1. Emma S.
“This is our first time using rover for house sitting our two crazy huskies. We felt at ease while Emma was able to stay and spend time with them while we were away. She was very communicative and sent us lots of pictures and videos. She was timely and followed instructions. Our pups can’t wait until they can spend more time with Emma!”
2. Laura S.
“The dogs settled in nicely while Laura was watching them. She understands dogs need time to warm up and was very gentle with them. She’s prompt and reliable.”
3. Crystal G.
“Crystal was amazing! It was our first time using Rover and Crystal was a perfect match! She not only took great care of Honey but our home too. Honey started new meds a day before we went out of town and Crystal was able to give them to her without any problem. From the pictures we received during her stay, it was clear that Honey was being well taken care of and enjoying Crystal’s company. I highly recommend Crystal!”
4. Josilyn N.
“Josilyn was fantastic! Beau can sometimes be reactive to new people but he took to her right away. She even brought treats for the meet and greet. I had to change my plans last minute due to the hurricane and she made that easy too. She kept me updated and sent me lots of pics which I appreciate. Definitely recommend and will be using her again soon!”
5. Johana M.
“Awesome! I had Johana stay at my house for the weekend and came home to a clean house and happy animals! Will definitely be using Johana again! She gave me peace of mind while away from my babies”

“Excellent!! #1 favorite Rover”
7. Matt B.
“Matt went far above and beyond expectations. He house sat my 6-month-old puppy and 2 cats for 6 days, and they really tested him. The puppy chewed up a mattress pad and peed in my bed, and he washed and cleaned up EVERYTHING. Both the puppy and the cats loved him. He was gentle with both of them and gave lots of pets to everyone (cute pics of happy animals). I will definitely book him again; highly recommend to anyone!”
8. Jeweliana W.
About: I have had animals since I was 6. I currently have two dogs, two cats, and a Guinea pig. My boyfriend and I are our family & friends go-to pet sitters & we will adjust what we provide based on your pets needs. Currently, I am working part-time at my “survival” job while pursuing education in aesthetics! Although my schedule is busy, I am still very willing to be flexible to your needs! I will likely not be taking pets for in-home care due to our house already having enough animals, but if we ever do take animals in-house, we have a fenced in yard, calm neighborhood for walks, and five of our own pets
9. Marilyn Q.
“Marilyn is absolutely amazing! She is so reliable and goes the extra mile to take great care of our dogs and cats when we are out of town. She stays in touch with me throughout and sends lots of pictures and updates. We are so thankful for her taking such good care of our fur babies!!”
10. Leslie A.
“Leslie took care of both of my older pawppies ( 9 year old and 13 year old) for more than 2 years on and off. My Chinese Shar Pei and my rat terrier. They required multiple vitamins and medicines, specially my Shar Pei in her ears and eyes, Leslie not only did this in excellence but with love and care, I could always tell my puppies were happy to see her and I had the pleasure of meeting her rescue who she cared for with velvet touch as well. Leslie is kind and firm which in my opinion makes her versatile to care for different breeds since Shar Pei’s can be very stubborn and have a standofish temper. I highly recommend Leslie to care for any dogs and cats.”
11. Jerome S.
About: Your pet(s) will be treated and cared for like family, and the environment is calming, secure, and quiet to assist with comfort and boarding stay. I'm currently part-time, however, I can make adjustments as necessary and can board daily and on weekdays, weekends, and holidays. We can discuss the details of the care for your fur baby. Have a fenced-in yard at home with security system. Located around animal treatment/medical facilities. I have a 4-year-old German shepherd who is calm and well-trained.

15. Dillon S.
“Dillon is awesome! He was our house/dog sitter for six days while we were out of state. it was so nice to come home to a happy dog and a clean house! Dillon went above and beyond caring for our home and our Zeva. if I could give him 10 stars I would! I highly recommend Dillon to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”
16. Vanessa P.
“Did a great job watching over my two babies. I know they had so much fun and with them while I was gone. Kept the house as clean as possible with two big dogs and a rainy weekend. Will definitely book again when I go out of town :)”

“Great job with the pups”
19. Saniyah J.
About: I may not have fur babies of my own yet. But, I’m absolutely in love with animals and although I chose the human route of healthcare, they deserve the same amount of love. I currently work at a hospital while going to school full time. The schedule changes from three days out of the week I am swept away. Pet-sitting magic: Stick to routines, pamper your furry friend, play detective for safety, share pet pics, be a superhero in emergencies, keep the home pet-tastic, become their BFF, and check for smiles at the end! 🐾😄
20. Bryanna S.
About: Family, friends and co-workers have relied on me and requested to take care of their fur babies as well as trusting me with their home. Currently working a full time job. I will take care of your puppy as soon as I’m off from work and will make sure they have everything they need. I am able to take your puppy in a morning walk before work and after work if I am house sitting as well if needed.
