1. Claire S.

“Claire was great. She was great with communication and pictures while we were gone. She kept our home clean and organized. Our pups enjoyed her presence and we would highly recommend her.”


2. Renae W.


“Thanks for hanging out with our pets! It seemed like they had a great weekend and got lots of attention. We appreciated you staying over at our house, and sending lots of pictures and updates.”


3. Angie G.

“Angie did a wonderful job taking care of our Beagle mix Kallie while we were on vacation for two weeks! Kallie is a rescue and very shy but she took to Angie right away which made my wife and I very comfortable with Rover. Kallie stayed in the house during our time away, and Angie would come in to feed Kallie and take her out during the day. Angie also sent us pictures and updates daily. Kallie was very well taken care of and we would gladly work with Angie again. Great job!”


4. Morgan T.

“Morgan was amazing! She was very tentative to our pups and their needs. She kept us updated and sent pictures of our fur babies the whole time! Communication was great! We will definitely book again!”


5. Brooke M.

“Brooke did an excellent job taking care of my two babies! I love her positive energy. She also went above and beyond to deal with an unexpected situation with ants at the house. I highly recommend her!”


6. Sandra C.
“Sandra is my coworker at Camp Ruff It Doggie Day Care and Boarding. She’s a reliable, sweet, patient and admirable person. She’s a joy to be around, she’s very dependable and has a true love for dogs. We always talk about how much we love our work and it’s because of them. Our main priority at Camp Ruff It is safety and customer care. We always want the parents to know how their babies did that day and how much fun they had. She’s always being proactive and smart about how to handle the dogs making sure everyone is comfortable and happy. She treats every single one of them as if they were her own with respect, patience, and most importantly love. When she told me about Rover, she was so excited about it. My hopes are high for her because she is an amazing person to work with. You will not be disappointed!”


7. Jennifer J.

“Jennifer stayed with our Lab mix Hazel for the last week and we were so happy with how things went! Hazel got lots of walks, play time, snuggles and love! She stayed in touch with us several times a day and sent pictures?. Not only did Jennifer take wonderful care of Hazel, but also took care of the mail, garbage, and pet hair - it all made our trip that much more enjoyable! We can’t wait for Jennifer to come back for our next trip!”


8. Melissa E.

“Took great care of Ike! Definitely will try to have Melissa watch Ike again in the future”


9. Stephanie B.

“We absolutely love Stephanie! She spent so much time with my doggies and kept me updated on everything. For the first time since we moved here from MI and going through different sitters, I didn’t find any accidents!! Thank you so much, Stephanie!”


10. Mikey C.

“Mikey was very professional and easy to schedule a meet and greet with. He showed up early for the pet/house sitting. He followed our instructions for our animals perfectly. We loved that he sent us pictures and videos of our pets while we were away. Highly recommend!”


11. Stephanie F.
About: I grew up around dogs. At 18 I began working at Petco where I learned how to care for many different types of animals. During those six years, I became a dog trainer. I have extensive knowledge on puppy training, adult dog training, and senior care. I love all animals, and I can’t wait to meet yours. I am so excited to try this platform out. I work from home so this would be perfect for me. The only times that I would have to leave our pet alone would be at most for an hour or two. I would love to care for pets in my home, but unfortunately, I cannot at the moment because I have a senior dog who is temperamental now that he is older. I will stay in your home and respect it like my own. I will provide loving, reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.


12. Caroline R.

“Caroline kept in touch at least once a day and sent pictures of my dogs. My dogs did have several accidents that I found in other rooms and on my rug a few times. When I got home my dogs had no water and both were extremely thirsty. I did ask her to get my mail daily and put it on the counter, however, that didn’t happen and my mail box was over filled. Overall she did a good job, my little dog seemed a lot lighter because he doesn’t eat when I’m gone, they are both back to themselves today.”


13. Mario C.

“Mario did a really nice job caring for my little cattle dog Lucy while house sitting for me! He was communicative, kind, caring, and followed the instructions I left for my dog and my house. I’ve moved into this area recently and have not been able to find a reliable pet sitter to stay in my home when I am away for work- until now :) I will definitely reach out to Mario again as my top choice. Thank you again!”


14. Nyah R.

“Nyah was so great! She was available last minute and played with my puppy the entire time. She is reliable, very knowledgeable, so nice and my dog really liked her! I would definitely highly recommend her!”


15. Luis B.

“We had a very good experience.”


16. Amanda M.
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have always loved walking them. I am very reliable when taking care of your pups and will love to play, walk, feed, or bathe your pets! I am a college right now, but mainly online. I’m a server in Oswego and I only work 3 days a week there. Tuesday’s (12pm-3pm and 5:30pm-9pm) Friday’s (4:30pm-9pm) Saturday’s (12pm-5pm). I have been on Rover before about two years ago, so I have had many bookings with dogs in the past! I have a fenced yard and have two friendly golden doodles that love company. I have crates if needed, but plenty of space for your pets to play!


17. Nicole P.

“Nicole is amazing! This was the first time I hired someone to watch my dog (11 y/o), naturally I was a nervous about finding the right person. Nicole came by to meet Daisy and had put all my concerns at ease. She watched Daisy for a few days and updated me throughout. If you have any reservations about using a dogsitter -Nicole is definitely the one to call!”


18. Debbie M.

“The dogs love Debbie and so do we! She communicated and sent pics of the pups a few times a day. She took good care of them and our house while she stayed here.”


19. Zack C.
“Zack loves animals and it’s so amazing about taking time to play with them and give them the individual attention they need. All my dogs get so excited when Zack walks in the door because they know it’s going to be a lot of fun and love.”


20. Thomas E.
“Tom has always been my go-to pet caregiver! He has watched my dog, Murphy, on multiple occasions while I have been out of town for the weekend. He lovveesss Tom, and is always excited to see him! This makes me feel much more comfortable going on vacation, knowing that my dog will enjoy his time with him. Tom is one of the biggest animal lovers I know, and this is especially true when it comes to dogs. He has a dog of his own as well, whom gets along with my dog well. If you are looking for anyone to take care of your dog or pets, I would give my highest recommendation to Tom!”
