We decided to hire Sarah for several future visits since we were so pleased!”


6. Ashley C.
“5 Stars: Amazing Experience with Ashley! I have had incredible experiences with Ashley through Rover. From the start, it was clear they were professional, compassionate, and genuinely cared about my dog. Wren can be a bit shy around new people, but Ashely took the time to get to know her and made her feel comfortable right away. They sent regular updates, including photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. I could tell Wren was having a great time because he was always so happy and relaxed in the photos. It was also nice that Ashley asked about her routine and any special needs, making sure everything went smoothly. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving dog sitter. I’ll definitely be using their services again in the future. Thanks again for taking such great care of my pup!”

“She was communicative and went above and beyond for my two kitties :) she was the first person I hired on here, so I’m really happy that my first experience went so well! What a relief that there are hard working people who also care about pets in STL!”


12. Angela W.
“I can't recommend Angela highly enough for pet sitting! She has taken care of my golden retriever, Koda, and my Javanese cat, Spirit, on several occasions, and the experience has always been exceptional. Angela is not only reliable but also genuinely loves animals. Koda adores her, and it's clear they share a special bond. Angela always takes the time to play with her, ensuring Koda gets plenty of exercise and attention. Spirit, who can be a bit shy, warmed up to her quickly, and I appreciate how she respects their space while still engaging with them. Angela provides regular updates and photos, giving me peace of mind while I’m away. It’s evident that both Koda and Spirit are happy and well-cared for in her presence. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch my pets again in the future. Thank you, Angela, for being such a wonderful caregiver!”


13. Jamie C.

“It’s much easier to leave my dog and cat when I know Jamie will be caring for them. His reports are always detailed and reassuring. Our pets are not easy, our dog has a lot of energy, and our cat requires twice daily medication. But for Jamie it’s no problem. When I come home I’m always greeted with calm and happy pets.”


14. Sophie W.

“Sophie went above and beyond my expectations and my dogs instantly took to her which is super rare for one of them. Highly recommend her and will refer her to friends and family.”


15. Danielle P.

“Danielle was absolutely amazing! Our boys 🐶 were beyond well taken care of. We loved our daily updates and photos. We could tell our dogs were comfortable and loved while we were gone. Highly recommend and we will definitely be a returning client!”


16. Rachael B.

“Rachael is very communicative, kind and always looking for ways to support my cat, Charlie! When Charlie was appearing stressed Rachael offered solutions and respected what Charlie needed! I always feel good leaving Charlie with her!”


17. Brooklyn W.

“Brooke! Brooke's amazing. She was reliable, responsive, and you could tell she genuinely cared for the wellbeing of my little ones. I chose Brooke because of her medical proficiency and she did not disappoint. My 16 yr old cat is diabetic and needs daily blood testing and insulin. One day when his blood level was lower than normal range, she offered to make an extra trip to retest and ensure he was doing well. She even lended her knowledge, offering advice based on his levels for my night sitter (which was Very much appreciated). Daily updates and lots of photos eased my anxiety and her calm energy made both me and my lil babes feel comfortable. I will 100% be booking Brooke in the (near) future. I'm so glad Rover exists and even more glad Brooke chose to join!”


18. Morgan H.

“We have used Morgan multiple times for our two cats and we have nothing but good things to say! We know they are always in good hands with her.”


19. Rebecca L.

“Becca did an amazing job with our puppy. It’s clear that she is a dog lover through and through. She was professional, organized, and responsive to all of our dog’s needs. She truly cared for him like he was one of her own! I’d recommend Rebecca in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”


20. Sapna B.

“Sapna was wonderful! She did a great job with our senior dog helping her up and down the steps to go to the bathroom, giving her medications, and showing her some love in the middle of the day. She kept us updated on how Shirley was doing, and made our first experience using Rover a good one!”
