1. Otis B.
“Otis was incredible! He sent many updates, pictures, and kept our apartment so clean it was if no one stayed here! Our dog certainly isn’t the easiest to watch, but we felt comfortable the entire time due to how communicative Otis was. He is well experienced, and someone I recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”
2. Emily N.
“Emily was amazing! She took care of my senior dog and cat while I was away for the weekend and sent me pictures and updates on how each was doing throughout. My senior dog is a rescue and can get anxious when I leave but he seemed to be so comfortable with Emily and was super calm during the weekend. I’ll be using Emily again next time I go out of town!”
3. Alexa B.
“Alexa did a wonderful job taking care of our dog in our home over a long holiday weekend. She was communicative, made sure Beau got his walks and play time, left our home clean and our dog happy. She followed our instructions on everything and asked questions when she wasn’t sure about something. We hope our dog wasn’t too crazy for her, but we would gladly welcome her back! So grateful we found Alexa.”
4. Belicia K.
“Belicia took wonderful care of Anya while we were away for 8 days. She fed and walked her and sent us numerous photos and updates. Anya fell sick during her stay and Belicia took great care of her. We would love to work with her again!”
5. Deven S.
“Deven was professional and responsive from the first time I reached out to schedule a dog sitter. He was great both my puppy and older dog and comfortable providing oral, topical, and injection medications for my dog. Would highly recommend his services and will definitely be using again.”
6. Shakira C.
“Shakira is amazing! I feel like she's part of the family. She did an amazing job looking after my Maltipoo, Dash! She sent plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day. I really appreciate the way she made both me and Dash feel comfortable. Before she left, I had already booked her for another sitting for Dash. She's the best!”
7. Elizabeth D.
“Elizabeth took amazing care of our dog and our home while we were away for a wedding this weekend. She is a great communicator, updated us every day on how our dog was doing, and our dog was in great spirits when we returned! We will definitely ask her to watch our dog again in the future and would highly recommend to a friend.”
8. Nicole R.
“This our first time hiring someone to take care of our dogs, usually we leave them with family. This time the entire family was on a trip so we opted for Rover and feel very blessed to have found Nicole. Nicole is very detail-oriented, communicated perfectly and even sent videos twice a day. We decided to leave the dogs at home instead of sending them to an unknown environment. And she not only walked them. She sat with them and gave them attention. This all became very crucial because it was very hard for me to leave my dogs this time around. One of my dogs had a bit of an eye irritation and she did a great job keeping track of his progress and keeping me updated. We are very grateful for Nicole and will definitely ask for her services again in the future.”
9. Allison J.
“Allison was great with our two pups, as always. Very responsive with updates and leaves the house very clean. Our go-to any time we leave town!”
10. Nico M.
“Nico was wonderful! He stayed in constant communication with us throughout his stay and provided us with plenty of good pictures of Huck. Our dog had a minor illness earlier in the week that required medication and Nico did a great job with making sure Huck took them on schedule every day. He took the time to learn Huck’s quirks, which we very much appreciate!! Will definitely be booking with Nico again!”
11. Margo K.
“Margo did a great job. She was flexible and responsive. She sent lots of pictures and updates of our cats. We returned home after a week-long vacation and the house was in excellent shape. I will definitely use her for house-sitting and drop-in services in the future.”
12. Cristian S.
“Cristian is great. He is very caring and responsible. He took care of our two dogs very well. They love him. One of our dogs didn’t eat well and Cristian made sure he ate his meal. We had meet and great and Cristian took his time to pick up keys and go over the care instructions with us. He sent videos everyday and kept us update when he headed out to walk the dogs. We felt very peaceful during our trip knowing that our babies were in great care. Thank you!”
13. Shiri B.
“Shiri was a wonderful house sitter who took loving care of our two large dogs, our home, and sent lots of photos of our fur babies. Would happily book with Shiri again!”
14. Montserrat J.
“Montserrat was GREAT! She agreed to come over a few days before our booking to meet our squad, which we really appreciated. During her stay, she sent us many updates with tons of pictures! This was our first time using Roover and we were nervous but she quickly made us feel very comfortable about leaving. I would highly recommend asking Montse to watch your fur babies! I will definitely rebook with Montse for our next vacation.”
15. Marisa C.
“Marisa was great! She very naturally got along with my Paulie who admittedly can be uncooperative to say the least. 10/10”

We had no stress about Jax on our vacation and he is looking forward to another visit with Jillian again soon!”
20. Jennifer R.
