“Our pup LOVES Gabi. When we returned from a 10 day trip she acted like we just took a short trip to the store. She used to have hair loss and digestive issues after a long trip. This time none of that!”

“Judith and Cynthia did a great job looking after our two 'giant' dogs (St. Bernard & Mastiff) for a long weekend. They were prompt, sent out updates and pcitures every day, and generally made us feel comfortable that our pups were being well taken care of. This was our first foray into getting a Rover sitter, and while we were nervous, they made it less stressful.”

“Beth was such a pleasure to have as our dog/house sitter. Our Peach was very well taken care of and Beth was great about sending us updates with pictures! I felt very comfortable with having her be the one to watch our pup as well as the house. Peach was sad to see her go but will for sure be using her again for future traveling! Highly recommended Beth! ☺️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Anna is an excellent pet sitter. She is responsible, compassionate, caring for our dog and takes wonderful pictures. Anna won’t hesitate to call or text you with any questions. She left our dog happy, home clean and us relaxed knowing our dog was well taken care of. Thank You”

“Sarah stayed at my house for a week over the holidays and was communicative, followed instructions, and my cat warmed up to her quickly. She left the place clean and tidy. Super appreciated her help!”

“Grace was excellent! She checked in regularly, sent lots of pics of Tini and genuinely cared about Tini and her comfort (she's a Senior dog). Grace was respectful of our home and we came home to a clean house, she even washed and folded the sheets she used. We will definitely use Grace again, Tini was very well cared for! Thank you Grace!”

“Carolyn is great! She took excellent care of our two dogs, two cats, and our home. Highly communicative and responsive, which provides us with great peace of mind while we are away.”


“Maria did an awesome job! My first time using Rover and she was extremely good with communication/pictures throughout her time at our home. Can't wait to use her again! Thank you, Maria!”

“Scott took such great care of our two pups when we were out of town. We are so grateful we were able to book his services at the last minute. We got consistent updates on how our pups were doing while we were gone and we could tell they were nice and relaxed and were able to spend a lot of their time outside. We really hope to book his services again soon!”

Lamar was an amazing pet expert and friend to Mango. He suggested a pre meet and greet which was so thoughtful and helpful. The meet and greet allowed Mango to get to know him in advance with no threat of us leaving. She literally took to him from the minute he arrived and it really never changed. His enthusiasm and expertise are apparent immediately as are his strong desire to understand the pet and the owners objectives. We are looking forward to many more playdates with Lamar and Mango!
look no further, julia is amazing and we are so happy we found her! we’ve never left our dog home with someone he and we didn’t know so we were a bit hesitant, but julia exceeded all our expectations. leo really enjoyed her company and she went above and beyond to make sure he was well taken care of. julia sent wonderful updates and photos of leo, they had a great time and enjoyed lots of snuggles and walks. thank you julia! we will definitely reach out again the next time we need someone to watch leo.
