“Jessica was great! Followed all instructions we left, was communicative, and took lots of pics. I appreciate her hanging out with my pup. Will be using her services again. 10/10. :)”
“Rachel is the best cat sitter! She is so communicative and is able and happy to deal with my quirky cats! They can be timid with new people but they have liked Rachel from the start. I will always use and recommend Rachel!”
“Grace was awesome! She was so helpful with toby, always sending me picture updates of her drop in with Toby. I will definitely be reaching out to her again with any help I need with Toby:-)”
“So glad I found Monique! She’s great with my dogs, able to walk both of them (they’re huge) and they come back tired and happy every time. She always gives me great updates on how they did on the walk, she’s on time, reliable and flexible when I needed to make some last minute changes on our schedule.”
“We are so grateful to have found Thane! My kitty Rat sometimes likes company while he eats, which I don’t believe I’d told Thane, but they figured it out. They’re great at figuring out what Rat needs and keeping us in the loop. They even reached out to let me know the power was out and see if there was anything they could do! I’ll continue to use them for as long as they’re available”
“This was our first time having Jeffrey do drop ins for our three wild kids and he was AMAZING! Great communication, super professional, loved on our doggos just like we would!”
“Rachel is awesome! She came by to meet Odin before she would have to come check on him by herself. I gave super basic instructions and she knocked it out of the park. Would 100% recommend!”
“This was our first time using services through Rover and we are so glad we did! Cat was absolutely amazing through the entire process keeping us well informed at each drop in. She was incredibly patient with our fur babies and their unique personalities, even befriending our shy boy in record time. Thank you so much, Cat!”
“Kirby has been great helping me with daily let outs while I’m at work this week. She even went out of her way to schedule a meet and greet since my dog can be a little anxious. Highly recommend her!”
“Elizabeth is so great with my dog! She is very responsive, friendly, and I knew he was in good hands. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future :)”
“Katherine, was awesome. Her communication was excellent, her connection with us and our pups immediate; and her malleability appreciated. We had a unique opportunity that needed support and she was very helpful; helped us to meet the need of that opportunity and was a tremendous flexible resource. My wife and I highly recommend Katherine and can agree with the 5 stars given to her by others - she definitely earned it.”
“Devinder takes great care of my cat Theo, who can be a bit sassy and territorial, especially when it comes to his personal space. I’d definitely recommend Devinder to anyone with a quirky or particular pet - he handles them with care!”
“I admit being new to Rover had me somewhat nervous, but after a few conversations and sessions with Kayley I’m so thankful we found her. My Remy loves her so much and looks forward to their time together. I know he’s in good hands!”
“I really liked Elijah's notes and photos! Elijah left us a report every day and we could tell he made an effort to entertain and comfort my cat while we were away. We felt like Elijah was very kind and trustworthy too.”
“Alyssa was a great pet sitter! She took care of my indoor cat for two weeks. She met him beforehand and he warmed up to her quickly. She listened to and followed all instructions. Alyssa was also very easy to work with and responsive to messages. She shared great pictures of him daily, which we really appreciated. She played with him, brushed him, and feed him (and cleaned up one spit up). She clearly has a great connection to pets and I highly recommend her.”
“Danielle was fantastic for when we needed a sitter last minute. Very thorough, great communication/ updates, and took great care of our dog. Would recommend and use Danielle again,”

Hannah exceeded expectations. I was able to relax and enjoy my little getaway knowing my dogs were well cared for. She was courteous, communicative, and professional. She kept me informed while I was away—with a bonus of super adorable pictures. She’s a gem! Thank you, Hannah. Duke and Barbecue look forward to seeing you again. 🐾🩷
Rachel was a godsend! She was sooo good with my 2 babies (cats) she automatically connected with my male cat, my female is very skittish, but Rachel knew what she needed to, T L C❤️ My plans, if she is still interested in next year, I would love for her to be able to come visit with my cats for a week again
Brenna did an amazing job of checking in on my cat T. Rex while I was out of town! She was a great communicator and super flexible with my traveling times. I would 100% recommend her to other pet owners and am sure I will reach back out next time I need a drop-in again!!
