She was amazing, was able to book her last minute and she was very good with communication. She sent photos and videos while she was over watching our dog and even left a note! Would highly recommend and will definitely be using her again!

Hannah was amazing with our pups. She was at our house during a storm which our one dog is afraid of and she made him feel safe and comfortable. Hannah is communicative and friendly. We know our pups were happy with her while we were away. We will be using Hannah's services again

Our experience with Sydney was great from start to finish. She took the time to understand our dogs’ routines and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout. When we got home, our younger pup kept looking around for her, which really says it all about how comfortable and happy the girls felt. We came back to two relaxed dogs and couldn’t be more grateful. We’d gladly book again and recommend their services.

Gabbi is the best!! Our dogs are high energy and she was an amazing help in keeping them entertained while we were away. She kept us informed with pictures/texts and she really made us feel more comfortable being away from our fur babies. We would definitely use Gabbi again and would highly recommend to anyone needing a great dog/house sitter!!

This was the second time we've worked with Heather and we look forward it every time! She provides detailed updates throughout the day, checks in when necessary, sends the cutest pictures of our dog, and most importantly, makes our dog feel loved while we're away. She handles working with an elderly dog with grace, especially given his medication schedule and separation anxiety. We know our dog is in fabulous capable hands while we're gone. She's a delight to have as a house guest and goes above and beyond expectations. Thanks for your help, Heather!

Lyla went above and beyond for our two dogs (mini poodle and pitbull mix) while we were away for a long weekend. She came to meet them a few days before we left and took them on a walk so they could acclimate to her. She kept us updated with messages and pictures, took them on two walks per day, did tricks with them, and kept them safe and entertained the whole weekend. We'll absolutely be booking with her again!!

Lisa responded quickly to a last minute request to watch our dog in our home for the weekend. Sadie 🐶 loved her immediately, which is not her typical reaction to new folks, and so did we! She was kind, respectful of our home, and worked to put us all at ease as Sadie can be a bit anxious and this was the first time we’d ever left her with anyone she doesn’t know well. She provided updates and photos, and worked around our schedule for a meet and greet and our departure/return times. We will absolutely book Lisa again the next time we need a sitter.

There is no rating high enough for Sarah. From pre-booking to the home visit, to watching our home and our fur babies while we were on vacation, Sarah was amazing. Her situation was unique that in addition to taking care of our adult cats, we asked her to take care of a (somewhat friendly) mama cat and her 5 week old kittens. Sarah graciously offered her time for 24/7 care. And of course, just when we thought all was going smoothly, a hornet appeared in our finished basement which is unusual. This is where mama and babies are located. Then another one appeared - VERY unusual. When the third one appeared, not so far from the kittens, Sarah sprang into action and, together, we figured out a safe solution to draw any potential bees inside the home to outside the home. Sarah was a real trooper and took care of the home and pets like they were her own. No more bees appeared and life returned to “normal”. Well, as normal as can be for a home with cats and kittens. I can vouch for Sarah and she will be our first choice for future house and pet care needs. Sarah is friendly, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator and our fur babies loved her.

Rosie was awesome. She came for a meet and greet and hung out long enough for the dogs to know her. My one dog even tried to nip her, and it didn’t scare her away! She sent updates daily, and I could tell that she was actually hanging out with them all day, opposed to some sitters I’ve had in the past. She was willing and able to give my older dog medication, and we came home to a bunch of happy animals! Will definitely use her in the future :)

I am very happy I chose Mamie to dogsit my Rosie for my week long vacation. She sent regular updates about Rosie’s mood, activities and cute little anecdotes, as well as lots of pictures. Besides the updates Mamie was quick to reply to messages and was even so kind as to pick up a refill that Rosie needed. I would definitely rebook her :)

Lindsey was a fabulous pet sitter for our two dogs and cat! This was our first time using Rover, and we could not have asked for a better experience! Lindsey was professional, attentive, detail-oriented, and truly treated our pets like they were her own. She spent lots of time with them inside and outside, took them on nice walks, and kept us updated throughout our trip with photos and videos that alleviated our worries. They didn’t seem to miss us at all when we got home! Would recommend Lindsey to anyone looking for someone to care for your pets - she is wonderful! We will certainly be reaching out to her again.

Matthew is quite simply the GOAT. It was our very first booking with him and our plans unfortunately kept changing chaotically, yet throughout scheduling updates and frantic messaging on our part, the only thing he cared about was making sure he was a good fit for our dogs. That has never happened before in our time on Rover. His communication, understanding, and calm demeanor during our Meet and Greet earned immediate trust from both us AND our dogs. the entire booking + stay it felt like his priority was making sure both we and our dogs felt comfortable and cared for. Matthew has set the tone for the kind of care we’d want in any future booking and we’d trust him with our pets again in a heartbeat <3
