“Catherine took great care me of our dog and communicated well and sent pictures during her five night stay. The house was in good shape and everything in order. I would definitely use her again.”

“Taylor was lovely! Our house was clean when we got back despite our gremlins running amok in our absence. She was communicative everyday and our babies loved on her and snuggled with her too. ♡”

“Stephanie was great! She helped us out when we were in a sitting bind and provided us with a lot of updates which made us feel at ease while we were away.”
“Yenny stayed with my pups for 2 weeks and did a wonderful job!! She stayed in constant communication with me, was so sweet and kind to my dogs, and took care of my house as if it was her own. I would happily book with her again!”

“Jennifer is a true professional and pet caretaker, but someone of her caliber does not often find their way in pet care. Her talents far exceed the average pet sitter. A gem!”

“Orima was wonderful with our kitties! She was very attentive and spent a lot of time with them. She sent us photos everyday along with updates. I am very happy with her level of care and will definitely be reaching out to her for future opportunities. Thanks Orima!”

“Teagan was amazing. Petey was so well taken care of, she even took him on a hike, I came home to a very happy dog. I felt very comfortable leaving him with Teagan.”

“Just was great with Dutch he kept me updated through the holiday and made sure to send plenty of pictures! If you ever need someone to take care of you’re pup Justin will be the perfect match.”


“Alyssa did a great job watching our pups! She sent us lots of updates and pictures to put us at ease while we were away. We will definitely have her again! My very timid pup liked her immediately when meeting her.”

“Andrea was amazing with my dog Parker. She was very loving and spent a lot of time with him. Parker can be picky when it comes to food and she was great, she made sure he ate all his meals at his time. He was also healing from a hotspot and she took great care of it, it was all heal by the time I came back home. I could tell Parker had a good time with her. I would recommend Andrea 100%. We will be booking again with her for sure.”

“Adam was amazing and took great care of our girl, Bug. We have been looking for a dog sitter for over two years as our dog is dog aggressive and can be a lot to handle. Adam quickly learned to use both the e-collar and pinch collar given to us by our trainers. He sent us updates and followed our instructions to a tee. He was an amazing dog sitter and truly cares about your pets. I couldn’t thank him enough for staying with Bug. If you are skeptical about having someone watch your dog or stay in your house, Adam is a great fit and cares for your pets and possessions. We came back to a happy girl and clean apartment. Thank you, Adam!”

“Melanie did a good job with my boys (Persian cats). She sent daily updates and pictures as requested! We came home to some instant pictures that she had taken and left for us which was very sweet!”

“Chrissonna is truly the best, my dogs love her and they are picky ladies! They are so well cared for and comfortable with her that when I got home after a full week away they acted like I had just come home from work. Happy, healthy, and wanting to talk me into snack distribution! I feel absolutely terrible that sometime while I was gone my air conditioning went out, but no one seems worse for wear.”

“Camryn was amazing. She checked in regularly & sent photos of my 3 pups. I could tell they were having a blast with her. They are all senior gals, the oldest being 17. When I got home, they were all so happy, everything was clean (including them! Which is hard when you're battling incontinence and bladder issues). Camryn is top notch and my gals cannot wait for me to go out of town again!!!”

“Brittney did fantastic with my 2 dogs. They seem very happy when I came home. Brittney also kept my home as she found it. Definitely recommend Brittany and will consider her to sit my dogs again.”

“Amelia provided excellent care for my pets while I was away. She was punctual, responsible, and went above and beyond with feeding, walking, and giving them plenty of love. Communication was great, and she sent updates, communicated her concerns, and sent photos. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands.”
“We were so pleased with Airym’s attention to our dog while we were out of town. The daily updates and photos reassured us that he was well looked after. I would highly recommend booking with her!!”

Downtown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Courtney was amazing and made me feel at ease the entire time she was with my pets! I received so many pictures and updates of how they were doing. She left my home very clean after staying the weekend which I really appreciated! I will absolutely be booking with Courtney again!

Regan was so great with Griffin! He is anxious, but she was extremely patient with him, willing to meet with us before the stay to get to know him better before watching him over night. I got daily pictures and updates, and she left our apartment as clean if not cleaner than we left it. We’ll absolutely book with Regan again!

Cindy was so great with our tank! It was the first time we’ve left our puppy and we were a little nervous but Cindy was great with communicating how he was and sending us pictures and videos. It looks like our boy had a great time while we were gone and did lots of playing/cuddling. I’d recommend Cindy to anyone!

John was great! We booked last minute. I went with him based on his reviews, and they’re all accurate. He was prompt and our dog took to him immediately. We got photos while we were out and Faust was so relaxed when we got back. We will definitely book with him again in the future. Honestly, 10 out of 10.

Madison was SO incredible attentive. She constantly kept us updated with pictures and messages. It was our first time leaving our girls with a rover and Madison truly was the best possible sitter we could have gotten. Madison was not only very communicative, but also very active with our animals— when we came home, our dog literally sat by the door waiting for Madison for the next day. If Madison is free, you want to book her! (But now before we do please! ❤️)
