Mara is incredible! She was a fantastic sitter for my pup, bringing him on adventures and taking great care of him! She was so patient with my nervous boy, which end in him giving her all of the snuggles. Mara kept me updated with photos and end of the day updates that made me feel so comfortable even though I was so far away. I will definitely utilize Mara’s services again, and I strongly recommend her to anyone who needs a sitter :)

Crystal took great care of our Mini Schnauzer, house sitting for us for a week. She provided photos daily, as requested. And the house appears to be even cleaner than we left it. We will definitely request Crystal for our future doggy care needs.

Vanessa was absolutely amazing and I can’t recommend her enough! 🐾❤️ She kept us updated with lots of pictures, videos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. What really stood out was how much she genuinely cared for our pets. 🥹 It truly felt like she loved them just as much as we do. She has such a big heart, and knowing she also volunteers with the Humane Society says so much about the kind of person she is. 🐶🐱💕 Our pets were happy, well cared for, and so loved. You can’t go wrong booking Vanessa. She is truly fantastic! ⭐️

Alexis was amazing! I've always done check-ins and never used house-sitting, and Alexis was so helpful and responsive during the booking process, along with the meet-and-greet and planning process. She also communicated frequently during my trip, and as a bonus, she made a gorgeous drawing of my sweet pup, and left it as a surprise. My next house/pet sitter WILL be her!

Allison is great! From the moment that I reached out to her to stay with Toby, she has been so professional and sweet. Toby warmed up to Allison pretty quickly and I could tell he was happy and well taken care of. I love that Allison sent me so many pictures of Toby while I was on my trip because I did miss him a lot! Toby and I would be happy to have Allison stay over again!

Ana is fantastic pet sitter and took incredible great care of my two dogs, handling their food, medication, and gave them plenty of love and attention. They also had a chance to interact with her dog Sadie, who is extremely chill and gets along well with other dogs. She provided me with frequent updates and pictures and is my goto for rover sits.

This was my first time using Rover, and it was also my girls' first time being watched by someone they didn't know, so I was definitely a little nervous. Anita was incredibly quick to respond to my messages and was so flexible when we were running behind schedule on the day of our booking. From the moment we met her, she made me feel completely at ease. Our pups absolutely LOVED her! Anita was wonderful about keeping me updated throughout the evening with messages and photos, and it was obvious our girls were having the best time. Our little one is still a puppy and can be pretty timid while she's figuring out the world around her, but with Anita she looked so comfortable, happy, and confident. She even lost her FIRST TOOTH while Anita was watching her! Anita actually saved it for me, and I was so incredibly grateful because I've never experienced that milestone with a dog before. It meant so much to me that she thought to do that. Overall, we had the best experience, and I truly couldn't have asked for a better first Rover booking. I can't wait to book with Anita again whenever we're in the area. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of our girls—you were absolutely AMAZING! ❤️🐾

Sarah was awesome! She watched our dog and cat for 10 nights and you could tell they were more than comfortable with her. She made them feel very loved and she was exceptionally helpful with our dog who has bad anxiety with fireworks. She was extremely communicative and sent great pictures and updates. She even helped water all of our plants and the house was just as clean as we left it. We will definitely use Sarah again!

Andrea was absolutely incredible! My dog has extreme separation anxiety, and she went above and beyond to make him feel safe and comfortable. She stepped in at the last minute over a holiday weekend, completely saving us when we needed help most. She was attentive, reliable, communicative, and sent frequent updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She treated my dog like her own, was incredibly responsible, kept everything clean, and was always willing to help in any way she could. Andrea truly exceeded every expectation. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable. We are so grateful for her and will definitely book with her again!

Elijah was fantastic! I have a rescue pitbull who can sometimes get spooked by strangers coming into the house. I asked Elijah to meet us a day early so I could introduce them properly and he was happy to do so. While he was dog sitting he sent a ton of cute photos of the pups and updated me periodically so I knew everything was going smoothly. He’s the first dog sitter I’ve trusted outside of family members and everything went great! 10/10 highly recommend!

Abigail was an amazing Rover - highly recommend. This was our first time using Rover and she did a great job educating on how the process works. She requested a meet and greet beforehand which was amazing for us both. We have a 6 month golden retriever who is still very much in puppy phase, Abigail was really patient and attentive. She stayed at our house so our dog had minimal change - we appreciated the in home care, somewhat last minute. Abigail sent multiple photos and videos a day, putting our mind at ease. She was extremely communicative and 10/10 to work with + our puppy seemed to love her. Recommend to anyone needed a Rover, will absolutely be booking her again!
