“We’re so happy we found Elizabeth! Both our dog and our cat trusted her right away, and when we came back from our trip, they were both calm and relaxed. It gave us so much peace of mind to know they had company while we were away. She stayed at our home, everything was great with the house too, and we absolutely recommend her 🙌🏻”
“Above and beyond! Sent funny pics every day and played with him a bunch. Has a big dog at home too, so was super comfortable with my energetic boy. Thank you lots!”
“We have used Cheryl a number of times for in-home stays for our two elderly dogs and young cat. She is an excellent care taker for all of them. She is at the house full- time and sends us pictures every day. Our dogs love her! I highly recommend her and she is our go-to person whenever we travel. She is extremely responsible and takes her job very seriously.”

“Sarah was amazing! She housesat with my pup and my cat while I was out of town and I knew they were in such good hands the whole time! My pup can be nervous when first meeting new people and Sarah was so patient and sweet letting Remy warm to her in her own time showing before showing off her sassy silly self. My cat Sherlock has diabetes and Sarah did an excellent job giving him his insulin. She was super communicative throughout the stay and sent pictures of my little guys.”
“Ian was such a wonderful dog sitter for our pup. He hit it off with Leo during the meet and greet, which is impressive because Leo is often a bit standoffish with new people. Ian followed the care plan we put together for him and was communicative with questions and needs. He sent pictures nearly every day so we knew Leo was well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Miranda stayed at our home for three days and took great care of our Maltipoo. Communication was easy, and we came home to a happy dog and a spotless house. Would definitely book again”
“Alexus was fantastic with Stella, very good with communication, and I felt so comfortable knowing someone responsible and enthusiastic was taking care of my sweet girl while I was away. Already booking her again for the next time I’m out of town!”
“This was the first time using this service for me. I was very apprehensive and worried about leaving my dogs. I have a 13 yr old senior who has hind leg issues and is slow to get around. I was so worried he wouldn’t do well if I left him. I also have a high energy, excessive barking dog. She wears a humane bark collar but I was worried it wouldn’t work or she’d still be super hyper on it. Jamie reassured me that it was working great and there were no issues. Jamie gave me text and picture updates and completely alleviated my fears and worries. She takes great care and is very compassionate with the animals and the owners. I would recommend her to everyone and definitely hire her again.”
“Arissa was wonderful to work with! Our pup wasn’t so sure about having us gone initially but Arissa was super patient and kind. They ended up having a great time cuddling and playing. We’d definitely rebook with her!”
“Laura is so sweet and did such a great job taking care of my pups. She updated me daily and sent me pictures of them while I was gone. Highly recommend!!”

Lower Garden District pet parents share their Rover experiences
Our little dog loved being with Katrina!! She was stellar!! Katrina was so kind and gentle with her and even brought her out and about town since our little dog is very social and thrives on going out. We could not have asked for a better sitter! We enjoyed getting all the superior updates with pics and videos whilst away. Our home was also well respected and very clean and tidy upon our return home while being away for 5 days. Without a doubt, we would recommend Katrina for all your pet care needs!!! A plus, plus!!!!
Jacob was great with our dog! He handled giving him twice daily insulin injections like a pro, was communicative, and sent us regular photos of a very happy pup. We got home to a clean house and a healthy, relaxed dog. We will absolutely use Jacob again as a sitter!
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!
Laura is a shining star from above that has graced us with her lovely presence to tend to our 20 year old pup’s needs. We breathe a serene sigh of relief knowing Laura will be in our home attending to our dogs wants/needs. She is very delicate towards our pup and treats our home with the utmost care. After getting to know her, we feel like she is a dear friend. We rely on her to take care of our number one dog in our lives. She is just stellar.
Heather was an absolutely amazing sitter for our cat Lizzie. Lizzie has not had many sitters and she usually takes a while to warm up to new people but she was cuddling immediately because Heather has great energy and takes such good care of your pet. She's kind and caring, made sure to update us at every step along the way, took great pictures, and really showed our girl the kind of love and attention that all pets need when you're away! Everything was super easy and we would HIGHLY recommend Heather.
Brittany went above above above and beyond caring for my Juno! She took Juno on field trips, kept Juno engaged and close by her. She brought Juno on numerous fun walks to Audubon Park. She slept with Juno and bathed her and brushed her. She gave Juno all. of her medication for a rash. Juno just absolutely loved Brittany and I could tell Brittany really loved Juno. Brittany was amazing and I would highly recommend Brittany to other dog/pet owners. Juno is everything to me and I am so grateful to have found Brittany to stay in our home with my sweet Juno.
Madelyne did a wonderful job of caring for our home and cats. She went above and beyond the call of duty by taking extra measures to save some of our newly planted flowers. She also washed and folded the sheets and towels we used, something we very much appreciate. Thank you, Madelyne, for doing such a great job!
