“We were so happy Rachel was available for the holiday weekend. We didn’t have to worry about about leaving our beloved dogs at all because Rachel is a pro! She books up quickly for a reason!”

“Emily did a fantastic job watching Tuukka while we were traveling to India for a wedding. She sent daily updates with lots of photos and we knew our pup was well take care of when we were away!”

“Libby was wonderful with taking care of my cat and dog! She made sure they were both safe, fed and exercised. She also did extra house needs, like taking in the mail, watering the flowers and attending to my garbage cans on weekly pick-up! Highly Recommended!”

“Emily was prompt, respectful, and communicative. She sent pictures and updates and my dog seemed very comfortable and calm when I returned. I highly recommend Emily and will happily book her again in the future if I need a dog sitter!”

“Our family had recently experienced a loss of our other pet. It was a tough time for travel but Jessica supported our other pet while we were away. She kept us informed and made the world of difference being away during such a difficult time.”

“Megan was so great! We got lots of pics and videos and our pups were happy and chill when we got back, even after it being too cold to go outside much. Will definitely call again - thanks!”

“Elizabeth did the most fantastic job with our dog Annie. She was always fast to respond and sent multiple updates with pictures! Annie can be reactive and has grudges against many of our neighbors dogs so leaving her with someone new for neighborhood walks can be daunting. I felt completely confident in Elizabeth after one walk with her and Annie. We will absolutely be reaching back out to Elizabeth the next time we are looking for a rover! Thank you so much for the best first rover experience.”

“We had Keisha stay for a 7 day sit for our dog and cat. Keisha was incredible and everything we could have ever wanted in a sitter! She sent us updates at least daily, sometimes more with pictures which is what we requested! I made an error and she was flexible with adding another day to her stay! Could not recommend her enough, we will definitely use her again in the future!!”

“Lauren did a great job taking care of the boys while we were away. She gave them plenty of exercise and engagement as well as keeping them on their regular schedule. Very much appreciated and we hope to book again.”

“Ashley was So responsive and Wonderful with my boys! Thankful she was able to watch them in their house!! Will definitely book again if she is willing to watch them!!”

“As always, Lily goes above and beyond. Helped navigate an u expected, significant GI problem with one of the dogs that required a visit for emergency care and helping mitigate a significant clean-up job. Communicated fantastically throughout the saga”

“Catherine did a wonderful job house sitting. She took attentive care of our two dogs and cat. She provided great updates and our dogs looked so happy in every picture. We had total peace of mind with Catherine watching our home.”


“I was away for 10 days in July, the longest I’ve ever left my dog, Miley. Once again, Carole was wonderful and was Max. Miley takes time to warm up to people and she’s great with Carole and Max—it’s a relief knowing that Miley is in such good hands!”

“Karla was amazing!! She was super responsive and sent many updates each day we were gone. Kuzco is still a puppy and can be wild at times, and she handled him perfectly. Would use her again for sure!”

“Berenice was great!!! She was easy to get in touch with and sent lots of pictures! My puppy was so happy to see her and tuckered out when I saw him indicating that all his physical and mental needs were met during his full day of care. Trustworthy and reliable! Would definitely book again”

“We love having Cindy to house sit our dog ! Besides taking care of the dog, she does so many other little things to show how much she cares for the people and animals she takes care of!”

“Jackie was absolutely wonderful! Not only did she take excellent care of our high-need 16.5-year-old dog, she also took great care of our home. She provided updates along the way and followed all of our instructions for caring for Jack (no small feat). We can't speak highly enough about Jackie.”
“Meghan was amazing! Our dog loved her and she made sure he is comfortable and happy while we were gone. She sent us multiple updates with pictures of our sweet little pup. She followed all his feeding and walking routines to the t and communication was stellar. We couldn’t be happier. Our Shurik definitely found a new friend.”

“Maiah did a terrific job taking care of my dog. She gave us daily updates and photos, left the house clean and even stayed with my dog so she didn’t get lonely! Amazing!”

“Julianna Stayed in my house for five nights/six days and took excellent care of my large, high-energy Siberian Husky. It can be hard to find a trustworthy house/dog sitter sitter outside of personal friends and family, but I couldn’t have been more satisfied.”

Hillside pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jessica is an absolute pro when it comes to dogsitting. We recently rescued two dogs, and they can be quite a handful as they're acclimating to their new home. She was unfazed with Rocky's barking, and had Gordo snuggling in no time. Jessica sent regular updates and photos, which made me feel better, since it was our first time away from them overnight. I highly recommend Jessica, and would love to have her back in the future.

Flor was an EXCELLENT sitter to our dog Toast! We left on a trip for 5 days and she took amazing care of not only our dog, but our house as well! She was a great communicator and sent a ton of pictures! She also was great at giving our dog his medicine. We would absolutely book Flor again!

Steely my dog was in great hands with Megan. He was very happy to see her when she came back after the meet and greet. She kept me up to date regularly and sent me multiple pictures a day which made me feel so good being away. She asked appropriate questions regarding his care instructions. Also the residents in my 55 and over apartment building were very complimentary about her. I would absolutely have her take care of my boy again. Thank you Megan!🩷
Carrianne is fantastic. She befriended my shy cat on their first meeting. Great and responsive at communicating about everything. Completely understood the medication schedule and carried it out. Really grateful to have found someone so responsible and caring.

Once again, Lily exceeded our expectations. She was so caring and attentive to Bailey during her 11 day stay in our home. She handled a long stretch of horrible weather (including a power outage) and sent us pictures that showed how much Bailey was enjoying playtimes, walks, and cuddles in our absence. The house was in great condition when we returned.

Keisha was absolutely great with our young dog. We were feeling anxious as it was our first time leaving him for vacation. She provided constant updates to ease our worried minds and took great care of him and our apartment. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and a clean home. What more could you ask for? If we go on a trip again while living in the area we will 100% be booking with Keisha again. 5/5 stars no complaints.
