“Karilou was great! She sent a lot of pictures and updates. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with her. We were able to enjoy a weekend trip without worrying about our dogs.”

“Rosalinda is great! She has walked my pup, aeriel, multiple times and has now house sat with her for a while week while I was out of town.Aeriel is an older dog that requires a lot of attention, and has food and medicine requirements; Aeriel is also dog aggressive and Rosalinda asked the questions to make sure she kept my pup and other animals safe. She took excellent care of her and treated her and my house with care and respect. I actually think my house is cleaner than before I left. She kept me updated with pictures every day and if there were any questions she reached out. I would use Rosalinda again in a heartbeat if I ever needed someone to house sit or walk ariel. She is amazing!”

“Brittany was absolutely amazing! I felt completely comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care. The pictures and regular updates gave me so much peace of mind and reassured me they were doing great without me. This was my first time leaving them for four days (longest time before this was 6 hours), and thanks to Brittany, I now have a trusted sitter I can rely on for future trips. I’m so grateful!”

“Our eperience with Jayna couldn't have been better! Jayna did way more than what was expected. Our baby girl (Lani) was spoiled and well taken care of. Jayna took Lani on her daily walks, snuggled her with blankets at night, sent photo updates of our pup twice a day, and left our home honestly, in better conditions than when we left it! Jayna went above an beyond by bringing in our mail, being on a look out for incoming packages, keeping our backyard grass clean, and leaving my kitchen counters spotless. Couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Thanks so much!”

“Grace showed up on time and made sure that my cat was fed and taken care of. She was also so sweet and understanding to how shy my kitty was. Would definitely recommend her pet care services!”

“Sabrina is brilliant. She is genuine & so extremely kind. Our dude fell in love with her from their first meet & greet. The biggest stressor when we travel is making sure our guy is well cared for — and thanks to Sabrina, that anxiety completely disappeared. We knew he was in great hands every step of the way. Woodford decided she was part of the family from Day 1. Cutest photos & updates along the way. We are very lucky to have found her.”


“Laura did a great job communicating withme during her time with my baby. She took her on the walks like promised. Lucy seemed very happy with Laura. She even wanted th belly rubs so you know she was happy. Most definitely I will use Laura’s service again.”

“Kristin is incredible! My dog is obsessed with her. Onyx is so excited when she comes to stay with him. She’s great at communicating and sends so many pics, I never have to worry when I’m traveling. She’s responsible and reliable, absolutely book her!”

El Cerritos pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time using Rover and first time leaving any of my dogs under anyone’s care, but Liz gave me so much ease when I went out of town to visit my family. From first meeting Bane, she was very open to learning about him to ensure she knew how to care for him while I was away. While I was away, Liz shared pictures and reached out with updates. I had lost signal having been in the mountains but I wasn’t worried knowing Bane was with her. When I returned home, everything was in its place. Liz went the extra mile here. Bane looked happy and well rested too. I couldn’t be happier knowing Liz is someone we can trust

Ashtin jumped in last-minute for this house sit and we were extremely satisfied with how quickly he bonded with Jerry and cared for him while we were away. The happy pictures we received gave us peace of mind so we could enjoy our vacation. In addition, our house was clean and in perfect order upon our return. We hope that Ashtin will return for a future pet sit and would highly recommend him to others! Thank you, Ashtin!
Paige is super reliable, friendly and communicative. She was able to watch my 9 year old for a week and, from the very beginning she was absolutely great. Spent a lot of time getting to know me and my pup during the meet and greet. And she genuinely seemed interested in learning how to care for her. Couldn’t be more satisfied with the updates and communication throughout the week. It made for a very stress-free work week out of town. Thank you, Paige!

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Kahlil took amazing care of our dogs—they absolutely adored him. He handled feeding and cleanup perfectly, and our house was spotless after a full month. Beyond that, he’s just a kind and thoughtful person. We’d have him back to care for our pups any time!
