“A friend recommended I use Rover.com and specially Alan and Luis to board my young golden retriever. From start to finish this was an excellent experience for Shilo and myself. The Rover.com app is extremely user friendly and Alan and Luis provided a warm, homey atmosphere for my pup. I had never left her overnight and it was so comforting to get daily picture updates while I was away. Shilo was clearly having the time of her life! I have already booked another stay and will use Alan and Luis and Rover.com for all my boarding needs.”

Jackie was once again, an awesome caretaker - excellent communication, many photos and kept Tillie busy by taking her for walks, bringing her to parks to run around and playing in their home. Just seeing Tillie so excited to see Jackie at drop off and looking forward to playing with Sushi made us confident that Tillie was comfortable going to their home.”

“Jillian is an incredibly diligent, caring, responsive, and communicative pet visitor. I highly recommend Jillian. She is patient, gentle, and knowledgeable about cat behavior. Ralphie warmed up to her rather quickly. She was thorough during her visits, cleaning up any messes, washing the bowls, and tending to the litter box. Very impressive with her high level of care.”
“Rachel always goes above and beyond for my kitties. She leaves detailed summaries and takes lots of pictures. She truly cares about our pets and wants them to feel loved and cared for while we are away. She is very responsive and flexible! We hired her recently since our previous Rover deleted her account and hopped on the job seamlessly! We trusted her while we were away for extended periods of time for our wedding and honeymoon. It was amazing that we did not need to worry at all about our pets. Thank you, Rachel!”
“I had an amazing experience with Cristina! She is communicative, reliable, and friendly. I got updates and photos, which allows me enjoying vacation without worrying about my cats!”
“This was our second time using Rover for our Ragdoll boys, and the first time using our pet sitter, Patricia. Rover is a great way to find caring, reliable and safe sitters. Patricia was an absolutely wonderful sitter for our boys. She came every day promptly and sent us pics and 'messages' from them, even on Christmas day! We also needed a last minute day add-on, and she graciously accepted. We would definitely use Patricia again for our cat sitting needs. Thank you Patricia & Rover! 😻”
“Karinna did a fantastic job with my cat while I was away! She provided detailed updates and pictures, leaving me feeling my guy was left in solid, capable hands. 10/10 recommend Karinna and would definitely look for her services again in the future!”
“Laura has provided such loving care for our pets, particularly our senior cat. I am so thankful I found her and will continue to utilize her services going forward. I highly recommend her!”
“Brook Lyn did a great job watching my cats! She kept me updated, informed me on things around the house and my pets, made sure things were left clean if not cleaner. I will absolutely rebook and recommend her for future sittings!”
“Joanna took care of our cat over the last week and was awesome! She sent us lots of pictures and Dorito warmed up to her super quickly! She was also very respectful of our house. Would 100% re-book with her!”
“Amelia was a fabulous sitter for my kitty! We met up before my trip, and she asked all of the important questions that I didn't think to bring up, which made me confident that she was well-experienced and prepared! She is so sweet and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Tiana did a fantastic job taking care my Nola while I was traveling for work. She was consistent with her communications, sent photos that she took during her drop in visits and formed a solid bond with my cat, through play and cuddle time. I would definitely rebook her again.”
“Callan is excellent. He’s pet sit at my home before for our two dogs and drop ins. He is incredibly reliable and continues to be great with our dogs. Thank you Callan!”
“Jill did a fantastic job taking care of my cats. She was very professional, attentive to any requests as well as the special needs of my youngest and treated my kiddos with love and care every day, including the days when the elevator gave out in my apartment complex. I was initially concerned about a sitter because my eldest is very skittish around strangers due to previous bad experiences with others, but I was surprised to see that she warmed up to Jill right away. 10/10. If ever I need to have a sitter for my kiddos again, I'll be calling Jill.”
“This was the first time I booked Le'Andra to do daily check-ins on my cat Gabby while I was out of town. She was great! Le'Andra always stayed in communication with me by text. And she did her best to still take care of my cat while also dealing with the storm and very cold temperatures we recently had. Le'Andra is nice and very friendly. I would definitely request her again the next time I need a cat sitter, and would also recommend her to anyone considering booking her on Rover.”
“Jan and Jamie were great during their drop-ins with our cat and we're respectful to my home during the visit. Would highly recommend their services and reach out again in the future.”

