“Ammon was wonderful!! Our pup is notoriously shy, but Ammon was patient and kind and quickly won her over! Sent lots of picture updates of walks in the park and snuggles on the couch. Thank you, Ammon!”
“Madeline did a fantastic job hanging out with Ollie for the evening. Ollie immediately took to Madeline, and she provided wonderful photo updates during the sit. Would definitely recommend Madeline to others, and I look forward to booking her again in the future.”
“Saifa was the best! My dog can be reactive to other dogs and is a finicky eater and Saifa had no problems. I got pictures and updates all weekend and overall she’s super communicative. Overall great house sitting experience!!”
“We had such a positive experience working with Aida. Our pup loved Aida, who was also great at communicating with us about our dog throughout her stay. She was fantastic at following our feeding instructions and giving her the attention our pup needs. I can’t recommend Aida enough and I hope we get to work with her again.”
“Caroline did a great job with my dog, Indy, for a weekend away. She was communicative, neat, conscientious, and provided lots of updates - I would definitely ask her to watch Indy again!”
“MintZhet did a wonderful job for us when our regular sitter was out of town. Kind, professional, communicative. Very glad to have met you, MintZhet! Thanks again.”
“Our lab mix has come to love Alejandra so much that he jumps up to greet her and licks her face! The absolute best to know that he feels safe and comfortable around her when we are gone!”
“Jessie is fantastic! Amazing at communication and sent great pictures and updates throughout the weekend that made me feel comfortable that my dog was in good hands. Our dog gets highly anxious when we travel and I came home to a very happy pup. Will definitely use her again. Highly recommend!”
“Durgaprasad took amazing care of my fur babies and my apartment for four days. I came back to happy, well-cared-for pups and a perfectly tidy home. He’s professional, reliable, and clearly loves dogs.”
“Razan was a great help when we needed to book a sitter pretty last minute. She came over for a meet and greet and was really thorough in her questioning and communication as it related to Hugo. While Hugo was in her care I felt very in the know of how things were going and knew he was safe! She kept our space very clean and was a great guest and sitter to have.”
“It’s always nerve-wracking to find a new sitter, but Ashley was such a gift while I was away. She’s an incredibly attentive and thoughtful sitter who took amazing care of my cat, Bowie, who can get separation anxiety and has some specific routines. I could tell he felt comfortable and well looked after in her care. She checked in regularly, asked great questions, and shared thoughtful updates and photos that gave me real peace of mind. I always miss him when I’m away, but knowing he was in such capable, caring hands made all the difference. After a medical issue that had developed during a previous stay, Ashley adapted our care plan, kept to his routine, and was fully prepared to administer medication when needed. This was one of the most positive experiences I’ve had on Rover — I’d love to work with her again. Thank you again, Ashley!”
“Samantha was wonderful with our cat & dog. She came for a meet and greet before the trip, and sent regular updates and photos while we were away. She was a huge help, and we’ll be hiring her again!”
“Pater was a great caretaker for my dog Reggie while I was Traveling, he took the time to have a detailed conversation with me to make sure he understood the care Reggie needed. While I was away, Peter was very communicative, took Reggie on many walks in the park and sent pictures. He was super respectful of my apartment and left it super clean, highly recommend if you need a great sitter!”
“Anj took wonderful care of Gooby and our apartment during a long weekend. She sent multiple updates throughout the weekend and we could see how comfortable Gooby was with her! Gooby is excited for his next stay with Anj 😁”
“THE BEST DOG SITTER EVER!!!!!! She was responsive, gave frequent updates, was so attentive, took our doggo on adventures, was respectful to our house, and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable while we were away. I will 100% be booking with her in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Theresa was a fantastic house sitting for the night. She took care of our per our instructions and was very communicative while we were away for the night. Definitely will reach out to her again!”
