“Grace is an amazing puppy sitter. This was the first time we used her services at our home when we went on a 3 day trip. She did everything we asked and insured we received puppy updates a couple time each day. We returned home to a very happy puppy and clean house. Highly Recommend Grace and we will use her again in the near future.”
“Loren is the absolute sweetest!! She took great care of all 5 of our furbabies and home. We got so many photo updates and everyone seemed so happy and content which was such a treat since our big boy is normally very stressy when we are gone. She will be our go to from now on!”
“Helped me out in a MAJOR way when I had issues with my international travel!! Phone and passport were stolen and Jonathon helped me get my baby girl settled with a friend of mine so I could sort out my travel issues w/o worrying about my dog. Life saver!!!”
“We’ve booked Tate for drop ins previously and always had a great experience, this was our first time booking her for a house sitting for a week, which is also the longest we’ve had our dogs with a sitter! Everything seemed to go without a hitch and Tate kept in touch with updates and photos despite the 16 hour time difference (international vacation). It was nice to be able to enjoy time with my husband and know the pups were in good hands. The dogs even cried and ran to meet her when we met up for my spare key, as if they didn’t just see her a few days ago! I think that speaks volumes about the care and love Tate puts into her clients and their pets.”
“Andrew went above and beyond! Not only did he take great care of Penny and Whiskey, but he took great care of the house, and I’m pretty sure it’s cleaner than when we left. I’ll be rebooking without hesitation the next time we need a house sitter”
“JuliAnne did a great job with my 3 dogs. She made sure they were always fed on time and that my senior dog received all of his medications on time, which sometimes meant an extra trip to our house to give them. She also sent photos and checked in a lot. We're so happy to have found her and will be using her for all our trips going forward!”
“Ashley did great with our two pups! She kept us updated and sent pictures which is very appreciated. We have an Aussie that is very high energy but Ashley handled her very well. Thanks Ashley!”
“Maycee took great care of Jupiter. He doesn’t like many people but he loved Maycee. That told me how good she is with dogs. She sent me the cutest pictures of him while we were gone. I will definitely be using Maycee again.”
“Cole was exceptional in taking care of our dogs while we were away. He sent several updates a day without us prompting, gave them walks, and left our house clean. We most definitely will reach out to Cole on future trips.”
“Alex did a wonderful job w/ my now 2 cats and dog. She very communicative and the animals love her. When I come home they all seem to be very content and not stressed from me being away which makes me very happy”
“Blake was communicative, kind, and very considerate. I received regular photos and updates and Blake went above and beyond with special walks and extra time with my 13 yr old chihuahua that needs more frequent attention and potty breaks. Blake did a home stay for us for 6 days and I could not tell he’d been here - he took excellent care of my home and my fur baby. Will 100% rebook and would 100% recommend.”
“Karen helped me get out of a bind when my dog got injured and I couldn’t take work off. She came and spent the day with Daisy and when I got home she was happy as can be. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth dog Sat our pup Timber and he seemed loved every moment with her! And she was very communicative with us as we were on our trip out of town, we would book again!”
“Jeff was extremely kind and considerate. He took great care of the pups and they were very happy. We have not always had a good sitter experience, but Jeff was absolutely wonderful. He kept us updated, made us feel confident the pups were in good hands and even helped us out when our return flight was cancelled, and we were delayed. An excellent experience! We will be rebooking!”
“Stephanie was fantastic! She is definitely a lover of dogs and treated our old lady Miss P with love and kindness. Stephanie is a pleasure to work with and kept in touch during her stay. She even kept our plants watered! I will definitely work with her again when the need arises.”
“This was our first experience with Rover and Vicky was great! We have a VERY energetic 85 pound 2 year old Golden Retriever so were worried about leaving him with someone who could handle his energy. Vicky was so great with him, as well as our two cats. I got updates during the week she was at our house along with pictures showing our fur babies relaxed and happy in our home. I will absolutely use her for future vacations. I get very anxious anytime I need to leave my animals but I felt comfortable with Vicky as soon as we met at the initial meet and greet at our house.”
“Tatiana was an amazing sitter! She was very thorough and asked questions when she came for a meet and greet. She kept us posted throughout our time away and also sent pictures of our pup. Would highly recommend and we intend to use her again in the future!”

Cottonwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Stephanie was an absolute pleasure to work with. We had someone cancel on us last minute and Stephanie was available and excited to help us out on such short notice. She kept us updated with pictures of our puppy and made us feel super comfortable as first time rover users! We highly recommend Stephanie for all your animal needs and will most definitely be reaching out in the future!
Morgan was great! She is Daisy's new best friend! You can tell she really loves animals by the way she approached Daisy and how Daisy knew right away she was a friend. Morgan watched Daisy in our Motorhome in Larkspur Colorado, which is quite a ways from California and next time we are back in the area, myself, my wife, and Daisy, will look forward to seeing her!
Diego watched our dogs for the last couple days of a long international trip. One of our dogs is a rescue with trauma/anxiety special needs and takes a long time to warm up. She needs meds 3 times a day and has a long list of peculiarities. Diego was extremely attentive and patient during our meet and greet, making every effort to understand her needs. Diego was upfront that he didn’t have a ton of experience with anxious dogs. This normally might be a red flag for me since Stella’s issues aren’t ‘JV’ level dog sitting, but I found his candidness actually reassured me and made it easier to communicate freely and make certain we were well matched. Turns out he’s a natural! Diego also came for a visit the day before his stay just to make sure the dogs felt more comfortable when he came to stay. Lastly, when our flight was delayed almost 4 hours, Diego even came over for an extra visit to make sure they weren’t alone too long. Diego was wonderful to work with. Don’t hesitate to book him!!
I'm leaving this review because it's well deserved. I can't say enough about JuliAnne and how pleased I am with the way she took care of my 2 Yorkies. My pets appeared to be happy and a lot less stressed than going off to boarding. She sent pics and the communication was great, she left my house clean and even went as far as to empty the trash. I hope to use JuliAnne for all my hose setting needs
Isabella did so great and Hades looked so good when we got home! We were so nervous leaving him alone overnight but Isabella messaged me updates and pictures on Hades and just overall made everything so easy and reassured us the whole time! 100% booking with her again!
Emily is amazing!! She took such great care of our huskies while out of town for a week. She is great at communicating and sending updates/pictures of our babies. She took great care of the house and left it spotless when we returned. Highly recommend her but just know I get her first ;)
This was our first time booking with Jacob after our original sitter plans fell through—and honestly, it worked out better than we could’ve hoped. Jacob was absolutely amazing with our dogs. He stepped in last minute, followed every instruction perfectly (including giving meds to our little one), and stayed in constant communication the whole time. We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in such capable and caring hands. I would highly recommend Jacob to any pet owner, and we’ll definitely be booking with him again as long as he's available. Thank you for being so awesome, Jacob!
Brigid was amazing! Shes a kind soul with great energy, and she did an excellent job taking care of my two older dogs. She kept me updated with texts and photos throughout the weekend. It felt nice to not have to worry about them. I knew they were in good hands. I 100 percent recommend her! A++
Wow! I don’t know where to start! Most importantly, my dogs were happy, comfortable, and have plenty of exercise! Marcel and her son took amazing care of my sensitive pity and my little old bulldog. Add on that they also not only straightened up the house, but left it cleaner.
