“Laura is a wonderful choice if you are looking for someone to watch your pet. She is the only one I want spending time with my pup when I am away. Always goes above and beyond leaving detailed messages and does a great job. Laura should always be your first pick!”
“10/10 would recommend & rebook. Megan was really great with our fur babies as well as keeping us informed while we were away. We forgot to leave the TV on for our pets and she remembered our conversation during our initial meeting, and turned on the TV for them. The peace of mind and care she provided was everything we could have asked for.”
“Theo took such great care of my oldgirl kitty that when I got home, she was curled up in deep sleep. I rarely am away overnight. Miss Tippi is an anxious tiny. To see her well fed and relaxed put me at ease. I would highly recommend him!”
“Heather is a great help! She is so sweet and kind with our little goldendoodle puppy Lulu. She is very responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend her services.”
“Minh was so helpful and watching and checking in with our dogs Rex and Roo. She sent photos everyday and even checked with me about the weather and playing outside. 10/10 would book again!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Alyssa! She was helpful and thorough in the process of orienting her to cat-sit. While we were gone, she sent adorable pictures and videos and provided delightful descriptions of each visit with our cat. My cat can be a bit fractious, and Alyssa definitely understands cat behaviors and how to approach sensitive cats as well as giving meds. 1000% recommend her to anyone with cats or other pets!”
“Christina came to my rescue last minute in a tough situation and has become our weekly walker. I am so incredibly grateful for the consistent help, flexibility, and experience with reactive dogs. Highly recommend!!!”
“Brooklyn is awesome! She is consistent, sweet with my dog, quick to respond and so trust worthy! She will be requested anytime help with our doggo is needed!”
“Quinn was great to communicate with and made the whole process really smooth even when my request was last minute. She gave me updates and took great care of Rocky!”
“My dogs and I had a short term move to Auburn and were fortunate enough to find Mariana. She was easy going and flexible with my often changing work schedule and patient and playful with my crazy dogs. For real. My dogs are crazy and she was so lovely with them. Thank you, Mariana!”
“I highly recommend having Paul watch your family pet. My little Ava fell in love with him. He was thorough in his visits, gave so much affection to Ava, sent photos on walks, playing outside, and just relaxing on the sofa. This was her first Rover experience and it was magnificent. Thank you Paul!”
“Highly recommend Carrie if you need a cat sitter! Carrie did check-ins for my senior cat while we were away for 7 days during Thanksgiving week. I was a bit nervous, as I've never had to leave my cat alone for that long before. The meet-and-greet with Carrie alleviated all my worries! She was wonderful with our cat, and gave him so much love, attention, and play time while we were away. Her update reports were always detailed and lovely to read, and she sent tons of great photos with each report. Everything was clean when we returned home (cat box empty/clean, litter swept off the floor). Carrie was always on time for meet-ups, check-ins, key exchanges etc, and is the perfect person to have check-in on your pet! :) I'll definitely be reaching out to her again next time we need someone to check on our cat!”
“Rose is very responsible. She leaves detailed notes in Rover Card at every visit, providing us with the peace of mind knowing she took good care of our kitties. I sure hope to book with Rose again when we take vacation in the future.”
“Alyssa was so sweet when caring for my baby kitten! I definitely felt like Mini was in good hands with her! And she made sure to send SO MANY cute pics 😇 will rebook with Alyssa again!”
“Loved having Hope care for our pup. She did 4 drop-in visits with feedings, walks. Gave us welcome feedback on the pup, who seemed well cared-for. Hope was easy to work with, friendly & personable, reliable. She even noticed an unplanned delivery & brought it in for us. Would recommend her with no hesitation!”
“Katey was great with my cat Douglas Fur! He took to her right away and now they are fast friends. She was prompt, kind, attentive and easy to work with. I will definitely be using Katey to take good care of Doug in the future!”
About: Have been in animal care team at zoo and aquarium for almost 2 years. I have been taking care of dogs and cats in the past for my family and their friends. I have 7 years old bearded dragon. I used to take care of my family dog; standard poodle! I am currently working full-time educator at elementary school. I worked from 8:15 AM to 3:00 PM. I am available either after school or weekend. Keep my bearded dragon in my bedroom and allows him to free-roaming around my home with supervision. I keep feeding him in time and provide variety of diets.
“We booked at the very last minute due to a late cancellation of our previous sitter, and Brianna was extremely accommodating, and came out for a meet and greet. Our girls immediately took to her, and they were all very well and happy when we got home. I really appreciated the updates about their care as it was going on, and I will ABSOLUTELY hire Brianna again!”
“Pricilla was awesome. She treated my dog like family and kept me in the loop the whole time with photos and updates. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup who was clearly well taken care of. Definitely booking her again next time I’m out of town.”
“Micayla is reliable and very communicative. She checks on my cat when I'm out of town. I always feel that my home is safer when she visits everyday, and I know my cat is well taken care of and well loved when she comes over. We love Micayla, and highly recommend her!”
Newtacoma pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kayla is absolutely fantastic! This was our first time utilizing rover and she made the experience so easy and stress free! She is very sweet, honest and transparent. We would get constant updates and pictures, even bonus tips on our pet. We will definitely contact Kayla again!
This was our first experience leaving our beloved calico, Macy, with a non-family member during a trip. We're so happy it was with Kayleigh. Our normally reserved cat greeted her at our first meeting with ankle rubs, as if she were a family member! Kayleigh kept in touch every day sending several pictures, and she even took care of the ants who invaded Macy's food bowl! We'd be very happy to have her help again on our next trip.
Heather was wonderful, she took excellent care of my two elderly cats and was easy to work with and a great communicator. She followed the care instructions to a tee and kept me updated on her visits each day, sending photos. She even cleaned up their spaces, which she definitely did not need too! I highly recommend and would love to work with her again sometime. Thank you, Heather!
Michael is very trustworthy and he does a great job and gia trust him which is really rare he does a good job with her and he has 100% of my confidence Tia is a hard dog to work with she's got higher anxiety and I'm really happy to find someone that can deal with that I highly recommend him
Fantastic sitter! My cat can be difficult when it comes to taking medication, but Teri handled it with patience and skill. I really appreciated the updates and the care she showed and the additional time she spent playing with my other cat. I’d absolutely book her again and highly recommend her—especially for cats with medical needs.