“Adam is a fantastic sitter and walker - would highly recommend! Extremely communicative and responsive, and was very patient with my active dog. Adam took the time to understand my dog’s unique needs and did everything he could to make sure my dog was as happy and comfortable as possible.”
“Jake was an incredible sitter! They took such good care of our senior dog. Jake was very communicative with us, sending several updates (and cute pictures) over the course of the weekend. I would recommend them to anyone.”
“Fatima was absolutely fantastic house sitting and caring for our two super senior old guys. She was so attentive and sent tons of pictures and was always quick to respond to any messages. Really just overall so nice to know your dogs are in such good hands in their own home while traveling.”
Midtown pet parents share their Rover experiences
I was very happy with Caroline as my pet sitter. It was my first time leaving my dog with a stranger and I was nervous. Caroline was very communicative and professional, and really put my mind at ease. I wrote up a long list of info/instructions and she didn't act like I was crazy! She was punctual. She left my apartment in perfect condition and my dog clearly had a fine time (he always has a little anxiety when I pack a suitcase but she clearly managed it well). I will definitely use Caroline again!
Yasha was amazing with our dog Willow for a longer stay while we were away. Willow had TPLO surgery five weeks prior and was on strict activity restriction, so it was very important that we found someone to trust with all the special instructions and medications, and Yasha was wonderful with all of it, and sent amazing updates :). Would definitely recommend Yasha for medical/ senior dogs!
Allen was very patient with Major (as was Bean, Allen’s Goldendoodle). He achieved what I thought was impossible: he tired my boy out! They spent a lot of time outside (taking him for walks and bike rides) and quality cuddle times. When my flight was delayed, Allen was very flexible about staying late until I arrived. For my first time leaving Major, he was in great hands with Allen. I got the pics and vids to prove it!
This was my first time leaving Ruffles with someone, Mint’s puppy experience was a big plus and great reviews. I also had a wonderful experience, he’s super nice and great communication; I felt at ease. Arrived promptly and stayed an extra 10 minutes as I was running late back. I received updates and photos and really felt a-okay for the first time being away. Ruffles was in good spirits when I arrived home and slept through the night. I will be hiring again!
This was our second time booking Alice and Ethan to watch Mango, and we honestly couldn't ask for better sitters! We were away in Ireland for our wedding, and having them look after Mango gave us total peace of mind. Alice and Ethan were incredibly proactive and efficient at figuring out Mango’s needs whenever anything came up. They sent constant updates and were so patient with his initially shy personality. They were also super prompt with his feeding schedule and medical needs, including his inhaler. Mango was so incredibly happy the entire time. We are so glad to have found them and cannot recommend them highly enough!
Amanda was such a great help during our latest trip. We have a senior dog and she really took good care of him. Unfortunately he had to go to the emergency vet two times late at night and Amanda never questioned taking him. She stayed with him for multiple hours at the vet and was such a great help. Thanks!
Anxhela is incredible. My dog is usually very anxious, but he warmed up to her almost instantly — something that never happens. She kept me updated the entire time and was so communicative and responsive. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and has a special ability to connect with them, which gave me so much comfort while I was away. I came home to a spotless apartment, thoughtful touches, and even a sweet card. She truly went above and beyond and I can't recommend her enough.
Violetta took great care of Scooby. Communication was excellent throughout, and I really appreciated the many photos and updates she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure Scooby was comfortable. I would be happy to book with her again.
We could not have had a better experience tan what we had with Mariah. She made sure our dog was safe, happy, and doted on. Our old lady has a couple of medicine routines and Mariah remained firmly on top of them. We got numerous updates with a happy, smiling bulldog. When we came back our place was perfectly kept and our dog was already missing her!
Cody did such a fantastic job not just with Sadie, but also with checking in, sharing pictures, asking if she can (or can’t) do things like sit at brunch.. and the cherry on top is that I came home to an apartment that was exactly how I left it: clean and organized, as if Cody wasn’t even here. I can’t recommend Cody enough!
