1. Montana M.

“Montana is absolutely the best! I went on vacation leaving my precious car babies in her care. She took excellent care of them, reporting on each one's behavior so I would know they were okay. She took lots of pictures. She even brought my trash cans back from the curb. Whaaat!?!? She's exceptional and is my go-to from now on.”




2. Betty & Bob G.


“When you meet Betty and Bob you will immediately feel at ease. They willl bring to mind a friend, neighbor or family member (the good, reliable ones!) who you can count on. It's a relief to know our pups are in caring hands when we can't be with them.”


3. Marina C.

“Marina is very trustworthy and excellent with dogs, cats, and all sorts of animals. She took care of my ferret, my bearded dragon, cats, dog and watched over my fish! She really is an animal person and was the utmost professional, can't speak well enough of her services!”


4. Debrani C.

“The cats loved her! I know this because we didn't get bombarded with vocal and upset cats when we came back from our three day trip (which is what usually happens when we leave for just a full day). Debrani was very professional, competent, and friendly. I had zero worries leaving my animals in her care and apparently neither did they. I will definitely use her again next time.”


5. Jennifer P.

“This is mine & my husband’s first time using rover & Jennifer was so great to our London. London is a sweet girl & she gets very nervous when her family leaves her but she soon warmed up to Jennifer. She was so great, she sent pictures, videos & updates on how London was doing & showed that they played together. Highly recommend!”


6. Maria R.
“"I am absolutely delighted to write this review for [Nombre del cuidador], the most exceptional pet sitter I've ever had the pleasure of working with. From the moment I met [Nombre del cuidador], I knew that my furry friend was in good hands.”


7. Amy K.
“Amy is awesome!! She’s very caring and will treat your pets like her own. She has watched and cared for my dogs and cats and I will continue to have her do so if she is available. Highly recommend Amy!”


8. Lani F.

“Lani was great with our 2 little doxies! Great communication and we felt very safe and assured with her dropping in to let our pups out and give them snuggles. Thank you Lani!”


9. Brittany G.


“Brittany did a great job coming to feed my cats twice a day while I was away. She followed all of the instructions well. Most importantly, she was very responsive and sent updates and photos which set my mind at ease. Thank you Brittany!”


10. Ellen H.

“Max and Ruby, our two golden retrievers, loved 💕Ellen! She has such a calming way with animals and they warmed right up to her. We had a quick trip and thought it would be best to keep with the dogs in our home and in their routine. Ellen came over several times to feed, let them out and even played catch! She was very reliable and always on time. Max and Ruby were relaxed and happy when we returned home!”


11. Isabelle F.
“Isabelle is great with pets. I remember that she would volunteer with the human society and spend quality time with dogs. She loves her cat Malcolm.”


12. Vanessa D.

“Vanessa did a wonderful job watching all 3 of my dogs and my cat! She made me feel very comfortable while I was away by sending me thorough updates and lots of cute pictures! My dogs are very high energy and she handled their crazy cooped-up behavior very well! She followed every instruction I left for her and made my first experience with Rover easy and pleasant! I'll definitely be using her services again!!!”


13. Lucia P.
“Lucia Pink and I have been friends for over eight years. I have found her to be an extraordinary dog trainer. She’s helped me with my dog and I’ve seen her in action with the 4H kids and the local dog club kids. She has a real affinity for our four-legged friends and it’s indicative of her kind but firm heart! Rover.com would be lucky to have her!”




14. Paula B.


“Paula is wonderful! She helped us out on very short notice and was incredibly loving to our dog, Loki! Made going out of town much easier. Will definitely be using Paula again!”


15. Tony F.
“Tony currently has an elderly lab named Abby who has had some recent health issues. Tony has cared for her related to those issues in an impressive manner. He is always looking for ways to keep her as comfortable as possible via vet care, adjustments at home, buying booties after seeing she was dragging a leg and injured paws. He has helped me with my elderly dogs and cats with extreme care and interest in understanding their needs. He rescues frogs from his pool! Very caring, intuitive to the animals needs. He will make sure that he understands what the dog/cat animal needs are, follow instructions accurately. He is reliable, responsible.”


16. Michael H.
“Michael watched my precious dog, Jiggy, and my beautiful cat, Lulu, for 10 days in August 2022. Michael treated them like his own and always sent photos and updates of Jiggy and Lulu. They were best of friends. I would definitely recommend his services. Very caring, nurturing, attentive and kind.”


17. Mike S.
“Mike has a natural affinity for animals and has shown remarkable responsibility and care when looking after my pets. He is attentive to their needs, always ensuring they are fed, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention. My dog, who can be quite shy, warmed up to Mike almost immediately. With Mike, I have complete peace of mind knowing my pets are in the best hands. He truly goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy and well-cared for. Mike's dedication and passion for animal care make him an outstanding choice for any pet owner.”


18. Tom L.

“Tom did a great job checking in on my 12 yr old cat. He was easy to communicate with and gave detailed reports on his visits. He came recommend by my regular sitter that wasn't available. It was great to receive the same great service that we were accustomed too!”
