“Stephen was amazing! Easy to work with and outstanding communication about my cat while I was gone. It’s evident he is great with animals, and I appreciate him being so sweet to my pet.”
2. Brooke E.
“Brooke did a fabulous job caring for my pup Baxter in our home over the weekend. He’s very attached to his Mama and worries when a suitcase appears. Well, the photos Brooke sent me at each visit showed a very happy, playful pup who seemed to love her! I had a worry-free trip and Baxter made a lovely new buddy! My first time using Rover, and I’m hooked! I will 💯 hire Brooke next time I travel - she’s amazing.”
3. Alyssa S.
“Alyssa was the perfect pet sitter for us. She took care of all of our requests and responded to us very quickly. Even came out to our home for a meet and greet on her own time . How nice to be able to go out of town and feel totally comfortable knowing that our pets will be ok. We would highly recommend Alyssa to Rover users!!”

8. Debra L.
“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Debbie provided for my two cats while I was away. She was very patient, allowing my cats the time they needed to warm up to her, which they eventually did. I was given updates with photos and other details each visit. It was clear that she was attentive to their needs and genuinely cared about their well-being. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend Debbie. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future!”

“Megan has been taking care of our dogs for years. The dogs are so thrilled to see her! She knows exactly how to get rid of their energy and then feeds and love on them. She spends quality time making sure they are comfortable and ready for their nap/ bedtime when she leaves. I never worry about our babies (dogs) when Megan is watching them. You, and your dogs would be lucky to secure Megan to watch them in your absence.”

19. Julia K.
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for many years. Friends and family have trusted me to be dependable and watch their pets and take care of them while they are away. I have experience working in an animal hospital and am ready to provide your pets with a loving home away from home while you are away. I currently work from home and am available to provide your fur babies with what they need. I am able to take short breaks through the day along with a long lunch in order to make sure your pet is able to go to the bathroom and walks as much as they need. I have no other animals in the house so your fur baby will be comfortable being the animal of the house while they are here. Happy to let them roam free or crate them as needed.
20. Reba G.
“Reba went above and beyond to take care of my kitty over the holidays. She sent photos and updates every day, and I felt totally at ease while I was away knowing my cat was in such good hands. I couldn't recommend Reba more highly and look forward to booking her again!”
