“Rasika was such a lifesaver for us. She stepped in last minute over a holiday and took incredible care of our dogs. She brought them treats, left the house spotless, and sent us daily updates and photos - which honestly did wonders for my anxiety haha. You can tell she genuinely loves animals, and our pups were so happy and relaxed when we got home. We’d book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Elle was amazing! She has an awesome list of questions that she made sure to get answered so she really understood the needs of our pets. We have a very anxious and shy dog, and she was very patient with her and allowed her to come out of her shell on her own terms. She took amazing care of both our dog and our cat, was very communicative and sent regular updates, and was overall great! I will absolutely rebook and would recommend her in a heartbeat.”
“Leslie was the most amazing Petsitter! She kept us updated on our pups, sent us ton of adorable cuddle pictures and left the house spotless. She even kept the chickens happy 10/10. Definitely would recommend!”
“This is the third time Paula has looked after the boys. She is so good with them! Paula always provides detailed updates and the cutest pictures. I really appreciated her help during this lengthy stay. 10-Stars!! The boys love her.”
“Jewel was great with my senior pup, Missy! She even found some creative ways to get her to eat, which I’m still doing because it worked so well. Jewel truly cared and I can’t recommend her enough! I was so nervous to leave Missy behind with someone other than family, but she was great and provided updates while I was away.”
“Dina was fantastic with our pups! She was communicative and sent lots of pictures during her stay. She left our place so clean and the pups really enjoyed spending time with her. We will certainly be using her again in the future.”
“Jaydn was amazing for house sitting and watching Meatball over the weekend! This was our first time leaving him, and she kept us informed with texts and pictures, which definitely put us at ease :) I highly recommend her if you want your pup to be treated like her own!”
“Arantxa was a wonderful sitter. She kept my dogs on their regular routine and sent consistent, cute updates that gave me peace of mind. I also appreciated her taking the time to have a meet-and-greet and a trial walk before my longer trip. Knowing my dogs were cared for so thoughtfully made it easy to relax while I was away.”
“Kimberly did a great job with my 11 year old dog, Abby, who requires alot of attention and potty breaks. She sent lots of updates and pictures. I had great peace of mind while out of town. Definitely recommend to others and I hope to book Kimberly in the future.”
“Mo was really great with my dog, Bandit. Bandit is a Pomeranian with a lot of “agency” and Mo was a great person to have here for a dog that can be difficult at times. I know Bandit loved Mo as when I changed the sheets on his bed, Bandit immediately jumped on the sheets as he missed Mo!”
“Kate was wonderful! Our two crazy dogs loved her and she made them feel so comfortable. She was attentive, communicated extremely well, and took excellent care of our house and dogs. Thank you!”
“Brittany took great care of my two nervous pups. It was a last minute booking as my other sitter had to cancel. She was quick to respond and come meet us. She’s trustworthy and respected my dogs wanting their space.”
“Jillian was so amazing! She took great care of our anxious pup and our home. Everything was very clean and Zinnia was a very happy girl when I came home.”
“Shanda was a wonderful sitter for our dog Lukas. We went on a 10 day vacation and each morning we received daily video and photos, as well as thorough updates regarding his health and their activities. I really appreciated Shanda's excellent communication, consistent promptness, and overall common sense. I can't say enough about how good our experience with Shanda was. She'll definitely be the first person we contact the next time we need a pet / house sitter.”
“This is the second time we have used Jena as a dogsitter for our Great Dane and she’s been great! Our dog seems happy and the house is clean when we get home. Thanks Jena!! :)”
“Our dog does not like people other than my wife really. But she took to Christine on day one and was climbing into her lap that night. It is such a relief to know someone who gets along with our dog is taking care of them. Would definitely hire again!”
“I hired Kelsy to dog sit / home stay for my 8 year old German Shepard mix, Ora. She did a great job and left my place as I left it. Would definitely ask her back.”
South River City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Paige was amazing with Eddy. She was super communicative the whole time which gave me a lot of peace of mind while we were away. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Eddy loved her! She was also incredibly trustworthy and left the house spotless, which was very nice to come home to. Would definitely recommend her and looking forward to booking her again!
We were very happy with Jessica! She took really great care of our pup. She was super patient with our dog who can be a little nervous with new people. She gave her the time and space to get comfortable and eventually my dog really got close to her and loved being with her. She sent me updates about coco and also pictures. She was super communicative with me, which I really appreciated. We will definitely have her stay with coco again in the future!
We feel so lucky to have found Alexa! She took amazing care of our pets, including giving medication to our very unhappy cat, managing our two cats who are still learning to live together, all while taking care of our dog as well. She went above and beyond in every way and treated our fur babies like family. The updates, photos, communication, and level of care were incredible. She stayed at our home and left it cleaner than we left it. It’s such a relief to find someone you trust completely with your pet — we will absolutely be repeat clients!
Without a doubt, the most qualified sweet person ever to help watch your loved one. She won’t be on and above to help with my very senior dog. Setting up accommodations to make me and him feel at ease. I will absolutely be hiring Mariana again and again. From her excellent communication skills to her deep love and knowledge for all pets she is by far one of the best sitters I’ve come across! Thank you again for everything, Dexter already misses you.
Jewel is the best! She was so patient with my two dogs, both of whom are very nervous / flighty with new people. My boy shuts down the most and just wants to hide so he’s never let a sitter walk him which limits him to the yard anytime I’m gone. Jewel has such calm and grounded energy and she earned his trust and got him out walking on her first stay. Such a relief, as Kanoa lives for his walks. Communication was great - I got daily updates and photos for both dogs. My home was also immaculate upon return.
Yuliia did an amazing job watching our five-month-old puppy and housesitting for five days/four nights in our apartment. She left our place clean and tidy, and she kept us updated with pictures the entire trip, which really eased our anxiety about leaving. Before the trip, she asked good questions to ensure she knew everything prior to us leaving. Our pup is young and a handful, but Yuliia kept her entertained the whole time. She also takes great photos, which is a bonus :) Definitely recommend!
