“Cara was great with my cats and kept me very updated while I was away. She sent great pictures and notes after each visit and I appreciate her care of my pets and home! Thanks Cara!!”
“Meg has cared for Kate the dog and Cat the cat for a few years now and is above and beyond 5-star. We love her! And, here’s a prime example…a couple months ago Meg was doing a drop in visit at a neighbors and Kate noticed her through the window and was so happy she was wiggly and ready to great her at the door, thinking she was coming to see her. I had to message Meg and ask if we could say hi to her before she left because Kate was so excited. That is true devotion and love!”
“Chrissy and Matt are so helpful and am thankful for their flexibility. I was also nervous letting people in with our German Shepard but after 2 visits they seemed pretty comfortable in their care.”
“Taryn was fantastic! She showed up right on time, let our dogs out, and spent a full half-hour playing with them. Communication was quick and easy, and I really appreciated the picture updates—it gave me peace of mind knowing my pups were happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book her again!”
“Deidre was our first Rover sitter and we couldn’t have been more pleased. She provided excellent care to our senior dog and wonderful updates after each visit. I highly recommend her!”

“What a fantastic experience! Marissa looked over my two cats during our extended honeymoon stay. Marissa was so easy to work with and allowed us to add four additional days onto our honeymoon thanks to her flexibility and professionalism. I truly cannot give a high enough rating for the experience and piece of mind she provided.”
“Patricia was great! Took such sweet care of my cat while I was away and even went so far as to try to help troubleshoot some issues with my apartment while I was away. Amazingly communicative and just overall great to work with! Will definitely book her again in the future!”
“Lori did a great job watching our cat for an extended stay! She's very shy but Lori was able to get her to warm up to her after a few days. The apartment was in great condition as well.”
“Ron is great and SO reliable. I never wonder for even a moment whether he’ll show up as scheduled or care for our dogs as we request. I can see in the photos he takes that the dogs greet him at the door with toys to show off to him — an unmistakable sign that they are happy to see him!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Dalton really helped us feel comfortable with the process. He was really great with our dog and gave him the attention and exercise he needed.”

“Becky was a lifesaver with a last minute request! This was our first experience using Rover and we feel so lucky to have found Becky. We enjoyed the updates during her visits and returned home to 2 very well cared for doggos. She even brought in our mail! ?”
“Fantastic! Was out of town for two weeks and relied on Rachel to drop in on our cat every two days. Got excellent, detailed updates and pictures, and my normally antisocial scardy-cat took to her immediately! Definitely someone you and your pet can trust!! Will book again in the future.”
“First time using rover, Michaela was great and I felt like my kitties enjoyed their time while she visited them! Michaela really listened to what I usually do for the cats and learned their personalities. Plus she was very patient with me and when the schedule needed to change after booking, she ensured I got the proper refund without me even asking. 10/10 recommend”
