“Dee did a wonderful job staying with all my animals, spending so much time with them, sending many photos, and providing updates each day with how they were doing. I definitely hope to rebook with him in the future.”

“Maggie did a great job taking care of my 6-year-old heeler Reggie at my home while I was away for a few days. The house was in great shape when I returned and Reggie was happy. Communication with Maggie was great and prompt before, during, and after the house sit. I will definitely be seeking her services in the future.”

“Victoria was great with my pup. She sent pictures throughout the day, took her on a long walk and out to go potty. She was attentive and loving and willing to work on the crate training we are doing. Will definitely use her again!”
“It was clear our babies really liked Presley, whenever we did video chat or through pictures we could definitely tell and this made being away much easier, we will be repeat clients, thank you Presley.”

“Tiffany is a very kind and considerate individual. She did an amazing job house sitting for our 9 week old puppy, she was patient, paid attention to detail, remained communicative the whole time (sending cute pictures throughout her stay), kept our house perfectly clean (even making her bed when she left) and we knew our dog was in great hands! She has a clear love for animals and I would highly recommend her for any of your pet needs. Thanks Tiffany!”

“Chesnie was very professional. On time, great communication, and her love for animals is obvious. She was great with Sadie and made her feel comfortable very quickly. Definitely recommend!”

“Yelena was great! She was amazing with our pups, especially our Marlo who has a ruff background. She left the house cleaner than when we left and she was great about keeping us updated since this was our first time using rover and we were nervous about our babies! Will 100% be using Yelena again(:”


“Great first-time experience with Victoria. Starting with the meet-and-greet and then the evening of sitting Lulu, the experience was pleasant, comfortable, and seamless. Victoria has lots of enthusiasm and went out of her way to entertain Lulu, which isn’t the easiest thing to do when she’s waiting for our return. We will definitely hire Victoria again.”

“Having two very energetic and playful Jack Russells can be a challenge when you work full time. Gretchen spending time with them for a potty/play break mid-day is making an obvious impact on their need for exercise and freedom! Working with Gretchen has made a huge difference with my two boys.”

“Marnesha was awesome w our 3 pups—they loved her right away. She has great attention to detail—kept track of all of their quirks—and an easy-going, confident vibe. Highly recommend!”

“Madison was truly a breath of fresh air. She's dependable, she was great with my dog, and she kept me updated as the days went by. I would 100% ask Madison to come back when the need arises. Wish I could give her 10 stars!”

“Wow what a wonderful couple that took amazing care of my hard to trust you Australian shepherd and my sweet kitty!! I don’t want to trust anyone else but these 2 to house sit again and again!”

“Excellent sitter. She took care of my 6 animals while I was away and I came home to a clean and happy home. Sent updates and photos regularly. Will definitely book with her in the future.”

“Alora was wonderful! She sent pictures every day to let me know how Gwen was doing and when my flight was delayed she was more than willing to stay to make sure Gwen would still be cared for. I would absolutely recommend her and use her again!”

“Laurie was wonderful. She was responsive to all communications, on time, kind, and courteous. We will absolutely be using her again in the future and I highly recommend her.”

“Michelle was amazing. If we could leave her a 10 star rating we would. She sent us morning checkin text messages which included photos of all three of our animals. She stayed at our house over night while we were out of town. She followed all three separate directions for each of our animals. Michelle also asked questions to confirm she was caring for them correctly. We will be using Michelle again!!”

Poets Square pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sara B took wonderful care is senior dog Sparky, who can act like a puppy. She sent pictures of Sparky doing her favorite things: walking her favorite route, fetching a ball and cuddling. Sara even took care of a major chore: Sparky is paper trained. I would highly recommend Sara B for her excellent social and emotional contact with 9 1/2 year old Sparky, the dachshund and lab mix who is young at heart. Thank you, Sara B!

Michelle was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met her, we knew she would take fabulous care of all of our pets. She has wonderful energy, is friendly, calm, and responsible. We have a variety of animals - dogs, ferrets, snakes, lizards, turtles, a chinchilla ... and Michelle was up for the challenge! She was a great communicator and sent us many photos, videos, and texts, updating us about our babies every day. It was really nice to be able to relax on vacation, knowing our pets were well cared for. And bonus: we came home to a really clean house! We will definitely be calling her in the future.
I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! From the start, Ella was professional, communicative, and clearly had a genuine love for animals. Thor has been having a lot of anxiety lately, but felt comfortable and safe with Ella while I was away. I really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and little notes about how Thor was doing—it gave me so much peace of mind! I was so relieved to came home to a happy and relaxed cat! Also, everything was exactly as I left it and she even washed the sheets for me which was so helpful since I got home very late. I would absolutely recommend Ella to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive cat sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Annalyn was excellent with communication before and during our scheduled appointment and very proactive about coordinating access where we were staying. She came prepared with special treats for Jax and a great attitude. I would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their fur family member.

We feel so lucky to have found Stephanie. It was the first time we were leaving our dog at home with a dog sitter and we were nervous about how our dog would do, but Stephanie has such a calming presence and we immediately felt at ease with her. We booked a couple walks beforehand so they could get to know each other, and so when the day came Pepper was excited to see her. We received lots of updates and pictures and we are so grateful for the love and care she gave to our dog!

Our dogs loved their time with Kevin! Kevin was particularly fantastic with our younger dog with a lot of zest for life, he got plenty of playtime, and even learned a new trick under Kevin's care. We would definitely love to have Kevin housesit and care for our dogs again.
We’ve had Abby watch our pup multiple times and have nothing but wonderful things to say about her! Our dog absolutely loves Abby and that gives us such peace of mind. She is responsible, takes great care of our house when we’re gone, and loves our dog like he’s her own. We cannot recommend her enough. She is the best
