“Neil took great care of our two dogs and pet rabbit while we were out of town. He accommodated us on short notice and made me feel comfortable while I was away. I know our pups received so much attention and cuddles while we were gone. It's also the first time I've gone out of town, and our stubborn senior rabbit didn't venge-pee outside of the litter box after I returned (he has a habit of staring at me while doing this to voice his displeasure). 10 out of 10!”
“Stacey is absolutely the best - she took such good care of our dog!! We were nervous about leaving for a few days, but as it turned out we had no reason to be - she cared for him as if he were her own. We feel very fortunate to have found her.”
“Joanne immediately won over my pups, even my shy boy who usually takes his time warming up to someone. She sent me pics throughout the day and even extended her stay because one of my girls was nervous because of a thunderstorm. My dogs love her which means everything!”
“Megan did a phenomenal job taking care of Kyla while we were out of the country. My other sitter cancelled last minute due to an injury to her leg 2 days before leaving. Megan stepped up last minute and gave Kyla the extra attention and love that she needed. We felt completely comfortable while away thanks to the updates about her condition, plethora of pictures, and prompt replies! She even went to the vet to pick up additional meds and provided an update about the vets suggestions. We could not have been more comfortable, appreciative, and overall overjoyed with how well she took care of Kyla. We will absolutely be requesting her services again any time we cannot bring Kyla along!! Thanks for an incredible job!! Also, she took exceptional care of the house while we were away, going above and beyond as if it were her own. We cannot thank you enough!”
“Christina was great with our two little yorkies. She was on time, very friendly and we could tell she loves animals. I can always tell how good a sitter is by my pups actions when I return. I must say they were so happy, full and looked like they had a teddy good time. I most certainly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a good, honest and reliable sitter”
“We've used Elizabeth a number of times. She's always great. Our dog is so happy to see her when she shows up and we come home to clean house and happy animals. She does a great job of communicating”
“Lyn was timely, kind, and did a great job taking care of our home and our three animals. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Our fur babies loved her and our high anxiety dog was glued to her side the whole time. He felt so comfortable with her.”
“Hannah was very communicative and seemed to have a deep care for all of my animals. I received regular updates, as well as updates when anything unusual occurred (which only happened once, thankfully!). I felt secure knowing my animals were being looked after by Hannah.”
“Natalie was wonderful with my babies! She sent pictures and updates regularly (and they always looked happy/ like they were having fun), and left my house spotless. I would absolutely recommend her, and hope to use her again for future pet sitting/house sitting needs!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Gabriel. We met with our dogs, to see how they would be together and he and I talked about the weekend I needed puppy-sitting. Instead of either staying at his apt or mine, because she is a very recent rescue, I asked if he could keep her at his place during the day but then have all 3 of them come and sleep at my apt at night. I did this so that she would know that even if she gets dropped off somewhere else, she is ALWAYS coming back to her home. This worked out very well and he is just the most caring person when it comes to our dogs. I don't travel very often, but I would like to confirm that he is a magnificent pet sitter and I hope he gets lots of business because he deserves all good things!!!”
“Natasha was amazing with our senior pup! She was very communicative and took plenty of pictures and updates during our trip. I would highly recommend her as your next pet sitter!”
“Juliann watched our cat and dog while we were away for a long weekend. She did a wonderful job keeping us informed by sending photos and giving us regular updates. Highly recommend her.”
“I know Levon works mostly with dogs and I was very happy he was available on short notice (I had another rover sitter cancel within a week of my trip) to watch my sweet Anna. She can be shy and she was comfortable with Levon and he was able to give her the medication she needs. He was responsive and kept me updated. I would book with him again!”
“Elizabeth was communicative and reliable while I was away. She sent regular updates, took great care of my pup, and even watered the outdoor plants, which I really appreciated. I came home to a happy pet and everything in good shape. Thank you!”
“Tresalyn is fantastic! She house sat for us and took wonderful care of our dog, cat, chickens and fish while we were gone. She took the time to get to know our animals ahead of time with a pre visit and was so kind and considerate when we met. She made sure she understood the needs of our high energy, anxious dog and gave her plenty of exercise and lots of love while we were away. It was clear to us when we returned that she had cared for our home and pets with deep love and consideration. She also sent pictures and updates regularly while we were away, which we greatly appreciated! We are so grateful we found her! We can’t recommend Tresalyn enough!”
“Blair did an incredible job caring for our 3 pets while we were out of town. I was mostly afraid to leave my German Shepherd, as he can be so energetic and sneaky, but she took him on long walks and played with him. She updated us with photos and summarized how their day went. Our house was just as we left it. Thanks Blair!”

Swannanoa pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kara is awesome and would highly recommend her care for kitties! She took great care of our kitties and home, spotless when we came back from a trip where we also had a health scare. Coming back to happy cats and home was so good. Our kitties were stray/ferals when we got them, having a calming presence when we’re away keeps them close, happy and safe. Kara was so easy to work with, sent updates at a perfect interval through the week, and is warm and kind, so we immediately felt at ease. She’s a fantastic pet sitter and professional!
We had a great experience with JoHannah! She was able to spend a lot of time with my 5 pets while we were away. She sent many photos and was quick to respond when we reached out. The house was clean and the pets were calm when we returned from our trip. Would book with her again. Thanks JoHannah!
