2 dogs. She is an excellent listener and very attentive to the dogs needs. Its nice to leave town and not have any anxiety that the pets aren't in the best hands.”
11. Athena G.
“Athena is great! My dog was well loved with her!”
12. Courtney C.
“Courtney was the perfect dog sitter! She watched our Roxy for 10 days while we were on vacation during a huge winter storm. Even though it was negative temps she still tried to walk her and she played in the snow with her and just gave her all the love.”
13. Cera B.
“Cera has taken care of our buddy many times and we honestly wouldn’t be able to leave home without her! We can always rest easy that Brooks is well taken care of and that his routine isn’t changed at all. She takes him on lots of walks, keeps up with his constant energy for playtime and stays with him in our home so he’s as comfortable as possible while we’re away. I can’t say enough great things about Cera - she’s a dream come true for any pet owner!”
14. Ryan T K.
“Ryan did a great job with our two dogs! We were very happy with the care they provided and we received some great pictures of the puppies every day.”
15. Kierra L.
“Gypsy, our Border Collie, loves Kierra and her mom and partner. From the first time that they walked into our house, she sensed that they were good people. We agree! They are punctual, sent daily updates and just went well above our expectations. They are definitely our A- team for dog care!”
16. Krystal S.
“Krystal did a great job on short notice and took care of my babies, I like that she would take pictures and share them with me, extra special attention, thank you”
17. Hannah S.
“Hannah did an excellent job house sitting and being a companion to our dog. She sent us daily pictures and seemed to really get along well with him. Complete trust in her at our home with our dog while we were away on vacation! Will definitely contact her next time we are looking for help. 10/10 recommend!”
18. Kristina D.
About: I grew up on a horse ranch with many types of animals. My mom bred and board horses, bred dogs, and was a huge pet lover overall, which is definitely where I got it from. I learned pet care from my mother at a very early age and I was active in helping my mom care for the many animals we had including dogs & puppies, horses, birds, cats, and more. I can’t remember a time in my life where we haven’t had some sort of family pet - or multiple. I am currently an online student so my schedule is completely flexible! I’m available every week day and most weekends as well. I can’t wait to meet your babies! I can very easily follow instruction and direction for your pets needs. If your dog needs to be crated that’s no problem. My own dog sleeps in his crate at night and I have no issue with a little coaxing if needed.
19. Heidi R.
“She’s good with animals. She takes good care of her two dogs and two cats and four children. She would be good at this.” Type of work”
20. Melissa H.
“Wonderful sitter. Took the job last minute after another sitter fell through. Picked my dog up AND dropped her off. Mabel was spoiled and had time with two other dogs. She was realistic about the challenges of my dog and willing to accommodate her. Nice fenced in yard and pictures provided!”
