“Lauren has been amazing with our three doodles. They clearly love their visits with her and it is so nice to know someone has eyes on them during the work day. We definitely recommend working with Lauren!!”

“We are so grateful to Mary for taking good care of our cats! We were gone for 2 weeks and Mary checked in on our kitties every day. She was very attentive to them, provided updates, and provided great care.”

“Chris did a wonderful job with Sadie - you can tell that he truly enjoys what he does & has a special way with pets. He met with us prior to his first visit to chat through expectations and to make sure we all felt comfortable. He took lots of great pictures and left a really thorough update following his visit. We will absolutely rebook with him!!”

“Absolutely fantastic sitter. I’ve never had anyone bond with my cat so fast. She took care of every single instruction I asked perfectly and swiftly.”


“I had a fantastic experience with Jackie. She was punctual and prompt, always arriving on time for our meet and greet. Her efficiency was impressive, and she was incredibly nice, making both me and my dog feel comfortable. My dog took to her right away, which speaks volumes about her ability to connect with pets. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for reliable pet care!”

“Courtney is FANTASTIC! I've been working with Courtney for about a year now and my cat and I appreciate her so much. She is responsive, takes excellent care of my cat, and gives him all the attention that he wants when I'm away. Highly recommend!”

“Kacey took excellent care of my two cats when I was gone and went above and beyond what I would expect from a sitter. I would definitely hire again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring cat sitter.”

“Anna took great care of my pack on short notice. I was worried as I have never used a dog sitter but my pups loved meeting her which eased my mind. I will definitely rebook with Anna again.”

“Michael was fantastic with my cat. He took great care to make sure I knew her daily goings on and communication was amazing. I highly recommend Michael!”

“Kate was wonderful! She took great and loving care of our aging cat, Crowley, and made time to schedule extra visits when it was clear he was feeling lonely. She was very communicative and responsive, and also kept my plants alive better than I could! I highly recommend her services and would happily use her again.”

“Gina was great! I needed a last minute sitter for a family emergency and she was able to accommodate. Brynlee loved her and she sent the most adorable pictures! I would definitely use her again!”

“My dog Buster is 15 years old; although very sweet, he requires special attention and patience. I believe Angelina went above & beyond to make him happy. I will definitely book again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Puppers took to him instantly. It's good to know I can count on someone to take good care of my dog while I'm away, and that my dog isn't gonna turn into a depressed furball. Very much appreciated!”

“Natalie was great! She communicated quickly and did her job with enthusiasm! I really appreciated the pictures and updates, and while I worried at first, leaving my pets with a stranger for the first time, she put me right at ease. Thank you, Natalie!”

“Lindsay was so great taking care of my cat while I was gone! My cat is an extreme scaredy cat normally, but they got along great with lots of pets, playtime, and treats! Appreciate having such a great person checking in while I’m out.”

“Glenn provided consistent care and attention for my cat and undertook the challenge of caring for my parrot although he was without prior bird experience. Both bird and cat were happy and healthy upon my return and Glenn communicated daily reports on them while I was away. I couldn’t be more pleased.”

“Alexis cared for my cats while I was out of town. One is particularly shy and nervous, and she came out with Alexis which I think says something! She was communicative and easy to plan with!”

University Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
Megan helped us check on our 3 golden retrievers while we were away for a long weekend. She sent us photos every time she visited and we really liked how detailed she was on her daily reports. That really helped us feel less worried and relaxed during our trip. When we came back, our dogs were happy and healthy! We highly recommend her!!
