“Frankie was great - we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! They took wonderful care of our 3 golden retrievers, giving them plenty of extra cuddles and attention. We were especially impressed by how they handled a little accident, cleaning it up quickly and with no fuss. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were in such caring hands. Highly recommend!"”

She also has funny things to say about the sassy cat, which always make me laugh while I am away! Will always check with her first before I book anyone else!”


7. Faith H.
“I strongly recommend Faith for Rover. She has grown up around animals and has a deep love for all animals. She is incredibly reliable and I know would communicate with the owners. She's been around different tempered animals and has a lot of patience with those who are a little nervous. Whether it's her own animals or those around her, they all warm up to her. It's as if they know she is an animal lover.”

“Meet La’Derius a year ago when he moved to my neighborhood. I have a yorkie terrier and when I needed him to keep Ace for a week while I went to go visit my father. Ace didn’t want to come back home. He is full of energy same as Ace. His 10year old daughter was also great with Ace. I highly recommend La’Derius. Thank you so much.”

12. Amber S.
“Amber isn't just a pet sitter; she's a true animal whisperer. My energetic dog? He's found a new playmate in her! Her attentiveness goes beyond just feeding and watching—she genuinely connects with each pet, understanding their unique needs and personalities. With Amber, I know my pets aren't just looked after; they're cherished. Anyone seeking a caregiver who will treat their pets as their own need look no further.”

16. Joshua D.
“Joshua was a great caregiver for my two cats while I was away on vacation. He stopped by twice a day to care for them including administering medication for my disabled cat. He kept up great communication and followed all instructions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone who's trustworthy and has fast response time”


17. Sorelwing A.

Sent daily pictures and videos which was much appreciated :) will definitely be using her again and recommending to others!”


18. Tara M.

“Tara was absolutely wonderful. She was right on time at each feeding and gave great feedback along with pictures at each visit. I would highly recommend her! She was wonderful with my pets and it was not easy because my older dog had to have medicine that had to be taken at each feeding.”


19. Trisha D.

“I am so happy I found Trish on Rover! I had used a few other sitters from the site before but was never really happy with them until I met Trish! She is very responsive when you book and eager to get the ball rolling! From our first encounter at the meet n greet, I knew I had found a sitter that would do what I requested for my fur baby! Trish was happy to accommodate my requests and let me know when she was on the way to check in on my cat. She sent videos and photos of my baby and assured me she was doing well! She updated me on what she did during her visits and asked if I she could do anything else for me while she was there. She loves animals, and you can tell! My cat usually hides under the bed with other sitters, but with Trish, she was out n about more, and it made me happy that my cat liked her! Trish is friendly, outgoing, and dependable. She is my go-to sitter from now on!!”


20. Melody Y.

“Melody was wonderful with both dogs and gave them the time and attention while we were away. Additionally, she provided feedback on their activity and any concerns she recognized. I highly recommend Melody and will continue requesting her support.”
