Ashley was wonderful with Rocky and very dependable. She not only took care of Rocky’s needs, she played with him and made sure he was not feeling lonely. She was excellent about communicating with us. This service is so helpful.

Nejra is amazing. She came and met Bear and was very loving. She cared for my boy and gave him all the love he deserves! I would definitely rebook with her with no doubt in my mind!

We’re so thankful to have Morgan check in on our doggies yet again! She does an amazing job of caring for them and taking the cutest pictures to send to us while we’re away! Looking forward to our next vacation because we know our doggies are in great hands!

Alisa did a great job with a drop in visit to feed and let our dog outside. She arrived timely, stayed the appropriate amount of time and took a couple photos for us.

Jen took very good care of our 2 cats with her drop in visits twice a day. One of our cats is diabetic so she has to be fed 12 hours a part and given an injection after the feedings each time. We asked her with very short lead time and she took the time to come to our house so we could meet her and she could meet our cats before the booking. We appreciated this very much.

Megan was able to make a home visit in the middle of the day on short notice. Though she was there a short duration, she still sent pictures. We could tell our dog was happy to see her again.

This was our first time using Rover. We asked Lisa to see about helping us out when we were going out of town because she has many repeat customers and great reviews. She agreed to watch our cats and came to our house prior to meet the cats and get any special directions. Lisa asked questions and even got to pet a few of our cats. During out vacation she stopped by and kept us updated on how things were going including pictures! Thanks Lisa! We look forward to seeing you next vacation!

Alishea is so good with my pup! He is young and still a bit skiddish with new people. She is kind and patient with him and is so consistent - which he needs. Thank you for everything, Alishea!

Karly is always amazing with our fur babies. She was able to adjust the schedule to accommodate a later shift for my husband and she stopped back to check on them so we didn’t have to worry. Love that she is so reliable and loves them like we do.

Thank you for watching my princess while I was on my vacation. Because she is shy around strangers, it was such a relief to see her trust you and become more comfortable with you each day
