“Mark was incredibly amazing!! 1000/10 recommend! I got updates on Milo’s every move! I will definitely be using Mark as long as I’m here in Fayetteville! Thank you so much for taking care of my baby boy over the weekend!”
“Originally, I was worried about leaving my dog with anybody else, other than family due to his separation anxiety. But Phedre phenomenal job! He really enjoyed his time with her.”
“Aaron did an amazing job house sitting our dog. She trusted him right away. He is great at communicating, reliable and polite. Aaron sent tons of cute pics while we were away so we never had to worry. We 100% recommend him!”
“Brooke did a fantastic job taking care of our two boys! She was in constant contact, so we were always up to date with what they were doing. She spoiled them with lots of hikes and pup cups - they were probably sad to have us come home! She left our place nice and clean, and even washed our sheets before she left. Would highly recommend having Brooke watch your pups!”
“Look no further! Cynthia is caring, thorough, communicative, and attentive. Ahead of our meet and greet, she sent me a list of excellent questions and topics for us to discuss that would help inform her stay at our home and care of our two dogs. She didn't bat an eye at my detailed list of information and our dog's needs. In conjunction with her lovely disposition, genuine care for animals, she was a fantastic communicator while we were away, and even kept tabs on our fish and cared for my flowers. She left our house incredibly clean and was such a blessing during our two weeks away - which is a long time to leave your fur babies! I feel so fortunate to have found her and am grateful for her care and extraordinary flexibility when I realized I had booked the wrong end date! Thank you, Cynthia!”
“Michael is wonderful! He took my older dog to his home where she had a great time and then came twice a day to feed my cats, clean their boxes, pick up mail, and water some potted plants. I appreciate the care he gave my dog because she recently had shoulder surgery and extensive therapy. She is also somewhat dog selective but he took that in stride and she happily went on walks with him and car rides which she loved. He sent me pictures and I could tell by the look on her face that she was enjoying herself! This means a lot to me because of her age and makes traveling easier when I know she and my cats are in good hands!”
“Caroline is the best pet sitter I have ever had. I had a wedding weekend and Caroline stayed at my house with my two dogs Utah and Bodey. My French Bulldog Bodey can be difficult at times and he needs to warm up to new people in his life. Caroline gave him love and affection until Bodey finally gave in to her ways. Caroline showed patience and poise while watching him. As a pet owner who has a dog like Bodey, it put me at ease knowing he was in terrific hands. Bodey even had his "moments" with Caroline but she handled it perfectly. I trust Caroline full heartedly to take care of my two little guys. Lastly, Caroline took amazing care of my place while I was gone. It was spotless upon my return.”
“Sarah was super attentive, responsive and even cleaned the house before she left. The dogs loved her and we will definitely be having her watch our dogs again”
“Renee stayed at our house and watched our cat, Sunny, while we were out of the country for over a week. I refer to Renee as Sunny’s best friend. She is so well taken care of, with lots of cuddle time and play time. Renee also takes care of our house, from shoveling the driveway to washing laundry, to vacuuming. I am a return customer of Renee’s and recommend her to anyone who has a pet that needs extra attention and doesn’t want to be left alone.”
“Allison was great with our somewhat high-needs pups. We have one senior dog and one dog currently going through heartworm treatment. She was a very clear communicator and always checked to make sure she understood their medications and routines. She took initiative and had a list of information that she needed in order to best take care of our pups instead of just leaving it to us to try to think of what would be helpful to know. She set communication expectations up front by letting us know that she would send one update a day in the evening. I really appreciated this so that I wouldn't have to wonder if/when we would hear from her. Our dogs seemed very happy and content when we got home and our house was very neat and clean! We would not hesitate to book with her again in the future.”
“Deb was wonderful! She took extra special and individualized care of our two very different pups and just went above and beyond in general. The daily updates with pictures helped us to know our dogs were in great hands!”
“Xavier was great with our girls. He took them each for walks, played outside with them, and took them for trips to the dog park while we were away for the weekend. There were constant updates & great communication. Our girls loved their time with him.”
“Jennifer was awesome. I booked her last minute which is always a bit of a headache. But she was accommodating and came over quickly for a meet and greet. She took great care of our animals. Would definitely use her again.”
“Kristi was great. Easy communication and booking. She was very tidy and went above and beyond what we were expecting as a house guest. She sent pictures and messages during the stay of our dog which was awesome. She took care of the meds and gave Star plenty of love. We will be booking with Kristi again!”
“Alix did a great job taking care of my dog Ruby while I was away! Kept me updated with photos throughout the day. I came home to a happy, well-cared for pup. I would definitely recommend Alix!”

Hillcrest pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had the pleasure of leaving my two rescue dogs with Dani for a short stay, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! As a first-time Rover user, we were a bit nervous, but Dani immediately put our minds at ease during our meet and greet. She has an incredible understanding of dog behavior, and it was clear she was patient and gentle with our dogs, who both have their quirks. Dani took the time to get to know them and made sure they felt comfortable and safe. Throughout the stay, she communicated regularly, sending us pictures and updates, which reassured me they were in great hands. We highly recommend Dani, and we will definitely be booking her again in the future!

Kristi was AH-mazing with my pups. I have 2 big active dogs, and 1 senior dog, and she made all of them feel comfortable, loved, and active. She sent so many pictures of them enjoying walks, swims, and treats. They also felt so comfortable with her they always wanted to lay right on top of her to get as close as they could. She did a phenomenal job, and I am so thrilled she will be watching them on all of my other planned trips. ☺️
It is really hard entrusting your furkids to someone you don't know since this was the first time using Ryan to stay with our senior & a puppy. Overall, communication was great, doggies well cared for and Ryan went above and beyond getting a stain out of the carpet. We wouldn't hesitate using him again to sit.
Theo was amazing with our 2 dogs. We had to go on a last minute trip and they were super quick with their response and meet and greet. Super kind and friendly, I would recommend Theo for all your animal watching needs! We will definitely be using them again! Thank you!
Kenzie did a fantastic job! She was very communicative, responsible and trustworthy. Our house was just as clean when we got home when we left it and all the animals were happy and well cared for. Would definitely ask her again to housesit. Should the need arise. Thank you very much, Kenzie!
What a FANTASTIC first experience with Rover. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog. This was the first time leaving my dog with somebody I did not know. And she made me feel at ease. She sent many updates with photos of their daily shenanigans and it definitely gave me peace of mind. I highly suggest anybody looking for a sitter. You do not need to look any further.! Thank you for such an awesome experience. I’ll be back for your services in the nearest future.😀
Hailey was so great! I appreciated her being very communicative and responding fast throughout this whole stay. I will definitely be asking her to help me watch my dog in the future. She even took my dog out for a drive which I know my dog enjoyed. Thank you Hailey, you’re awesome.
