“David, we felt an immediate calm when we met you and saw you with Harry. Our snowboarding trip was a blast and we did not worry about our boy. We hope you will be willing for more stays…we want to snowboard more!”


2. Hector L.

“Hector was absolutely fantastic with our cats and they liked him a lot. He was also very professional and friendly with us, sending us daily updates and pictures. We loved having him and already have him booked to watch our cats for our next trip.”


3. Magdalena B.

“We are happy repeat customers of Magdalena! Always appreciate her consistent communication, updates, and conscientious care for our cat.”


4. Kathryn R.

“Kathryn was so communicative and thoughtful with our pets! Our big dog was being super stubborn due to being on new painkillers while we wait for our surgery date, and Kathryn was so patient and caring with our doggie. It’s always a good sign when our kitty warms up to her quickly too! Moana cat was in her lap immediately! 5/5 absolutely will recommend and already plan to use again!”


5. Sarah L.

“Sarah was an amazing animal and house sitter. Our dogs warmed up to her right away. Even one of the cats came out to snuggle. Sarah checked in every day with pictures and updates. Thank you Sarah! ~Finn, Kida, Nelson and Milo”


6. Jessica M.

“We just came back from our first vacation in years and Jessica was a huge reason our trip was great. We have two dogs we care deeply for and boarding them for just a weekend was stressful… and expensive! Our older dog has incredible anxiety every time we leave. So we decided to give Rover a try and we’re very happy we did. We met with a couple of sitters before our trip and Jessica impressed us with her flexibility and professionalism so we asked her to dogsit for the three nights we were away. She was great with our dogs and cared for them the way we wanted. In addition, she sent us pictures and texts with updates on the dogs. She made a great impression and completely sold us on Rover. I now feel confident that we can take more relaxing vacations knowing how well she took care of our dogs! I couldn’t have asked for more.”


7. Brittany D.

“Brittany was a great sitter for our puppy, Kya, while we were away for Thanksgiving. She was positive, caring and great at communicating updates throughout her stay. I would definitely recommend Brittany - we’ve already booked her in for the next time we’ll be away. Brittany, thanks for being so caring and thoughtful with Kya!”


8. Tasha E.
“I was a little hesitant on using a pet sitter form Rover. I’ve had some experiences with past sitters from other companies that left me feeling disappointed, so I was very reluctant to try again. I was assigned Tasha and to say I was completely 100% happy and grateful for Tasha was an understatement. My fur baby is a little shy and it takes her time to warm up to people. As soon as Tasha came to my home she put my girl at ease by approaching her slowly and allowing her time to adjust to her. Tasha was friendly, professional and loving towards my girl. Tasha took care of her with compassion and I can’t say enough good things about Tasha!”


9. Sara S.

“Sara took such amazing care of our dog while we were away!! She stayed at our house with Roxy and took care of her for 6 days. Sara sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout the week. She took Roxy on walks, played ball with her in our backyard, gave her lots of love and made sure she was okay during the holiday neighborhood fireworks and in the summer heat. We were so happy with Sara that we already booked her to stay with Roxy for our next vacation in a few weeks!”


10. Christopher C.

“Christopher is fantastic and a natural when it comes to taking care of animals. All 6 pets love him! Even my 2 very shy cats love to play and he is fantastic when taking my 2 Goldens for a walk! Highly highly recommend!”


11. Aimee L.
“They are so amazing at caring for pets! I have had them care for my dog and cats before and always do such an excellent job. On top of that, they have also cared for my leopard gecko, baby tarantula, and corn snake in the past and always do such an incredible job(even when feeding live insects and doing frozen/thawed mice). They are patient, responsible, and clearly love animals very much.”


12. Adreana K.
“I recently hired Adreana to care for my pets Kya & Comet , and I couldn't be happier with the experience! She was incredibly attentive, always providing updates and photos to keep me at ease while I was away. My pets absolutely loved her, and it was clear that she genuinely cared for their well-being. Adreana is responsible and goes the extra mile to ensure everything is perfect. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!”


13. Whitnee M.
“Whitnee was great and my dogs loved her!”


14. Alex K.


“Alex is a wonderful sitter. Our dogs and cat love her and she took such fantastic care of our home. We feel very lucky to have her as our walker and sitter!”


15. Olivia B.
“Olivia has taken care of foster dogs/puppies in the past and has also helped me take care of my dog who was older and she always had a love for pets and she is also so good with them.”


16. Kelsey S.

“Kelsey was extremely good with Hazelnut, she applied every instruction that I gave for him. She tried to do more and I really appreciate that. The house was left clean. I would definitely rehire her again for dog sitting.”
