1. Elric N.
“We really liked Elric. He seemed instantly bonded with Duggi and was a clean and considerate sitter who communicated well. We will hire him again next time if he is free! We strongly recommended Elric's chill manner, and his apparent love for Duggi from the start, keeping us updated regularly and leaving the house as good or better than it was when we left.”
2. Veronica J.
“Veronica is awesome! I needed a last minute sitter for a few hours and she was quick to respond and help me out. My dog loved chilling with her.”
3. Laura G.
“Laura was great! Very responsive and kept us up to date on our dog! She was very understanding when our plans changed. Would recommend and have her sit again!”
4. Tami W.
“Tami stayed with my two cats for one week and she made my time away stress free. She was in communication multiple times daily to let me know what they were up to and sent lots of pictures. When I got home at the end of the week, the cats were relaxed and happy. No problems at all. I highly recommend Tami!”
5. Mollie P.
“Mollie was super flexible and patient with our logistics challenges. She had our back! Took great care of our crazy baby Gus. We can’t wait to use her again!”
6. Jessica H.
“Jessica is amazing! Was so happy my pup was in her care recently. My phone broke and I had limited communication, but knowing that Tumi was in good hands with someone capable and carrying was a huge relief. She also takes great pictures and I knew Tumi liked her because she didn't seem to miss me that much when I got home. I hope Jessica can stay with Tumi again next time I leave town. Thanks so much!”
7. Etna W.
“Etna was wonderful with my dog, and incredibly considerate and attentive to all of my (far too detailed) instructions. We’d book again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Etna!”
8. Anita G.
“Anita was great with Herbie! She took fantastic care of him and I can tell she was very attentive. I came back and he was very content and seemed to have been playing a ton! Anita was also super responsive to my texts and willing to work with me last minute. She also left the house very clean and tidy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone! Thanks for taking such good care of Herbie!”
9. Sukufe O.
“Sukufe was absolutely wonderful!! She was patient, kind, had great communication, was on time & stayed as long as we needed when we had flight delays on the way home. Looking forward to having her take care of Nelly next month!! Thank you, Sukufe!!!”
10. Rhiannon Z.
“I think this was the third time Rhiannon sat for Vega about 4 ish days. Always come home to happy cat and you know everything is a-ok when you see photos of your fur baby on someone else's lap. Slow blinks- check! Food and water- check! Medications twice a day- check! Very early morning snuggle/ pay attention to me time- check! Thanks again Rhiannon and Alex! Till next time!”
11. Marthinus V.
“Martinus is an avid animal lover. When he lived in South Africa he had 2 dogs of his own - it was evident that they were well cared for and loved! Martinus used to housesit for me when I went away on holiday - he took care of my 2 gorgeous Cocker Spaniels. I had peace of mind as he took good care of them and they were always very happy to see him. You can certainly trust Martinus to take good care of your home and that the dogs will be showered with love and attention.”
12. Charles R.
“We asked Charles to do a very long sit for our girls Cheeky and Marlowe. Im a very nervous and anxious dog mom but Charles went above and beyond to put any worries at ease. He immediately started sending photos and I never had to ask him for any updates. Charles is a very confident and kind sitter; one of our dogs is picky/anxious but warmed up to him quickly. We hope to work with him in the future.”
13. Laxmi P.
“Laxmi was great! She sent tons of adorable photos of our cats and was also a great house sitter! I'll definitely be rebooking her in the future.”
14. Jessica Q.
“5 stars!!! Jessica put my mind at ease and went above and beyond. She sent me pictures and videos all through the day and it was clear my dog was in great hands.”
15. Tamiya J.
“Tamiya is awesome! She took amazing care of our dog while we were away. He is a bit anxious when we travel but I could tell he was calm and happy with Tamiya. Tamiya communicated well with us throughout the weekend. She also is tidy and kept the apartment very clean and organized. Thank you!!!”
16. Jenny C.
“This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little nervous about leaving both my cat and apartment in the care of a stranger. But as soon as I met Jenny, all my worries disappeared. She sent me updates twice a day, and my cat, Pip, always looked so happy and content in the photos. Jenny clearly spent quality time with her, playing and cuddling, which was a huge relief. It made my trip so much more enjoyable knowing that someone was staying with Pip, not just popping in once a day like other sitters I've used in the past. I came home to a happy cat and my apartment just as I left it. I will definitely ask Jenny to catsit again – she’s awesome! Your pets will be so well cared for!”

“Elizabeth stayed with our 4 year old slightly anxious pitmix for 4 nights and she was so wonderful! I felt so comfortable leaving him with her, she sent daily updates along with photos and it felt so nice knowing he was in such good hands. 10/10 would recommend! 🤍 Elizabeth, we appreciate you so much!!”
