“I had a great first experience with Penny! She was on time, sent updates and photos, left my home the way she found it, and seemed happy to spend time with my pups. Will definitely have her back.”

“Paige was awesome and took wonderful care of our dogs and home. She communicated updates when needed and was always professional. We wouldn't hesitate in using Paige again when watching our home and dogs.”

“Paige was such a gift! We loved all the photo updates while we were away and it's clear Paige is quite the cat whisperer. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our girls 🥰”

“Olive is very gentle and caring. Our fur babies gravitated to her instantly. She cared for our menagerie for a week. They and our house were in perfect order upon our return. She sent us updates and photos on a fairly regular basis. She was responsive and responsible. We recommend her and will use her again.”

“Kristina is ah-ma-zing! She sends multiple videos/photos during the stay, and obviously loves working with animals. She’s excellent person and we will rebook with her in a heart beat”

“Hailey is an incredible sitter. My cat was ill when I had to go out of town, and Hailey took amazing care of her and made sure she got her medication. Through no fault of Hailey’s, my cat had a medical emergency and had to be rushed to the vet. Hailey handled the situation perfectly, which is something I’m not sure I could have done. If you want someone who is caring, reliable, and able to handle themselves and your pet in a crisis, hire Hailey.”

“Abi took great care of Molly while we were on vacation. She sent us photo updates and left our space nice and clean. I will definitely be seeking out Abi’s help next time we are in need!”

“Rachel was awesome! She was great at communicating and kept me well updated while I was away. My pup was happy and content in her care. She was super flexible with my last minute scheduling. She did an awesome job.”

“Bailey sat my furry monsters for an extended stay and it’s like I wasn’t even gone! I received frequent updates and check ins and she even took Badger to see his friends at the store next door.”

“Cristina is the absolute best sitter. She’s so calm and warm. She sends lots of photos and keeps me updated. I trust her completely and know she’s taking good care of my puppy.”

“Gave excellent care and attention to our dog, including giving needed heart medication. Appreciate her sending videos of his walks and play time. Kept our house neat and clean.”

“Sarah did a great job staying at our house and taking care of our dog while we were away for the holiday. It can be hard to be away, and we really appreciated knowing Isabella was well cared for. Sarah was responsive to any updates or requests, was very communicative, and shared helpful updates throughout. She took Isa on outings and walks, and adjusted her care when Isa’s stomach got upset. We came home to a clean house and a happy dog. We hope to have Sarah stay with Isa again in the future!”

“Hannah was awesome!! Rosie dog fell in love with her right away so I knew she would be in good hands while we were away. Hannah provided great updates and tons of pictures!! Always answered quickly when I checked in!! She also left a detailed note of the days we were gone including how walks went, etc. Can’t wait to work with her again!”

“Chioma was great- my dog can be a little wary of new people but Chioma was very patient and sent a lot of nice photos during her stay and took him on nice walks (in the heat!). My cat is also not the most friendly but Chioma charmed him, too. Thank you!!”


“Rachel was amazing! She did a great job with our cats and dog. We unexpectedly needed a second overnight pet sitter, she was quick to respond to my request. Thankfully, it worked with her schedule. It was a relief to know someone familiar with our pets was able to care for them again.”

“Emma did an AWESOME job! She kept us updated with pictures and our cat who never trusts anyone was totally content and happy with Emma and hung out with her all weekend. One of our dogs has to take medication and Emma was very professional and had all the medical stuff under control. Emma did a fantastic job and we will absolutely ask her to watch our two dogs and cat again!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver to our 2 little dogs. Judy was absolutely wonderful with them and gave them the best attention and care while we were gone that week. Excellent communication throughout with pictures and updates and gave them so much love and attention. Took great care of our home and left things very clean when we returned. We will definitely contact Judy in the future to care for our little girls. So very grateful!”

West Side pet parents share their Rover experiences
From our first meet-and-greet to our hand-off at the end of the sit, Bailey was a fantastic caretaker for my high energy and anxious dog, whose name is also Bailey! She is professional, clear with communication, timely, dependable, and consistent. She sent me updates and photos every day and responded quickly to messages. Bailey was patient and thoughtful with some of my dog's behaviors and helped reinforce some of the things I have been working on with her. She really went above and beyond- cleaning up the house, doing the laundry, and refilling the treat jar before I came home! I would absolutely welcome her back to my home to care for Bailey and recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and responsible sitter!

Liz was amazing, I knew Lottie was in great hands from the start. We hate being away from her, but were very comfortable being away for six days, even though this was our first time having Liz housesit for us. She definitely went above and beyond what was required, and left our house exactly as we did. She sent so many photos and provided great updates which we loved. We will definitely use her again.

Another amazing experience with Elizabeth who is by far one of our best pet sitters to date. Communication was exceptional with daily photos and anecdotes. Also, our home was cleaner than we left it. She even ensured the Easter Bunny arrived for our daughter while we were out of town. I would go beyond five stars if I could!
Daniel was communicative, kind, and thorough in taking care of our dog and cat. He made sure to get all the info he needed and even washed the sheets after house sitting! While we were halfway across the world, we felt totally at ease with him taking the helm for us. His thoughtfulness and professionalism are just a few of the reasons we will definitely book him again.

Carmen did a great job caring for and entertaining my two high energy dogs over my week long vacation. They were very comfortable with her in our home. They got lots of attention, play time and walks. She also did a good job cleaning up the house before I returned.
