“Maria was very helpful and accommodating. She was a pleasure to work with. I was worried because this was the first time I had left my dog with someone he did not know. But, I could tell by photos and his behavior when I picked him up that he had been well cared for.”
“Yvonne was great! Taco had a good time and came home very happy. Yvonne sent pics throughout the weekend and stayed in touch. Would definitely recommend and will be sending Taco there again in the future!”

“Bianca was a wonderful sitter. I knew the moment I met her that my pooch was in good hands which put me at ease. My dog takes time to warm up to people but he was well acquainted with Bianca so quickly. She provided frequent updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her in photos. When I picked my dog up he was crying when she left and was searching for her. I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet.”

“Christopher sent us plenty of photos and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel really comfortable and reassured. He took really good care of our dog, and our dog was super happy when we got back. This was our first time using Rover, and it turned out to be a great experience. We’d definitely recommend Christopher!”

“Justin and Jeremy were amazing! They took great care of Atlas and were super flexible with the dates and times because I had to extend the stay last minute. I got photos and videos through the stay and I could see that she was enjoying herself. Highly recommend!”


“Stacy and Jeff are our first Rover sitters and we couldn't have asked for a better family to take care of our senior puppy. She was so well cared for (and spoiled!). They carried her up and down stairs, let her sleep in her room, took her outside many times a day, and she had the added bonus of having two little kids love on her while she was there. It made our travels so much less stressful to know she was in such great hands. <3”

“Benji is very comfortable with this sitter. He has been there several times and will continue in future. Family has great set-up, very friendly and flexible. Highly recommend.”

“Kamille gave our pup a loving home for the week and we are so grateful. The videos she sent us ware the whole so sweet and made us feel so relaxed that he was taken care of. She is also incredibly knowledgeable on collapsing dog cages! Will run to request dog sitting from her and her family in the future!”

“I had a two-night trip out of state and it was the first time I had no family or friends available to watch my 2-year-old corgi, Athena. I was really nervous and sad to leave her with someone new but Gabriela's willingness to do a meet-and-greet and her prompt communication and seeing Athena not even look back at me when she went to stay with Gabriela (despite breaking my heart) made me as comfortable as I could be with the idea. I knew Gabriela made Athena feel loved and comfortable and safe (which eased my fears) when I saw several smiling pictures per day of my fur baby and Gabriela. I was positive I made the right --and best-- decision when I picked Athena up today and my sweet girl was all smiles. Gabriela said they had a great weekend and graciously laughed it off when she said --as I predicted--that Athena's only thing the whole weekend was when she barked at all the cleaning products as Gabriela cleaned her apartment. I highly recommend talking to Gabriela if you're looking for someone to love and care for your fur babies as if they were her own.”

“Elena was diligent in sending daily updates on how Ollie was doing throughout his stay in her home. She was flexible when I needed to alter the dates booked. Ollie's needs were met and his demeanor showed me that he was comfortable with her and her home. I would be happy to have her care for Ollie again in the future.”

“Thomas was an absolutely amazing and wonderful sitter for our little pup. We’re also so worried about leaving her with a sitter because she suffers from horrible anxiety and is so fearful of a lot of things (new people included), but from all the pictures that Thomas had sent us, it seemed like our little pup was able to quickly make a home and feel at peace for the duration of the sit. Besides being a good sitter for our fearful pup, Thomas was also very flexible and responsive. We had booked him so last minute, and we couldn’t get home in time due to the recent snow storm. As anxious as we were about these problems, Thomas was great and alleviated a lot of our stress by accepting and kindly taking care of our pup for even longer than intended. Highly recommend! And we hope to book him again sometime in the future!”

“Brendan did an outstanding job taking care of my two little dogs. He was very communicative, send great pics every day, and my dogs greatly enjoyed snuggling and following him around, haha. He went above and beyond getting to know about each dog’s personality and routine to make them feel comfortable. Highest possible recommendation!”

“Liya & her family provide exceptional service to my dog. Very attentive, caring and always goes above and beyond. She has been flexible with time, changed plans etc. As someone who is very particular, I feel at peace leaving Chloe in her care. Highly recommended!”

