We could not have asked for more! Chris was great in every way: the dogs were happy, the house was perfect. He went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly for all of us. Can't wait to have him back soon!

Best house sitter we have ever had! Samantha goes above and beyond; she communicates via text and pics everyday, takes care of our home, and cleans up after herself. It’s great coming home to a clean house and happy pet. Thanks Samantha!

Haley is just the best. She truly understands both my dog’s needs and mine! She knows the breed well, has taken the time to learn his quirks, and manages him with love and care. Her communication is always clear and effective – she keeps me updated on how my dog is doing and lets me know about any issues on at the house. I always feel at ease knowing Haley is taking care of him.

Aiden did an amazing job with watching our dog and house while we were away for 5 nights. Dog was well cared for, happy and comfortable while we were away. Aiden was very communicative and we returned home to our house as clean as we left it. Thank you, Aiden!

Aston was great! He handled out three dogs and one cat for a 7 day vacation. He was very good with them and they were quite relaxed when we returned home. We will definitely use him again.

Jessica was really great with our boys! They’re new to us and we didn’t know what to expect with a sitter but needed to attend a memorial today with short notice and reached out to Jessica just a couple days ago. Not only did she make herself available on short notice, she also made sure she could come by earlier today with her kids to see how everyone would interact. This was really helpful to familiarize everyone in advance and a big help to us to see how well our boys got along with “human puppies” - worked out so great! While we were gone, Jessica sent a bunch of FANTASTIC pics to keep us informed. Being new to our dogs and this being the first time we hired at home sitters for them, I think Jessica and I learned a few things simple we can do to clarify communication with each other in advance which went really well considering we had so little time to prepare! Would definitely welcome Jessica and the kids back again - our boys really loved them and enjoyed their time together - and they were happily exhausted when we got home still sleeping some 4 hours later! Thanks Jessica!

Shea is a very nice respectful and polite girl. Her communication is always timely. She was punctual with her arrival time, allowing us to leave a few minutes earlier than planned for our trip. She wasn’t afraid to send a text later in the evening when our dog was having trouble settling down. She sent a couple updates and photos during her stay with our dog and everything went well. We will definitely keep her in the rotation for when we need care for our dog!

I was terrified to use a service. I have two rescue dogs who have had a tough life and don’t always listen PLUS three sphinx cats who are high energy, require a lot of attention, and are my entire life. Brooke and Mike came over for our initial meet and greet and ended up spending nearly two hours getting to know me and my animals. They were patient, empathetic, and answered all of my questions MORE than once. When it was time for my trip, Brooke was super communicative- she checked in to make sure my work trip was going well, she sent regular updates and pictures, and she was just generally so available and nice and supportive. I never in a million years would’ve thought “everything is gonna be fine”. It was more than fine. Brooke stayed over two nights while I was traveling for work and the house is EXACTLY in the same state I left it. I mean she even did her own dishes. My own kid doesn’t even do that when she house sits. I know this is long and rambly but honestly I was terrified going into this. “I’m gonna let a stranger stay over at my house??” I can’t stress enough how relieved and grateful I am to Brooke (and Mike). My animals acted like I hadn’t even been gone (and that’s saying a lot considering how clingy they are and how they typically act like I died and suddenly appeared back in their lives by some witchcraft if I’m gone for an afternoon). Brooke cared for my pets and my house like it was her own. I can’t wait to explore going on a real life vacation now that I’m not terrified of taking this step anymore. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. For anyone still doubting or questioning things (or for anyone new to the app in general), I’m more than happy to be a reference! Brooke and Mike - welcome to our weird furry (and furies) family!!!

About: Hi! I’m Maya, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Family and friends regularly rely on me to feed, walk, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away, and I truly enjoy creating a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for every animal in my care. currently work full-time Monday–Friday from 7:30 AM–4:30 PM, but I’m available during weekday evenings and weekends. I’m flexible whenever possible and happy to coordinate schedules to best fit you and your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I always prioritize patience, attentiveness, safety, and communication. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. All furry friends are welcome! 🐾

Annie was great with our two little pups and our senior cat. She was very tentative to their schedules and routines. Follows directions and requests as well. She was the first (of a few) that our older dog actually warmed up to, immediately. Communication was great, with updates constantly. We'll definitely have her house/pet sit again!

This was our first time using Rover and we could not be more pleased with the way Carol took such beautiful care of our dogs and home. She was attentive, patient, playful and thoughtful with our pets. She was also super professional, prompt and thorough in all communications, including regular updates on the status of our two Airdale terriers, including sending numerous sweet photos, daily. Bottom line, we have been completely impressed with and reassured by the way Carol watched after our dogs and home while we were away. While we have been happy using a kennel in the past, this feels like a much better, more reliable way to ensure our pups are as well cared for, individually, as we would like. Thank you, Carol!

About: I’ve had a dog and 3 cats growing up. I am constantly around dogs and they all love me. My friends and neighbors have trusted to watch their animals when they are away. I just graduated college and looking for a fun job for over the summer! I have lots of free time so I am available to help with your animals whenever you need! I have one cat at home but he’s not the biggest fan of new animals. I love playing with animals and making sure they use most of the energy.

About: I’ve taken care of many pets over the years. I’ve done both drop-ins for walking and feeding, as well as house sitting to provide enrichment and company. Every animal that I’ve met has liked me, even if their owner says they’re normally shy around new people, which I take as the highest compliment. I’ve administered medication, and the safety and wellbeing of the pet is my top priority. I respect any boundaries that the animal displays, whether it’s distance or petting, and I make sure to ask for any special routines or needs up front to make sure I can take care of them to the best of my ability. I work full time during the week while also being a full time online student, but I’m available to stop in before 8:45am and after 6:30pm. Weekends are usually open for drop-ins or house sitting. If there are any baby gates or areas restricted to the pets, I make sure to keep an eye on that. I wipe paws after being outside to keep the house clean, and if your pet needs company while they eat, I’ll absolutely sit with them.

Shea took wonderful care of our dogs and our home! We received daily pictures of our dogs and we knew they were in good hands. It was much less stressful for our pets to be at home instead of in a kennel. We would definitely use Shea again!
