“Madison is the best cat sitter we have ever had! She came over a few days beforehand to meet the cats and get all of the information needed. During our time away, she was above and beyond with the communication and sent several pictures from each visit. And the cats loved her! If and when we need a sitter again, we will definitely be going with Madison - 10/10 experience!”

“Savannah is a phenomenal sitter! She was super accommodating with my last-minute trip, and our two emotionally needy animals absolutely loved her. She's personable, professional, and puts you at ease. She asked great questions at our meet & greet, took notes, and made sure she had all the info she needed for successful visits. I felt totally confident with our pets in her care, and would recommend her in a heartbeat. So so so pleased! Thanks Savannah!”

“Johanna is my go-to and I'd give them more than 5 stars if I could. They're easily the most trustworthy sitter I've ever had. They follows my cat's care instructions closely and does a fantastic job at providing detailed updates and lots of photos as well, so I can rest assured he's in good hands. Most importantly, Oscar adores her!”

“I’ve used a few different sitters on Rover before and have had great experiences, but Brett truly went above and beyond. He sent tons of pictures during each drop-in with the cutest (and funniest) commentary, which made being away so much easier. He even made friends with my cat who normally hides from strangers — I was shocked! He was also extra gentle and loving with my senior dog, which meant so much to me. It’s clear he genuinely cares. I would absolutely book him again and highly recommend him.”

“Aaliyah was great with my Beau. He’s very passionate about his pool time and Aaliyah made him a happy boy by playing fetch with him in the pool. She was very communicative which I really appreciate.”

“Lizzy was great with our dogs and kept us updated the whole trip with photos and messages letting us know how they were doing! I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her in the future”

“Sarah is wonderful! She is really great with our girls. Especially our senior cat, who is at the end of her life! She is thorough and asks a lot of questions, to ensure the best care for our babies! Thank you Sarah!! 😊”

“Once again Deidre was amazing with my pups! I think they recognize her now because they are starting to come out of their kennel for her with no issues! Which is a huge accomplishment for them.”

“Kylie was fabulous. We left her with our cat who already wasn’t feeling well and ended up getting worse. She was so great communicating and getting our baby to the vet. Wouldn’t hesitate booking her again.”

“Melanie did a great job taking care of my very unfriendly cat Daisy! She sent lots of pictures & updates, which I enjoyed getting. Melanie brought my mail in & took my garbage out to the curb for pick up too. She went above & beyond! I am so happy to have found her to take care of Daisy when I am gone!”


“Jerrie wad the best. Always attentive to Mike's needs as well as keeping me updated with pics and messages of how things were going. I have recommended her to my friends and family.”
“Annmarie was fabulous! I would use her again! She is thoughtful and caring about your pet. Sent pictures and you can tell she cares for your family pet kindly. So glad to have found her!!! Thank you”

“helena is not just a great dog sitter but really helped me out when i was in a bind with losing my keys. can not thank her or recommend her enough !”

“Erica is a great sitter! She is diligent, thoughtful and caring. I didn’t have a worry at all when I went on vacation since I knew my pets were in her hands. She sends daily check in reports and pictures which was great peace of mind. I highly recommend Erica as a sitter.”

“Maggie did an incredible job taking care of my dog on a holiday week while I was traveling! She was super responsive, gave great updates and took lots of pictures. She went the extra mile when my dog had a slight health issue and even called me to make sure I had all the details and felt comfortable with next steps.”

“Hannah has a way with cats and dogs. They were so happy to meet her and I knew I didn't need to worry while I was gone. One of my cats is an older recluse and I was pleased to see in photos that he was relaxed and happy with Hannah. It's a gift to find an "animal" person, and Hannah is one!”

“Jed was very professional and helpful with our pups. He kept us updated on the status of them when he went over to let them out. Thank you so much for the help.”
Downtown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Madison is an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. She took such great care of our cat Lily. She kept us informed every day while we were out of town with updates and pictures for every drop-in. She really put me at ease, knowing our cat was well loved while we were gone. She is very kind and trustworthy and I would definitely have her back again!

Vanessa told fantastic care of our dogs when we were out of the country. She took FANTASTIC photos of them and sent daily updates so we felt very reassured they were in good hands while we were gone! AND our dogs put her through so much drama and she just let it roll off, no big deal! Vanessa is a saint!
Madisyn is really great. She is super organized, asked good questions when meeting the dogs and was very thorough with her sharing about how the dog sit went. My anxiety about leaving my dogs with someone new is completely erased as she was very on top of things. We are definitely looking forward to having her take care of our two dogs again!

Lizzy was an outstanding dog sitter! She took amazing care of my dogs and kept me updated on everything and sent lots of photos! My dogs were super happy to see her highly recommend her as a dog sitter! She even helped with issues involving my fire alarm and stayed for my maintenance people to try and fix it couldn’t have picked a better dog sitter!
Kate did a terrific job and took excellent care of our pets. She went above and beyond what was expected and took the time to bring in a couple packages that were delivered while we were gone and vacuumed up some kitty litter spillage. We would hire her again in a heartbeat and will recommend her to family and friends.
