“Rachel is awesome. I felt so comfortable leaving out dogs under her care. My dogs are lovely, but not always the easiest. My lab has a lack of survival instincts and is high energy. My senior corgi is losing her hearing and loves her routines. Rachel made sure to give the dogs affection, exercise, and kept me updated while we were out of town. We will be contacting Rachel for our next trip.”

“This was my first experience using Rover to find a sitter and so glad to find such a great fit. Tessa was wonderful and so helpful with my shy and spicy mini Aussie. She gave her the time she needed to warm up and was eventually sending me pictures of them cuddling!! Such a relief while being 1,000 miles away- and knowing your dog is being well loved. I left the state super concerned the trip may be cut short and was quickly put to ease by Tessa’s level of care and thoughtful updates. Thanks so much Tessa!”

“Aspen is very kind with a gentle demeanor. She came over to meet us and our 2 dog babies a week or so before we needed a sitter. She was calm and warm. She dog sat in our home for a little over a week and we got photos and messages during the trip updating us on how the dogs were doing. She was quick to reply when we would check in as well. She left our dogs happy and our home clean. Aspen is fairly new to Rover but I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Aspen for a great job.”

Rachel stayed with our two cats for two weeks and did a fantastic job. Both cats are pretty shy, though one is particularly skittish with strangers. Rachel continuously tried to interact with him and draw him out even though he was hesitant to engage with her. The other cat warmed up to Rachel after several days and then cuddled on her lap and slept with her at night. Rachel is reliable, communicates well, and did a great job with the kitties - we will definitely use her services again and we highly recommend!

Rinnah house and two-dog sat for us for 16 days while we were on the other side of the world. We received texts about and photos of the pups every day. The dogs were walked every day and we returned to find two happy pets. The house was spotless. Rinnah went above and beyond when our Tikka (true to form in a bit of separation anxiety) chewed our wooden gate and fence. Rinnah was resourceful in using materials found in the yard to bolster up the gaps and keep Tikka safe. We would definitely hire Rinnah again

Jacob was amazing with our two dogs! We were abroad, and he gave us peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of. He also took great care of our house and was very responsive. Our bigger dog is extremely energetic, and Jacob made sure he got plenty of long walks. Both of our dogs loved him!

Meghan did an absolutely wonderful job watching our two dogs while we were gone. She provided text and photo updates everyday that made me feel very comfortable while we were gone for a week. Sometimes our dogs can be a little spicy on walks and she took it all in stride. I so appreciated her thoughtful and caring nature and will definitely be reaching back out in the future.

Kristina took excellent care of both our home and our fur baby while we were away. She stayed in touch every day with updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to a spotless house, and her communication throughout the entire trip was outstanding. We couldn’t be happier with the care she provided and can’t wait to have her back for our next trip. Highly recommend!

Saved me and my fur babies ON AN HOURS NOTICE!! I had a sitter tell me they were leaving in 2 hours - and I was a plane ride away from house and pets. Melt down!! I went on Rover, told Annabella the story and she was at the house in a flash. Took excellent care of my house and my animals. Can’t thank her enough!
