1. Elizabeth O.

“Elizabeth was amazing! She was so good with our three dogs and cat. They are a handful and we worry leaving them with new people but Elizabeth put our minds at ease with frequent updates and photos. She stayed at our house and left it cleaner than she found it! She really thought of everything to make sure our late arrival home was as smooth as possible. Would 100% recommend Elizabeth!”


2. Amy R.

“I am so happy that Amy watched Roxy while we were away for a wedding. We could see that Roxy was in good hands and comfortable staying in her home. We received photos and updates every day and could see that Roxy was doing her thing. Amy also brought in our mail and newspapers. The house was in as good a condition as when we left. I would use Amy again in a heartbeat.”


3. Ashton W.

“Ashton was super awesome to work with. Very communicative and always on time. Sent great pics of the two pups, one who is geriatric and has some potty problems and there were no issues with either of them. In fact one of our pups got up in the middle of the night to see where Ashton was the first night we were back. We will definitely have Ashton back!”


4. Bronte B.

“I cannot say enough good things about Bronte. I’m always nervous leaving my dog alone because he’s anxious but she put me completely at ease. I almost feel like he was sad and mopey when he realized we were home and she wasn’t going to watch him anymore. I’m so grateful for the amazing care Bronte took with my dog.”


5. Gavin W.

“Gavin was great with our nervous dog and hungry cat! He followed all of our instructions and our pets loved him. We will definitely book him again.”




6. Lyndsay L.
“Lyndsay was great! We lost our usual dog sitter at the last minute, but she came to our rescue, responding to our request within minutes! She was very flexible with our schedules, and took such great care of our pups and home while we were out of town. Woody and Lily are definitely looking forward to us using Lyndsay in the future. P.S. Her dog Pablo is an absolute cutie pie!”


7. Lydia S.


“I’m so happy we found Lydia on Rover! She has such a wonderful personality and and our senior black lab, Sadie was so well cared for. I even think Sadie’s a bit depressed now that she’s gone! We had some power outages and Lydia handled everything with maturity beyond her years! She’s a gem!”


8. Julion S.

“When my other Rover cancelled on me last minute Julion happily stepped in and did an absolutely fantastic job watching my dog while I was away. Cannot say enough good things about his service and professionalism. From the pet care, daily updates, pictures, I would use him over and over and will recommend him to any and all.”


9. Moriah J.

“MJ was a delight. Very detail oriented and communicative on any questions that came up. Took great care of our senior pup + two cats. Would definitely book again.”


10. Ivan S.

“Ivan has shown tremendous patience with our overly anxious puppies. He was amazing with communication through out the stay. I plan on using him again for future trips and highly recommend him for others to use as well. The videos he sent were adorable and made us feel very safe for him to have out animals.”


11. Preaundrea F.


“Pre was a God send. She took great care of my pups for a weekend. She stayed in constant contact and my pups really enjoyed her being here. My only request for next time would be to talk with any sitter about cleaning. I am on the OCD side and when you have multiple dogs, having a clean and odor-free home is crucial to me. Sitters are not housekeepers but I would need to ensure the sitter is willing to do some light housekeeping. I would definitely use Pre again because she was accommodating and beyond personable. She felt like I had family watching my dogs.”


12. L J.

“My beloved pet suffers from separation anxiety and recently underwent leg surgery, which has made finding a caregiver like L J an absolute blessing. L J's care and attention to my furry companion have been exceptional. She displayed immense patience, kindness, and a remarkable responsiveness to his needs. Her friendly demeanor and extensive knowledge of animals have made her a standout choice. I enthusiastically recommend L J's services and plan to continue entrusting her with the care of my pet. Thanks a million, L J! ? Warm regards, Ruprecht & Natalia”


13. Tyasia V.

“Tyasia V. was a most wonderful caretaker of my cat Agape while I was away 4 and 1/2 days. She clearly loves animals and was very attentive and loving to my cat of 18 years with kidney disease. She was especially wonderful because she came about 5 times to not only meet Agape but learn how to give her infusions, injections of fluids she needs for her kidney disease, which she gave Agape in my absence along with other medications. She was so gentle with Agape as well as playful. She was honest, communicated regularly with me about Agape...sent photos. And left my apartment spotless. I will use her again when I have to go away for a short while. Thank you, Tyasia”


14. Emily T.

“Emily couldn’t have been nicer. Our dog is very nervous and has trouble adjusting to new people, Emily is the only sitter who has ever gotten a leash on her— she is patient and kind and really won her trust. She also cared for our cat who had health issues and was very conscientious about keeping us updated. Emily sent great pics throughout her stay, we’d love to have her again.”


15. Courtenay B.

“Courtenay was great to take care of my dog. She sent a lot of pictures and updates throughout the weekend. Left the house very clean and was obviously loved by our dog! Couldn’t recommend her more!”


16. Kevin D.

“Kevin is timely , responsible and kind. We were out of town with our two Vizslas (one an eight month old) and felt perfectly safe with Kevin caring for them in our hotel room and out walking g in SF. And our dogs loved him.”


17. Ryan B.

“Abu had a good overnight with Ryan! I love that he was able to enjoy the trails at the beautiful adjacent Druid Hill Park. He sent pictures of Abu getting both snuggles and exercise, and was great about being willing to work with Abu's inclination to chase cats, which will serve us well in our future cat-friendly training. I'm glad to have him as someone I can trust locally to care for my best buddy when I'm away.”


18. Katelyn D.


“Katelyn D was a great find for our furry baby . Originally we were looking for someone to take our dog out few times in 24 hours. Ketelyn offered to stop buy our place day before. She introduced herself, met our dog and made such positive impression that we decided to change our request and hire her for home stay. That was great decision. During Katelyn’s stay at our place she took great care of our dog. She took him out , gave him food played with him and supplied us with photo updates . Communication was great and easy. We are planning to keep Katelyn on recurrent booking for our dog as well we will recommend her services to our friends and family members with pets. A+ service as well as 5* review is well deserved.”




19. Robyn G.

“We couldn't use our regular dog sitters for a trip so decided to use Rover. Robyn was everything we could hope for and more!! She took care of our dog(Pepper) and kept us informed while we were away. It helped make our time away more enjoyable knowing how well Pepper was being taken care of!! Thank you for everything Robyn!! We got home and Pepper was happy to see us and the house was as we left it. We really appreciated al Robyn did all week with Pepper!!! Really made our trip that much more enjoyable knowing Robyn was here watching him. We also really appreciated all the updates and pictures! Robyn was TERRIFIC!!!”


20. Larree S.

“Larree is a true gem! She was absolutely wonderful with my two dogs-they fell in love with her immediately! I’m super anxious and Larree was extremely communicative, sending me photos and updates. I was able to relax knowing my babies were in such great hands and in the comfort and safety of their own home. Larree also kept our home spotless-it was like we never left! I’m so grateful we found a professional, reliable, and loving sitter!!”
