“I had to hire Peter at the last minute after my other sitter wasn't a good fit. All I can say is everything happens for a reason. Peter was so attentive and caring to my senior pup, it was night and day from my previous experiences. Peter checked in and followed all my care instructions and went above my expectations. I will definitely use his services again!”
“Two words to describe Steph dependable and kind. I booked with Steph about 6 months in advance, she mentioned having experience with animals that have special physical and social needs. She really proved it. She took Max out as often as I asked, every time. She also went a step further and took my energy filled guy on a few walks. She sent me videos/pics as often as we discussed from the beginning. He even played with his toys with her, he never does that!! I also wanted someone who would be home with Max my entire trip away, she kept him company the entire time. Steph was accommodating to the fullest with our schedule and needs. The best part, I arrived home to find Max so calm and joyous (apart from the norm). You could tell his soul was happy and he was the most well taken care of he has ever been!”
“Hayden provided our two pups EXCEPTIONAL care while we were gone on a 5 day trip. Our senior dog requires medications multiple times a day, and Hayden was able to administer them all with no issue!! She kept us updated with photos throughout our whole trip, it gave us such peace of mind. I can’t recommend her enough!!! We are so grateful for her & know our pups love her just as much!”
“Sara did a terrific job taking care of our dog and cat. She kept us updated on how they were doing and didn’t hesitate to ask questions if she needed information on how to provide the best care. Thank you, Sara.”
“Kyleigh did such a wonderful job watching the dogs! She left our house clean, even stripping the bed for easy washing. We came home and it was felt like we had just left! We’re so grateful for her taking care of our babies!”
“I needed a last minute sitter for a holiday weekend and Ashlyn was available and excited to help. She was so good with my senior dogs and all of their quirks. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Courtney is wonderful! My cat didn't miss me because Courtney took such good care of her. This meant a lot to me because it was one of the first times I left my cat in someone else's care. I would not hesitate to use Courtney again! Courtney is a caring, conscientious animal sitter. She clearly loves animals. She also left everything spotless! I highly recommend Courtney if you want an animal sitter you can count on to follow your instructions and is dependable, diligent and caring.”
“Morgan did a great job taking care of our elderly dogs! It was a bit of a last minute trip so we were grateful she was available for a holiday weekend. When we got home the pups were happy and the house looked as if no one had been here. Highly recommend!”

“Saskia was absolutely phenomenal caring for our dog and two cats while we were away. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared for our pets and treated them as if they were her own. When we returned home, our pets were happy, well cared for, and our house was left in pristine condition. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Saskia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her again!”

Hoover pet parents share their Rover experiences
Courtney was great! She watched our house and dogs while we were out of town for the week. She sent photos everyday, and was very quick to update us on my dog’s storm anxiety when a big storm came through. When we got home, Courtney had left the house in better shape than she found it-she even vacuumed! We will definitely reach out to her again and would highly recommend her!
Hayden provided our two pups EXCEPTIONAL care while we were gone on a 5 day trip. Our senior dog requires medications multiple times a day, and Hayden was able to administer them all with no issue!! She kept us updated with photos throughout our whole trip, it gave us such peace of mind. I can’t recommend her enough!!! We are so grateful for her & know our pups love her just as much!
Peter did great house sitting with both of our dogs. He was right on time for the meet and greet beforehand and asked good questions. He was very communicative and responsive while at our home, giving us updates. He took great care of the dogs and took them on daily walks which they loved. Would book again!
Joy stayed with our sweet dog, Scout on Thanksgiving evening. I had given up hope of finding someone to stay with him.. Scout has separation anxiety and can not be left alone. Joy came to the rescue and Scout really liked her right away. She text me pictures of Scout with updates on how he was doing. In one of the pictures I could see that she was sitting on the floor next to Scout and he looked so relaxed and happy. I really thought that was so sweet! Joy was so attentive to Scout and sweet to him. I would love for her to stay with him again!
Sarah Katherine was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our pups, cat, and home! One of our dogs had some stomach issues while we were away and Sarah Katherine went above and beyond looking after him and made sure he was okay. She was communicative and incredibly sweet. We were thankful to have to her stay with our pets!
Stephanie and Jax are amazing! She was so gracious and flexible to come watch my pups last minute. She took such good care of our home and pups which eased our minds while we were away! She went above and beyond more than she needed to - even vacuumed our house for when we got back! Definitely will book again! :)
Danielle was a superstar for our dog Maddie! She managed a 10 day house sitting job perfectly! Dog walks got done per Maddie's usual schedule, and she made sure Maddie got lots of attention. We got pictures and comments daily. Our home was left in perfect condition—Danielle washed the sheets and towels she used and the kitchen was spotless. She even notified us of an unexpected window leak during a heavy rain and took care of maintaining the mess so no worse damage was done. This was a winning situation for us to have peace of mind while away and for Maddie to feel secure during our absence too. We will definitely book her again as a need comes up—and refer her to anyone looking for loving, reliable help.
Mollie was a GREAT caretaker for our 140 lb. Scout and 14-year-old Sierra. She has a great calm presence and we felt very confident leaving our two dogs with her for 7 days. Our big dog never made her nervous and Sierra came out of her shell with Mollie. Why didn't we ever do this before. Mollie took good care of them and all their little quirks, as well as gave them medicine for their old age issues. I'm sure she gave them lots of TLC, too, if the pictures she sent us were any evidence. Thanks, Mollie, for all you did for them, as well as for us, to take good care of them!
