“We were in a bind when our original pet sitter fell through, and Alana was able to step in at the last minute. She was incredibly accommodating, responsive, and made the whole process stress-free. Our dog and cat were clearly well cared for, and we came home to two happy, relaxed pets. We’re so grateful for her help and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Sarah has been our go to sitter for a few years now. She is reliable and incredibly clean. She always cleans up the house on the longer stays and it's really appreciated to come home to a clean house. Our animals are also always very calm when we come home so we can tell she takes great care of them while we are away. I highly recommend her as a sitter!”
“Lauren was lovely! Brinxy was wild about her during the meet and greet. She took great care of my boy and it was obvious from the daily pics and updates he felt super comfortable and happy with her. She was housesitting and kept his same daily routine. We will definitely be using her again! 10/10”

“Thank you for being attentive with our pets while we were gone. They all seemed happy when we got home. You communicated very well and all the pictures during your visits were appreciated. Will book again! Thanks!”

“I have an older labrador who is not in the best of health and a 11 month old golden retriever. Cassandra is great with both of them. She is compassionate to the older dog and gives her the extra care she needs. And she gives the puppy a lot of exercise and training. Cassandra is very knowledgeable about dogs. I am grateful to her.”

“It's a long story, but Richelle is amazing with dogs, especially dogs with broken legs. We had an event to go to in LA and our foster dog had emergency surgery the day before. Richelle took over without fail and spent all day in our home taking care of our foster and family dog. I cannot say enough good things about her personality, demeanor and how well she gets a long with dogs. She sent us photos throughout the day, and let us know how both the dogs were doing. Richelle is truly a loving companion to dogs!”

“I would HIGHLY recommend Meghan to anyone that desires a trustworthy, dedicated, caring and loving person to care for their pets and care for their home. My first time using Rover service. I looked at a number of individuals for consideration and picked Meghan based on her background and sense of trustworthiness and the fact that my German Shepherds immediately took to her when we met for an interview process. While I was away Meghan kept me informed daily how my dogs were doing. How they played and interacted. She brushed them, vacuumed and kept the house clean. She let me know when she had to leave the house to run any errands and when she returned. I'll use her again. Thank you!”

Alana was fantastic! She stayed with our dogs (4 months and 5 yo) for 5 days and we know they were loved and well taken care of! She sent multiple pictures and kept us updated on what they were doing. She took extra good care of our new puppy that needed some extra attention. We will definitely re book with her for our next up coming trips!

Alana is the kindest soul! She took such good care of all three of my babies! They were so loved and cared for. I always feel so bad about leaving them, but she was so good to them! I will definitely be booking her again! If you need someone to trust, she’s the one! Thank you so much, Alana!
