“Christine was wonderful! This was our first time booking her services, and I would highly recommend her. From our first meet and greet, it was clear she had a lot of experience caring for animals. She was easy to talk to, had good communication during our time away, and went out of her way to care for our dog, Jovi (who can be a bit of a handful and hard to walk sometimes!). She even went out of her way to take him to his favorite park/trail one of the evenings. The coolest thing was finding out she had cared for Jovi when he was a puppy before we adopted him (we’ve had him since he was 1 year old). His previous owner had also contacted Christine for dog sitting, and she was able to look back through her pictures and find young puppy photos of our Jovi! It was totally meant to be! 😆 I highly recommend Christine for all of your animal care needs!”
“Victoria was wonderful, as usual. She kept us up to date on Onyx while we were a way and sent us plenty of pictures. Onyx seemed very happy when we came home, and the house was in great shape too.”
“We love having Ana stay at our house and watch our cats and dogs. She is the first sitter who has been able to get our shy kitty to come out and let her pet him - she is a cat whisperer! She always treats out home with a lot of respect and we come home to find everything just as we left it. She also takes the cutest pics of our crew to share with us while we're away. We couldn't be happier!”
“Matt was everything you want when booking a new sitter. Our dog loved him, he was super responsive before and during, and had a real ease and kindness about him. We didn’t worry at all and as a pet owner you can understand how invaluable that is:) we loved Matt, will rebook him forever in the future and recommend you book him too!!”
“Lizzie did a great job taking care of my older dog! She responded when I reached out to her and kept me up to date when I was running out of treats. I would definitely book again ?”
“Yuliia is an excellent dog sitter. She stayed with our dog Hank in our home and provided him with lots of attention, stimulation, and loving affection. We loved the many wonderful photos she sent documenting what a good time they were having. Her great care for Hank and our home made a much needed trip possible. Highly recommend.”
“Daniel took exceptional care of our two dogs. He was very communicative, kind, and accommodating. I felt at ease from the moment we dropped them off, and Daniel continued to make me feel so throughout their stay. I highly, highly recommend him!”
“Tiffany is fantastic! Our girls (Lennon + Mink) loved their time with her. This was our first experience leaving them with someone they didn’t already know and Tiffany was the perfect sitter. Not only was she already communicative from the get go, but our sweet pup got gnarly hot spots the day before we left for a long weekend and we were heartbroken to leave her with an open wound and a stranger to tend to her. Tiffany was wonderful having to adapt last minute and make applying topical ointment a part of her routine with Lennon while we were gone. She monitored Lennon closely and updated us regularly. Not to mention our cat absolutely loves her. Tiffany will be our go to sitter from now on!”
“Grateful for the care of our furry handful—he really can be a handful due to his dog aggression—and the excellent communication that Dwayne provided. I felt comfortable and confident leaving Pongo in Dwayne's care, which has not always been the case with other sitters. When we returned home, Pongo looked fat and happy. (He always looks fat.) And our house looked great.”
“Ariana was fantastic! She was incredibly flexible, even letting us switch the dogs out at the last minute, which we really appreciated. She communicated quickly and clearly, making everything so easy and stress-free. Our dogs were happy and well cared for, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”
“Jenna was amazing! Our cat, Peter, appeared to warm up to her very quickly. She made sure she spent quality time with him. She left our house just as clean as when we left, if not cleaner! I’ll definitely be recommending Jenna to others.”
“LaShanda is so great! Penelope immediately loved her! I really appreciated how many pictures and videos LaShanda sent. It put my dog mom heart at ease. I would definitely contact her to sit for Penelope again.”
“I fully recommend Jena! She was quick to communicate with me everyday which was very reassuring. She also sent countless photos and gave tons of love to my two cats during my trip :-)”
“Misha was super great and even came a few days earlier to meet and greet with the dogs. Was super communicative throughout the time I was away from my girls and made my trip a lot easier! Thanks Misha!!”
“Mo was a wonderful sitter. Great energy, great communication, and the boys took to him immediately, which doesn't always happen. Took great care of the house as well. I'd feel very comfortable leaving my pups with Mo again. Will definitely rebook.”
“Once again, Jessica provided top shelf care. I simply can't imagine a better pet sitter! I just hope she never stops providing this service because it would be hard to find a replacement.”
“Magaly was great! We contacted her last minute for her to house sit and take care of our dog. She was great and took great care of him. She was quick to respond when we checked in and sent us pictures of our sweet boy. . She also left our house very clean. We would definitely recommend her!”

Saint Edwards pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cody finally won Pippi over. She allowed him to put her harness on and walked her every morning. They played fetch every evening, her favorite. Cody sent pictures of her walks and when she would sunbathe in the yard. He applied cream meds to the side of her face where she was rubbing on the rug. it looked a lot better when I got home. Cody washed the bed sheets, covers and made the bed. The trash was taken out and the house was in the same condition as I left it. I would use Cody again.
This was Shanna’s second house sit with our two cats, we are so comfortable leaving them in her hands. She sent regular updates and was very diligent with my diabetic senior cat’s needs. The communication was great and the cats were relaxed and social around her. Would 100% recommend Shanna and hope she comes back for us
Cortney did such an amazing job caring for our two pups, and handled an unexpected medical situation with one dog very promptly and professionally. She kept us updated with her aftercare and with the general state of the dogs while we were gone. 10/10 recommend!!
Van was so great with our dogs and went above and beyond with her care with them and updating us often. She was extremely communicative and I never had to worry about anything while I was away. I came home to two happy/tired dogs and a clean home. I would definitely use Van again would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pup(s).
What a saving grace Sarah was to our family! Last minute did a meet and greet and was able to stay with our dog very last minute as I went into labor. Had to extend the stay and her willingness last minute will always be appreciated. Couldn’t recommend Sarah enough!
This recent booking was our first overnight stay with Steven. I’ve booked Steven a couple times before for day-stays and I was so relieved to hear he was available for house sitting while I went on a several day hiking trip in California. My pup is anxious and very attached to me so, I have a hard time leaving her with just anyone. Knowing Steven would be taking care of my pup let me fully enjoy myself while I was away. I’m appreciative of his flexibility, understanding, and communication. Thank you for all of your kindness and patience with Palomita! Can’t wait for our next house sitting opportunity.
Our pup loves Amanda and we’d go back to Amanda again and again! We were gone for a long trip and we were so glad we had Amanda to take care of her. We never had to worry about her knowing that she was with Amanda who loves her dearly. Amanda would go out of her way to get her favorite pup treats and etc. she also took great care of our house, our can’t wait to hang out with Amanda again!
So many great things to say about Krista! I’m a high maintenance dog mom and she accommodated all my requests. My foster dog, Susie, is spicy and Krista handled her perfectly. Gave her space and let Susie come to her. We don’t leave our dogs more than 5-6 hours and we were so lucky Krista was able to keep the dog’s routine. She gave regular updates and left the house clean and tidy. This was our first trip in years and Krista gave me peace of mind being away from my babies.
Shawn was great! She was prompt and responsive when I texted, sent pics of the cats unprompted, took great care of them, was pleasant and helpful in conversation before and during her stay, and left the house tidy when she left. I will book with her again and you should too!
Anthony did an amazing job watching my golden retriever puppy for two days at my home. He kept me updated the entire time with constant communication, sent photos, and was super flexible with my schedule. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, and my house was just as I left it. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend him!
Zy was great with our 2 dogs while we were gone. One has severe anxiety during thunderstorms and Zy kept him calm and made him feel safe while it stormed outside. Zy sent us updates and pics each day to know the boys were doing great. We’d book with them again!
