Dee has housesat for our Yorkie both for short weekend trips as well as multi-week long vacations and she has been nothing short but wonderful. We appreciate all the photos and videos she sends during her stay and she keeps our home tidy for us upon our return, which is always appreciated after coming home from a trip. In addition to taking great care of our dog she also ensures our koi are fed and houseplants watered. Thanks Dee!

Savannah was amazing! This booking was relatively last minute, and I haven't used Rover often, but our experience with Savannah could not have been better! Her presence and demeanor were very calming for BlueLu, as well as me, since she was a new friend to us. She communicated with me prior to her arrival to clarify time and location. She seemed very at ease being in a new environment, and able to handle our energetic and vocal dog. I would highly recommend booking her for your pet needs!

Audrey did an amazing job with our dog, Poe. He can be a bit standoffish at first when meeting new people. She was patient with him and he eventually warmed up to her and became his sweet self again! She also sent lots of photos throughout the weekend, which I really appreciated!

Yesenia is amazing with all animals. I have 2 small shih tzus who require careful watching when being walked. One eats everything and the other wants to go after large dogs after experiencing trauma himself. Yesenia is attentive, positive, compassionate, and a great care giver. She has walked my doggies, feed them, played with them and done over nights while I travel. The dogs are super excited to see her. Also she is really good about playing with them which is so important. My guys love a good game of tug.

I recently been pled claudia for overnight stay for 8 days. This is the longest we been away from out dogs. Two husky's. She sent me pictures and texts as to what they did every other day. My dogs looked happy and relaxed. When I've had family look after them they are always anxious and stressed. Claudia, played, walk them and fed them while we were gone. I felt comfortable and enjoyed our vacation even more knowing they were in good hands. I will use Claudia for all future dog sitting/walking services.

Ralph was incredibly kind, respectful, patient, and playful with my 9-week-old kitten, Hanny! He kept her safe, entertained, and fed throughout the day while I was at work. He noticed behaviors Hanny demonstrated and recommended appropriate toys for her to play with. Ralph was punctual and sent me timely updates on Rover and Google Docs. Hanny is looking forward to the next time he visits!

I have known Jay for over a decade and can attest that he is a trustworthy animal caretaker and would be an excellent choice for a Rover pet sitter. He has taken care of my cat on many many many occasions, and I also know that his own cat and dog are well cared for. I’m a veterinarian and I would absolutely trust Jay with my own pets and my patients. He is very responsible and quick to seek medical attention for his animals when needed. Any pet owner should be happy to know that Jay is looking out for their pet.

We love Carolyn and would absolutely recommend her! We’ve used Carolyn for both drop-in visits and longer-term overnight stays. We first discovered Carolyn we had an older, very senior, frail terrier who required much care and supervision. That terrier has (sadly) now passed. But we have two rescued adult terriers, one of whom is a timid, anxious boy. Carolyn has been so good with all of our dogs, even the high maintenance senior and my nervous boy. I’m not sure how Carolyn got the anxious one to warm up to her instantly, but he just had a lovely weekend spent mainly on her lap. Carolyn is both super trust-worthy and super good with all types of dogs. She is our favorite dog-sitter in the valley!!
