1. Garrett R.
“Garett was wonderful. He sent photos of our pups every day, stayed at the house and took care of it (a real perk to know someone was loving on my boys daily just as we would. He let us know when he’d be out, he was so communicative and even fed the cat when she happened to run out of food a few days before we returned (she’s a fat cat!). The pups seemed to adjust well to him and the meet and greet beforehand was super helpful so they knew we approved of him. All in all we would highly recommend Garrett to our friends and family. He did a great job and I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again.”
2. Tracy E.
“So, relying on folks we knew as reliable dog/house sitters hasn’t worked out well for us. So I thought “I’ll use a service.” Perhaps paying folks I don’t know - and who will rely on my review of their service as a means to obtain more business - and truly treating this as a business transaction, would be a better route than assuming all of my friends love my babies as much as I do. I chose Tracy solely based upon his large number of positive reviews. Tracy was all business, and I appreciated it. As a first time customer he made time to stop by and meet me and the pups and let me show him around the house. We agreed upon the time he would spend here, and that he would take my puppy back to his house for the night. And what we agreed upon is exactly what happened. I got regular updates and he humored me through my constant texts. I never waited longer than a few minutes to get a reply from him. It was equally refreshing to come home after being gone all night and have it seem as though nobody had been in my house, and to have the dogs happy, calm and content. Thank you Tracy!”
3. Lydia H.
“Lydia did a fine job house sitting and talking care of our dog and cat. She even passed out candy Halloween night! We felt very comfortable being over seas knowing our home and animals were taken care of.”
4. Anna B.
“Anna is the best! She always takes such good care of not only our little guy, but also our apartment when we’re gone! Zuko loves when she watches him, and we never have to worry while he’s in her care. Thank you Anna!”
5. Brooklyn P.
“Brooklyn was able to help me out last minute and was great. She paid a lot of attention to my dogs and they really liked her. She communicated well and was fully invested in making sure my dogs were well-taken care of while I was gone.”
6. Amy N.
“Amy was amazing at everything. My dog is very fearful and she accommodated to his needs by meeting him before and interacted with him to gain his trust. She treated him amazing and was very communicative during her stay. He trusted her right away and I cannot be more thankful for finding her! She stayed at our home with our dog for 10 days and everything was perfect!!”
7. Brianna R.
“This was my first experience with Rover and Brianna was great! She was flexible with all known and last minute requests while caring for my dogs at our house. She sent pictures throughout the week, communicated when she would be away from the dogs during the day and when she returned, provided updates on how they were doing, and didn't hesitate to ask questions if my notes were unclear. I will definitely be reaching out to her for future bookings. Thanks again!”
8. Mason H.
“My first time using Rover. Mason was great with my three dogs. 2 standard Poodles and an English bulldog. It was a house sitting job, House was just the way I left it, and my dogs were happy. They usually go to the kennel when we go out of town. But from now on, I will use Mason and Rover. I know they were much more comfortable here at home. I appreciate Mason's professionalism and Knowledge of taking care of animals. Thank you so much.”
9. Bree B.
“Bree was awesome and the cats appeared to like her also. She sent pictures and even took out the trash. We will be using her services again. It is so relaxing to be away and know that your pets are happy and well taken care of. I can't say enough about Bree.”
10. Mary C.
“Mary was an exceptional sitter for Meatball while we were at the Miami Open, bringing a special touch by including her well-behaved dog, Odin. This unique pairing was fantastic; Meatball not only enjoyed her company but also learned positive behaviors from Odin, showcasing Mary’s skill in fostering a great environment for pets to learn from each other. We appreciated the regular updates and photos from Mary, which highlighted the fun and educational interactions between Meatball and Odin. Mary’s understanding of dog behavior and her proactive approach to pet sitting went beyond our expectations, providing Meatball with both care and companionship. We highly recommend Mary for her thoughtful and enriching pet sitting services. Her ability to merge care with behavioral guidance through Odin’s exemplary behavior is truly commendable. Thanks Mary!”

“Stephanie has been a pet owner for many years. She loves ALL animals! She has a very calm nature and lights up at the sight of any fur baby! She is a kind and compassionate human being and would be excellent with fur babies.”
14. Ella W.
“Ella is a huge animal lover. She has a high energetic and happy goldendoodle. I have had her watch my two dogs plenty of times!”
15. Hannah H.
“Hannah helped me out with a last minute request when my sitter got COVID. She was awesome!! Kept me updated and took great care of my pets. Highly recommend booking with Hannah!”
16. Alyssa L.
“Alyssa did great! We booked her for our wedding weekend where we didn’t know exactly what we would need help with. She was able to adjust as needed and work with us with patience and the pups loved her! She also left no trace of her visit. She is so personable and highly recommend!”
17. Stephanie M.
“Stephanie was amazing with our dog. She sent us frequent updates while we were away which gave us great peace of mind and she was a great listener with all of the little details of our goofy (and sometimes challenging) dog. She cleaned up after any messes he made and got him a variety of types of exersize as well as making sure he ate his food. She let us know about any problems and asked us how we would like them handled if she hadn't already taken care of it. She even brought a toy for him! Stephanie was such a blessing and we will be inviting her back if we travel in the future.”
