“Trixy loves going to Mrs. Sadie’s house so much, that she never wants to come home. Lol She loves all the spoiling she gets there, and see her friends. We absolutely love Sadie!”
2. Ana R.
“Ana took great care of our Scooter while we were on vacation/work conference. She kept us informed daily of how he was doing complete with pictures. She was the perfect caregiver for our Scooter and we highly recommend her services.”
3. Erika & Jason V.
“Erika & Jason V were wonderful to deal with. I had to drop off Scamp sooner than expected and they were very accommodating allowing me to drop him off 4 hours early. Erika & Jason sent me pics and updates for Scamp everyday which really eases your mind when you are away from your beloved pet. Scamp is an older dog and has some issues with food and meds and Erika & Jason made sure he was given the correct amount of food and meds at the right time. Scamp loved staying with Erika & Jason and when I need another sitter for Scamp, Erika & Jason will be my go to. We will definitely book with Erika & Jason again through Rover. They treated Scamp like one of there own and I made me feel very much as ease leaving Scamp. Thanks again Erika & Jason, for taking care of my beloved pet with such care and attention and treating him and me like family..”
4. Elizabeth A.
“Elizabeth honestly is one of the best sitters I've used on Rover. I think Eevee sensed the good human vibe immediately because she immediately got excited. That usually doesn't happen. Elizabeth really took care of Eevee and treated her as her own. Will definitely request again.”
5. Isabella S.
About: I have been watching pets for friends and neighbors since I was 10. I have watched dogs, cats, lizards, and even rabbits. I am happy to watch your pets and get to know their own crazy personalities! I am active duty military so I work 7-4, I can be of assistance before and after work as well as during my lunch break. There is no day that I am unavailable. If I have the pets in my home, I am okay with them in a crate or out. I have a cat and he free roams but has his own room he can stay in as well. If allowed I am more than okay with dogs sleeping in my bed. (Extra snuggles don’t hurt!!). In your home I can check on them whenever you need and also follow the rules and guidelines you provide. I am just here to ensure your time away from home is as easy as possible and your pet is comfortable at home while missing you!
6. Patricia K.
“Outstanding! I'm pretty sure my dog Tater had more fun staying with Patricia and her family then he does with me. Pricing was fair, scheduling was super flexible, and communication was spot on. Patricia will be my go to for Taters home away from home in the future. Super happy with my and Taters experience. Thank you for taking excellent care of my little buddy while I was away.”
7. Kirsten K.
“Kirsten and her husband have such beautiful hearts- especially our York. I was nervous dropping him off because he is usually right by my side as a therapy dog and also because of medical conditions. (It was kinda like dropping my sons of for kindergarten the first day) BUT they sent me pictures- took him for walks- played with him - snuggled him- and he did awesome with the big dogs and her young son. I recommend them 110% and I believe I made some new Friends too! She made sure I was updated with photos and I thank God for the time York spent- he needed a getaway too! And he will probably want to visit again ♥️ Thank y'all and God Bless!”
8. Gabriela B.
“Gabriela was an exceptional pet sitter for my German Shepherd, Luna. From the moment we met, I could tell that Gabriela genuinely loves animals and would treat Luna with the same care and attention that I do. She kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which put my mind at ease. Gabriela made sure Luna got plenty of exercise by playing fetch, one of her favorite activities, and even took the time to give her extra belly rubs and attention. Luna was happy, well-exercised, and clearly very comfortable with Gabriela. I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter, and I highly recommend Gabriela to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring!”
9. Jessica H.
“Thankful for Jessica and her family in taking great care of our companion, Blaze. Jessica was quick to respond and provided several photos and videos of Blazes visit. Thank you again!”
10. Robert B.
“Robert and his wife have been so awesome! We’ve used them multiple times and our dogs are always excited and run right in to his home when we drop them off. We are sad we’re moving and won’t be able to keep using them!”
11. Josephine K.
“Josephine is the best!! She took incredible care of our little dude over a weekend and sent regular photo updates of their BUSY adventures! Brixton came home super pooped out and super happy (he actually seemed quite sad to have to leave). We felt confident he was in great hands all weekend! Josephine is communicative and flexible. We highly recommend and would love to book with her again!”
12. Macie B.
“Macie was so amazing. I love how Bleu feel like he was right at home. He was so comfortable around her and her family and that had made me feel so good inside. I would highly recommend Macie to watch your fur baby. I will definitely have her to watch Bleu again. Macie, thank you so much! 🤗”
13. Patrick & Veronica Y.
“I had a fantastic experience with Patrick and Veronica as our pet sitters on Rover! They were incredibly attentive and caring, sending daily pictures that showed my dog having a great time. Seeing how happy and comfortable my pup was in their care was reassuring. Communication was seamless, and it was clear that they provided lots of love and attention. I highly recommend Patrick and Veronica for reliable and compassionate pet care!”
14. Cheryl B.
“Absolutely amazing experience! Cheryl and her family were great with our 7 month old Briard and stayed in close contact with us. She was flexible and patient. Definitely recommend and will book again!”
15. Kayla & Trevor H.
“Kayla & Trevor were great with Hershey. Hershey is 13 1/2 years old and blind and they allowed her run of the house as if she were one of their pets. Will definitely use again should the need arise.”
16. Paige L.
“Paige is always so reliable and accommodating! She is so good to our golden retriever, takes him on walks and sends us pictures daily. We are always so appreciative of Paige!”
17. Skyler C.
“Skyler was great to work with, promptly responding to all my messages. He did a great job looking after my dog Charlie, an energetic doodle, taking him to the dog park and sending me pictures and updates during boarding. Highly recommend.”
18. Rachel K.
“Rachel was so great with our German Shepherd. She was so accommodating when we had to book last minute with her and was in excellent communication the entire stay. She was comfortable using a pinch collar, giving medication, and looking after our dog who had a wrapped paw. She sent plenty of pictures and when our dog was sad and missing us, Rachel slept on the couch with her when she wouldn’t come upstairs to bed. Thank you so much!”
19. LaQuisha W.
“This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous about leaving my Jango with a complete stranger but LaQuisha was amazing. She loved on my Jango and cared for him like he was her very own. She sent daily pictures and updates on how Jango was doing. I can’t thank her enough for taking such great care of my Jango. I will definitely be booking with LaQuisha again!”
20. Karl O.
“Dixie has never been interested in toys but after staying with Karl and his two fur babies she has started to pull toys out of her basket! I know she enjoys her time with them, and I can relax knowing she is well taken care of! So glad to have found Karl (and Chip & Daisy)”
