2. Anna M.

“Anna was awesome! Very communicative and my dogs (and rabbit) loved having her stay with them. I was out of the country and she made sure I was updated the whole time. I felt very comfortable and relaxed :) we will definitely be booking with Anna again!”




3. Christopher B.

“Chris was fantastic with my girls! I appreciate his excellent communication, the kindness he showed both my dogs, especially my most sensitive girl. He played tug of war, hung out with them in the back yard, sent me tons of pictures and updated me multiple times a day so I didn't worry. He also watered my plants, brought in the mail, set out my trash and recycling, and left my house clean. Chris is a trustworthy and all around fabulous house and dog sitter!”


4. Samantha R.

“Samantha was so kind, gentle and caring with my Noelle, I could not have asked for a better “babysitter”! I am so grateful to have met her and look forward to working with her again!”


5. Devon W.

“Devon stayed in our home while we were gone for a week. She took such great care of our high energy dog, sent photos, and timely communicated with us on his well being even with the time difference of our destination. Highly recommend using her for your pet sitting needs!”


6. Imani P.


“Imani was amazing with our pups! We were worried to leave them because they haven’t been away from us for a long period of time since the pandemic started. Imani made us feel at ease with all the pics and check-ins, and she’s definitely a true dog lover! One of our dogs in particular is very hit-or-miss with new people, but she warmed up to Imani instantly. Would definitely use her again!”


7. Christina C.
“Christina takes amazing care of my little maci each and every time I need someone to come and watch her. She is reliable, caring and amazing when it comes to caring for your pets. Each time she goes the extra mile and I couldn’t be more thankful to have her watching our dog for over 5 years now !!!!! Anyone would be lucky to have her caring for there pets ! She will truly treat them as her own :)”


8. Jane P.

“Jane was so amazing, caring and meticulous with caring for our 2 dogs (one of which is a senior dog). She sent us detailed updates, photos and videos which giving us peace of mind when we were away on vacation. She left our house cleaner than the way we left it. I am so happy we found a great caretaker for our pups after many failed attempts. Jane was our saving grace and we look forward to using her again! If you would like to hear more about our sit I'm happy to be a referral, she was that good!”




9. Pearl O.

“Was great with the pets. She followed our directions and watched over the house and pets while we were gone. Great with communication and provided pictures of our babies throughout her stay:)”


10. Stephanie S.
“I have a French bulldog and a pitbull and Stephanie watches them when we are on vacation or away for the weekend. She brings them on walks and when they come back from a walk they are out of breath and super happy! She always plays with them and makes sure they are fed and happy. She loves running around the backyard with them and loves walks with them. The pitbull is a big dog and the Frenchie is smaller and she is able to walk them together and control them. She is the most loving and caring dog sitter/owner I know!!!”


11. Julina D.

“Julina was great! She was very responsive, sent lots of updates, and helped make our first experience with Rover a positive one. When she asked if our new dog would be interested in playing and learning from her dog, Loki, we jumped at the chance. They played so well together and our dog came out of his shell. We'll be calling on Julina (and Loki) again.”


12. Alexander I.

“My dogs were very happy, as were we. He left my house spotless. Can’t wait to have him sit for us again.”


13. Kelley R.

“Kelley watched our 2 pups for the day yesterday. She was amazing with our pups, including a 9 week old puppy. She was very pleasant and easy to deal with. She sent us frequent updates and pictures. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Kelley. She put our minds at ease.”


14. Casey V.

“Casey was amazing! She was so kind and responsive, sent so many pictures and was so reliable in terms of communication / coordination / care. I couldn’t have hoped for a better sitter. Would recommend her to anyone.”


15. Hana T. S.

“Hana was a fantastic sitter and I highly recommend her for boarding. She watched my dog Zuzu for a few nights and sent lots of videos and photos, which made me feel comfortable enjoying my trip while my dog was home. She was very thorough and neat, and a very thoughtful dog sitter. I recommend her for all your dog and cat sitting needs. :)”


16. Ali R.

“Ali went beyond our expectations as a sitter. She was wonderful and we are so grateful she was able to stay with our pups over the Thanksgiving holiday. Our pups were in great spirits upon our return and our home was looking great. I would strongly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking again! Thank you Ali!!”


17. Shushma R.
“Hello, Shushma and her family is really awesome!! I took my dogs there and they were so comfortable at their home. They love pets and my dogs loved them. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a clean, safe and loving environment. You can definitely trust them with your pets you won’t regret it 😊”

“Esti was great very communicative and responsible”


19. Stacey C.
“Stacey is a very independent woman that loves and cherishes dogs. She has a family dog that she takes care of very well. Along with her love and appreciation for animals, she is also extremely hard working. I've been able to watch her grow and take initiative in all aspects of her life, most importantly her career. Stacey is very patient and has lots of energy to spare with the dogs. She also works from home which is a bonus when joining Rover. I have no doubt she will succeed with it!”
