“Saya was amazing! She helped me when I needed someone to look after my pups with short notice! She was great, super knowledgeable and a great communicator! Absolutely will use her again for future trips!”
“I HIGHLY recommend David. He is thorough, thoughtful, and follows instructions well. He is clean and respectful and my puppy loves him. We will be using David every day.”
“I always feel at ease knowing my pets are in good hands with Elena. Elena is intelligent, caring, and professional. She has provided the best experience for me and my cats since joining rover!”
“Milo was super happy with Katherine, i will definitely book her to visit him on my next trip out of town! She was also super flexible with the key exchange, both dropping them off and picking them up, appreciate your help!!”
“Madison is an amazing cat sitter! My cat is extremely shy and rarely lets anyone pet her, but Madison was able to earn her trust and even get some pets in. She followed all of my instructions perfectly, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and cleaning up, and she went above and beyond by vacuuming my home. I could not be happier with her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable sitter.”
About: Hey there! I am the mom of a 2 year old Silver Lab (Maddux) and 3 year old Dutch Shepherd (Hooch). Both my babies get along with other dogs great. I’ve grown up with multiple dogs so I’ve taken care of and been around dogs my entire life. I am surrounded by a wide variety of dog breeds on a daily basis because I work in an environment where I’m able to bring dogs to work. I am open to watching any breed or sized dog. I understand the concern of leaving your fur baby with someone you don’t know and would love to help. I am an active, loving, responsible individual who just really wants to watch your dog if you’ll let me :)
“This is the first time I have left Boo with someone other than my sister. I can’t thank you enough for all the time you spent with her and how much you got her to play and be active! I guess I was getting her the wrong kind of toys. She very rarely plays with any of her toys; I probably play with them more than she does, just trying to get her to interact. I am so happy I have found someone to watch & spend time with her so I can travel. I will definitely use Gaby again!”
“Sylvia was fantastic. She handled our kittys’ meds and special diets perfectly and our cats were so happy and grateful to have her company while we were gone.”
“We had never used Rover before, but were told by others to schedule a meet & greet. From the moment my husband and I met Leigh, we knew she would do a great job taking care of our cat. We came home to a clean home and to a cat that was obviously well taken care of. We received daily updates through Rover as well as photos. Rover should be proud to have Leigh representing its company.”
“Amazing , she definitely took care of Zion made sure he was fed had water and even turned on the AC. She is great and I actually am booking her again . I didn’t have to worry and could be at peace at work knowing my pup is being taken care of”
About: I’ve always loved animals! I’m not allowed to have my own while I’m renting but I enjoy playing and getting to know all that I get to meet! I am currently a pilot working on my hours! I get to make my own schedule doing that so I have plenty of time to add taking care of animals into the mix. Keeping the animals schedule consistent is how I like to keep them safe and also keeping a good eye on them since they are unfamiliar with me.
“Sariah treated our cats like her own, they were very loved and well taken care of. Instructions were clearly followed and I loved all of the updates I got while we were away! Highly recommend her to care for your fur babies :)”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats (also rabbits and chickens!). I always loved them ! Later, I had my own cats for more than 10 years but sadly he passed away. In France, I took care of my neighbor's cat and also my friend's dog (a beagle) when they needed. Also been a lot with my brother's dogs, for walks, feeding and cuddling them. I'm used to give meds to cats because mine was sick. Also, I'm a volunteer at the Best Friends Animal Society in Sugar House. Be sure that you'll receive tons of pictures of your beloved ones, that I'll play with them and pet them a lot. By the way, sorry if I say hello to them before greeting you :) Hello, I'm Agathe, 32 years old. I'm from France but I'm here in SLC for 18 months. I'm not working so I have a lot of free time. I live in Sugar House so I can easily walk into this neighborhood or take the buses if farther. I can give meds to cats and easily change their litter boxes. I'm really careful and aware with other dogs. Obviously, if you have specific instructions, I will follow them perfectly.
“Bridgette was communicative, friendly, and made sure to take her time with my two kitties! They are always sad when I’m away, but Bridgette does her best to make them feel a little less lonely :) thanks for taking care of Juno and Minnie!”
“Casey was absolutely wonderful - I cannot recommend her more highly! She was so kind, attentive, and compassionate while cat sitting for us. She sent wonderful photos and updates throughout that made me so glad that our cat was in her capable hands. I could tell that she gave my cat such great attention, playing with her and engaging her when she was being shy. She sent great photos that showed how much my cat loved getting pets from her and it made me frel at ease to see that my cat was getting such love and care while I was away. Casey went above and beyond throughout the entire experience, including navigating a situation that arose with our pet incredibly skillfully, compassionately, and generously. I would choose Casey again in a heartbeat and recommend her in the highest - I would trust her deeply with the care of any animal of mine!”
“Celine was absolutely spectacular. She’s a wonderful communicator who gets back to you quickly and professionally. And I can 100% tell my cat loved having her. She made my vacation experience a lot less stressful and I hope to be able to hire her again sometime.”
“Rachel is the best! She is so attentive to my cats and making sure they have the right food, their meds, and making sure their space is clean and inviting for them. They love when she checks in on them when I’m out of town, and I can rest easy knowing they are being taken care of by a trusted animal lover. My dog loves her walks with Rachel, and is given the love and exercise she needs!”

This is the first time I have left Boo with someone other than my sister. I can’t thank you enough for all the time you spent with her and how much you got her to play and be active! I guess I was getting her the wrong kind of toys. She very rarely plays with any of her toys; I probably play with them more than she does, just trying to get her to interact. I am so happy I have found someone to watch & spend time with her so I can travel. I will definitely use Gaby again!
Etiana was amazing! She did such a great job and I felt so comfortable leaving Neko in her care. From the initial meet and greet, to each drop-in visit I was always impressed with her professionalism and you can tell she loves animals so much. I would totally recommend her to anyone!
Saya was amazing! She took Dakota last minute without hesitation, followed every request, and kept us updated the whole time with tons of great photos. Dakota was cuddled and well cared for. Saya is clearly experienced and attentive. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!
We are SO GRATEFUL to Lisa for her kind, thorough care of our 3 cats. She was new to our cat family this trip, but put so much effort into learning our guys’ preferences and idiosyncrasies - and it showed, our little social tux, who is usually sad and lonely when we are away, seemed so happy with her! We will absolutely ask her to care for our cats in the future.
Jesse was excellent as always :) Our cat Ollie hates when we leave town, but I know he always loves seeing Jesse. We always know he is in good hands with him and will always book with him when we are away. Always on time, always makes sure to give him all the attention he needs, and even taught us a new activity called “treat fetch”. Also, he sends us the BEST photos of Ollie (one of his update photos is our desktop wallpaper). Thank you Jesse!!!
We are so grateful for Christine! My husband and I now both work full time and we needed help with caring for Mika during the day. Christin has been amazing; she's timely, responsible, and Mika thoroughly adores her. It’s reassuring to know Mika is in such great care and we would highly recommend Christine for any services needed!
