“Zerandrian was a great sitter for my two kitties! I was out of town for a week but was so glad to have someone so communicative and reliable watching out for them!”
“Stacie was wonderful at sending lots of pictures of the kitties. I have two sweet, but skittish, cats and they both took to her immediately. I'll be booking her again!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Elizabeth. She came prepared to our meet and greet with a through list of questions about my cat and our home. She was a great communicator and kept me up to date on what was going on with my cat and sent pictures every day. She even brought in my mail, watered my plants, and took out the trash before she left on her last visit. It’s obvious that my cat loved his time with her. I won’t hesitate to use her services again!”
“Jessica watched our kitty while we were away for 5 days and everything went well. She sent pictures and updates, and communication was prompt. No complaints, I would book her again!”
“Megan did an incredible job - following instructions, sending cute photos and lovely messages to describe the visit - giving me great peace of mind during a long trip away. I will definitely be rebooking Megan in the future. Great job Megan! You are a life saver.”
“Julianna has been an amazing pet sitter for my dog Tommy and kitten Oreo. She is an exceptional communicator and has a very keen eye for details. I know I can travel stress free if Julianna is taking care of my loved ones. Recently, Julianna noticed Oreo wasn’t being as playful as usual, I took him to the Vet and he was very constipated. I’m beginning to think Tommy and Oreo prefer Julianna over me!”
“Ryan is great with our dog Wylder. He drops in over the weekend and takes him for walks/potty breaks. He sends photos of him playing and info on what they did. Wylder definitely seems happier and calmer since Ryan has been dropping in.”
“This was my first time using rover for someone to watch my cat and Solange was fantastic! She always communicated with me about drop in times and if anything came up. She always sent so many pictures to ease my anxiety as well! Poe really liked her and it made me happy, she has such good positive energy! Will definitely use again :)”
“Melanie is wonderful. I felt very comfortable leaving my cats with Melanie and even during the first visit when I was there they came right to her.”
“Julie was a fantastic sitter for my 2 cats who both require prescription food — she came over for a meet and greet to learn how their special feeders work, and was very attentive to their needs the entire trip. Thank you Julie!”
“Annie was wonderful with our cats! I wish the cats had been a little more friendly for her, but they (and we) very much appreciate the care she took with them. Thanks!!”
“Deedee took excellent care of my puppy! She took so many adorable pictures and wrote up a cute description of their day. It put me at ease to know my puppy was in great hands. I will definitely be using her again! Thank you Deedee!”
“Andre was great with our two cats and made sure they were well taken care of during our trip. Great communication. Definitely recommended and will be looking to rebook when we need to!”

Couldn’t recommend Elizabeth enough! She was watched my dog and 2 cats while I traveled internationally. She was incredibly accommodating and communicative. This was our first time leaving our dog for so long and she did a wonderful job of making him feel comfortable and relaxed. One of my cats also is usually incredibly shy around strangers and Elizabeth is the only sitter I’ve used from Rover who he comes out for. Our flight got delayed and Elizabeth was very accommodating to the change in the schedule. We are so appreciative!
Kinsey was wonderful with my two dogs during her drop-in visit. One of my dogs is very shy and apprehensive around new people, but Kinsey was incredibly patient and took extra time to help her feel comfortable and safe. I really appreciated how attentive and understanding she was. I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in her care, and I will definitely be booking with Kinsey again.
Solange was a godsend for me when I unexpectedly adopted a 5 week old kitten the week before my beach trip. She did all of my special request for my little guy and the check ins throughout the day helped ease my worries so I could enjoy my trip. Trust your animals are in good hands with her! I will absolutely be booking with her again for help in the future
remington was absolutely phenomenal! my baby girl is having bathroom issues and has to take medications, and he helped tremendously with that! i felt so at ease knowing that my girl was being taken care of so kindly. would definitely recommend and book again!!
Julie did a wonderful job taking care of our two kitties while we had to travel last minute! We were super nervous to leave as our little kitty girl had been sick the week before we left, but Julie put us at ease and made sure she was well taken care of. She updated us regularly with pictures and check-in notes which made a world of a difference! Genuinely cannot recommend her enough!
