10. Adeline B.
“Adeline went above and beyond when she got stuck in the snow at my house! My animals were safe and happy, and I couldn’t ask for anything more!”
11. Natasha K.
“Tasha was wonderful! It was nerve wracking leaving two senior dogs for a 9-day trip, but she took such great care of them. She sent daily updates and photos. We came home to a spotless house (not an easy task with ultra shedding labs) and the dogs were clearly well cared for. 10/10 would recommend.”
12. Joseph A.
“Joseph and Rashni were fantastic, And it’s not just me that thinks so. Our dogs also give them 5 stars. When they first met it was clear these were dogs people. The dogs were immediately enamored. And when they left the dogs seemed to say there good byes. A really great sign. Responsive to texts and sent unprompted updates and pictures. 👍”
13. Shannon E.
“My little one is very timid and shy and so I have had a lot of anxiety around needing to find a new dog sitter recently. Shannon was a breath of fresh air! She was so patient and respectful of my dogs needs. It was reassuring knowing my little lady was as comfortable and calm as she could be while I was away. The only downfall was the realization of how in high demand Shannon is. If you have the opportunity to book with Shannon, no second guessing is needed. You couldn’t find better!”
14. Alexis S.
“Alexis is an incredibly responsible and loving caregiver. She treats every pet like her own, with patience, kindness, and attention to detail. I completely trust her with my dog!”
15. Pilar S.
“Pilar cared for my two rescues -- a rambunctious pitty mix and a scaredy-dog jack russell/chihuahua mix for a week while I was in Italy. I returned to find two happy pups, and a well-taken-care of house. Thank you so much, Pilar.”
16. Liz E.
“Liz was great! She took care of our two cats while we were out of town for a week. Lots of updates throughout the week to let us know how my kitties were doing and they seemed happy as little clams when we got home. I'll definitely call her again next time we need a sitter.”
17. Evan O.
“I can't recommend Evan enough as a pet sitter. He's punctual and it's clear he cares for pets. He took wonderful care of my two cats keeping me updated with photos and messages while I was away. Evan is trustworthy and I will always look to him to take care of my fur babies.”
18. Kelsey R.
“Kelsey was so kind and thoughtful with Rocky and Otis and while house sitting for us. They were so very happy to be in their own home and she took such good care of them. Kelsey was extremely neat and left the house in better shape than when we left! We will definitely be using her again so book early or we will have reserved a bunch of her open dates! Thank you Rover and especially Kelsey for the peace of mind while we were out of Town. Gregg & Carol”
19. McKenzie M.
“McKenzie is a responsible young woman who loves animals and taking care of pets while their owners are on vacation. She is a dog owner but loves them all. She will be on time, follow instructions and take care of your furry loved one while you are away. I would recommend her to stay with your pets and to treat them like her own.”
20. Laurel S.
