“Alexander was absolutely wonderful. This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous at first. I have a Great Dane and she is my animal child so, like any pet parent, you want the best for them. My dog was very hesitant at first because she was on guard and protecting her home. I left treats at the door just in case. Alexander was so patient with her and feed her treats to gain her trust. As the days went on, the "check-in" photos made my heart smile. I could see London letting her guard down her guard and that was all because of how sweet he was. I will certaintly use him again!”


“Sadie was amazing! She took such great care of my cats and they absolutely loved her! She gave one of m cats her FIP meds no problem. I always got the best photos at the end of each visit. 10/10 recommended!”


“Regan has been walking my dog for months! I love having her. During that time my puppy was just 12 weeks old when we started and she’s been so flexible along the way as my puppy learned & grew. Thanks Regan!! 10/10 would recommend!”



“Dmitra was wonderful with our cat, Lily! Very easy to communicate with and provided lots of cuddles while we were away. We hope to use her services on future trips.”


“Cori was super responsive on short notice, generous with her time/updates, and snuggled our big cat like he was her own! Thanks so much for taking care of him while we were away!!”


“Brooke was a big hit with our dogs Moose and Nina. She dropped in on time, gave them tons of pets and treats and delivered meds with ease. Loved having her and hope to schedule again soon.”



“Natalie took excellent care of our cat Milo while we were away. She was very detailed in her updates and even brought in a package that was delivered in our absence. I will definitely use Natalie again!”


“Natalia is by far the best person I've had to help w Vito!! Excellent communication and truly cares about animals ! Couldn't ask for someone better ! Thank you so much!!”


“Linnea is the real deal! She did drop in visits for our almost two year old pittie Lucy and I could not have asked for a more capable and professional person for the job. An added bonus is that she loves to teach dogs new commands in addition to caring for them and showing them love. Linnea was spectacular and a high recommend!”


“Lauren is an amazing sitter! She dropped in on our pup for 5 days and took great care of her as well as keeping her company with snuggles and her toys! She was on time every day and followed all instructions we left for her. I’d recommend Lauren to anyone!”


“Ben was such a meticulous dog walker and care giver. So professional and very sweet to our girls Frankie and Lola. He gave thorough reports and pics. They proved to be a handful in that they had some separation anxiety and he had to deal with some issues but he was experienced and gentle throughout. I was super impressed and would highly recommend him.”

“Christy is always so wonderful with Ginger. I am always nervous leaving him alone, but knowing she will be visiting is very comforting. I know he will be taken care of.”


“My cat is 3 years old had a different pet sitter for over two years and got used to her a lot so I was worried how she would react around a new person. She warmed up to Kirsten fast. Kirsten always sent me updates (I was away for a week) and took care of my baby. When I came back home I felt my cat acting as usual and happy. I am also happy she found a new friend to hang out with when I am away!”

North Shore pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alyx is the absolute best! I always feel so comfortable leaving our cats in her care, and she really goes above and beyond with her visits and updates. It means such a lot to have that peace of mind when we're out of town to know that they are in such good hands 😊

Cindy was amazing! She went above and beyond for my two cats and gave detailed updates, along with pictures and videos, every day during her visit. She also brought toys to keep them active, scooped the litter, and cleaned the litter area before my return! I am so glad I was able to have that peace of mind while I was gone knowing my cats were being well taken care of :)

Brandy was awesome to book! When my travels plans came together last minute, brandy made herself available on quick notice, and with a lot of flexibility. I really appreciated the thorough updates and photos while dropping in on my cats. I was delighted to return home knowing my cats were so well loved and cared for while I was away!
