“Lilly was outstanding with Buster. She sent many pictures and kept me constantly updated. Even better was the house was in perfect condition when I returned and the dog was expertly taken care of. I would HIGHLY recommend!”


2. Steven C.
“Amazing in-home care for our dogs! Steve always goes above and beyond to make us and our dogs as comfortable as possible. Many updates and great communication! Steve is a joy to work with and our dogs are always excited to see him. Thank you!”


3. Jessica D.

“Jessica came in clutch when another dog sitter fell through only a few days from me leaving town. She was very flexible, accommodating, and took great care of my best friend. Her generosity and help ensured I was able to get home to my family for a few days during Christmas. She was very responsive and helped make a stressful situation less stressful. I would definitely recommend Jessica.”


4. Kara T.

“We’ve had Kara watch our fur baby several times at the house, and as usual, she leaves it spotless, and always keeps us up to date with the pup. Thank you, Kara!!”


5. Elizabeth G.

“Liz was wonderful! She went above and beyond to make sure our timid dog was comfortable and that we knew she was cared for. I definitely recommend Liz as a dog sitter.”


6. Heather M.


“Heather has watched out dog Zeus on multiple occasions, and she is absolutely perfect! Always takes our dog out for walks, makes sure he gets lots of play time and snuggles. Could not recommend her more.”


7. Lisa A.
About: I am passionate, I feel like dogs want to play, to go outside and want attention. I am that person that will fulfill that job. Let me be that person to help you. I will treat your dog with all the love, respect and care like it was my own. I’m currently working full time with flexible hours and my off days are usually week days to accommodate your pets needs and treat them with love. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I also have a kitten that I’ve raised from being a bottle baby so I am familiar with almost types of pets.


8. Grayson G.

“Grayson went above and beyond! My dogs are my whole world and I felt so much relief that they were being well taken care of and given lots of love... I got lots of pictures and text updates. We could not have asked for any better and we are going to be using Gray for the foreseeable future. I really dont know how to express my gratitude”


9. Faith M.

“Faith did a great job taking care of Pear and the house. Pear was well cared for, and everything was in good shape when we returned. I reached out a couple of times for updates, and she responded promptly. Overall, we appreciated her care and would happily consider working with her again!”


10. Makayla R.

“Thank you! We’re so grateful for your good care of the little monsters!!!”


11. Douglas D.

“If I could leave a 10 ⭐️ review I would!! Douglas is just that wonderful and truly goes above and beyond to care for your furry loved ones🥰. He is incredibly thoughtful and kind and my pups sensed that from the first interaction with him. My Bubba was so excited when he came over to drop off the house keys that I thought it was his best pup friend from across the street at the door😂. He acted like he wanted to leave with Douglas🥹. I know I have found our favorite sitter❤️”


12. Benjamin H.

“Hands down the best pup sitter I've ever had! Communicated each day to let us know how our fur babies were doing and sent pictures of them too! Will definitely have him back to watch our fur babies! If you need a sitter, Benjamin is your man!”


13. William V.
“William has cared for my cat, ash boots, while I was away for a week in June. He cleaned the litter box, fed him kibble, and wet food. He made sure that my cat wasn’t lonely and even brushed his fur which was very helpful since he’s a domestic long hair who tends to get hair balls when it’s not maintained properly. I will have him take care of ash boots again this month and I’m happy to have a sitter who I can trust in my home.”


14. Bri H.

“Bri was punctual and very communicative! She was kind and caring to my entire zoo, and was great with both my timid puppy and my difficult diabetic dog. I've been through a dozen Rover pet sitters but Bri is the first one I trust to take care of my pets the way I would. I'll definitely be requesting Bri again!”


15. Jennifer S.


“We have two pandemic pups who we've never been away from and had never used Rover before, so we were a bit nervous about finding a sitter—we're so thankful we found Jennifer! She was responsive, reliable, provided updates (and pics!), and put our minds at ease while we were away. Even our very skittish rescue hound who is afraid of everyone was pining for Jennifer after she left! I highly recommend Jennifer and we will definitely book with her again!”


16. Aleyah M.
About: I have a 2 year old pit and she is the best. Super energetic, loves to cuddle, loves people and other dogs, and is extremely smart. I am raising and training her myself. She knows all her basic commands like sit, stay, come, down, and heel. We have begun her off leash training! I also have experience with larger animals such as horses. I have worked with horses for about 6 years on and off. I am a student who is taking a few classes at a time who has a lot of time on her hands. I am able to do morning and afternoon visits and walks because my classes are in the evening. I will administer medicine if need be, feed, and fill water bowls for drop-in visits. On walks, they will be no more than 30 minutes.


17. Aurelia B.


“Wonderful! Everything went well, Coco appeared to be very happy with Aurelia every time we saw her spend time with her! Aurelia sent photo's while we were away. We were able to communicate when we wanted to, and Aurelia was quick to respond. We have planned another stay! Very Satisfied.”


18. Tracey B.
“I have known Tracey for a very long time. You couldn't ask for a better person. She is very responsible, professional and kind person. She treats her own animals like they are her children. She's always had a soft spot for animals for as long as I have known her.”


19. Linda S.

“Linda was amazing! She was so friendly, took the time to meet our animals beforehand, and sent pictures while we were away. I'm very happy with how much love and care she showed our animals and when we came back they were clearly so loved by her that they didn't even seem to notice we were gone. Thank you Linda for taking such good care of our babies.”


20. Keith S.

“My second time having Keith and Ruth keep my fur-babies. I absolutely feel comfortable and I do not worry and stress if the dogs have anxiety or are taken care of or are loved. Not thinking about that while away is Priceless! They send pics and keep in touch. I trust them with my babies and my home. They will be my first thought whenever I need someone to sit!”
