“Jonathan did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of our two dogs and two cats while we were overseas for a couple of weeks! We received almost daily updates with photos, videos and status reports. The dogs got daily walks and all their needs were taken care of. Jonathan was super responsible and respectful; everything was spotless upon our return, and all pets were happy and healthy. Bonus: Jonathan's own pup is super sweet and was a great companion to our furry ones! If you are looking for a responsible, capable and trustworthy pet sitter, we highly recommend Jonathan and will certainly ask him back for future trips.”

Riverview West pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amelia has been a great sitter for our cat on multiple occasions now. She is great with communicating and sending us pictures. She plays with her pets her and stays the night! Highly recommend her. It’s great having comfort, confidence, and trust with who cares for our cat and with Amelia we have that!
Matt and Bella were great pet sitters. There communication and punctuality were perfect - amazing!!!! We have 4 raucous dogs - 3 are over 50 pounds and Matt was so calm with them that they greeted him like an old friend. We received regular updates and photos, which are so appreciated, especially being a nervous pet parent. It's always so nice to come home after a busy weekend and the house was in perfect order and the pups were happy - Ahhhhh! I highly recommend Matt and Bella to provide your pet and housesitting needs. Thank you so much!
Elizabeth exceeded our expectations . Made everything seamless and easy . She was amazing with communication and updated us with pictures . Our boy Bo loved her ! We look forward to using her services in the future and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter for their fur babies .
Robyn is the best! She took our two pups last minute when we had a scheduling snafu and lept to our rescue. She is a dog lover through and through and I can’t tell you how quickly our two dogs attached to her. We have a 5 month old pup and as we all know, pups are a handful and need extra supervision. Robyn was so graceful and effortless in taking care of our one older dog and our puppy. That’s not easy to do. Would highly recommend Robyn for any of your pup care needs 10 out of 10!
Christian was a phenomenal dog-sitter! He made sure to provide updates of the service everyday. I greatly appreciated his communication style - Especially while my husband and I were out of town. He also made sure to inform us of any incidents while we were away. I felt so at ease while on vacation, and it’s all thanks to Christian. Overall, our family would love to book him again (if he’d have us, of course!). Thank you, again for taking care of our fur-son. <3
This was my first time having a stranger watch my dog and house, and Annalie did a fantastic job! She took great care of my dog, Winston, and kept me updated throughout the weekend with photos and videos, which really helped put my mind at ease. Everything at the house was just as I left it, and Winston was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Annalie and plan to book with her again in the future!
I can’t say enough good things! She watched my dogs during a trip and took such good care of them that even my fearful dog opened up to her for cuddles. She even cleaned and washed everything she used so we wouldn’t have to worry about cleaning when we got back. On top of all that, our flight got canceled and she added on services at the last minute to accommodate us and our pups’ needs. BEST dog sitter! Very respectful and genuinely enjoys being with your fur babies
Sarah was amazing with Koji! At the very beginning, in our meet and greet, he was all over her. He is an Akita, and not usually overtly friendly, so that was really comforting. Sarah came in with such confidence and kindness with him, and she was so kind to keep our house neat and clean for when we returned. We are so grateful!
日本人の方にお勧めのシッターさんです。She is the best house sitter you could ask for. We have two crazy giant cats who had been nightmares for the past sitters. I couldn’t enjoy my vacation without receiving continuous calls or texts from them complaining about them. This is my first vacation which I could relax thanks to Yoshiko. She communicated daily with pictures and videos. She left our house cleaner than we left it for her stay also. Both of our crazy cats looked happy to see us when we got home, but they also looked relaxed. We could tell they were well taken care of.
Mira was perfect. The first time my dogs met her they were instantly comfortable with her. She watched them in our home for 10 days while I was on the other side of the country and I had complete confidence they were being loved and well cared for. She took them for frequent walks/runs and made some new friends around the neighborhood. She provided regular updates and pics and was always quick to respond. We even came home to a clean house and fresh sheets! I’ll definitely book her again.
Kat is a terrific dog sitter. She stayed with our two boys at our house and did an amazing job. We received many updates and pictures of the dogs. She even worked on one of our dog's barking issues and kept him pretty quiet. She also managed our other dog's medication/suppliment needs perfectly. They boys obviously had a blast with her with the many videos and pictures of smiling pups we received 🙂Afterwards we received a full recap, a thank you letter and she even washed the sheets/towels she used. Kat was amazing and we recommend her to anyone!!
Amanda was a great house sitter! We met up beforehand to introduce her to the animals and she did so well with a nervous dog. Abbie immediately warmed up to her. She left our house looking spotless and even laundered the sheets before leaving! I would recommend her and use her again.
Cat is always amazing with our dog Vito. Vito can be stubborn when meeting new people at times, but Cat is great. She takes great care of Vito, is extremely thoughtful, and goes above and beyond. We really appreciate all the photos as well! She is our go-to sitter!
