“Briana was a great sitter for my cat while I was away for a week! She gave her lots of love and affection and was attentive to her needs and personality. Briana also left my apartment really clean and tidy after staying in it. Thanks Briana! :)”

“It’s obvious that Erin LOVES animals. She took such great care of my two babies while I was out of town for work with regular updates to me so I didn’t miss them so much. She was also very respectful of my living space. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Jade is great! We can’t wait to have her take care of our dog Maya again. Jade was very understanding and accommodating as was the first time we had someone other than family or friends watch Maya. I would recommend her to anyone on Rover.”


“Margaret changed her own plans last minute when we had a family emergency! We are so grateful to her. She takes great care of your home and sends updates and picture of your fur baby. I highly recommended her!”

“Abigail was an amazing sitter. We immediately felt comfortable with her from the moment she met our pup. She had great communication and gave our pup all the love. Would highly recommend to anyone with any type of pet, her background gives her great experience and she is a sitter to be trusted.”

“My animals (2 dogs and a crabby cat) loved Carolyn. In fact she came over a few days after I returned and the were so excited to see her. They definitely got a lot of attention. She sent lots of pictures which I really appreciated and communicated everyday on how their day was going. I appreciated her taking good care of my fur babies.”

“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”

“Jessica was great with our big family of pups and cats! They're rescues and all have their little quirks, but they all loved her! We felt at ease being away from them for five days and will definitely ask Jessica to come back in the future!”

“Emerson was very communicative and shared regular photos of the pets, which I enjoy. He was also very helpful with some unexpected mail deliveries and minor house issues as well.”

“Mary was wonderful staying at my home with my dog Maple. She checked in with pictures and updates and handled some anxiety and accidents Maple had really well. Would definitely recommend Mary!”

“Samantha was so great! We got so many updates and photos of the dogs and was so nice just knowing everything was going well. We would be more than happy to have Samantha watch the girls again!”


“Robert was super accommodating for a short-notice weekend with my pups & cat. He was super communicative and took great care of them all! Would highly recommend Robert!”

“Rachel took care of our two pups and cat for a little over a week, and because we’ve hired her now several times, I didn’t worry at all - even when there were some tummy problems, I knew she’d take the best care. Our pets are super sweet and gentle and the extra TLC she provides is exactly what they need!”

“Olivia did a wonderful job with Tessa and also communicated well with us while we were away House was left clean and nice . Most of all Tessa (our dog) loved her .”

Lydia was great, took our request last minute and was really easy to work with in coming to see the house and meet the pets. Lydia was easy to communicate with on our trip and made it easy to be away. We came home to a well taken care of place and happy pets. We will connect with Lydia again for pet and house sitting.

This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous at the thought of leaving my dog with someone he/I didn’t know but McKenna was the BEST person I could have booked. We did a meet n greet and from the first interaction it is clear she absolutely loves doing this. She is so personable with both animals and humans. All my worries completely went out the window! She provided updates, photos, and communication about anything that came up. My boy had a less than ideal grooming issue crop up and she offered to take him in for an appointment and did so happily! She also left my place super clean, which allowed me to soak in all the time with my dog upon my return. Definitely will be booking her again!!

Finding dog care is usually stressful in itself for us. But a family emergency required us to leave town on relatively short notice, that stress was multiplied. I work from home so our two dogs are used to having someone around most of the time. One is also a bit high-maintenance—slow to warm up to strangers, needs medication, requires frequent potty breaks, and has some incontinence issues (diapers!) due to said meds. Stephanie made the experience as worry-free as possible. She responded quickly to our booking request, and her calm, confident demeanor during the initial meet-and-greet immediately put us at ease. While we were away, she provided frequent updates and photos, giving us peace of mind that our dogs were in great hands. We came home to a clean house and two happy, well-cared-for dogs. I truly appreciated Stephanie’s care and professionalism during a difficult time for our family. While the cost of having someone stay in your home can sometimes feel like a luxury, she gave us one less thing to worry about when we needed it most—and made her stay worth every penny.
