“Oliver was awesome! We really appreciate him watching our 3 boys. Our boys can be and handful and Oliver made sure that all their needs were met. Can’t wait to book with him again in the future!”

“Dina watched our elderly dog for five days in our home. She did a fabulous job. Our dog was well cared for and our house was definitely cleaner than we left it. Dina was a great communicator, sent me updates every day and consistently responded quickly when I reached out. And she sent lots of pictures. Dina handled meds and other instructions like a champ. When we needed to extend our trip by one day, she very kindly agreed to take on an extra day. I would be delighted to have Dina watch my pup again.”

“Chesnie did a fantastic job with my dog Sammy. She sent pictures daily while they were out in their walks. Sammy had some tummy issues while Chesnie was watching him and she handled the situation perfectly, making sure I knew Sammy was taken care of. I would highly recommend Chesnie to care for your pets!”

“Michelle did a great job with my pup. She's kind and knowledgeable and has an obvious love of animals. We hope to have her sit again for us she was an excellent fit! Highly recommend :)”

“A+ for Mikayla who watched our dog for a five day home visit. He was very happy and not stressed when we returned. We have re-booked Mikayla for another home stay. This says it all!”

“Madison was absolutely wonderful!! She has watched our pack of 4 dogs and 2 cats twice now and we felt safe each time knowing our animals were in great care. She even got our very nervous dog to warm up to her and snuggle her! I highly recommend Madison for any pet sitting, we will be using her again in the future for sure!”

“I had to be out of town for 6 days and Mileah was an amazing house sitter! She was very responsive and even took time to meet before hand to go over my pups routine. I came back to happy pups and home. Will definitely use her services again.”

“Sasha was a great sitter and wonderful at communicating everything throughout the stay. My house was left very clean. Sasha is super nice! Will definitely use her again.”

“Jewel did a great job with our dogs as always! She is very conscientious about our house and goes above and beyond taking care of everything. She checks in regularly and gives updates on our dogs. We love having her take care of them and know they are getting great care while we are away!”

“Adriane and Zach were absolutely amazing! They took our 3 boys on extremely short notice and treated them like the family just like we do. They gave us awesome updates and we can tell our pups miss them ?. If there is anyone to use. Use them. Such great people. Not only did they watch our dogs, they watched our house too! 10/10 would recommend. We will use them for everything! Next time I think our dogs would enjoy staying with them and that says a lot!!!! Thank you both!!!!”
“DruAnn was amazing to communicate with and she took incredible care of our pup and home. She sent us pics and checked in while we were away which was so nice! She was wonderful to work with! We highly recommend her!!! Thank you DruAnn!”

“Lisa is an amazing pet/house sitter. She was great with communication and took excellent care of my dog and house. House was spotless and my dog was. Happy and well cared for when I arrived home. She is the best!! Will definitely use her again!!!”

“My pups loved Laurie! Felt great to leave with a peace of mind knowing my pups were in good hands. I got updates and pictures every day which I greatly appreciated.”

“Lyz was absolutely fantastic! She watched our two dogs, Molly and Wyatt, for 8 days and went above and beyond in every way. Communication was great—she sent regular photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We have a large, energetic 1-year-old shepherd who’s still very much in his puppy phase, and Molly, our 4-year-old, tends to be a bit skittish with new people. Lyz was incredibly patient, and Molly warmed up to her beautifully. She stayed in our home and treated it with the utmost care—we came back to everything exactly as we left it. It truly felt like she cared for both our pets and our home as if they were her own. I would highly recommend Lyz to anyone looking for a reliable, respectful, and caring sitter. We feel lucky to have found her!”

“Emma was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our three fur babies and went above and beyond, taking them on extra walks, giving them so much love, and keeping them happy while we were away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands and that we didn’t have to stress about someone being in our home. We came back to happy dogs and a tidy house! We can’t recommend Emma enough. thank you for treating our pups like your own! ❤️🐾”

“Sydney did a great job house sitting for us with our two dogs. We came home to a clean home just like we left it and the dogs were happy and well taken care of. Sydney brought in our mail and packages while we were away too. I plan on using her again, and would recommend her to others as well.”

“Lily's first time sitting with my two older dogs went great. She followed my detailed instructions and communicated regularly. I really appreciate how she got to know my dogs in advance of our booking to be sure everything would go ok.”

Santa Cruz Southwest pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lyz was fabulous with my 3 cats and elderly dog. She sent photos each night to show how they were all doing, which I really appreciated. During the day she sent multiple updates. Before the stay she met with me in person, so she was able to meet her charges and get first hand instructions. She was perfect for us, and we will be having her stay for us again!!

Emma was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our three fur babies and went above and beyond, taking them on extra walks, giving them so much love, and keeping them happy while we were away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands and that we didn’t have to stress about someone being in our home. We came back to happy dogs and a tidy house! We can’t recommend Emma enough. thank you for treating our pups like your own! ❤️🐾

We can't say enough good things about how Jackie cared for our 18 year old pup. Not only did Jackie made us feel confident every step of the process with great communication and attention to detail, but our little pooch made a new best friend. Thank you, Jackie!

Fiona is the best dog sitter! She is kind and respectful. She took great care of my 2 dogs. My dachshund is very timid with new people and she made friends easily with Fiona. The house looked just like we had left it. I highly recommend Fiona and she will be taking care of my dogs whenever I need a sitter.

Taylor was the best pet and house sitter!!!! She was always responsive and took excellent care of my dog. She even helped her through the 4th of July fireworks which are a terrifying event for my dog!! She took excellent care of my outdoor plants and left the house spotless. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.

I’m an extremely anxious cat mom of three, and leaving my babies for a whole week felt incredibly stressful. From the moment I met Pat before I left for my trip, she put my mind at ease, and throughout the 8 nights she stayed at my home, she went above and beyond in every way. Pat sent me 10+ photos a day, which meant so much to me. I could see my cats’ sweet faces and their comfort in her care. She gave me frequent updates on their eating habits, litter box use, playtime, and overall behavior—every thing that matters so much to a cat parent when they’re away. She treated them like her own and slept with them every night so they wouldn’t feel alone. I felt truly lucky to have found her. I came home to a clean house and happy, relaxed kitties. If you're a fellow anxious pet parent, or just someone looking for the absolute best care for your pets, I cannot recommend Pat highly enough. She’s thoughtful, communicative, responsible, and clearly has a genuine love for animals.

We were so happy to have Vida back to housesit for us again! We recently added a new pup and she made the effort to come prior to the housesitting dates to come meet him. Our boys were taken great care of and will always reach out to her first for any sitting needs!

I picked Mason because he was closer to my home than most and he was extremely responsive to my questions even before I met him. I was very lucky to have booked this young man. He went above and beyond my requests of him and Cooper loved him. Cooper never had so much exercise. Mason is a student who doesn't have a car but that didn't stop him from hiking up my hill to meet us. We will be repeat customers for sure.
