“Granola trusts and likes Hayley. He looks forward to his walk with her. I like how Hayley takes a moment to chat and let me know how he did after the walk. I take comfort in knowing that she is conscientious and responsible. She will be walking him for the third time this Saturday. I am glad I found her on Rover and look forward to continuing to work with her.”

6. Janey U.
“I am delighted to provide this testimonial for my wife, Janey, as she applies to be a pet sitter on Rover.com. Over the 13 years we've been together, I have witnessed firsthand her exceptional love for animals and her unwavering commitment to their care. Janey is one of the most trustworthy individuals I have ever known. Her integrity is unmatched, and she consistently upholds the highest ethical standards in everything she does. Her meticulous nature ensures that she follows directions precisely and carefully, making her a reliable and dependable caregiver for any pet. For over a decade, Janey has dedicated herself to fostering cats, successfully finding "forever homes" for countless animals. Her dedication and large "bleeding heart" for animals are evident in the compassionate care she provides. She ensures that each animal receives the best possible care, treating them with the love and attention they deserve. Janey's compassion extends beyond animals to humans as well. She thrives in community service and has even started her own community "giving group," demonstrating her commitment to helping others. Her ability to balance empathy and responsibility makes her an exceptional candidate for any pet sitting role. I wholeheartedly endorse Janey for Rover.com. Her reliability, dependability, and immense love for animals make her the perfect choice for anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. She will undoubtedly provide the best care and attention to any pet under her supervision.”

“Ashley is a wonderful, caring pet sitter!!! She’s by far my first choice when I need someone to check on my babies. I’ve used her service many times while I was out of town. She has always updated me daily with a picture of my fur babies looking happy and loved. She’s attentive to your pet’s needs, wants and schedule. She has a lot of experience with a variety of pets that need special attention like for example, a dog with daily medications or anxiety. I have a fur baby on several medications twice daily and Ashley made sure she got them! Ashley is trustworthy, diligent, compassionate and my fur babies absolutely LOVE her. You won’t be disappointed!”


19. Maile N.

“This was my first time using rover.com, Maile N. Was right on time, she followed me to a park, I asked her to walk my dog Doug for half an hour because I have an injured back, she did so with a smile and was very courteous, I will request her from now on when I need my dog walked, she did a great job, my dog is sleeping right by my side right now. Prior to this, he hadn't been walked for almost 9 days due to my back injury, if anyone needs their dog walked, I highly recommend Maile N.”


20. Jessica J.

“Jessica has taken care of my cats and my house for over five years, allowing me to leave town without worrying for a second. She is conscientious, very thorough and does more than I ask her to do. I know my pets are well taken care of and that makes me very happy. Jessica also sends me pictures of my kitties being played with and pet which is very encouraging when I am away from them so long. She doesn't mind long trip durations and the responsibilities of cleaning up after my messy cats, even vacuuming the scattered cat litter. She is very pleasant to work with and has a wonderfully positive attitude.”
