“Paz did a 7day overnight with our dog and did an incredible job. She updated us on Skye and her fun adventures. When we returned home Skye was happy, healthy and our home was just how we left it…I would say better than we left it actually.”


“Tena did great with our babies! I was so nervous to leave them behind this trip. She gave them great care and attention and even managed to get one of my more aloof cats to sniff her! She is awesome!”


“Excellent expirience all around. This was our first time using Rover after our original sitter fell through. Chris was fantastic at communicating and sent so many updates and photos we felt like our dogs were with us on our trip. Chris not only let our dogs out and fed them but really cared for them and made sure they were happy and comfortable while we were gone. We will absolutely use Chris again!”


“Kai and Devon were great pet sitters for us during the week that we were away on vacation! They communicated well with us and provided updates on how our pets were doing. They kept our house clean and even took the time to wash sheets, towels, and blankets before they left. Overall they did a great job for us and we would definitely book them again!”


“Laura is professional, communicative, and wonderful with pets! We had to leave town last minute for a family emergency and were super grateful to find Laura. We had her stay at our home and were pleased to find everything clean and organized when we returned, and we got multiple pics of our pup each day! Would 100% recommend!”


“There aren’t enough good things to say about Joelle! She was communicative, kind, compassionate, and respectful in every way - with our animals and their quirks, our home, etc. She sent us pictures and was prompt in all responses. This also was a last minute request due to a previous sitter following through. Such a treasure to find her, and we look forward to working with her much more! Thank you, Joelle!”

“Tracy was absolutely amazing and I had no worries at all leaving my two pups in her care. I loved the updates and pics and knew they were in excellent hands. I could enjoy my daughters beautiful wedding and not worry about them, which was priceless. I came home to a very clean house and she even washed her sheets! Can’t wait to have Tracy back soon! Highly recommend!”


“Accurate to description! There is a reason why she is a 5 star sitter. Toni took excellent care of my baby girl who's never had a sitter and Toni was well received by her as well. She kept us updated through out. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you Toni!”


“Shanisa was a wonderful sitter! My home was left cleaned and organized and my pups were happy as can be. She was prompt to respond and even though i was away for only a weekend, she made sure to send pictures and videos to me. Would highly recommend!”


“Erin was amazing!! She was on time, kind and my Sonny just loved her. They connected immediately and I could tell that he loved her from the moment they met! She sent pictures and updates and I will definitely be booking her again! Not only did Sonny and I love her but my mom loved her too. Scheduling to book her again next week! We loved having Erin as a dog sitter!”


“Kaitlyn was fantastic. She was thoughtful and patient with our very shy puppy. I appreciate how she approached him and within a short time he warmed up. It was our first vacation away from him and he did so well. Kaitlyn sent pics and a video Which was reassuring to us. I recommend her highly.”


“Sharielle is the best in the business! I actually made sure she was available BEFORE I made my vacation plans because we were flexible but I wanted to make sure she could stay with our dogs again. She sent updates and photos everyday and followed our instructions/preferences for our dogs care. They got plenty of walks and cuddles throughout the week. Additionally, our house was in exactly the same condition as we left because Sheri took care of our house like it was her own.”


“Nora dogsat for us for the first time this past weekend and she was great! She kept us in the loop of how our dog was doing everyday and sent us daily pictures. She is very trustworthy and I would definitely book with her again! Thank you Nora!”

“Rhiannon was amazing with our dog Raya!! We had to leave town last minute for a family emergency and I am SO glad Rhiannon was available to watch our baby. She was so sweet with our pup, followed all our instructions perfectly, asked thoughtful questions, and sent lots of pictures and updates. We were so relieved to have found someone so wonderful and we will definitely be booking Rhiannon again!!”

Elam pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily is a true gem! All three of my pups were immediately in LOVE! They were so excited to see her when she came back for Day 2. And, I could see how much she LOVEs animals… she picked up and cuddled my Mercedes the minutes she walked in the door! She is the BEST!

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Karly! She stayed in our home for a full week while we were on vacation and took incredible care of our two very different dogs — our energetic 1-year-old Goldador and our older, more anxious 7-year-old Lab mix. Karly kept our young pup active and engaged while also making sure our older dog felt calm, loved, and secure. She was dependable, communicative, and consistently reached out with thoughtful updates and questions. We really appreciated the daily messages and photos — it was clear our dogs were not only well cared for but genuinely happy. On top of that, she also looked after our turtle and Koi pond with the same level of care and attention. It gave us such peace of mind to know that our pets were in such good hands. Karly truly went above and beyond, and we could tell our dogs felt as comfortable and loved as they do when we’re home. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible sitter!

Noelle was fantastic with my shy/anxious buddy. She sent me pictures throughout - mostly of her rubbing his belly or playing in the backyard- He warmed up to her almost immediately. A rare occurrence! Noelle was a great communicator, reliable, and responsible. And, she obviously loves dogs. Five star!
