“So glad that I found Rover ! Amanda and Isabella we're wonderful and helpful. This was the first time the boys had them for consecutive days and nights and they did a great job! I loved the communication the pictures the kindness and the patience....great service and care.”


“While this first time we used Patrick for care our our sweet Pittie Chester was brief, Patrick was great! Our meet and great was simple and Chester was comfortable with Patrick from the start. Patrick was great at communicating with me, he made sure Chester was as comfortable as possible with all the 4th of July noise and offered to pick up outside after him. I really appreciated how easy the entire process was even when I had to change plans last minute with him! It is obvious Patrick is great with animals and I will definitely be using him again for care for my very particular fur baby!”


“Desiree was fabulous with our rescue pup, who is a very nervous girl indeed, and our rescue cat, who is the consummate international man of mystery when it comes to hiding out.. I recommend her without reservation!”


“I just wanted to give a HUGE shout out to Andria. I’ve never used rover and was so worried to find a perfect fit for my sweet but HIGHLY energetic boy. And man was I glad Andria walked into my life. My dog is WELL taken care of and she makes an effort to make sure that he is played and loved while I’m at work. I wish I would have done this sooner. Blue loves her and it makes my days so much easier knowing she’s coming over and going above and beyond for us.”



“Suzanne was very nice, punctual and I had complete confidence in her. This was a long time away and the first time I’d left my cat for so long. Suzanne sent me photos and reassured me all was well. And it was. With my cat, with my condo and thus with my trip. Thanks so much. I will certainly ask for her again.”


“Colleen did an Excellent and detail attention to my cats, timing, activities with them, and duration of each visit exceeds my expectations! I will definitely look for her next time.”


“Bob has been doing weekly home visits for our dog for over year now! He has never missed a visit and is very reliable. Our pup loves when he comes to visit, I would recommend him to anyone!”


“katy was so great with our two dogs. she had great communication and notes with photos so we knew what they were up to during the check-ins. she's very sweet and i can tell she really cares for the animals she cares for!”


About: Trustworthy, attentive, and pet obsessed! I treat your pets like they are my own and ensure they are happy, safe, and loved while you are away! I work a normal 8am-5pm Monday through Fridays so I am available for evening walks or pet care. I am also available on Saturdays and Sundays. I always put your pet first and follow instructions on how you like things done. I have a dog with allergies so I understand certain foods can only be given in certain cases. I am very trustworthy and look forward to helping you and your pet.

“Rachel did an excellent job with Monarch. Rachel kept me up to date and took pictures. Rachel took good care of Monarch, played with him, walked him, gave him his meds and fed him. This was my second attempt at home visits while away with Rover and my first went really bad. But Rachel has restored my trust and I will definitely use her services again.”


“As a first time user of the app, I was a bit anxious but Gabrielle helped so much by sending updates everyday as we were away on vacation. She was on time and consistent. Will rebook again in the future!”


“We have used Toran several times. Our dog, Oliver, took to him immediately (Oliver is not thrilled when first meeting brew people). Communication is excellent, two thumbs up!”


About: Since being a little girl I have had many pets. I’ve taken care of parrots, bunnies, dogs, and cats which have given me so many wonderful memories! Taking care of pets and showing them love is the thing I do best! I work from home the majors of the time so I have plenty of time to play and care for your pet. My dad and my teenagers also love playing and caring for our little friends and gives them loves of love! I have a big house and a huge yard for you pups to play around and a small shi tzu to keep your pup company.

About: Hello all! My name is Ariel, like the mermaid :), and I have two years of experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from energetic dogs to independent cats. No matter the type of pet, I’m dedicated to ensuring they receive the love, attention, and care they deserve while you're away. I love animals with my whole heart so it was a no brainer to naturally gravitate towards Rover as not only a form of extra income, but a way to interact with them more regularly. I take pride in being highly attentive to each pet's unique needs, whether it's going for long walks, providing playtime and exercise, keeping meal times consistent, or offering snuggles and companionship. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’m committed to following your care instructions closely, including any special dietary needs, medication routines, or any other specifics. I also provide a google form before every booking to ensure we tailor your preferred method of care to all of your pets' specific needs! I may have only two years of experience, but I approach each pet with the same level of care and responsibility that I would for my own. You can expect regular updates and photos, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I look forward to meeting your furry (or feathered, or scaly) family member and providing them with the best care possible! I currently work remotely, which means I have the flexibility to provide your pets with the love and care they need without the restrictions of a typical 9-to-5 schedule. Because I work from home, I’m available during the day to give your pets extra attention when they need it most. Welcome to your pet’s home away from home! I offer in-home pet sitting at my spacious, pet-friendly house, where your furry friend will have plenty of room to relax and play. Our lower-level den is a large, comfortable space perfect for pets to explore, stretch out, and feel right at home during their stay. Your pet won’t feel lonely here—my two friendly cats love having new companions around and are happy to provide some extra company! I make sure every pet gets the attention, love, and care they need while staying in a safe, cozy environment.
