“This was our first time hiring Iva, and everything was wonderful. She was professional, communicative, took great care of our kids, and left our house as if she had never been there. We have already scheduled Iva again for our future travels!!”

“Alyssa took care of Luna at her home while we were on vacation for four days/three nights. Luna took to her immediately and it was clear that Alyssa has a lot of love and experience with dogs. She was loving and caring and sent us a photo of Luna twice daily with a sweet and fun caption. Alyssa has a wonderful dog, Ace, and Luna and Ace played well together in her spacious fenced in back yard. We were comfortable and enjoyed our time away, knowing that Luna was loved, well taken care of and also well exercised. She had a sweet playmate with Ace the whole time which is a real bonus! We will definitely ask Alyssa again to take care of Luna, when we have to travel without her. Thank you Alyssa for taking care so wonderfully of our Luna !”

“Dylan took excellent care of our pets while we were out of town. We met a couple weeks prior and discussed what was needed. He took time to get to know us and our pets and answered all our questions. He provided updates and pictures each time he came by the house. ?????”
“So happy we had her stay at the house with our girls! They were happy when we got home and everything in the house looked great! I appreciate the detail reports and pictures as this was the first time leaving our girls for this long and without family taking care of them. Such a great job thanks! They are looking forward to seeing you soon!”

“This was my first time using Rover, and Thomas completely exceeded every expectation I had. As someone who is very protective of my dog, I was nervous about trusting a new person, but Thomas made the entire experience incredibly easy, reassuring, and honestly, better than I could have imagined. Before even accepting the booking, he came by to meet Jax and instantly put both of us at ease. He listened carefully to every instruction, took my concerns seriously, and asked thoughtful, detailed questions to make sure he could care for Jax exactly the way I do. It was so obvious how much he genuinely cares about animals and wants to get it right. Throughout the stay, Thomas sent amazing updates and photos that showed just how happy, exercised, and loved Jax was the entire time. He went above and beyond to keep my pup engaged and comfortable. Knowing Jax was in such great hands allowed me to actually relax — something I honestly didn’t think was possible when leaving my dog with someone new. He stayed in my home and was incredibly respectful of my space. Everything was exactly as I left it, and he followed all of Jax’s routines perfectly. It felt like Jax got a little vacation of his own. Thomas gave me a level of peace of mind I didn’t think I’d ever have with a sitter. My initial apprehension about leaving my dog with someone new is completely gone and that is entirely because of him. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Thomas. He is responsible, kind, attentive, communicative, and genuinely exceptional at what he does. If you’re looking for a sitter who will treat your dog like family, look no further. Thomas is your guy, and I will absolutely be using him any chance I get.”


“Communicative, respectful, caring, and most of all trustworthy. Joli was a pleasure to have. This was my first time leaving my dog with anyone besides my parents, so as you can imagine I was nervous. She was willing to work with my schedule and I could immediately tell my dog was her highest priority. Joli house sat for me as well, and she treated my home with respect and went the extra miles. Joli took the initiative to proactively give me updates on Chip and their adventures, and it made me so happy! Chip had the best time!! The icing on the cake was that on my flight back I was delayed and could have missed my connection. Joli was very willing to stay with Chip longer if I did miss my connection. She made sure I made my connecting flight and made sure I made it home. I will exclusively be using Joli every time I need a puppy sitter and I highly highly recommend leaving your animals with her. She will spoil them with attention and affection while you are away!”

“Lisa and Dylan did a phenomenal job!!!!! They updated us daily with photos and our dogs seemed very well taken care of. We will definitely use them again!!!!”

“Shannon was awesome! She took great care of our dog and 2 cats while we were out of state for a long weekend. She really tried to keep them all in their usual “routines,” handled medications accordingly, and gave them all lots of love and attention. She sent us daily pictures which I appreciated so much and left our home exactly the way we left it. She brought in our mail too! Overall we’re very thankful we found Shannon and plan to use her again and again!”

