Aliyah was absolutely amazing with our two dogs! One of our dogs still has ‘puppy energy’ but she was calm and firm with her. And I swear my house was cleaner than when I left. We absolutely will be booking with her again!

My cats have never been so calm and happy when I return home from a trip. A’layza always communicated with me, sent me daily pictures of my fur babies, and left the house cleaner than it was. Highly recommended A’layza!

5+ stars. All the stars! Due to my schedule I couldn't do a meet and greet beforehand, but that didn't change anything. Our 3 Bullies LOVED her! You would've thought she had been with them before. I returned home to happy, safe, and exercised doggies! I had such peace just knowing they were taken care of. She has skills. Period!

Ada was amazing!! This was my first time using the App and she made me feel so comfortable. She agreed to a meet and greet prior to my house sitting dates and my dogs loved her instantly. She was very communicative and kept me informed on everything. As this was my first time leaving my babies with anyone outside of family, we were all a bit nervous and hoping this was a good match. My mom even checked in with Ada and she was totally cool with. My mom and dog both have dogs and we are pretty certain Ada has 3 new clients. Ada maintained my home wonderfully. She really was patient with and understanding and I would recommend her 10/10, especially for new clients.

He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!

Kayla does it again! Thanks again Kayla. This is now our 3rd time using Kayla and although it is now pretty simple and routine she has gone above and beyond what is asked of her. She helped fix a situation where one of our kennels needed to be reinforced and she helped fix it without any issues. Would recommend and continue using her for our pets needs.

Isabelle was exceptional. She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was not only well cared for but genuinely happy and comfortable. The regular updates, photos, and attention to detail really stood out. It gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will continue to use Isabelle as our go to dog sitter.

Kymberlee did a great job caring for Ralphie. We had some pleasant exchanges before the booking to nail down details. She sent pics and updates during her stay and left the house in good condition. Ralphie seemed happy upon our return and even looked for Kymberlee downstairs where she stayed on the day after she left! We would be grateful to have her sit for us again.

Mya was fantastic. She watched our two rowdy puppies, one of whom is only 5 months, while my husband and I were away for our wedding. You could tell she genuinely loved our dogs and was taking such good care of them. We came home and the house was immaculate and our dogs were so happy. She was on time, communicative, and detailed. I would hire her again in a second!

Gabrielle was the perfect housesitter for our dog.

We would definitely work with Gabrielle again and highly recommend them to others.

Kayla was an amazing sitter for Asja during my time away! I am very particular about my dog and can normally gauge from the meet and greet if the sitter is a good fit. The care, attention to detail, follow up, professionalism, and the love she has for her job and her furry clients are just a few shining examples of her superior work ethic. We were gone for almost a week and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was there taking care of and giving the best of care to my Asja. I highly recommend Kayla and plan to use her for future sittings.

Corraly did a FANTASTIC job caring for our sweet boy Prince and home while away for a week long vacation celebrating our 1st year marriage anniversary, and we could not have been more pleased with her services. This was our first time working with Corraly and she made a quick bond with Prince that clearly grew during the days they spent together. She texted daily updates and included lovely photos of their time spent together in our home and during long walks and was super responsive throughout her stay. We (including Prince) 100000% highly recommend Corraly and look forward to her future dogsitting stay 🤎 🖤

I came back to a happy pup and a spotless apartment. Would absolutely recommend and I will be asking her to care for Nutmeg again.

Natalie is an outstanding sitter. She is super professional and intentional with caregiving.

Natalie stayed in our home, and communicated any home related issues and took wonderful care of our space. You won’t regret booking! We look forward to working with Natalie again in the future.

I am a first time Rover user, and was for a long time very wary of allowing strangers to take care of my fur babies. Roy, unequivocally, is the reason this site works. Roy communicated often, thoroughly, and was even patient when we had app difficulties and my communication lapsed. Roy took care of my two dogs and one cat and provided stimulation and lots of cuddles. We came home to a house that was pristine and three happy and healthy pets. As I told Roy personally, having the peace of mind to actually enjoy the vacation is nearly invaluable. We are very thankful to Roy and will definitely be booking again should the time come!

Absolutely incredible sitter!** I booked Trina F. over the Thanksgiving break (Nov 26–Dec 1), and her service was truly amazing from start to finish. She checked in constantly, sent regular photo and video updates, and always made sure I knew my fur baby was happy, safe, and well cared for. Her communication was fast, friendly, and reassuring — exactly what you hope for when leaving your pet with someone. I could tell she genuinely cared and treated my pup like her own. I came home to a relaxed, happy dog and a spotless space. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Trina went above and beyond, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!
