“Jacob provided exceptional care for our cats while we were away. His communication was great, with regular updates and photos, giving us peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone needing a reliable and caring cat sitter!”


6. Jessica F.

“Jessica is wonderful! She sends great photos with the Rover card. To my surprise, I received a photo of my normally shy, skittish cat cuddling up in her lap - it made me so happy! Will certainly rebook. Great communication & I can tell that my cats are well taken care of when I’m away.”


7. Cameron B.

“Cameron was wonderful with our cats Wally and Oreo. He sent fun photos everyday and even our shy cat seemed comfy with him. It’s nice to go out of town and know everyone will be taken care of.”


8. Ann A.
“Ann is an excellent pet caretaker. Between July 1st and July 4th, I dropped off my 2-yr old labradoodle dog with her. During the stay, she feed my dog twice a day as requested. She took her on long casual walks at least once a day and she sent me a few pictures of my dog while they were out on the walks -- my dog was clearly very happy and content. She was very attentive to my dog. My dog was clean and looked quite happy when I arrived to pick her up. I highly value and recommend Ann's pet caregiving services.”




9. Shelly M.

“Shelly is a fantastic pet sitter and all around lovely human. My fur family was well taken care of and Shelly went above and beyond when the cat puke struck. Highly recommended!!”


10. Becky H.

“Becky went above and beyond in taking care of our cats. She was incredibly communicative, quickly responded to our cats' many antics, and was attentive to every detail of their care. Because of her great sense of humor, we were excited every time a new Rover card was posted, where her love and care for our cats was apparent. It can be hard to leave your pets with a stranger, but we felt completely at ease knowing that Becky was taking care of them. We would recommend her to all pet parents looking for a reliable and conscientious sitter.”


11. Christine L.

“Christine did such a wonderful job taking care of my cat. My cat stayed in hiding for every visit but she still did a great job of updating me on her food and water levels and assuring me that she was doing fine. She was easy to communicate with and very kind.”


12. Sam S.


“Sam was exactly who I needed to care for my pups. She is warm and friendly, affectionate with animals, on time and reliable. My dogs couldn't have been in better hands!”


13. Ernesto L.
“Ernesto is awesome! My pets love him, from my little dogs to my horses. He is very reliable and is my go to for pet sitting needs.”


14. Alejandro P.
“Alejandro is the best; I was a little bit hesitant about hiring a complete stranger to come and stay in my house and to watch over my dog but Alejandro put those concerns to rest. We received updates throughout the day, without having to ask, which helped put some of my concerns to rest. He is super clean and respectful, my house looked like he had not even been there (he was, we check the cameras). The biggest testament to Alejandro’s professionalism came from our fur baby, Abby, she didn’t want to leave his side when it came time to drop her off and as a dog owner, that alone is all the proof I needed to know she was treated well. Not only will I definitely hired Alejandro again, I will tell everyone I know about him!”




15. Annah L.

“Annah was great! Super responsive and shared great photos the whole time. One of our cats is very shy but she was able to make him come out and play really quickly. Couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter!”


16. Kevin & Anna N.

“Kevin and Anna were some of the best pet sitters I have ever had. They sent plenty of photos and really gave my girls the love and care they deserved. I felt extremely confident that if anything had happened they would have handled it with love, care and lots of communication. It really meant I was able to rest assured and enjoy my holiday. I absolutely will be using them again in the future!”


17. Jonathan & Chiel R.

“Jonathan and Chiel are amazing! This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. They communicated well, gave great updates and took great care of my dog. It was so nice to have peace of mind while on my trip. I will definitely use them again.”


18. Erin S.

“Erin was phenomenal. She was very patient with our cat, who can be a bit timid at first, but seemed to warm up to Erin faster than anyone we've ever introduced her to. Would definitely recommend Erin to anyone who needs a sitter, and we'll absolutely try to rebook her again in the future.”


19. Matt E.

“Matt has come over to take care of my kitty several times and has done a wonderful job! He tells me she meows like crazy when he feeds and plays with her. Definitely more than satisfied with his care!”


20. Angela H.
“Angela is a confirmed dog lover of all types. Angelas dog is so well behaved because of the love care and training she provides. She loves all dogs and they love her. Your dog will be very happy with angela.”
