“Leslie stayed and watched our 3 pups for a week while on vacation. Cannot say enough great things! I received daily updates and pictures with all my babies looking so happy and well taken care of. Will be using Leslie for all my pet needs! 🐶”


“Many thanks to Paula. She took great care of our pets. Our dog had his walks, and our reclusive cat came out to be petted. The house looked great also. We would happily recommend her to care for your fur babies and your home. Thank you so much!”

“Kendall did an excellent job house sitting! She was very responsible and knowledgeable. She kept the house very clean and treated my pup like her own. I’ll be using her again for my next vacation! Thanks Kendall!!”

“Our pets love Maya! So do we! She takes GREAT care of our pets, and always shares pictures and communication. We have already used Maya twice, and plan to use her again in the future!”
“Amber is great! Our dog needs someone who wants to play and be active. She also helped us with a few other things we needed. We will be using her to dog sit again.”

“Justin was amazing. We moved back to TX after 25 years working for the government in the NOVA DC area and we were hesitant on who we could trust with our babies especially since one had been very sick after we found out she is allergic to either bee stings or fireant bites. Justin was very careful with our high maintenance little guys and our German shepherd absolutely loved him. We have trusted our babies with other services and it was stressful coming home to a disaster of a mess. We came home with a peace of mind knowing our home was taken care of along with our babies. We have plans to use him for ever long he is available to use.”
“Abby was super easy to work with. I needed a sitter last minute and she was quick to communicate and confirm. She took great care of my dog, Fiona, and of my home in my absence. I look forward to working with Abby in the future and absolutely recommend.”

“I would not hesitate to recommend Noah to any pet sitters. He stayed at my home and watched my two birds for over a week. Was very responsive to my messages and followed care instructions. I have to deeply apologize from my original review. I had misplaced an item and thought the pet sitter might have taken it when he left. Two weeks later the item has been located and all is well. I apologize for any difficulties that my original review may have caused.”

“We were lucky enough to have Dez as a house sitter this time and it went amazing! She took awesome care of Roxie and Ditto and took great care of our home too! She’s so kind and considerate! She followed all instructions left for them and even went over and beyond spending time with them, especially Ditto as he is a little timid but he warmed up to her so well! He got out of his comfort zone a bit :). And of course Roxie adored her, she took full advantage of all the cuddles and rubs! If you come across this review and you’re a little nervous/anxious but you need someone that’s trustworthy to care for your fur babies, I highly recommend Dez!!! She will be our go to person moving forward. Thanks again Dez 💕”

“Laurie did a fantastic job taking care of my dog, Jack Sparrow, while I was out of town. She provided me with frequent updates on how my little guy was doing and took excellent care of my home. I wouldn't hesitate to request her again and would give her the highest recommendation to any of my friends and family!”

“Bertha is amazing! Hands down the only person I will trust Gatsby to. She sent me messages and photos each day and I was able to FaceTime. I felt more at ease knowing he was having a good time. The sweetest person ever.”

“This was an easy experience. Rachel communicated well, walked the dog and did everything we asked and then some. She has a fantastic personality and is a very caring person. We will definitely use Rachel again and we definitely recommend her to others that are considering Rover's service.”


“Lauren stayed with our baby over Thanksgiving. I could tell from the pics and her demeanor when we got home that our Gracie was comfortable and happy being in her own house with Lauren's company. Our house looked as though she had never even been there. Everything was great and we will definitely be using Lauren again!”

“Abigail did a great job watching our fur babies! They can be high maintenance sometimes and nervous around new people, but they warmed right up to her during our meet and greet, and she did a great job taking care of them!”

“I would give Adam K. a 10 if I could. He took perfect care of my little Twiggy. He kept me posted with texts and pictures, which gives me such a peace of mind since little Twigs has a big personality, but only weighs 4 lbs. I came home to a clean house and happy pup! You cannot beat that!”

Southwest pet parents share their Rover experiences
I highly recommend Lauren to sit for your fur babies. During the week that she spent sitting for Lucy she kept me updated daily and included photos which made feel at ease and able to enjoy my vacation. She came by a couple of weeks before to do a meet and greet and I really appreciated how she took the time to let Lucy get comfortable with her. Lucy is 15, her sight and hearing are deteriorating and Lauren worked so well with her. She was very respectful of our home and left it in perfect condition. I will definitely book with her again.

Adam was great! He was attentive and took great care of our dog. He followed our instructions for medication and walks.So happy we found someone we can trust with our baby. He communicated and updated us the whole time we were gone. We could tell my dog loved him and warmed up to him really fast. 10/10 Would recommend Adam.

Jordan and her boyfriend are such great and caring people. We will miss them tremendously as we are moving and I know our animals will miss them too. ;( They outsmarted our escape artist kitty keeping her home, took our pup on walks, and provided both animals with tons of cuddles. ❤️
