1. Celeste K.

“This is the third time we have enlisted and entrusted CJ to care for our Blue Heller, Banjo. She does an excellent job of providing great care, sending photos during her in-home visit, and communicating with us while we're away. Having CJ drop in to check on Banjo and keep him active gives us definite peace of mind when we have to leave our sweet boy home for a few days. Would highly recommend CJ's Rover services.”


2. Madalynn V.
About: For the past 2 years my family and other families have relied on me to care for their fur babies. I enjoy taking care and watching them live their best lives I currently do not have another job so I have a lot of time to watch over your babies and ensure they have the best possible care. I am very respectful when housing pets or when I go to another’s house. I understand that it is not my property and to know boundaries. I also am easy to reach and will send pictures to update the families

“Gabriella has taken care of our pups and cat two different times now and they're always well cared for. We get nice check-in notes and photos. Definitely would recommend. Thanks again, Gabriella!”


4. Lillie A.

“First time using Rover and Lillie has been amazing! We couldn’t be happier with the care she has provided for our pups. From the start, she was professional, in constant communication and passionate. Lillie kept us updated with check in’s and pictures, which gave great peace of mind. She was respectful of our home and went above and beyond, to take our packages in and left the house clean. I highly recommend Lillies services!”


5. Vanessa B.

“Vanessa visited with my girls while I was away, and took the best care of them. They were instantly comfortable with her and Vanessa took care in giving them the attention and play time they need before their dinner, keeping them happy during a lonely time :) thank you Vanessa!”


6. Rachel C.

“Highly recommend! During my trip, she provided regular updates and adorable photos. She went above and beyond by playing with my cats, keeping the litter box clean, and fed them appropriately. :)”


7. Hazel V.
About: I've had my own dog for 12 years, and caring for him taught me so much about responsibility, patience, and the deep bond between people and their pets. Alongside that, I’ve helped friends, and family by walking, feeding, and bathing their pets when they've needed it. I truly love dogs, from playful puppies to gentle seniors and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. I’m a full-time college student, but I always still manage to fit pet care into my life. I’m mostly available on weekends and during late afternoons on the weekdays. I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and it gives me a meaningful break from school. Your pup will get my full attention and care when they’re with me! I have a brick fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and get fresh air. My own dog is friendly and loves having company. Inside, pets are always comfortable and supervised. I let them out for potty breaks, play with them regularly, and can also take them for walks. I’m happy to crate your dog if needed and follow any specific routines you provide.


8. Erin T.

“Erin was so communicative, and clearly so full of love for critters! I would absolutely recommend her if you’re looking for confidence in knowing your furry loved ones will be cared for like they are her own.”


9. Rhiannon C.

“Rhiannon was fabulous! Our cat loved her. She sent photos and videos from visits and even brought some emergency litter when our cat's litter ran out. We will absolutely hire Rhiannon in the future!”


10. Tatiana R.
“Tatiana has takes great care in providing care for dogs. Prior to having her sit my dog, I didn’t realize some of the care my dog was missing. She pointed this out and helped improve the care or my golden retriever significantly. She truly has a passion for dogs and loves them deeply! Tatiana is the only person I trust with my Benji.”


11. Jolyne M.

“Jolyne has been great! She is dependable, leaves funny pet commentary about her visits, and had no issue with a special needs pet. Would recommend!”


12. Ailin C.
“Ailin was wonderful with our dogs! She made sure they were well cared for and keep us updated throughout her time with them. Would definitely keep booking her for the future!”


13. Savannah H.

“Savannah is wonderful! Very kind and dependable.”


14. Taylor K.

“I was so hesitant about having someone I didn’t know come into my home and care for my pups, but I’m extremely glad I booked Taylor. She did a meet and greet with us, which made me feel more more at ease. She was flexible with my changing schedule and communicated well. I have already rebooked her for another need and will continue to do so.”


15. Alexandra A.
“I am privileged to write of Alexandra's love of animals, her sense of responsibility, and her dependability. Alie will always carry through with a fine level of excellence. I recommend her as an excellent person in all she does! Judith L. Evans”


16. Leslie & James E.


“Leslie was so wonderful to my babies. I cannot praise her enough! She helped me when I was in a bind which will not be forgotten. She took pictures of her playing with them with frequent updates, as well. She is definitely worth 5 stars. If there was 6 stars, she would get them!”


17. Kiara M.
“I am Kiara M. cousin, and I can’t help but share how incredible she is when it comes to animals. Over the years, I’ve witnessed her interactions with countless animals, and I can confidently say that she is truly the most genuine and loving soul I have ever met in this regard. It’s remarkable to see how all dogs are drawn to her; they seem to sense her kindness and warmth. This opportunity would be perfect for her, as it would allow her to share her passion for animals and continue to spread her love and compassion to those who need it the most.”


18. Greg F.

“Greg is amazing! He was able to help us out last minute and our Kenzie loved him. He spent time with both my cat and dog and gave them cuddles and attention when we were away. Highly recommend him!”


19. Samantha G.
“Samantha is one of the most caring people I know! She absolutely loves dogs and loves taking care of them. She has, without any hesitation, adopted and cared for dogs that needed a better owner, even traveling across country to pick them up and bring them home. There is no better person to watch and care for your pets for those moments when you’re unable to. Your search for a pet sitter can absolutely stop here!”
