“Robin did a great job sitting with my pup and taking care of my house. My trip was unexpected and Robin was very kind/patient while I made my last minute plans with her. I know my dog will be well cared for the next time Robin comes.”

“Johanna was amazing! It’s hard to find someone you trust to take care of your pups but I felt safe leaving them with Johanna. She was very communicative and provided lots of updates. She really cares about what she does and we will use her again!!!”

“We highly recommend Zach if you’re looking for someone to care for your fur babies! We had a longer trip and were anxious about leaving them behind. Not only did he take wonderful care of our pets, he worked with our dog on extra training and frequently took her on walks- all while giving us daily updates! We will definitely look to use his care in the future!”

“Becky was really wonderful with our two dogs when we took a short vacation. My little adult chihuahua rescues 💕 loved her at first sight. Becky was quick to respond to messages and she sent several cute doggie photos everyday. She came to my home two times before we left. The Meet n Greet lasted more than an hour. The second time was for my dogs to be comfortable with her. I highly recommend using Becky!”

“Diane was wonderful! Desto loved her immediately and had so much fun with Diane while I was gone. She provided plenty of photos and updates which was great to see. I would recommend Diane to anyone looking for a responsible and caring individual to care for their pets. I will definitely be using her services again!”

“Vanessa is amazing :) Our girl, Ladybug, was very well cared for during our week away! I felt confident she was in very good hands. Vanessa was on top of communication and sent me really great photos of our happy pup to keep us updated. We’ll invite her back as a sitter again for sure!”
“Sarah took wonderful care of my little dog Punky! She followed instructions that I left for her, was communicative and sent lots of photos. I appreciated her letting me know how Punky was doing throughout the day. I would use Sarah again for pet sitting.”

“I had Laurin watch my house and my dog for five days while I was out of town. My dog needs a lot of attention and I don't have a fenced in yard and I could tell when I came home that he had been well taken care of! Laurin was sweet, very communicative, and overall extremely trustworthy. I'm sure I will hit up again soon!”

“Abella was wonderful. She cared for our (very) high-maintenance dogs in such a kind and efficient way. She also sent us daily pictures and updates, which we really appreciated. She also left our house spotless, which, after a long travel weekend, was AMAZING.”

“Brett did a fantastic job taking care of my dog while we were out of town. We had an emergency with our original sitter and he came to the rescue last minute. He spend lots of time with my dog and kept in consistent communication with us.”

“We have had Chloe watch our dogs multiple times and every time she goes above and beyond in her love and care of our pups. She has worked with our young Labrador teaching him new skills and loving on our old golden. She also is an amazing house sitter! Thank you Chloe!”

“Rachel took such great care of not only my dogs, but our bunny, guinea pigs, chickens, garden and home! She was so communicative and also took the best pictures of my doggies and chickens. I’m so glad we found her!”

“Summer was so kind and compassionate to our pets. We felt so relaxed and at ease on our vacation knowing they were well cared for. Will definitely ask her again to house sit.”

“Stephanie took on her first time with us so well! We were out of town with no signal. She met our dogs once and did a fantastic job caring for them in our absence. I would definitely recommend Stephanie to others!”

“Maggie was great! She was able to come last minute to hang out with my dogs while we went to Seattle for a concert. My dogs were happy to have someone with them and Maggie sent a couple of pics afterwards, which was much appreciated! Will definitely hire again in the future!”

Castlewood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Davis was excellent to work with and took outstanding care of all three of our high energy pups along with helping maintain some of our plants and fish tanks. He was very responsive and sent plenty of updates and photos of everyone having a great time. Despite our pups usually feeling anxious and sad while we are away, Davis was able to make them feel comfortable and happy the entire time. I'm very grateful we found such an excellent sitter, and we look forward to working with him again in the future!

Jackie (Kirsten) was an excellent choice for our dog while we were on vacation. She was friendly and really a natural when interacting with our nervous dog. We felt confident that it was a good fit, and we were correct. Jackie communicated with us via email and sending photos daily. We came home to a happy dog. We plan on using her services in the future!

Taylor went above and beyond to care for our kitty Cal at our house while we were away for a week. She was communicative throughout and sent the cutest pictures. I could tell when I got home how well taken care of he was. She left the house super tidy and ready for us to return. We will absolutely be asking Taylor to sit again. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet/house sitter!

Anita took very good care of my dog and cat. She gave the cat plenty of space and was patient with her introvert ways. Nova even started to hang out in the same area as Anita towards the end of her stay. Anita was injured right before our booking but did not cancel and was positive and upbeat about it. I really appreciate the care she gave our pets. The house was clean and in order when we returned. I would not hesitate to ask Anita to stay with Abby and Nova again.

Well Roberta knocked it out of the park according to Chidi and Ellie. On time, present, and engaged... no meals missed, no treats too small, walks in the park and ball chasing in the back yard. Roberta did it all and kept us on our toes! Thank you for a great week while Dad was away, we much appreciate it!

Ariel was amazing! She sent me pictures of my fur babies multiple times a day. She made sure the house was tidy and even washed the bedding and the towels in the guest room! I recommend her 10000%. I’m so happy with the car she gave our dogs and the respect she gave our home!!!

Olivia was a wonderful dog sitter for our Cattle Dog, Otis, and our cat and chickens. I hired her specifically because she had experience with high energy cattle dogs and more “farm” type animals — and she was great at everything! She asked thoughtful questions about the animal care and was very good at communicating. This was also a last minute request with a few changes that needed to be accommodated and she was very flexible with our requests and timeline for the weekend. She left the house in outstanding condition and really went above and beyond in all ways. Thank you so much, Olivia! I would trust you to care for our animals and home any time — thank you!

Olivia did a great job taking care of our Boston terrier, Katie and our home while we were on an 8 day trip to Taiwan. Our return flight was canceled the day before we were scheduled to return home and Olivia was understanding and accommodating to our need for her to stay longer. The house was clean and Katie was happy.

Josh accepted our last minute request so that we could leave town for a funeral and even arrived at 4:30 am for our early flight. He took great care of our dogs and even checked to make sure things were good with our reptile. In addition he left the house as he found it and cleaned up after himself.
