1. Madeline B.
“Madeline is so lovely! She is kind, prompt, and responsible, and our dachshund absolutely loves her. She sends thoughtful notes and photographs, and it’s a joy to work with her. We will definitely be reaching out to her again and can’t wait to work with her in the future :)”
2. Christine L.
“I would highly recommend Christine. She was very communicative and responsive. She sent an update while I was away which I always appreciate. My cats are a bit shy at first and you could tell that she's a cat person because she was gentle and let them approach her. I will definitely be asking for her help in the future.”
3. Shanley J.
“Shanley taking care of Shane is a real treat for him, and relaxing for me. He always is more calm when I get back than he was when I left. Shanley is super!”
4. Melina B.

6. Natalie B.
“I appreciated the detailed, but brief, updates from Natalie, as well as multiple pictures. Natalie was patient and kind with our cat who can be a bit skittish. Came home to a happy kitty. Thanks Natalie!”

8. Osama A.
“Osama was awesome - thanks for dropping in and taking Tammy for quick walks, playing fetch, feeding and checking up on her while I was away during the day! Appreciate the report cards, photos, and communication - much appreciated!”
9. Andrea D.
“Andrea is a wonderful and knowledgeable animal carer. She has looked after my husky many times with care, diligence and professionalism. She knows her stuff and falls in love with every dog she meets. I can heartily recommend!”
10. Andrea L.
“Encontrar a Andrea ha sido una bendicion. A mi perro (Oreo), no les gusta estar solo en la casa y estuvimos buscando a alguien que lo caminara y jugara con el por las mañanas. Mi Oreo es un perro bien "hyper" pero timido y con Andrea el es un encanto. Cada vez que la ve o lo llevamos a su casa no puede esperar de bajarse del coche para ir a donde ella. Andrea ha sido bien atenta y flexible, lo cual se lo agradecemos con el alma.”
11. Jane C.
“Jane took care very well of Arietta and was very communicative. I came back to a happy cat. I highly recommend Jane and will definitely rebook on next trip.”
12. Cynthia R.
“Yes!”
13. Rutherford S.
“Rutherford is hands down the best cat sitter I've ever had! Not only is he reliable and responsible, but his love and understanding of animals truly shine through. He has a special bond with my cat, and it's clear he loves him. He goes above and beyond, taking time to play with him, ensuring he feels loved and entertained while I'm away. What's even more impressive is that Rutherford can handle giving medication without any issues, which is a huge relief. I trust him completely with my pet and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate and dedicated cat sitter!”
14. Jennifer & Jordan L.
About: We've loved dogs our whole lives and joined Rover with the dream of opening our own doggy daycare someday. We bring hands-on experience, having raised our two dogs—a beagle and a basset hound—from tiny pups to well-behaved adults. Our apartment building has a dog park, that provides an ideal space for quick potty breaks and playdates with other pups. Having two pups of our own, pet care is already integrated into our daily routine. We have flexible work home jobs, ensuring your pup gets enough attention & potty breaks throughout the day. We’ll always be keeping an eye on your pup. Since there’s two of us, there will always ways be someone there with them, and they’ll never be left alone.
15. Kristine L.
“Kristine has house sat for us on several occasions when we are out of town taking care of our cat, ranging from a out of town weekend to a two week vacation. She's very attentive and excellent at making sure our cat is well taken care of while we are away. She provides updates and pictures when asked. We usually ask for updates every few days since our cat isn't the most social animal. Kristine is an animal lover and definitely does her best to draw out even our stubborn cat. She's also a great house guest - everything is always clean and tidy when we return. She's an excellent choice for a house/cat sitter! She is our first choice and go to house sitter whenever we need help.”
16. Jasmine A.
“Jasmine was a huge help with a drop-in holiday visit with a walk and feeding our two dogs. She handles them both well and we appreciate her help.”
17. Andres G.
“Andres Gomez is a polite, responsible person with a deep love for pets. He has walked and taken care of my dogs for a long time. I highly recommend him.”
18. Sarah V.
“Sarah watched my dog for 2 weeks while I was on my honeymoon. She spent nights in my guest bedroom, took Chiquis out at least twice a day—sometimes sending us the cutest pictures of Chiquis in the sun—fed her dinner, and generally kept her company. Sarah was very respectful towards our home, and is a lovely, sweet person. She was worth every penny!”
19. Neia P.
“Neia did a terrific job of caring for our dog and cat, on short notice when we had to leave town for a family emergency. Everything went very smoothly and she communicated with us regularly. A huge relief and I hope to contact her again.”
20. Cindy D.
“This was my first time using Rover and working with Cindy and Cesar was a very positive experience. They made me and my cat feel at ease. Thank you!”
