“Barbara took fabulous care of our animals! She checked in each day on their adventures or if she had questions. We traveled worry free knowing Barbara was in charge.”
“Scott was communicative and provided great care for our pups! He came and met the dogs ahead of time, which was really nice. He was very easy going throughout the whole process. Thank you!”

“Dey was a fantastic house sitter, so easy to work with, and took great care of our dog. Not only was Dey super responsive, but I think my house was cleaner than I left it.”

“I had such a great experience with Raven! She took amazing care of my schnoodle during an overnight stay. She was very attentive, thoughtful, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made sure he got plenty of walks and kept me updated with lots of photos, which I really appreciated. Communication was easy and responsive from start to finish, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely hire her again next time without hesitation!”

“Skyler was great! Did an amazing job taking care of our pups and keeping the house in one piece. Communication was on point, sending updates each day. Would definitely rebook in the future. Highly recommended!”

“River was great! Very communicative and happy to send pictures/updates throughout. She generously accommodated some scheduling snafus between us, and additionally was happy to come meet him before the trip to ease into things. Importantly, she was happy to ask questions as needed. Our dog requires patience and exhibits some odd (charming) traits, and she was happy to learn how to accommodate a dog like that and get to know and meet his needs. While our dog was happy to see us, he wasn't overly relieved we were back, either :)”


“Michelle was great! She came and watched our dog Lucy for the weekend. Lou got lots of love and plenty of walks. Michelle was quick to respond and left the house in perfect shape.”
“Aaron was a fantastic cat sitter. He gave my asthmatic cat, Tiger, her inhaler like an absolute pro, sent wonderful photo updates the whole time, and was incredibly conscientious. He left the house spotless, and somehow even won over my very shy kitty, Flora, by the end she was rubbing up against his legs like they’d been best friends for years. Highly recommend.”

“Char and Ben were fantastic pet sitters for my two Danes. It was obvious from the meet and greet that they had experience and were very comfortable around X-lg dogs! The communication and photos were top notch. My dogs are quirky and Char and Ben were able to work with them on their picky eating and fear of the floor register. The Danes were very content when I came home so I knew they had gotten their needs met while I was gone. Bodhi is now moping around as he misses his new buddies. Highly recommend them and will definitely use them again.”

“Ethan was so helpful with my kitties! They took great care of my two cats and my home. In addition, my senior cat has special needs for both food and medicine administration and Ethan was really helpful in that as well.”
“Shannon went above and beyond taking care of our two dogs and cat while we were away for two weeks. She left our apartment immaculate and we came home to happy, relaxed pets. She sent us pictures and updates and was very responsive. She even figured out our fancy litter box when it jammed. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again!”


“Erin took great care for our pups! She definitely has a great love for your pets! It is helpful to be at peace while you’re away! She also house sit as well and kept everything organized. Thank you Erin! We will use her again! She is a great pet lover! By the way Annie is a pup 4 months now!”

“Jason was a wonderful dog and house sitter! We received pictures and videos regularly, which were very appreciated while we were traveling. We trusted Hazel was in good hands and the house was, too! We’d definitely have Jason watch Hazel again.”


“I am so grateful to Sparkle for taking such great care of our pooch and our home. I contacted Sparkle months before our 3-week vacation and we set up a few appointments to help Ozzie get comfortable and to make sure Sparkle was cool with him. All worked well and we had a great 3-week-long vacation! She was responsive and professional, and left us with a freshly vacuumed home and sheets in the dryer (I did not request this).”

“Megan was very responsive and clearly enjoys doing this work. We had her in for a half day of pet sitting and she took good care of our dog, was great about letting me know specifics on how he was doing, and was flexible with a last minute schedule change. Would definitely hire her again.”

“Tyler is one of the best Rovers I have ever booked! He followed all of my care instructions and kept me updated on how the dog was doing. The photos he sent me made me feel at ease. I will definitely book him again!”


“Fantastic sitter, my dogs immediately loved her and she took excellent care of them and our home. Our dogs have high needs, pill regimens, and are aggressive towards other dogs and she handled all of it so well!”

“As always, we come home to happy pets! This time they even had a sweet fireplace scene with jazz on the TV for them. 😭♥️♥️ Jaycen is always responsive and let’s us know how things are going.”

Center pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily looked after our one year-old puppy for a couple days while we had to go out of town at the last minute. Murphy seemed happy and content when we got home and the house was in great shape. Emily also looked out for packages that got delivered and helped bring those in. Thank you so much!

Anna was a good communicator, asked great questions, and took good care of both my pup and my home. My border collie, Alsea, is super high-energy and Anna seemed to handle it well. The house was clean and Alsea was tired (in a good way) and well-adjusted when I got home. I will definitely call Anna again for future pet sitting needs!

I highly recommend Emily! I have a nervous pup who had never done in-house sitting before and Emily helped her feel positive and comfortable about the experience. The house was in great shape and everyone was in good spirits upon my return. It was a comfort to know both my cat and dog were diligently cared for while I was away.

Barbara is the BEST! I am a repeat customer and will continue to be as long as I can grab her! She helped me out in a pinch when I accidentally scheduled for the wrong night and she is so bright and intuitive regarding my dog needs. She responds promptly to all messages and ask wonderful questions about anything and everything. I love this as I am a very needy and worried dog, Mom when I am away.. Go cannot go wrong with Barbara💕

Dorian was great and easy to work with. Very flexible about meet up times. He gave great updates with pictures and comments while we were away and left the house in good condition when we returned. Our pets all seemed calm and well cared for on our return, no post trip friction to work through. Bonus he even fixed an issue we had been having with our projector! Will definitely think of Dorian when it comes to our next trip.

This was our first time using Rover for an overnight stay while we traveled, and we had a lot of anxiety going into it. Scott made the entire experience incredibly smooth from beginning to end. He took the time to make sure our dogs were comfortable with him before we even booked, which meant so much to us, and his communication was outstanding throughout the entire process. Once the stay began, Scott truly went above and beyond not just caring for our dogs, but also taking great care of our home and yard. He sent regular photos and updates that gave us real peace of mind, and we really appreciated his honesty about how things were going, even when the dogs had accidents or were being a little difficult. We’re not frequent travelers, and our communication on our end wasn’t always the best during the trip, but Scott was incredibly understanding, supportive, and flexible the entire time. That meant more than we can say. We are beyond thankful for Scott and couldn’t recommend him more highly. Every great thing we read in his reviews turned out to be true and more. We will absolutely be using him again in the future!
