“Dannie was flexible, kind, and easy to work with. He provided care under unique + high maintenance circumstances where he accommodated 1) the need for flexible timing and location while I traveled to town for work and 2) to care of my dog who requires constant vigilance to manage a subtle injury where inattention could result in immediate paralysis.”

“April was great and had great communication. She was flexible which I appreciated a lot because our plans did change a little and she was more than willing to adjust and accommodate them. The boys were in great hands with her and we had no concerns.”

“Mason was fantastic! He was wonderful with our pets and super communicative and helpful while he watched them and our house during a big winter storm. We would absolutely book him again!”

“Alexis was great with the dogs and the house! She sent plenty of pictures, played with the dogs and kept me updated every step of the way. Will definitely use her again!”

“BEST SITTER EVER! I truly cannot recommend Sarah enough. We adopted our dog 2 years ago and she struggles with separation anxiety, reactivity, and just nervousness in general. Sarah was the PERFECT temperament for Ruthie - so warm, gentle, and let Ruthie come to her. Sarah kept us updated multiple times throughout the day with photos, administered Ruthie's daily meds with care, and even sent us a video of the house before she left. I felt SO at peace know Ruthie was in such good hands with Sarah. BOOK HER!”

“I’ve used Rover more than 20 times over the years, and Rose was by far the best sitter we’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to ensure we knew our pups were in great hands, keeping us updated and handling every detail with care. She not only met all of our requests but exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend!”


“Carissa was great from the beginning! We scheduled a meet and greet, and Neptune immediately took to her. Throughout the stay, Carissa was extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures! My mind was at ease and I was able to actually enjoy my trip. I will 100% book her again!”

“Marge was amazing! She house sat and pup sat my little Rosco - who I have not left since I adopted him. She was great with communication and I never once worried that he wasn't being loved on or taken care of. Would definitely book with her again!!”

“Lizzie is absolutely incredible and we cannot wait to use her in the future! She treats your pups like her own. We also have a very nervous girl who usually does not let anyone but us touch her, but in less than 2 days she was asking Lizzie for pets!! Our flight got delayed 4 hours and Lizzie went above and beyond and stayed even later than we had scheduled. She gave incredible updates with videos of our pups and was an absolute joy to talk to! Highly highly recommend! Thank you so much for truly treating our dogs like your own and for all of your patience and extra kindness, Lizzie!!”

“Erin was fantastic. We have a very nervous dog and she was understanding and sent updates over the course of her stay. Everything went perfectly and we look forward to working with here again.”

“Chris showed our dog man a very nice time while we went away, and left our home cleaner than we left it ! We will definitely be sniffing the streets for his servicing the next time we have to leave town.”

“Emma is awesome! She took great care of Bodhi while we were away for a long weekend. She was super flexible with logistics and sent updates every day. We are excited to book her again soon!”

“Aubrey is always respectful of our home and takes great care of our dog while we’re out of town!! Great communication and daily updates with pictures. Goes above and beyond. Thanks again Aubrey!!!”

“Mada became besties with our dog while house sitting. She has amazing energy and our dog loved to play with her. Our dog was even looking for in the house after she left. Highly recommend Mada for anyone that has a otherwise nervous yet friendly dog that just needs that type of person to warm up. Mada is the type of sitter you need.”

“Cameron was the first over night sitter I’ve gotten for my kitten, Ziggy. It couldn’t have been any better!! She was kind, communicative, sent photo updates and made me feel at ease. I also came home to a pristine house after a weekend of travel and that was so lovely!! I couldn’t recommend her enough.”

“Melissa was a wonderful dog sitter! She took the best care of my girls and treated them like her own. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative sitter. She also took great care of my home.”

“Allison was punctual and very understanding about a last minute sitting request. She made sure to stop by and meet my pup beforehand, communicated well, and gave updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”

“Elyssa is awesome! Her background and experience was what caught our attention, but she really was wonderful while she stayed at our house with our pup. She went above and beyond to keep the house in order and keep our little one happy. We will definitely use her again and encourage others to do the same.”

“Our pups had a great time with Christina! One of our dogs is a tripod undergoing chemo, and both dogs need morning medication. Christina was very accommodating of both, and sent lots of pretty pictures while we were away. We’ll likely book with Christina again!”

Capitol View pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carolyn was stellar from the start--very professional with regard to caring for my senior dog, sending updates and timely communication, and working with me on scheduling. In fact, when I had ridiculous flight delays from a work trip, she was flexible and gracious and supportive. All great things! Cannot recommend her enough.

Kathryn was an excellent pet and house sitter during our recent vacation. It gave us such peace of mind having her look after our dog and two cats while we were away. She communicated regularly and was quick to respond if we had any questions. She went above and beyond in many ways - taking our pup to the dog park, communicating with a repair person when our HVAC went out on our first day of traveling, and we came home to a house cleaned and refreshed - to name a few. If you’re looking for someone who is going to give your animals lots of love and attention while you’re away, Kathryn is the one. I highly recommend her and will definitely request her to house sit for us in the future.

April was absolutely wonderful, and we would happily book with her again. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she was reliable, professional, and easy to work with. What impressed us most was how quickly she built a connection with Lou. It was clear that she genuinely cares about dogs and made Lou feel comfortable right away. We felt completely confident leaving Lou in her care and would highly recommend April to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. We would not hesitate to book with her again!

Aubrey was so willing and able to just jump in and help us with our 2 dogs as we were right in the middle of a move and had a trip planned. She did great even though one of our pups can be a bit grumpy and apprehensive of new people as well as administer meds no problem!

Gosh what can I say about how great Abbe is with Molly? She’s helped us twice and I think Molly was actually upset that we came home! She treats Molly like she is her own and sends us the best pictures so we don’t feel as homesick. Molly loves all of her friends, especially Abbe!

Isabella was incredibly communicative and took amazing care of my high-energy dog, Luna. She provided regular updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Knowing Luna was in such good hands allowed me to fully relax and enjoy my trip without worrying. It’s clear that Isabella genuinely cares about the pets she watches, and Luna absolutely loved her. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!

Melissa is amazing! She stayed with my pup who required extra attention due to his separation anxiety and he’s grieving the loss of his sister of all 11 years of his life. She provided lots of updates during her stay and lots of pictures. Walker looked happy and extremely well cared for in every single one. I was very anxious about leaving him since he required extra attention and is on some new meds but Melissa was wonderful and I never wondered for a second how things were going while I was away. I know we have a new friend who we will rebook with any time. Thank you, Melissa!!

Becca was amazing and went above and beyond to make sure my dog and two cats were well cared for while we were out of town! She sent us daily pictures and updates which made it possible for us to enjoy our trip knowing they were in good hands! She was also a wonderful guest and we will definitely be rebooking soon! Thanks Becca!

Micah was amazing! She consistently stopped by multiple times a day, took my dog on walks, sent photos, and gave daily updates while I was away. She did everything requested, including meds and extra care needs for my dog. I felt really comfortable leaving my pets with her and would definitely book again!
