Delaney took great care of my girl! She sent lots of pictures so I could see how my girl was doing, and she was very happy. Then when I got home, my house was clean. I will definitely hire Delaney again.

Alex was amazing with taking care of Duke (dog) and Lagertha (bearded dragon). Duke has been super skiddish with new people and she was super patient with him as we did lots of drop in visits leading up to this trip to attempt to make him more comfortable with her. During our trip Alex sent me photos and communicated concern when she noticed Dukes nose was a little dried out from him licking it. We got home and Dukes nose was all better and he was excited to see us. Have already rebooked with Alex for our next trip.

Nora is a fantastic pet sitter. She's conscientious, detailed, and compassionate. My cat got some dental work done just before our trip. Nora was incredibly diligent with his extra care needs. I highly recommend booking Nora for cat/house sitting.

Drake was great to have as a house sitter for our two pups. At the initial meeting the dogs went right up to him. He spent some time getting to know them. While we were gone Drake would text anytime he had a question. Hire him for any dog care you may have

Julia was fantastic!!! We had great communication from the start, which made me feel oh so comfortable leaving our beloved new puppy in Julia’s very capable and loving hands!! Our puppy adores Julia and we will definitely be having her back to pet sit again. Julia was so lovely and kind every step of the way, and she even found and carefully removed 2 ticks from our little pup. She truly cares!! Thank you, Julia!! Can’t wait to have you back soon :).

Hailey did an awesome job dog sitting for us while we were on vacation. She also took time to do drop-ins beforehand so our anxious, people reactive dog could get comfortable with her ahead of time. She was extremely communicative and thorough throughout, and we’d definitely hire her again and recommend her to others.

This was our very first time using Rover, and we truly struck gold with Nataliia! She stayed at our home for a week with our two high-energy dogs, and from the start, we felt completely comfortable leaving both our boys and our home in her care. Nataliia came by twice before our trip—once for an initial meet-and-greet and again to go over all the details. Her great disposition won our dogs over instantly, and her professionalism gave us peace of mind. While we were away, she kept in regular communication, sending us photos and even videos of our boys happily playing games with her. Those updates were such a highlight for us! When we returned, our home was exactly as we left it, and our dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for (we think they were wondering when she’d come back!). Having them at home and cared for made all the difference—it was wonderful to walk in the door and see them right away instead of picking them up elsewhere. Our first Rover experience with Nataliia was fantastic, and we will absolutely request her again. She gave us peace of mind and gave our dogs the love and attention they needed. Highly recommend!

Lauren took great care of our pets, which included a daily pill our cat had to be tricked into taking. She was very responsive and put our minds at ease, and flexible when a travel delay meant that we were going to be late getting home. I will definitely book with Lauren again.
