“Atlas was great with our animals! Our Dog and Cat were both very well cared for. Atlas was a great communicator and sent us updates every day while we were gone, will definitely be utilizing her services again next time we are gone 😊”


“This was our first time having someone stay at the house and couldn't have asked for a better caretaker for our Lucy or our home. We rolled in after a week away. I can't overstate the value of walking through the door to a happy dog and spotless home. Above and beyond!”


“Anthea was very conscientious about caring for our cats and chickens. We received extremely detailed reports daily. When we returned, our pets were happy and our home was spotless.”

“Highly recommend Jayne! We had her come to our home to look after our two cats and dog. She handled all three with care and professionalism; providing lots of photos, updates, and one on one attention. I was a little nervous initially because we have a large American Akita that is very regimented, but Jayne had no problem following his typical walk/play schedule, and managing his handling. She was incredibly respectful of our home, making sure it was left in the same condition as when we left, and additionally watered our plants for us. She was very easy to work with, and her love for animals really shows! Will absolutely be using her as our go-to in the future.”

“Daisy took such great care of our dog Maebe during a week long house sit! Lots of walks and attention and the house was in perfect condition. Made me feel good about Maebe’s needs being met as she has some separation anxiety, and we were traveling to the East Coast. I would book Daisy again! 5 stars! ✨”

“Thank you so much, Shannon, for taking such great care of our pups! We didn’t worry while we were gone, and we know the dogs had a great time and were well cared for!”

“Hank loved his weekend with Molly! She sent regular updates and was thoughtful to be extra cautious given the high temps during her stay. We’d love to have Molly watch Hank again.”

“Maria was awesome and took amazing care of my dog while I was out of town! Not only did he absolutely love her, but I could tell he was in great hands the entire time. I really appreciated her updates and attention to detail. I’m looking forward to having her watch my pets again and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“Both Finnegan and Lucy love Philipp. He took great care of the both the dogs and the house while I was gone. I will definitely look for Philipp next time I need a sitter. Thank you Philipp.”

“Jasper and Jaydon took wonderful care of Muffin and my house! They were responsive, professional, and so kind and conscientious. I would recommend them to anyone!”

“Holly stayed in our home with our three large dogs. She even fed the fish in my aquariums! Upon our return the dogs were happy and healthy, the house was clean, and the aquariums were all in good shape. It was as if we had never been away.”

“Meagan was on time, took great care of our sweet girl and left our home tidy. She is very conscientious about care instructions and did all we asked including medication administration. We would not hesitate to hire again!”

“Peter is Fantastic! He was thorough in asking about my pets needs, as well as following requests and a schedule to ensure they got the right amount of exercise and care. He stayed at the house so it was comforting he was there with them the duration of the time he was caring for them. He sent detailed summaries of the day with pictures each evening. I would absolutely work with Peter again!”

“Alice took care of Gracie overnight for me, giving her a good walk and company. Once I showed her the house, she handled everything easily. When I got home Gracie was happy.”

“Elaine stayed with our pups at our house, and sent pictures and videos to put us at ease. We came home to two super happy dogs who we knew got all the love they wanted!”
“Kristen was a thorough and prompt communicator and awesome with our critters! Our anxious dog and cat warmed up to her quickly and she was able to navigate a troublesome toilet issue while we were gone. She is great and we appreciated her house sitting!”

“We highly recommend Cora to watch your fuzzballs. She showed up on time, was communicative, sent updates, and the puppy was very happy when we got home. Thanks Cora!”

Sunderland pet parents share their Rover experiences
Emily was so amazing with our two doggos! We felt very reassured with her looking out for them while we were away— it made our vacation even more enjoyable knowing they were so cared for and that our home was in good hands since one of ours needs medications and some special attention. I’m so glad we found her!
Laura House watched our baby Cheekies and she was absolutely amazing! Cheeks had the best time with her, and Laura sent us lots of photos and took her on tons of walks that she loved. She even cleaned the house, which was such a thoughtful and kind surprise. We will definitely be rebooking with Laura and Nicholas—they are truly amazing!

Even before the trip Samantha showed reliability and care for the two dogs. Daily photos and updates made the trip all the more better knowing they were in good hands and enjoying their time. Handling two dogs can be more of an ordeal but she managed to give meet their individual needs and schedules. Came home to two happy dogs; would book again for a future trip.

Rowan was great! He lived in our house for 10 days and took great care of our two dogs! He was very responsive and communicative and also immediately bonded with our dogs. He kept us posted of the few issues that arose while gone and the best part was that we came home to a very clean house. We would definitely ask him to help in the future. Thanks Rowan 🐾

Meleika was so wonderful! My pups loved her! They can really be a handful sometimes, and I get a little anxious leaving them, but Meleika handled everything beautifully. She was so on top of communication, sent pics every day, and really made me feel comfortable leaving for the holidays. She also stayed in my home with the pups and left everything super tidy afterward. I can’t recommend Meleika enough!
