“We needed a sitter at the last minute and Vanessa came in a saved the day. She followed our instructions to the letter and she sent photos of our little guy, which put our minds at ease. Vanessa is a caring, pet lover whom we've trust completely. Her customer service is top notch and she's a pleasure to interact with. We'll continue to use and recommend her to others as long as she's associated with Rover.😺”

He has taken care of my German Shepherd and he loves to play with him every time he sees him. I truly recommend him to take care and love for your pets.”


7. Nayeli R.

“Nayeli was a life saver! We had to find a Rover during our Spring Break cancellation and Nayeli rose to the occasion. She was very communicative, thorough and loving with our fur babies. When a hiccup with our travels came up, Nayeli was more than willing to stop by again after the job was completed. I really appreciated her notes and photos. I would love to hire Nayeli again!”


8. Andrew M.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10 and currently a turtle for the past 5 years. I have experience with from giving medicine to giving the best good boy/girl heard rubs around. I have a full time job, but have a flexible schedule. I can do mostly 30min visits or longer on weekends. But am willing to coordinate on as needed basis. I can do mainly drop in visits as I have 2 cats and a turtle currently at my place. So home stay will not work.


9. Tina Y.

“At the meet and greet Tina gently introduced herself to Chilli, listened closely as we toured our home, took notes asked questions. She followed the written instructions we left for her and confirmed additional instructions we texted after we left for our trip. She texted us pictures of Chilli with updates. She also went beyond her responsibilities and checked for ants that had invaded our home before we left for our trip. She exceeded our expectations and we’ll definitely schedule her again soon!”


10. Laura H.
“Laura is a loving and attentive pet owner of both a cat and dog. She has many years experience caring for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors, as the need arises. I have no doubt she would be an excellent choice to care for your pet.”


11. Ruby S.
“Ruby is one the most animal oriented people I know, going out of her way to save even the smallest of creatures at any point in time. She’s been a loving horse girl since she was just six years old, taking care of, training, and building connections with these beautiful animals in a way I have never seen anyone do before. If I were to trust anybody with my pets it would be her. At home she has a beautiful German shepherd and two cats that she cares for regularly, and even tri-monthly kitten fostering!”


12. Mary B.
“Mary was a lifesaver for us. Our pet sitter canceled the night before our 5am flight and Mary was able to bring our rambunctious doodle to stay at her place. He got lots of trips to the dog park and Mary sent us pics throughout our trip. Not sure that he wanted to come home back to our apartment, but that’s okay, he’ll be able to visit Mary and her pack again in July.”


13. Sulynn M.

“Sulynn did an amazing job checking in on my dog Daisy! She asked great questions to ensure that she became familiar with Daisy’s routine and Daisy seemed to warm up to her from the start. She was also very communicative and sent pictures which I greatly appreciated.”


14. Ashtyn F.

“Ashtyn did a great job visiting and taking care of my two cats oveer a 4-day period. She followed the instructions i gave her quite well and everything worked out quite well. No complaints, only praise.”


15. Nia G.

“We had Nia drop by twice a day to help take out our 17 yr old dachshund for potty breaks. She was always on time, very professional, and extremely communicative. She also sent lots of photos to let us know how things were going. We will be looking to have Nia do drop-in visits in the future and overnight stays.”


16. Daria S.

“Daria was amazing with our cat! She spent a good amount of time getting to know her and playing with her. We came back to a happy kitty! I would highly recommend Daria to any cat parent looking for a responsible and caring sitter.”

“Diana would be a great at any service she provides on Rover she has a bubbly high energy personality who goes beyond the call of duty in everything she does. Her love for animals is whole hearted and sincere. She is always coming over to see Rocco my baby boy malteese. She made me very knowledgeable in the care when I brought him home by buy him a coat for winter and making sure I know about his sensitive skin cleaning his eyes. I highly recommend and know she will go far at Rover. Sincerely Deja”




18. Jerrica D.
“Jerrica is the most loving person I know. She cares deeply for her self and her cat Oli and she is equally as loving to any animal she meets. She treats any animal with the same respect as she treats her own. I trust Jerrica 100% with my animals; and I have two cats and a puppy. And I know she has lived with many animals before and has helped taken care of them, and showed them so much love.”


19. Eva J.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a young child, both small and large. I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and everything in between. I fostered for a few years in college as well so ai have experience administering medication and training. I have an extremely flexible schedule and am seeking fulfilling side jobs that I can enjoy and dedicate my time to. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, as I can prioritize them and give your pets the attention and care they need while still balancing my other responsibilities. I currently am not housing in my home but when watching a client’s pet I will take care of them as if they were my own pet: take them on walks, play enriching games with them, and give them lots of love. I also have a lot of experience with nosy pets that get into everything, so I am extremely aware and attentive to details others might miss.


20. Eva E.
“Eva has housesat for me many times for my high maintenance dog. She always makes an effort to give her long walks and lots of TLC! I would 100% recommend as she’s been caring for my dog for many years.”
