3. Ashlee P.
“Ashlee is the best! She has been the only person I have trusted to come to let my pups out, feed them and just love on them when we’re gone. This time was a spur of the moment thing and she was awesome! We are so grateful for her kind self and her love for our babies!!!”

“Bailey always does such an amazing job. I have zero worries when I’m away. Bailey provides genuine love and care to my Lilly when she checks on her.”
5. Madison B.
“Madison was amazing! Very friendly and sent great updates of our little ones while we were gone for Memorial Day weekend. Would definitely book with her again.”
6. Casey S.
“Our cat seemed to really open up to Casey! In the past when we have hired sitters through Rover we were sent pictures of her hiding under the bed and that made us feel uneasy while away from her, but Casey sent pictures of her out and about and even eating! That was definitely a sign to us that our cat felt safe. She was very accommodating to our last minute trip and communicated with us the entire time. She will absolutely be our first choice the next time we go on a trip, and I’m sure our kitty would be happy to see her again!”
7. Janelle B.
“I have never used Rover before and so this was a large leap of faith for me to let someone watch my pets for 5 days. Janelle proved to be diligent in sending me updates everyday, and went above and beyond to provide for my fur babies. One of my kitties ate all the food left in her automatic feeder (knocked it over ugh) and they were not going to have enough food to last until we came back, so she went to the store and picked up more food for them!! I would recommend Janelle every time and will be using her again in the future for services 💕🥰 Thanks again!!”
8. Sydney E.
“Sydney has watched my two cats with special diets several times. She is not only hardworking and passionate about pets, but she also has the biggest heart. Sydney loves all animals, and is one of the friendliest, most thoughtful humans you will find out there. She is trustworthy, punctual, and so communicative!! I’d trust her with my pets (and anything else ever, probably lol) any time. Don’t wait - hire this incredible lady!!”
9. Nicholas K.

“Gabriela is a wonderful sitter. She has such kind energy. She followed all the instructions I provided and sent tons of photos of my sweet pup. I'll definitely call on Gabriela again!”
11. Kylie P.
“We had a really good experience with Kylie taking care of both the cats. Both cats gelled with her, she made sure to share many pictures from every visit. Had a peace of mind, knowing they were in good hands. We will definitely approach her again if we get a chance.”
12. Joshua S.
“This is the 3rd time I’ve used Josh to watch my pets when I was away & just as always he did a fantastic job!! He spends hours with them, playing with my dog outside & lounging on the couch with my cat. He sent me updates everyday making my two week vacation stress free. I’m sure my pets can’t wait for my next vacation so that they can spend more time with Josh!!”

14. Hanling S.
“Hanling has been an amazing pet sitter for my cat, Peaches. Throughout my time away, she provided exceptional care and attention to Peaches' needs. Hanling was diligent with feeding, administering medication, and cleaning the litter box. She even noticed and addressed potential health concerns, going above and beyond to ensure Peaches' well-being. Her communication was excellent, keeping me updated with detailed messages and pictures. I felt at ease knowing Peaches was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Hanling for her professionalism, kindness, and genuine love for animals. Thank you, Hanling, for your outstanding care and support during this tough time!”
15. Marijka L.
“You'll never regret trusting your pet(s) with Marijka. She is an animal-lover at heart and has specialized knowledge to keep your pets engaged during their time with her. They'll come home happy (and tired!) and maybe even with some cool action shots, as Marijka is also a talented photographer who uses furry friends as her main subjects! Book her now!!”
16. Yaneli H.
“Yaneli is a wonderful pet owner. She has a Rottweiler that she adores and always goes out of her way to make sure he has the best life. Overall Yaneli is responsible, kind-hearted, and determined in her daily life.”
17. Jamie M.
“Jamie always makes me feel like my dogs got attention and their needs were met while I was absent. This past week my work schedule was insane and I ended up being gone 16-17 hrs a few days in a row. Jamie was accommodating when I reached out at the very last minute as my schedule changed. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
18. Corinne B.
“Corinne is great with our cat and a wonderful sitter! Always timely and very great at communication.”
19. Val G.
“Val was amazing! She did drop in visits for my dogs for about five days. On each visit she took pictures and updated me on the status of my dogs. I could see on their faces that they were having fun with Val. She even bought them some toys to play with. She was very attentive and responsible.”
20. Andrew P.
“Andrew has really gone out of his way for me and I am very grateful. He is detail oriented, proactive, thoughtful, and he responded quickly and sent me pictures and video for peace of mind. I feel lucky to have found him”
