“Sallie was a wonderful dog sitter! She was very communicative and left detailed reports when watching our two dogs. You can tell she really loves animals, and our dogs were immediately comfortable with her the first time meeting her they were in great hands! I would recommend her to anyone!”

“The best! I feel so blessed to have found Tara S. She’s been amazing and my dogs definitely enjoy her. She has brought my husband and I comfort and peace knowing that our dogs will be taken care of in our home.”

“This is my 5th or 6th time using Liz. Every time she sends good pictures and her communication is great! Fast responses, clear pictures and happy dogs every time. I don’t recommend giving short notices if you don’t have to but my job is last minute demanding and she’s been the best at responding last minute.”

“Kristen was wonderful! She came over and met our dog before hand. She was very observant with all the details of the care routine. She showed up on time and was very dependable. We were quite anxious about leaving our dog for the first time, and Kristen put our minds at ease. We will be using her again in the future!”

“Lauren was awesome on drop in visits and walks for us. Great communicator who let us know about a plumbing issue that arose while we were gone. We were very happy we booked again with her.”

“One of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had. Always very responsive, works well with our cats, and helps clean up if the cats makes a mess. We recommend Sam to anyone who has a pet.”


“Rachael did an amazing job dropping to watch our 7 year old 110 pound retriever mix while we were out of town for several days. She was excellent to communicate with and I know she prioritized caring for our dog. We couldn’t have been more thankful for her dedication.”

“Mariah is great! My cat is a shy boy and she even managed to get me some photos of him which was so comforting to see he was doing alright. I can't wait to book her again!”

“Taylor did a great job dropping in and taking care of my dog's needs. This was my first time using this service and she was very patient, working with my dog during her visits. I would definitely recommend her.”

“Lauren took care of our 2 cats, Elwood and Asha, while we were away for Thanksgiving. She did a wonderful job! She checked in and out every visit and sent pictures so we could see how they were doing. Lauren followed through on everything the cats needed and when we returned they were relaxed and happy cats!”

“Eleanor was fantastic! She sent us pictures from each drop-in and even picked up some pillow fluff that the dogs destroyed. Could not be happier with having her for our babies while we had to be gone.”

“Carolina and Jenerth were excellent cat sitters and would 100% book with them again! my cat is very shy, but they were able to get her out from under the bed and playing. They went the extra mile with her as well as with my home. Each day, I received thoughtful updates and adorable photos, which made me feel at ease. Highly recommend this them for anyone needing a compassionate and dedicated caregiver!”

“We’ve used Ashlea for our high energy puppy as well as our 2 cats and she did a great job! Even when the puppy has some excitement pee problems, no issues 😅 she’s very communicative, punctual, and even helped us out for extra house care duties because of an emergency. Completely dependable :)”

Wellington cat parents share their Rover experiences
Rachael was very professional, communicative, and caring for our kitty cat, Remy, while we were on vacation. He was very happy with the care she provided, and he was well-fed and well-loved while we were gone. We will definitely request her services for our next trip!

This was my first time using Rover, and Lauran made the entire experience so easy and stress-free. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She truly went above and beyond when any issues came up. I would absolutely book with her again!

Adeline was absolutely superb!! She watched my 3 cats while I was away getting married and I had absolutely 0 worries while they were in her care. She would send updates/pics daily and let me know of any issues right away and was even able to do medications for one of my fussy guys; would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!
Quintin did a great job watching our dog and cat over a 4 day period. The animals loved him and he was very compassionate and caring toward them. We have an older dog that requires medication and he did well providing that to her. He even came over 2 additional times to check on them one day. I would recommend him to watch dogs and cats. We will certainly be using him again!
