“This was our second time having Samantha care for our dog and cats. She is absolutely wonderful! Our pets love her! We will certainly book her again.”

“Penny was absolutely wonderful with our Bailey boy. He absolutely adored her and has been looking for her since we got home! She was very communicative and cared for him as if he was one of her own. 100% recommend her for any of your needs. We are ready to plan our next vacation knowing we have Penny to care for him ❤️”

“Cristina was a lifesaver! We were down to the wire with a short weekend trip out of town after finding out our prior sitter was lo longer in the biz. She took the job short notice, and did great with our little pup. She was friendly, took note of everything we told her, and very clearly cares for the animals she watches. We had her house sit with our dog and came home to our home as tidy as we left it. Our dog was happy to see us come home, and leapt up to the window to watch Cristina leave, clearly, she approved of the arrangement. She made us feel at ease leaving our dog and home with her and we couldn’t be happier. 10/10 will reach out to her again next time we need to be out of town!”

“Iuliia was great! Our two dogs were completely comfortable within moments of meeting her. They were very well looked after and I was able to enjoy my weekend away knowing they were having a great time!”

“Lilah was wonderful. We hired her for Xmas Eve and we felt 100% comfortable leaving our 7 month old puppy in her great hands. We met her about a week before our scheduled time and I immediately felt comfortable having her in our home and more important watching Remy. We talked about expectations (we just wanted her to hang out with Remy) and what we expected from her (just to hang out). Day of, she had taken him for a walk (wasn’t required) and sent me some pictures and we just touched base a couple of times to be sure SHE was okay!! Super happy with her and so thankful she was willing to watch Remy while my family gathered for Xmas Eve!”

“Nora was very conscientious to ask lots of questions and follow instructions. Took my dog on lots of walks and the house was in perfect shape when I returned. Will use her again and would recommend!”

“Stacia was a wonderful home and dog sitter for our senior dog. She took our dog’s special needs in stride and took amazing care of our home while we were gone. She communicated well throughout our trip. We would absolutely book Stacia again!”
“This was the first time Chioma stayed with Maxine. Maxine was a little stubborn about going outside but Chioma checked in with us and all went smoothly. House looked great when we got back.”

“Jacqueline stayed with our 7 month old puppy for four days and house sat. This was the first time we had left our pup. He had some stress accidents, she handled very well and cleaned them up. The house was left very neat, plants healthy, and dog happy. She communicated well and updated with pics. I would certainly recommend, very responsible, friendly, and caring. We will certainly use again!”

“Anna’s simply the best, she handles our slightly-silly pup with ease and is a great communicator. She cares for the pets as if they were her own, and isn’t that what we all want?!”


“Drew is outstanding! He stayed in our home and took great care of our dogs. He communicated clearly and responded quickly to our inquiries. And our dogs were happy to see him when he came back the next day, so I know they enjoyed their time with him. Highly recommend.”

“Gretchen is the absolute best!! Our pup loves her and she loves him right back. She is responsible. timely and caring -- all you could want in a sitter. We have used her for several months and highly recommend her to any Rover family.”

“We found Tacy to be very put together, organized and our dogs bonded and fell in love with her when she arrived a month ahead of our trip for our meet and greet. There was an instant connection between her and the dogs! When our trip happened Tacy followed up prior on times and schedules which was very nice and provided us peace of mind. While we were traveling she stayed at our home and provided continued updates throughout her stay. Tacy is a gem and I found so much comfort from knowing our 2 pups were being loved and well cared for while on our trip. I cannot tell you how wonderful and grateful I am for Tacy as this was our first time using Rover and our pups are pandemic dogs who need a little extra attention. We arrived home to find the house cleaner than when we left and the pups content, relaxed and actually tired from the enrichment they received from her visit. Tacy is exceptional, conscientious and I will schedule our next trip based on her schedule so we can use her again! Thank you Tacy for all you did for our sweet little pups! Tacy exceeded all of our expectations!”

“My elderly dog often gets very anxious and disoriented when I’m away, but he is very relaxed and at home with Summer. I’m confident that she will know what to do in various circumstances, and administering his medication is not a problem. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Paige was easy to communicate with and made me feel comfortable leaving my dog in her care. He is high anxiety and she did great with him and he was in great spirits when I got home.”
“Communicative, helpful, and goes above and beyond. Even with my chaos and last minute requests, Lisa was kind and communicative. Not to mention my dogs were relaxed and happy when I got home!”

“Liv was great! Lots of updates and photos. She bonded with our cat and dog very quickly. She did an excellent job of cleaning up going above and beyond our expectations. We would definitely hire her again.”

“This is our second time booking with Nate and we’d do it again! He took great care of our boys (cat + dog), was flexible as we firmed up our timing, and left our house in great shape.”
