Angelina was new to house sitting for our 2 large and highly energetic dogs - and she did fantastic! She was highly engaged with the dogs and keeping us informed. We received lots of picture updates and good communication. We have already rebooked her and would recommend to others!

Our dogs were well taken care of with Ginny, and she has such a calming presence that I think really fits with what our dogs need.

Sev was THE BEST! It was the first time we were ever leaving our puppy alone/without family, and she put all of our nerves at ease. She was extremely friendly, professional, communicative, trustworthy and took the best care of our little guy. She stayed at our place and left our apartment in pristine condition. Will definitely be trying to work with her again whenever we need a sitter - we can't recommend her enough. She's as good as it gets!!

Maria was an excellent caretaker of my senior dogs and a wonderful house guest. My dogs are seniors and can be particular, and Maria handled them so well. She was attuned to how they were feeling and asked questions when needed. I loved getting all the updates from her while I was on vacation. And to top off a great sit, Maria had a very light footprint while staying with my dogs. My apartment was just as I left it and everything was well cared for.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Lauren is a top tier dog sitter. She took more than excellent care of our giant Great Dane puppy, going above and beyond to satisfy his crazy energy. She also cleaned stains he made, cleaned his food bowl without us asking, and prepped some kongs for us before leaving. She gave us a million updates a day and so many cute photos and videos. She’s one of my go tos now for dog sitting!

Payge is amazing ! She kept up with a rambunctious 2year old german shepherd for a weekend staying at my house. She was very communicative with pictures and left the house clean and straightened up. I'm delighted to reach out to Payge again soon.

I can't say enough good things about Noelle as our rover sitter. She took amazing care of o Cooper and our apartment over the weekend. Not only was she super attentive, but she even treated our pup to a special pup cup, which he absolutely loved. When we came back, everything was spotless and our dog was clearly happy and well-cared for. It was such a relief to know we could count on Noelle to handle everything so well. Highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone reliable and caring!

Haley was above and beyond amazing, she took care of our beloved senior Pomeranian Domino who is 15 years young. He has a lot of special needs, and requires constant attention along with oral medication and a prescription diet several times per day. Haley even got him through a flare up with his diseases and remained patient throughout. Haley went to great lengths to ensure we had constant update by text and with photos, which helped us stay comfortable all weekend given all his Individual needs. Haley gets a 10/10 from us, and we would highly suggest her to any clients looking for assistance, even if your pet has special/specific needs.

Finding an individual that you put your faith into to watch after your four legged family members isn’t a task that we take lightly! Especially owning a rescue pup, and having a demanding job that meant I could be out of the house for the entire day, I had to make sure I found the right fit. Alex is the perfect dog sitter and walker. Her love and connection with animals is abundantly clear, as she is kind, attentive and every time her name is mentioned in our house, Milo gets so excited and sprints to the door. Living somewhere where there are only open (non-fenced) dog parks, I needed someone I could trust to watch Milo and protect her if need be. I never have to worry with Alex. She’s also been great at watching and looking after our two cats when we are out of town. Cannot say enough positive things.

Kathryn was great! She was reliable and provided consistent updates and pictures of Dexter throughout her stay. She even changed and washed my sheets which was extremely sweet and above and beyond. This was my first time using Rover and my experience with Kathryn was overall very seamless and made me happy I took the leap. I look forward to booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.
