“Sabrina and Daniel were wonderful! It's clear that they are both dog smart, and they did a great job taking care of my pup, Poppy. Poppy has some anxiety and reactivity, and I felt comfortable and confident that Sabrina and Daniel would meet her needs. Plus, I loved the daily updates and photos while I was away. Thanks, Sabrina and Daniel!”

“Meagan was excellent with our 2 cats. We went on a 2 week vacation and Meagan was flexible with our house sitting schedule. She sent awesome updates and we were at ease that our cats were happy and healthy for our entire trip. From the get go she was communicative and attentive. I would recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!”

“This is our second time having Justin stay at our home for ten days and take care of our cat. We couldn’t be more pleased with his professionalism, maturity and responsiveness. Having peace of mind when we go on vacation is such a gift and we are so happy we found Justin who provides that.”

“Jolene was a dream come true. She went above and beyond. She took care of our little one as if it were her own dog. She kept us updated with lots of pictures. She was responsible and meticulous about every detail. We're already signed up to use her again! Highly, highly recommend.”

“Davied took exceptionally good care of my Maddie for the 3 weeks that I was out-of-town. He asked good questions, wanting to make sure that he was giving the best care to my dog. As this was Davied's second house/dog sitting, Maddie was happy to see Davied, which is a 5 star recommendation.”

“Eunice is so wonderful! She understood my directions really well, asked a lot of questions beforehand, and it looks like Eddie had a lot of fun hanging out with her too. By the time I came back from vacation he was well fed and bright eyed. I can't wait to book Eunice again!”

“This is the second time using Uliana and I am very happy to have her watch my pup Ginger again. She loves dogs and cats and I appreciate her philosophy to their care. She stayed with my pup for 5 days and I knew Ginger was in good hands.”

“Lily was wonderful. Communication was great and Lily was flexible with our last minute booking needs and tentative return plans. We can tell our sweet doggo was happy and had a fun time while we were away.”

“Highly recommend Olivia! She went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable and taken care of. She’s so considerate and communicated and sent cute updates along the way. We love her!”

“Caleb loooked after our 7-month old Golden Retriver puppy and pet rabbit for 4 days and did a fantastic job! He spent tons of quality time with the animals (lots of walks and time playing outside for the puppy, and pets for the bunny) the house was spotless when we returned home. We would recommend Caleb and will certainly look to book him again when we have a need for a house sitter!”

“Margaret was the best! Such a sweet person, and you could tell she’s had a lot of experience around animals. She was professional, communicative and on time. And our pup loved her! Would definitely recommend her to everyone. Six stars out of 5. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Karen communicates well, always leaves my place clean, and keeps my dog Reese happy while I'm away! She consistently goes above and beyond to make sure he is cared for.”

“Myranda was amazing! From meeting her, she was super knowledgeable and knew about bloat and foxtails. She was every dog owners dream! Bowser had an upset stomach when she was watching him, and she went above and beyond to care for him - cleaning up, contacting multiple vets, etc, especially since we didn’t have much cell service. She even crocheted our baby a little bandana! 10/10 would recommend, we hope we get another change to book her in the future!”

“Carly was great! Our two boys, Teddy (Dog) and Tucker (Cat), loved her, and she gave us great peace of mind while on our trip. Perfect communication and sent us lots of pics!”

“Mandy was the most amazing pup and cat sitter! She was so professional and was the best to have while on our long two week trip. Our pets were just as happy when we got home as we had left them and the house was in perfect shape. We will definitely be recommending and using her again!”

“Emily did a great job caring for my cat and keeping him company while I was away for a long weekend. She left the house very clean. She did a great job giving him his inhaler and medication.”

“I picked Mary in part because of her past rave reviews with older dogs. She took GREAT care of my 17 year old shiba. Was communicative, left the house spotless, and I came home to a happy and well cared for pup.”
“Margaret watched my nervous dog Taffy for a week, and Taffy warmed up to her quickly. Margaret was responsive, respectful and reliable. I would not hesitate to recommend Margaret for house sitting.”

Wallingford pet parents share their Rover experiences
Yulia did a great job taking care of Murphy and our home while we were on vacation. She was easy to communicate with and made sure to send daily updates. Murphy looked very happy in all of the photos she sent, and we could tell he had a great time while we were away!

Megan was so nice! Extremely friendly and instantly made me feel reassured my 4 cats would be in good hands 🥹 our apartment was spotless when we came home and all the kitties got a good brushing. I love that she provided updates and super cute pictures, but made sure to check what our preference was for frequency since we were on a work trip and would be fairly unavailable. Super thoughtful! Highly recommend Megan although I wish she could cat sit only for me 🤭

My kitty and I are lucky to have found Margaret during this hot weather. She made sure my kitty was cool and comfortable, running my window AC and looking after the house. She was patient with my shy kitty and was great with communication, answering my questions and sending photos. Margaret provided a lot of relief from stress, knowing someone responsible was there to care for my baby boy.

Elena was a great dog/house sitter! She left our home tidy and clean after staying with our Dog Nico over the weekend. But more importantly, she took great care of our fur baby! We got lots of pictures, great communication and she even came over to feed him after her stay because our flight was delayed. Would highly recommend Elena!

Signe did an amazing job with Maverick. She provided regular updates, communicated possible unusual behavior with Maverick (his periodic nail chewing is unfortunately normal 🙄), brought in mail, left the apartment cleaner than I left it etc. all without my request. Maverick got tons of exercise and got to explore new places, which he loves. Highly recommend and hope to book Signe again in the future.

Katherine watched our house and pup for 9 days and she did an incredible job! Our pup is a bit anxious and Katherine handled it like a pro. It is obvious that Katherine is a true animal lover based on her patience and warmth, and I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her hands. Our dog loved hanging out with her and looked so happy in all of the picture updates we got! She was also such a wonderful house guest. I can’t recommend Katherine enough!

Onyx and I both love Melissa so much! She takes amazing care of him every time, takes wonderful care of my apartment and is super communicative. I must say she takes some awesome photos and videos of him too. I can’t recommend her enough. Onyx is always soo excited to see her and was even a bit depressed after she left! Thank you as always 🥰

We had a great experience with Rowan! Our young cat was clearly very well cared for while we were away. They spent lots of time playing with him, gave him plenty of attention and pets, and made sure he felt comfortable and happy. The updates and photos showed just how much care and effort they put in. It was obvious our cat really enjoyed Rowan’s company, and we came home to a relaxed, content kitty.

Saskia did such a wonderful job caring for our pups. She was so thoughtful and thorough in her communication, sent great pics & updates, and made us feel very comfortable that they were well cared for in her company. We are very grateful for her service, and would highly recommend to anyone!
