“Really nice meeting Jessica for the 1st time! Very focused on meeting and bonding with the dogs. Jessica is very confident and obviously experienced with handling and making relationships with animals. Our hyper young lab was no problem for her, she handled him very well. Looking forward to a long relationship with her and our dogs!”
“Louis went above and beyond to communicate with us during our trip away from home and he even slowly won over our shy cat to the point they were cuddling together! I was a first time rover user and Louis made everything so easy. Can’t recommend him enough!”
“Charlie is a true professional! Very punctual and thorough in all his questions and planning for the visit. He sent lots of videos and pictures of bella and gave us frequent status updates. Our pug is elderly and requires lots of timely medications and assistance to to to the bathroom and Charlie handled her with ease. We never get to leave the house for day trips because our pup requires constant care and Charlie made it possible for us to unwind for a day. Your pets will be in great hands with Charlie.”
“Our little dogs are small but can be a handful. They loved Jada right away! She was responsive, respectful of our space, and sent adorable update pics daily to put any fears at ease. Both our pups can be a little reactive when it comes to dogs and people in our neighborhood—but Jada was well equipped with her experience and demeanor to keep everything calm and under control. We will absolutely be working with her in the future!”
“Erica took amazing care of our three large dogs and while gone, she sent pics and updates. Came home to a clean house, happy dogs, and bedding in the washer. I'd highly recommend and hope to book her for future dates.”
“We were desperate to find someone we trusted after an incident with our last sitter. Eric put us at ease immediately, he really is an expert dog whisperer. My babies have some anxiety and Eric was able to keep them calm, walked them often and sent me updates every day.”
“Joshua is fantastic! His communication is very quick. We have 3 dogs (Gordon setter, westie, and a doxie), and he does well with all three temperaments and personalities. For this sitting job, we reached out to him last minute, and he was able to juggle some of his commitments to help us out. Thank you, Joshua! Any dog would be lucky to have you as a sitter!!”
“This is our 3rd or 4th time using Adam as a Dogsitter for our pets. He has great communication and spends lots of time with our dogs. We’ll definitely be using him again!”
“Addie has stayed with my two pups a few times now. They both seem well-cared for when I return. Addie's also responsive and easy to communicate with :)”
“Jessie took wonderful care of our two pups and cat while we were away. He communicated daily and spent a lot of time with our fur kids, who always have separation anxiety while we are gone. We would recommend using Jesse for overnight stays.”
“Sofia was absolutely wonderful with our Charlie & kept our home just as we'd left it. She was very communicative, sending us updates & pics, really setting our minds at ease. Highly recommend!”
“Stone is fantastic! Frequent updates, anything that we may have missed on our instructions was asked about via text and mainly Stone just seems to be great with Buddy who is kind of a sensitive guy. We were held up an extra night after missing a connecting flight because of the airline’s delay, Stone had no other commitment and extended our booking and pretty much saved the day! A huge relief”
“Cameron was great! My fussy dogs were at ease with her right away. She responded quickly to messages and helped ease my pet parent anxiety. We will be working with her again for sure!”
“Amy was a caring and fun cat sitter for Cal and Cookie. She played with them and sent pictures and messages while we were away. She also left the home clean and ready for our return. Thanks Amy!”
About: I have experience dog walking and sitting for 5 years. I make sure they’re exercised while having fun;) From bathing them, administering medications, to any other specific care they need, I am here for you and your pet! I am self employed, so I completely make my own schedule. I am mostly available whenever you need. Some weekends may be unavailable, but the more notice given, the likelier I’ll be available. I would be caring for them in your home. I make sure to spend adequate time with them, whether it be playing, walking, or just giving them attention! I’m available to give them plenty of potty breaks as well.
“We highly recommend Dana, she was great! She took care of our 2 dogs in our home for 3 nights and was very attentive to them. One of our dogs is very nervous about meeting new people and very protective of her home, Dana took on the job confidently and made our dog feel comfortable and found what she loves the most, playing ball! We received lots of updates while we were away and came home to tired and happy pups! We can’t wait to hire her again!”
About: I have helped dogs with birthing and caring for puppies. Owned dogs for over 20 years from little to big breeds and some with special needs Currently retired so pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routines. The well being and care of your pet would be my top priority Pet sitting in your home I believe helps to lessen the stress of separation for your dog with being in a familiar environment instead of a kennel
“Madison was great. She responded any time I checked in and sent a celebratory picture when my beloved labrador finally ate the second day we were away.”
“Our first overnight sitting and Rachael was fantastic!! She kept us updated with pictures and our little guy was happy relaxed and healthy when we returned home!”
“My first time using Rover and I was so anxious but Tina made me and the animals feel 100% comfortable, even our cat who usually hides from visitors snuggled up to her right away!! I loved receiving daily updates and pictures and the communication was so great. Came home to a clean house and very happy animals! I can't say enough how happy we are with Tina.”

“Margrit has had and loved dogs for as long as I've known her. Our beloved (and dearly departed) elder dogs, Echo and Momo, used to enjoy travel and play-dates together, and Margrit came to my home and dogsat when I had to leave town without Echo. When we worked together, Margrit always put her dog's needs before whatever after work events might be planned. I would recomment Margrit as a loving caretaker.”

Thurston pet parents share their Rover experiences
Amazing as usual! And she even had to deal with a skunking our 5 year old lab decided was a good idea to be involved with. She is the best and our dogs love her!!!
Best pet sitter ever. Our fur family just loves her and she takes such great care of them - and the house as well. I feel at ease knowing she’s with our animals while we’re away, which makes our time away all the more relaxing and fun. So glad we found Victoria!
Cam is so wonderful and our dogs were so cared for! We were nervous pet parents leaving our dogs for the fourth of july weekend but she was so comfortable and competent that our minds were at ease. She was so respectful of our home and kept us updated on our dogs’ routine. 10/10!
Amanda was wonderful with out dog Finn. Amanda made sure he got his walks and treats and sent lots of photos and updates. It was our first time using Rover and so I was a bit uneasy at first but after meeting with Amanda about our upcoming vacation I felt like it was a great decision. Thanks to Amanda for a great experience for us and our pup Finn.
Chloe was amazing with our anxious German Shepard mix. She followed all pet instructions very well. She even cleaned our house before she left and it was cleaner than how we left it. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. And will be using her again. Thanks so much!
