1. Madeline B.
“Madeline was such a great doggy sitter! I have two pups, both with their own special personalities (one is a little shy and anxious and the other is a little reactive to strangers). She came to do a meet and greet so they would feel comfortable the day of, and she was so patient and sweet with them. She was very attentive and listened to all the details we were sharing with her. She seemed super confident and experienced. For the day of (we were actually getting married!), we did not have to worry one bit about them and she sent us many cute pictures to update us on how they were doing. They looked at ease :) Would definitely recommend her and will contact her again if we ever need a dog sitter. :)”
2. Anais D.
“Anais did an amazing job of taking care of my dog and two kittens while we were out of town. She sent me photos, kept me informed with regular updates of how everyone was doing, and even noticed a potential health issue that I am having checked out. Can’t recommend her enough!”
3. Elisa E.
“Elisa watched my dog Maude when I was out of town for a few days. She was super accommodating and flexible. She sent me lots of pics and updates and it looked like my dog, who has a history of separation anxiety, really liked spending time with Elisa. Elisa was also really great about leaving my apartment in the same condition I left it. I would not hesitate to book her for dog sitting or walking again.”
4. Melina B.
“Melina was an incredible dog sitter for my pup! She is highly responsive, thoughtful, and followed all of my instructions. It was my first time leaving my dog over the weekend using Rover and it was a great experience! My dog became quickly comfortable and relaxed with her and she made sure to send tons of text and photo updates throughout the weekend. Thank you again, Melina!”
5. Ruby J.
“We had a perfect experience with Ruby. She supplied references, gave us updates on our dog's behavior and mood, was thoughtful when housesitting and let us know about anything unusual that she noticed. She sent lots of photos and gave us confidence that our dog was in good hands for our entire absence. We will be rebooking with her for sure.”
6. Nikki N.
“Nikki was awesome with our bassett hound Bernie. She took great care of him and our house while we were gone. He was very happy when we got home and it was like we never left!”
7. Kayla N.
“Kayla was great with communication throughout the stay and updated us frequently. While Archie was happy to have us back, he looked like he was well cared for while we were traveling!”
8. Dea O.
“Dea was a super dog sitter for Nova. She was professional, communicative, smart, and took great care of our home and our dog. We look forward to having her back!”
9. Tea P.
“Tea went above and beyond for our dog while we were on vacation. I think our dog even had her own vacation while we were away given all that they did together.”
10. Sarah E.
“Sarah was easy to communicate with and very responsive! She took great care of our little chihuahua, ensuring she felt comfortable in the space and with her new dog sitter. Sandy gave Sarah lots of kisses and love when we picked her up - she didn’t want to leave! Sarah sent us lots of photos and updates while she was sitting, and it looked like they had a lot of fun together. Fantastic sitter, I will book with Sarah again!”
11. Adrienne D.
“I was very nervous about leaving my dog Cornelius for a week but Adrienne was great! She took good care of Cornelius and the house. She provided several images of him playing and looking happy that set my mind at ease. Would 100% recommend.”
12. Zsa-Zsa R.
“Zsa-Zsa is professional and a delight to work with. I look forward to working with them again !”
13. Rebecca C.
“Rebecca has so far sat for both of my dogs twice, and I can confidently say she did a wonderful job. I have a 4-year-old dog and an 8-week-old puppy, and she came in really open minded to them both being at such different stages in life and not being used to many other people. She's really patient and was willing to help me out during an overnight work shift, which I really appreciate. I felt at ease knowing Rebecca was going to be there which allowed me to not stress over the pups while at work which is a wonderful feeling. I really trust her, and I look forward to working with her again in the future!”
14. Dennis H.
“Dennis was a wonderful house and pet sitter for us while we were away for a week. He took good care of our two dogs and two cats so we could actually have a relaxing vacation, knowing they and our home were in good hands. We will definitely book him again.”
15. Hannah T.
“Hannah was great! I needed a sitter last minute. She responded quickly and was able to come over right away to stay with my daughter’s dog Poppy. Hannah was good with Poppy, who has extreme separation anxiety. She panics when we leave the house. I really appreciated that Hannah was so flexible with our schedule. I will definitely call Hannah again. 🐾🥰”
16. Devyn M.
“Devyn was great! She was communicative and made sure we knew exactly was going on. Our boy, Moose, is shy but she was patient and loving with him even though he was standoffish. We will use her services again!”
17. Gabrielle M.
“We were so pleased with Gabby and our puppies had such a great time. She took such good care of the dogs and our home. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive each time I reached out. Our first time using Rover and could not be happier, as Gabby was wonderful.”
18. Kerri C.
“Kerri was so great with my cat and dog. She sent constant updates and my dog was exhausted when I returned which means she exercised her a lot! Will definitely be re-booking in the future.”
19. Eva H.
“Eva is a pet lover through and through. She has been around dogs and cats her whole life and you can tell in the gentleness as well as the understanding she brings to engagements with furry friends. She is importantly also responsible, detail oriented, and thoughtful.”
20. Caleb C.
“Caleb was thoughtful and attentive with our 1-year old energetic puppy. Our dog immediately loved him and then we got daily updates and knew that Caleb was taking good care of our dog. He house-sat and we will definitely want to have him back!”
