1. Taryn T.

“Taryn was wonderful! She was kind, respectful, and made me feel like taking care of my kitty wasn’t just a job. She made him feel really at home and he can be pretty shy. I loved seeing the daily pictures. She was very flexible with my schedule as well which I so appreciate!! Would definitely recommend to anyone and would book again for sure. This was my first time using Rover and it was a lovely experience with her.”


2. Alexandra C.

“Alexandra is a lifesaver! She really cares about my kitties and made herself available immediately when I had recent urgent travel. Thank you thank you!! 💗”


3. Arrica W.


“She did great with both of my big dogs! Left the immaculate, and took great care of my dogs!”


4. Marissa M.

“What a fantastic experience! Marissa looked over my two cats during our extended honeymoon stay. Marissa was so easy to work with and allowed us to add four additional days onto our honeymoon thanks to her flexibility and professionalism. I truly cannot give a high enough rating for the experience and piece of mind she provided.”




5. Ron T.


“Ron did an amazing job with my dog and two cats! He was extremely communicative and always sent photos. He was also very patient while I tried to sort out a door lock issue from a thousand miles away!”


6. Caitlin C.

“Caitlin was wonderful at taking care of my two spoiled enormous dogs! This is the first time we've used a pet sitter and we will be using Caitlin's services in the future. The dogs were more relaxed being at home and frankly I was relaxed on vacation. She gave them medicine they needed and kept us updated with lots of pics and it was truly a great experience.”


7. Carmen & Katie C.

“Carmen and Katie were amazing! They were always on time and sent us lots of (happy) pictures of our furbaby. Ping-Pong is elderly and needs meds twice a day. All meds were dispensed as directed and cuddles were given liberally. We will use them again and I highly recommend them! I guarantee you and your furbabies will not be disappointed!”


8. Megan J.

“Megan is our fave! Always willing to come see our Roxie girl, even booking her last minute! We’re so sad she’s moving away. She will be missed!”


9. Anna C.

“Anna has done drop-in visits for my dog while I am at work and she always does an excellent job! I appreciate the communication and I know Boogie appreciates the visits and pets. Will definitely book with her in the future!”


10. Vanessa R.


“Vanessa was wonderful with our 2 frenchies! She sent updates on their bathroom schedule and photos and even cleaned up our puppy's crate and play area! She was very reliable, respectful and responsible!”


11. Jennifer P.

“Jennifer has been amazing! She's done an excellent job working with my reactive dog - she's patient, strong and kind which has been the perfect blend. She goes the extra mile, putting the care of my clingy little buddy a top priority!!”


12. Ava K.

“Ava was flexible, punctual, and thorough. She was polite and helpful! Would request her help again.”


13. Shannon C.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Shannon. I had her watch my French Bulldog numerous times and I knew my dog was always in wonderful hands. Shannon made sure my dog felt comfortable and safe in her care. She also would send me pictures, videos and messages throughout the day, which was so reassuring. It was clear Shannon went above and beyond to ensure my dog had plenty of playtime, walks and a cozy place to relax. If you’re looking for someone who truly treats your dog like family, I highly recommend Shannon! I will definitely be having her watch my dog again!”


14. Willow P.

“Absolutely amazing! Willow is so nice and you can tell she really cares about animals. She sent the cutest updates on her check-in's including pictures and little stories about what my rascals got up to. I was so nervous leaving my pets for days for the first time ever but she made all my anxiety disappear and made sure Doug and Darlene were well taken care of while I was away. 1 million stars!! Thank you, Willow!!”


15. Laura B.
“My dog can be a handful—he’s large, strong, and always ready to play—but Laura handled him like a pro. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend to anyone with a big, active dog who needs both structure and love!”


16. Grace N.
“Grace's passion for animals shines through in her work, making her an ideal choice for anyone in need of a dog sitter or dog walker. She is reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate. Grace has a natural affinity for pets and is dedicated to providing safe, loving, and attentive care. Her commitment to customer service ensures that both you and your pets are satisfied with her services.”


17. Michaela M.

“First time using rover, Michaela was great and I felt like my kitties enjoyed their time while she visited them! Michaela really listened to what I usually do for the cats and learned their personalities. Plus she was very patient with me and when the schedule needed to change after booking, she ensured I got the proper refund without me even asking. 10/10 recommend”


18. Samuel R.
“I’ve left my dog with Sam several times. My pup is also always so excited to see Sam. He’s fantastic and always gives me updates with pictures. I will continue to leave my dog with Sam.”




19. Erin F.


“Erin took wonderful care of our pups. Put my mind at ease while I was out of town. The dogs love her and had plenty of excercise. Erin is great to communicate with and we will definitely book her again!”


20. Amber B.
