1. Stephen G.
“Stephen went "above and beyond" in caring for my dogs and my home during my time away. The fussy pups received special attention tailored to their needs. They had lovely long walks, lots of play time and even some nice behavioral training. In addition, Stephen also worked with another sitter to ensure there was no lspse in care on the few days he had previously booked with another client. Not only is he the epitome of professional, but my pups really seem to enjoy their time with him - I arrived home after an extended trip to hsppy, calm dogs - so nice!”
2. Art S.
“Art was wonderful with our kitty! He sent daily photos and kept us updated on our home. Great communication and the place looked so cozy when we got home. Highly recommend!”
3. Amara G.
“Amara is the best. When I returned from a weekend awa, my puppy, Loki, was relaxed and happy. Amara listened carefully to all of my instructions, and followed them all. When she had a question about them, she texted me. She also sent lots of photos. Could not have asked for more! I will book again! I would give 20 stars if I could. Ann”
4. Quynh N.
“Quynh is a wonderful pet sitter, very attentive to Homer & Mitzi with frequent communication and photos. She brought awareness to little details I can add to my pet sitter notes for future stays as well.”
5. Dalene K.
“Our dog was so loved and well taken care of. Dalene was an excellent communicator and proactively solved any issues that came up (like picky eating ect). We will absolutely be using Dalene again for dog walking and overnights.”
6. Robyn C.
“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! Robyn was absolutely incredible. She took amazing care of our dog while we were away and made the whole experience easy for us. She also kept us updated with tons of adorable photos! Communication was a breeze – Robyn was quick to respond and so easy to talk to. We could tell Yara was in safe, loving hands the entire time. Highly recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind while traveling. Thank you for going above and beyond!”
7. Annelliese D.
“Annelliese has been so thorough, in regular contact while we were away, sent greats photos consistently, and full of love for the dogs! So thankful that we’ve found her! Looking forward to leaving our dogs with her again in a couple weeks! Thanks for all your hard work Annelliese!”
8. Vanessa T.
“I was very apprehensive about using Rover but, at least with Vanessa, those fears were eliminated. She is very pleasant and professional. Brandi (10-month-old Shih Tzu) seemed very happy. We came home unexpectedly an hour early and found Vanessa on the floor playing with our baby. We will definitely use Vanessa again.”
9. Margaret F.
“Margaret was a wonderful dog sitter for Herman. She was responsive, respectful and took great care of our dog while we were away. She provided daily updates and many daily photos which were greatly appreciated. We will definitely book Margaret in the future for dog sitting Herman at our house and for weekly walks. It was our first time using Rover and an in home pet sitter for Herman and it was a great experience. We were at ease knowing that Herman was in great hands with Margaret taking care of him. We will definitely recommend her to family and friends.”
10. Alyssa R.
“This is our second time booking Alyssa to house sit our dog and cats. This time it was for 5 d/4 nights. She was easy to communicate with, responded quickly, and very reliable. She is also very sweet and provided excellent care to my sometimes shy dog. Would not hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her!!”
11. Ryan P.
“Ryan did a great job watching our two dogs during our vacation. He kept us well informed of what was going on at the house. Our older dog is shy and he got her to come out from hiding to go on walks. I really appreciate the job he did for us.”
12. Sofiya K.
“Sofiya is a caring and devoted pet lover who wholeheartedly enjoys supporting and being around all kinds of pets and animals. She will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is happy and healthy. Most importantly she treats each pet as if it were her own, making sure your pet is well and smiling.”
13. Kenny H.
“Kenny looked over Pani for a couple of days while I was out of town. He kept me updated frequently and followed instructions well. Pani was well exercised and relaxed!”
14. Kate S.
“Kate was lovely! She took on the big job of watching our three pups. She sent daily updates with pictures and took great care of our house. Really great experience!”
15. Stacey M.
“Stacey was awesome with our husky! Being a Rover sitter myself, I am very particular when it comes to my fur baby. It was clear right away that Stacey is knowledgeable and experienced with large dogs, and I felt confident she could handle our boy, even with his weird husky quirks. I loved that she sent lots of updates and photos, which put our minds at ease knowing he was getting the best care. She went above and beyond, spoiling him with treats and even picking him up to bring him to her house so he could run around her yard, since we don’t have one. We came home to a tired, happy boy, and he already can’t wait to stay with Stacey again next time!”
16. Arin C.
“We were so worried about our juvenile delinquent, Augie, but we definitely got the “dog whisperer” in Arin. Both pups were delighted in his care. We definitely want him to come again. Thank you Arin.”
17. Lindsey C.
“Lindsey was literally a perfect sitter. She provided so many updates with photos which we loved. Our dog had a recent surgery and she went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and taken care of 🥹 I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely be using her in the future.”
18. Chloe D.
“Chloe did such a great job with our puppy and cats. It’s wonderful to know your furbabies are being loved on while you’re away. We highly recommend her!”
19. Cassidy D.
“Cassidy did such a great job house sitting for us and taking care of our two cats! We were able to enjoy our long vacation knowing they were is such good hands. Cassidy is always very kind a professional and sends updates and pictures regularly!”
20. Laura V.
“Amazing care for our little girl. The apartment looked perfect when we returned. Laura is responsive and gave frequent updates with images too. I’d give 6 stars if possible.”
