“Michelle was a fantastic sitter for us, she was able to accommodate us on short notice and work with our schedule for the day to ensure that our boy had someone to keep him company while we were gone :). We got updates, pictures, and she took him on two walks that day to make sure he had an outlet for all his energy. After our experience with Michelle, we'll definitely be using her again!”
“Jeffrey took care of our two dogs and house for a week, and we were so pleased with his careful, loving handling of animals and home. He communicated regularly and we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying. Highly recommend Jeffrey! Super reliable and great to work with.”
“Johanna was great with our pups. She arrived on time and always answered my messages. We had some issue with our flight back home and she was very flexible and helpful! Will work with her again for sure”
“Mariah has watched Bear and Ollie over two different weekends in our home. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter! She goes above and beyond every time—sending lots of photo updates, giving the pups tons of love, and even helping with little things like brushing out ear mats from roughhousing. We always come home a clean house, and we’re so grateful to have found her. We will absolutely book again!”
“Michael was absolutely amazing with my 2 old men, he was very communicative, they loved him, and he was very attentive to their individual needs and personalities. Will definitely book with him again!”
“There are not enough good things to say about our experience with Alex. I am normally a basket case with just leaving LeeLoo but now we have our 3 month old, Zeppelin, whom we cannot board. Alex was beyond attentive to their needs, schedules, and our instructions. He is very respectful and knows animal behavior. Our home was left in the same (actually better) condition than when we left. He provided updates frequently. But most of all, when we got home… the dogs weren’t even that excited to see us 😂😂😂😂. They were comfortable and cared for extremely well. Will be booking Alex again for sure.”
“Joely was absolutely amazing with our dog, Murphy! She was so sweet and caring, and kept us updated daily with photos and messages that really put our minds at ease while we were out of town. Murphy can be shy at first, but he warmed up to her very quickly and they bonded. Our dog also takes medication twice a day, and Joely handled it perfectly. We’re so thankful for her and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Christine has been a great sitter for my two dogs- one who can be very slow to trust sitters and she always keeps me informed with pictures and dogs are happy!”
“Nadia is a god send, she is so sweet. She has a wide knowledge base for different types of personailities, communicated with me daily and was happy to give updates. The pups loved her. Nadia followed all instructions to a tee. Reasonable fees, on time, trustworthy, and kept my house clean. Would definitely recommend Nadia.”
“Jamie is the best! Our dogs loved her; she was great with them. Took them for walks and snuggled with them on the couch. She communicated regularly with videos and photos, so we were able to relax and enjoy our trip. And she cleaned the house before we got home. All really great!!”
“Dina took great care of both my dog and my house while I was away! My dog Penny takes a while to warm up to new people but she seemed very happy with Dina.”
“Kate was amazing. She stayed overnight to care for our cat while we were away. She was very communicative, responsible, and took great care of our cat. I highly recommend.”
“Elena was amazing. 10/10. Have already booked her again. Beyond impressed with professionalism, update frequency, and of course, she clearly really cares for the animals. Thank you!”
“She’s just the best. Our animals are happy, healthy and well taken care of. We feel safe leaving them with her—it’s the best you could ask! Thanks again Magdalena”
“Amanda was so great and flexible with my two dogs! Her communication was just the level I needed. Thank you for taking such good care of my babies, it’s appreciated more than you know!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Crystal, and we had a great experience! We opted for the house sitting and she gave us daily updates and our pup looked happy and relaxed. We’ve already rebooked her for the end of the month! Thank you Crystal!”
Hays pet parents share their Rover experiences
I had a wonderful house / pet sitting experience with Kaitlyn. Her exceptional reliability and timely communications/updates provided much appreciated travel peace of mind and both of my dogs were happy and healthy. She was very attentive to my "girls" too - even quickly reacting and caring for a heat rash that developed on one of them. Lastly, she took great care of my house too - leaving it clean and tidy. We'll definitely use Kaitlyn for future sittings.
Michelle was so incredible. This was my first time having a dog sitter for my 8yr old vizsla + my new vizsla puppy, I have always had anxiety over leaving them with anyone but my parents but we recently moved so needed to find a sitter for them. Michelle made my first experience so positive. She was SO communicative, so patient with my very high energy and needy girls, and was so respectful of my home! I genuinely didn’t worry about them once in her care. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you, Michelle!!!
Loved Robin from the get go. She was very communicative before and during her pet sitting gig. My boys loved having her around. She was excellent at following our routine. She also send a ton of pics. It definitely made us feel at ease. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.
Trinity was amazing! We have a very reactive, nervous English bulldog and an 8 year old cat on medication, and she took as good care of them as we would have! It is so nice to have a sitter that we can rely on with our sweet (difficult) Hank and we were able to enjoy our trip knowing that he was with someone who would care for him fully while respecting his boundaries. Our home was left perfectly clean, and we even came back to a little goodie-bag of treats and a thank you note! We love Trinity!🩷
This was the third (and longest) stay that Strider was with my 3 dogs and it was just as great as the last. He provides thorough updates, even when I’m too busy to reply, and you can tell my dogs are very comfortable with him. He leaves my home in great condition (stripping the bed, dishes in dishwasher and trash out). He’s even gone so far as to unload my dishwasher for me! Thank you so much for being reliable during this very busy month for us!!
