1. Robin S.

“I was really nervous about using Rover and someone I didn't know to care for my dogs and my house but am very pleased with Robin's service. The dogs were well cared for and the house was spotless when we returned home. Robin is very sweet, reliable, caring and conscientious person. I will definitely use her again.”

3. Theo E.

“My puppies had a wonderful time with Theo, and I received daily updates and pictures. They were comfortable, had lots of fun, and got lots of cuddles. She is able to handle their rambunctiousness with care and understanding. Highly recommend, great communication, easy to work with. I will definitely be asking for Theo again! I think she is the perfect dog sitter!”

7. Pazia H.

“Pazia did a great job house sitting for two nights; when I came home my house was clean and my cat was happy! Pazia is also very quick to respond and sends great pictures. My cat takes oral medications and Pazia always lets me know if there are any concerns. I would definitely recommend their services.”


8. Samantha T.

“Sammi took most excellent care of Skittles!! He was happy and healthy when I returned from my trip and the house was in perfect condition as well. Great communication from Sammi, including some fun pictures of Skittles enjoying playtime with her. I would definitely use our services again. I felt very comfortable leaving my kitty and house in her care!”


9. Alexa E.

“Alexa is fantastic with both my dog and my cat. She doesn't just walk my dog but will sit with each of them and provide them the much needed socialization and affection animals require. Her care and attentiveness is apparent. Thank you Alexa.”


10. Vanessa M.

“Vanessa really put our minds at ease while watching our dog while we were out of state for the holidays. She took care of our Boxer with just as much attention and care as we do and he absolutely loved spending time with her. I can tell that she is a dog lover just like myself! She was also very communicative, tidy, even made home made dog treats for our dog to celebrate Christmas.”


11. Grace W.
“Grace was wonderful with our senior dog, high energy puppy and cat. Excellent communication and she left our home cleaner than when she arrived! She took care to understand each pet to make sure they were comfortable.”


12. Alison S.

“Alison was the most wonderful pet/ house sitter I have had. She took such great care of my dog and house for 12 days. She sent me pictures of my pup which was so appreciated. She even cleaned up her poops! Wow no one has ever done that.”


13. Aaliyah J.

“Super communicator! Aaliyah was great at giving updates and keeping us in the loop about our two goofball dogs. Provided photos, double checked on our return times; had a great experience working with her and would recommend highly”


14. Melody P.

“Melody was fantastic with my Corgi, Nora. We went to Canada for four days, and the whole time Melody kept me apprised of how my girl was doing. We received lots of photos, and I could tell Nora looked super happy with Melody. We just got home and Nora is super chill. This was our first time with Melody, and I plan on being a return customer. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided to our cherished girl.”


15. Tananda R.

“Excellent experience with my pup. She arrived a few days early to meet my dog, asked great questions and then remained in contact during the weekend sending photos and updates.”


16. Lucas G.
“Lucas has been around cats and dogs all his life so he knows dog language. I think you judge better when some one is not required to do something and they do it any way. When not obliged to, i noticed Lucas taking care of the dogs, going on walks, grooming them and even talking to them for no reason. Maybe it is Luca´s calm and relaxed attitude that is transmitted to the animals that make them like him and also feel comfortable. I think this relaxed attitude is his forte when dealing with all animals.”


17. Stephanie G.

“Stephanie is amazing and I'm so grateful she agreed to care for my animals for the weekend. I have a handful of pets with different needs and Stephanie managed everything perfectly. I highly recommend hiring Stephanie for your fur babies.”




18. Bryan B.

“Bryan was our first dogsitter ever and we were vacationing for almost 3 weeks so needless to say we were quite apprehensive about leaving our dog and home with a stranger. My first meeting with Bryan put us both very much at ease and reading his previous reviews helped. We had Bryan over for a couple short visits to get to know our Sadie a bit. We felt even more at ease after that. Bryan was great. He was comfortable with our Sadie (a Staffordshire Terrier that can get pretty rough and tough during playtime), gave her lots of snuggles, and he took her out for walks and car rides which she loves. He also brought in the mail, took out the garbage and coordinated did the same for our close neighbor who was out of town for a few days. We received texts and emails a few times also. It was sooo nice leaving our pup in her own home instead of kenneling her! We appreciate Bryan so much for making that possible. Will definitely request his services again when needed. Oh, he also left our house spotless!”


19. Wendy B.
“Wendy is our angel! She is so responsible, kind, trustworthy, and most importantly truly loves our dogs. She is the best. I highly recommend Wendy!”


20. Adelaide D.

“Good afternoon Rover Friends, it is my pleasure to provide a very positive review for Adelaide who house sat this last weekend for Chidi and Ellie, two young labradors. Adelaide put in the time up front to come by and meet the dogs, get acquainted with the program, took the dogs for a walk, and generally was up to speed when house sitting started. Attentive, regular check ins, updates, and good dog watching and walking skills. House was left in good shape and the puppies are happy. All good and much appreciated! John-”
