Kathleen has been wonderful so far! Her meet and greet went well - she was patient and kind to our pup Poe. She’s been communicative as we’ve started working with her, especially to work out schedule stuff. We look forward to having her back for stop bys!

Jun was amazing!! Definitely came through for my family and I as we needed to find a sitter so we can go on vacation. Came to visit and meet our pups before we left. He cared for them and stuck to our routine. This was my second time booking Jun. I’ll definitely be using him again.

Bridget is great with our dogs, she takes such good care of them! She was able to help us out on very short notice, and did a wonderful job taking care of all 4 of our dogs, and followed our instructions to the tee. Very quick to respond, and good with communicating during the check ins as well, we got lots of photos so we could see the dogs were doing well. A+ sitter, will be booking again!

Chantel was great! She sent pictures of Sabine and sent messages along with them to update me on anything with my apartment or with Sabine. I was nervous about using this service since it’s my first time, but she eased my nerves. I would definitely book her again in the future!

Joe has been helping me with my dogs and cat for 3 years. He does walks and drop ins for me. He is very trustworthy and has a backup key to my house for emergencies. My dogs love him, he is one of their best friends. He has been working on not jumping with newer puppy, a large hyper lab-pit with anxiety. He also is one of the few people my tiny chihuahua doesn't try to nip the heels of. She spins in circles every time he comes over and gets her leash. I highly recommend Joe.

Kelly has cared for our cat many times on extended vacations. Lyra can be a shy cat and will hide when people come over, but she immediately loved Kelly. Kelly provides very thorough visit reports and never hesitates to clean up any pet messes so we come home to a clean house. We will continue to ask her to watch our pets and plants when we go on vacation.

Princess did a great job watching my dog Archie! She took care of Archie like it was her own, he was fed on time, was taken out every 2 hours & had lots of playtime with her dog Otis. She send me lots of pictures & videos of Archie. Princess also spend lots of time with Archie, making sure he was loved while I was gone. He really enjoyed his time with Princess. I will definitely book her again in the future.

I needed someone to give my Boston Terrier an injection while we were away on vacation and feel so lucky to have found Victoria! Communication was great AND she even facetimed me during the visit so we could go over any last minute questions, dosage, etc. My dog sitter said "Victoria was very polite and professional, you should hire her again!" and we absolutely will. Very relieved to know my dog got her medication and that a trained vet assistant was able to handle the injection with ease. Cassie never knew anything even happened, hah.

Rob has watched my golden retriever in his home several times now and he is always my first choice for a pet sitter. First and foremost, he has so much love for my dog, and I know he would for any dog placed in his care. He is also super-reliable with great communication. My dog needs exercise and has to have medication administered and Rob is great with both of these. I would recommend him for anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy pet sitter.

Second time booking with Lori! I have had a little bit of bad luck with pet sitters before finding Lori on Rover. She showed up for a meet and greet and I got the immediate impression that she was dedicated, honest and trustworthy so I decided to give her a try. I'm glad that I did! I now (finally) have a go to pet sitter who I trust completely with my fur babies. Lori will continue to get my business.

Paige is such an animal lover! She is always taking my dogs outside for walks, and feeding them and giving them their vitamins when she comes over. She spends all of her time with my pets. She will definitely give your pets all the love in the world.

We have enjoyed working with Samauria so far! She came by for a meet and greet first, which we feel is very important. Our pup Poe was loving on her from the start, appreciating the scratches and belly rubs given. They had their first visit today and all went well. Samauria was communicative and save for a tiny house alarm kink, she followed all our instructions. She even alerted me to Poe’s excitement outside that irritated her paws because of the ice. I greatly appreciate her efforts with that. We look forward to future visits and a weekend stay coming up.

Theresa did an amazing job taking care of my 3 cats while I was away on vacation for a week. She dropped in, cleaned out their litter, refilled their food and water and played with them to make sure they wouldn't feel lonely. She also always sent updates after each of her visits. Amazing job!
