“Justin came to my rescue when I was running behind which was much appreciated. The critters were well tended and the house pristine when I returned. I can’t say enough good things about his service.”



“This was the first time Lucky had anyone other than a close friend or family member stay at the house with him. Jason did a great job of introducing himself through his meet and greet. Several days before his stay, he came by to get the key and played more with Lucky for familiarity. Kept me apprised daily how things were going including photos. Very friendly individual. Would strongly recommend Jason!”


“Jeff was SO wonderful with our big, high energy, 9 month old puppy! He took extra care to make sure that our dog got plenty of walks, dog parks visits, and time to hang out at home. He even worked with us to add on an additional walk last minute after we returned from our trip. Our dog loves Jeff and we can’t wait to have him back!”


“Theresa responded to a same-day emergency request. Without us ever talking online or in person she navigated the complex process to get into my building and was there to take care of my sick dog. I really appreciate how quickly she responded and her professionalism dealing with the lack of information and preparation I could offer.”


“Paula is friendly, proactive and responsible and I'd welcome her to a future sit with Phaedra. Before and during the sit, communication was clear and timely. Paula was willing to come previous to this first-time sit with my cat, Phaedra, to get oriented to her insulin injections, feedings, home and other details. She asked good questions and seemed at ease with giving the insulin and learning some new information on what to watch for with Phae's diabetes. Closer to the date of the sit, she inquired about another quick refresher visit and I very much appreciated her asking (since over a month had elapsed since our first meeting). She was willing to read over some diabetes information and watch an informational video (materials my vet had shared with me). All of this put me at ease leaving my cat for over a week even with her medical issues (and being blind and deaf as well). During the sit I got a couple updates and photos. The info she shared sounded appropriate as far as slight insulin adjustments based on kitty's food intake which I had instructed her to do. Upon returning home, Phae was well and content, yet happy to see me again - full of purrs. I expected my growing vegetable garden to take a hit during the unusual hot weather the week I was away, but I was pleasantly surprised at how well the plants and seedlings had fared thanks to Paula's willingness to water things, indoors and out. The house was tidy, laundry done and garbage/recyclables taken out.”


“Sabrina was such a great sitter for our 2 doggos, one of which has really bad separation anxiety! She checked in with us a couple times during her time with them. She ensured they had all the pets and cuddles! We can’t wait to have her back.”


“Yasmin took good care of my dog, Maddie, as well as my house. She was attentive to Maddie’s love of pets and belly rubs, and spent a good amount of time in her company. She followed my dog and house care instructions and asked questions when needing more clarification. I recommend hiring Yasmin!”


“Christian has been amazing with our dog Koda. Koda can be slow to warm up to new people but he immediately loved Christian and his calming energy. Christian has gone above and beyond to take time getting to know Koda before we take a long trip. We always know our dog is in amazing hands with Christian!”


“Davied took exceptionally good care of my Maddie for the 3 weeks that I was out-of-town. He asked good questions, wanting to make sure that he was giving the best care to my dog. As this was Davied's second house/dog sitting, Maddie was happy to see Davied, which is a 5 star recommendation.”


“Emphatically I recommend you Call Rachelle for your dog's needs....Having trust is very important with placing your home and your pet in someone's hands, Rachelle C. provided trust from the start and utmost confidence that both would be thoughtfully taken care of. With such a long 20 day stay, Rachelle provided above and beyond my expectations to make sure Gucci got all his needs met, and the house was better than when I left. She provided check ins, and made sure I knew any pertinent information to ensure all was good while I was 6000 miles away. Gucci showed his appreciation, in that he kept looking for her several days after. Thank you Rachelle for making this experience the best for Gucci and I.”


“We're very happy with Emma's house sitting and pet care for our dog and cat, and at the last minute as well. She was very communicative with us which appreciated, and she followed our pets schedule and routine to a T. Emma's energy was perfect for our anxious senior dog struggling with doggy dementia who needed many oral medications and overall specialized care. When we came home the pets were happy and content. Definitely will rebook!”


