“Kat took great care of my dogs and my house while I was on vacation for 32 days. It was a big relief to know my dogs were safe and well cared for. I don’t travel much but I would be happy to use her services again.”

“Ida and Travis were amazing to work with! They sent tons of cute photos of my cats, were the best communicators, and even left my home cleaner than they found it. They were very attentive to learning about my cats' needs and managing challenges like my sticky front door key. I'd definitely use them again!”


“I’ve had Barbara house sit with my animals two times now, and she has been communicative and helpful each time. I was running around before my trip and I forgot to leave her instructions in my home, but she was super understanding and helpful when I reached out with notes on medication and food. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Cara did such a wonderful job taking care of my 4 cats and dog while I was away. She was communicative, thoughtful, and sent lots of updates and photos that made me feel so much more relaxed. My dog Maverick is usually very nervous around strangers, but he really warmed up to her by the end, which says a lot. I came home to very happy, well cared for pets and I’d absolutely trust her with them again.”


“Wow! What an incredible sitter Hong was. This is the first time I have ever been away from my fur babies and not worried once. She was so communicative the entire time and I came back to happy dogs and a pristine house. If I could give her 10 stars I would! Thank you again Hong. ❤️”

“Jena provided exceptional pet sitting services for our two bulldogs. Her communication was outstanding throughout the stay, keeping us promptly informed of any concerns and proactively offering to coordinate veterinary care when one of our dogs experienced paw issues. Her attention to detail extended beyond pet care - she maintained the house immaculately and took the initiative to launder and remake the guest bedroom. Regular updates about our dogs' well-being gave us complete peace of mind during our absence. Based on this experience, we wholeheartedly endorse Jena as a trustworthy and professional pet sitter!”

“Haniya took care of our 2 kitties and pup overnight. She was very communicative, sending photos and updates and quick to text back when we reached out. Haniya was great managing all 3 of the pets and their needs, including giving insulin and oral medicine to one of our kitties and a pill to our pup. We came home to happy animals and a clean home!”


“We can’t thank Michelle enough for the incredible care she provided to Hampton during our 12 day trip. This was our first extended vacation since Hampton was recently diagnosed with chf, and leaving him was understandably stressful. From our very first meet and greet, Michelle immediately put us at ease with her kindness, confidence, and genuine love for animals. Hampton now requires medication six times a day, and Michelle never hesitated to take on his complex care routine. She made sure he stayed on schedule, kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and treated him like he was her own. Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. We came home to a happy, healthy pup and a spotless home. Michelle exceeded every expectation, and we would not hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, attentive, and truly goes above and beyond, Michelle is the one. Thank you again for everything! We are so grateful.”

“Honestly there’s nothing I can say to convey how wonderful and at ease our dog was with him. He was attentive to our fur baby and treated him like we would. It was nice to enjoy our night out and not have to worry about our dog because we knew that Thomas was everything and more than we can ask for in a dog sitter. Our fur baby was truly in good hands.”

“I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!”

“Ryan is an exceptional pet sitter. He’s professional diligent friendly and he loves animals. Our dog Sammy is very particular about whom he likes and Sammy loves Ryan. It’s very hard for me to leave my dog when we travel. However I never worry when Ryan is caring for him. When we return it’s obvious Sammy has been well cared for and well loved by Ryan.”

“We have always had good luck with sitters, but Isaiah is on another level! We had unexpected medical issues arise with our fosters right before we left town. Isaiah adapted with no issues whatsoever, and sent us tons of pics and updates to let us know everything was all right. As a nice bonus, our home was spotless when we returned! I would absolutely recommend Isaiah as the most experienced and professional pet-sitter anyone could ask for. Can't say enough good things!”

“Nicole was FANTASTIC! We have three small dogs that she sat for 7 days. They are a bit anxious and can be handful, but Nicole had no problem. They came to love her so much. She communicated well and sent photos, and the house was spotless when we returned. We will be booking Nicole again and again!”

“Laura’s first time dog sitting for us went smoothly. This was an overnight trip. She sent us photo updates and was responsive when we texted to check in. When we got home, the house was tidy, their water bowls were filled, and Cannoli and Da Vinci were in good spirits. We’ve booked Laura for an extended stay while we’re on an international trip. Thanks, Laura!”

“Wenjie did so well with our cranky old dog, taking care of the dog and apartment equally. He is cheery, responsive, and responsible, and we would book him again for Henry in a heartbeat”

“Kaiya helped us last minute with a drop in over the holidays for our 2 medium sized rescue dogs. She was very kind and patient with them. She was easy to communicate with and asked good questions which helped me feel reassured. We will be working with her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Merriwood
We originally had Maya walk our golden retriever and she did an excellent job with that so we decided to have her dogsit when we went out of town. We've now had her dogsit for us twice and she's done an absolutely perfect job both times. We come home to a clean house and happy dog every time.

We are so grateful we found Tommy! He stayed overnight to take care of our 2 kitties and pup. One of our cats has a lot of health conditions, and it's a bit of a complicated routine. Tommy was able to give insulin and multiple medications during the stay. He was an excellent communicator and we felt safe knowing he was with our babies.

Brady was awesome! From the beginning he was a quick and easy person to communicate with, and arrange the meet/greet. He took amazing care of Winston as when we walked in after our trip, Winston was happy and healthy. He updated us everyday and sent pictures/video. Winston needed some ear meds while we were gone which is no easy task and he had the patience and made it happen. He also left the house in the same manner in which he found it which was super respectful and kind. We highly recommend Brady and look forward to having him take care of Winston again in the future. Thank you Brady!!

Chloe was amazing!! They stayed with my senior cat for a week and kept my all my plants (indoor and outdoor) alive and thriving. They were very communicative and detail oriented also sent pictures and updates morning and night. The house looked even better then when I left it and my cat didn’t even seem to notice I was gone. I would definitely recommend Chloe for any of your pet or plant needs! Thank you Chloe!!
