“Christina was amazing!! Our little Charlie has had a tough few months since he lost his sister. It’s been quite an adjustment for him and when we would leave him, he would be so sad all the time. Christina did a drop in with him, and when we came home, he was a happy boy. She communicated very well with us, and when he met her for the first time he fell in love. I totally recommend her!!”


“Tracy was fantastic. He went above and beyond, doing drop ins for our cats and helped us out with my daughter's turtles too! Kept in contact, answered questions, overall great job.”


“This is the first time that we decided to try Rover. We needed to be out of town for two weeks and one of our dogs just had surgery requiring extra care. Edmy and her husband were amazing at helping us out. We had them come two times per day for two weeks. They showed up every time we scheduled and were so good with both our dogs. They were able to handle the care of our dog that required more attention. They took both dogs outside and stayed outside for long periods of time. Each time they checked the food and changed the water for dogs. Kept their cage clean and comfortable. We were sent pictures, informative notes, and communication was very reliable. We will definitely be using their services again and highly recommend them. Our doggies are going to miss them!”


“This is the second time I’ve booked with Lisa, I’m so thankful she could watch over my pets while I was out of town. She’s such a lifesaver! I’ll be using her again I’m sure!”


“I am so grateful for Brandi & Luis! I got updates about my cat while I was away. They went above and beyond with him. My cat doesn’t usually come out for guest, but he loved them!”


“Jennifer has watched our pets twice now and has done a phenomenal job each time! Our cat has special needs and she does great making sure he gets the medicine he needs and keeping us updated on him. Jennifer is reliable, trustworthy, and very kind. I’m so grateful we found her as a sitter!”


“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”


“Erin was great! Very communicative and responsive. She came over to meet our pups before we left on vacay and was very friendly and reliable! Would highly recommend.”


“Barbara was doing recurrent drop in visits for both of my dogs 2x a week for a few months and she went above and beyond to ensure that both of my dogs were cared for. Not only did she fulfill their basic needs, but she also went the extra mile to engage in some playtime. Barbara was communicative and punctual! I highly recommend her services!”
