Nina was great, she gave us updates every day, left our home in clean condition, and most of all kept Libby company while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking Nina again! 😊

Meghan took great care of our pups, cat, and our chickens while we were away! We couldn’t ask anymore from a sitter; she gave them plenty of love, was very responsive, gave frequent updates, and went above and beyond! This was our first experience with Rover and we couldn’t be happier!

Shelby did a great job with Rico and Rory. Lots of pics (which I loved) and great communication. This was the first time I’ve taken a trip for work since moving here and it was great to feel assured my pups were in good hands and able to be comfortable at home. Stress reducer for all of us! ?

It’s always nerve wracking having someone watch your dog who has trouble with strangers, but Rachel made it stress free! She was patient and kind, which helped our dog warm up to her quickly. We can’t wait to have Rachel come again!

This was our first time hiring a pet sitter through Rover and I’m glad we did! Ally had outstanding reviews from other clients and they were not wrong. Ally was very helpful, friendly and most of all patient with our two Jack Russell’s. She was in touch with us via emails and sent pictures every day to put us at ease and we could see the progress she was having with our girls. I would highly recommend Ally and we are very thankful that we found her and will certainly hire her again!

Kaitrin did a fantastic job watching our dogs. It was a last minute booking and she jumped in and got along great with the dogs. She went above and beyond to ensure that we didn’t have anything to worry about while we were on vacation. We will certainly use her services again in the future. Highly recommend her.

I was in need of an in-home dogsitter to watch my three dogs plus two other visiting dogs while we attended an all-day event. I messaged Krys on the Rover app, and she was immediately responsive and came over later that day to meet the dogs. A few days later, the day of the booking, she arrived on time, sent photos and messages throughout the day, and we had so much confidence in her care that it made our time away more enjoyable and worry-free. Krys has a vast amount of experience with many variety of animals through involvement in rescue, wildlife rehabbing, and personal pet ownership. We were so lucky to have found her and value any and all advice she has to offer. She is so knowledgeable! I highly recommend Krys, without reservation, to anyone looking for pet care in your home. I'm so pleased with the care she gave our dogs and look forward to booking her again.

Payton is amazing with our three dogs. You can tell how much they love her staying with them by the smiles on their faces and all the photos she sends us. Not only does she take such wonderful care of them, but it’s also a comfort knowing how much she truly enjoys spending time with them. I never have to worry and know that they are in the best of hands when they’re in her care.

Michelle was amazing with our dogs! They were nervous since it was the first time we left them - and so was I! Michelle did great getting them to warm up and even shoveled spaces for them in the middle of our most recent blizzard so they could go outside. I trusted Michelle in our home and would have her back again without a second thought.
