“Oli was very communicative, left our house cleaner than we left it, and our pup was so well-taken care of for the two weeks we were gone!! We could very much tell when we got home, and by the funny tidbits Oli sent us that showed how much she was in tune with Maddie! We would definitely use Oli again! And so appreciate how happy Maddie was and how clean everything was upon our arrival! When we came home in between her departing and us getting back, she even had calm music playing for Maddie! Oli is a gem! ❤️”
“Cindy was wonderful. She took excellent care of our senior cats while we were away for the holidays. Kind, thorough, and very communicative, we knew she was taking great care of them so we could relax on our travels. Very grateful for that! Recommend Cindy highly!”
“Aidan was great! I left my anxious hound dog, Dean, in his care over a long weekend. He was very responsive, and proactive about sending updates with adorable pictures. Dean does not warm up to everyone, but was so sad when Aidan left and was stuck with me again. I'll be using him again in the future.”
“Emily did a fantastic job caring for our critters and home while we were away. She provided daily updates, photos, and even a video or two. We really appreciated her good communication and reliability. Thanks for a great experience!”
“Jordyn was great! She was available super last minute July4th weekend. We set up a meet and greet same day and I was able to show her the routine for my pup and she followed it to a tee. She gave me consistent updates and communication regarding my pup! I felt super comfortable with her caring for him and he loved her. She also was super respectful of my place. I highly recommend her!”
“Kyla was a truly attentive, communicative sitter. She was great with Chico during the meet and greet and asked good questions, leaving me to feel 100% comfortable leaving Chico in her care. She was flexible and gracious with last minute changes, sent updates and pictures while I was away, and left my home very neat after her stay.”

“Averi did great with Sandy. We were gone on an extended trip and Averi stayed with Sandy in our home for 16 days. She followed all instructions for Sandy and really carred for her. Sandy loved her time and we got a lot of pictures while we were gone. This helped keep us from worrying to much. She walked, played with, and gave Sandy her medicine. It was christmas and Sveri got Sandy a puppy stocking and photo with Santa. She went above everything we expected. I highly recommend her.”
“Emily did an incredible job taking care of our dog Pepper! She was happy to assist us with a last minute house sitting request when the family members who were originally going to watch our dog had to cancel for a personal matter. Even prior to being formally booked, Emily was quick to respond and receptive to the specific needs of our dog. We were able to set up a meet-and-greet between Emily and Pepper a few days before the house sitting, and it was clear that Emily was the right choice - our dog can be hesitant around new people, but she quickly warmed up her new friend. On the day of our departure, Emily arrived early enough for us to hand over our house keys safely and within 5 minutes of us being out the door we had our first update that Pepper was happily cuddling with Emily on our couch. On the following days, Emily provided regular picture & text updates about how our dog was doing and it was clear the two of them were getting along great. We couldn't be happier - thank you!”
“I recently hired Kyle as a house and dogsitter, and I couldn't be more impressed with his service. From the moment he stepped into my home, I felt at ease knowing my house and beloved pets were in capable hands. Not only did he maintain the cleanliness and security of my home, but he also went above and beyond in caring for my furry companions. He followed all instructions meticulously, ensuring my pets' routines were maintained and that they received plenty of love and attention. Kyle demonstrated exceptional responsibility and reliability throughout his stay, and I returned to find my house in impeccable condition and my pets happy and healthy. I highly recommend Kyle for anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring house and dogsitter. His professionalism and genuine love for animals truly set him apart.”
“Thane was great! Our pups and cat were well taken care of and our house was just as we left it! Communication was great and loved all of the pictures that were sent as well - would definitely book again!”
“Kali is my go-to dog sitter. She always does great with my little Morty Mouse whether its boarding or in-home sitting. She is reliable, communicative, and a true animal lover.

Her professionalism is unmatched and she is always so excited to see Beef (my cat). I have never had an issue with communication or attendance with Marieisa and she has always treated my baby as if she were her own. She took her time to let Beef get to know her and to see her patience with my very picky cat warmed my heart immensely, I truly could not recommend Marielisa enough!”

Church Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lynne was an amazing overnight sitter for our two pups while we were on an international trip! She was super responsive, thoughtful, and caring for our whole family - which was wonderful! Knowing that our girls were being so well cared for AND having fun while we were away made the trip even better. We highly recommend Lynne for all your petsitting needs!
I can’t say enough good things about Rebecca. House and dog sitting our Corgi, she is always communicative, enthusiastic, and willing to do whatever needs to be done outside of pet care, like tending to our small garden. Telly loves her and even gets to hang out with her own Corgi, Waffles. We got daily photos and updates, which made leaving so much easier. Thank you, Rebecca! ❤️
Emma was great!! We felt really comfortable leaving Leo with her. She sent tons of updates and pictures and also took great care of our house (she even washed our bed sheets for us!). We came back and Leo seemed really happy and healthy. I recommend her 100%! Thanks Emma!!

We had another great experience working with Egon! They did a wonderful job taking care of our grumpy old cat and two kittens :) We knew the kitties and our house were in good hands, and we came home to a tidy house and happy cats. We'll definitely be asking Egon to housesit for us again!
Catherine provided excellent care for my dog! She was proactive and consistent with updates, and she made my vacation super easy by staying at my house while I was out of town. It was so evident my dog loved spending time with Catherine. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.
Mariana did a wonderful job caring for our dog Scout. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Scout was in such caring hands. Mariana was very prompt with our meetings and message response. It was so nice coming home to a very clean house and very happy dog.❤️🐶
