1. Kimberley T.
“Kim is amazing. She takes great care of my girl when she comes to visit her! I absolutely love all the pictures she sends to me also!!! I would highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies”
2. Mary M.
“Played with our cat the whole time every day she went for a visit. She even went above and beyond by helping with the litter box. we will definitely ask Mary for drop-in visits in the future.”
3. Ashley & Christopher S.
“Honestly amazing! I was out of town when I noticed through our cameras that the autofeeder I had for the stray cats wasn't dispensing any food. It was a sudden request but Ashley was able to unjam the feeder and also offered to buy and refill the food when the food ran out. They even hid a package for me that was delivered while I was away so it wasn't stolen. For my first time using Rover I am highly impressed and thankful for Ashley. They additionally provide live updates and pictures during visits which is much appreciated. My request didn't require direct interaction with the cats but I think this is a reflection for how capable and reliable they are.”

“Thank you, Lillian!!”
5. Tim M.
“I couldn't ask for a better experience with Tim. He was attentive, responsive, and carried out my (borderline unreasonable) instructions to the letter. My two cats took to him right away. (They trust nearly nobody; I was amazed by their immediate comfort with a new person.) Tim provided me with daily updates and I had no worries about their care while I was away. In short, Tim and Rover made me able to enjoy my vacation. Tim is my go-to for future sitting, full stop.”
6. Leandra M.
“Leandra was a great cat sitter! Completed multiple drop in visits while I was out of town. Took very good care of my cat. Very communicative, punctual, and accommodating to my cat and residence needs. Would highly recommend Leandra, and will definitely be reaching out for Leandras assistance in the future when needed.”
7. Dominic W.
“Dominic is the best person you could have on Rover's team. I've known him for almost 7 years now and I couldn't think of anything that would prevent anyone from choosing him to take care of their pets. Not only does he take care of his dog, but he has taken care of my cats even though he's allergic to them... When it comes to caring, Dom goes above and beyond which explains why he is so trusted in his work and with his friends.”

9. Lauren W.
“This was my first time using this app, I was so nervous and anxious but Lauren made this experience so great for us. After her first drop when I saw how happy my babies were I knew they were in great hands! I can’t thank or recommend her enough!”
10. Deven G.
“Not only was this our first time using Rover but it was also our first time to leave our kitty with a stranger. Deven made us feel so comfortable and confident that our cat was in good hands. She had great communication, was extremely kind and sent a very detailed check in along with photos after each visit. Would highly recommend Deven and we will definitely be booking her on our next trip out of town.”
11. Lisa B.
“Awesome person”
12. Christen O.
“I'm convinced my dogs like Christen better than me! Christen is someone who helps you once and becomes family. Her kindness for any type of animal is unmatched and she has cared for both my dogs, cat, and a bunny and I never have to worry about them when she is there. Christen is also extremely flexible and dependable and genuinely enjoys helping others! Highly recommend Christen for any of your four legged friends!”
13. Carolina R.
“Carolina was great! She responded quickly to all my questions. I recommend her because she definitely has a passion for animals and our dog was smiling all the time when she came to do drop in visits.”

“5 STARS!!! Jennifer was AWESOME!!! I couldn’t have asked for better care for my dog! She went above and beyond to stay in touch with me and let me know how Waco was doing. She’s the best!!!”
16. Breann D.
“Breann does an amazing job with all types of pets. She has personally pet sat for me in the past and my dogs almost didn't want to come home with me because she took such good care of them. She genuinely cares for their health and overall well being. She had even helped me trim my pets nails. She is a great person to consider and I recommend her.”
17. Tina H.

19. Chloe W.
“Chloe was phenomenal! This was the first time I’ve used Rover to do in-house check ins for my pups since I almost always board, but she was great and put my mind at ease. My dogs loved her during the meet and greet we did and she kept in constant communication for the days she checked in. 😊”
