“Ignacio did an amazing job! I have 6 pugs with very different personalities and they all loved him! He did a check in with them at my home while we were away and everything went great! He was attentive and paid close attention to detail. This was my first time using rover and I’m glad we got him to look over our beans. I will definitely be booking with him again”
“We’ve used Michael several times and our cats love him. We have a couple with special diets and he’s always made sure to give them their correct meds and food. I could not recommend him highly enough.”
“Allison was great! I booked her very last minute, and she still made time to come over to do a greet and meet. She’s clearly a dog lover, and our pups instantly fell in love with her. And very affordable rates! 10/10 would rebook in the future!”
“Jessica was AWESOME and came through for me on a short notice! She was punctual and sweet! Quick response and easy to communicate with! My pup was taken good care of and got the much needed exercise! Will continue to book with her!!!”
“We had to fly out for a three-day trip on very short notice. We have two cats: a 13-year-old diabetic orange cat who we call our "love sponge," and a thee-year-old lever, mischievous tortie. Morgan understood the assignment. She had not given insulin to a cat before. I showed her how to do it, left written instructions, and all insulin doses went well. The cats were happy and healthy when we returned. My diabetic cat had a veterinarian appointment when we returned, and his glucose and neutrophils were within a good range.”
“I would highly recommend Allison to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter! She took great care of our cat for an entire week. She stays in constant communication and is really thoughtful.”
About: As a dog owner and someone who has been around dogs for as long as I can remember, I truly believe they are our best companions who stand by us through thick and thin. Their unconditional love and unwavering support bring us immense joy and comfort. My schedule works perfectly for me, as I have a day job that allows me to be available in the afternoons and evenings to spend time with some furry friends. I treat them as if they are more than just pets, ensuring they feel truly special by showering them with extra love and attention. I focus on creating a joyful experience, making sure they enjoy both my company and the services I provide.
“Highly recommend JP! JP took great care of our pups and was dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. It gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I would absolutely book with JP again.”
“Mel was great! Very attentive to my baby’s care instructions and sent lots of pictures. She’s a shy kitty but warmed up to him so quickly. Definitely recommend!”
“As always Odalys was amazing with my kitties. She went out of her way to learn their personalities and followed through with all directions. So thankful for her attention to detail and focus on ensuring my cats were happy!”
“Ericka clearly loves animals and took great care of our girls. She didn't have to, but she brought them out for day trips beyond the minimum. She also took great pictures.”
“Very grateful for the care Sara provided! I can be a bit of a helicopter mom with tons of instructions but Sara handled it great! I can tell my boys loved hanging out with her cause they were exhausted when I got home!”
About: My name is Alexis. I’ve had pets my entire life and for the past three years, I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I have plenty of time to play with your puppy! I currently work part-time and have a lot of free time on my hands for the summer. I have a fenced yard and one older dog aged 13 years named William he’s a schnauzer a family dog and is very friendly .
“Charlotte dropped by our place to take care of our kittens while we were away and was wonderful with feeding, taking care of litter, and making sure the kitties were happy!”
“We had a great experience with Anna dropping in to take care of our dogs. Excellent communication. She even stopped by beforehand to meet our pups. We would highly recommend Anna and plan to use her pet sitting services in the future.”
About: I have always been the go-to person for many of my family and friends to go and feed the dogs or hang out with them. I grew up with dogs and always understood cues on when to give space or when they needed something! I adopted my dog almost two years ago and immediately started dog walking with her and later did basic training. At the moment, I work part-time from 1:00-6:30pm. My mornings are free during the week and I try to stay available for weekends. I am more likely to accept a new request with at least a week advanced notice, I will try to be flexible if that is not possible. In other pet owners home, I will make sure to follow any guided directions or precautions in order to ensure trust and safety in the home environment. In my home, I keep areas clean and free of anything harmful to dogs. I throw toys away that are damaged or could cause harm because of damage. I give lots of enrichment through feeding games, training inside and outside, and toys that allow her to use her brain! I make sure she eats well and drinks plenty of water while getting lots of outside time!
“Desirae was professional and prompt in her two drop ins with my pup. Excellent communication and detail oriented. I look forward to utilizing her services in the future and highly recommend her to Rover users.”
“Daisy was the Absolute Best sitter I’ve had to date!! She sent me updates kept me in the loop the whole time.. I can’t say enough about how awesome she was to my babies .. I will use her again!! Great job!! 🐾🙌”
Palm Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hydi is the best! I scheduled Hydi for meals & check-ins over several days that I was out of town. I didn’t have service for a large portion of my trip but I was confident my pups were in the right hands & I was right! They love her so much, like they’ve known her forever and there were no major events which they are fully capable of 😄 So glad and relieved(!) to have found Hydi & the pups are excited for next time 🐾
I booked them last minute, and they were absolutely wonderful! They were incredibly sweet with my dogs and made me feel at ease right away. Communication was excellent they kept me updated and even sent a cute video of my pups playing in the yard. I could tell my dogs were happy. I would definitely book them again!
Ellie was fantastic while watching our little Jalapeño!. She was very communicative and had no problem working out the complex building. Our kitty didn’t seem to miss us too much when we got home so I know it was because Eleanor gave him lots of play time and loving while we were gone. She sends lots of pictures and makes sure he’s eating, it’s great to know Jalapeño is being well cared for on our busy trip, he was in perfect hands!! I would absolutely recommend Ellie 10/10, she will work with you and your schedule and your pets needs. Jalapeno already can’t wait for Ellie to come back again!
