“Elizabeth was absolutely fantastic. She communicated regularly and sent pictures often. She also went above and beyond cleaning up which was a nice surprise after a week of business travel. I would highly recommend her and will be reaching out again.”

“Renee was extremely attentive, caring, and thoughtful with our crew! She even managed to get some liquid meds in our old grumpy cat without much fuss! She is very responsive and we felt great on vacation knowing they were in such capable hands.”

“Cat was incredible watching our two dogs! She was patient and attentive with our nervous dog, and made us feel comfortable while on our trip by checking in and sharing plenty of photos.”

“Wonderful house and dog sitter! Wren was spoiled rotten and (while excited to see us) was happy as a clam when we arrived back. We got lots of updates, pictures and videos. Thank you!!!!”

“Writing a 2nd review for the extra day we had to add on the back end of our trip due to train delays—because I really can’t overstate how helpful Karuna was during that time! She answered right away, locked in the extra day quickly, and stayed in touch that evening and throughout the next day to make sure our pets received the care they need. After the stress of the delays, it was such a relief to come home to our apartment in perfect order and our pets in high spirits!❤️”

“Oriana was absolutely amazing with our dog Daisy! Daisy can be reactive and needed several medications and Oriana handled everything perfectly. She sent regular updates and many pictures of Daisy which we loved to see. And she left our home spotless! We will definitely ask Oriana to watch Daisy again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter.”

“Daniel took such great care of our 2 dogs while we were away! He was very communicative, competent and super sweet to our pups. We would definitely recommend his services!”

“Highly recommend Kylee! She is very friendly, organized, reliable and took wonderful care of our three dogs while we were out of town. Kylee sent us a few updates daily and sent pictures to give us peace of mind. The house was also kept nice and neat! We look forward to having Kylee housesit in the future!”

“Lei is a fantastic pet sitter. She cared for my 3 year old golden retriever in my home while I was on vacation for a week and I felt very confident in all the care, attention, and love she gave to my pup while I was away. She kept me informed with many pictures and updates each day which I really appreciated. She paid great attention and followed all care instructions carefully. I enjoyed my vacation more knowing my pup was happy and in such good hands. We will use her again for sure and cannot recommend her enough!”

“We booked for Christina for house/dog sitting over the weekend and had a great experience. She sent daily updates of our dogs and left our house in great condition. We'd definitely book with Christina again.”

“Korrey watched our animals for two whole weeks, so we could go on a much-needed long vacation. He did a great job of caring for the animals & even wrangled all 3 of them to the vet for a routine visit. He loved them like they were his own. It was a relief to know they were given such good care & love. He was conscientious, communicative, & kept us up-to-date. We were fortunate to have his big open-hearted help.”


“Nicole housesat for me when I needed someone to take care of my cats, and she was wonderful! One cat had recently been started on medicine and I was very concerned whether the cat would tolerate another person giving it to her, but Nicole had no problem at all getting the cats to trust her completely. She sent me plenty of updates and I was able to enjoy my trip instead of worrying. I would absolutely ask her to come back and take care of my cats in the future!”

“There’s nothing better than coming home to your dog after a long trip especially when he’s calm and relaxed because he was well taken care of. Juan allowed me this joy. It was the first time I’ve used him and Romeo took to him right away. Juan updated me daily and was responsive to messages. He also left my house in great condition. Thank you for taking care of my baby. We’ll be seeing you again!!”

Westover Village pet parents share their Rover experiences
Karuna has been great with our two critters! I especially appreciate her flexibility and quick response times, as it’s made last minute delays/general travel chaos easier to navigate. I also really appreciate that when I forgot to update our care instructions after we moved, Karuna rolled with the punches and quickly figured out our new layout and where everything belonged.

We are so grateful to have found Sabrina to watch our pup Wrigley. We came home to a very relaxed, happy dog, and the house was exactly as we left it. Sabrina was communicative, sent daily pics/updates, and clearly took great care of Wrigley. Would not hesitate to recommend her and can’t say enough great things!

10/10 would recommend Tyler. She was extremely communicative before and during her stay at our place with our dog Sugar. It was very clear that Sugar got tons of attention and that Tyler really does care a lot. Sugar doesn’t do well with some other dogs and I felt very comfortable having Tyler walk her in our neighborhood. Tyler is professional, flexible, and has a great sense of humor which I appreciated in the updates she provided. We have already booked her again.

Emma did a wonderful job! She was very accommodating. She allowed our Poppy to stay at her home when renovations to our place were not finished in time. I don’t think Poppy behaved as well at Emma’s as she does at home so we truly appreciated Emma’s fortitude. We received sweet pics of Poppy out on walks with Emma and snuggling with her in her home. We would definitely recommend Emma!

Elizabeth was great with house sitting my 2 dogs. She was attentive and informative through out our entire trip. My 15 yr pom who is stand-offish warmed up sooner than I thought she would. We are very happy with all she did for my pups and we look forward to having her stay with them again.

Lizzy is the absolute best! From the beginning I knew my pup was going to be in good hands. She was responsive, communicative, trustworthy, and most importantly loves animals. Lizzy was more than capable of handling my 80lbs malinois, Lilah, which gave me the peace of mind I needed throughout my international trip. Prior to her stay, Lizzy made sure she understood all of Lilah's care requirements and I received updates and photos of playtime and their walks throughout her stay. Not only did I come home to a happy and very well cared for dog, Lizzy left my house in perfect condition. I could not recommend a better dog sitter, Lizzy is amazing!

Erica was very sweet with our Boston Terrier, Gilligan. She came over twice before the stay to make sure both she and Gilligan felt comfortable, which we really appreciated. She was understanding of his anxiety and willing to work within his routine, including his medication schedule. She was communicative while we were away and made sure he was fed and cared for. Thank you for taking care of our pup!

Timothy was wonderful! He was very responsive and would proactively send updates and cute pics of my pup, Frankie. He was thorough and asked questions to ensure he understood her needs and typical routine. I could tell Frankie had a good time with him. I look forward to having Timothy watch her again in the future.

Laura did a great job caring for my dog and cat while we were out of the country. She was willing to come to a meet and greet, and I felt like my elderly dog with lots of needs was in good hands. She was very communicative and I would definitely book with her again.