“Elise was very professional with our dogs and us humans. She also did a wonderful job as a in home sitter to our two larger dogs. When we got back from our weekend trip, the house was as we left it and the dogs were very relaxed. I will definitely be reaching out to Elise with any future pet needs.”

“April is simply the best! She cared for my cat while I was on a 2 week vacation and I could not recommend her enough! She went above and beyond and provided the utmost care for my little guy!”

“We booked Zlata at the very last minute and she went above and beyond to help take care of our kitties. One of my cats is a senior cat who needs close supervision because he recently had a seizure. She waa able to stay with him all day and make sure he was OK. She gave us the ultimate peace of mind while we were on vacation. She kept our house clean and tidy, and she sent us lots of pictures and videos, which was really nice. We will definitely book her again in the future! She exceeded our expectations.”
“Barbra once again took great care of my pup and my home while I was gone. My pup was happy to play and snuggle with her which is always a good sign of a great visit.”

“Elise stayed @ my home with my Callie girl for 5 days & did an outstanding job!! She checked in sending pictures several times throughout the days & let me know what they were doing. I trusted her completely in my home. Very nice young lady & will recommend her to anyone to dog sit their fur babies”


“So happy to find Marlene! We just moved to Florida and needed an in home pet sitter for our 17 year old dog. Marlene not only took exceptional care of our dog (sending us updates and photos daily) but did several other favors that were much appreciated, as a result, our trip away was worry free. Highly recommend and will absolutely use her again!”

“Jessica was great! My boys loved her from the moment they meet her. She’s really good at keeping you updated with your pet’s via messages and pictures. I’m very happy with how accommodating she is, and her professionalism. Will definitely be using your services again. Thank you!”

“Zach was a very conscientious and reliable dog sitter. He sent pictures regularly with updates. Pogo was well taken care of while we were gone for a week. Our home was very clean and tidy when we got home. Thanks Zach”


“Alexis accepted our request short notice and gave us so much comfort in knowing our little one was taken care of. She came over next day for meet and greet. She sent photo and text updates with our pup. We felt very secure and safe having her in our home, taking care of Myla.”

“Reanna is excellent. We have three dogs each with something that makes them special. We have an 80 pound pitbull with leash reactivity, a nearly 14 year old senior pit mix whose age is definitely showing but he’s still a sweetheart, and a beagle (enough said). Needless to say we’re very cautious with choosing a dog sitter and Reanna took wonderful care of our three pups, including house sitting, walking all three individually, and giving pills. I highly recommend her.”

South Pasadena pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emilia was absolutely amazing with my pets. She kept my dog overnight and made sure she had plenty of backyard time, love, and attention. She also visited my cats every day for a few hours and made sure they were comfortable, cared for, and never lonely. Her communication was great — she sent pictures and kept me updated through each day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I felt completely confident that my pets were in great hands. I would 100% book her again.

Lauren was great, very friendly, very accommodating, easy to talk, does what she is asked to do and more, we are very happy that she was a dog sitter, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog or cat sitter. Sincerely, Craig & Alda Very Happy Customers

Joli is amazing!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about her. We had her watch our dogs in our home for two weeks, and she was like family to them. Every photo she sent us we could tell our dogs were happy and fulfilled. She kept their routine and made sure they had exercise and lots of cuddles. We are so grateful to her, and we highly recommend her as a sitter.

This was our first time using Rover and we were so impressed with Julia’s exemplary service. We were camping at Fort DeSoto and needed someone to check in on our Yorkshire Terrier while we took the ferry to Egmont Key. She took great care of him and provided lots of updates. I highly recommend booking with her!
Niko and Willow were so happy with Aimee during her first visit we had her back! Aimee took excellent care of the two dogs and the house they allow me to live in. Aimee has proven herself to be 100% reliable in regards to caring for the dogs and we will absolutely have her back. She’s quickly becoming our most reliable and trusted sitter.
