“Desiree is the best rover!! She’s very communicative and proactive. She took the best care of my cat- he is a big fan of hers now. Desiree was very good with following instructions and also managing any last minute changes that came up. I felt very at ease and comfortable knowing that my baby is in good hands. Would highly recommend!”

“Alexis was a great house-sitter and super communicative. Our dog is 80 pounds and she had no issues with him at all. She sent us lots of photos and they got along great. We will absolutely be booking with her again any time we go out of town, we could not recommend her highly enough!”

“2nd time that Caroline has dogsitted in our apartment and it was again great! she is vey communicative and send us pics/ vids 2-3 times a day definitely recommend”

“Wei house sat for Mochi, our 14 month old Miniature American Shepard, from 04/24/2024 - 04/28/2024 and she did a phenomenal job! This was our first trip away since adopting Mochi, so we were a little nervous about leaving her alone. From the beginning, Wei was very gentle and friendly with Mochi. Wei also fed Mochi as per our detailed instructions, took her for regular walks to Central Park, and shared adorable photos with us regularly. Wei put our minds at ease and allowed us to really enjoy our vacation. We would definitely book Wei again to house sit for Mochi!”

“Thank you so much Kerra! She took such good care of my puppy Honey. Sent pics and videos throughout the day and took great care of my puppy! Highly recommend and looking to booking again!”

“Gwendolyn did great work house sitting Coco and communicated very well throughout. She left our house in pristine conditions. Thank you Gwendolyn and I look forward to working with you again.”


“Totally recommend Marine for pet care. She was SO helpful with my puppy, Winston. He’s recovering from pneumonia and she did a great job making sure he took his antibiotics. She took great care of my home and kept me updated while I was on a work trip.”

“Cassandra was so loving and took very good care of my dog. We were gone for hours and Cassandra took my dog for walks, sent timely updates and pictures, cleaned up after my dog and I came home to a happy child. Thank you Cassandra, I’m 100% booking her again!”

“Adeib was fabulous! He kept me up to date with everything going on with my dog Cookie and sent me lots of pictures. Adeib is a natural when it comes to taking care of dogs.”


“Michelle was fantastic with our sweet/complicated rescue. She gave her a puzzle toy to keep her occupied and Patti even hung out in the same room instead of hiding which is a first for a new person!”

“Jason was amazing with Stevie and truly went above and beyond. She’s a fearful rescue dog with some specific needs and he took the time to meet her multiple times beforehand, learn her routines and listen to all of my concerns. He was incredibly patient and let her warm up at her own pace. While I was away, Jason sent tons of pictures and updates, and it was clear Stevie was getting lots of park time, playtime, cuddles, and naps. I came home to a very happy, tired dog and a clean apartment. Jason is kind, trustworthy, and clearly genuinely loves animals. He made me feel so comfortable leaving Stevie which is not easy for me. He really pays attention to the individual dog and their needs and was absolutely the best sitter we’ve had and I’d recommend him to anyone.”


“Ashley was absolutely fantastic. She watched our new puppy and older dog with ease and sent lots of great updates to keep everyone comfortable. She went above and beyond with keeping our pups entertained. Definitely recommend her services.”

“Hannah was extremely nice and attentive, sent a lot of photos and updates and my dog fell in love with her. She has a great heart and was a joy to deal with throughout the whole process. Super happy about having booked her to stay at our place and take care of our pup :)”

“Scooby had such a great time with Chelsea. He felt comfortable with her right away, and they played so much together. It was really reassuring to see how relaxed and happy he was with her. You can tell she genuinely cares and is great with dogs - will absolutely book with her again.”


“Iliana did a fantastic job. She followed all the instructions and most importantly fed our kitties on time. She left the apartment clean and spotless, just as we had left it before leaving on vacation. She did not hesitate to reach out with questions and sent us updates with pictures frequently. We look forward to having her watch them again :-) !!”

“Abdelkader was excellent! He was communicative and followed all the directives that I left for him. To be honest, I don’t plan on using anyone else for my cat sitting services if I can avoid it. He’s just that good! I look forward to booking his services again!”

★★★★★ Michelle was amazing! She went above and beyond, kept me updated with pictures, and took such great care of Louie. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I would highly recommend Michelle and would absolutely have her watch Louie again!

We can't recommend Stephanie highly enough. From the first meet-and-greet, she took the time to learn Finn's quirks, routines, and favorite games, and it showed. Finn was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for the entire stay. Stephanie sent regular photo and video updates, which gave us total peace of mind. Finn came home tired, content, and (as always) a little spoiled. She communicated clearly, was flexible with our schedule, and treated Finn like part of her own family. We'll absolutely be booking her again. Thank you, Stephanie!

Robin was incredibly reliable and communicative. I have a hard time leaving my senior cat especially for trips longer than a weekend but after meeting with Robin for a meet-and-greet, I felt relieved and confident that she’d do a great job — which turned out to be true! We got daily updates and photos, and she dealt with my cat’s temperamental attitude (esp when giving him his meds) like a champ. I’d 100% book Robin again! Thank you!!!

Bing did a phenomenal job taking care of Pacho! This was the first time he had a dog sitter/walker since his major surgery last year, so I was definitely a little nervous leaving him. Bing immediately put me at ease by sending me the cutest photos and keeping me updated throughout his walks. I could tell from the pictures how happy and comfortable he was with her, which meant so much to me. She even gave him new toys, and I’m pretty sure they’re best friends now! 😂 It was so obvious that she gave him lots of attention and genuinely cared for him. When I got home, Pacho was in such a great mood, and I could tell he had been very well taken care of. Bing also took great care of my place and left everything exactly the way I left it, which I really appreciated. She was communicative, thoughtful, responsible, and clearly loves dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be reaching out to Bing again in the very near future. Pacho is already looking forward to his next visit with his new best friend!

We couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Ruby! This wasn’t the first time Alejandra sat Ruby and it won’t be the last! Communication was excellent, with updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Reliable, caring, and a genuine dog whisperer. Highly recommend!

Kathryn was a LIFESAVER! No exaggeration. Took on a booking for me at 1am the night before I was scheduled to leave town after my cat, Pigpen, had been in the ER, when her previously scheduled sitter was too intimidated to care for her. I can’t say enough good things. I hated leaving under the circumstances and Kathryn made me feel totally at ease. I knew Pigpen was in the best hands.

Alexis is wonderful!!! We have a pretty anxious rescue dog who is very uncertain and barky at new people, Alexis was so amazing with our dog Mia and took such good care of her while we were away. I can tell our dog felt so safe with Alexis and had SO much fun playing tug and endless rounds of fetch. Alexis is an amazing communicator and I felt so comforted that Alexis was taking care of our dog while we were traveling. Thank you!!!

Anita watched our dog at our place for two weeks and she did an excellent job! It was the first time we hired someone through Rover. Fortunately, Anita made the whole experience easy and smooth. She took great care of Dusty and stayed in touch with us all the time. She sent lots of cool photos and videos of Dusty, so we almost felt like we were there. It was evident that Anita was very attentive to Dusty’s needs and that she simply loved playing and walking with him. We highly recommend Anita and something tells us that Dusty misses her already.

Shriya is the best of the best! I was fortunate to have her house sit and care for my kitty. Emily, amd she consistently excelled above and beyond my expectations! Her patience, kindness amd love of cats put my mind at ease during a 2 week stay. I highly recommend Shriya and look forward to working with hwr in thw future!