“Very thorough and responsive, we felt so comfortable leaving our two boys in Jon’s care. We were able to focus on our daughter’s wedding while we were out of state, without worry about our pups. We strongly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to walk or sit for their fur babies!”


“Elise did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Millie, who can be a bit of a handful! She was also so accommodating when we got home later than expected! Would definitely recommend her!”


“Emily did a fantastic job with our pups, Dempsey and Sandy. She provided updates on them throughout the days she was watching them. We knew they were well cared for and happy. Emily had a great demeanor when meeting our dogs for the first time. Both very quickly warmed up to her and we knew she’d be a great sitter for them. Emily also left our house very clean which is such a nice thing when coming home from vacation. We’ll definitely look to book Emily for future house sitting and dog walking when the need arises! I can’t recommend her enough!”


“Jenna was a wonderful dog sitter. She is a kind human and a great communicator. She is trustworthy and reliable. She gave us updates and photos; our dog was so happy with her! Thank you, Jenna!”


“Steph was a life saver. I needed a last minute pet sitter because my dog a was recovering from an injury and I'm so greatful she was available. Couldn't recommend more.”


“Emily went above and beyond as a house sitter for our two high energy dogs and cat. We could tell immediately that she had a love for our animals (and vice versa!) and the space. Emily was super responsive, sent us updates throughout the day, and was very communicative! We feel so comfortable with going out of town now due to Emily’s warmth and care for the animals.”

Whittier Heights pet parents share their Rover experiences
When our dog came down with kennel cough right before our trip, Sophia was a lifesaver! She was able to come do a meet and greet at the last minute and housesit for us. She won Marlow over quickly and was great about texting us updates and photos while we were gone. Our pup and house were in immaculate condition when we got back. We would be grateful for Sophia's help in the future, and highly recommend her to anyone!

Hudson was the perfect fit for our "Zoo". 2 big labs, Buck and Koda and our overly large indoor Tabby Tucker. He took the boys on walks, dog park and gave them lots of attention. House was in great shape and I would highly recommend for any future sits. He really has a way with animals which makes everyone happy within the household!

Allison was wonderful and we’d recommend her to anyone! Both our pups immediately warmed up to her when she came over for a meet and greet prior to housesitting, and she was communicative throughout the stay and sent lots of updates and pictures! Our dogs can both be high energy and one of them is very anxious, but Allison put us at ease about handling their exercise needs and medications. We look forward to having Allison back soon!

Davied was extremely flexible with our schedule change - timely responses - and plenty of love and attention given to our Juno girl while we were away. He sent pictures and updates throughout the day :) I would absolutely recommend Davied to anyone who needs a sitter for their fur baby :)

Angelique was wonderful sitting our 2 dogs & cat over the course of a few days + an extra bonus day she so kindly was flexible to add on, due to our plane getting delayed. She made sure to follow our pups’ feeding schedule and was even able to provide our Kitty with some last minute meds each day. Our pets can be pretty ornery and she took everything in stride and clearly made them feel safe and comfortable while we were away. She went above & beyond voluntarily watering my plants and taking care of our home. We trust & appreciate her so much & would absolutely rebook!

Rachael is amazing. She truly cares about animals and appreciates their nuances. My persnickety cat loves her and that is saying something! Rachael has taken care of my cat multiple times. It is a great comfort knowing that she is there for my cat when I am out of town.

Megan took great care of my two senior dogs. My rescue is now deaf and she is skittish but Megan quickly won her heart and they were friends. I loved the updates and photos. Megan is terrific with meds which one of my dogs now requires daily. I recommend her for all types of pet sitting and breeds.

Jenna was fantastic for both stays with our dog Maizy. She stayed for a long weekend and then did a two week stay July/August. Both times we came home to a happy pup and house. We received daily updates about Maizy and any concerns or questions she had about the house which were much appreciated. We will definitely rebook with Jenna for any future trips. Thank you Jenna!
