David has been awesome with Roxi! He is great at communicating if he's running late, when he is grouping her together with other dogs, and clarifying if something looks odd in the schedule. He has been really accommodating with last minute changes, and making sure he prioritizes her safety.

Tyler was awesome with my anxious boxer, Thurston. I’m also a walker on Rover so I appreciate a person who takes diligent care of a pet when I see one. Tyler was communicative with me and compassionate with my sweet boy.

Nicolas took great care of my skittish cat! I’m very happy to have had Nicolas look after my cat and give me peace of mind while I’m away. Will definitely be re-booking in the future!

Allison took excellent care of our dog during her drop-in visits with thorough updates and lots of photos to prove it! It was our first time needing a professional to look after our dog and Allison set the bar high, would be glad to have her TLC again.

Tom was great! He was very receptive and kept us in the loop with how our dog was doing during his visit. Because she is very timid with new people, he was willing to do a meet and greet with her beforehand. Tom was also very flexible with some last minute schedule changes. Thank you so much Tom!

Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of my fur babies! I’d never left them alone for this long and it was so nice to get your updates and pics daily. I knew you’d be perfect when you came for the walk through and took notes, it shows great dedication and accountability. The fur babies loved having your visits, and not just because you were giving them food. ?

Robbie was great to have as a sitter for our two cats! She’s friendly to talk to and the cats were big fans of her. She is very communicative and accommodating. Her check-ins were timely and she always sent many pictures. Will definitely book her again!

Riley loves dogs. Plain and simple. Spending time away from her Michigan home to complete her graduate studies, means she will be missing her own three dogs. This makes Rover perfect for her, but also for you and your pet. ❤️

The best Rover pet sitting experience I've had to date! My partner and I were out of town for two weeks over the holidays and were so fortunate that Abigail was available to check in on our cat, Matilda, while we were away. Abigail has a genuine love for the pets she cares for, demonstrated by the thoughtful and comprehensive photo/text updates she shared during each visit. Matilda isn't always the friendliest toward strangers, so we were grateful for Abigail's gentle approach in allowing Matilda to come to her and patiently build a trusting bond. It was tough to be gone and leave our baby for so long, but Abigail offered us peace of mind with the loving care she provided Matilda. We returned home yesterday to a happy and well-cared-for kitty—a testament to Abigail's reliable and affectionate service. Can't recommend Abigail more highly and we look forward to entrusting her with Matilda's care in the future!

Mina was wonderfully attentive for our cat Buzz. I can't stress enough how her attention to detail and clear communication helped calm the nerves of this helicopter cat dad. She took the time to try different ways to connect with Buzz and took tons of fun photos of their time together. It was clear he was in great hands while in her care. I actually think he was a bit disappointed when we came home instead of her! ? We will be requesting Mina every time we need someone to check in on Buzz in the future. Thank you!

Rojan is my go-to sitter any time I need to travel and make sure my kitty gets taken care of! She posts detailed notes, tons of pictures, and is trustworthy and responsive. She helped line up another sitter during the stay when she couldn’t cover a few days and I couldn’t be happier knowing Freya was cared for while I was gone.

Catherine is a patient, attentive, and diligent person. These attributes have allowed her to be an exceptional caretaker to her own French bulldog and pets of friends and family members. With her own frenchie, she has been patient during the crate, pee pad, and walking learning process, attentive to dog behavior, and diligent with rewarding good behavior and redirecting unhealthy ones to foster positive and loving environment. Additionally, she is caring with pets and respects and honors the standards set by owners.

Evie was amazing while watching our cat for the week. We were out of town for 6 days, which Evie came twice a day. She was always punctual, very caring towards our cat, and provided constant updates during her visits. I would definitely recommend Evie to anyone who needs their pet watched!

Over the years R.L. has taken great care of our dog Fredo, including dog walking and keeping him overnight while we traveled. Fredo is always excited to see him when he takes him for walks, and it is not anxious at all to stay with him. Above all, R.L. is trustworthy, caring and dependable. It is so nice to get away and have the peace of mind of knowing your pet is being well cared for. I can't recommend R.L enough for all your pet sitting/dog walking needs.
