“Will was a fantastic sitter. He shared photos & videos of our dogs which made us feel connected while we were away and trust they were in good hands. He left the house in pristine condition. Would absolutely recommend him and work with him again when we have a need!”
“A very thoughtful and caring cat sitter! Was given detailed updates that let me know my pet was being well taken care of. Will be rebooking Daniel for future cat sitting!”
“We had a great experience having Gigi stay with our two little dogs. She gave a daily update with pictures and really cared for them well. One of our girls is very fear based and Gigi was very patient with feeding her and allowing her to have her own space. We would highly recommend Gigi for pet care.”
“We’ve been using Rover now for, well since it was created, and have had mostly good caregivers for our dog. Over the years we’ve probably used 15 or so sitters. Part of being satisfied is not expecting perfection, so we never do. If you keep the house from burning down and our dog is safe that is our basis for satisfaction. We have had sitters arrive late, leave early, bend the truth, and even take supplies from our house, so when you find someone whose nature is to genuinely care, to be sincere, and to deliver a service that is better because her standard is just better, it sure makes you grateful. Someone taught her long ago that communication is important, that pet owners want to be in the know, so they don’t have to worry. Julia is simply the best provider we have experienced on Rover. She just gets it, and that means so much to us. From arriving when she says she will each and every time, to letting us know how our dog was doing, to caring for our house and belongings as if they were her own. She even took the time to make sure our return was on time and to make herself available of if we were to be delayed. For selfish reasons, i dont want anyone to book her, but she deserves to be the busiest Rover pet sitter ever and im sure she will be. Thank you Julia!”
“Shannon was great! She communicated throughout our trip, was very respectful of our house and took great care of our babies! As a bonus the pictures she sent of them each day were so cute! We will definitely be using Shannon to pet sit in the future. Thanks Shannon!”

“Harim was wonderful and took such great care of our girls! She was quick to respond, proactive, respectful, friendly, and very loving with our 2 fur babies. Highly recommend using her!”
“If you’re looking for the best and sweestest sitter, I highly recommend booking Alyssa! I have two fur babies, one being on medications and bladder issues, and she had no issues catering to their needs and handling their schedules with ease. She was also great at updating me while I was absent, making me feel at total ease and reassured that everything was being taken care of! I can’t praise Alyssa enough for taking care of them so amazingly and can say she’s definitely my top choice to take care of my girls!”
“Tamarr was so amazing with our three pets. She sent us regular updates with videos and pictures. I truly felt secure that my home and pets were safe while I was away from home!”
“Maya is a great communicator and I really love that she kept my house clean. Most of all I am happy with how my cats acted when I got home. They were glad to see me and they were well adjusted. I don’t think I have to worry about getting cat revenge because Maya took care of everything she was wonderful.”
“Madison did a great job caring for my dogs and house. The dogs were happy and well cared for and the house was neat and as I left it. Very happy with experience and will definitely request Madison again.”
“Krishna did a wonderful job with our 3 year old pitty. He got PLENTLY of attention and was let out and played with every day! We also had Krishna house sit for us which was really stressful 1.) leaving our puppy, 2.) leaving someone else in charge of the house. After meeting her within 5 minutes we were comfortable leaving not just our puppy but the house in her care. Thank you for a great job. Church now has another best friend!”
“She did an absolutely fantastic job! I got updates everyday about how my dog was doing. She even went above and beyond by making sure that the house was put back in order when we arrived and that my dog was cleaned off well after playing in the rain.”
“I have a rescue dog with a sorted background. One of her issues is fear. She’s been with me now 9 months and I needed to visit family. I was so concerned how my girl would handle me leaving. Well! Marie is a pro and had my dog adoring her in no time which was a huge relief. Marie communicated several times a day and I could see my dog was totally relaxed. When the sit ended, my girl kept waiting for her to come back ❤️. A perfect example of success!”
“Rosa was amazing with Ollie. She updated me as needed. She was very kind and patient with Ollie as she takes a little while to warm up to people. Ollie loved her! I will definitely be booking again when I need!”
“Mark is an incredible sitter. Always makes sure Harry feels comfortable while we’re away (and makes us comfortable with constant updates). House was in perfect condition upon our arrival home.”
“Nicole was amazing with my dog. She was communicative and sent lots of photos and videos during the stay. Super friendly and made me feel at ease while I was away.”
“Sherry did an excellent job, she checked in to make sure everything was still on schedule for day and time I requested. She was punctual and followed feeding instructions to the tee. Karma seemed very happy and not stressed like usual. I would highly recommend Sherry for pet sitting, we will definitely Use her services again!”

Cedell was awesome with my pack. She learned each of their personalities, walked them, and played in the yard. She sent multiple updates and pictures a day while we vacationed. We had no worries with her staying at our home with our dogs. We will use her again when needed. Highly recommend!
Makayla is wonderful! I was worried about leaving my sweet kitten for the first time and for an extended period while being out of touch on a cruise. Makayla put me at ease from the first interview with her sweet, positive energy. After talking with her, I realized how capable and responsible she is, beyond her years. She is very responsive, was willing to visit ahead of time and get a rundown of the house, care and vibe check with my baby, and maintained great communication for the duration of the stay. She completely put my mind at ease while I was away and I came back to a calm home/cat. I will be re-booking her again!

Absolutely best rover ever. I’ve worked with a lot of rovers in the past with several moves between states. Aidaly is incredible professional, energetic, and an overall S-tier rover. I plan to keep her forever if I can. My pup peanut loved her the second they met. She took care of her daily with teeth brushing constant updates on my work trip and supports incredible love and care for my child she takes it to the next level. There’s a book called unreasonable hospitality and she reminds me of it because she goes more than the extra mile. She’s an instrumental part of peanuts life now :)
Gino and Tiffany took great care of Lacey and Lois. Gino was great with the girls. He sent me pictures every morning as well as every night. Mt girls looked great. They were happy and had a good time with Gino. I look forward to working with Gino and Tiffany in the future. I recommend them highly to take good care of your pets.
Alison put me at ease using Rover for the first time with my two reactive, relatively needy dogs. She is reliable, thorough and communicative. My dog has Addison’s and had tummy issues start a few days before my trip. Alison was fantastic at retaining my over the top 6 page sitter guide that I typed up for my dogs. She always let me know that my dog took his meds, which I deeply appreciated as a chronically concerned dog mom. She was thorough and attentive so much that she noticed when my dog had spit out half of his pill. She sent photos each day and my dogs seemed so at ease with her. She has such an amazing energy. She is sweet and not afraid to be the leader when my dogs need it. Highly, highly recommend. She was kind enough to dog sit on Christmas. I can’t thank her enough. We finally found someone we trust our dogs with.
Rebecca was amazing for a week over Christmas with our two pups. They just adored her and she sent us pictures and videos throughout the trip and updating us on how they were doing. She went above and beyond to have the house ready when we got home. ❤️ I would highly recommend her for a home stay!!
This was the first time I had ever had to find a dog sitter. I was pretty nervous as my 3 pups can be a lot of work. Mary Kate went above and beyond! She sent me photos and kept me updated! She spent a significant amount of time playing with my pups and taking them on extra long walks! I can’t say enough how grateful I was to know they were in good hands!
