1. Lisbet A.
“As a first-time user I was hesitant but Lisbet put us at ease. She showed up on time, gave us pupdates, house was left in order, and pup seemed happy.”
2. Bennie & Jennie D.
“Jennie (and Bennie) are the best - see my last review! Jennie worked miracles with our shyest cat. I never thought I’d see him happily come out and meet strangers, and Jennie has patiently socialized him, to the point he happily greets her! Thank you, as always!”
3. Michelle M.
“I am always hesitant to leave my dog with strangers, but Michelle took great care of my little Wiley while I was out of town! She’s clearly a dog lover, very responsible, was responsive to any questions I had & sent pics every day. I’d definitely hire her again!”
4. Dylan S.
“Dylan took absolutely wonderful care of our cat, Theo, while we were away for over two weeks. It’s the longest time we have ever been away from Theo and I was very anxious but Dylan helped me relax and enjoy myself due to his regular updates that included photos and videos. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. He’s extremely responsible and very nice and Theo made friends with him immediately.”
5. Salem M.
“salem did an amazing job. This is the second time she sat for me. She enjoys staying with my kids and all are happy and healthy when i got back a week later. She goes above and beyond. Even my house was clean and with the plethora of fur and scaled kids that I have, coming back to a clean house is a rarity. Thank you so much! 💕”
6. Michelle Z.
“Absolutely fantastic. She House/Cat sat for us and was very communicative, sent lots of photos, gave us many updates, and left the house immaculate. We can tell if a cat sitter hasn’t done their job because our cat gets stress dreadlocks. Our cat was incredibly happy and his coat was perfect when we got home. She also took him on his leash walks which made him extra happy. Highly recommended.”
7. Don D.
“We had Don watch our 3 year old dog for 3 nights and 4 days. He was absolutely the perfect sitter. He arrived at 5:30AM so we could have our dog be with him while we headed to the airport to relieve any anxiety and stayed until 7:00PM so we could get back not too late with our dog being alone. Don was very kind, sweet, and attentive towards our dog. He asked for a detailed item list for his stay, he sent us a ton of photos and videos without us having to always ask, and reached out to help clean up sheets, vacuum, take the trash out before his stay ended. You can tell he has a passion for dogs and truly enjoys spending time with them. I would highly recommend Don if you are looking to enjoy your vacation or time away and want to feel like you can trust someone to make your dog happy. We look forward to hiring him again next time we are out of town. He will be our first choice in sitters moving forward.”
8. Audrey w.
“My husband and I were very happy with our first experience using Rover, with Audrey. We have recently adopted a rescue mixed breed dog and could not leave him in a kennel setting for several reasons. Audrey went the extra mile to become acquainted with our boy, Crockett, and us before she house sat and dog sat. She made him feel very comfortable and cared for. Over our trip we had the peace of mind that he was being taken good care of with Audrey. In fact, we have re-booked her for another time soon.”
9. Cheri I.
“Bella was wonderful. Raya enjoyed spending time with her in our home. She did a great job of leaving everything exactly as we had it, giving us updates on Raya, and taking care of the house and Raya. We would definitely ask Bella to watch Raya again.”
10. Opal C.
“Opal did an excellent job of watching our 3 dogs- who can definitely be a handful! She communicated before, during and after the engagement which was very helpful. She confirmed with us when she completed each of their walks, when they completed their meals and pictures were sent daily. I personally like getting lots of pictures while we are gone and she was very willing to do so. Thanks Opal!”
11. Kevin T.
“Kevin was an awesome house sitter for our large dogs. He was very communicative, thoughtful and had a great attitude. Our pups are fairly active... and spoiled but Kevin took care of them as well as we would have. He gave them a lot of walks and attention. One of ours takes a lot of suppliments and medicine which wasn't a problem either. Kevin took good care of our place and was very clean too. He sent lots of pictures and provided a lot of updates. We would recommend Kevin to anyone looking for pet services.”
12. Lilah S.
“Lilah was absolutely awesome. I was skeptical at first since it was my first time using rover.com but I found the best pet sitter on the site. My dogs were instantly comfortable with Lilah. She is sweet and knows how to take care of them. She sent pictures and updates throughout my trip and even texted to ask permission to go out or to have a friend over. It was a long trip and I didn't get home until 2am. I was pleasantly surprised to come home to freshly washed bedsheets and a clean house. I would recommend Lilah to everyone. If you want an excellent, reliable and trustworthy sitter, Lilah is the one you want...”
13. Brenda A.
“Brenda is such an amazing sitter, seeing how she interacts with the animals in her care and seeing how happy they are with her, shows she has a great heart.”
14. Kaitlyn R.
“First, Caitlin was so incredibly helpful because she was available at the last minute when I had an emergency cancellation. I had never met her before and she couldn’t have been more enthusiastic and helpful. Sent me many videos, and photos of Penny and Penny looked extremely happy and playful in each one of them. She went out of her way to clean the house before she left. It’s so obvious to see how much she loves and enjoys dogs. Thank you,Kaitlyn.”
15. Joy B.
“I arranged to meet Joy before our trip and instantly felt comfortable with her and completely trusted leaving our dog and home in her care. She left our home spotless, and even washed her bed sheets before leaving! Our dog loved going on walks and hanging out with her and we loved getting the updates with pictures😍We are thrilled to have found our go to pet sitter. Thank you, Joy!!”
16. Bre Anna M.
“Bre Anna was AMAZING with my very energetic 15 week-old puppy, Charlie. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
17. Elizabeth M.
“Elizabeth was the greatest! She took great care of my dogs and home while we were away. She is great with communication, sending updates, photos, and I didn’t even have to ask. We booked last minute after our plans with a friend who was going to watch our dogs fell through, and she was very flexible. I will definitely be hiring her again! It’s very comforting not having to worry about trusting a sitter when you are out of town!”
18. Ann Y.
“Ann got along with Twyla swimmingly! She even taught her how to shake hands!”
19. Mark F.
“Amazing sitter! My pups always have a blast. Lots of great photos/videos. Very respectful of my home and kept it clean. This is my second time using Mark; and I definitely will again!!!”
20. Halley P.
“As always, Halley was amazing watching our pup and kitty. She responded last minute to our request. And not only did she care for our fur babies, she also went out of her way to untangle a mess of necklaces on our table. Saved us hours :) Thanks again Halley!”
