“Absolutely fantastic. Our pup who doesn’t love new people was drawn to Mary right away! She made a great effort to get to know him and his needs prior to her stay at the house and even came by to meet him and play with him. We felt 100% comfortable and confident in leaving our dog and home in her care. We got home and everything was left as we found it! Very good communication and sent lots of fun pictures of our pup!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Carolyn. It’s so great to have someone take care of my fur baby and my house while I’m out of town. Can’t recommend her enough!”

“Biiftuu was an excellent dog sitter. She clearly took good care of my little Aussie poo. She sent good pictures and left the house in excellent shape. I would hire her again.”

“Jessica is a top notch Rover and chicken caretaker. She communicates daily with multiple pictures of your pet(s) and with comments on how it is going. She was very attentive to our dog's schedule so that they are loved and taken care of. She loves to go on long walks and also taking the dog out for 'sniff' walks. She stayed at our house and was very respectful of her surroundings. The house was clean and picked up. We had no worries and our dog, who can be anxious, seemed calm and happy upon our return!”

“We were very lucky to find Iuliia. She stayed with our very sweet, but very anxious dog over the holidays. It took our pup a little while to adjust, but she quickly warmed up and the two became fast friends. We will definitely work with Iuliia again in the future.”

“Laeana is fantastic. Took such great care of our animals and home, good communication and we were able to relax and enjoy our time away knowing our babies were being well taken care of. Will book again for sure!”

“It’s obvious that Erin LOVES animals. She took such great care of my two babies while I was out of town for work with regular updates to me so I didn’t miss them so much. She was also very respectful of my living space. Couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Our dogs were well cared for while we were away. Gabe followed all instructions, gave their medications without issue, and sent a few photo updates along the way. We appreciated knowing they were in good hands.”

“Lauren did a fabulous job taking care of our cat and dog while we were out of town. Our dog has an open healing wound as well and she took great care of this; the wound looked better when we returned. We will definitely be using Lauren for future needs and would highly recommend her services.”

“Emerson was an amazing sitter for our two girls. I got daily updates, came home to a clean home and didn’t worry one bit while we were away. We came home to two very happy doggos and will definitely book again. Thank you for taking such good care of our girls and making it so easy to enjoy our vacation. We appreciate you!”


“Rachel was amazing! She did a great job with our cats and dog. We unexpectedly needed a second overnight pet sitter, she was quick to respond to my request. Thankfully, it worked with her schedule. It was a relief to know someone familiar with our pets was able to care for them again.”

“Penny was very easy to work with and my dog was very relaxed around her. She had no problem doing anything I asked was very sensitive to my dog’s needs.”

“Olivia has proven herself to be a reliable, dedicated, and generally awesome caretaker for our finicky dogs and cat while we were away, allowing us to enjoy our trip without worrying about a thing! We hope she is available the next time we have to head out of town, as she will be our go-to for any check-ins or pet sitting. We would recommend her without hesitation!”

“Danielle was great with our puppy and older cat! She was very communicative and sent some pics, which we appreciated. House was as we left it and the pets were happy! Would definitely recommend her!”

“Sabrina was great with our dogs and kitty while we were away! She was communicative with updates and questions. She shared pictures of our animals as well. She was also good about taking them on walks so they could get some exercise. We will definitely be using Sabrina’s services again!”

“Leah was awesome - took wonderful care of our kitty and our home while we were away for five days over Christmas. Kept in touch by sending us updates and photos so we knew everything was fine. Kitty had just had dental surgery, was on a special diet and can be anxious and lonely without her humans around. She's also shy around people she doesn't know. But she really took to Leah and they got along great. I'm definitely going to have Leah back the next time we are out of town and would highly recommend her for cat sitting.”

“What a great dog sitter. Her and Stella had a great time. She took her for walks, dealt with some of her unbeknownst issues. Would highly recommend and will be using her for dog walking and house sitting. Again, thank you so much!”

“Lilah was a gem! We needed housesitting care a bit last minute due to a cancellation and she was willing to jump in with no problem. She was punctual, sent pictures of the dogs to let me know they were doing well, and communicated with me throughout the stay. I would definitely recommend her and book her again to watch my pups!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - University District
Daniel was patient and careful with our older, shy dog who soon warmed up to him. He took care of her during her least favorite night—July 4th—and handled her anxiety beautifully. He also was very gracious when our AC broke during a heat wave. He was professional and polite, and easy to communicate with. I would definitely recommend.
Aftyn was awesome with my dog, Billy. I could tell during the meet-and-greet that Aftyn was going to be really good with him, helping him feel calm and comfortable, and it sounds like the two had a very good weekend. She took Billy for lots of good walks and was very respectful of the space, leaving it very clean, which I was super appreciative of. I would definitely work with Aftyn again!

Katy was amazing and I would 100% recommend her for your pets! She really helped us in a bind and on a holiday weekend. We are so grateful and Whiskey looked like a happy pup! She was a great communicator and we really appreciated the pics and updates we received.

This was Sarah’s first time watching our dogs and she had to deal with SO many unforeseen behaviors and situations, it felt like we were being punked at points. We might have to laugh so we don’t cry as it was actually nonstop. She was communicative, calm and adaptable and we are SO appreciative of her and how she handled everything. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trusted human to watch their animals.
