“My first time using Ericka to watch my dog Toby and I'm very pleased with the job she did. She sent me pictures of Toby each day which I enjoyed receiving. Toby requires eye drops 5 times per day so it's a bit of work to care for him. Also pleased that the house was in good order when I returned. I hope to use Ericka again in the future.”
“Alyssa came over to meet our animals and also met our kids. She immediately clicked with everyone. Our son loved her as much as our dog did haha. She spent a lot of time with our dog nova and also gave our cat all the cuddles. Our dog has some history of anxiety and can be very hesitant with new people but she was very welcoming to Alyssa. We appreciate the time she spent with our animals while we were away. Will definitely book again!”
“Maddi was amazing! She sent plenty of photos and was very communicative. She was extremely flexible and accommodating as I had to add an extra day on to the original stay, and I am so grateful for all of her help. When I came home, my pets were all super happy and in great moods!!”
“Natalie was wonderful and able to handle the craziness of our teething puppy. She also sent updates with pictures during the day. Definitely recommend!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matilda was absolutely wonderful with our babies! They were kind, reliable, and clearly cared for our pups like their own. We came back to 4 happy and well-cared-for pups—couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend!”
“Our pets love CK! He gave them lots of attention and communicated well with us during our overseas trip. We found our home to be in excellent condition upon our return. We will definitely reach out to CK in the future.”
“Mariah was awesome! From the moment she met our dog I knew she would be a good fit—Stella was at ease and loved her. You could tell from the pictures she sent that Stella and the cats were happy and comfortable and that she was taking great care of them. 10/10 would definitely book again!”
“Jayne took great care of our dog and bunny when we were away overnight! The pets were happy and the house looked great when we came home. We will be happy to have her sit for us again in the future.”
“Maura was great- very communicative and sent lots of photos of my dog, Bentley which I appreciated it! I look forward to working with Maura more in the future!”
“Wallis did an amazing job taking care of Olivia. My cat came down with a UTI right before I had to go out of town. Wallis kept me updated on her progress, and was very communicative and helpful when Olivia gave us a little scare and had to go to the vet. Olivia is doing very well now, and I’m really grateful that Wallis took such good care of her.”
“Sophie was great with our pets! She sent photos and updates regularly and took our dogs on walks! They had a great time while we were away. Definitely recommend and will be using her services in the future :)”
“Evan did a wonderful job watching my two rescue babies and our home for 5 nights. He is kind, reliable and detail oriented. His communication is clear and timely. I was able to relax while I was away because I knew they were in loving and capable hands. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Dolly was great! This was the first time I had her watch my two pups, in my home, while I was on vacation. She sent several pictures while I was away. You could see in the photos just how much my dogs loved her. It was heartwarming to see that she allowed them to snuggle with her like they did. My home was left in perfect condition. I will definitely have Dolly watch my beloved pups again.”
“Regan is great! She was super communicative and made sure all was well with our senior diabetic cat who needs shots twice a day and our hyper young cattle dog. Very grateful for her!”
“Jessica was an amazing dog sitter! Our dog Nico is reactive and takes awhile to get used to be people. Jessica scheduled multiple visits with us to spend time with Nico so that he could be comfortable with her. She is amazing at reading dog body language and never pushed Nico into situations that would make him uncomfortable. We felt so comfortable leaving Nico with her! She sent us pictures of Nico during her stay and kept us updated on how things were going. We would definitely use Jessica again!”
“Annie was great! We have two very demanding Siamese cats, and she did a fantastic job with them. She even did some training with them, which we told her was completely optional. Definitely planning to hire her again in the future”
Southside Flats pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maura did great with both Ollie and Olive. Ollie is a bit sassy at times and Olive can be very clingy and she did great with both. Maura was also able to make arrangements if she needed to be gone longer throughout the day. I appreciated the updates while I was away along with the goofy pictures of my pups as well as the video. Will definitely plan to book again when I need to go out of town! (:
Connor is excellent and we're looking forward to having him watch our dogs again. One of our dogs, Bowie is fearful of men, and Connor was very patient and went above and beyond to make sure Bowie was comfortable and still got his walks, food, and treats while he got used to him. He kept us up to date and sent lots of great pictures, and by the end of the weekend Bowie had a new best friend :)
Jasmine was so kind, thoughtful and attentive to my cat. This is my first time having a sitter and it was 10000X better than boarding. Bailey was able to be at home and not have a huge distraction to his routine. As a senior this is so valuable. Also this gave me so much peace of mind, I felt like when boarding I was constantly reaching out for updates, never got photos and even had few bad experiences which made me more anxious. Jasmine was so proactive about reaching out, sending photos, asking questions and staying on top of all his needs. I would of course recommend her to anyone and she’s really made me feel so comfortable about having someone in my home and relying on them to take care of a member of the family!
Gretchen took care of our clingy and anxious dog while we got married — we wanted Lima to be well taken care of while we celebrate our special day and Gretchen delivered!! Lots of cute pictures throughout the day, we are super thankful for Gretchen for taking care of our dog
Thanks to Alex for taking good care of our pups! Right before we left, one of them got a bit sick and we delayed our trip. Alex was flexible with the changed schedule, attentive to the medical info, and administered her medicine well while we were gone. Our other dog, who is high energy, was calm and happy when we got home too. We received plenty of pupdates throughout the trip. Would book again!
