“Rebecca was absolutely amazing. I am 100% crazy about our pets and Rebecca treated our pups as if they were her own. Great updates throughout our vacation. I will recommend her to anyone and everyone. Next time we go out of town she will be the sitter we book! Thank you Rebecca!!”


“Alexandra went above and beyond to care for my picky senior cat for a week! She left a daily message, pictures, and cared for Tim as if he were her own cat. Highly recommend!”



“Did an outstanding job making sure my cats area was clean and tidy. Communication was great and made sure all was great for our cats. Will recommend to others and hope to use Matthew in the future when needed.”


“Paige was amazing! She was a quick responder to messages, communicative, detailed in her overviews of the drop ins, an extremely kind person, and did great/was accommodating with my cat! I would rebook in a heartbeat 😊”


“I was nervous about finding a sitter for my two bunnies, as not many people have experience with them. Lavinia asked questions and welcomed my extensive 2-page care instructions. While I was away, Lavinia kept me updated on how much the bunnies ate/drank, built bonds with both of them, sent me plenty of pictures, and didn’t hesitate to do weird things like tell me what the bunnies’ poops looked like 😂 Both my bunnies were happy when I returned, and the room was even tidied up for me. I’m so grateful!”


“Ronnie was very down to business, even brought a notebook when he came to get the keys and meet our cat! She ran right up to him when they met, and got plenty of playtime while we were gone.”



“Rachel is a true treasure. So much so that I’m reluctant to let the rest of the world know how wonderful she is. She is dependable, kind, and very generous with the dogs in her care. If you are lucky enough to have her care for your dog, be prepared at times to feel like your dog’s second favorite person.”


“Gabrielle is an absolute pro! She’s super professional and has a calming presence that makes you feel at ease. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. She did wonderful drop ins to support our elderly lab as he does best at home and does have trouble with stairs. She’s a lifesaver! I’d definitely book her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

Highland pet parents share their Rover experiences
Paige is so nice! She spent a good amount of time petting and playing with our cat. We came home to a well-fed, happy kitty.

Lavinia is the absolute best!! Our golden retriever loved spending time with her in our home! She sent us plenty of pictures each day of their time together, along with detailed notes on how our pup did! She was very respectful, and she followed all of our instructions! This was our first time having a babysitter for our dog that wasn’t family, so we were feeling nervous. Lavinia was the perfect match for our dog/ family, and she made this the best experience for us! We will be booking with her again!!

Melissa was very attentive to all of our directions. She kept us updated on our animals with photos and updates on bathrooms, food, water, and even our home. Would 100% book again. She definitely undercharges for the value of her service.

Tina was so amazing taking care of my cats! We had a great meet and greet where she got to know them and their routines, and while I was away she followed directions exactly and provided the BEST updates. She was super communicative and thorough- I get super nervous leaving my cats but I felt SO at ease. Highly recommend Tina and will definitely use her again in the future!

Kelsey is amazing. My animals act as though I never left. She is thorough in her updates and extremely attentive to my pets needs.

Isabella was so amazing!! She was extremely communicative and wonderful to work with. She took great care of my cats and they loved her visits. She took great care of them and sent great photos every visit. I trust her very much and would highly recommend her to anyone I know!

I've had Neka sit for me twice now and he does amazing, he always goes above and beyond what I ask of him. The cats love him, and he takes such good care of them. Thank you Neka, you're my go-to!

Joey is amazing with all my animals. My Cane Corso takes special introducing and not everyone I introduce him to takes the job. He liked Joey from the first day. I actually have a little farmstead with several types of animals, including a horse, a goat, an emu, over 50 chickens and other types of fowl. I even feed some of the wildlife! Joey does all of it. I get great pics and I'm always so happy with the detailed list he leaves of all the chores and extras that he does. He even remembers things that I forget to mention sometimes! Number one call for me all the time is Joey. Besides, he gave me a very reasonable farmstead rate. I highly recommend this sitter, especially if you have animals not listed on Rover!

Daniel is really helpful and accommodating for my cat who generally dislikes most people. I’m grateful to know he’s checking in our her and making sure she gets her daily medication. Thanks, Daniel!!

Squeaker and Ariel were happy to see Wei arrive every morning and evening while I was away, especially when it was time for treats and, for Squeaker, brushing his coat. Ariel apologizes for her hissing, she takes a while to show her friendly feline nature! It was nice to see photos of my cats while I was away. Wei was proactive in dealing with issues by maintaining communication while I was out of the country.

Steffen is very friendly and reliable. We are very lucky to have Steffen care for our cats when we are away.

Morgan was absolutely amazing as a pet sitter for our dog, Ben, during our trip to the Tinker Nature Park and the Genesee Country Village and Museum. From the moment they met, Ben took to her instantly, going straight with her like they’d always known each other! He got to enjoy parks and even a Starbucks pup cup while riding up front in her car—talk about VIP treatment! Morgan’s communication was excellent. She met us at each of our destinations, making pick-ups and drop-offs so convenient. Plus, she helped make our trip even better by recommending local foods and must-see spots in the area, which was so thoughtful since we're not from there. One of the standout moments was when she caught a scheduling error in my vacation plans that I hadn’t noticed, which saved a big chunk of the trip from chaos. Honestly, Morgan didn’t just pet-sit; she helped make our vacation smoother and more enjoyable than we could’ve imagined. She’s truly perfect at what she does, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter!

Melaney was great! Booked her as a drop in and was super flexible and took great care of my pets. Will definitely rebook with her!

Samantha was fantastic she was on time and my dogs loved her! I'll definitely be using her in the future.

Kiera takes great care of my dog and is always available for communications. I received awesome pictures too! Will definitely book again!

Karen was fantastic! Ximena was very happy and loved to spent time with her. She came for drop in visits 2 days in a row and even spent longer time just to give her some more company! We would love to have her again :)

Kate always sends lots of pictures! Very trustworthy and great communication! I feel at ease when I’m away from home knowing she’ll take good care of my babies.

I always feel very comfortable when I have Alyssa coming over to take care of my cats! She’s great at communicating and following my directions!

Hollis took care of our two dogs, cats, chickens, and bearded dragon for a week. He was very kind and communicated/sent pics often. I texted him multiple times and he always responded. He even washed our dogs bedding before we got home. He went above and beyond. I would highly recommend him. Hollis truly cares about all animals!
