1. Scout Y.

“Scout was wonderful with my two cats. Although one was elusive for the 4 days we were gone. The other one is very social and enjoyed her time with Scout. Scout gave her plenty of play time during her visits. I really appreciated Scout being able to take care of our girls on such short notice. Will definitely be using her again. Thank you.”




2. Emily L.


“Emily made us instantly comfortable thanks to her background with animals and her warm, friendly demeanor at our meet and greet (I might be a bit much when it comes to leaving my girls). She was flexible and accommodating when our plans shifted and our girls were well cared for. We would definitely book with her again!”




3. Amber B.


“This was my first time to using Rover. Amber did a great job with my German Shepherd ( Atos ). She sent me pic from each visit which made me feel comfortable that Atos was well. She was very quick to respond and flexible with scheduling. Amber is very professional and a wonderful dog sitter. I will use her services again. Definitely recommend having her care for your dog.”

“Emily was very honest, great at communicating and loved our puppy as much as we do while we were not there! Highly recommend!”


8. Angelica S.

“Angelica is trustworthy, communicates well, and did a great job looking after my five cats while I was away. I had asked for periodic updates, and she sent some very cute pictures of the ones who weren't hiding. :) When I came home, everything was neat and clean so I didn't have to worry about anything except settling back in after my trip. I will definitely book Angelica next time I go out of town!”


9. John D.

“John has been taking care of both my cats for the past 5 years intermittently. He is incredible with my animals and I always feel comfortable knowing they are in his safe care. The cats love him and it's great having someone my husband and I can trust to watch our fur babies while we go on vacation/ out of town. I highly recommend John to all my friends/family for their pets as well.”

12. Jaclyn J.
“Jaclyn took great care of my cat! Was very happy with her and would definitely rebook!”




13. Tina P.

“From the first visit to the last set of photos, Tina has been absolutely amazing. This was the first time I’d been away from the cats for more than two days, so I was a bit worried. The first pictures Tina sent were her and the cats playing/nuzzling. I was able to rest easy, knowing that I’d get my daily pictures, and that the kitties were happy. I will be using her again next time I go on vacation.”


14. Mai S.
“Mai is a very responsible pet sitter. I had her take care of my puppy for 3 days and was thrilled with her work. She asked all the right questions and followed all instructions given to her and provided me with updates as the days went along. I recommended her to a friend who needed their cats watched and they were just as happy as I was! I highly recommend her”


15. Annette G.

“Annette is so professional, accommodating, and a great dog photographer. We love her updates on our dogs, and we love how she even works on reinforcing good habits in her short stop-ins. Highly recommended for any and all of your dog sitting needs.”


16. Michelle L.

“Michelle was great and took wonderful care of our pups. I loved getting the pics and updates as to how they were doing while we were out of town. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Michelle again.”


17. Jeweliana R.
“Jeweliana (Jewels) is the best dog mom I know and am confident she will treat your pet with the utmost diligence and love she does her own. Jewels' dog, Bailey, is on a strict routine of walking, being fed on time, playing, potty and thereby has grown in to one of the most well behaved, loving dogs there is. I've seen Jewels and Bailey's relationship blossom due to Jewels' unwavering responsibility as a dog mom and thereby recommend her to care for any dogs that require her assistance on Rover.”

“Lauren helped us have some ease of mind being at work all day. She was punctual and tentative”


20. Lindsay R.
“Lindsay has watched our Porkroll - my 21lb chihuahua/Shi tzu for about a year and a half now, ever since we adopted him. Whenever we are away for sports for the day or a weekend getaway we always call Linds. She’s so great when it comes to stopping by or having to spend a few nights at the house. Porkroll gets SO excited when Lindsay comes through the door, I know he’s going to be well taken care of when she comes! She’s the first person we always call. She knows Pork’s routines by now & they’ve become best buds. So great to trust someone like Linds with your fur-baby.”
