“Marissa was kind, communicative, calm, and flexible. My flight home got cancelled and I had to rebook my return trip a day later. Marissa immediately agreed to extend her services when I told her what was going on. When I (finally) made it home, Peaty was happy and well-cared for and my apartment was pristine. Would work with Marissa again in a heartbeat!”

“Mark was incredible…he did overnight stays with our 11 year old blind, deaf pup without any hesitation. He is a great communicator and left the house in perfect condition. As this was a new arrangement, he asked questions to make sure something wasn’t out of the ordinary for our extraordinary pup, which I appreciate as he has truly had only 1 sitter in nearly 11 years! I cannot recommend him enough and we are actively booking out the rest of the year with him!”


“Emily was great! This was my first experience with Rover and I couldn’t have picked a better person. She was great with my puppy Lola and kept me updated during my whole work trip. She was trustworthy and really just made the whole experience so easy. My Lola was so happy when I got home and looked very well taken care of. Thank you Emily!”
“Kaleigh helped me out with dog walks when I had to cancel my booked housesitting trip last minute due to injury! My dog loves her. Great communication. Will book again.”

“Rosemary is an absolute delight and such a professional! Left our house as she found it (if not cleaner) did a few extra house things and most importantly kept my babies safe, fed and super happy! Loved all the pictures and updates.”

“Mallory was super responsive and attentive to my geriatric cats! Lots of photos reassured me that they were doing well and that she was engaged with them!!”

“Over the moon with Ellie! She took great care of our two boys whilst we were gone easing so much anxiety. Ellie is responsive, professional, cared so well for the doggies, and went above and beyond!”

“Victor was an exceptional guest and a wonderful caretaker for my two dogs. He followed all instructions carefully, maintained great communication while I was away, and most importantly, my dogs absolutely adored him. The house was spotless when I returned! Victor went above and beyond to ensure everything was in order, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets and home were in such capable hands. I would not hesitate to welcome him back again. Highly recommended!”

“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”

“This was the first time leaving Gracie for several days. Mel did such a great job keeping her anxiety level low. We felt keeping Gracie in her own home environment would be the best. Mel did such a wonderful job taking care of Gracie. We will definitely use Mel the next time! I would highly recommend her!”

“Joe was amazing with our dogs! Every day I had updates with photos and videos and overall messages about their day and how they were doing. He was so attentive with them. In the past I have always worried every day I was gone from them and could never enjoy myself on vacation and I did not feel that way when he was watching my babies. I couldn’t recommend him enough and will definitely make him a number one choice when we need a sitter again! Thanks Joe!”

“Margot was absolutely amazing. We got constant updates and photos which we so appreciated. When we got home the house was just as we left it and so clean. She left the guest room so clean which we didn’t except given we’ve had other pet sitters who have left the house very dirty. When we met her we fell in love and will definitely be rebooking if she’ll allow us!! 10000/10 🤍🤍🤍”

“Christine was so fantastic taking care of our babies! She was very responsive and cared so deeply about them, some of which are special needs or elderly and require medications, and she took great care to make sure each of their needs were met. She treated them like they were her own. She was respectful of our home and we would highly recommend her!”

“First experience with the app it was awesome ❤️ Sara was very caring and great with my two dogs?. Sara was very punctual and she was always keeping me updated with the care of my dog will I was in my trip. I definitely going to get in touch with her for the future caring of my dogs. ?❤️?”

“Alex did a great job with our 2 pups. He took detailed notes at our meet and greet and followed their feeding and walking schedules carefully. Great communication and pics so we knew they were receiving good care. We’ve already booked Alex for our next time away”

Makenzie is the best and did such a great job with my 9 year old high energy shepherd mutt! She was super responsive, sent lots of pictures, and took great care of our house. We hired her two weekends in a row and will definitely call her again for future dogsitting needs.

Mallory was the best choice for our pets! Having two dogs and two cats, it’s not always easy to find the right person to take care of them and we are new to Richmond. She spent the night wit them, making them feel comfortable and keeping us posted via texts and pictures. Our pets loved her, had no issues and she was respectful of our home. She also met us a couple times before the actual stay so that one of our dogs could get familiar with her. Couldn’t recommend her enough, you can tell she actually enjoys spending time with them and cares for their well-being!

Nina was absolutely wonderful at caring for my pups while I was away for work. They got to keep their general routine and her photos showed me they were up to their favorite things—walks, snoozing, getting pets. I loved the updates I got and would be lucky to book Nina again!

I adopted Gobi in May and this was our first time away from him. Emily was super great and from her updates it seems like Gobi had a great time! I was so worried that he was going to be naughty or difficult, but she made it seem really easy. I am so glad we found her and got peace of mind during our trip. I can’t thank you enough!

DJ was absolutely wonderful! In the face of some extenuating circumstances he took great care of our pup. We’ll definitely be keeping him in mind for any future sittings as he was prompt with replies and sent so many updates allowing us to enjoy our vacation with very little worry!

We could not have asked for a better house-sitting experience than with Ellie. Her communication was top-notch before, during, and after her stay which gave us peace of mind when leaving our senior kitty with health issues and our dog, who gets nervous whenever we're gone overnight. Lots of pictures and updates. She also did a wonderful job keeping our house in order, which is much appreciated when coming home after several days away. If we need pet sitting again, Ellie will definitely be at the top of the list. We highly recommend her!

I had my catsitting plans fall through the day before my trip(!) and contacted Angela here on Rover. Angela was able to come visit my apartment and meet the cats day-of. As soon as I met her I knew my two cats were in great hands. She sent me lots of photos and updates while I was gone, followed my care instructions perfectly, and left my apartment cleaner than she found it. I highly recommend Angela's housesitting services and would be glad to have her watch my cats in the future.
