“Clair was great! Was very attentive, sent pictures and notes about how my 2 kitties were doing and even read through my crazy long cat manual/notes. Will definitely be reaching out again!”
“Mo was really great with my dog, Bandit. Bandit is a Pomeranian with a lot of “agency” and Mo was a great person to have here for a dog that can be difficult at times. I know Bandit loved Mo as when I changed the sheets on his bed, Bandit immediately jumped on the sheets as he missed Mo!”
“Cienne took great care of my pups! She stayed at my home and sent lots of updates which I love. My girls looked very happy and comfortable. Will definitely have her over again!”
“Our dog does not like people other than my wife really. But she took to Christine on day one and was climbing into her lap that night. It is such a relief to know someone who gets along with our dog is taking care of them. Would definitely hire again!”
“We just had the best dog care we’ve ever had with Jessica! I have an old lady dog that I’m always worried about. I’ve skipped out on trips that my dog couldn’t come on the last couple of years because I’m so afraid of leaving her. Not anymore! Will absolutely hire Jessica again in a heart beat. She took excellent care of my dog and had amazing communication with me throughout the days with pictures and descriptions about what my dog was doing. I was never worried about her and could actually enjoy my vacation. Not to mention I came home to a sparkling clean house- would absolutely recommend Jessica to watch your pups. She is a gem!”
“This recent booking was our first overnight stay with Steven. I’ve booked Steven a couple times before for day-stays and I was so relieved to hear he was available for house sitting while I went on a several day hiking trip in California. My pup is anxious and very attached to me so, I have a hard time leaving her with just anyone. Knowing Steven would be taking care of my pup let me fully enjoy myself while I was away. I’m appreciative of his flexibility, understanding, and communication. Thank you for all of your kindness and patience with Palomita! Can’t wait for our next house sitting opportunity.”
“Melissa was amazing! Not only did my dog, Ellie, have a blast with her, but she was happy and healthy when I returned. she was also very great with her communication with me and left my house in great shape.”
“Barbara was amazing! I came to Austin for a conference that had me away all day and night and wanted to make sure my 13 year old (spoiled) golden was cared for deeply. She was so attentive to his needs and care, it made me feel so at ease while I was away. Barbara was so professional, responsible, and attentive. Highly recommend her to care for your furry babies.”
“I again want to shout out Kirby for being a fantastic sitter for my pup, Rudy! Rudy is an anxious pup and Kirby does an amazing job of making him feel comfortable. Kirby always sends amazing updates and pictures. I never have any issues and know that Rudy is in great hands. Thanks again Kirby! Rudy misses you!”
“Melondy was extremely communicative and thoughtful during her stay with Layla. She made sure she came over right on time, sent me regular updates on how Layla was doing and followed the pet care instructions to the letter. Additionally she was respectful of our space and left the house spotless! I would absolutely book again!”
“Alicia took great care of our dog while away and had great communication! You can tell she cares for your dogs comfort. Thank you for everything, Alicia! I recommend to book her.”
“Crystal was wonderful with my aging pup Polly who needed a little more attention and help on this booking as she was healing from an episode of vestibular disease. Crystal not only took great care of Polly and provided helpful updates to me, she also left our home in a great way as well. Highly recommend booking with Crystal.”
“Rasika was amazing to work with. I needed someone very last minute and she was very fast to respond and arrange for us to introduce her to Ekko. She has good experience working with dogs and is great at ensuring they are comfortable and relaxed. She sent very frequent updates and photos during her time with Ekko to show things are going well. Highly recommend working with her!”
“Ryan was incredible! He took care of my two crazy pups and exceeded my expectations! He is very easy to reach at all times and sent loads of pictures which made me feel much better about leaving. He loves your pups as his own! In addition, he left our apartment spotless which was great to come home to. He is AMAZING!”
“Lauren is incredible. She was so communicative, sent so many photos and cleaned up before she left and took great care of our fur children (who are crazy sometimes like two little toddlers)! Thank you so much Lauren!!!”
“Woody was the best! First time leaving my dog who is like my child and love of my life with someone other than family. Woody made me feel so comfortable and she took amazing care of her while I was away for a trip! Even came home to swept floors, clean sheets and towels which was never ever expected. Thank you so much Woody for your kindness, care and communication!”

McKinney pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lauren was great! She did a meet and greet and got to know my pets and their needs before I left for my trip. Since my dog is a senior dog and needs assistance with walking at times and takes multiple daily medications I am always a little nervous to leave him. She provided photo updates frequently so I never had to wonder if the animals were okay. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation and not worry at all about my pets!
If you want a great pet sitter, look no further! Aaron was a fantastic pet/house sitter for my 2 boys. It was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better choice in pet sitter. Aaron was very patient with all my questions & concerns. My place was also left very tidy when I returned home at the end of my trip. I'd give more than 5 stars if I could.
Barbara was amazing! I came to Austin for a conference that had me away all day and night and wanted to make sure my 13 year old (spoiled) golden was cared for deeply. She was so attentive to his needs and care, it made me feel so at ease while I was away. Barbara was so professional, responsible, and attentive. Highly recommend her to care for your furry babies.
Laura was AMAZING. I have two very energetic but different personality dogs and she was amazing with both of them. Her communication was amazing. she took care of my house so nicely, it’s like she was never here! And most importantly my dogs were so cared for that I don’t even think they noticed we were gone. I appreciate her so much!!!
Carissa is amazing and super sweet! She took such good care of my dog Bodhi while we were away. They went on so many walks and she left our house so clean! She's great with communication and sends the cutest pictures. I will definitely be booking with her again
Katie was phenomenal! We will absolutely be booking her again in the future. She communicated exceptionally well, played with and loved all of my babies equally, and went above and beyond while caring for them. She also kept the house super clean, respected all house rules, and did an amazing job overall. We highly recommend her!
