1. Billy & Emma D.
“Billy is very responsible and really cares about dogs. He has cared for dogs in the past through WAG and never had a problem. He gives the dogs all the attention and never leaves them alone. I highly recommended Billy if you need someone to watch your dog.”
2. Man S.
“Man was great with our two cats! He dropped in on them for two weeks and consistently played with them and gave them some treats in addition to the necessary stuff like scooping litter. I also really appreciated that he provided us with good updates and photos so we knew they were doing well.”
3. Megan G.
“Megan is the best! She was so sweet to my cat, who absolutely adored her. She went above and beyond with communicating with me, my requests and spending so much time playing and engaging with my cat. She's the best cat sitter and I cannot recommend enough! My cat will miss Megan, she truly crafted a special bond with her. 100/10!”
4. Emily R.
“Emily was so great! She kept us updated about her visit and how our cat was doing while we were gone! I can tell our cat grew comfortable with her too!”
5. Luna J.
“Luna is fantastic. Fantastic for the pet owners and fantastic for the pets. I think she is exactly what you want a pet sitter to be. She looks at pet sitting and the pet's life from their point of view and does or suggests what she feels is in the best interest of the pet. This, I think is exactly what a pet owner wants.”
6. Ramona June D.
“Ramona has dropped in on our cat while we’ve been away for a week +. She is very punctual and reliable and provided updates/pictures after each visit. We will continue to use her for our cat while we are away!”
7. Carly J.
“Carly has a natural warmth about her, and my kitty took to her right away - which is unusual as my cat is normally quite shy. She sent photos and videos with each visit and was more consistent with her timing than I am. I have hired her twice and will continue to do so.”
8. Christopher G.
“Christopher is my first Rover experience, and he was AMAZING. My cat fell ill with a rare and extreme case of toxoplasmosis in January (close to death), and due to his medical needs and my excessive concern, I almost cancelled my first vacation in over ten years. He made me feel comfortable, clearly loves animals, and provided thorough updates (plus cute photos!). I came back to my baby with vast improvement meaning the medication was administered accurately and is working. I can’t say enough other than I will for sure book him again when I travel for work! THANK YOU CHRISTOPHER!!!”
9. Melissa K.
“I can’t recommend Melissa enough! She took amazing care of my cat over Thanksgiving. She was timely, attentive, and left my apartment neat as can be. It gave me peace of mind knowing my cat was in such good hands and I will be booking with her again!”
10. Soo Jee L.
“Super flexible and sweet! Our Archie girl loves play visits from Soo Jee”
11. Ava J.
“This was my first time using Rover. Really recommend Ava as a pet sitter and will book again! Ava took such good care of my kitty while I was away. Ava gave her medicine, played with her, and followed my instructions for litter box and food/water with each visit. Ava is fantastic!”
12. Victoria M.
“Victoria is completely dedicated to the welfare of your pet. Our cat Pip is very shy, but Victoria knew just how to interact with her so she wouldn’t be afraid. Victoria also kept complete track of Pip’s medical situation, as we needed, posting informative pictures, and giving us the update on Pips condition every day. I recommend Victoria without hesitation!”
13. Mary V.
“Easily accommodated an situation with my dog and was available to watch of my pup under skirt bodice. Sadie seemed very calm and chill when i got home so that's a big deal. She usually barks like crazy. Anyway, we love Mary and will be using her in the future! How you will, too!!!”
14. Kristina W.
“Kristina is my go-to sitter in the neighborhood who I can rely on to feed and do a check-in on my little mischievous cat when I'm away for a night. I knew I could rely on her expertise and judgment when she pointed out a potential hazard in the apartment after her first visit! I always feel a little more at ease knowing Kristina has dropped by and confirmed that everything with my cat seems OK.”
15. Anastasia L.
“Wonderful! Took great care of my kitty while I was away”
16. Rachel B.
“Rachel was so good with our new puppy Winnie! She kept me updated throughout the day how Winnie was doing, which I appreciated. We’ll use Rachel again for sure :)”
17. Sara T.
“Sara is an absolute Angel with dogs. She spent 5 years rescuing dogs from the dog meat festival in china and now spend her free time making sure these lovable creatures find a safe and happy home. Given her experience with rescues, she also goes above and beyond for the pets of others. Her attention to detail on caretaking for my pets has left me completely speechless and sometimes I feel like she’s a better pet mom than I have ever been.”
18. Christopher C.
“Chris did a great job watching out for our two kitties, he sent video updates and made sure to give them lots of attention. Will definitely be rebooking Chris!”
19. Victoria B.
“Victoria has been absolutely awesome with my little Frenchie puppy. She comes twice a day to play with the puppy, feed her, and train her on the pads. She’s responsive and reliable which is crucial when you have a ~12 week old puppy who needs a strict training schedule. She sends really detailed report cards with adorable pictures that I look forward to every day at work. I can tell she loves my puppy (and that my puppy loves her as well!). Would highly recommend.”
20. Lauren D.
“Lauren did an excellent job sending updates and photos of Minnie, but most importantly was so great that my shy kitty took to her immediately!”
