“Katie and Samuel were great to Jarvis and sent us several updates throughout his stay. They also have a gated backyard to help with energetic dogs. I would highly reccomend!”
“Excellent! I really appreciated all the updates and photos from Stefanie. Great communication and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Will definitely use again in future.”
“We had a wonderful experience! This family took excellent care of our mini goldendoodle while we were on vacation—so kind, attentive, and thoughtful. They sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us total peace of mind and showed he was happy and having fun. Highly recommend!”
“Lindsey did a fantastic job of taking care of Coco. During my trip, I had travel delays and Lindsey was more than accommodating to help with last minute changes. She gave me frequent updates on Coco and I felt very at ease knowing that my fur baby was in very good hands. Would highly recommend!”
“Edith was wonderful,she kept me updated everyday with pictures and text messages. We were gone for ten days and I could enjoy my trip knowing she was taking care of and giving the best care to my two dogs. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your pet is well taken care of. We look forward to working with Edith again and we’ll recommend her to our friends.”
“Gina is great! We did a meet and greet first so her and my dogs could get acquainted, and to make sure it would be safe for all. She sent me pics of my boys while I was away and I really appreciated that! She treated my boys like her own fur babies! I highly recommend Gina! 5 stars for sure!”
“Elmer absolutely loved staying with Manjusha and Midhun. They sent so many wonderful updates and photos, and kept him well entertained. He was only slightly disappointed to be leaving them to come back home with us 😋. I'd definitely book with them again! Easy to communicate with and flexible with scheduling.”
“We left our dog Toffee with Jenny and her family for 5 days while we attended a work conference, and we could not have asked for a better experience! This was our first time using Rover and leaving Toffee with someone we didn’t know, so we were definitely nervous at first. Jenny immediately made us feel comfortable with constant updates, pictures, and videos throughout the entire stay. Toffee had the absolute best time running around in her huge backyard, playing with her kids and her two dogs, and getting so much love and attention. It truly felt like he was treated as part of their family. You can tell Jenny genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. We were able to fully enjoy our trip knowing Toffee was happy, safe, and so well cared for. We are beyond grateful and will absolutely be booking with Jenny and her lovely family again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Sure! Here's a thoughtful review you can leave for Ryan and Martha: --- Ryan and Martha were absolutely wonderful with Yogi! From the start, their communication was excellent — clear, prompt, and always thoughtful. They made dropoff and pickup incredibly easy and were very flexible with the timing, which we really appreciated. Throughout Yogi’s stay, they sent us regular updates and the sweetest photos that clearly showed how happy and comfortable he was. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. You can tell they genuinely care about animals and treat them like part of the family. We would absolutely trust them with Yogi again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, responsible, and communicative pet sitters.”
“Cleda was a wonderful sitter for Gauge and August! She sent pictures and kept us updated on how the dogs were doing and how much fun they were having! Although I missed them, I knew they were in good hands and was able to enjoy my vacation without worry. The personalized pawgress report was so sweet and clever, it was nice reading how well the dogs behaved for her. I would highly recommend Cleda to anyone and everyone!!!”
“Nicole was amazing. She did a wonderful job caring for my dog. He loved it and seemed sad to leave. I appreciate her flexibility and all her pictures and communication. I highly recommend her!!!”
“Michelle (and family) took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town for 2 days, even keeping her calm during a storm. Great communication, too!”
“I was nervous leaving our anxious dog with someone else, but Robert was patient with his interactions with Kipling and allowed Kipling to settle in at his own pace. Kipling had fun running around the fenced in yard with another dog and Robert kept us up to date with progress reports. Looking forward to the next visit where we can feel confident Kipling is being looked after.”
About: I have four dog nieces and nephews that I love very much and occasionally watch. I check in on my neighbors dog when needed. I successfully dog sat a Great Dane for a week who I fell in love with. I have a large fenced in yard that is the best for zoomies. I work from home M-F with a flexible schedule to take the dogs out to play or for a walk. The summer months I may be less available during the weekends but during the winter I will have more availability. I have a fenced in yard that is large enough for dogs to run. There are no other animals or children at this house making it a relaxing and peaceful place if the dog needs a more chill environment. I do have two doodle nephews that can come to play if the dog needs to socialize.
