“Carolyn was great. She arrived early, was greeted by Bodhi and after a little playing he jumped in her car and off they went for a walk on the rail trail. He really enjoyed the exercise and I’m sure he’ll be glad to see her again.”

“Lee is the best! He stayed with and cared for our two labradors for a week while we went to Florida. Our girls love him and thoroughly enjoyed their time with Lee. He also kept the house spotless and made sure it was clean for us upon our return. I think the dogs appreciated his musical talents too while we were away. I would highly recommend Lee to anyone in need of a sitter, dog walker, or house stay with their pets. They would be well-loved and cared for with Lee!”

“Bre’ahna provided exceptional care for our three fur babies (two dogs and one cat). She stayed overnight at our home to comfort our dogs, who get scared by themselves, Our senior pup can be a lot to deal with because she needs extra support at her age, including 3x/day medication; Bre’ahna handled her special care needs with understanding and skill. When our other dog experienced mild diarrhea, Bre’ahna promptly communicated with us, ensuring he felt better quickly. We highly recommend her!”

“Iliana stayed with my dog at my house for one night. She was very sweet and caring with my pup. I returned to an impeccable house and a happy dog. I will definitely book Iliana again when the occasion arrives.”

“Angie was all we could hope for in a sitter for our new rescue pup. Our dog immediately warmed up to her calm and gentle nature, and she had everything under control, in addition to endless snuggles for our pup while we were away. There was full peace of mind that our fur child was in great hands! Would call her again in a heartbeat, esp since our dog clearly didn’t want her to leave after we came home! Haha”

“Breanna was an excellent sitter while we were away for the weekend! She provided regular updates on our dog with some darling silly photos too. She came and met Wally before staying with him and was very receptive to instructions and keeping him on his schedule. She left the place clean and tidy before leaving. Will definitely book again!”

“Grettel has been amazing!! Scout is a very nervous and anxious dog and as soon as Grettel and Scout met I knew that Scout was going to be comfortable with Grettel! It only took him about 10 minutes to relax, which is huge for Scout!! She is also very thorough, which puts us at ease. She also provides video and pics of him while we are away! :) ”
“Elizabeth was incredible, and we feel so lucky to have found her. This was not the easiest sit—our senior dog and younger cat require careful management and don’t always get along—but Elizabeth handled everything with so much patience, attentiveness, and care. It gave us real peace of mind knowing she was so capable and calm in navigating their dynamics. She kept us updated with the sweetest photos and little notes throughout our trip, which made being away so much easier (and honestly, we looked forward to her updates every day). Communication was always quick, clear, and thoughtful—she was super responsive and proactive if anything came up. On top of that, she treated our home with total respect and left everything in great shape. You can tell she genuinely cares—not just about doing a good job, but about the animals themselves. We would 100% have Elizabeth back and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and truly exceptional sitter.”

“Ja was such a great house and pet sitter! I have a very lazy dog, and a very high energy dog who can be reactive on a leash. Ja did a great job taking care of them! They were happy when we got home. Also she left our place in pristine shape. I can’t wait to use her again!”
“Emily watched our dog Mouse for 16 days while we were halfway around the world. This was the longest we had ever been away from him and the farthest. We were a little nervous going into it but Emily made us feel so at ease. She sent updates every day usually multiple times a day. She would also tailor the timing of her updates to the timezone we were in which was much appreciated as well. We could tell Mouse was well taken care of and that she gave him a lot of love. We can’t wait to work with her again!”

“We were so happy to find Aliza on the Rover app. We have a new rescue dog, Cobalt, and we were concerned about leaving him for the first time, while we went on a week long cruise that we booked last year. Aliza took great care of Cobalt and sent us frequent photos and updates to let us know how well he was doing. We will certainly hire Aliza again when we need a dog sitter.”

“Katherine was a lifesaver for our family. We had a last-minute trip and she did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 dogs, one of which tends to be a little skittish and shy. We received lots of photos and updates and she was respectful of the space. Highly recommend.”

“This was our first time using Rover and we were definitely a bit nervous about it. It is difficult in this day and age to trust someone to stay in your home and care for your pets. We were away for a two week vacation and were in need of someone to watch our dogs during the week and stay overnight in our home. Lori came through for us in doing just that. We met her first for a meet and greet. After several messages back and forth, she reassured me that our dogs would be well cared for and they were. She is a true animal lover. Our dogs were safe in their home thanks to Lori and did not have to be stressed out in a kennel that was unfamiliar to them. I would highly recommend Lori for taking care of your pets.”

“Kristen is a very friendly, very personable and professional person. She is outgoing and warm hearted and has a natural rapport with animals. She spent 12 days out our house sitting our dog and two cats. She rearranged her schedule to devote as much time as possible with our pets. We received pictures of very contented animals, even the cats who are reclusive liked hanging out with her. We returned to very happy pets. She is on the top of our list for any future plans.”
