“James' professionalism shines through his attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile. His genuine connection with animals was evident when Geronimo, typically shy around strangers, warmed up to James enough to forgo his usual under-the-bed hideout. The daily updates reassured me that Beowulf and Geronimo were receiving ample attention, exercise, and care. James' excellent communication skills kept me informed and at ease throughout my absence. Perhaps the most valuable aspect of James' service was the peace of mind he provided. I could fully enjoy my time away, confident in Beowulf and Geronimo's well-being and my home's security. For anyone in need of a dependable, compassionate drop-in dog sitter, James comes with my highest recommendation. We're already looking forward to booking his services for our next trip!”
“Emma was WONDERFUL! I was very nervous about using Rover while we were away and Emma put us right at ease. She updated us every time she visited and our dog loved her. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Lanese was extremely sweet and patient with our very shy elderly kitty. We got great daily updates with a photo. Although our kitty is shy and often difficult to locate, Lanese was sure to make a connection and help her feel loved while pet sitting. I would definitely recommend this compassionate pet sitter!”
“Completely enjoyed having Maria drop in and help my senior cats Ginger and Stella. House was neat and both cats were calm and satisfied when I got back. Maria also gave some detailed reviews with each visit which was very reassuring. We’ll be happy to have her back next trip!”
“It was our first time trying the rover app and we weren’t sure if someone will be able to look after our pets given the busy Christmas season. Thankfully we found Rebecca! Kuma and Kitty seemed to warm up to her right away. She was communicative. Will definitely book again 👍🏻”
“We booked Miranda for a drop-in, and she was amazing. Punctual, played with our pup, and sent us lots of pictures. We will definitely trust Miranda with our pup again in the future.”
“Naya did an amazingly Job for us watching our boys. Photos were provided and they looked like they had a great 30 minutes of play with Naya. We will definitely use Naya again.”
“Ryan did an excellent job taking care of my cat Casey. I was very happy to receive pictures of Casey where Ryan was interacting with him. This meant that Casey liked him and felt safe around him, which is very important to me. I hope to book Ryan again for Casey's care.”
“Emily has provided pet sitting services for my cat Honey a number of times. Honey is a shy kitty and will go into hiding when anyone other than me enters the home. Emily brought treats with her to gain her trust. I feel comfortable leaving now that I know Honey will not only have her physical needs taken care of but also some affection from a sitter she trusts.”
“Ashley and Olivia have been great with our 2 pups, a lab and husky. I know they are in caring and capable hands with them! They are always so responsive and flexible. Thank you so much!!”
“Chelsea did a fantastic job. We’ve had her drop in to visit our cat while we were away. Our kitty is usually skittish with people, but she let Chelsea pet her and would greet her at the window when during visits. I’d highly recommend Chelsea as a pet sitter.”
“Kim was amazing!!!! My elderly dog who had diabetes, one eye, enlarged heart and cough needs special tlc. My mother in law who stays with my Romeo has Parkinson’s so it’s difficult for her to give the insulin. Kim came every morning and evening to help with my cuddle boy and she was really amazing with his grouchy old man attitude and helped my mother in law over the Easter Holiday. I wouldn’t have been able to enjoy my trip away with my daughter if it weren’t for Kim helping us out. She is wonderful, without a doubt.”

Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my absolute top priorities!
“Allison was great! She visited our two cats daily and was fantastic about administering medication to one cat. I really appreciated the daily updates, especially during the holidays. She also took great care towards their litter boxes. Am extremely happy and so are the cats.”
“Aimee is wonderful! Our cats loved her, and they're usually shy with new people. At the meet & greet they both engaged with her, which made us trust that they were going to be in good hands. We received daily, timely updates, with lots of adorable pictures and a video. Aimee went above and beyond to ensure we felt the care given to our furry children, and the bonus kids outside. Aimee is an animal lover, genuine, very kind and thoughtful. We highly recommend her, your pets are in safe & loving care.”
“Melissa was absolutely *phenomenal* -- and is now highly recommended! She was professional and thorough, and listened to our concerns during our pre-trip meet-and-greet. Not only did that give us incredible peace of mind while we were away from our two cats for a week (which carries a great deal of value in and of itself!), but she went above and beyond overall by leaving some treats and food behind for them, using scented trash bags when cleaning the litter box, and sending wonderful updates that included daily pictures and details of her visits. But most importantly, our kitties seemed to genuinely like her and feel comfortable with her very quickly, which is saying a lot for our shy one in particular. She seems to care quite a bit for animals just like we do, and that brings a great deal of comfort to anxious owners who are far from home. We will definitely book with her again!”
“Nicole took amazing care of our senior pups. I usually worry so much when I have to leave them but felt very comfortable that she would take good care of them. She was on time for all of the drop ins we had scheduled, sent us pictures and took good care of my girls. I will definitely use Nicole again and would recommend her to others.”
“Our puppies love Gina and look forward to her visit's every time! Gina takes care of them as if they were her own! Truly a 5-star pet sitter! Highly recommend for anyone that needs a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.”
Yorktown cat parents share their Rover experiences
Absolutely wonderful sitter! I am always highly anxious about leaving my cats behind when I travel, but James’s very thorough report cards and photos made me significantly less anxious about them. The cats loved him and I returned home to 2 happy kitties ☺️
This was my first time w Maria & I couldn’t have asked for more. She was kind, reliable, & a “cat-whisperer!” My kitty is a scaredy cat, but even at the meet & greet, Maria spotted her & wRen allowed her to approach & even took a treat from her. Maria sent me a short video of wRen purring loudly & allowing her to pet her during her visit. I’d be thrilled to have her back!
We have used Elizabeth to care for our two cats and fish for multiple trips and will continue to request her services in the future. We are never worried while away as Elizabeth is great at communicating issues/questions and is careful with our pets care. Anyone browsing looking for a trusted pet sitter I recommend that you can count on Elizabeth! Thanks again!
This was our first time using Rover, and Allison made it a great experience. She even let us know about and applied the first-time user discount, which we really appreciated. She made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She went above and beyond by playing with them, brushing them, and even giving them fresh water from the sink. She also took great care of our frog. Allison sent pictures and updates every visit, which meant a lot to us. We highly recommend her and hope to hire her again!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sabrina. As soon as we met, I knew she would be a wonderful cat sitter. She took care of my babies like they were her own, and they warmed up to her right away. She is extremely professional, but very sweet and personable also. I recommend her highly and of course I will have her watch my cats whenever I have to go out of town. The peace of mind I feel with her is awesome. Thank you, Sabrina.
BreeAnna took exceptional care of our cat and truly went above and beyond. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We received regular, thoughtful updates that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our cat was happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which made it so easy to relax knowing she was in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust BreeAnna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.
