1. Madeline B.
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, and Madeline was phenomenal. My dog, Swiffy, loved her immediately and she sent me thorough updates of their time together which really helped put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my event knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.”

3. Charlii C.
“Charlii is such an attentive, communicative, and thoughtful sitter for my 2 dogs and 1 kitty. They get tons of love and care while I’m away. She leaves the house clean and tidy. My pets all adore her, and so do I!”
4. Ashleigh H.
“Ashleigh really is a loving, kind, caring dog sitter. She stayed with my 12 yo pit bull Luna and did everything to comfort and keep her happy and active while I was away. Plus it was a heat wave so she made sure fans were on Luna to keep her cool, it was such a sweet, attentive thing to do. :) She sent pics and updates often. I'm over the moon with her attentive adoration for my old lady. I cannot recommend her enough for caring for your doggos. Book her!!”

“Nikki was a terrific housesitter for our furry crew. She took the time to meet everyone in advance and asked detailed questions about all their routines and preferences. She was very responsive and also proactive with pictures and updates. Our two large dogs soaked up the attention, including snuggles and walks. Our house looked exactly the same as we left it.”
8. Sophie C.

20. Cesar S.
“César took care of my SIX cats, including two with some medical challenges, and my house during a heat wave for 9 days, and I was able to completely relax because it was clear he had everything under control. AND given the videos and photos that César sent regularly, it was clear that even my skittish kitties also felt comfortable and safe with César taking care of them. He was very communicative and proactive. He reached out of he had questions and kept me up to date on how everyone was doing. And he played a lot with cats.”
