“Haley was great! Responsible, frequent updates, great pictures and we could tell our 2 boys were loved and will cared for. We will definitely use her again if available for our next trip. Highly recommended!”
“Kimberly came to our apartment for drop-in checkups on my two cats for two weeks. She did a great job communicating and making sure the cats and apartment were well taken care of. She also showed that she was willing to go the extra mile to make sure they got everything they needed if necessary. We really appreciated her help and would hire her again for future help!”
“Kaylee took such great care of our kitty while we were away on vacation. She always provided great checkups with lots of sweet photos when she checked in on our little guy. If you are looking for someone that loves your kitty, Kaylee is amazing! Thank you so much!!”
“We've booked cat sitting with Lexi for the second time and she was exceptional once again! She takes care of pets and the house like her own, outstanding sense of ownership and respect. Would highly recommend.”
“I cannot recommend Desiree enough. She took care of my two cats like they were her own and they absolutely adored her. Even with how busy the holidays were, she still went above and beyond every single visit. She sent updates, paid attention to their little quirks, and made sure they felt safe and loved. Coming home to calm, happy cats was the best gift. If you are looking for someone who truly cares, she is the one!”
“Johntel was great! She and Kiara were instant friends on the meet and greet. She was prompt and sent me pictures of her drop in visit and I've already booked her again. Our puppy had been spayed AND had dew claws removed a week earlier and it was nice to know someone reliable and who loved our puppy would be checking on her.”
“Kianna did an amazing job. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for the right fit for your fur babies. She did everything we asked and more. By the end of her visits our kitties seemed to grow very comfortable with her.”
“Kara was kind and sweet with Macy. Super easy to work with, sent updates without me even having to ask, and clearly cared. Macy is on the tail end of life, and having someone like Kara give her love dampens the blow if being gone.”
“Tiana did a wonderful job taking care of our kitty! She kept us updated on how he was doing which was a load off of our shoulders while we were away. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”
“Ashley and Michael were absolutely amazing with our dogs. Our living situation isn’t ideal for dog sitting, but they picked up and made it seem like no issue at all. Will definitely be using them again. They took plenty of pictures and allowed our dogs plenty of exercise while we were gone.”
“Ariah did a great job ❤️ & followed my instructions to my preference for my lab!, I was worried mainly about him getting his medication but she kept me at ease during my time away! I will definitely use her again 😁. THANK YOU AGAIN!”
“Isela was great with our dog Cocoa and cat Missy. She was great with updating and sending plenty of pictures. This was the first time I’ve used rover and was a little nervous but she was great and would recommend her.”
“Jayda was absolutely amazing! She sent me pictures and updates on my animals! You can tell she really cares about animals. She even brought in a package left on my porch. I would definitely invite her to watch my animals again ❤️ if I ever need to.”
“Elva was very responsive. She texts frequent updates on my fur babies. She shows up on time and ensures all of my animals have all of their needs and wants met. She made sure everyone was happy and safe. She answered any questions I had promptly. She shows true love and care for animals.”
“JESSICA IS THE BEST!!! Not only did my cats receive extremely fantastic care, but she also made sure that the entire visit from the moment she came into the house from the moment she left was very kind and caring!! She went above and beyond our expectations, will DEFINITELY be using her again!! 😁”
“Lyric was great! We booked last minute and she was able to come meet the dogs and cats the same day we booked. She was flexible and dependable! We will definitely be using her again next time we need a Rover!”