“Christle has been a Godsend. She is amazing, kind & a wonderful dog sitter. My Harmony LOVED going there! She was treated with kindness & when she got home she was tired from playing. I absolutely recommend her as your furry companion will be in great hands!”
“Lisa was the best dog sitter. She was friendly, kind, and communicative. She helped us out so last minute. She took great care of our little Hunter. This was my first time using rover and I would definitely recommend Lisa to anyone. She responded to my concerned mom texts and sent pics of our pup hanging out outside. Hunter was smiling, happy, and seemed worn out after his stay with Lisa. We cannot thank her enough for all her help. Thank you so much Lisa!!!!! ?”
“Triba is amazing! She loved peanut and made peanut feel safe and comfortable. This eased our anxiety too and we will definitely be working with Triba again soon!”
“Inam and Jennifer are wonderful! Very communicative and Lola loved them from the beginning. Lola is so tired when she gets home and she hardly wants to leave when I pick her up. If you have a social dog that likes playing with other dogs they are the right fit!”
“My dogs are always happy to spend the day with Ricky. They get excited in the car when they realize where we are and run right through the door as soon as it opens. I’m so happy they are safe and well cared for while I’m away.”
“Ashley has been an amazing dog sitter for my dog, Mia Cristina. She is consistently punctual, dependable, and clearly truly cares about Mia’s comfort and well-being. From the start, it felt like Mia was in great hands. Communication was excellent. Ashley sent updates all day, including photos and thoughtful comments, so I always knew exactly how Mia was doing—what she was up to, how she was feeling, and how the day was going. She’s professional and attentive. She followed my instructions carefully, treated Mia with care, and made the whole experience stress-free for me while I was away. A+ recommendation. I couldn’t be happier with the service and will absolutely book Ashley again. If you want someone punctual, warm, and great at keeping you updated (with photos and comments all day), Ash is the one.”
About: Ive been a dog owner all my life and have pet sat for many family and friends. Young or old, I love dogs and am ready to take care of your furry companion like they were one of my own. I am currently pet sitting full time, so I can watch your pet throughout the week or weekends as needed. Just walks are available throughout the day too. I have a fenced in back yard, as well as a medium sized crate for crating if needed. I currently don't have any pets of my own, but plenty of toys an activities for a fun doggy day!

“She is amazing! I am a nurse, so I am working long hours. I received updates, pictures, and flexible sitter hours. She accepted me in such short notice. Out of town workers, just put your anxiety at ease. Your baby is in good hands with Izadora.”
“Klaudia and her crew welcomed our anxious pup for daycare and he came home happy and actually seems to a bit less reactive to other dogs after a day with Winston and Bruno! Klaudia checked in several times and sent photos, which we loved, showing Loofy getting lost of attention. We're looking forward to doing an overnight in the near future.”
“Nazim took care of our dogs with a short notice which was very convenient for us. He was courteous and helpful. The dogs bonded with him immediately. They had plenty space to run. We were happy with his service.”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals, and I've always had the responsibility of taking care of them. I've cared for family dogs and I help my daughter with the care of dogs and cats. I like to make dogs feel at home. I don't work, I'm always at home, and if I have to go out I always take the dog with me; it gives me time to take him out to do his business, play with him, and he always feels accompanied. I live in an apartment with a garden where they can relieve themselves and a gated parking area, but I still prefer taking them to the park to walk and play.

“Jillian was so kind! I needed someone last minute to walk my dog and she was awesome. We have never had someone stop into the house we hadn’t met before and could not have picked a better person. Nora was well taken care of and I was worry free. Thank you!”
“Let me begin by saying that my dogs are my children and I treat them as such. I am very critical of who I allow to care for them. That being said, I HIGHLY recommend Lauren for any dog service you need. Lauren treats my dogs as if they were her own. She is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond. My dogs adore her and that means everything to me. It is apparent from the moment you see her interact with your dog that it is not just a business to her, it is her love. In addition, her knowledge regarding all aspects of canine care is extensive and helpful. The peace of mind in knowing that my dogs are well cared for is priceless.”
“Margaret is an exceptional service dog. She communicated effectively with me and diligently followed my instructions for my English bulldog, who is my daughter. Her performance was truly remarkable, and I will definitely use her again.”
