“Penny was my favorite sitter so far. She was great at communicating before, during, and after the trip. She left my house almost better than it was before I left. But most importantly, she bonded with my cats. I felt completely at ease while away because I could tell by her messages and photos that she genuinely liked my cats. Bonus... She also has a sense of humor. I will definitely be booking with Penny again.”

“Paige was great! We came home to a very happy kitty, and she was excellent about communication and sending photos/updates throughout the week. Would definitely recommend!”

“Kristina did a fantastic job coming and staying with my dog. She sent multiple videos and kept me up to date throughout my trip. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Rachel was awesome! She was great at communicating and kept me well updated while I was away. My pup was happy and content in her care. She was super flexible with my last minute scheduling. She did an awesome job.”

“Rhys was wonderful! He kept us updated with adorable photos, took great care of our dogs, and left the house very clean. We felt totally comfortable knowing everything was in good hands. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog watcher!”

“Kristin was wonderful with Florence, and us as nervous puppy owners leaving our girl with someone new for the first time. She sent photos and text updates throughout the evening to keep us posted. ❤️”

“Gretchen has done a great job sitting with my male Great Pyrenees. She has sat with him three times now. She sends me photos of him and updates me about him while I'm gone.”

“Sarah was incredibly patient with our Penny girl. Penny had met and interacted with her before the house sitting, but was a bit skiddish when Sarah came. She kept in constant contact, applied recommended solutions and they found a rhythm pretty quickly! Felt extremely comfortable with Sarah’s care in our home! Thanks for your care and patience with our pup!!! Would definitely book again!”


“Julie and Jared took great care of our dog, Ruby! We were gone a week, and I was worried about Ruby getting anxious about us being gone, but she was a happy, unstressed girl when we got home. Julie was great about making sure Ruby got a twice daily medication, she sent me lots of text updates and pictures, and they went on walks in our neighborhood, which Ruby loves. We came home to a cleaner house than we left - Jared even washed windows on one whole side of the house, and they looked amazing when we came home. They were easy to communicate with, took notes and asked questions, and they took really good of Ruby. We’d never left her that long before, and I’m not only relieved at how well it went, I would totally book them again if we need a dog sitter.”

“Paige was such a gift! We loved all the photo updates while we were away and it's clear Paige is quite the cat whisperer. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our girls 🥰”

“Liv was beyond awesome with all three of our fur babies! It was the first time we had ever used Rover and I chose Liv by the reviews that were left for them. Liv was respectful of our home and took good care of everything and would txt us with any questions where to find things If needed. We got txt, video or pictures everyday of our pets. Liv loved them as if their own ♥️ We have a Husky who is super strong and Liv handled him like a champ so if you have any concerns about being able to handle a dog who is strong and pulls have no doubt that Liv is the right person for the job ?. I am so glad I was able to find the right person for our pets and felt at ease leaving them for 7 days under Liv's care. We will diffentinely hire Liv again for any long get away that we arent able to take our Pup with us. When we got home from our long flight journeys Liv had baked us an amazing egg dish that was so much appreciated and delicious ? We'd like to thank Liv for being so great with our 2 cats,Husky and taking good care of our home ?”

“Judi was great with our nervous pup who hates to be alone. She was a very conscientious houseguest and communicated with us regularly about how our girl was doing. We're really happy we booked her.”


“Rachel was amazing! She did a great job with our cats and dog. We unexpectedly needed a second overnight pet sitter, she was quick to respond to my request. Thankfully, it worked with her schedule. It was a relief to know someone familiar with our pets was able to care for them again.”

“This is the first time we have used Beth and she was amazing!!! We came to a very happy dog and a very clean house. We will definitely be using Beth in the future for pet sitting!”

“Kari and Maggie were a good team, making sure my dog Finn had companionship and care. Kati was responsive and took good care of the house too. Finn will miss them until next time. Thanks, Kari!”

“Emma did an AWESOME job! She kept us updated with pictures and our cat who never trusts anyone was totally content and happy with Emma and hung out with her all weekend. One of our dogs has to take medication and Emma was very professional and had all the medical stuff under control. Emma did a fantastic job and we will absolutely ask her to watch our two dogs and cat again!”

“My animals (2 dogs and a crabby cat) loved Carolyn. In fact she came over a few days after I returned and the were so excited to see her. They definitely got a lot of attention. She sent lots of pictures which I really appreciated and communicated everyday on how their day was going. I appreciated her taking good care of my fur babies.”

We could not be happier with the care our dog received. Our dog is anxious and takes many meds. Our dog requires a lot of patience and attention and Jessica was absolutely amazing with our dog! Frequent updates and pictures gave us real peace of mind and kept us at ease. Jessica made our dog feel safe and comfortable! When we got home, our dog looked taken care of and our house looked cleaned and piked up. We highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter! PS - It was dry and hot outside and we asked Jessica to water out plants. She agreed without hesitation.

Lauren was the first sitter I’ve utilized through Rover.com and I was very pleased. She stayed with my 6-year-old lab (Odin) for six days during which time she had to interface with construction crews, neighbors, and miscellaneous issues. Lauren responded immediately to all my communications which I appreciated. Odin seemed well taken care of during my absence. I’ll certainly engage her again.

We were hesitant to find a sitter for our pup via Rover as we only have left our dog Douglas with family/friends in the past, but we are so glad we found Erica! With her background as a groomer, she knows how to handle dogs very well, especially bigs one who has bursts of energy! She was very responsive, trusting, and kept us updated pictures! Would definitely book with her again!

Abby did an outstanding job, house sitting with my Winnie. I was unable to be with Winnie the 4th of July weekend, which is a really hard time for her. But Abby did an excellent job of communicating and working to figure out how to calm her and keep her safe. She was clearly kind to Winnie, asked questions for clarification and went above and beyond to love and care for her. Abby sent pictures and communicated with me several times each day. I would trust Abby to watch Winnie again.

Rhys was wonderful! He kept us updated with adorable photos, took great care of our dogs, and left the house very clean. We felt totally comfortable knowing everything was in good hands. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful dog watcher!

Abi is simply fantastic. She has taken care of our dogs twice, and the second time she came in, they actually ran to her and gave her kisses they like her so much. She gives constant picture and video updates, is always accessible, and left our house cleaner than we did!
Paige was easy to get in touch with, both before and during the sit. She is warm and friendly, and the cats took to her immediately. She send us numerous pictures and updates throughout the three night sit, so we knew our girls were in good hands. She went above and beyond, and left the place in great shape. Would love to work with her again!
We truly lucked out with Julie when we asked her to start dog sitting for us about 4 years ago now. She is reliable, knowledgeable about pets and their needs, and truly cares for the animals and people she works with. Our dog Kona absolutely adores Julie and gets so excited whenever she comes to visit. We have tried boarding in facilities a couple times, but she just gets so anxious to be away from her space, so we are very thankful that Julie is able to come to us and give Kona the 1:1 attention and care she needs.

Liz was wonderful! She was relaxed, kind, comforting, and understanding with me as I was trying to take care of last minute details before I left to go out of town. She was very good with my nearly 17 year old dog, Sonny. Liz treated him gently and sweetly and put me at ease. While I was gone, she touched base with me twice daily and asked questions when needed. I felt relaxed that Sonny was in good hands. I will certainly use her again. Grateful!
