“Laney did a super great job taking care of our 6 dogs for 4 days. We scheduled 3 drop in visits a day for 4 days. She checked in on time and sent her report with several pictures after each visit. This is the first time I have ever left my babies in the care of anyone outside of family, and to say I have anxiety leaving doing so is an understatement. I am thankful to have found just the right person on Rover! I will defuse Laney again and highly recommend the Rover experience!”

10. Susan C.
“Susan is hands down the BEST pet setter we’ve ever had!!! We had a bit of an ant problem while we were out of town for the weekend—Susan offered to pick us up some ant baits from Home Depot since she was planning on going the next day anyways (this was on my to-do list, but I didn’t have time to get them before we left for our trip, so I was so stoked to see her kind offer in my messages!) Not only did she buy us ant baits, but she carefully + creatively placed them around our kitchen, making sure our cat wouldn’t be able to reach them. Thank you, Susan!”
11. Hallie A.
“Hallie visited Charly exactly when she said she would. I received emails and photos of Charly's food bowls so my mind was at easy. No photos of the puss because Charly is very shy around people she doesn't know, so that was not unexpected. I am very happy how this experience turned out.”
