“Blue was very happy after his walk!”
2. Lisa B.
“I just want to give a huge shoutout to Lisa for all the amazing help she’s been for me and my dog, Angel. Since I found her on Rover, she’s been super reliable and has taken such great care of Angel this week. Lisa always sends me updates and cute pictures of Angel, which really helps me feel better while I’m at work. It’s so nice to know that my pup is being looked after in the middle of the day. I can’t thank Lisa enough for everything she’s done. If you need a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, I highly recommend her! Thank you, Lisa, for being there for us!”
3. Hanae R.
“Hanae is so responsible! She does ongoing regular sitting for my basset hound, who can be stubborn, and she is great. Always sends a terrific report card too.”
4. Rachael G.
“I cannot say enough fabulous things about Rachael. I found her while being in a pinch out of town on vacation, needing someone last minute to step in for a drop-in visit and she was immediately responsive and available. She is highly accommodating and my Cane Corso girl loves her. She has pulled through for me several times and I am so thankful for her. I cannot recommend her enough!”
5. Lauren N.
“Lauren took care of our two cats for a week over Christmas. She even managed to entice them to show themselves which they rarely do when we are gone. They were well tended and she was very flexible when our plans changed mid trip due to illness.”
6. Kelly C.
“Kelly was so great with our pup! She spent extra time with her and made sure that she was comfortable. She kept in touch with us throughout our trip, and provided thorough updates. We would love to hire her again!”
7. Emily B.
“Emily did a wonderful job taking care of my three cats. Trying to get one to eat and keeping the other two from eating his food is a challenge she took on. The cats responded to her quite well and she gave them lots of love”
8. Baining K.
“Baining is the only right answer. I was new to the app and was in need of a dog sitter. I was hesitant to even try Rover but Baining made the whole process easy. She was kind enough to arrange for a meet and greet before the days I needed help. She was very easy to talk to and highly communicative. She's awesome and I'll absolutely be reaching out in the future. Thanks Baining!”
9. Cassandra H.
“Above and beyond as always! Thank you!”
10. Alexandra C.
“Alexandra was great with our cats, Bobbie and Zoee. Our shy cat, Zoee was able to get out of her shell and felt comfortable with Alexandra that Zoee stayed on her lap and made biscuits too. Alexandra updated us daily with pictures and messages about how the day went. We were really happy having not to worry about our cats, while on vacation, as they were enjoying their time with Alexandra.”

“I can’t recommend Franz enough as a pet sitter and dog walker! Franz has a natural way with animals—kind, patient, and incredibly responsible. She has cared for my pets before, and I’ve always been impressed with her attention to detail and genuine love for animals. Whether it’s ensuring pets get plenty of exercise, keeping them safe, or just showering them with affection, Franz goes above and beyond. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for your furry friend, look no further than Franz! Your pet will be in the best hands.”

18. Irina T.
“She took care of our cat with her heart! She not only did what we instructed her to do (feeding, cleaning cat litters) but also spent time playing with him, talking to him, and cleaning the feeding area. Our cat really likes Irina and we will definitely hire her again!”
19. Meagan C.
“Meagan was amazing with our dog, Willow. She kept him safe while going out to our nearby dog park and helped our dog make doggy friends. Now, I bring Willow to the park and meet up with the friends he made ever since! In addition, she took good care of him with having him eat on time and made sure he followed his diet. She took care of Willow a few times per month and noticed she kept him active and challenged. This improved his sleeping habits as well. I am thankful for Meagan’s work.”
20. Alice Z.
“Alice is amazing! She is very attentive and communicates everything during visits which definitely helps put my mind at ease. She is great with my dog and I know he enjoyed her company while I was away. I highly recommend Alice and I will definitely book with her again!”
