Merrlam Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Erin stayed with our golden retriever, Harvey, for two weekends in the past month. We’ve never used rover before and we were a little nervous, but Erin was so great with him and sent us lots of updates. She also was very thoughtful of our space! (I.e washing the sheets and towels, making the bed, running the dishwasher, leaving the space clean). Would definitely recommend!

Jadyn was so wonderful taking care of our pets and home while we were away on a week-long family vacation. She obviously cares for and loves animals deeply and was very thorough in our meet-and-greet making sure she understood our pets’ needs. She also left an amazingly sweet note and surprise for our five-year-old daughter which made returning from our trip that much more magical. 100% will be booking with her again! :)

Jullia is truly caring of dogs, and in my case, with a puppy. At this most recent visit she noted him as being bigger, a little more mature, and acknowledged my recently extreme efforts to crate train him. When I returned, Jullia told me how well he did with the routine I have established, and she followed. My pup looked happy, and I appreciated that! It was nice to have her here.

Lillian did such a great job watching my cat! He was so happy to have her company and I could tell he was well cared for. She was thoughtful, reliable and sent daily updates with pictures. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter!

Olivia has proven herself to be a reliable, dedicated, and generally awesome caretaker for our finicky dogs and cat while we were away, allowing us to enjoy our trip without worrying about a thing! We hope she is available the next time we have to head out of town, as she will be our go-to for any check-ins or pet sitting. We would recommend her without hesitation!

Mercy is a great pet and house sitter. We are super grateful to have found her! Moxie (our dog) thinks she is great and is always settled and happy when we return. She is so responsible and thoughtful. I love the photos and little videos she sends us. Thanks, Mercy!

Susan did an amazing job watching Grace and making her feel at home. Susan sent updates and made sure to communicate at all times of the day. Grace had a great time playing and going on walks, Susan made sure to accommodate all of Grace's needs and medications. We would definitely book with Susan again!!

Ann was absolutely phenominal. She was so easy to communicate with and sent lovely updates about all of our animals. We could tell that she truly cared about our space and especially our furry family. I'm so grateful that we found her and will absolutely try to book with her again the next time we need a sitter.

Claudia is a gem! Our senior dog Shandy was having some health issues and we were a bit nervous leaving her for the long weekend. Claudia put our minds at ease the minute we met her. She is caring, compassionate, communicative and extremely responsible. Claudia did an exceptional job taking care of our girl. She shared regular updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We came home to a happy pup and a spotless house. 10/10 would recommend Claudia in a heartbeat!
