“I couldn't be happier with my experience using Rover! My sitter was incredibly kind, professional, and provided regular updates with pictures of my pup. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. When I returned, she was happy, well-cared for, and had clearly been treated like family. I highly recommend Rover to anyone looking for trustworthy and loving pet care!"”
