Rover.com and DogVacay connected in any way?

The people who post here would be sitters and they may be listed on both Rover and DogVacay. They're the ones--not either company--who have set up the joint Facebook groups. The companies are competitors and have nothing to do with the FB groups, other than possibly having some employee-sitters being members of them.

Remember, because something is posted here on the Rover Community, it isn't not a policy or answer by the company, just other sitters wanting to share info.

Yep - similar to what others have said, they are definitely competitors. Many sitters (including myself) are listed on both websites. As a sitter, it's nice to see the features on both sites but sometimes I do with they were connected so that they could see all my reviews!

Kathleen - the Facebook Rover/DV sites are independent from either company, they are administered by Rover or DV sitters and host the forum for open dialog, education, and sharing.
