1. Kevin D.

“Kevin and his daughter were very friendly and diligent dog sitters. I came back to a happy dog and a clean house. Very happy with the service!”


2. Omar & Claudia T.


“Omar and Claudia were fantastic! Gizmo is easy going but Pepe is super hard to please, and they managed to gain his trust in no time. Omar and Claudia were punctual, professional, reliable and kind. They kept communicating with us throughout the sitting period and share photos and videos of our two boys. Their dedication to our dogs is greatly appreciated and we’ll definitely book them again soon. We really appreciate their dedication to make sure everything was perfect.”


3. Don B.

“Don is a pleasure to have at our house. Our pets are kind of boring to watch because they do not do much but they get along well with Don. He checks in and is responsive. We will definitely have him watch the pets again!”


4. Heidy G.

“Heidy was a great cat sitter and maintained good communication throughout the stay. I also appreciated all the pictures she sent of my cat. Would recommend!”


5. Carmen L.

“Carmen was great! Very professional and communicative, we’re so grateful she was able to accommodate a last minute booking for us. Our dog had a great time with her and he seemed very happy and relaxed!”


6. Jennifer G.
“Jennifer has been amazing with any and all pets she has come in face with. Jennifer has a 'dog whisperer' heart, animals ADORE her! It's been amazing learning from her, as I am recently a new cat mom!”


7. Felicia H.

“Felicia was wonderful! Every email was returned quickly. Our dog, Walter loved being with her. She was prompt and friendly. We will definitely book her again. Thanks.”


8. Jeffrey B.

“Jeff is awesome! First time using him and he was great with my dogs. I have a dog who is 13 and his having some health problems and a 2 year old who is full of energy. He took great care of them. He took them both out for walks. He walked my younger dog 8 miles to the lake and back one day! He kept me updated with messages and photos. He also helped with some training for my younger dog who can be leash reactive. My dogs seemed very happy. I felt like they were on vacation, too! When I returned home the dogs looked very happy and my house looked great. He cleaned up the yard, too. I always clean up after my dogs in the yard and have come home to prior sitters who picked up nothing. Not fun to come home from vacation to. I get really stressed leaving my dogs when I go away but was not stressed at all with Jeff watching them. I knew they were well cared for. So glad I found him and will be using him for all my upcoming trips if he is available. Also, for dog walking in the future, too. I have had many sitters over the years and many nightmare stories I can tell. I had a dog sitter for years who was super but she is older and my young dog is too much for her. So happy to have found Jeff. He is full of energy and a very kind person. Highly recommend!!!!!”


9. Alissa H.
“Alissa is a fantastic pet sitter!! She stayed at our house for a long weekend. I met with her ahead of time to show her around my house and to tell her about Bentley. She is warm, caring, very responsible and trustworthy. The weekend went very smoothly and she texted me updates every day. I knew my dog was in good hands with Alissa.”


10. Lisa L.

“Lisa was amazing! Our Zoey is grumpy with new people but warmed right up to her! 10/10 would recommend to anybody. She was professional and communicated clearly with us. She even made sure to send pictures for my boys of the dogs' presents from Santa!”


11. Xena S.

“This was our first Rover experience and our sitter did not disappoint. Xena was wonderful with our husky. She was punctual and communicative throughout the evening. We look forward to having her return for our next event.”


12. Malek B.


“Malek was amazing!! He really loves animals and treated out two huskies and cat like royalty. He sent us updates on them and photos. We were always in the know. We came back and they were very well taken care of, I would use him again!”


13. India H.

“India did an excellent job house sitting with our goldendoodle and German Shepard. She followed the care instructions and sent updates throughout the sit.”


14. Mikayla S.

“Mikayla was incredible!! She took wonderful care of my fur babies and sent a bunch of photos while I was on vacation! I would 100% rebook with her!”


15. Duncan G.

“Duncan was wonderful, very attentive to the unusual needs of our 8 year old GSD, and very helpful with his ball chasing addiction! We highly recommend Duncan. His dog knowledge, love, and attention to their needs is palpable.”


16. cedric p.

“My pups can be standoffish with strangers but Cedric walked in and won them over immediately. Cedric helped me out on short notice and on a holiday, and left my place clean and neat. I would definitely have him watch my dogs again.”


17. Jennifer C.

“We had so much peace being away leaving our pets in the care of Jennifer! She followed their schedule great and even had to overcome the challenges of their dislike of the rain :) I appreciated her updates with us along with great pictures! Our home was left as we left it. It was obvious that Jennifer enjoys caing for the individual need of the pets she cares for! Thank you Jennifer and thank you Rover!!!”


18. Katelyn H.


“Katelyn was wonderful with our puppies while we were out of town. They looked like they had a great time with her. She was responsive and sent lots of photos! She was also professional and kept the house tidy while we were away.”


19. Kelly F.

“Kelly stayed with our beloved dog and cat for two nights. This was the first time we've ever left them with someone other than one of our family members. I trusted Kelly because of our dog's immediate affinity for her. She is usually suspicious of people she doesn't know, but she loved her! Kelly came over twice to just get acquainted and to learn our cat and dog routines and while we were gone, sent us updates with pictures several times a day. Very responsive, friendly and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her! Thank you Kelly!”


20. Tiffney T.


“Tiffney is a gem! We had to locate a sitter for our three pets in short notice and she came to our rescue! Tiffney was super communicative and kept us updated on our fur babies. She treated them like they were her own and we are super grateful to have connected with her. Highly recommend!”
