“Lydia is such an angel! She house sat with my two dogs for a week and I came home to them as happy as could be! I truly appreciate her communication skills, she sent several photos and also helped me with a personal thing while I was gone! I had so much comfort from Lydia, seems to have so much knowledge about dogs and treats them just like her own! She made sure everything was clean before we got back and even helped out with some training— she will be my go to dog watcher from now on! Thanks again, Lydia!”
“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”
“Bria was fantastic. This was our first time booking with her and the meet and greet went smoothly. She took excellent care of both Hampton and Neko and kept our home clean and tidy. We felt completely at ease while we were away. We are already looking forward to having her sit for us again soon. Highly recommend.”
“Kathleen helped out last minute with a dog sitting for our girls and we couldn't be happier to have had her watch them. She was really sweet to them and sent updates while we were out of the house so we felt very at ease.”
“Ty is super helpful and communicative! And our cat loves him! Cat barely comes out to play with other sitters, but Ty always seems to entice our cat to play, and sends pics. Thanks Ty!”
“Evelyn was the best!! She was so amazing with our dog, Bailey and sent lots of messages/photos/videos to keep us updated. She left our house extremely clean as well. We feel like we found the BEST dog sitter around!!”
“Tyasia V. was a most wonderful caretaker of my cat Agape while I was away 4 and 1/2 days. She clearly loves animals and was very attentive and loving to my cat of 18 years with kidney disease. She was especially wonderful because she came about 5 times to not only meet Agape but learn how to give her infusions, injections of fluids she needs for her kidney disease, which she gave Agape in my absence along with other medications. She was so gentle with Agape as well as playful. She was honest, communicated regularly with me about Agape...sent photos. And left my apartment spotless. I will use her again when I have to go away for a short while. Thank you, Tyasia”
“Gavin was great. He loved our girls as much as we do!! He gave us constant updates on our girls along with pictures. He had to administer a last minute medication and did it successfully with care and love. He was neat and courteous of our home and I have already rebooked him for next weekend. I will not hesitate to book hm again in the future.”

Riverside pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kahiyla was so wonderful and communicative. Would rebook 1,000 times again. Even when our pets got sick/ had trouble while we didn’t have service on vacation she was so helpful and ensured they got to the vet and were safe. We were are so grateful to have had her support while we were away.
Alex took great care of my two Great Pyrenees’! Even the most well behaved big dogs aren’t always the easiest to care for in the city & she did amazing with them! I’ll definitely have her watch my boys again!! 😄 I just wish she would’ve sent more photos but that’s just a personal preference!
Lydia did such a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs, Atticus and Adeline! Immediately after meeting them, she was so caring, attentive, and patient with them both. She communicated clearly throughout the entire process and provided regular updates, and we returned home to two very happy doggies! It was such a huge relief to know that our dogs were in great hands while we were away, and we highly recommend her services.
Sydney did a fabulous job house sitting while we were away. Great communication, had zero issues with timing and let us know right away when our boy was having some stomach issues and continued to update us with how he was doing. Would highly recommend Sydney’s services to anyone!
Stephanie was great! She spent two nights dog sitting our chow chow puppy who was being left at home w/o us for the first time… and unfortunately decided to be a brat about it. Stephanie was very competent and patient despite our dog acting out. Thank you again!!
Natalie provided wonderful care for our dog and cat! She was communicative, considerate, and made our (very anxious) pets feel comfortable. (Our cat is prone to hiding under the fridge, and Natalie was able to coax her out quicker than we can!) I highly recommend Natalie and will be reaching out to her for future pet care needs.
Kathleen took great care of my 12-year-old dog at my home for the weekend. She asked great questions about my dog’s care before the weekend and sent regular updates while I was gone. Best of all, she is warm, funny, and a great person to get to know! Your pets will be in fantastic hands with Kathleen!
