“Danish had a wonderful time with Samantha! I got daily updates on their time together. Samantha is responsive, easy going, and great to work with. We are definitely going to book with Samantha again!”



“Jenna was AMAZING!! I felt so comfortable leaving my little Jasper with her in my my house for 10 days. Made my vacation worry free!! My dog was so comfortable with her and enjoyed all the cuddles. She sent me pics every day. Since Jasper is getting older, she was very observant of him and let me know anything she thought could be a concern with him. Will 100% use her again and referred to my sister already!!!”


“Penny was my favorite sitter so far. She was great at communicating before, during, and after the trip. She left my house almost better than it was before I left. But most importantly, she bonded with my cats. I felt completely at ease while away because I could tell by her messages and photos that she genuinely liked my cats. Bonus... She also has a sense of humor. I will definitely be booking with Penny again.”


“I was very nervous to leave my dogs, especially the one who was so scared. She was so nervous she would not eat. Paige worked with her and finally got her to eat. I appreciate her watching over them and taking good care of them.”


“Emily is the perfect dog/cat sitter! Communicative, loving and responsible. I have lots of anxiety over leaving my pups and kitty but Emily made me instantly feel relaxed and confident. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”


“Sergio stayed with our two big dogs over a very hot 4th of July weekend. I think it was more challenging than usual because of the heat and fireworks, but Sergio seemed to handle it very well, and the dogs and house were in good shape on our return. He sent us a few pictures along the way. Sergio seems great with dogs, is a very personable guy, trustworthy, and responsible. I'd book him again!”

“My dog is old and he’s pretty high maintenance. He needs medicine three times a day, and his appetite isn’t much these days. Haley was able to administer his medication and get him to eat, and I certainly appreciated all her efforts. I provided the instructions and she followed them very well. I came back to a very relaxed dog.”


“Chioma was excellent! She took wonderful care of my dog Carl, sent pics & video of him over the weekend & was great with communication throughout. Carl was so bummed when she left, I know he had the best time with her. Thank you so much!”


“Ann took care of our kitty Midi, and it went great. I appreciate the daily updates which included photos and videos. We will definitely reach out to Ann to look after Midi again.”


“Sharron did an amazing job watching Walter our bull dog. We highly recommend her as she is reliable, great at communicating, and overall she does very well with taking care of dogs. Thank you, Sharron, for watching our boy and the house. You did an amazing job.”


“This was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving our dogs with anyone but our family. Lacie was super lovely, updated us all throughout the stay, and our pups were both settled and rested when we came home. Would defianntly recommend and utilise Lacies amazing dog whispering skills again!”


“Susan stayed with our dog Suki for 2 weeks while we traveled. She was very easy to coordinate with and diligent in providing daily updates and photos. She is very trustworthy, and her expert care allowed us to enjoy our travels without worrying about our baby at home. I would definitely recommend her for pet care and will certainly book with her again if when we travel.”


“Bonnie was extremely patient and kind with our dog who was being a little more reactive than normal in her new house. Bonnie recommended a couple of things to get our dog used to her, including a scheduled walk, before we left for our trip. We always felt our dog was in good hands!”


“Rae did a fantastic job caring for our two kittens over the long weekend. She was prompt, kept in communications, and followed instructions. Our kittens loved having her around. We will definitely be using Rae for our next trip.”

“This was my first time using Rover and we hit the jackpot with Lecia! We have an older dog that needs medications and special food so it gave us peace of mind that she was our sitter! Lecia was also very accommodating to do an extra feeding when our plane home got cancelled. We would definitely hire her again!”


“Jeremiah is a wonderful sitter and so reliable. He’s stayed and cared for my dog a couple of times now and my mom’s dog too. Great updates with photos and the dogs are clearly happy and well cared for when I get. So appreciated!”
