1. Jessica F.

“Jessica is the best! She's super trustworthy and kind. My senior cat, Watson, fell in love with her. Jessica wrote great reports about her visit each time she came & she took excellent care of him & kept me posted with photos. When I returned home from my trip, Watson was relaxed and content which made me so relieved. I recommend Jessica!”

4. Kelsey S.

“Kelsey is literally the best ever! I have a timid Great Dane and and Boxer Mastiff, and they love her and get so excited when I ask or tell them Kelsey’s coming today! I recently was im a bind traveling for work and Kelsey has been a lifesaver. She literally goes above and beyond without asking and I look forward to the Rover reports! Can’t say enough great things about her and definitely trust Kelsey with my furr babies.”


5. Kristen M.

“Kristen is fantastic!!! She took great care of two cats and handled kitty medication with no problem. Kristen sends detailed Rover cards (and lots of photos!) which I loved for the peace of mind. ☺️ It was clear our cats were happy and in great hands while we were gone. Will definitely be booking with her again!!”

7. Brianna J.

“First time using the app and overall very impressed with how it all works and also with my sitter Brianna. She did such a great job and I would highly recommend. It was nice to get photo updates also. 10/10 recommend”


8. Lauren E.

“Lauren was amazing! She took my Lucy on a nice long walk, played with her in our back yard and game her lots of attention. Made sure she had food and water and gave her a bone I left for her before she left. She also sent lots of pictures which made being away from her much easier!”


9. Gina G.

“Gina was AMAZING! She watched our cats over the blizzard Christmas weekend, and went out of her way to make sure our boys were still very well taken care of even despite difficult travel, etc. She somehow managed to figure out (without us telling her) that our one cat loved bubbles, and that made us so happy to know she tried different toys and put effort into her time with them. Because travel was delayed and difficult, she kept a very open line of communication and was very quick to respond to our worries about the storm, made sure we still had heat, etc. Can't recommend her enough!”


10. Alexa A.

“Alexa is amazing! She took wonderful care of my three cats. She even got my non- friendly kitty to love on her! I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”


11. Sara L.

“Sara! You were amazing with our pup! We had a last minute buffalo trip and she showed up and took care of our billy! She was informative and up to date. We recommend Sara for everyone!! Will be contacting her for our next Buffalo trip!”


12. Caitlin C.

“It was so reassuring to know my dog was in such good hands while I was away! Caitlin gave detailed daily updates and was flexible around some unexpected tummy trouble. I highly recommend working with Caitlin!”


13. Ariana B.

“Ariana took care of our cat for a week while we were away. Travelling is always a bit stressful cause our cat is a bit anxious to be alone. Ariana has been absolutely kind and professional. The communication was excellent, a lot of pictures and messages kept me posted everyday. I truly appreciated it. Ariana makes sure to give cuddles, play, and is also caring for the place to be clean. We will call her again, for sure! 😊 Thank you for everything.”


14. Shannon D.

“Shannon is excellent! I feel comfortable going away knowing my fur baby is being well taken care of. Shannon put me at ease with sending updates and pictures throughout the time I was away. I highly recommend Shannon and I hope she is available in the future!”


15. Karlyn M.

“An amazing sitter! She went above and beyond for us. So thankful for her and being able to drop in last minute for us. I would recommend to anyone. She handled our crazy pups so well.”


16. Lana S.

“It was a wonderful experience to have Lana look over our three cats. She very quickly became friends with all three even two that are normally very reserved with new people. She went above and beyond with live updates, photos and videos. Made me feel totally happy that the fellas were in good hands while we were away. Would ? recommend Lana to anyone needing Roger services. I totally love this app/service and how it can connect you with people like Lana who are so good with our furry friends. ?”


17. Brie O.
“Brie is the only person I would ever trust with our dog. She has watched our 3 year old rescue pittie numerous times and has loved her and cared for her as if she were her own. Our girl is a shy and timid rescue dog, and Brie handles her with the extra bit of reassurance that our dog needs with other people. Our dog absolutely adores her and I think sometimes loves her more than she loves us (haha). Earlier this year I gave birth to our daughter and Brie watched our dog the entire time I was in the hospital. It was one less thing I had to worry about, knowing my dog was well loved and taken care of. If you hire Brie to watch your dog, rest assured she will stop at nothing to make sure he/she has the absolute best care possible.”


18. Ciara H.


“Ciara has been watching our Mako, a 8 week old yellow lab and we could not recommend her and her daughter more highly. She asks us permission to do anything with our puppy before she does it if we haven’t already mentioned it to her. She is always on time and early for the drop in visits. She not only plays,feeds,walks and takes him to the bathroom but also taught him how to lay down! She goes above and beyond on each visit. We could not be more happy and recommend her any higher to anyone. She is also extremely flexible and understanding with our changing schedule and does anything she can to meet our needs.”


19. Alex J.
About: I've owned and taken care of animals my whole life. I am a dog lover and I have been able to provide assistance and care for many of my friends, family and neighbors throughout my life. I am able to provide a safe, stable and healthy environment for pet care that would allow both you and your furry loved ones comfort and security. I work a part-time job with flexible hours, allowing me to meet pet care needs on time. I am a very organized and reliable person as long as we schedule!
