“It was so nice to not have to worry about our cats when we were gone - Gretchen had it all under control, even with one of them needing medication. And the house looked even better than when we left it!”

“Carolyn treated my dog so well! She followed my notes to a T and ensured that she got lots of exercise and stimulation. She also provided frequent updates and photos. I can tell she cares deeply about animals, and I’m grateful she was able to watch my girl while I was out of town. I will definitely keep her in mind for future pet sitting needs!”

“Absolutely wonderful to have Jessica watch our dog. She was an excellent communicator and made us feel safe leaving her with him. The house was cleaner than when we left! Could not recommend more!”

“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”


“Katherine did a great job with my dogs! I really appreciate her staying at my place and keeping it nice and clean. :) Would definitely book with her again! :)”

“I had a great first experience with Penny! She was on time, sent updates and photos, left my home the way she found it, and seemed happy to spend time with my pups. Will definitely have her back.”

“Taylor was fantastic! She did a great job checking in with me and letting me know how things were going. My dog gets pretty sad when I’m gone but she did everything she could to make sure she was comfortable and well taken care of. Also my house was so clean when I got home, she’s definitely a great sitter to consider watching your dog.”

“Lilah is my go to house/dog sitter when I’m out of town! My two dogs are so well cared for, she communicates frequently, and even sends little check in photos!! So happy with Lilah’s care!”


“Robert was super accommodating for a short-notice weekend with my pups & cat. He was super communicative and took great care of them all! Would highly recommend Robert!”

“Sergio was great! He has patience and was wonderful with our puppy. He left the house just as he found it. I was pleased that he walked our puppy, and played with her regularly. Definitely would hire him again.”

“Emerson was very communicative and shared regular photos of the pets, which I enjoy. He was also very helpful with some unexpected mail deliveries and minor house issues as well.”

“Iya was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy to have worked with Iya. She did great with our dog, and it was such a relief knowing she was able to be at our house with him!”

“Olivia is a gem. She stepped in to pinch-hit after a non-Rover sitter had to leave early, and dealt with a messy house (teen sitter left quite a disaster in his wake!), untended critters, an uncertain ETA, and an unexpected medical situation with grace and care. 10 out of 10. Would recommend. Definitely hitting her up the next time I have to be away.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care our 8-month-old puppy received! From the very beginning, Carolina was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive to our pup’s needs. They took the time to learn about our puppy’s routine, preferences, and quirks, making sure she felt comfortable and well cared for while we were away. Communication was outstanding—we received regular updates, photos, and even little videos about our pup’s day, which gave us such peace of mind. Carolina was engaging with her, providing plenty of playtime, cuddles, and structured care. We came home to a happy, well-exercised, and relaxed puppy, which speaks volumes about the level of care she received. We would absolutely trust Carolina again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter. Thank you so much!”

“We didn't know Julie beforehand except for doing a brief meet-and-greet, but she stayed at our house with our small dog for a long weekend when we were traveling, and did a great job. I always worry about my little pup who is very shy and attached to my wife and me, and has a hard time warming up to other people. She was shy and probably confused at first, since this was only the second time we left her for the weekend, but she clearly warmed up to Julie after the first day. Julie was great about promptly responding to our messages asking how things were going, and sending pictures and videos. She kept our house very clean and even took out the trash and washed our bedding before we got home. I would definitely hire her again!”

Lauderdale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Olivia was fabulous! This was the first time we went through this app to have someone watch our dogs and I was nervous to be honest but Olivia eased all of my anxiety. She did frequent check ins on how the dogs were doing, when it was a hot day she asked about doing a shorter walk so the dogs didn’t get too hot and our fur babies absolutely loved her! If your dogs mean the world to you, Olivia is a great person to care for them!

Emily was an amazing care taker for my dogs. They are a little extra, like most dogs are lol. And she took good care of them and all their quirks. She communicated often, sent photos and videos and walked and cuddled them like they were her own. I recommend her for the care of your fur babies and hope to have her again in my home to stay with Otis and Myla 🐶❤️

Lillian was a great sitter for my senior dog and I would happily book her again! She was proactive, communicative, and professional. I appreciated her thorough updates on my dog and all the cute photos she sent. I could tell when I got home from my trip that my dog was well cared for and relaxed and that Lillian was attentive to him and respectful of my home. Highly recommend!

Lucy was fantastic for us. She communicated well with us before and during the stay. She seemed to follow the directions we gave her extremely well and asked questions about stuff and kept notes for herself too so she could make sure everything was followed. When we got home, the house was as clean, if not cleaner, than when we left it. We were extremely happy with her and the booking.
Cassidy was great with my Chihuahua pup. Chip requires some patience, and Cassidy did great. She also sent picture updates since we were missing Chip a lot. :) She stayed at our house, left it very clean, walked Chip daily, and gave him his allergy drops. Chip is our baby so I appreciated the attention she provided!
