“Laini is skilled at her craft. She is a wealth of knowledge and she provided me with some useful tips I intend on using in the future. She is simply wonderful and the care she took for Axel is unparalleled.”
“Susan did a wonderful job taking care of our senior shih tzu. She followed my directions perfectly. This included short walks, feeding schedule, play time, snuggles, & spending every night with her. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the 7-day stay. She even watered my plants and put the trash out. I haven't had great experiences with Rover and was about to give up. So glad we found Susan.”
“Alexis was great! We have only left our girl with family in the past, so we were nervous to leave her with a new person at first, but Alexis made us feel comfortable that Millie was going to be spoiled while we were away (and she definitely was!). Thanks Alexis for making us feel at ease, we didn't have a single worry about her while we were gone. ❤️”
“Oh my goodness, Maggie is hands down the best! She was the sweetest and most responsible pet sitter I could have asked for - pretty sure my pups were depressed when she left. Maggie took such care to feed and care for my girls just as I would have. She was just so good with them. My usually stand off frenchie was snuggling with her on the couch many times throughout the day. Maggie would send me pictures of the girls all curled up on her lap. We came home from our vacation to two happy, healthy pups and a perfectly taken care of home.”
“This was our second time having Avery house/pup sit and we couldn’t ask for a better experience! Very attentive and great communication will definitely use her again!”
“Ann did a stellar job staying and caring for our two dogs in our home while we were on vacation. We recently moved in and don’t have our fence up yet and Ann did great navigating taking them out on leash for bathroom breaks. We received ample updates and photos, communication was prompt, and Ann left our home in a clean condition. Our dogs were happy and well looked after and we would use Ann again in the future. We highly recommend!”
“This is our second time having Megan house/Dog sit for us. She does an incredible job! She is respectful of our home, has all the trash, keg, solo cups etc...picked up from her big notorious house parties she throws (as seen on insta 😉) JUST KIDDING!!!! About the house party not the being respectful thing! Our Blue is always happy the house is left as it was. We will continue to hire Megan as needed. You will not be dissatisfied having her stay with your fur baby. Thank you Megan for being AWESOME!”
“Adyson is an excellent pet-sitter. She cared beautifully for our precious fur baby, Poppy, for 3 and a bit weeks. She looked after our home and left it very clean and tidy. She communicated regularly with photos. She dealt very well with a vet appointment, and some unexpected contractors who came to do outdoor jobs. She is a lovely, caring and responsible person, and we highly recommend her.”
“Kaylan was a delight and Tibby responded to her very well. She was prompt and took good care with meds, food, walking and keeping my senior fragile pup safe and clean. Thanks Kaylan!”
“Maci was great as a house sitter and pet sitter. We left our little Frenchton (Frenchie-Boston terrier mix) Percy and our cat Feyre with her and she kept them entertained while we were away for a week. She sent lots of pictures and updates and was very communicative when she was coming and going from the house. We specifically wanted someone who would treat our pets as their own and be okay sleeping and cuddling with them (especially Percy who is a velcro dog) and she definitely did that! On arrival back to our house it was spotless and she definitely took good care of the house itself. Will definitely use her again for anytime we are away!”
“Roxanne was amazing! This was our first experience with Rover and with leaving our pup with someone other than family. Roxanne was so kind, provided updates without being asked and treated our dog like her own. 10/10 recommend!”
“Lila was excellent. She was a great communicator and was not afraid to ask if she had any questions. My dogs were well taken car of and loved on, and my house was kept clean. I highly recommend Lila.”
“We cannot rave enough about Ariel and Jorge!! They are the only sitters we trust with our 4 fur babies and we have peace of mind every time knowing that they are in the best hands. Ariel and her husband go out of their way to send updates along with pics for every visit, and they always spend extra time giving our animals cuddles and love. One of our dogs is a Rottie, and he’s a big boy-Ariel and her husband are fantastic with him! If you are looking for sitters in Phoenix-chose this wonderful couple!”
“Hannah was great with our girls arrived on time and was informative through her visit. I instantly felt at ease with her in our home as though we had been old friends. I would for sure use her in the near future. Thank you Hannah!!!”
“Sarah was communicative and kind. She met with us before our trip to see our home and meet our dog, and clearly gave her lots of love while we were gone. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Gloria was great we’ve found our rover person now. Our dogs love her and she is very prompt communicative and provides pictures and updates of how the dogs were doing while we were gone. She has also made herself available for drop ins too. Will continue to utilize her services going forward.”

Watauga pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alicia was wonderful! We received regular updates, including photos and videos. She seemed to understand the personality of each of our pups and made sure everyone got what they needed. We felt very relaxed during her stay - and even came back to a clean and tidy house. Highly recommended, would definitely book with her again in the future!
We are so glad that we found Susan on Rover! My husband and I just moved to the area, and we were looking for a dog sitter for overnight stays. Susan came to our house prior to dog sitting to make sure it was a good match! While away, she sent updates and texts, which I so appreciated. She spent lots of time with our dogs as they’re used to us being home often. Susan followed the dogs’ routine and took such good care of our house. We definitely recommend Susan for anyone else who looking for a dog sitter! 🐶
Haylee (and her adorable assistant!) took such loving care of our dog and cat duo while we were out of town for an extended time. It was so nice to receive updates and adorable photos while we were gone. Came home to a clean house and happy pets, great end to our vacation! Thank you!
Kaitlyn and Tai did a great job as always. We have used them so many times in the past (before Rover) and they never disappoint. I always feel that our pets are taken care of and the house kept up while we are away. I appreciate that my pets do not have to leave home to be boarded and I can pick the best carer possible. Thank you so much, you both really are a great team to have for our fur babies when we are away!
Ace is a fabulous sitter and I cannot recommend her highly enough! We absolutely trusted her with our multi pet household while we were gone. She took time to make sure all of our dogs’ needs were met and their quirks respected. Our house was left tidy and secure, cute photos were sent, and all our pets were very happy in her care.
I’ve had pretty good luck with finding good sitters in the past on this app and Madison definitely lived up to the expectation. I’m always nervous about a stranger staying in my home, however the Meet and Greet eased my nerves. Madison came over and she was so great with my dogs. The good treatment and cuddles continued throughout her stay in my home while I was on a work trip. I received updates and she even cleaned up a few messes my naughty new rescue caused. Being that I have a pitbull, a pitbull mix and a chihuahua, I wanted to ensure I felt confident with a sitter handling bully breeds as well as a small breed and Madison did just that. Thank you so much Madison! I look forward to using you again in the future.