“Angie is outstanding! She deserves more than five stars! Our fur babies were well taken care of, pampered and loved. With Angie it’s a “ family affair”. Hubby and kids along with her provide top notch care. She provided great updates, videos, pictures and dialogue. So happy we have found her. Needless to say Beignet and Brie can’t wait to return. They are already missing their new doggie friends and of course the chickens.”

“We all had such a good experience with Erin! Great communication, loved the pictures and Sherman had such a good time on their walks and outings. Highly recommend. Thank you so much, Erin!”

“What a great experience having Diana watch Stevie.From the minute we met at a meet & greet in her home, I knew Stevie would be in caring, trustworthy hands. My dog is very anxious and is usually scared of new people but she warmed up to Diana as soon as she met her. You can tell that Diana loves dogs (her own pup is adorable) and treated Stevie like she was her own. Diana wanted to know all about my dog’s schedule, likes and dislikes and personality. She was responsive, communicative, and sent daily updates and pictures so I knew my dog was comfortable and having a wonderful time. You could tell how much love Stevie was getting and I would absolutely book Diana again. I was able to have a relaxing trip knowing Stevie was happy and relaxed.”

“Thanks for taking such good care of our Romeo! He loved your home so much that he didn't want to leave! Thanks for sending all the adorable photos and updates, too. I hated to be away from our little fur ball, but at least had the piece of mind that he was living the good life in your home. ❤️”

“What’ a wonderful experience. Oreo had a great time and was treated like a prince. Not sure he wanted to come home!! :) really appreciated all the communication and care. Will definitely rebook in the future.”

“My active pug had a great stay with Colleen and family. I knew he was in great hands and they kept in touch with pics of Vinny and their lab Lily. Lucky to have found them!”

“We have used Austin and Majid on multiple occasions (and already have them booked for our next stay.) Francis is always so happy when he recognizes that we are on their street. They take great care of him and are glad to have a safe place for him to be when we are away.”

Kensington pet parents share their Rover experiences
Bianca was a wonderful sitter. I knew the moment I met her that my pooch was in good hands which put me at ease. My dog takes time to warm up to people but he was well acquainted with Bianca so quickly. She provided frequent updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her in photos. When I picked my dog up he was crying when she left and was searching for her. I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet.

Adam and Megan took great care of our dog! They were so communicative and sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates. Our flight was delayed and they were so flexible and patient! Our dog gets very sad when we leave and he looked incredibly happy the whole weekend with Megan and Adam!

Dami took wonderful care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. When my cat threw up unexpectedly, Dami called me right away to let me know and make sure I was informed about how she was doing. Dami is attentive, responsible, and clearly cares deeply about the animals she looks after. I felt completely comfortable knowing my cat was in her care, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pet. I would absolutely book with Dami again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter or dog walker.
I want to share my recent experience with Valeria, who looked after Mr. Lucian, my Bengal cat, while I was away in Colorado. Although Mr. Lucian can get a bit anxious when he's not at home, Valeria sent me regular photos that showed that he settled in beautifully under her care. Valeria is a wonderful communicator and punctual when it came to picking up and dropping Mr. Lucian—a real life saver for someone with a busy schedule like mine. Valeria’s genuine enjoyment of spending time with animals, especially cats in my case, really comes through. Her attention to detail and warmth made me feel confident that Mr. Lucian was in good hands. I will definitely reach out to Valeria first for any future pet-sitting needs, and I highly recommend you consider doing the same.

I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with Samantha for the two weeks I was away. She made the whole experience personal by sending pics and videos every day, which gave me real peace of mind. I was happy with everything and would definitely recommend her. I would most definitely leave my dog with her again. 🙂🐶🐕🎀

We couldn't be happier with Felisa! This was Sassy's first stay with her, and she was comfortable from the moment they met — which says everything about Felisa's calm, welcoming energy with dogs. Felisa sent pictures every day, so we always knew Sassy was happy and well cared for. Seeing her on shady walks surrounded by green space was such a relief. Sassy looked relaxed and at home the entire time. We'll absolutely be booking with Felisa again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter
Stacy, Jeff and their kiddos welcomed Francis into their home and made him feel at ease. They were excellent communicators and took great care of Francis. We were thrilled to have Francis stay in such a loving home. We will definitely use them again when we need care. Thank you!
