“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”


“Sky was very honest and communicative about my dogs being stressed due to unexpected construction in the townhouse next to mine. She hang in there with the dogs during a stressful day. My house was very tidy when I returned which I also appreciated.”


“Rachel was amazing! She did a great job with our cats and dog. We unexpectedly needed a second overnight pet sitter, she was quick to respond to my request. Thankfully, it worked with her schedule. It was a relief to know someone familiar with our pets was able to care for them again.”

“McKenna did an outstanding job with Archie! She was very communicative, shared photos, suggested some fun things to do with him, etc. Wouldn't hesitate to book her again!!”

“Brooke house/dog sat for us for a 2 week vacation to Europe and I was so nervous to leave my baby for so long but Brooke made it so easy! She sent multiple updates with pictures EVERYday and I could tell she really enjoyed her time with Rosie. She even brought over some enrichment toys for her and she really enjoyed those. I travel for work and am sad that I can’t take Brooke with us everywhere we go! She was great and definitely recommend her!”

“Penny was absolutely AMAZING and we are so very thankful for her help watching our babies (2 dachshunds). If you know anything about a dachshund, they are loving, needy and can be barky and particular about new friends. We had previously never left our dogs with anyone other than family, but needed to find a sitter while we were away for our wedding for a week with family. Penny blew it out of the park from the moment we did our meet and greet. She has such a warm and calm presence that our dogs instantly became comfortable around (which is no small feat when you’re meeting a dachshund!). She gave us twice daily updates while we were away with plenty of pictures that we were so happy to see. It was clear through her messages that our pups were getting plenty of love and engagement. We were quite worried about our finicky pups and Penny eased those worries and went above and beyond. We would 10/10 recommend Penny and look forward to using her pet watching services in the future 🙏💗 Thank you so much Penny!!! (From the dogs and us humans)”

“I cannot recommend Marykay highly enough! Once again, she has gone above and beyond while watching our little dog, River, during our recent trip. Not only did she keep him incredibly happy and well-cared for, but she also managed to keep our house impeccably tidy. Her dedication and care are truly amazing. Thank you, Marykay, for being so wonderful!”

“Lucy was wonderful to have for a house sitter. She communicated well and kept me up to date while I was traveling. She watched my cat malfoy and he loved having her. She also watered my plants for me! Lucy is very kind and I felt so comfortable with the house in her hands. Highly recommend!”

“Mercy was amazing!! We feel like we found our new dog/ house sitter. She regularly gave us updates and sent photos. Our dog is a senior and Mercy didn’t mind giving Moxie her medicine and taking her for her short walks. We already thought she was great and then we got stranded in Detroit on our way home. We texted her last minute and asked if she could possibly stay an extra night and she saved the day and said yes. We highly recommend her and will use her services again.”

“Robert was super accommodating for a short-notice weekend with my pups & cat. He was super communicative and took great care of them all! Would highly recommend Robert!”

“Lilah is now our go to Rover for home stays when we are out of town! She checks in when she arrives, sends pictures daily and takes our dog for a walk. We will gladly have her stay again!”

“Iya was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy to have worked with Iya. She did great with our dog, and it was such a relief knowing she was able to be at our house with him!”

“Brandon did a great job with my big teenager rescue dog, who is super sweet but still working on some aspects of being on leash. I appreciated how communicative, clean, and non-invasive Brandon was in the whole process. I’m thankful that Rover connected us!”

“Tracy's 2nd time sitting for our admittedly complicated cat family. All scoundrels alive, well, and accounted for = 5 stars. Will be looking for her again the next time we skip town. Thanks Tracy!”

“Taj was able to step in last minute and stay with my cat! She went above and beyond and was able to help monitor him on some new medicine. I felt so safe leaving my pets with Taj and loved recieving daily updates and pictures! I will definitely reach out to her next time I head out of town.”

“Anna was a great sitter. She arrived on time and kept us informed of their behavior while she was sitting. She stayed until we got home and summarized her visit and our dog's behaviors. Our pets seemed to like her. We would definitely rebook with Anna.”

Standish pet parents share their Rover experiences
Rachel took such phenomenal care of Kody. She sent regular updates and pics which helped us know he was in great hands and she kept Kody booked and busy, which helps tire him out so he's less worried about our absence. Rachel was a wonderful sitter who I'd absolutely book again!

Cody house sat for my three Pomeranians. This involved processing a fairly-involved set of instructions prior to the visit, as well as working with the three dogs' different needs and different levels of separation anxiety during the visit. Added to this list of responsibilities were a number of protocols to follow regarding the house itself, it being fairly old and replete with quirks. Cody did a great job on all accounts. I'd recommend them to anyone seeking pet care, and would be happy to have them care for my dogs again.
Grace was wonderful with our dogs and helped them feel completely at ease while we were away. She stuck closely to their routines, communicated consistently, and clearly cared about making them comfortable and happy. She was also incredibly kind, respectful of our home, and an excellent house guest. We would absolutely hire her again!

Tiffany has dog sat for me several times and my doggo is in great hands every time. She is very attentive and sends lots of updates, as I requested. She also handled an emergency with my dog while I was out of the country, which I am very grateful for as it was difficult and stressful to manage from overseas. I'd highly recommend her!

Savannah housesat for our senior kitty recently and was a real gem to work with! She was patient and kind and asked specific questions about care beforehand. When we had an unexpected house issue just before her stay, Savannah was understanding and flexible as we sorted it out. We received plenty of updates and photos while we were away, and felt assured that our kitty was in good hands. We would absolutely rebook with Savannah in the future!

Lucy was fantastic for us. She communicated well with us before and during the stay. She seemed to follow the directions we gave her extremely well and asked questions about stuff and kept notes for herself too so she could make sure everything was followed. When we got home, the house was as clean, if not cleaner, than when we left it. We were extremely happy with her and the booking.
