1. Leesa H.

“Leesa watched my lil loves for a few days and did a fabulous job. She spent quality time cuddling and spoiling them. I highly recommend Leesa! My kiddos love her!”


2. Mia S.

“Mia made fast friends with my 2 rescues! And they don’t usually warm up to strangers quickly. (They weren’t treated well by the people who had them for the first 6 months or so of their lives.) Mia kept me up to speed on their adventures while I was gone, sending me pictures and telling me how they were doing. I am so glad that we found Mia - I will definitely use her again to care for my kids! 🐾🥰”


3. Tatum L.

“Tatum was awesome. She took the best care of my dogs (5 of them) and my house. Kept me informed of everything including coyotes who broke through the fence and snowfall we had, shoveled a path for our big boy to do his business, Swept the floors and took out trash. She even brought in the mail. We will definitely use her again.”


4. Rebecca T.

“Rebecca was absolutely amazing! She was available for a 5 day, 4 night stay at a short notice. She sent daily updates on our two girls who were doing amazing. They got cuddles, walks and all of the attention that I would have given them. Being away from home can be stressful, but the one thing I didn't have to worry about was the great care that was being given to our dogs!! Can't say enough good things!”


5. Katharine V.

“Katie was the perfect choice! I booked her to watch my dogs overnight on my wedding day! She went over & beyond for me! Got them ready & drove the dogs to the venue for pictures! I knew my babies were in the right hands all day! I was not stressed one bit! Communication was smooth and very reliable! I highly recommend Katie! She truly cares for our pets.”


6. Monroe B.

“I have never left on vacation without feeling complete angst about leaving my dogs behind. They usually spend the entire week hiding under the bed when we hire house sitters. But with Monroe, they seemed to not even realize I was gone! When I returned it was just like I came home from work that day - they were relaxed and happy to see me then went on about their day. I can't say enough good things.”


7. Michael K.


“Michael took care of our dog and cats while we were out of town and he did a great job! He was polite, punctual, and communicative. He sent many updates and photos, which we love! Would definitely recommend him and we plan to use him again!”


8. Claire W.

“Absolutely fantastic experience! Claire took amazing care of our dogs for a full week, staying overnight and treating them like family. We came home to happy, relaxed pups. Communication was great throughout, with regular updates and photos. Truly went above and beyond—highly recommend and would book again in a heartbeat!”


9. Chloe P.

“Chloe is an outstanding sitter! She took great care of our pups, communicated well, and we felt so comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. Will definitely use her again and again and again!”


10. sophie l.

“Sophie was amazing with our pups. They have missed her since we got home. Dogs had plenty of attention and she even took them on a walk. Will definitely use her again!”


11. Christina D.

“Best dog sitter we have had to date. Christina was amazing from the get go. Kept us up to date and made sure our 3 dogs were well loved and taken care of while we were on vacation. Would recommend her to any and everyone!”


12. Liesa B.


“Liesa did a great job. She followed instructions and stayed a little after due to our concert going late. It was a long day and we had to leave Lily alone a couple of times already, so her willingness to stay after was a big help. We received pictures of our little girl and she was easy to communicate with.”


13. Yolena M.

“This was my 1st time using Rover and having a dog sitter that comes to my house. Yolena was very great with caring for my 3 dogs. She gave me daily reports and addressed any concerns or questions I had. I plan on using her services again in the future.”


14. Ben P.

“Ben did a great job again!!!!! Had a few surprise deliveries that I wasn’t expecting and he was great help with those. And the shy kitty ended up purring on his lap. That says it all.”


15. Jadyn D.

“Jadyn was our first dog sitter experience and we couldn’t be happier. We had so much anxiety going on vacation with a brand new puppy. Jadyn had a metal fencing for him, sent pictures and videos of him going on his very first walk and put our worries at ease. We’ll definitely use her again and would recommend her services. We appreciate making our vacation so much for relaxing. ☺️”


16. Lisa V.

“Lisa took the best care of my babies while I was away. It was very apparent that she gave them the same degree of quality time that I give them myself. Would definitely request her services again if needed in the future.”


17. Janice C.

“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”


18. Kaylyn C.

“Kaylyn was fabulous!!! We were her first client as she is new to Rover. Our almost 15 year old dog started with tummy issues and Kaylyn was so patient with her. She comforted her, cleaned up after her and took great care of her. Kaylyn kept us informed the entire stay also. Fortunately we realized what was causing the tummy problems (I bought new treats that didn't agree with her) and then Kaylyn was able to just enjoy being with her. She took her on 2 walks a day and our house was so clean when we got home. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her!!”


19. Petey P.

“Petey was absolutely amazing with my two pups. He checked in with us multiple times a day and when one of our dogs wasn’t feeling well he did a wonderful job of taking care of her. He will definitely be our 1st choice dog sitter moving forward.”
