“Arantxa gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of town. She goes above and beyond with updates, special care to keep their routine, and gives them so much love and attention. She genuinely treats your pets like they are her own. She is the BEST! 😊”
“Christine is the best! We were gone for 6 days, and she handled all of our dogs quirky and lovable obsessions. Also we had an unusual home and yard issue which she helped us with. House was just like we left it but, “a much happier place when we returned. A lot of dog loving going on. Jinx , our 16 yr old border collie told us she will miss her until the next time.”
“OMG! Look no farther. If you want a GREAT Rover experience then Erica is your girl. She gave updates, sent pics, helped in any way possible, communicated often and was very respectful of my home. My dogs literally looked like they took to her quickly- which they never do so this was a testament to her “vibe”. I will hire Erica any and every time I need a dog sitter and recommend you do the same! 10 ⭐️’s”
“I came home to happy content kitties and a clean home. Daria was so caring for them, sending me so many wonderful photos. I will be rebooking w her anytime I need someone. Thank you for taking such good care of my babies.”
“Elizabeth took such amazing care of my dog (and my house) while I was away! She asked thoughtful questions when getting to know me and my dog, Kiki, and had great communication with me throughout my trip. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to care for their pet!”

“Paula is the absolute best sitter we have ever used on Rover. She is so speedy with communication, attentive to our dogs, professional, and caring. Our pups were so happy to be with her and she took great care of our house as well. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone and everyone and will rebook with her in the future!”
“Woody was an absolutely excellent house/dogsitter for our resident pup and foster dog. Their pure enthusiasm and affection for our pups was apparent from our first meet-and-greet, and we felt beyond comforted and relieved to know the dogs were getting so much love and attention while we were away. Woody provided updates with just the right frequency each day, took the dogs on multiple walks a day (a HUGE plus for us), and was so diligent and thoughtful about making sure our instructions/requests were fulfilled -- even checked in with us when our foster's ears were inflamed to ask if we'd like them to help administer medication, which was super thoughtful and appreciated. House was totally clean and pristine when we returned! Completely lovely person to chat with as well, and we look forward to hosting them again next time we're headed out of town!”
“David & Lauren were great! They updated me throughout the day, took amazing care of Mona and left my place clean. That’s all I can ask for! I’ll definitely be using them again in the future. Highly recommend”
“Matt was so great to work with! He was incredibly nice and communicative, and I could tell our boy was in safe hands. He sent frequent pics and updates. Would definitely book again.”
“Lexi was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Lorrie! She was flexible with our schedule, was very attentive to Lorries’ needs and Lorrie was excited to see Lexi every day she came over. Lexi would give us daily updates of Lorries’ habits and photos of the great time they were having. We would definitely recommend Lexi to anyone and would use her again!”
“Parker watched our two dogs over the long weekend. He was very punctual and communicative. We were a little nervous leaving them with someone new, especially since one of the dogs had a recent knee injury and was on new medication. He cared for them like a pro and we had no concerns. Highly recommend!”
“Kim was great! She helped out in a pinch and took great care of my senior pup, even triple checking on medications when I said one thing and wrote a different thing down in my directions. Will definitely book again if she’ll have us!”
“Alice took care of our 2 pups and tortoise for a week while we were on vacation. She’s super communicative and sent photos and updates at least daily unprompted. Even when one of our dogs started showing signs of illness, her regular communication gave us peace of mind that she was okay and in good hands. Our pets were happy and home clean and ready for us after a long day of travel. We highly recommend Alice!”
“Noah was excellent in keeping me informed and updated while on a work trip. He also took great care of Brax while he was unexpectedly sick. Highly recommend!”
“Kate went above and beyond for my doggos this week. I can’t begin to say how pleased that I was with her attention to them and my house while she stayed here. I’m afraid to post this because I don’t want the secret to get out, and for her to get popular! Lol”
“Matt has been an excellent communicator and pet sitter. He demonstrates so much care and concern for our pets and he will be a go-to for us well into the future. We give Matt our highest recommendation”

Johnston Terrace pet parents share their Rover experiences
Isabelle was awesome!! She came in clutch to watch my three fur babies for an extended weekend just when I thought I wasn’t going to find the right person. She was so kind, flexible, and honestly was the sweetest with our babies. I would 100% recommend for short or long stays because her communication & care was amazing and so genuine. Will absolutely use her again for any future needs that pop up here in ATX 😊
Claire was wonderful with Freddie! I booked her for a stay at my house on pretty short notice. She took great care of him over the week and shared pictures of their walks and naps. He is a senior pup and she asked questions about his pills and made sure he had extra snacks in order to take them. She went above and beyond care for the house too, leaving all of the spaces cleaner probably than she found them! Would 10/10 recommend and book again!
I highly recommend Adam for any pet sitting needs. He watched our cat, Mabel, for a couple of nights while we were out of town. He sent lots of pictures, asked thoughtful questions, and most importantly won over our temperamental cat’s affection. Adam was easy to coordinate with, and I will definitely be reaching out again!
Arantxa was fantastic! She was so easy to communicate with and went above and beyond with tons of updates, photos, and videos. Best of all, I came home to a very happy pup (who is currently battling cancer so needs some extra attention) and a clean house. 10/10 I would recommend Arantxa and look forward to booking with her again!
Sarah was absolutely amazing with my dogs and staying at my house. She provided daily updates, played with the dogs tons, it was clear they loved her right away, she looked over my house, kept plants alive and I was just so comfortable and happy to have Sarah here. Could not recommend enough!!
Sarah did an outstanding job of caring for our dogs, home, plants, and fish while we were away for over two weeks! We’re so grateful for her services. We returned to happy pets and plants! From the initial communication to the very end, she was responsive and professional. She kept us updated each day while we were away. It was clear she truly loves animals and cares about the service she provides. She had a roommate/friend, Nikki, who is also on Rover assist. It was great knowing there was backup. I highly recommend Sarah for house sitting services. We will definitely contact her for our next vacation!
We feel so lucky to have found Zephyr! They took great care of our Lyla (old dog) and Mango (young cat) while we were away for family vacation. We hope to have them sit for us again and again. They are thoughtful and kind and left our place spotless and our pets happy!
Cris was great with our pups and our house! So communicative and sent updated and photos every day and always let us know that things were good. We came back to happy and healthy pups and a house that had been well kept while we were away. Would absolutely book again.
Ashlynn is the BEST!! Takes the greatest care of our doggie! She communicates frequently with lots of pics and is so great to do everything we ask of her! She treats our fur baby and our home like they are her own and we never have to worry that he will be loved on and cared for while we are away!
