1. Jillian S.
“Jillian is so wonderful with our boy Oliver - who can be a bit anxious when we leave him, and picky about who comes into his home. He and Jillian became fast friends and she made him feel comfortable almost immediately. Our dog also just has tplo surgery and Jillian is excellent at supporting him in the specific way he needs right now. We are so grateful for her loving care of our pup and would highly recommend her.”
2. Dustin W.
“Dustin took excellent care of our 8-year old, black lab and shy, 10-year old kitty. Dustin is a great communicator and paid close attention to our pets’ needs. Plus, he took wonderful photos of them! We highly recommend Dustin and look forward to using him again. Thank you, Dustin!”
3. Alanna K.
“Alanna was wonderful! She spent time to actually interact with my cat instead of just filling his food bowl and leaving. She also noticed a hazard on one of his toys that had been broken and made sure it was kept out of his reach so that he wouldn't hurt himself. She was also good about updating me on his behavior as well as notifying me of packages arriving at our home. I am so grateful I found Alanna to watch my cat! Knowing she was watching him definitely made my trip away from home more worry free!”

5. Shera D.
“Shera did an excellent job with our cat. She arrived on time, took plenty of photos (which is so appreciated when you’re out of town), and wrote up detailed reviews for both days she visited. In our meet and greet, she took notes on our cat’s needs and personality, which made me feel really secure in leaving him with her. We are definitely asking Shera to watch our kitty again. Thank you so much, Shera!”

14. Natalie A.
“Dear Rover, I’m so excited to tell you about my dogwalker-turned-friend Natalie Abbey. Since she was a former vet tech at my dog’s doctor’s office… that gave me the confidence to try her out as a dogwalker more than eight years ago. I’ve trusted her with five different animals during that time and she’s been amazing with all of them. They just love her. If she ever notices a health problem or other issue, she’s always quick to tell me and offer a potential solution. She’s made great recommendations for which clinic to take one of my fur babies to when there’s an emergency…. and she’s always spot on. She’s taken one of my animals to an appointment for me… until I could get off work, get there and finish the visit so they didn’t miss out on prompt care. She also agreed to come with me to the vet the only time I‘ve had to put a pet down. I was a wreck when Max died…. and she was right there. Since she’s coming into my house every day Natalie has also been my back up so I don’t burn it down… double checking that I’ve turned off my clothes or curling irons on days when I think I’ve forgotten. I work in TV News so the nature of a ‘regular’ schedule can change on a dime. She always adjusts and easily changes her walk times - even given the short notice I get that my schedule’s shifting. Morning show or late news… doesn’t matter. Same with vacations. I just got stuck in New York this week with a ridiculous number of delays and cancellations preventing thousands of flights from taking off as planned. She did extra feedings and walks ‘til I could make it home. Over these years I’ve watched her find love, become a mom and I’ve cheered for her every step of the way. I definitely consider her a member of my family and I’m cheering for her to become a member of the Rover family. Sonseeahray Tonsall”
15. Waymon (Mooney) G.
“Mooney was fantastic! He was very good about following our requests and instructions for care. He patiently waited for our cats to warm up to him and it was clear from his pictures in the visits they soon became best buds. Additionally, his communication with us was outstanding and above and beyond sending pictures and responding to our questions and requests. HIGHLY recommend Mooney for your pet care he is a very kind gentleman and a clear animal lover.”
16. Delaney B.
“She took great care of Sadie. Will book again”
17. Emma B.
“Melo is always happy to go to Emma’s’! Emma communicates often with daily updates & photos! Melo is always in a safe, fun & loving environment when he stays with Emma. We have used Emma for 11 days, a few days and some overnights. Never had any issues, she treats our pup like her own. Thx Emma!”
18. violet m.
“Violet was great! We have an older dog with a few special needs; she was prompt, kind, and responsible - exactly what one would want from a pet sitter. Ollie and our family would recommend Violet without hesitation.”
19. Serrah F.
“Serrah and Brian did a great job with two drop in visits with my dog while I was gone for a long day. Brian came by in advance to make sure my dog would be okay with him in the house and kept me updated on their visits. I would definitely work with them again!”
