Jenevieve Y.

“Jenevieve went above and beyond in caring for my dog. The regular check-ins and thoughtful pictures eased my worries when my dog started having separation anxiety. Her last-minute accommodations to handle that, genuine care and thoughtfulness truly saved my trip. I have never had a better experience with someone watching my dog. I highly recommend! Thank you so much, Jenevieve!”


Monica D.

“Monica was amazing! She visited and cared for our dog while we were in town for a race. She is very professional and loving and we couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for our big baby boy! ♥️”


Kiara M.

“Kiara did an amazing job with our kitties while we were away for a few days. She was an excellent communicator, kind and very easy to work with, and our cats took to her immediately (even our suspicious younger one!). We have an older cat with some medical needs and Kiara put our minds fully at ease with her extensive experience fostering and caring for numerous animals. I would highly recommend her!”


Tanya H.

“Tanya provided Dasher with an excellent break from a long day in his kennel. We came home to a happy, content dog! We appreciate Tanya’s willingness to spend time outside with him.”


Jessica D.

“I don’t have a dog or a cat, but Jessica still did a great job taking care of my bird and fish! Appreciated all the updates and pictures while I was gone. Would definitely have her sit for me again.”


Brad C.


“We needed a drop-in visit for a single day with only a couple days notice. Brad agreed to do it. He met with us and our dogs prior to the day of the visit and took detailed notes and got to know the boys. He sent us photos and a detailed report of the visit. We were very impressed and plan to use Brad again in the future if he's available.”


Andrea M.

“I haven’t used a service like this before and was kind of hesitant about it. Andrea did a fantastic job and took excellent care of my Yoda. I will definitely be using this service again. Thank you Andrea!”




Cory G.

“Cory was awesome. Ace and Charlotte had never been with anyone except family. He made them feel loved. He played with them and took them for walks.”


Gigi R.

“Giving is always the best! She is one of 2 sitters that we use and love all the stuff she does! She is always great with our big dogs and they love her! She even cleaned up our dogs mess when she destroyed some of our rugs. We appreciate her and her ability to help us last minute! The pictures and videos she sends helps us alot! We love our babies and always miss them so much!”


Sidney D.

“Sidney did a great job with her drop-in visit. We came home to a happy, content dog and it was comforting to get photos midday and know he was getting a break from his kennel. We would hire her again!”


Chelsie L.

“Chelsie took excellent care of our dog while we were away overnight! She is thorough with information and pictures and I never had to worry about our sweet dog! I will definitely use Chelsie again!!”


Lisa W.

“Lisa has been amazing getting to know our protective dog, Rosie. She’s been very open to meeting in person a few times before coming alone to make sure both dogs know that she is friendly. She is very accommodating and has been very flexible, respectful, kind, and loving toward both our dogs. So very thankful and excited to be working with Lisa!”


Kassy D.
“Kassy has been helping taking care of our animals for years. She has bathed and walked my pitbull. Her help with our foster animals has been invaluable. She has also watched our two cats. We will definitely be booking her through Rover!”


Torina G.

“What can I say about tori but wow… she did such an amazing job with our cats and spent tons of extra time with them. Sent us tons of updates and pictures. Truthfully, if you need someone to watch a pet or stop by, someone who truly has a kinship with animals, tori is the one to go with. Furthermore, she’s a good person and we felt secure with her entering and leaving our house. We will exclusively use her from now on and you should too. We don’t just give good reviews, they must be earned… and she did that. Aces all the way…”


Keturah M.
“Keturah took care of my dogs during my workdays for a handful of years. I have a chiweenie (who frequently gets eye infections) and a nervous yorkie who requires a certain diet. She's always done great with them and still gets excited to see both of my dogs. I still reach out to her when I'm going out of town. Very reliable girl and loving towards my little guys. I've always been grateful for her.”




Natasha A.

“We are so happy we found Natasha! This was our first Rover experience. We wanted to try in-home care, as our dogs were returning from a previous kennel stressed and sick. Natasha was the perfect choice. She was professional and caring and our dogs loved her right away. She sent lots of pictures and write-ups with every visit. It was a perfect experience and we’ve already booked her again!”


Javon L.
“Javon is always so great with my pups! I am confident they are being cared for and loved while I’m out and there are always wonderful pictures at the end of the day. Highly recommend!”


Madeline M.

“Maddy is awesome! She went above and beyond to take care of my dogs over the 9 days. When she saw my dog was scared during a storm, she stayed and comforted her. Communication was friendly and timely-I looked forward to the updates. Already working on the next visit. Thank you!”




Kendra M.

“Kendra was absolutely perfect! We had her check on our cat while we were gone for a week. Kendra sent daily photos, as well as an update on her food, water, and demeanor that day! She even watered my plants for me! Highly recommend, and we'll definitely use her again in the future!”


Ashley R.
“Ashley took care of my 1 year old Catahoula pup whenever I needed to go out of town! She also cat sit my 1 year old tabby cat! She is very responsible and sent updates while I was away!”
