“William has a very calm, patient energy that put our anxious little dog at ease almost immediately. He was very communicative before and throughout the dogsitting stay, and we were so happy knowing that our pet was comfortable snuggling with him at home. Thank you!!”
“Helen is so sweet and trustworthy! Our pup had never stayed with anyone before, so we were anxious but she immediately put our mind at ease. Our house looks cleaner than we left it and our pup looks happy. We’re so grateful! Thank you so much Helen!!”
“Tyler is one of the best Rovers I have ever booked! He followed all of my care instructions and kept me updated on how the dog was doing. The photos he sent me made me feel at ease. I will definitely book him again!”
“Scott was great! So thorough in setting up house sitting with my senior dog. Awesome communication and my house is so clean and well-cared for. Thank you for the tomatoes from your garden as a welcome-home gift! That was so thoughtful!”
“Kayla was fantastic! We received constant updates and could really tell our pup and home were loved and taken care of. I highly recommend Kayla, and will be using her services in the future.”
“Shannon was awesome! She took great care of our new puppy and our cat, kept the house in great shape, and communicated clearly throughout the weekend. We felt completely at ease knowing everything was in such good hands. Highly recommend her.”
“Chardonay and Ben are officially added to my list of dependable house and dog sitters! They took care of my two dogs, Fernando and Dolly, at my house while I was away for 4 days and I could not be more pleased. First and foremost, both the dogs were obviously well cared for and I received photo updates. From the get-go, Nando and Dolly took to Chardonay and Ben right away, and I felt reassured and could tell they were at ease with caring for dogs. Second, the house and yard were in immaculate condition when I returned. Seriously, spotless. Third, they are just super nice and great communicators both off- and online. Highly recommended!!!”
“We’re so pleased with the care that Serena provided for our two pups while we were out of town. We have two spunky weenie dogs, one of which is disabled. Serena took great care and provided regular pupdates which allowed us to fully relax on our trip knowing our pups were in good hands.”
“Dey was a fantastic house sitter, so easy to work with, and took great care of our dog. Not only was Dey super responsive, but I think my house was cleaner than I left it.”
“Darlene took great care of our Bella n Scout. Older dogs with separation, gunshot, firework and thunderstorm issues, they were in very competent and loving hands. We will be rebooking in the future.”
“Maxwell stayed with my huge dog for a week and, as usual, was incredible, reliable, communicative about everything, quick to respond, flexible, understanding, and most importantly, so very wonderful to my dog :) She stayed through a storm and I was able to not worry at all about him. 10/10”
“I booked Sparkle for watching my pups while I was on a family vacation. She did a phenomenal job, I got lots of picture updates with happy and calm puppers. When I got home, my apartment was cleaner than I left it! Communication was stellar from beginning to end. Would definitely book Sparkle again :)”
“River was great! Very communicative and happy to send pictures/updates throughout. She generously accommodated some scheduling snafus between us, and additionally was happy to come meet him before the trip to ease into things. Importantly, she was happy to ask questions as needed. Our dog requires patience and exhibits some odd (charming) traits, and she was happy to learn how to accommodate a dog like that and get to know and meet his needs. While our dog was happy to see us, he wasn't overly relieved we were back, either :)”
“Michael was wonderful with our two senior dogs. He kept in constant communication with us and sent us lots of videos and pics. He took great care of our house as well. We hope to work with him again!”
“This is the second time Ethan has stayed with my 2 doggos for a close to a week. They both love Ethan, and were happy to have them stay (well, Percy is really only happy when I'm home, but he was as happy as he GETS when I'm not around). Ethan kept my garden alive for a week during August and the house looks as good or better than when I left it. We will happily have Ethan back again the next time I go out of town.”
“They had such an amazing attention to detail. Eli went above and beyond for my dog and cat, with extra play time and lots of cuddles. So lucky to have connected with them.”
“Meagan was great! We had regular updates and lots of pictures of a well cared for pup. Communication was consistent and would be happy to have her come again and recommend her to others!”
Old Town-Chinatown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Carina is an incredible person who absolutely adores animals. She gives alot of her energy and time in ensuring that my cat feels loved and secure while I’m away. My cat has special medical needs and I never worry that she is receiving her eye drops on the correct schedule. Mostly, I love coming home to a cat who is slightly disappointed when I arrive home because she’s been so well cared for by Carina!
Yana is such a great sitter! Came through last minute (thanks again!) and was incredibly professional, communicative & thoughtful. Our puppy warmed up to her right away, which is always a good first sign. Super excited to have her help again, I couldn't recommend her highly enough.
Highly recommend!! So happy we met and found Emiline😊 she sent the most wonderful and detailed updates on our dog. She also kept up with his schedule and left the house so clean. I didn’t worry about our dog once. We will definitely be booking her again. Thanks for everything!
Ashlyn was great! She was super communicative and punctual. I had a VERY last min overnight sitting request and she was as on it no problem. She left my home clean and tidy and took excellent care of my old giant breed pup. I would totally recommend her. Thanks Ashlyn!
12/10 – Sparkle is the house sitter everyone wishes they could find. ✨ From the moment we met Sparkle, we knew our home and pets were in exceptional hands. She went far above and beyond anything we expected from a house sitter. Not only did she take impeccable care of everything, but she also gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Sparkle is reliable, communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive to detail. We received regular updates, photos, and check-ins, which made it easy to relax knowing everything was being handled so well. Our home was spotless when we returned—honestly, it may have looked better than when we left. What truly sets Sparkle apart is the genuine care she brings to the job. She treats your home, pets, and routines with the same respect and attention she would give her own. It’s rare to find someone so trustworthy, professional, and kind all in one package. If you’re considering hiring Sparkle, stop looking and book her now. She’s the kind of sitter who becomes your first choice for every future trip. We would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for outstanding care and complete confidence while they’re away.
TL;DR: Capable, punctual, reliable, communicative. Noah made me feel very at ease leaving my babies. My previous sitter retired and I had to do the challenging task of finding someone new. I have a small terrier who is easy. But, I have a 92lb mastiff puppy who’s afraid of everything and very strong. He made great efforts to get in her good graces. I was initially concerned how she’d react to a male but he was by far the quickest to earn her trust of all the interviewees. He stayed at my place for 4 days and 3 nights and when I returned, my babies seemed healthy and happy and no worse for the wear. Aside from taking great care of the pups, Noah was communicative, flexible, and pleasant to work with. He left our house it perfect condition. I highly recommend him with the exception that I don’t want to have to compete for his time!
We had several schedule changes leading up to our dates, and she was incredibly accommodating and flexible throughout. Communication was prompt, clear, and professional every step of the way. We really appreciated how easy she made everything and would happily book again! Pretzel will be thrilled to go for a run with Catherine.
Emily looked after our one year-old puppy for a couple days while we had to go out of town at the last minute. Murphy seemed happy and content when we got home and the house was in great shape. Emily also looked out for packages that got delivered and helped bring those in. Thank you so much!
Anna was a good communicator, asked great questions, and took good care of both my pup and my home. My border collie, Alsea, is super high-energy and Anna seemed to handle it well. The house was clean and Alsea was tired (in a good way) and well-adjusted when I got home. I will definitely call Anna again for future pet sitting needs!
