“Elizabeth was great! We will definitely be choosing her again-it’s always hard to choose a new sitter but she left no doubt that Cricket was loved on and well taken care of while I was on a work trip!”

“Jade is professional, dependable and was great with our Shih Tzu and Weimaraner. She took her time with our babies and we could not thank her enough for helping out on short notice. Will definitely be a repeat customer!”

“Gabrielle was great, I wish I could give more stars! It was last minute as we couldn't take our Dior on our trip, so I was really worried as we had never left her with anyone before. But Gabrielle put our minds at ease while on vacation. She also kept great communication with us!! I would definitely be booking with her again!!”

“Jarad did a great job taking care of our two cats. We asked for daily drop-ins to feed them and scoop the litterbox. He is very mature, friendly, and reliable. While we didn't ask for daily pictures, he sent one anyway which was kind. We had to ask him to go above cat sitting and to bring in our mail as the USPS was not holding it as we requested. He kindly helped us out with that too. He provided A+ service and care and we are very pleased.”

About: I’m a student at UWG, sadly I couldn’t take my dogs with me but I’m hoping rover opens up an opportunity for me to still be around animals! I have pet sit multiple times before for friends but have never signed up for an app, I’m excited to get started! I’m currently in school, but only for around 4 hours a day so I am very flexible and have plenty of time to care for your pets! If I am house sitting, I will walk them through whatever routine is told to me, and be sure to play with them often. I will make sure all of the doors are locked when entering and leaving the house, and make sure all belongings stay safe.
“Angela was AMAZING with my 2 boys!! She went above and beyond with the care, drop in visits and keeping me updated. I will absolutely be booking with her again and have no doubt she will take the best care of any pet she’s in charge of !! Could not be more happy with her service!”

About: I've been pet sitting for over ten years and am trusted by several families in the area! My home is loving, warm, and will provide a safe and happy atmosphere for your pet. I only ask that you are honest about your furry friend. I can’t board pets with behavioral issues, fleas, chewing habits, or that aren’t safe around children. Thank you! I only schedule boarding and doggy daycare services on days that I will be home (unless taking child to school/dropping off, or running a quick errand). My focus is on one family at a time, so I never have pets from multiple homes under my care at once. Your pet will receive the love and attention they deserve. My care is loving, nurturing, and intuitive. I am able to pick up on your pets energy and decide how to move forward from there. Some pets are anxious or excited, and others need space. Regardless of personality and needs, your pet is ALWAYS safe with me.
“Jessica was great with our senior large dogs and super flexible with our schedule. Communication was easy, and we felt totally comfortable leaving our crew in her care. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend Jessica and would happily book with her again!”

“Jacqueline is the only pet sitter and dog walker I trust with my 2 dogs and 5 cats. My two huge doodles absolutely love her and she is fantastic with them. She also did drop-in visits for my cats for the past week while I went on vacation. She wrote extremely detailed notes for each visit and sent me some really cute pictures of my kitties. She did a thorough job getting care instructions for the cats and was always prompt and very communicative with each visit. I am so glad I found such a fantastic pet sitter in my area!!”
About: I’ve helped raise and take care of dogs since I was 10 or so. We’ve had several litters of puppies that we had to raise and get rehomed as well as various animals to include cats, dogs, and smaller animals like guinea pigs and hamsters. Each animal has its own personality and that makes working with them so special. I have flexibility to stop in the middle of the day during the work week to check in on your pet and provide the care needed on a daily basis. I also have open availability on the weekends and evenings to check in as needed. I try to treat each animal how I would like my animals to be treated. They are alive and have personalities that should be tailored to the approach you give the pets. That’s my philosophy.
“Requested service same day within one hour during a storm she came to my house to care for my dogs. Outstanding service 💯 recommend her. Very friendly and easy to get in contact with.”

“Ryleigh and Heather were a great duo to work with! They have calm and easy going personalities and my cane corso and pit accepted them after the meet and greet. I was unsure how long my cane corso would bark for in the kennel before they could be let out and it only took a few barks. They settled right down for them. Communication has been great and they adjusted timing as I needed.”

“Alexis is good at what she does. She always takes good care of my fur baby and takes him on walks. She keeps me updated during the visits as well. Alexis is our go-to dog sitter. Highly recommend”

“Mackynzie was awesome! She communicated well, and we received frequent updates, as well as tons of pictures and videos. She made sure our boys were well taken care of, from playing with them to feeding and bathroom breaks. We felt very comfortable knowing the dogs were in her care and would definitely book with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Lorelei was so great! She stayed with my dog longer than I asked and made sure he got all the exercise and potty breaks he needed. Her pictures looked great and my moody boy seemed to have really loved hey!”

Richmond Hill pet parents share their Rover experiences
Elizabeth has taken care of our Golden Tucker for the past several months, and we couldn't be happier! Recently, I had to travel out of state and leave Tucker for the first time. There had been an issue where the gate wouldn't open to let her in the neighborhood. Elizabeth immediately called me and even waited around the area until the matter was resolved. It was a great comfort to know Tucker was being left with such a caring person. My mother also wanted to share a comment, and it is in the form of a letter to Elizabeth: "Thank you for taking such great care of Tucker! You always arrive with a smile, and I know that Tucker will have a great walk. Also, we know that he is safe with you, and will have fun. Thanks for helping us keep Tucker healthy, and helping us when we went out of state."

Gabrielle was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Spooky! We came home from our cruise to a happy, playful, well cared for kitty and clean litter boxes. She kept us updated, was reliable, attentive, and clearly took great care of Spooky while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our girl was in such good hands. We truly appreciate all of her help and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!
Attentive and fun-loving (which is crucial for Indy)! Went above and beyond even offering to take care of some of the plants in my home. Apparently she has a green thumb with her whopping 150 plants at home. Definitely highly recommend her, especially considering this was a last-minute booking. Thanks Danielle!
