1. Natalie D.
“Natalie was wonderful and able to handle the craziness of our teething puppy. She also sent updates with pictures during the day. Definitely recommend!”
2. Ericka D.
“It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience! Ericka sent regular pics and updates. When we got home our dog was happy and content. When we’ve had to use something more like daycare in the past, he just gets really stressed and barely eats. We will be using rover again in the future for sure.”
3. Heather H.
“Heather was absolutely amazing from her meet & greet many months ago to the end of her stay last week. Our sassy senior poodle can be a little grouchy & a picky eater, but he warmed up to her so quickly. She followed all instructions for his care and the care of our home perfectly and then some - she really went above & beyond. Her updates and photos were super cute & made us feel at ease. We returned to everything just as we had left it, and most importantly, a very happy dog. Thanks Heather!!”
4. Sadie S.
“My first time having someone stay in my home with the pups and we couldn’t have chosen better. Sadie came for a few drop ins to meet the dogs and they took to her immediately. Sadie kept in constant communication with me and left the house as she found it. I was happy to see the pictures of very content pups.”

10. Traisaun L.
“Traisaun is great. We have 4 active cuddly animals and even when we come home they will go and see if Traisaun is still here! He clearly treats your pets the way you would treat them (and sometimes even better because he puts up with more antics than I do!)”
11. Olivia G.
“Olivia G. provided an awesome house-sitting experience for my fur babies! They loved her a lot and she took really great care of them and went above and beyond. She was also very communicative and provided me with lots of updates. We will definitely be booking again with Olivia!”
12. Ellie & Quinn M.
“Excellent! Really great job looking after my dog and cat. I think the pets were kinda bummed when we got home to replace Ellie and Quinn, honestly.”
13. Darra R.
“Darra not only does a good job with Bronson, but she also is extremely respectful of our apartment. She cleans without us ever requesting, and it’s so nice to return home to a clean apartment after a trip. Would easily recommend Darra’s services to others.”
14. Kristen M.
“Kristen was amazing! Did such an awesome job watching our guy in home for us. Would highly recommend!!”

17. Maddie K.
“Maddie is awesome. She’s house and dog sat for is while the family was on vacation to Disney. We messaged her with questions prior to booking a and she responded quickly.”
18. Jeaninne R.
“Jeannine was GREAT! First she texted me and gave me a lot of information about herself, which I really appreciated. Then, I changed the time of my booking, which she didn't mind at all. She was early to my apartment, and didn't care that I put on "Sesame Street" for the cats to listen to (LOL, my cats LOVE Sesame Street). She sent me pictures, and the cats warmed up to her quickly! It really put my mind at ease having her here, and that let me enjoy the concert I went to! She was fabulous! If I ever need to be gone more than an hour or two again, I know who to call!! Thank you, Jeannine! :)”
19. Jessica L.
“I know when Jessica is staying with my senior dog and spunky cat that they are getting her full attention, which includes regular and thorough communication, medical oversight, play and stimulation, and the love and hugs they're used to. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”
20. Christine B.
“Christine always takes the best care of Phoebe and Lauren, they are happy and content when I return, I always get pictures of the good time they have while I am gone. This is the third time Christine has taken care of Phoebe and she can be a handful, but Christine handles it all with all smile!! Thank you for being great! We have already booked our next trip, it is so easy to know Christine is in control.”
