“Aimee was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our pups were happy and having a great time while we were away. She sent detailed daily updates and we came home to 3 very happy and healthy dogs and a very clean house! We couldn’t recommend her enough!”

“Kristina is an angel! She took such good care of my senior dog and our little dog and was able to stay T our home with them, where they’re comfortable. I felt secure knowing they were in good hands while I was on my work trip. She was very communicative and sent us updates every day. I highly recommend Kristina for any pet sitting needs!”

“Desiree did an amazing job looking after our little guy. She met with us prior to watching him in our home and eased his nerves. We look forward to working with Desiree again.”

“Katie was amazing. We had an erratic schedule where we needed her help on and off. That meant many start times and stop times through a short three day stay in Desert Hot Springs. Katie was always on time, totally prepared, and was able to handle our timid, fearful little dog masterfully. Clearly she has experience with animals. The bonus is her great personality and the fact she’s 100% reliable. Would (& likely WILL) hire her again any time we come this way. This was our first time using Rover and if the rest of the dog- sitters are as adept as Katie, we feel like we hit a gold-mine with this app.”

“Janice is the best dog sitter we have had. She took care of our babies with great care. She sent us updates daily. We knew our dogs were in great hands. We would use her again in a heartbeat. I cannot say enough good things about her.”


“Jay is absolutely superb! We have 3 rescue pups, one with some behavioral issues and one who is very old and has special needs. Jay was so amazing she took on our motley crew and made sure our pups were cared for, loved, fed, and exercised. She even helped us with our little girl Roxy's behavioral issues! This was the first trip I had taken in years where I was able to really relax knowing our pups were in the best of hands!”
“Renee is a caring and conscientious sitter. My animals loved her and adjusted to her quickly. I found her very prompt, clear and communicative. Definitely will be booking with her again!”

“Finding a person who is comfortable with a pure breed GSD that is Schutzund trained or essentially a private police dog is no easy task. Then we met Nina first at the park to see how our dog Kao and her would respond and they made an immediate connection. Secondly at our home and again, I was impressed with how relaxed Kao was around Nina. Almost like the dog whisperer. Nina consistently kept us informed even when we trusted her with Kao and I could see from the photos that perhaps, he was having more fun than our own vacation. Nina has a calm presence yet confident. I recieved feedback from the group at Ruth Hard Park who bring their dogs each day and it was extremely positive on Nina I highly recommend Nina for anyone and any dog. We will only use Nina moving forward even that means adjusting our schedule. She's that good. Thank you Nina.”


“Ana Laura took excellent care of my senior dog. I can't leave a big twelve year old with just anyone - Ana Laura did great job administering his meds and patiently walking him. Happy was calm and seemed clearly well-cared for upon my return. She took care of our mid-century home as well. Highly recommend.”

“John was great with our dogs! One is old and clingy while the other is young and standoff-ish, so he had his work cut out for him. He was attentive to their needs and left the house in great shape.”

“We needed a pet sitter quick due to an unforeseen emergency. Kimberly was so communicative with us. She was also patient with our anxious rescue dog and our playful cat. Kimberly is an animal lover through and through. Thank you, Kimberly!”

“Crystal did a 4 night cat and-house sitting job for us She did a wonderful job looking after our cat Winston and sent photos everyday. It was nice to have the peace of mind that our home and fur baby were well cared for while we were out of town. We will be booking Crystal again. Thank you for a positive first experience using the Rover app”

“We so appreciated how thoughtful Taunya was in caring for our dog and 2 cats in our home. We could tell that she put the effort into getting to know our pets and caring for them in the same way that we do. The personal updates gave us peace of mind knowing that our furry family was happy!”
“It's so difficult when you have a new pup in the house: the dog is still getting used to new surroundings and can easily become fearful when the new "hooman" is away for longer than usual. Matthew stepped in for me and Buddy felt immediately comfortable with him. I returned to no separation issues at all. Matthew went above and beyond while I was away. He is very calm and that rubbed off on Buddy. My Buddy just LOVES Matthew!”


“Christine was absolutely wonderful, she was very timely, organized, tons of communication leading up to our trip and that continued while we were gone. She gave us frequent updates with tons of pictures. It was a great experience for us and our 3 animals. Would use her again 100%, I would highly recommend to anyone.”

“Dola was absolutely amazing! We had a last minute cancellation and she was able to accommodate us. This was our first time using Roover and we were not sure what to expect but Dola was so thorough with the care of our 2 pups. She paid attention to every little detail and provided us with updates and photos. She loved on both our pups in a way that we are so grateful for. We highly recommend Dola and look forward to becoming a regular for her if our schedules permit.”
