1. Christian M.
“Very professional, polite, and friendly. My animals all seemed happy when we got back from our vacay so I believe they were well cared for when we were gone. Christian was very responsive to inquiries and was helpful in bringing in packages that were delivered when we were gone. Highly recommend.”
2. Ashley R.
“Actually seem to get along, just great with my somewhat shy and reluctant cat. She patiently waited for him to come to her over a five day. And by the end they were kissing. The house was clean as I had left it and she even straightened her bed. I feel she’s responsible and I will be home in her again I am sure.”
3. Chris G.
“Chris did a wonderful job sitting for our sweet, nervous Standard. He was so patient and kind with her as this was the first time she’s been left her with others. He provided constant communication/feedback and took some of the best photos I have, to date, of my Pup. My home was left in perfect order and Birdie was completely comfortable upon my return. Would recommend Chris to any of my friends.”
4. Rose T.
“Rose was incredible -- the animals LOVED her and even though our travel was delayed, Rose was highly accommodating. Appreciate the high communication and pics each day ☺️”
5. Allie M.
“Allie was amazing! She stayed at our apartment for a whole week and was extremely professional. She took wonderful care of our two boys while we were on vacation and was very communicative through out the whole week. We will definitely be using her services again!”
6. Kaetlynd V.
“Kaetlynd was always responsive to my phone calls and text messages, before and during her sit at my home. I could tell from the photos she sent to me over the days that I was away that my precious schnauzer was having a good time with her. Previous to Kaetlynd's stay at my home and during our meet-and-greet, I observed that my dog liked Kaetlynd a lot right away. In addition, Kaetlynd left my home in good order--she even washed the sheets and towels she used despite the fact that I told her not to bother--and she was flexible when my return date changed to earlier and my arrival time changed to later. I would be 100% comfortable having Kaetlynd stay at my home again. ????”
7. Kathleen H.
“As always, Katy was excellent to our little girl. Katy sends regular updates, videos and photos, which are very much appreciated, and is a caring person. We feel safe leaving Rosie in her care!”
8. Ashley R.
“Ashley was an amazing caregiver to my 2 elderly cats. She administered medication to both cats and cared for them precisely as I had requested down to the last detail. She sent regular photos to keep me in touch with my fur babies. She also took wonderful care of my home while my guy and I were out of town. It was great to come back to 2 calm well cared for cats and a totally orderly home. I can't say enough about Ashley and will definitely use her again to care for my animals.”
9. Ashlee B.
“Highly recommend Ashlee. She is very good to my dogs and they love her too. Ashlee is very communicative and always lets me know when she’s coming and going and how the dogs are doing while I’m gone. I appreciate her taking care of my dogs and my home.”
10. Zachary A.
“Zak was great with our 2 dogs and 2 cats. He was thorough, professional, and respectful of our home. He sent lots of cute pics and I know the fur babies got lots of love. Thanks for everything Zak!”
11. nadia B.
“I've known Nadia for about 4 years. She currently has a rescue dog and a parrot. I call her the 'dog whisperer'. I've never seen anyone as good with animals as she is. She has gone swimming with the dolphins and she volunteers working with horses. She is truly amazing. She really understands animals. She needs to work with animals....its her calling....she would be quite an asset to your organization.”
12. Vanessa A.
“Vanessa was a great sitter for our two Dalmatians! She was very communicative and sent us lots of pictures which really put us at ease as this was our first time ever having a sitter for the boys! 10/10 would recommend her ❤️”
13. Alicia K.
“Alicia took amazing care of my pets and home. She is very professional, a great communicator while away with multiple photos, and when I came home, everything was clean and neat with calm, happy babies! I highly recommend Alicia - she is the best pet sitter that I have met on Rover!”
14. Kayla A.
“Finding Kayla was nothing short of a miracle for my husband and I. We were going on the longest trip we had taken away from our baby boy and had just loved to a new area, so we were nervous about using a new sitter. We also used the housesitting option for the first time since we wanted someone to be with our pup for longer periods of time due to us being away for a while. Kayla sent daily updates and photos, was extremely responsive, was very professional, super sweet and extremely flexible. She asked us of our communication preferences to make sure we received routine updates and photos in the way we wanted to receive them. She even helped us with some other issues that arose that we’re unrelated to her duties as a dog sitter. Additionally, her knowledge and experience working in the veterinary field helped ease our comfort with our administering multiple medications and supplements for our aging pup. She was truly a pleasure to work with and I would 1,000,000% book her again. I only hesitate writing this review because this could make her more popular on Rover and less available for future bookings, but I just had to leave a glowing review of her quality of care and professionalism. Kayla, thank you for taking the best care of our pup while we were away. We are so grateful for you!”
15. Natasha R.
“Natasha did a nice job. She took the time to come over to my house and meet Loki and have a discussion. She wasn’t in a hurry. I knew Loki would be in good hands, safe and given attention while I was gone.”
16. Katie G.
“This was my first time using Rover and Katie did a wonderful job! Not only was she flexible and on time, she was absolutely great and patient with my ultra difficult chihuahua. Most people would have walked out but Katie assured me that he will be okay and he did fine! I would definitely have her house sit my dog in the future! Thank you Katie!!”
17. Gwendolyn R.
“Gwen does a great job each time she cares for our dogs. We have hired her to walk, feed and bathe them and each time she exceeds our expectations. Our sweet girls love spending time with her when we go out of town. We are confident that they are in good hands whenever we leave town.”
18. Edith M.
“Edith has a truly remarkable gift with animals. Her patience, kindness, and gentle touch have a profound impact on even the most anxious or frightened creatures. I've had the pleasure of witnessing Edith interact with my own pets, and her ability to calm and soothe them is nothing short of astonishing. Her understanding of animal behavior and body language is impressive, and she knows exactly how to tailor her approach to each individual's needs. Edith's passion for animal welfare is evident in everything she does. She's knowledgeable, compassionate, and always puts the needs of the animals first. Whether it's caring for a frightened kitten or walking a rambunctious dog, Edith handles each situation with grace and professionalism. I wholeheartedly recommend Edith to anyone seeking exceptional animal care. Your furry friends will be in the best possible hands.”
19. Rebecca A.
“Rebecca is AMAZING! I was very nervous to leave our pup and home to someone else, but Rebecca's calm and in-control attitude helped us feel assured. While we were gone, Rebecca stayed in touch multiple times a day with photo and text updates about our dog. And bonus: our house looked like the day we left it. Rebecca is great at listening to your concerns and acting accordingly. Highly recommend! Thanks Rebecca!”
20. Irene L.
“Irene was great in caring for our dogs last minute. She had great communication and followed all instructions perfectly. We will definitely look to use her again in the future.”
