“Steven was very kind! I was in a bind, and he came right away late at night to meet my pets and was more than happy to help me out! My puppy warmed up to him very quickly, but my cat doesn’t take well to strangers (although, we did catch her purring while he was holding her). I can tell that he really cares for animals. I would definitely use him again in the future and I highly recommend his services!”
“Mariana was fabulous!! She showed our kitty so much love during her visits. She sent us regular updates and photos, and we appreciated all of the attention she gave our cat. We will book her again and couldn’t recommend her more than we do.”
“Krystin took care of my cat, Little Cow, with exceptional attention and enthusiasm during her drop-in visits. She went above and beyond to make sure both of us had the best experience possible. I really appreciated her willingness to accommodate any request and her genuine care for Little Cow’s well-being. It was such a relief knowing my cat was in great hands while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter!”
“Norman took great care of my cat for a few days. He kept me updated each day with pictures which was really nice. I would definitely board with Norman again!”
“Thank you Nicollette for dropping in to feed and hang out with our dear Lucy girl! Nicollette was great, very communicative and responsive. Would love to have her visit Lucy again!”
“Thank you, Randy, for being available to take care of Jenny on such short notice! She enjoyed meeting you. I felt at ease knowing that you would look after her. Until the next time! Juan.”
“Vincent was responsive, communicative and followed the instructions I relayed to him. Simple enough - you would think, but I've had a very difficult time up until booking Vincent with past experiences in which basic details were forgotten or ignored. I really appreciate Vincent looking after our outdoor kitties while we were away! Thank you so much for listening to (and ultimately doing) exactly what was needed for our cats!”
“Paige was wonderful! She communicated clearly with me both leading up to my vacation and during my vacation. She had just the right amount of pictures and stories about my fluff monsters.”
“We were so thankful she was able to watch our cats. She did a great job and really took care of them, loved the photos and drop in notes”
“Very good thanks for everything!”
“Loved having Aja as our pet sitter! She is so nicely and communication with us was exceptional. She even went above and was willing to help us out and come back to our home after a visit when a friend accidentally locked our cat in a room. Can’t wait to use Aja again!”
“Great job will definitely use her again”
About: Hi! We are a pet loving couple that have had pets all our lives. We currently have a terrier mix dog, and a white cat. Pet hotels can be costly and a stressful experience for our furry ones, so we strive to provide a healthier, nicer, happier alternative for you and your pets. Our goal is to make sure your pets get the space, attention, and care they deserve, so that they are excited to stay with us again! We've raised puppies, potty trained, leash trained, and taken care of adult dogs. We live in a spacious house and have a huge backyard, perfect for playing fetch, sniffing, bird watching, and doing zoomies! Matthes works from home and I work from home about half of the weeks days during the academic year and most of the week during the Summer. So, there will very often be someone at home available for company and frequent potty breaks. Matthes works full time from home, and I work primarily from home as well during the Summers and about half of the week during the academic year. Our dog Ruby gets two long walks per day, a shorter walk around lunch time, and plenty of zoomies in the backyard in between. She has supervised access to the backyard where she can keep an eye on her territory :) Ruby is great with other dogs and cats following proper introduction. Our cat Snow is great with dogs too. We have a house on a fenced in 1-acre lot. Our pets are fully vaccinated and given preventative treatments. Your pet would have access to roam the house, or they can have a private suite if they prefer a smaller, cozy place, or they can stay in their crate if that's what they like. We are flexible :)

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life, I am able to keep an eye on your dog throughout the day, and make sure they have all the love and affection they need. Feel at ease with updates and communication to allow you to be able to enjoy your time away and know that your fur baby is in loving hands. I work in IT and work a 5-5-4-4 schedule so on some given weeks and weekends I have 4 to 5 days off in a row free and am flexible in taking care of your furry friends.

About: I have had 4 cats and 4 dogs growing up, as well as an assortment of other cute animals! I love playing with big and small dogs, I live near a park and go for several strolls throughout the day and will be taking tour baby with me. I work from home and I only work until 1:00pm, I have a very relaxed schedule and as it gets warmer I would love to spend my time with animals. I live alone so watching your pet would be perfect we will go on walks we will play and I will make sure they eat healthy. I live on the first floor of an apartment building. I do bot have any pets of my own but I do frequently sit for my family and friends. I allow dogs on the furniture and my fenced balcony it is safe no way they can get off. I live near a park that has a trail that I walk on daily so i would always try to see how much exercise a dog would like.
“Kristal was great with my two kitties. She did drop in visits while I was on a multi-day vacation. I got updates and pictures everyday and she even cleaned up kitty cat puke (from one of my babies who has a sensitive tummy). Would absolutely book again!”

Jhon H.
“I’m happy to recommend Jhon as a trusted and reliable pet sitter. He cared for my dog while I was out of state for two weeks, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Jhon kept me updated with regular pictures and videos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Since then, I’ve continued to rely on John whenever I need someone to care for my dog, whether it’s during long workdays or unexpected errands. He’s dependable, attentive, and genuinely cares about animals. He always makes sure my dog is fed, taken out for potty breaks, and gets the love and attention she needs. I highly recommend John to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter.”

Ayanna M.
“Ayanna is absolutely amazing with my fur babies. I have a high energy lab puppy and a husky with separation anxiety so I was always nervous to leave them, but Ayanna was amazing with them. She was able to play with them and keep them stimulated and give them so much attention that it seemed like they were almost not ready to go home. Now when I need to go out of town or run errands, I have no worries because I know that they are in good hands!”

Friendly cat parents share their Rover experiences
I’m not sure why Steven keeps coming back to deal with my anti social kitty, but he does. And I love Steven for it!
Cannot say enough positive things! Paola took care of an extra cat and sent great pictures and summaries.
I can’t say enough great things about Miranda. We are so grateful to have found her and for all the care she gave our Tux over the past year. He’s a shy outdoor cat but he feels so safe and loved with Miranda. We are sadly moving but I wish we could duplicate Miranda!
Cynthia was great with our cat. He’s not the easiest, but she made him feel very comfortable while we were out. Would definitely recommend Cynthia!
