“Mercedes did an absolutely phenomenal job caring for my dog, Mugzy, during his first three-week stay with her. Mugzy can be incredibly nervous when separated from me, which made me highly anxious about leaving him with a sitter for the first time. Mercedes completely eased my worries with her warm, welcoming nature and exceptional organization.She gave Mugzy extra special attention, making him feel loved and completely at home. He had a wonderful time socializing with Mercedes and her children. Thanks to this experience, I feel entirely confident leaving him in her care for my upcoming travel.To top it all off, Mercedes baked delicious brownies for me, made special treats for Mugzy, and gave him a bath so he was fresh and clean at pickup. She even provided a detailed report card tracking his progress! I am incredibly grateful for Mercedes and highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-tier care for their furry family member.”

“Serena watched our 6 month old puppy at her house for a week, and he had a great time! She communicated with us every day, and we felt very at ease and able to enjoy our trip without worrying. She also has a very sweet dog who kept him company during his stay.”

“Iman was AMAZING, my Colin enjoyed himself thoroughly. She was so good with him. Iman kept us informed daily about what Colin was doing. She sent pictures and videos of all the activities. Colin generally does not play with other dogs but while with Iman, he seemed to truly enjoy himself. Iman was soo gracious and understanding with us as we were a bit late with our pickup time. I have to say this experience was GREAT. I have used boarding facilities and doggie hotels in the past and my Colin has never had this much fun, all the photos and videos showed that he was having an awesome time. I absolutely recommend Iman for your furry baby, she is well trained and knows how to take good care of furrbaby.”

“Shayna was excellent! We were very nervous leaving our overly anxious labradoodle for a few days and Shayna put all of those nerves to rest. She is clearly a professional. Thank you so much for everything Shayna!”


“Dwight sent text messages and pictures of Bella, which I looked forward to, the communication helped to assure me that Bella was doing well. I could tell that Bella enjoyed her stay!!”
“Kyla tood great care of Winston. From the pictures, he had access to a good size yard that help release his puppy energy and need to play/explore. I received regular updates with photos. She was also very good with questions. She is also very experienced with dogs, especially high-energy puppies. I will definitely use her again.”

“A true life saver! We attempted to keep our dog at a pet friendly hotel while we went to a concert, but Noodle decided she was going to let the hotel guests know how much she missed us by barking. We thought for sure we'd have to listen to the concert from the parking lot or just not go all together. Kathy responded very quickly, super nice and accommodating . Thank you again!”

“Buddy had a wonderful time with them. They were extremely caring, responsive, and he had a great time with their dogs. They also kept me updated with pictures which I loved.”


“Jim was great with Philip! He sent photos and kept me updated throughout the stay. Jim’s home is very clean and organized. He played with Philip in his backyard and even invited his dad’s dog over to keep my boy company. The two got along well! Will certainly book again! Book with Jim!”

“I'm always nervous when we leave Luna with someone new, but Lorraine made it really easy with a meet and greet which made drop off simple. We received lots of pictures to reassure us. Lorraine was super easy to work with for drop off and pickup and was accomodating for Luna's minor issue with stairs. Luna came home very relaxed and tired, I'm guessing from the fun she had at Lorraine's!”


“We would highly recommend Candace and Steve. Dexter is very attached to us and we were a bit worried about how things would go. From the meet and greet to the full 9 day stay, things went more smoothly than we could have imagined. Dexter was well cared for and content. Candace sent video clips often and we were so surprised to see how well he adjusted. He even made a new friend- Pumpkin! We can't thank Candace and Steve enough for taking care of our guy and allowing us to have a very relaxing and much needed family vacation.”

“Best experience ever. I was extremely nervous about leaving my dog at first, but Latasha made me feel comfortable. She was able to accommodate my last minute booking and sent photo updates throughout.”

“Megan and her home were exactly what my Tully needed while I was away. She was perfectly taken care of and I received frequent updates and pictures/videos. Highly recommend!”

“Daisy loved staying with Donelle. Donelle sent pictures practically everyday. I would highly recommend Donelle to watch your dog while you are on vacation. We have already re-booked for our next vacation.”

“Connie was incredible! She was so sweet with Rocky, and great with communicating and sending updates/photos. I’ll definitely be using Connie the next time I’m out of town!”

“Janet is phenomenal! The MOST caring and kind dog mom and sitter! She is very patient with my 7 month puppy while he is developing his manners. She provides a lovely home and environment for my pup, who runs to the door whenever he is going to stay with Janet. She is simply the best!”

“This was the first time we used Rover and we couldn't be happier. Matt was great with our 4 year old German Shepherd. He gave her plenty of attention and played ball with her. He sent me pictures and videos everyday. She stayed there for 7 nights and when we picked her up, she was excited to see us but was not trying to leave. She felt at home there and very well cared for. I am more than pleased.”

“Our Daisy had a great time at her overnight with Bridget. Bridget was great to work with, excellent communication and sent lots of pics/videos. Definitely recommend.”

“My pup Cannoli was immediately comfortable with Angel and didn't look back when I left (the little traitor...). Angel updated me throughout and made sure he had all the attention he needs (which is a lot) and plenty of walks. I would absolutely leave Cannoli in his care again.”

“Katherine was AMAZING with our cats. Normally very shy and fearful, our most scaredy cat even warmed up to her so quickly! It’s so easy to tell when we get home from a trip and our cats (and home) have been well-taken care of. HIGHLY recommend Katherine!!”

“Kathryn is a very reliable person, she toke care of my kittens extremely well, cleaning, brushing and feeding them properly and with extreme punctuality as committed. I would look for her next time for sure.”


“Kelara took amazing care of my 6 cats and was extremely accommodating of their unique needs (different food, separation from each other). Would definitely hire her again next time we're out of town!”

