“Maria took great care of my pups while I was gone! She followed all instructions and sent pics to let me know how they were doing. She's a clear communicator and I would absolutely re-book with her in the future!”
“Pre took great care of our dog, cat and home while we were away for a weekend. Even made sure our plants were watered. We could tell that our pets were happy to have her! Highly recommend”
“SJ was a dream dog and house sitter! Very communicative, thoughtful and most importantly, an instant friend to my dog! I would book with them again in a heartbeat. Thanks, SJ!”
“Naya handled all my dog could throw at someone new - from pooping in his crate to trucking her into extra play time outside, naya handled it all perfectly. When I got home, I literally had to reassure my fiance someone did take care of juicy- she left the house with no trace she was here, she only left behind a happy well loved pup! Will be booking naya again!”
“Can’t say enough positive things about Raimey! She’s taken care of my two kitties a few times now. Most recently one of my babies was a little sick and required medication two times a day. I was a bit nervous with this falling around the time I was travelling but Raimey made me feel very comfortable and handled it like a pro. She’s great with animals and gives regular updates throughout the day! I highly recommend her for your pet needs ☺️”
“Jeffrey goes above and beyond like letting my cat outside at 3AM and walking my Great Pyrenees at 6AM in the freezing cold to avoid other dogs! He is thoughtful and considerate. Thanks, Jeff!”
“Michael did a great job taking care of my two cats! He communicated regularly (including adorable photos) and made them feel at ease. I came home to happy, content kitties!”
“As always, Jackie was absolutely wonderful with our fur babies while we were out of town. She was very communicative, sending us updates and photos throughout our trip. We would highly recommend Jackie to look after your pets!”
“Jasmine took great care of my two dogs for the weekend. Lots of check ins and pictures. It was my first time using Rover and had a great experience. Already booked with her again!”
“Came home to happy, well taken care of babies and it’s all I could ask for. There was a mild snag while we were gone and we figured it out together. Wouldn’t ask anyone else to watch my 3 animals (and house).”
“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”
“Amy was wonderful with both of my dogs!! Duncan loved her from the start! McDuff took a little time but she won him over! Both dogs were well behaved and relaxed when we returned. I 100% will use Amy again! She was awesome @”
“Asia took great care of our pup, Juniper, as well as our house. She was really helpful and responsive to our messages. Our flights kept changing and Asia was flexible and made sure Juniper wouldn’t be left alone too long waiting, especially while there were thunderstorms (which scare Juniper). We came home to a happy healthy pup!”
“Victoria is the very best pet sitter we’ve ever had. Our animals love her more than they love us. She is great with communicating and goes above and beyond. We just love her.”
“Zana watched our two dogs and cat for a week and we are thrilled with our experience. Zana was extremely communicative and sent great pictures along with the updates. Our elder dog got sick and Zana was a champ handling some unexpected cleanup duty, leaving our house nice and clean. We sincerely hope we can rebook Zana the next time we leave town.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 2. I have looked after dogs, cats, and guinea pigs of various ages since 12. I love caring for pets and have a dog of my own! I also volunteer at animal shelters when I have the chance. I’m working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pet! During summer I will especially have loads of availability. I have a crate trained dog who is very friendly and can keep your pet company. I have a spacious apartment but am flexible to take care of your pet wherever!
“Lady did a great job taking care of my dogs and keeping me informed about their care. She's a natural with dogs and helped me feel comfortable leaving them in her capable hands and good care. Highly recommended.”
“She was perceptive with the dogs. They liked her from the minute she walked in the house. Lots of pictures and updates. The house was immaculate when we arrived home. I will definitely be using her again!!!”
Upper Northwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jeff has already been a great dog and house sitter for our neighbors and now we are glad to use his services. He checked in with us and made sure we knew the dogs were being taken care of and he was responsive to request to check on things around the house when it stormed while we were away. He did a nice job tidying up. Jeff also communicated well before our departure to clarify different things.
SJ is outstanding. He goes above and beyond. I had not been away in 6 months and SJ stayed overnight with Julietta and I knew that he would talk with her , engage her. I was updated with photos and reports and was certain that SJ was able to handle anything that required maturity and experience.
Catherine is a wonderful sitter who always takes great care of my pets, and she goes above and beyond. Whenever something comes up, whether it be one of my pet's quirks, or a last minute travel plan emergency, she takes it in her stride and comes through! Reliable and kind with animals, cannot recommend enough :)
Lois was wonderful! She took on our two beagles and walked them all over the neighborhood . She sent pictures religiously and some videos. House was probably cleaner than we left her when we got home. If we could give her more stars, we would. I think 10 would be appropriate.
We rank Zach as #1 for housesitting, dog and cat care. Absolutely prefect! Even our reactive dogs immediately felt comfortable with him. They were instantly comfortable and warm. When we came home, they had zero signs of stress, just relaxed happiness. Our cat usually won't come out for visitors at all, just hides in the basement. She was out purring around Zach almost immediately. Must be an aura of something. Great, twice daily communication. 100% reliable. Incredible value for money. We're booking him for our next trip away right now!
Maria took excellent care of our house and our pitbull, Tallulah. She was communicative, responsible, and caring. When we got home, we could tell that our dog had really taken to her. Went above and beyond to make sure all was well after a storm. We would absolutely hire her again!
She is great we have 3 dog and 2 of them can be a little problematic, one is super anxious and bites when she is scared.... But for Suzanne it was just another day. Suzanne is very good a getting back to you as soon as possible, you are getting a true professional sitter vs someone who does it as a hobby. Look no further Suzanne is one of the best sitters rover has to offer!
We had Mia watch our pets while we were out of the country which makes for more anxious separation. Mia was great about checking in and giving status reports and pictures. Very comforting. We would definitely recommend Mia as she checked all the expectation boxes and then some!
This was a second or third booking for Channing to housesit and take care of our big, crazy dog and two cats. I let her know ahead of time that the dog wasn't feeling well and gave her the option not to housesit - but without hesitation, she said she'd housesit and take care of the dog. This really impressed me as pets have issues all the time, and she was reliable and up for the job. And Channing did a great job - everyone was happy and calm on our return. As before, I'll definitely book Channing again.
