“Amelia was fantastic. We will 100% be booking with her again. She took great care of our baby while we were away and took amazing care of the house. The house was cleaner than when we left it. She took pics daily and gave us a daily report. We are so lucky we found Amelia to watch our Willow. Thank you so much, Amelia!”
“Maggie did a wonderful job for us and our two dogs. She maintained reassuring communication with us, including pictures and anecdotes about our dogs. Everything was ship-shape when we returned. Our dogs were calm and happy, both are indicators of the great care and attention they received in our absence.”
“It’s obvious that Erin LOVES animals. She took such great care of my two babies while I was out of town for work with regular updates to me so I didn’t miss them so much. She was also very respectful of my living space. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Carolina is hands down the best. This was my first time booking a house sitter and it was such a great experience. Carolina is super responsive and provided daily updates while I was away. The whole process was seamless and I wasn’t worried after our initial meeting. Pets were well cared for and I appreciate it all. I will for sure be booking Carolina in the future when I travel or need care for my pets!”

Every day we got pictures and videos and could tell that Connie was really interacting successfully with our somewhat shy, sweet pet. We could not recommend her more highly! She is a gem!!”
“Shykala did a great job with our dog! He had some nervousness being with a new person and she handled things really well and took good care of him.”
“This is our second time having Autumn stay with our pups while away on a trip and, just like the first time, she was fantastic! Daily communication and photos, not afraid to share any concerns, even minor ones, so that we were up to date, and left everything clean and tidy for when we returned home... probably even better than when we left! Highly recommend!”

“Emerson was very communicative and shared regular photos of the pets, which I enjoy. He was also very helpful with some unexpected mail deliveries and minor house issues as well.”
“Nicole is amazing! We lost one of our cats just days before our trip leaving her sister behind. She was able to add some more days and kept Willow comfortable during a time of grief and stress along with eye drops for her. We are so greatful to have had her as our sitter. I was even under a lot of stress and anxiety but she was absolutely amazing the whole way through. Thank you Nicole!”
“Rachel did an excellent job watching my 95lb dog, Huck. She was responsible, reliable, and responded quickly. The day before she came to watch Huck, our AC broke and she rolled with it. The entire time I was gone I was at ease knowing Rachel was watching Huck and she sent lots of updates and photos. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Laura was exceptional. Made herself available on short notice and extended her coverage when we needed her more days than initially requested and on a holiday weekend. Did a fabulous job with our dogs and our home. Very trust worthy and dependable. Can't thank her enough. The dogs loved her!”
“Kimbrey & Sean were both very responsive and sent lots of appreciated pictures and videos of my pets! They both listened to all the details I shared on my pups special needs and answered all my questions while I was away.”

McKinley pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily was amazing!! Our two dogs loved spending time with her. She was so responsive to all communication. Emily was incredibly professional and responsible. We had her stay at our house and everything was clean and tidy when we returned. She sent pictures every day of our pups and even helped with a bit of watering! We are so grateful for her attention to detail and care and will definitely book her again for future needs. Highly recommend!!
I cannot say enough nice things about Laura, she did an AMAZING job watching my dog for the long weekend. I got a ton of photos, a daily video updates, and a daily summary of all the fun activities her and Pringle did each day! Plus, she left my place practically spotless which was amazing to come home too! My dog is truly sad to have me home, as she had such a great time with Laura! Cannot recommend her enough!
Patrick was amazing! Super helpful and communicative. They arrived promptly and provided sweet pictures and updates. They took excellent care of our pets and even stopped to get a new collar for our dog after it snapped on a walk! Would absolutely recommend and will definitely book again.
Tatiana, hung out with our crew of 5 sighthounds (whippets and greyhounds) at our AirBnB for 12 hours when we were in town for a family wedding an hour away. It was too far to drive back and forth during the day, so knowing someone was there to feed them dinner, potty them and let’s face it … watch them nap 😂 was a relief and allowed us to enjoy my step daughter’s big day. Tatiana was thoughtful, calm and accommodating to the needs of our crew. She cleaned all their dinner bowls and food containers and we came home closer to midnight to a calm crew of doggos. We can’t thank her enough and hope we have another reason to need her next time we come to town with everyone. ❤️
Aimee was great! She was not afraid to take on the additional responsibilities of caring for a senior dog. She shared photos and updates which helped to ease our worry of leaving our pup for a few days. I would be happy to have Aimee back to dog sit anytime and totally recommend her.
Laura did a wonderful job dog sitting for my elderly dog. Being that my dog is so old, she requires a lot of pills and has a high maintenance outdoor schedule. It was nice to know my dog was in such capable hands when we were away. Additionally, Laura was very communicative throughout the stay and left a nice detailed summary of the status of things at the end. Finally, she left the house very clean and washed the sheets and towels, which was very thoughtful. My dog had a couple of accidents, too, that she cleaned up effectively. Thanks, Laura, for a great dog sitting experience!
Anna was an amazing house/pet sitter for us. We took a long trip out of town and I would hear updates every day with photos. The stress of leaving our home before a trip was softened greatly knowing it was in great, trusting, responsible hands! When we got home, everything was exactly how we left it (and possibly even cleaner!) Our pup and kitty took to her immediately and they are now forever friends. I could not recommend Anna more. She's the best around.
