“Always a great time my babies have with Albert. He ea extremely communicative and sending notes, videos and pictures. Always takes care of my dogs extremely well.”


4. Penny G.

“Penny single-handedly saved our Thanksgiving yesterday. She stayed at our house with our sweet Jackson for the entire day, so we could go be with our family without worrying about him being home alone and sad. He was happy when she arrived and he was still happy when he called it a night. Penny was wonderful about communicating with us throughout the day, including sending several pictures to reassure us even more that our boy was having a great time. We will definitely be using her for future pet-sitting needs!!”

7. Selen E.

“Selen went above and beyond taking care of my pets. She was thorough and consistent. She sent lots of pictures and updates which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away for a whole week. She also took very good care of my home and left things super organized and clean. Definitely recommend booking her!”

10. Makenzie S.

“I couldn’t be happier with the job Makenzie did for us taking care of our precious doggies. She understood that they are like our babies and treated them accordingly. She stayed the night with them, walked them and fed them. We would definitely hire her again in the future. Best dog-sitter!!! I never leave my dogs with anyone, but we had an emergency and I glad we ran into Makenzie on Rove!!”


11. Diana S.

“Diana was amazing. Came on time and took care of my baby who got spayed a few days back. She gave her the medicine on time and was sending me constant updates.”


12. Megan O.
“We have had Megan in our home to care for our 3 large dogs and she was exceptional. We had never left them with anyone before and had all the jitters. Our dogs had several walks, dog park adventures, LOTS of cuddles and we got picture and video updates throughout her stay. It made us feel like we could rest easy and enjoy our vacation. Our house we good as new when we returned and our pups as happy as ever. I would recommend her over and over again, and not to mention she is sweet as pie.”


13. Roxana B.

“Amazing care of my dog! Highly recommend!”


14. Lidia A.

“Lidia was perfect for my 3 weeks away in Asia. I have a senior Shih tzu and need someone who can stay in my house so that it is most comfortable for my aging dog. Lidia sent me photos and videos almost daily and my sweet Lulu looked so happy with her temporary mom that she became Lulu’s step mama! Lidia also has a small senior dog that stayed over and kept Lulu company. The two of them together were adorable. I will continue booking Lidia. She was more than what I imagined. My time away was completely stress free knowing my baby was happy and cared for.”


15. Joanna C.

“The absolute best. So thoughtful and you Will feel like you have family taking care of your babies. She’s also so responsive and will send you updates all day long. She is going to be my permanent Godmother to my little fur baby!!”


16. Jacquelyn N.

“Jackie is absolutely phenomenal—I cannot recommend her highly enough! My dog lovvvveedddd her and her dog, Coco (which is saying a lot, because my dog usually doesn’t like other dogs). Jackie is incredibly organized and accommodating. I felt completely at ease leaving Roo in her care while we traveled abroad, even with Roo’s medical needs. She sent us daily pictures and was always communicative. We loved her and will 100% be reaching out again in the future!”


17. Shelby H.

“Shelby was very responsive to my texts and instructions. The dogs and cat were very content in the pictures she sent and they warmed up to her quickly as they slept on the bed with her that night. She was very respectful of our place and it was as clean as we left it. I would definitely call Shelby again to care for our animals in our house.”


18. Heather B.

“Great experience as a first time rover user. Heather is amazing! She took great care of our kitties like they were her own and we enjoyed the daily updates/photos. Highly recommend :)”


19. Arianna C.

“Arianna was our housesitter, and we were extremely pleased with her. She took excellent care of both my house and my dogs, consistently sending updates and keeping me informed. I felt very at ease and confident knowing she was looking after my pets. I highly recommend her and would hire her again without hesitation.”


20. Diti D.
