Arantxa is the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. She sends the sweetest updates consistently, communicates everything, and helps out with the unexpected if it occurs while you’re away. My A/C went out while I was out of town, and she helped by replacing the filter and letting the repair man in. My pets adore her and I’m just so relieved to be able to rely on her when I travel. She keeps a tidy space and is so sweet and considerate. I book her whenever possible!!

Elle was incredibly considerate and took wonderful care of my dog. Elle sent lots of updates of my dog and asked thoughtful questions during our first visit to get to know my pooch. Elle was incredibly respectful of my space and and made sure she understood what was needed to take care of my dog. I would absolutely hire her to spend time with and stay overnight with my dog.

Mary is awesome! She's very communicative and gives our dogs the extra attention they need while we're away. She's very reliable and really came through when my travel plans home were cancelled unexpectedly and she was able to extend her stay for an extra day.

I can't recommend Jewel highly enough. She stayed at my house to take care of my dog while I was out of town for 10 days and she really went above and beyond with everything. It's great to know I have someone I can trust when I travel and I'll be absolutely be reaching out to Jewel again for help in the future, and recommending her to family and friends!

OMG! Look no farther. If you want a GREAT Rover experience then Erica is your girl. She gave updates, sent pics, helped in any way possible, communicated often and was very respectful of my home. My dogs literally looked like they took to her quickly- which they never do so this was a testament to her “vibe”. I will hire Erica any and every time I need a dog sitter and recommend you do the same! 10 ⭐️’s

Kody is so great with our dog. From our meet-and-greet, we could tell he would be great! He’s very attentive and loving to our dog. He came to watch our dog at our house. He sent updates and photos throughout and left our place spotless. He was great with going medication. We have already made plans for our next petsitting with Kody. We are glad we found him!

About: Hi! My name is Addie and I a currently a pre veterinary student who loves animals and am super passionate about animal care! I am a veterinary technician and experienced in medical care, medicine administration, special needs care and trained in small animal cpr. I have a lot of experience as well with dogs such as volunteering at shelters very often for the past 4-5 years and I have fostered and continue to foster dogs of all ages in my free time for various shelters. Some of these fosters include a Bull Terrier and Great Pyrenees! In addition, I have experience in equine medicine, exotic animals medicine and previously worked at a dog daycare. I have a dog of my own, Suki (in my pictures) who is almost 2 years old, well behaved and potty trained who loves to make new friends if you would like me to take her along for walks or drop ins for some doggy playtime with your fur babies! I typically work full time Friday through Sunday but have open availability during weekdays which gives me more time to care for and play with your pets! I have lots of experience with walking dogs, crating them and overall handling them, keeping them safe but also happy. Throughout my time fostering new dogs, I have learned to quickly adapt to each dog and learn their personalities and how best to care for them which I believe is perfect experience for caring for other people’s pets.

Brandy did a great job taking care of our big dog and home while we were out of the country for two weeks. She shared regular updates, did well with some home tasks like managing mail, packages, basic pool water, and of course taking amazing care of our dog. I felt very comfortable leaving her in charge. We will book again!

Caroline was GREAT to work with for a July 4th house sitting. She was super sweet and attentive with our two dogs; very communicative before, and during, her house sitting; and asked a lot of good questions about our dogs' eating habits and behavior. This was our first time using a Rover and we underprepared her for how anxious one of our dogs with fireworks. We really appreciated her adaptability and care during the visit.

Jessica was fantastic with Riley during a week-long trip while I was away. This was our first time working together, and I was impressed by how quickly Riley warmed up to her by the second day since she typically takes 3–4 days to get comfortable with someone new. Jessica sent daily updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind and allowed me to fully enjoy my vacation and attend wedding festivities without worrying about Riley. She also went above and beyond in several thoughtful ways, including checking the mail, offering to take the trash out for pickup day without being asked, and taking extra care of Riley during the 4th of July fireworks when she was feeling anxious. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup and would absolutely book Jessica again. Highly recommend!

Sterling was great. I had a very short notice house sitting request and she was very accommodating (even meeting a day before due to my early departure the next day). Additionally you could tell she cared and she took her time to slowly gain my pups trust throughout the day. I will definitely look to use her again in the future.
