“Nicole was excellent on her services. She stayed in our apartment for a house visit and she was super respectful of the place. She was very effective in communication and I was never wondering what our dog was up to, since Nicole planned out several activities and outings. I’m 100% hoping to re-book her for any future needs.”

“Sam was wonderful with my shy, anxious pup. Sam took it slow and Fern really warmed up to her. I got a very detailed report from Sam at the end of the weekend. I came home to a happy pup & a spotless home.”

“Thanks so much Daniella for taking care of our dog Aspen and our cat Amari. We appreciated the daily updates, pics, and videos to check in with us and your responsiveness was top notch! We look forward to working with you again in the near future and would recommend you without reservations. Thank you again!💜”

“Kaylor was great with Finn. Kaylor brings a calm energy which was great with our high energy dog. Kaylor gave him the exercise he needed and was easy to communicate with throughout the stay.”

“Michael handled the house and dog perfectly. Oakley is big and gregarious and followed Michael everywhere. When we returned home, Oakley clearly had been well taken care of.”

“Traci is wonderful. We’ve done day walk and overnight housesit stay. Our Remy (German shepherd) greatly enjoyed his time with Traci. He was well taken care of, and the house too. Looking forward to future times together!”

“Sophia took care of our two cats over the holidays and it went great. She is highly responsive to messages, responsible, and clearly enjoys spending time with pets in her care.”

“Andrew was phenomenal! I have two cats that require insulin twice a day and one of them is very skittish and difficult around strangers. I am always so stressed and scared to leave thinking the cat sitter won’t be able to gain his trust. But with Andrew, he was so patient and competent and confident, he had both of the cats used to his presence and relaxed and able to get their meds in no time at all. It made my whole vacation that I didn’t have to worry about them. I would hire him again and again and would recommend his services to anyone. He is communicative, friendly, and left my apartment tidy and nice. I can’t recommend him highly enough!”

“Sam responded to a last minute request to help watch my dog while I had to travel for work - she was super quick to respond, very thorough in the questions she had for me about my pup’s likes and needs, and they had a fantastic time together. I’ve since continued to lean on Sam for all my dog walking/boarding needs. Highly recommend!”
“Hanna was my first overnight sitter for Clementine! She was very thorough in updates and made accommodations to work from home with Clementine while I was away. I would highly recommend her and will use her again in the future!”

“Mandy is absolutely amazing. She has house sat for us several times and has also taken our dog on many walks. Every time she goes above and beyond. It is so clear that our pup is happy, well cared for, and excited to see her! Thank you, Mandy!”

“Julia is SUCH a great dog sitter! My dog loved her instantly and she took such great care of him. She watched him for a week and made sure he gots lots of love and exercise. Would recommend her to anyone!”

“Caitlyn took great care of our two cats while we were away!! She was communicative, friendly, and responsible. She even won over our grumpy cat after a couple days ☺️ Would recommend for cat/house sitting services!”

“Sofia was a great sitter for my girls! She updated me daily on how they were doing, and ensured they were well taken care of and feeling loved while I was away. Sofia is very easy going and trustworthy and was a great choice for me and my dogs! Will definitely be reaching out again when I need a hand! Thank you Sofia!”

“Ginny was so amazing! She took great care of our babies and sent us the sweetest photos during her time with them. Her communication is stellar and she left our home immaculate.”

“Molly took amazing care of my weird dog for the weekend!! She had great communication around the weekend plans and sent regular updates. When we returned it was clear Dory was happy and well cared for while we were gone! I would definitely recommend Molly to anyone!”

“Maddy was absolutely wonderful with my sweet little babies. She followed all instructions carefully and did a great job reinforcing their commands and discipline. One of my dogs had a few accidents, and Maddy handled everything so patiently and helpfully. She also took excellent care of my apartment while I was away, which gave me real peace of mind. We will absolutely be rebooking with Maddy and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter.”

“Natalie was amazing. She took great care of my older cat, anticipating what he needed to be more comfortable. She sent updates and photos regularly and left the house clean and neat. Highly recommend!”

“Wow! Amanda is a fantastic dog sitter! We are SO grateful that she was able to care for our two senior dogs while we were away for the weekend. Amanda was incredible in how she communicated and kept us posted on how our girls were doing the whole time we were away (we LOVE getting all the pics and updates throughout the day!). Amanda was also super respectful of our home and took great care to leave it in perfect condition for our return. We feel so very lucky to have found Amanda and recommend her without any reservations. We will definitely be reaching out to Amanda in the future. Thanks, Amanda for taking such good care of our girls for us! We really appreciate it!!”

Cambridge Highlands pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily was wonderful with our 10mo puppy, giving him attention and providing enrichment throughout the day, taking him on his midday walk and feeding him lunch. We came home to a happy, wriggly, sleepy puppy. Emily also left the sweetest report card and polaroid shot of Kiwi at the end of the day :)

Sam was great! She was available on relatively short notice to house sit and watch our dog, Sebago. She was responsive, responsible, and left our house in great condition. We are always anxious to leave our pup, but Sam's frequent communication and photos put us at ease and made us feel like Sebago was in great hands. Would book Sam again!

Lali was an excellent dog sitter. She came to my house to take care of my dog during a snow emergency when I was stuck out of town. She was very reliable, good communicator and sent me plenty of daily updates. I have an energetic puppy and she worked hard to tire him out. I would highly recommend!

Sydney has taken great care of our dogs multiple times, and her most recent stay was no exception. Our gal Lil is genuinely excited when Sydney walks in the door, and we always come back to a happy girl and a super clean and cared for house. Lil is also dog reactive and can be tricky to walk, and Sydney is really patient and caring with her. Thanks so much, Sydney!

Zilalai is a 5-star pet sitter! She took excellent care of my cats and my home. I appreciate that she read the instructions and kept the pets on their usual schedule. Zilalai was also very reliable. She went above and beyond by handling a blizzard and an unexpected plumbing issue with ease. She also left the house tidy. I am hoping Zilalai can come back to cat sit again during my next trip. With Zilalai on the job, I can truly relax and know the pets and house are in good hands. Thank you, Zilalai! 😻

Jess is so wonderful with my anxious girl Fern! I was out of town for a blizzard & Jess not only handled Fern perfectly but put my worries at ease! She gave frequent updates & pictures of how they were handling the storm. Jess made what could’ve been a stressful time much easier!!!

Sonia was so professional and thorough during our meet and greet. She did a fantastic job taking care of my two young dogs and kept me updated. We had a flight cancellation and she was very understanding and easy to reach. I would recommend Sonia to anyone looking for a responsible and kind sitter.

Claire was a perfect sitter, communicative, caring, and responsible. We got lots of updates and photos while we were away, and Max looked happy and content in all of them. It made leaving our little boy behind much easier, and we will definitely rebook for our next trip!