“Gen is great! We used her for an overnight visit for our dog, and he had a great time! She has a great set up for pup sitting, and she is so responsive! She sent us pictures with updates of our pup, which we really appreciated! She’s also very flexible and does her best to work with your schedule! Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Mary and her family were absolutely wonderful sitters for Grizzy! They took great care of him during a cold snap, making sure he was warm and comfortable. Mary sent wonderful updates and absolutely adorable pictures, and I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Ann was amazing! We have a pup that has some tricky behavior issues and she handled them like a professional. She was easy to work with and super accommodating. Highly recommend!”
“Evelin was wonderful with Fletcher! Fletcher had the best time with her and her partner, and loves the dog park in their apartment complex! Evelin sent me lots of pictures throughout his stay and frequent updates. I would definitely have Fletcher stay with her in the future!”
“Lindsey and her family are fantastic sitters! Her children love dogs and her dog Echo enjoys playing with Poppy. Lindsey makes every dog feel welcome and loved. She does extras like supplying extra food, treats and time outside. I was afraid my pup wouldn’t want to come home after all of those belly rubs!!”

“Mandy is so easy to communicate with and always responsive! She is very caring and attentive. I really enjoyed reading the Rover card every day, and I’m glad to see that she built such a wonderful friendship with my cat. I also have to emphasize—Mandy is a great photographer! Many of the photos she took are cute enough to be portraits (I secretly saved some of them🤭).”
“Jennifer was such an amazing sitter for my furry babies. She took her time to ask questions and understand well how to care for them. The updates and pictures always were on point and left me feeling that my babies were in very caring and capable hands. Next time I will look for someone to look after my babies I will go for Jennifer.”
“Kim was so easy to work with - she responds to messages very quickly, sent written and picture updates, and had a simple set-up for key drop off and pick up. I could tell my cat was very well cared for while I was gone!”
“Natalie is such a great sitter! Our cat is very shy around new people. It took a couple visits, but she decided she really liked Natalie. She’s the best!”
“Austin was great! He came over and met the cats before he took the job and we discussed any concerns we have. He gave us pictures of the kitties every time he took care of the cats, played with our youngest kitty every time, and was very understanding when we got the dates of our trip wrong. He even took in the recycling container that we left out and a giant Chewy box (which we were not expecting!). Will definitely consider hiring Austin again in the future if needed! :)”
“Sidney was on time, easy to communicate with, and took exceptional care of our cat! We were able to find a schedule that worked for both parties, and we received photo and text updates for each visit. Sidney is our new favorite pet sitter in the area!”
“Mandi is wonderful - so sweet, excellent communication, and clearly a cat lover. She took thorough notes during our meet and greet and then took great care of our two senior kitties who need medication! We’ll definitely book her again.”
“Ali was so wonderful! We got married last weekend, and had the best time knowing she was checking in on our kitties. She took the best pictures of them ever, and they had fresh water and food. Litter boxes and even our high maintenance wet food w/ medication was handled. Can’t thank her enough ?”
“Janay did an excellent job taking care of our cat. She promptly responded to our messages and went out of her way to make our cat (who is a bit skittish) feel comfortable around her. Highly recommended!”
“Krista did a fantastic job watching our cat. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch over their pet. She went above and beyond what we asked of her, and our cat loved her!”
“Anna did an incredible job taking care of our house and our cats! She asked great questions that showed she really cared, she sent updates every day, she navigated some unique care instructions really well, she left the house nice and tidy, and our cats seem to be in good spirits. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Amazing as always, goes above and beyond for my kitties. Lots of people can drop in to reliably feed or medicate your pets, what sets Iva and Eduardo’s care apart is that they not only take care of your pet’s physical needs, but also spend fun quality time with them to meet their emotional/social needs while you’re away. It is such a relief knowing my pets are both exceedingly well cared for, and are also having a blast getting to play all of their favorite games !”
“Yvonne is a delight! My cat fell in love with her immediately and she made him feel comfortable right away. Yvonne was very communicative and I knew my cat was in good hands. This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience.”
“Megan was wonderful with our cat. She provided food and care, followed requested instructions, and was attentive to our cat's needs. Megan communicated with us everyday, providing details, and sharing photographs of our cat as well. She was kind to us and, more importantly, caring to our cat. We will easily suggest Megan's care to others and will be returning to her ourselves.”

“Gen was very responsive. She answered questions quickly and sent a lot of great pictures. My dog actually had a healthy amount of play and sleep instead of being overstimulated all day like she would at a traditional day care.”
