We had a great experience with Jennifer! This is the first time we have ever left our dear dog Izzy in the care of another person, and the first time we had someone we did not know personally stay in our house. Both things worked out really well. Before she even started taking care of Izzy in our home, she came over to meet all of us, followed by another visit to take a walk with Izzy and myself to check all the "hot spots" in the neighborhood (aka rowdy dogs that Izzy might react to). It was another good opportunity for Izzy and I to get acquainted with Jennifer. During our time away, Jennifer sent frequent and very much appreciated updates and left the house in perfect order. We are so happy to be able to work with Jennifer again.

Thomas was great. He was very prompt in response in scheduling a meet & greet with our pack. He communicated thoroughly throughout his stay house sitting and provided updates throughout the day with adorable photos of our pups. I would definitely recommend his services and we will absolutely be using him again.

This was our first time using Rover and meeting Carolyn. It was a wonderful experience. Carolyn is just the best! I can’t say enough good things about her! She was great to communicate with prior to her visit and even more wonderful in person! She spent several hours with our dog and Max loved her! She sent several photos and just made us feel so at ease. We can’t wait to have her back!

Sarah did an outstanding job take care of our two dogs (one is a high maintenance pup) while we were on vacation. She sent lots of pictures and kept us up to date on how they were doing. Our house and pets were in great hands. Highly recommended. Blake and Linda Harris.

Danika was a wonderful communicator, trustworthy, walked Wayne often during her short stay and left my home exactly the way she found it. It was also clear she is a big dog lover and enjoyed her time with my monster. Highly recommended! I have already booked her for two additional stays.

Nikolas not only took great care of our girls, he left our home super neat and clean. He was very communicative in the lead up to his stay, and he provided timely updates during the weekend. We were very pleased with his service and care. Thanks Nikolas. Sadie and Gladys are ready for us to go out of town again so that they can have a visit with you.

Lilia is amazing! This was our first time using Rover & we needed a house sitter since our old pup, Annie, is happiest at home. Lilia not only took great care of Annie, but also our property. Her daily updates were always a highlight and overall Lilia is a stellar communicator. We're excited to continue working with her for upcoming trips and are super grateful for her help.

Audrey is amazing! She's been our dog walker for a few months, so we are familiar with how responsive, kind and professional Audrey is, but this was our first timing leaving both animals over night. I cannot express how comfortable and safe we felt with Audrey holding down the fort. She provided a detailed but simple daily update with multiple photos, that let us know the animals were well cared for so we could relax. I highly recommend Audrey and will definitely be a return customer.
