“Erin, Chris and family took such great care of our Sadie when we were out of state for the holiday! They welcomed her as if she was part of the family! Our girl had so much fun playing with their dog in the backyard and even a couple of other dogs that were visiting at the same time. We appreciate all the love they provided and we will without question be back again soon! 😍”
“Jessica took care of my dog Iommi for a long weekend while I traveled out of state for my brother's wedding. It was my first time leaving Iommi and Jessica was the perfect person to leave her with. I was admittedly anxious about leaving Iommi for the first time, but as soon as I arrived the morning of drop-off Jessica made me feel 100% at ease. She took care of Iommi like she was her own and I know Iommi had a great time staying with Jessica and her family and playing with her dog Rip. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for care for their pet! I will definitely be booking with Jessica again!”
“Meagan was amazing. She sent us pictures daily and made sure we knew right away when Iris injured herself. Iris is a high energy GSP so we were not surprised but Meagen kept an eye on her injury and updated us often as she healed. Iris loved her time spent with Meagen and we would use her again.”
“Kayla was absolutely amazing! Our boy seemed very happy and comfortable with her, which brought us a great amount of ease. She sent daily pictures and updates which was lovely. We will definitely be using her again!!”
“They took great care of our pup! We loved receiving the photo updates and it was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well loved the whole time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their pet.”
“Jessica is absolutely the best! She took care of our puppy for a week when we went on vacation. She sent multiple pictures/updates throughout the day. She spends a lot of time playing/cuddling with your dog. Jessica somehow managed to take our puppy on walks, even when it was cold and snowy. When we picked up our puppy after 7 nights, he looked super happy and well taken care of. So grateful to have Jessica to take care of our fur baby when we are away. She is the BEST!!”
“My pup Tucker had a great time with Stephanie & Shawn! They provided a good amount of updates and Tucker was worn out when he got back home! Will definitely stay in the future!”
“Lucia was the best pet sitter for our kitty cat Sai. She went above and beyond and picked him up and dropped him off. She sent pics often and I was able to relax knowing he was in great hands. Lucia also just has a kind and friendly personality. I highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs. I am very happy with our experience.”
“I could not be more happy with my puppy”s stay with Cliff. He took my puppy at the last minute and after talking with him on the phone for a few minutes I had a good sense that he would be great. My puppy was taken multiple times a day to run in the dog park next to his apartment. Cliff had an organized, well thought out plan for how he cared for my puppy. He asks good questions and communicates very well, so I felt good leaving my puppy with him for a few days.”
“Cory took such great care of Bruce! He sent pictures and responded to messages quickly, and Bruce came home happy and exhausted. We are so appreciative of the great care Bruce received with Cory and will definitely come back!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was pleased with Jessica’s quick response time and enthusiasm to meet and care for Blanca. The process was easy and drop off went smoothly. Jessica’s dog was in a kennel when we arrived to make drop off less stressful for both dogs. The pups were introduced after we left to get their sniffing done on neutral territory (on a walk out front). We received photos and updates during our whole time away and knew Blanca was happy and safe. We would be happy to use Jessica again in the future!”
“This was an amazing choice for us and we will absolutely reach out again if we need a dog sitter. The dogs clearly had a great time and I'm so glad Hazel was around so they had an extra pal to hangout with. Communicating was easy and we felt well updated (and we loved the photos of the doggos)”
“Cynthia took great care of Brooks for a weekend stay. Her home and big backyard were perfect for him, and she kept us updated with photos and quick responses, which made us feel really comfortable. He clearly felt right at home — he almost didn’t want to leave! Friendly, flexible, and easy to work with. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Elizabeth is very sweet and knowledgeable about dog behavior. We were welcomed by her and her two pups on leash, and the interaction worked well! She sent many photos and video updates. Elizabeth even brushed him before I picked him up.”
“Cassandra was very understanding and accommodating of our Doggo's anxiousness. She sent us great photos of his time with her and he seemed relaxed and content. Love to work with her again!”
“The family took very good care of LouCee I got daily pictures and they were very responsive . For my 1st time using Rover and a overnight sitter , it was perfect situation .”

Karina is a wonderful pet sitter, she sent us pictures and a video of our Coco while pet sitting here. Coco seemed to enjoy the time with her and even though Coco and her cat Sylvia didn't get along, everything went just fine, Karina manage to make it work. I would definitely book with her next time again!!
We continue to ask Alexandra to care for our pup every time we go out of town. This time, our dog hurt his leg just before we left and she right away reassured us she could manage whatever he needed. She is always responsive and takes great care of Auggie. We are grateful for the peace of mind!
Lexi did an outstanding job with my dog and cat! They immediately warmed up to her and had the best stay. Lexi kept me updated with pictures and videos and gave me great peace of mind while out of town. She did a phenomenal job and my fur babies were so calm and content when they came back home. I could tell they had been treated like VIP! Will definitely reach out to Lexi again. She is so caring and awesome. So lucky we found her! 🙏
Joseph was very accomodating as this was a last minute reservation. My babies seemed to be at ease there, enjoyed the backyard, etc. Joseph sent pics to us as well so we could see how well they were acclimating to his home. Would highly recommend and will definitely reach out to Joseph the next time we are needing care for the pups when we are out of town.