“Hanna saved me in a sticky situation where I needed to board my dog unexpectedly. She was able to alleviate my worries about my fur baby being cared for while I was out of the country and I can’t thank her enough!”
“Julie did great job making me and my dog Stella Watson very comfortable from meet and greet thru 1st daycare visit. Stella had wonderful time playing with Zilla and zooming around the yard and house. Will be hoping to visit again soon!”
“Jiayi has been super helpful watching my 13 week old golden retriever puppy! I was nervous to leave him with anyone since he’s still so young, but Jiayi sent pictures, videos, and updates multiple times throughout the day. She has everything needed for a puppy and goes above and beyond. I never worry when I take him to her house as I know he’s in great friends and gets to play with her dog Luca. Would recommend her to anyone looking for a daycare:)”
“My little pup Macy had a wonderful, exciting day with Gina and her kiddos! She was given lots of love and attention - wore her out in the best way possible! Thank you so much Gina for taking good care of her!”

“Jenny and Darin were great! They provided updates throughout the day and took great care of our slightly anxious puppy :) Will definitely book with them again!”
“Jeanette has been wonderful with my puppy Norman! She sends photos and updates through the day, and he’s so excited when we arrive at her house. He loves playing with the other dogs, and appreciates the snuggles from her, too. She’s awesome!”
About: I am a previous dog owner and current cat mom. I grew up watching dog and cat training shows on TV and going to in person purebred dog and cat show events. I enjoy spending my time with furry friends. I'm a in-home caregiver to my mom so I have lots of time to take care of your pet. I have weekly events on Sundays and Wednesdays, but can easily work around those times. I have a long line for when your pet is outside and lots of patio seating to supervise and play with your pet the whole time. I also have a crate for indoor use.
“Martha is so great, she accommodated us last minute which was so helpful! She sent update pictures which I really appreciate! Uma was in great care and had fun with her boys. They took her for walks and played with her. I’d recommend Martha and her family :)”
“Last minute, but with wonderful communication and top care. I got lots of photos and updates on my old girl. She has separation anxiety so probably not the easiest. But Taylor and her husband are lovely people and took good care of her for the evening! Many thanks❤️”
“Pri took care of my 9 month old for puppy daycare when I needed to get some painting done at the house. Lily can be busy so she probably kept Pri on her toes throughout the day. Pri sent adorable pictures of their walks and Lily came home tired and happy! Looking forward to booking again in the future.”
“Kristin and Bruce provided exceptional daycare services. My senior dog initially had anxiety being in a different home. Kristen and Bruce were very attentive and made her feel comfortable.”

“Jennifer was great with my big, goofy mastiff-pitty mix! And Jupiter/JuJu loved his walk and sniff time with her…he came back ready for a nap! Glad to have Jennifer on board as part of Jupiter’s team!”
“Victor always does a great job with my little Buddy. Sometimes I am nervous about how my dog might react around a new person, but Victor has been amazing and Buddy loves when he visits. Definitely recommend!”
“Austin is fantastic! I love all of the pictures, updates, flexibility, and care he takes while walking Mazie! She always looks so happy and excited! Will recommend Austin to anyone and everyone!”
“Alisyn has been wonderful with our dog, Indy! We would highly recommend her for dog walking. She is professional, dependable, and communicative. Most importantly, she made Indy feel very comfortable right away. We greatly appreciate the Rover (Report) Cards and photos after every walk. Thank you, Alisyn!”
“Highly recommend! Jiayi took the time to learn my dog and provide great care for her. My dog was able to relax and unwind with her and I had peace of mind knowing she was being cared for. Jiayi also does a great job with communication.”
“Joseph is great with our AmStaff. The basics of timely and great communication definitely met. But then way above and beyond in his care and exercise of a high energy 5 year old Staffie. Koda is is noticeably and positively impacted by the days Joseph visits. Strongly recommend!!!”
“Michelle did an excellent job. When we first met, she took notes about my requests. She followed my directions precisely and took excellent care of Myla. I received updates before, during, and after Myla's walk and she left very thorough notes on the visit card. I highly recommend Michelle.”
“I’m so thankful to have Allegra as a dog walker- she is a rock star! I feel so safe with her care with the dogs, and she always has great feedback after every walk.”
