9. Ryan R.
“Ryan is a responsible pet lover who kept my spoiled pup extra spoiled while on vacation. He's become our goto caregiver and who we trust the most.”
10. Jacob B.
“Jake B has been wonderful about looking after my pup and administering the right amount of medication in a way that doesn't leave them scared, or without. As an anxious dog owner, I was nervous about leaving my pup during the workday, and later over longer weekend trips, but Jake checked in during every visit with photos that let me know my pet was happy, well-cared-for, and content. He was fastidious about nutritional and playtime needs (I have a high energy dog on medication) and I was particularly grateful for how he watered my plants and brought in my mail and bins while away.”
11. Elaine R.
“I want to give a high recommendation regarding Elaine. I have seen how she cared for her dog who had health problems. She is very dependable and caring. I would absolutely trust her to care for my 2 dogs.”
12. Oliya B.
“Thank you so much for taking care of Loki! The boys definitely love the play time and attention they get 🐶🥰”
13. Stacee V.
“I can't recommend Stacee enough as a pet sitter on Rover. I’ve known Stacee for 7 years now and she’s taken care of my pets multiple times. Stacee is not only reliable but also truly loves animals. Whenever we would hang out she would always make time to come in and say hi to my boys. My pups are always excited to see her too! Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, Stacee is always attentive and thoughtful. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and kind to watch over your pets, you won’t find anyone better!”
14. Maia C.
“Maia and Brent did a fabulous job taking care of our 2 boys (ie. our cats) while our regular pet sitter was out of town. We appreciated the flexibility of booking last minute for a holiday week. She was very professional and showed great knowledge when we introduced her to our dog (who we were taking with us on our trip). We won’t hesitate to leave all of them with her in the future. She sent us photos with updates at each check-in and even hunted down a missing package in our mailbox to bring it inside for us.”
15. Nathan G.
“Nathan took care of my girls while I had to travel. They were well taken care of and happy when I got home. Thank you!!!”
16. Chantal L.
“We hired Chantal to keep an eye on our girl while we were away for a couple days. We liked her immediately from the getting-to-know-you visit, and she did a fantastic job, providing frequent updates and giving our girl plenty of walks and cuddles. As a bonus, she even brought some packages in off our porch! We'll happily hire her at any time!”
17. Reuben R.
“Reuben has such a deep and gentle love for animals! He is kind, and animals naturally just love him. Whether it’s cats or dogs, or other pet friends, he would be a wonderful caring sitter that any owner can feel safe living their fur babies with.”
18. Savannah H.
“Savannah took care of our old gal Betty. She left everything as found and Betty seemed very grateful. Would definitely use Savannah in the future. Thank you!”
