1. Madeline B.
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, and Madeline was phenomenal. My dog, Swiffy, loved her immediately and she sent me thorough updates of their time together which really helped put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my event knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.”
2. Charlii C.
“Charlii was wonderful! Kept us posted on how our pup was doing, as well as made sure he was warm and cared for during the cold wonder days. Highly recommend her to watch your precious fur balls!”
3. Malia K.
“Malia was caring, attentive and an amazing sitter. My baby was well cared for and Malia went above & beyond to make sure my doggo was happy too. I have a senior doggo and I was at ease the whole time I was gone because I knew Malia was caring for her. I’m confident I will be hiring Malia again.”

7. Melina B.
“Melina was an amazing sitter and proved to be absolutely perfect for a week long house sitter for our dog who struggles with separation anxiety. She provided updates multiple times a day with photos and description of the days activities. She followed our instructions to a T and we could tell that our dog was super happy with the experience upon our return. Will definitely book Melina again if she is available when we need a sitter for a long weekend.”
