“Marie was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous to leave Brady, but Marie made it so easy! She updated us multiple times a day and was always communicative. She left our house spotless and maybe even a bit cleaner than we left it! We would recommend Marie to anyone!”
“I am so glad I found Dahn to take care of my pups. I’ll say she is fabulous, my pups welcomed her as part of our family, she is very charismatic, my pups felt all good vibes about her. I can’t thank her enough for coming over for a meet and greet before the booking to make sure my pups and I felt comfortable. As a dog mom I make sure a millions times the person taking care of them is trustworthy and She is!!. Definitely book with her. She sent me lots of pictures, and she even took the time to read to them to make them feel calm and they loved it! I’ll definitely take her advice of reading to them. She is very sweet and kind my pups just loved her very much. I’ll absolutely book with her again. You won’t regret leaving your pups in such a good hands. Thank you so much again Dahn.”
“Emily is so sweet and thoughtful and knows how to read the needs and personality of the pup (and owner). She has a real knack for care. Wonderful house sitter and I will absolutely book with Emily again to stay with Mowgli again!”
“Katelyn took great care of our pets (dog and 2 cats) and our house when we went away. She came to our house to meet them and us before our trip, sent us photos while we were away, and left our house very clean. We would definitely use her again!”
“I can honestly say that Max is the best pet sitter I’ve had yet! They were able to accommodate the sit on a bit of short notice, not to mention some unexpected medical needs for my dog. I almost didn’t go on my trip because my dog woke up with an eye infection that required medicine the morning I was supposed to leave. Max’s confidence to give her medicine put me at ease so I could still go. They kept me updated on how my pets were doing throughout my trip and gave them all the love/care they needed. Would absolutely book again and recommend to others.”

“Jordan is fabulous. We had to book a house sitter at the last minute and Jordan responded quickly. We did a meet greet at our home with her and the dogs and we knew immediately Jordan was going to do awesome. She of took great care of our little guys and our house. Jordan is friendly, attentive to the dogs, and super easy to work with. She communicated throughout her stay giving us peace of mind knowing the dogs and our home were being well cared for. We will definitely use Jordan again !”
“Patty really cares about caring for animals. She was easy to schedule on short notice, made sure we met ahead of time to ensure that there was a good fit between her and Zola, and was accommodating throughout the visit. I appreciated all the photos and updates. Feels less stressful traveling when you know your four legged friend is in good hands. Thanks, Patty! Would reccomend.”
“Veronica was wonderful! She played with our pup and took her on lots of walks. We got plenty of update photos and videos. She was really respectful of our home and left it very tidy. We’d be happy to have her again!”
“This was my first time booking a cat sitter through Rover - Jen is phenomenal! She is so kind, and was consistent, reliable, thorough, and thoughtful in taking care of my two cats and home. She went the extra mile by showing care about understanding the cats’ routine, bonding with them, sending updates, and keeping things clean in my absence. It was so nice to trust that the cats were being well cared for while I was away at a research conference, and Jen was perfect with communication/updates. I will definitely be a repeat client of hers!”

The frequent pictures she sent of my boy throughout the day eased any worry and I knew he was being well cared for. Cloud approved and made a new friend😊🤍”
“Sadie did a fantastic job house-sitting my two cats! She definitely knows how to take care of cats, as evidenced by my timid one warming up to her within hours of meeting her! I had total peace of mind while I was away, and I'll definitely be her repeat customer :)”

This is my second time using her for dog sitting and I hope to be able to use her again for dog sitting needs.”
“Katherine was super flexible despite my blunder originally with the booking putting in the wrong address. She sent me frequent updates making sure the dogs were doing well and she helped give Jaeger his meds so the fireworks wouldn't freak him out. I'm sure the fur babies would love to have Katherine watching them again”

Marie was more than I could ask for. I have never used this service before never mind leaving my fur baby with a stranger. Marie went above and beyond. She communicated with me daily and sent lots of pictures. She watered my plants, took the trash out on garbage day and fed our new Beta fish. I will definitely want to work with Marie in the future. I recommend Marie 10/10.
Jen just spent the past week in our home with our puppy. We’ve used Jen in the past and we already have her booked for several additional dates. She is 100% our go-to for house sitting and puppy care. We highly recommend her. Our puppy is always happy and very well cared for, and Jen takes excellent care of our home, leaving it spotless upon our return.
Davonna is AWESOME! She is communicative, punctual, friendly, and trustworthy. My gang enjoyed their weekend with her and she put my mind at ease. I’ve been using Rover for years and I never feel any less anxious when I have to find a housesitter but I will definitely book Davonna again!
Janalie is the best dog sitter around. She gave so much love and attention to our Labrador retriever and has amazing energy from the moment she met the dog. She kept us up to date and sent photos throughout her stay. Our doggo was in good spirits when we got home!
Teddy was absolutely amazing with our kitty! We had just moved to the area and had a graduation to attend over the weekend and were nervous about having to leave our cat after such a big move. Teddy was very kind and easy to communicate with and made sure that our cat was well cared for with play time, treats, and company while we were gone. They were also great at sending us picture updates during their stay. We would absolutely book again!
Melanie house and dog sat for our dog Luna for a few days while we traveled out of state. This was our first experience with Melanie other than a few daily walks and we were extremely happy with the care and communication. We received daily updates and pictures and Luna seemed happy and engaged every day with walks and playtime. Everything looked great upon our return. Melanie was responsive when I messaged her. We will definitely have Melanie watch Luna again and give her 5 stars! Thank you.
