“I had my first experience using Rover, and I'm so glad Taylor was the sitter for our fur babies! She was incredibly helpful, advising me on how to use the platform effectively, and made sure to get all the details about their care. Taylor also helped me think through different scenarios, including what to do in case of any delays on our return. I felt confident leaving my pets in her care, and I would absolutely recommend her!”
“Nicole was amazing - she graciously stepped in to check in on my cat when my prior sitter canceled the day before I was supposed to leave for my trip. I’m so glad she did, because she’s truly the best sitter I’ve found on Rover. Very kind and gracious - she went above and beyond sending me 7-8 photos each time, a detailed summary, and even some videos! Will definitely be booking with Nicole again. Can’t thank you enough!”
“We had Vanessa watch our two young cats over Thanksgiving week. Vanessa was great with them and with us - attentive to their needs and very responsive to us. Our favorite was the pictures she shared in the after-visit reports, and our cats’ favorite was seeing their new buddy. Vanessa was very respectful, professional, and kind. Would definitely ask Vanessa to come back in the future!”
“Monica provided great care for my cat like she always does. she provided pictures and videos of him and also gave updates as she did the drop ins. Monica administered his insulin well and with care! My cat loves her!”
About: I have had 10 years of experience in the animal husbandry and veterinary field. Currently focusing on my last few classes before Grad. School and wanting to work one- on-one with animals. I am currently a full time student and using rover for part time work. Prior scheduled house sitting is preferred to be able to accommodate my school schedule; usually use the afternoon to run/fitness activities and homework. I frequently care for my family and friends pets in their home, for their comfort. As a prior ICU nursing asst., I believe in the mental and emotional welfare of animal home and their comfort/routine means alot to me.
“Taryn did such a great job taking care of our dog while we were away! So grateful for her. She is communicative, responsible, and so kind. Would highly recommend!!”
“Jennifer was FANTASTIC! Her care was top notch and I felt so secure leaving my kiddos with her. I genuinely think that one of my cats, Toast was disappointed to see us, and not Jennifer. She gave great updates and photos at every visit and we appreciated her so much! I will absolutely contact Jennifer again for care of our kitties.”
“Jackson’s level of care and attentiveness is top tier. Communications throughout remained as prompt, detailed, and reassuring as anyone could hope for! Will be rebooking in the future for sure.”
“Super sweet to help out super last minute as we got stuck 10 hours away. Our poor babies had pooped inside and she picked it all up so we wouldn’t come back to a total mess. She was also amazing with our GSD who can be shy/timid. We will definitely use her again!!”
“Rachel did a great job watching out for my cat when I was out of town on a business trip. She lives near by so it was easy for her to drop in. She played with my cat, feed him, scooped his litter, & petted him. I'm planning to use her services again the next time I have to go out of town.”
“Jessica is great with our pups during drop in visits. Both dogs (even our spicy brained boy) seem to easily connect with her because of her thoughtful and skillful approach, which sets our mind minds at ease while we’re away.”
About: Hi, I'm an experienced dog lover with 9 years in dog 4-H and veterinary science. I grew up showing Collies and was raised on a hobby farm, where I've trained and shown multiple dogs; making it easier for me to understand dog body language. I offer dedicated, compassionate care for your furry friends. As a business owner, I have a lot more freedom on my hands allowing me a mostly open schedule to care for your treasured pets When providing in home pet care I provide respect for your personal space and attention to detail in caring for your pet and making them feel a little less lonely without you. At my home I have a fenced yard, and space for crates as well as a home set up for pets. My two friendly dogs can either provide company for your dog or be crated as needed.
“Looking for the 6th star! Rebekah is THAT GOOD! She gets even my big grumpus Sheldon to come out and play, is super flexible with scheduling, and takes great pictures. I love being able to travel knowing that my babies are getting the very best care and attention!”
“I needed recurring visits & Arrica was more than helpful with my dog! She truly saw my dog as her own & took wonderful care of him. Will be booking with her again if I need someone to drop in on him!”
“Keesha was a great sitter! She was took amazing care of our 12 year old Maine Coon. The daily drop ins for food, water and treats was just what our grumpy old man needed during our quick weekend away. Daily updates/photos put our minds at ease knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend Keesha to care for your fur baby! We 100% will be using her again soon!”
“This was our first time ever hiring a pet sitter so we didn’t quite know what to expect. We picked Lindsay based on her profile and reviews and we liked that she lived really close. We met her and immediately knew that she would be great with our two cats and dog. They all immediately took to her as well which was a great sign! We only did a two day one night trip but we will definitely look forward to having Lindsay watch our pets again! She communicated how they were doing and sent lots of great pictures. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our pets while we were able to go on a quick trip. Looking forward to longer trips in the future and I’ll know that our pets are in great hands!”
Santa Fe pet parents share their Rover experiences
Regan did a wonderful job with the drop in visits. My dog really liked him and my shyest cat came out to see him, which I consider a good sign. Regan also made sure the feral cats had food and water as requested. Sent me photos & quick updates. I would love to hire Regan again when I go out of town.
This was our first time using Rover and we are super pleased with the service. Melissa came to hour home at the exact times requested. Our young dog and two cats all seem to take to her immediately. Even our scary cat made appearances. Would absolutely recommend her for any pet sitting needs.
Derek was great to work with!! Our cat Rini really liked him and he greeted her immediately when he came to our house for an introduction. He shared a few photos during his check in visits and was prompt in responding when we had questions and while setting up the visits. We will definitely ask Derek to check in with our cat in the future!
Jennifer is an absolute sweetheart and Louie loves having her as a sitter. He even goes to his kennel all by himself while I'm getting ready for work. She checks in regularly and gives me photo updates. The most important thing is that she gives him the care and attention I'm not able to give him while I'm at work. I book with her every week because I'm so happy with the way she takes care of my baby boy.
Ella was SO great!! Helped me out with our dog rather last minute, and was very accommodating when we needed to add extra drop ins. She communicated well and was able to do a few quick things for us at the house too. My dog is not the biggest fan of people she doesn’t know so it was a relief to find someone that was so accommodating. Highly recommend! .
We had an excellent experience with Kara! From beginning to end, communication was prompt and meticulous. While we were away, she kept us completely at ease by sending lots of photos and detailed updates after each in-home visit. We especially appreciated how thorough she was in describing how each of our cats was doing—their moods, eating habits, playtime, and any little personality quirks that came up. She took the time to get to know our animals individually and cared about their comfort and routine. We would absolutely book with Kara again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative pet sitter!
This was my second time leaving my two cats in Rafaela's care, and I have no worries about them when she's watching them. They can be shy at times but they really seem to be comfortable with her. She sends great photos & updates, and communicates well. I highly recommend her!
