“Chloe did a wonderful job handling my crew of 4! She sent lots of updates with pictures & communicated well throughout her stay. I returned to happy pets & a tidy home. My lil family will surely be happy to see her again!”

“THIS IS BIG! ROCCO LOVES CAITLIN :D! We threw EVERY spoiled little bratdog curveball at Caitlin and she delivered excellent poochy care with each loving pet, hug and cookie! (Truly, Schnoz was likely a cat in a previous life and is disgusted by all humans' inadequacies.) Caitlin spent three (probably long days) in our home with our moody little knucklehead .. and with us popping in and out. We were all a handful! Caitlin was prompt, caring, detail-oriented and devoted to Rocco having a bestest time ever while Mom & Dad were gallivanting around Funk Fest without him. (He even got to stop at his beloved Golden Lantern where all of the bartenders have finally earned their keys to his heart.) Our happiest moment was when Caitlyn sent over a picture of Rocco ALLOWING her to snuggle him. NO SMALL FEAT! Caitlin, you're a GODDESS, and we're thrilled to have found you! (Rocco is, too, even though he'll never admit it.) See you soon! :D”

Being able to care for pets brings me so much joy, and knowing they’re happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away means everything to me.

“Caroline was the consummate professional sitter for our recent vacation. I highly recommend her services. Caroline took great care of our pups in our home while we were gone, sending numerous pictures each day to let us know how they were doing. We could tell by their posture and demeanor they were happy and not stressed … which was our concern with leaving them with someone “new.” Caroline love the doggos and most importantly, they loved her! Additionally, Caroline took immaculate care of our home and had our place looking pristine upon our arrival home. I cannot be more pleased with her services! Use her!!! You won’t be disappointed!”

“Jaimie was spectacular. Easy to contact, super sweet with our pup. We felt really comfortable leaving our baby with Jaimie and she knows the area and had lots of great suggestions. Highly recommend Jaimie to anyone who needs animal sitting when in New Orleans! Thanks Jaimie!”


“Cheryl is amazing and takes excellent care of my furry children! She deserves ten out of five stars, and I would highly recommend booking any and all services with her.”

“Abby is a lifesaver! I had an unexpected out of town trip that bumped into another trip for which I had already booked another sitter. Abby came to meet my pets within a few hours of my request and was flexible with my unknown travel plans. She got along great with my dogs and wasn't afraid to take on my almost 17 year old Beagle mix who can be a lot of work. Abby also washed the linens on the bed so everything was ready to go for the next sitter to come in. She made a stressful, last minute trip a whole lot easier and sent plenty of pics of my pouting Yorkie and grandma Beagle.”
“Elizabeth stayed at our house to pet sit for our senior kitty. Elizabeth gave picture updates and was communicative the entire time while we were away. When we arrived, our kitty had clearly gotten tons of care and attention! The house was also kept clean and tidy just like when we left. Will definitely be using Elizabeth on future trips!”

“She was great!! My cat had so much fun with her. I’m new to this app and having someone house sit but i had no worry with her. She went above and beyond and i will definitely use her again”

“Dex was great with our kitten! He’s highly social and we didn’t want to leave him alone with only daily drop-ins so Dex stayed the night and house sat for us. They did an amazing job and kept us updated with pictures and texts daily. Will definitely re-hire Dex in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for pet care.”

“Jared was such a perfect fit for what I needed. My dogs were carefully taken care of, and very well entertained by him. He kept me in the know of anything with the pups and was very attentive to one that needs a little extra for her anxiety. I would highly recommend Jared to anyone, I will for sure be a repeat!”

“Emily was absolutely amazing! She arrived on time, sent photos, asked questions when she noticed Charlee wasn't going potty as usual and communicated consistently and with details! Having just moved to the area, I was nervous with a new sitter, but after this first experience with Emily, I will definitely choose her as my first choice for furbaby care, and hope that she is available! Thank you, Emily!! :))”

“Mackenzie was amazing with my 2 anxious Shiba Inus. She took her time to get to know them and they loved here. Mackenzie was communicative and did exactly what she said she would. I would definitely recommend booking her for your pets!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lower 9th Ward
She has watched my dog several times now - from occasional pop ins for feeds and pets to doing overnights while I am working out of state. I trust her with not only my sweet fur nugget but also my home while away. She's trustworthy and friendly and communicates with images during her appointments. Highly recommend.

Chloe was an excellent house sitter and took wonderful care of both our home and our dog while we were away. She was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire stay. She sent daily photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our pup was happy and well cared for. We returned to a clean home and a happy dog, and it was clear that Chloe treated both with care and respect. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter.

Khalifa was absolutely amazing. She was very understanding and accommodating—she helped a ton when I made some scheduling and booking mistakes (don’t be like me). Most importantly, she made our pup feel at home at gave him lots of love. She’s an excellent caretaker. 100% recommend.

Caroline was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Jasper, Max, and Stella and gave us total peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, we came home to a house that was even cleaner than when we left it. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone!

Sarah is amazing… She walked in and could read the personalities of each one of our dogs within one minute of meeting them. She is clearly an animal lover and will take great care of your home and your pets. One of the best we’ve ever had! Thank you so much Sarah for watching our pups!!
John was very communicative and took great care of my two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Photos or videos each day helped me feel less sad while away. Also, he watered my plants & took great are of my home. I highly recommend John & will call upon him in the future.

We have been so happy with our Rover sitters and Chandra is fantastic. We know how much she loves sitting for our sweet old girl Ahi. Having an ageing dog is worrisome when having to leave them but we know she’s in great hands with Chandra. From our first meeting she seemed very responsible confident sitting for a larger older dog and has managed her medications and new changes so well. That is huge for us and we will continue to book her again!
