House sat for us for 18 days. Kept good care of the house and animals. Sent update pictures everyday when the dogs were being let out and walked. Came back home to happy healthy dogs.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