About: I have experience working at Paw Pals taking care of cats and dogs. I have also raised and cared for hamsters, horses, birds and bunnys. I'm currently working part-time to only care for animals so I have plenty of time for your animals! Let me know when you need me and I will be there! They will get the time they need. ❤️ Your pet will have the whole downstairs to themselves and lots of play space. I have two friendly cats that are willing to be friends with your pets but they will be upstairs. There are multiple grassy areas to run around in around my condo and trails to walk your pet that will allow them to play in. Treats treats treats❣️
“Molly takes excellent care of my dog. She is communicative, very respectful of my home, kind to my dog, and ensures my dog’s safety every booking. I am lucky to have found Molly. I will definitely book again!”
“Jennifer is great! We'd love for her to walk our dog again (in fact we already rebooked). We needed help once a week with our 8mo puppy. Jennifer always picks him up on schedule and returns him happy and well exercised! Our dog loves everyone but my husband is convinced the pup loves Jennifer extra.”
About: Was the owner of a very well loved Labrador, Gauge and recently added Winnie to the family so plenty of experience with dogs. As a family of 6 we have lots of energy and love to help watch your pup. I work part-time outside the home and my spouse works at home full time so they will get plenty of attention during the day. Additionally my 3 kids love animals. I am flexible with what works best for your dog including more frequent walks, using a crate, special diet, or letting them use my home like any other guest.
“Aliyah responded very quickly to my request for dog walking while I couldn't get my 2 large fur babies out. She was kind, quick to bond with them, lovely to chat with and although it was a splurge for me it definitely feels worth it. The dogs liked her immediately, which isn't always the case with our oldest, more shy Sheepadoodle. As I write this, they are spread out on the floor tired, so goal met. I'll definitely ask for Aliyah's help again.”
“Mik and Augie were the sweetest and very loving with our dogs. I am forever grateful that they were able to stop by to let our dogs out and love on them a bit when we had a long day of work!”
About: My pet-sitting experiences include looking after both cats and dogs day to day and for extended periods of time. When taking care of cats, I make sure they have clean water and food at all times; keep their environment clean; watch over them and see if they are healthy; and interact with them by playing with them on a daily basis. I also have experience caring for dogs of various sizes and energy levels. Making sure their fed, walked, groomed, and cleaning up any messes/ their environment. In addition always making sure they have access to clean drinking water and providing plenty of playtime and attention. I occasionally take care of a family friend’s dog who has arthritis. I help keep her comfortable through gentle massages, giving her medication as directed, and hand-feeding her when necessary. In doing so, I learned to be patient and attentive in caring for an animal's individual needs. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals. I always go the extra mile into taking good care of animals, ensuring their safety, and comfort in the absence of their owners. I treat every pet as if they were my own and doing everything I can to ensure their happiness. I am extremely flexible with regards to my schedule, and can be available for the most part of the day. I wake up early, so feeding and taking the animals for walk won't be a problem at all. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I value their safety, trust, and maintaining a calm and familiar environment for their pet. It is important for me to carefully follow all the instructions concerning their feeding schedule, treatment, taking medication, and other specific care. It goes without saying that I make sure that the pets receive proper meals and have clean water to drink. I also try to keep the house as clean as possible, including litter boxes for cats and any messes that may occur. I also observe the pets to ensure everything seems normal and they’re healthy. I believe that building trust with both pets and owners is essential, I’ll always provide them with updates and photographs about the current condition of the pets. My goal is to make sure their pet is cared for and mostly importantly happy.
“We have a reactive dog that needs time, space and discipline. Sidney is very friendly, understanding and willing to work with us to make our pup comfortable. We are happy to book her again!”
“Jordan is an amazing dog walker! My dog loves him. He is reliable and really considerate of the dog’s walking experience. He gets to know the dog and what the dog needs. Every time my dog returned she was calm, happy and had a big goofy grin on her face. We had difficult weather during the week he walked her and he was great about communicating with me to work around the weather and make sure she had a great walk. I highly recommend him!”

“Juan has great! He and his son were very attentive with our dog. We were sent pictures throughout the day, and given updates about how our boy was doing! He has very high anxiety with strangers, and he had no problem calming down and napping with this family! When booking, we were told another dog would also be in Juan's care. He made sure that was okay with us, and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs never crossed paths (as we don't know if our dog is good with others yet) If you need a sitter, Juan is a great option! Very flexible, kind, and an overall great influence on your furry friend!”
