1. Lauren F.

“Lauren was one of the best Rover sitters we've had and I am recommending her completely! She was very thoughtful and helpful with our sick pup!”


2. Ash T.

“Ash was a GREAT house and pup took care of Whitney for 10 days while we were away with tons of walks, meals and treats, cuddles and rubs and overnight stays, long walks and visits with her best dog friend, and even handled a contractor visit and an appliance installation! Both our home and our pup were in great shape when we got back- would recommend Ash for six stars if i could.”




3. Matt L.

“I chose Matt because I had read his reviews and he lived up to the reputation! I think dogs are a good judge of character and she warmed up to him immediately upon his first visit to meet her. I had plans to leave the country and needed to feel like my pup was in good hands and well cared for. She has some special needs and Matt made sure she received the care she required. I loved the updates, pictures and videos Matt sent, all which helped me know she was happy and healthy. She even is jumping on people less! He somehow taught her to stop this annoying behavior and I need to find out how he did this!! I definitely would recommend him!”


4. Colin B.

“Colin was amazing and took very good care of our dogs over a weekend while we were out of town. He was very detailed in capturing all the information about our dogs during his first visit before we left. He captured thorough notes and asked lots of questions while getting to know the dogs and took the time to meet them and walk them multiple times before we left. While we were gone, he kept us updated every day, even if it was just a "they are doing great" text and a picture. Colin is very responsive and we will definitely be asking him to watch our dogs again!”


5. Iví E.

“Iví is a local grad student who took great care of our dog and cat while we were away for the weekend. As first time rover users we were wary of leaving our pets with a relative stranger, but after the introduction and some clarifying questions it was clear they would be in good hands. Iví sent us photo updates which were super cute and helped us disconnect and enjoy our out of state visit. Thanks for all your help!”


6. Alexis K.

“Third time having Alexis house sit and third time very satisfied! She takes great care of my crew and the house. Gives me great peace of mind when traveling.”


7. Bena W.


“Bena was a terrific cat sitter. She was great about communication, timely, and clearly played with and paid attention to my furry friend. I came back to a happy cat.”


8. Sydney V.

“Sydney was fantastic! She took excellent care of three very different pets (Two dogs and a cat). She really took the time to get to know their personalities and needs beforehand, and it really showed through in the pictures she sent, and when we returned home. Our animals were very relaxed and happy, like they had a good time in safe hands. She also nursed the garden through the heat, and we came back to our flowers and house looking beautiful. We will definitely book Sydney again!”


9. Lori L.

“We had a great experience with Lori house sitting our American Bully & Pit mix. Lori asked questions ahead of time, reviewed our instructions, and sent us text and photo updates. We couldn't have asked for anything more. We really appreciated all of her communication.”


10. Julia B.

“Julia is a great house sitter and the dogs are always relaxed when we get home which tells me they weren’t stressed while we were away.”


11. Amad E.

“Both my pup and I had such a great experience with Amed. Such a lovely and dependable person who is clearly a dog whisper! My anxious dog was not fussed at all when we returned. I think he enjoyed his experience very much and we felt like he was well cared for during our absence! Thank you so very much!!”


12. Anthony V.

“Anthony was responsible, prompt, and went over and above our expectations caring for our 3 dogs in our home for a weekend. One of the dogs was a handful during his stay and he did everything right, even losing sleep to make sure she was comfortable. I highly recommend Anthony for any pet care - he is resourceful, responsible, and excellent with dogs.”




13. Micah B.


“Maggie was great with our puppy while we were out of town she kept us updated and sent pictures and videos We will definitely have her watch our lil puppy again”


14. Ace G.
“Ace is our go to person for our very anxious yet adorable Beagle. Our pup is so well taken care of by Ace. We have no worries when they are on the job!”


15. Rosalind L.

“She was great!!! I will definitely get her to watch my fur babies again…”


16. Emma G.

“Emma took great care of Fox and Bear! She was very on top of giving Bear his post surgery meds. She played nicely with both pups and gave them lots of snuggles. Everything in our home was meticulously cared for as well. Thanks Emma!”


17. Jonathan B.

“Jonathan took care of Joy with detailed attention and provided several daily reports about her exercise, behavior, and even her bodily output. He is super responsible, and I would entrust Joy to his care again.”


18. Molly D.

“Molly was great with my sometimes difficult dogs. She also tended to my livestock(chickens and sheep). She kept in touch with us while we were gone for 10 days. She sent pics of my animals during my vacation. We were far away in Ireland but I was able to relax knowing she had things under control. Would be happy to have her again!!”


19. Mimi W.

“Mimi is a gem - calm - sweet - and very attuned to dogs. Also a great house sitter - The place looked better than when we left it !”
