“Emily is once again amazing as a sitter with our little pup. She’s super communicative and sent so many picks. Toast absolutely loves her! I feel so comfortable any time we have to leave knowing Emily will be there.”

“Gabi did awesome with our Rory! She is a 4 month old lab mix that can be quite the handful. Gabi stayed over at our house for 4 days and was able to handle her great :)”

“Charlotte was fantastic. We had a few hiccups and she was beyond helpful. She was very communicative and sent daily updates with pictures. I would highly recommend her to anyone for pet sitting and will definitely use her again!”

“Tina came to our rescue on short notice and we couldn’t have been happier about how the stay went. She was always communicative, detailed and extremely responsible with her care for our Geoff. She is a true master and should be welcomed in any home to care for any kind of pet.”

“Scott took great care of our cat & dog while staying at our home. We reached out to him only six days prior to our trip after our original caretaking plan for the animals fell through. He also made time to come meet us and the pets a few days prior. Much appreciated!”

“The week up to July 4 is probably the roughest time for our Emma…..Erica did a remarkable job caring and consoling during the random fireworks events that take place in the neighborhood..,, more than just a sitter… Erica became a friend ho our Emma thanks Erica”

“Ariana is lovely. She initiated a meet and greet and took charge of ensuring Simba was comfortable with her. She is very accommodating and flexible to respect one’s schedule. Simba felt at home with her.”

“Ryan was an amazing asset while we were away. He is communicative, kind, and truly goes the extra mile—leaving a wonderful impression on both us and our pets (even our cranky rooster!). He asked thoughtful questions and took great care in looking out for our entire household. He’s hands down the best pet sitter we’ve had, and we will absolutely be using him again! Our home was better than how we left it.”


“We have a very sweet but very anxious toy poodle, who is very really slow to warm up to anyone. Before Traci we never left her with anyone who is not family or close friends. Traci did an amazing job, being patient with her and over several days winning her trust. I also really appreciated Traci’s responsiveness, flexibility and resourcefulness. She was ver quick to communicate, frequently updating us and overall giving us a peace of mind. I highly recommend her and will certainly use her help again in the future.”

“Yssis, was wonderful with our 10 month old puppy, Dakota. She house sat for us for a week, while we were at a destination wedding. Yssis texted us regularly with tons of photos and kept Dakota entertained and safe while we were away. She cleaned up after herself and even brought in our mail. We came home to a happy puppy and would definitely hire her again.”

“Madison was great! We felt relief knowing our fur babies were in good hands - she sent a lot of photos, spent quality time with all 3 of our babies and took our dog on lots of walks. Highly recommend!”

“Ida was so great with Mabel and was an excellent communicator with us the entire time. She also was great to host and left our house cleaner than we left it. We will definitely work with Ida again the next time we travel!”

“This was our first time using Rover. We are so pleased with Genesis pet sitting service. She sent us detailed updates twice a day with photos of Carly. Which we loved. This is the first time that I was able to relax while on vacation knowing that my baby was in the comfort of her home and was in good hands. Carly seems a bit sad that we are home and her friend Genesis has let. We highly recommend Genesis for pet sitting! Carly approved!”

“Krissy took great care of Otis while my wife and I were out of town. Regular updates, accommodated his picky eating habits, lots of walks and love. 10/10 would recommend for all pet/house sitting needs!”

“Michael was great. I have 2 dogs, an elderly dog who needs multiple medications and sometimes has accidents, and a 6 month old puppy. Michael continued our training with our puppy, he also helped with the crazy schedule the 2 dogs and kept our house in great order while we were gone for 10 days. I would highly recommend Michael to house and dog sit.”

“Kaylee is a cat whisperer! My cat is afraid of everyone but me (and now Kaylee!) She took to her immediately, following her around, asking for pats, and even slept with her! Kaylee did just as good of a job with my 12 yo Aussie, taking him for walks several times a day and showing him great care. I would highly recommend Kaylee and have already asked for her to come back to sit my pets again!”

Emily is simply the best! She’s so communicative and sends us all the best pics when leaving her with our pup. She goes above and beyond to make leaving your pets for a trip feel so much easier. Our girl Toast always looks like she’s having a blast and loves when Emily comes over!

Susan was absolutely amazing with my pups. She stayed overnight 4 nights at my house. She even let them sleep in my bed with her as that is what they are used to do. Sent pictures and communications. My house was left in perfect order and my pups were relaxed and happy when I returned. I would definitely recommend Susan and will use her again when the occasion allows. I am a very happy camper 😊😊

Branislava is fantastic! She took such great care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. Nova got lots of walks, snuggles, and play time, and we got so many great pictures and updates. And our house was even cleaner than when we left! Thank you Branislava!

Michael was great sitting our 3 dogs in our home! We have small, medium, and large and personalities to match, and Michael managed them all well. He sent pictures and videos daily, which kept our minds at ease while we were away. Our home was left as we found it. We are pleased overall and grateful for Michael's services!

Monica took wonderful care of our fur babies and our home while we were away for a week! We have a puppy and senior dog and Monica was great with both! She even worked on some training with our pup! She provided great communication and sent lots of pictures to reassure us our girls were doing well while we were away. If you are looking for someone you can trust to take good care of your fur babies (and your home) while you’re traveling, I highly recommend Monica. We will definitely be requesting her again in the future!

Fiona was very professional and wonderful to work with. She provided regular updates and worked through our dog having some separation anxiety through extra playtime, going for a run, and extra cuddles. We look forward to working with her again and are so pleased with our first experience using Rover.

This is was our first time booking a house/dog sitter through Rover. Our experience with Tina was perfect. she took very good care of Sammy, followed every instruction, sent periodic updates, and overall went above and beyond. I can't say enough good things about Tina - she clearly enjoys dogs and wants the best for them. Thank you, Tina!

Best cat sitter I’ve ever had! My babies felt loved and safe with her. She’s was in constant communication with me and sent me pics and videos everyday. She was very clean and respectful of my condo. Very considerate and kind person. Would have her move in if I could!!