“She is the perfect cat sitter, caring and passionate for her jog is always noticeable for all she does with my kiddos and my peace leaving them with her is invaluable. Highly recommended, a professional loving and taking care of cats.”

“Gionna is absolutely fantastic! My rescue cat, who rarely comes out for anyone except me, followed Gionna around the house while she visited. I have to believe that means she’s a wonderful person!”


“Thank you for caring for Baby. It gave me such a peace of mind while I was away. Thank you so much for the toy for baby, that was such a kind gesture! Would hire again”

“Amanda was amazing and so considerate of making the schedule work when she came to take care of our car while we were away! She was so helpful with things she noticed in the house that needed to be taken care of that other people would have paid no attention to and it made our coming home after a long trip so much easier. A million stars and we will be calling her again for sure!”


“Tara was great with my sassy cat Jolene. I appreciate all the updates and additional help bringing packages in and checking on our turtle! Would absolutely book again!!! Thank you Tara.”

“Coretta was fantastic! Our cats warmed up to her immediately. She sent informative updates and took great care of them. I will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Marissa was great! She arrived on time to meet my little pups before I went out of town, and also arrived on time the day I scheduled for her to come let them out. She played with them, took them for a walk, fed them, and changed out a potty pad.”

“Lisa is an excellent caretaker and sitter, very friendly, personable and professional. Our cats were healthy, happy and not upset or shy like they’ve been in the past when we would go away on vacation — she treated them like her own family. Will definitely count on Lisa again in the future.”


“Suzanne took such great care of our pets! She was really communicative and let us know she was concerned about one of our cats not eating (due to missing us.) It was the first time we left our pets in the hands of someone through Rover and Suzanne exceeded our expectations! We are so thankful to her.”


“As a repeat customer, I think Maribel is the absolute best!! My kitty wasn’t feeling well and she went above and beyond to make sure he was doing okay. He’s now feeling much better and already misses playing with her!”


“Danielle was amazing and communicative. She took great care of our 3 cats while we were away. Her daily visits made sure they were fed, had water, and clean litter boxes! She’s the best!”


“This was our first time using Rover. My husband and I went on a week-long trip, and we couldn't find anyone to watch our 2 kitties overnight. I was nervous because I usually like to have family watch them, as I know them. After meeting Khalia, I could tell she cared for animals, and it made me feel better. She did a great job with our little chaos gremlins, and they felt safe with her! She left everything nice and clean, respected our home, and gave us updates with pictures. The pics meant a lot! I'm a worried cat momma, so this helped with us being so far away. We'll continue to reach out to her when we need a cat sitter!”


“Me’lia was a godsend, when my original sitter had to cancel last minute. She was communicative and thoughtful, and was super accommodating. And both my cat and my dog loved her. Would recommend and would rebook her again!”

“I give Iman 5 stars times 20. This is my first time using Rover and I selected Iman for home drop in visits for the week I was on work related travel. To say I was nervous is an understatement. However, from the time I met Iman I knew she was the right choice. I perceived her to be a gentle, compassionate and honest person. This was important to me considering the temperament of my fur babies. One is a rescue due to abuse and none have ever been border and I wanted them to stay in the comfort of their own home. Yes I got that vibe from just meeting her. Very positive ora and energy. Iman exceeded my expectation. My 4 fur babies took to her right away and she cared for them as I would. You can tell this is not just work for Iman it’s what she loves. She absolutely has a love for and way with animals.t antisocial cats were even drawn to her. She made sure the house was locked and secured each time and that the alarm was set. I will definitely continue to utilize her services for my fur babies. I can’t express my gratitude enough for having such an amazing and outstanding sitter. Also, they loved her dog food. ❤️”

“Mercedes is literally the best. She sent me pictures of my Ryder throughout the day and he looked so happy. I knew that he was in good hands. I will definitely return!!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Amy. She is so flexible, accommodating, and genuinely cares for my little fur baby as if it were her own. Her dependability gives me such peace of mind every time!”

“Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!”

“My dog Coco had a wonderful time with Emily and Amy and their dog, Pepperoni 🌶. I would certainly recommend Emily to anyone needing doggy day care. And I will certainly bring Coco again.”

“I am grateful to have found Iman. I feel good knowing my Gigi is in good hands. I was worried about finding quality care that could accommodate my late work schedule. I’ve never left my furbaby with anyone outside of my immediate family, it was scary. I had looked at Rover previously but never used their services, now I am so glad I did. Rover helped me find the best care for Gigi and Iman has been great accommodating my late work schedule. Iman set my heart and mind at ease and I am so thankful for the love & care she provides my fur-baby Gigi and I are both grateful for Iman ❤️”

“Michelle was absolutely fantastic - one of the best Rover's we've ever worked with.

“Katherine was an excellent companion to my two pups! They really took to her and she handled them perfectly. She was always on time and let me know when she was on the way, which was appreciated! I will book her again in the near future.”


“With the busy schedules my husband and I have, we use Melissa weekly for recurring walks. She is great about picking up extra walks when we need, so our fur baby has some consistency with all traveling I do for work. Bruno loves her and I love the peace of mind she gives us! Thanks Melissa for all you do!”

“Amanda is awesome with our dog Leyla! This was our first time using Rover and it could not have been a better match. She is nearby, flexible and takes the extra time and effort to ensure our puppy gets in some good, quality, fun exorcise for the day. She is very experienced with animals of all kinds and makes me feel confident that my pup is in good hands. Highly recommended!”
“I recently adopted a rescue who is having a hard time adjusting to new people. Kathryn did a great job with him! Despite him growling at her she was patient with him and helped him calm down so she could walk him. She was reliable and understanding. I then asked her if she could come again last minute and without hesitation she agreed! I would definitely work with Kathryn again!”
