“Christine is the best! We were gone for 6 days, and she handled all of our dogs quirky and lovable obsessions. Also we had an unusual home and yard issue which she helped us with. House was just like we left it but, “a much happier place when we returned. A lot of dog loving going on. Jinx , our 16 yr old border collie told us she will miss her until the next time.”
“It was great to have Paula stay with my 2 kitty cats! Paula was responsible, responsive and just a really nice person. Kept me informed, sent me photos every day, and left the house clean and the cats chill and happy! Highly recommend Paula!”


“Melissa was amazing! Not only did my dog, Ellie, have a blast with her, but she was happy and healthy when I returned. she was also very great with her communication with me and left my house in great shape.”

“Mo was really great with my dog, Bandit. Bandit is a Pomeranian with a lot of “agency” and Mo was a great person to have here for a dog that can be difficult at times. I know Bandit loved Mo as when I changed the sheets on his bed, Bandit immediately jumped on the sheets as he missed Mo!”


“Great experience with Rasika and our pups :) she was so attentive and great with communication! Even went to the pet store to get something for one of our dogs upset tummies. Our home was left clean and our 2 doggie girls were happy and well taken care of while we were away. 10/10 recommend!”

“Gustavo took such great care of our two (very needy) dogs!! One of our dogs is a lot to handle and he’s very patient and sweet with him. He sent pictures regularly which we loved. Highly recommend!!”

About: I’m Jacob, a full time nurse, looking for a side hustle to help pay off my student loans :) If you trust me with your pet(s) I will make them my top priority. I will shower them with attention, and take lots of pictures to update you with about our day. I work 3 days a week. I have plenty of free time during the week for your pet’s needs. It would be such a fulfilling past time for me to care for your animals. I live alone in a quiet apartment with no other animals. There’s a good amount of space. Quick and easy walk to the trail around lady bird lake.

“I can’t recommend Marissa enough! She took incredible care of my two cats and my home while I was away. She sent thoughtful updates and adorable photos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing my girls were happy, loved, and well cared for. When I got home, my house was spotless and exactly as I had left it. It’s clear she is dependable, respectful, and truly cares about both the pets and the homes she’s entrusted with!”

“Jena did a wonderful job taking care of my two goldens and two kitties while I was gone for a week. I had total peace of mind while enjoying my vacation knowing everybody was happy in their own house. Jena also kept my plants watered and saved a package of mine from the mailbox during this 105 degree weather. Will definitely seek her out again when I want to leave town!”

“Amelia did a great job at watching our puppy Winnie and kept us up to date and sent photos! She left our place just as we left it and was very friendly. Would recommend booking with her :)”

“Caroline was wonderful! She stayed at our house with our cats, and we felt so comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. Our kitties can be a little shy, but they absolutely loved her. She sent lots of sweet updates and photos, watered our plants, and left the house spotless. She was communicative, thoughtful, and went above and beyond. We’d be so happy to have her stay with them again!”

“Melissa was GREAT! She was so helpful, friendly, and always responsive. She sent us pictures of our pets while we were away. (Which helped because we missed them so much!) We came home to a happy household. She was so good, we have booked her for our next trip! Thanks Melissa!”

“John was amazing! I traveled with my sister to Austin and needed a sitter for Knox while we enjoyed the pol. He was very friendly and punctual. Wish he lived in Nashville so we could book him more. 😊”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Zilker
Amazing experience with Luke! Our dogs are pretty spoiled and we were hesitant to try Rover since we usually leave them with family. But Luke was so accommodating, even with our shy dog who takes time to warm up to new people. He was communicative throughout, sent us great photo updates, and was just the sweetest with them. Highly recommend him!

Gavin stayed at our house for 10 days and took wonderful care of our two dogs and cat. Each requires daily meds, and he administered them flawlessly. They were happy, healthy, and relaxed when we returned. He was proactive and communicative, and it felt great to know our animals were in good hands while we were gone. He also handled an unexpected exterminator visit, offered to stay an extra night when we thought a flight delay would keep us from getting home, and left the house tidy. Would highly recommend booking with Gavin!

Jacob was excellent with our puppy Remi. My husband and I haven’t had a night out in 6 months bc he cries whenever he is left alone and we just don’t have the heart. So thankful it all went over wonderfully with Jacob bc now we will have more nights out knowing Remi is happy and being treated so well and played with!

I wish I could give Caroline more stars!! She’s amazing!! Communicative, our pups love her, and she’s a great house guest. We’re so grateful she could watch our two Goldens at such short notice. We really feel like we lucked out. Do not hesitate to book with her. She’s amazing!!!

Ana took great care of Kai while I was away. Kai is a German Shepard who can be quite anxious around new people but Ana was nice enough to come meet her a couple of times before I left which made her (and me) way more comfortable during her stay. She sent me tons of updates throughout the week which was very reassuring.

Lauren was amazing! She took great care of my dog and my cat while staying at my house. Lauren sent lots of adorable picture updates, and she was incredibly accommodating when our plans changed at the last minute. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

We are so grateful for Heather!! We have older dogs and we really needed someone who could just chill with them while we were out of town. She was so great with them, so communicative to us, and we could just tell by their demeanor when we got home that they were never stressed and that’s such a good feeling to have 🥹

Sara took wonderful care of our dog, Alli, and our cat, Luna, while we were away for four days. She was reliable, communicative, and gave us complete peace of mind. She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures, which made it so much easier to enjoy our trip knowing they were doing well. When we got home, both Alli and Luna were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s obvious Sara genuinely loves animals and treated our pets like they were her own. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!

We feel so lucky to have found Bailey on rover! Took incredible care of our boy and the most updates and photos we have ever gotten with a sitter, which made us feel so reassured as pet parents he was having a good time and was so loved while we were away. Would book again in a heartbeat!
