Laura was great! She took great care of my dog and 4 cats. Laura was responsive and polite and seems to really love animals. She did everything I asked and sent pictures and updates multiple times per day. Highly recommend.

Jeri did a wonderful job with our two puppers. We were at ease knowing she was taking great care of them. We especially appreciated all of the updates, pictures and videos. We highly recommend Jeri and look forward to working with her again!

Sam was absolutely perfect with our pets and our home. Everyone was happy when we got back and Sam even left a light on for us as we were returning after dark. Highly recommend him to take care of your pets and home. He’s such a calm presence that even our high strung Chinese Crested took to him in no time.

About: I have taken up a couple overnight dog/house sitting gigs. I am ready to take on last minute jobs and am very communicative and dependable. I will be able to take up any pet/house care anytime over the summer. Whether this means walking, feeding, sitting or bathing! Dogs or Cats! Depending on the pet, I will play with or just keep watch over them. I do an exceptional job of following directions and keeping tidy!

About: We have had my family dog for over 10 years and I had the pleasure of learning how to train a puppy. From potty training to teaching her tricks, it was such an experience to be able to grow up alongside a furry family member. I typically work about six to eight hours a day, monday-friday. I am completely free nights and weekends and am willing to do check-ins as needed. As someone who owns pets, I would want a caretaker to treat them with the best care they can provide, which is what I strive to do.

Casi has been incredible for my 8 year old lab and I. I moved to Florida from another state and was nervous about finding an in-house petsitter given my frequent travel. She has been consistently available and will send updates as frequently as you would like. For example, I had a flight delay with an extensive layover and she went above and beyond (even with her own personal commitments) to ensure Cash was taken care of before I arrived. I would strongly recommend her to any of my friends or family.

Heaven stayed in our home with Cleo for 12 days. She’s great with communication and super friendly. Upon our arrival home, our house looked just as we had left it and Cleo laid in the bed Heaven slept in, clearly missing her! We highly recommend her!

Lauren was great and house sat our babies for over a week when we were out of town. She was great with communication, sent us photos every other day, and we came home to a clean home. We could tell our fur babies were being well cared for, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away! Thank you, Lauren!

About: I have been around animals since I was born, and I'm super passionate about them all!! I've owned multiple dogs and cats over the years. I provide a fun, loving, caring, friendly and safe environment. Your animal will always be in good hands with me! I will take great care of your pet, as if they were my own. I'm super active and will always make sure they get their energy out! I will provide your animals with a fun environment by going on long walks, going outside, playing with their toys and making sure they’re comfortable. I pay very close attention to detail, I'm extremely responsive and will make you feel at ease while your babies are under my bare. Currently, we have an English Bulldog, Bruiser, whose 10.5-years-old. We also have a Rottweiler, Leo, who is 4-years-old. I treat our dogs like our human babies 🥰. I'm available 7-days a week. I do not work, but I'm a full time stay-at-home mommy. I'd be able to fit your animals into my schedule easily. I treat our two dogs like my children. I'll take amazing care of your animals by providing them with cuddles, love and my undivided attention.

Teresa was absolutely fabulous!! From the first meeting our two dogs and our senior cat adored her and were completely at ease. It made our trip away so much more fun because we didn't worry about our fur kids. Teresa sent us pictures several times a day and kept me updated on me dosages. She also noticed strange behavior from our cat that will warrant a vet visit so I'm very thankful for that! Teresa even cleaned up and washed the sheets and remade the bed! We will definitely book Teresa next time we need a sitter and I hope she'll be available!!! Don't hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting, she is outstanding!

Samuel communicated with me quickly after my booking request. He was attentive to the needs of my pets which allowed me to feel reassured while I was away. My dog loved his walks. I would recommend Samuel for your pet needs.

There aren’t enough stars in our universe to give Melissa a proper review. She is a true blessing from God. I knew from the second she gracefully walked in our home God sent us an angel to watch over our babies. As a matter of fact, it was all 3 of our pets that instantly bonded with her, on her first visit. Melissa has impeccable attention to details. She took tremendous great care of all our pets while we were away for almost 3 weeks! She provided photos and recaps every single day. To a T. More importantly, we could see the happiness in our babies eyes from the photos how happy they were in Melissa’s care. Like they say “a picture speaks 1000 words.” This alone is the greatest comfort and relief and worry free feeling you can have on a vacation, which is priceless. In addition, Melissa took care of our pool, yard, flowers and everything! Even things we didn’t ask for. She treated our home like it was hers. It was such a joy to come back home and all our flowers healthy and everything looked like the day we left. My wife and I are both incredibly grateful for Melissa and Rover. We really look forward in having Melissa in our home again soon. Good is great. ALL THE TIME.

Casey is amazing! We needed a sitter for our new puppy and our senior dog last minute and she provided nothing but the best care. Our routine was followed to the tee and we came home to happy doggos. She sent pictures and kept us updated - such a win since this our first time using rover and leaving our fur babies with someone else. She is a top notch sitter!

We recently used Alex for the first time, to care for, and stay over night with our dog Kali, while we were out of town for a few days. Alex was in full communication with us the entire time, and shared many pictures while we were away. We felt very comfortable, and at ease, knowing that she was taking good care of our girl. We will definitely be using her for our next trip.

Diem is a terrific pet sitter. She is friendly, reliable, punctual, trustworthy, dedicated, professional…and she loves pets! She was available on short notice, and her support removed a major hurdle and put my mind at ease as attended an out-of-town event. I needed care for 4 fur babies. After asking neighbors for assistance and investigating boarding kennels, nothing seemed right for my 4 high-energy Shih-Tzus. I wanted to keep them together as pack to prevent anxiety during my lengthy trip. My sister suggested I try ROVER. I searched the site for pet sitters. I located Diem, looked at her profile and reviews…I reached out around 10:00; she responded within 15 mins with her availability, and we scheduled a same-day meeting to discuss care for my doggies. She arrived on time and prepared for that meeting with treats, dog toys, (to meet and socialize with my dogs) and a notebook to document any special instructions, phone numbers, etc. I was impressed by her care and professionalism from the start and throughout my trip. I am definitely a satisfied customer and will book her again for sure.
