“Melissa was absolutely amazing with Max! She kept me updated with photos and messages, so I always felt reassured that he was happy and well cared for. When I came home, Max clearly had a great time. I couldn’t recommend Melissa more highly—she’s a natural with dogs and truly goes above and beyond!”
5. Christina S.
“Christina is amazing! I was very cautious about hiring just any Rover because I live in a busier area where there is a lot of traffic - I wanted to make sure that Max and Bailey would be safe during their walks. Christina was amazing with their walks, and I could tell she's very careful and loving with the pets. Our babies absolutely adored her, and I did not worry once based on the updates and photos I received while I was away. We will continue to use Christina as our regular sitter as our babies love her, and we do too!”

We had a last min cancellation for our original pet plans, and even though we were unable to give two days notice she made it work - truly grateful! She’s very personable and our pets were immediately comfortable with her. Our dog is a senior and requires extra care but Stephanie was a champ about it! She’s very upbeat and did a great job; I was not at all worried about our pets. ❤️ We will definitely use her again in the future- thank you so much!!!”

15. Daniel C.
“We were out of the country when our dogsitter became seriously ill and was unable to take care of our pets. By the time we found out there was a problem with our dogsitter, our dogs had been without any human contact for 24 hours. We contacted Daniel through Rover. He responded immediately and was able to go meet the dogs, sight unseen, inside of 2 hours. Daniel instantly bonded with our 3 & 4 years old golden retrievers. He sent us a photo of himself cuddling our pups in just a couple hours of our first contact with him. We were able to explain our routines with him over the phone and with the detailed instructions we had left for the other dogsitter. Daniel made sure our pups were well loved, feeding them twice daily, administering medications, providing water and walking them for 30 minutes every day. His scheduled allowed him to be with the dogs the majority of the day, so they were never lonely. He took good care of our house while we were gone and was respectful of our property. We definitely would not hesitate to have Daniel take care of our dogs again in the future.”
16. Anna N.
“Anna was incredibly sweet and amazing with our dog, Bubba! She kept us updated on him while we were away and made us both feel super comfortable with the whole process (first time using Rover). Can't recommend her enough!”
17. Lillian M.
“Lillian - off the charts great! From meet and greet to her well-timed messages and photos, we remained at ease while away from home knowing that Lillian was taking care of our pets and the house. She earns my STRONGEST reputation through fear that she will not be available when next we are looking for pet care and house care.”
18. Alyssa M.
“She is amazing and incredibly kind. My dog has separation anxiety, and she was very gentle, patient, and understanding while taking care of him. Amazing job.”
19. Isabelle M.
“Very nice and personable, took care of our dog to expectations.”
20. Jennette H.
“Jennette stayed with our cat and dog during our 4-day trip to Disney World. I am always very nervous about being a plane ride away from my animals, but after the first day, I felt like they were in very good hands. Jennette is very kind and communicative.”
