Rachelle did a great job watching my dog at my home for the weekend. She handled some walk difficulties my pup gave her very well, and I came home to a well cared for dog. Will use again.

Timo house sat for our dog Lenny for 4 nights and our experience couldn’t have been better! Lenny is not the easiest dog (he’s 130 lbs and stubborn as hell) but Timo was up for the challenge! He was easy to communicate with before the reservation and during our trip, and took great care of our dog and our home while we were away. We would highly recommend him to anyone!

Came home to a very happy pup. She had to leave a few minutes early (preplanned), but I came home to my pup chilling and listening to princess and the frog. She seemed to enjoy it!

Erica was great! Our dog immediately warmed up to her so we knew he would be in great hands. Erica was very responsive over the app, sent pics and updates, and was a super respectful houseguest as well.

Alona watched over my two dogs while I was away on a work trip, and she was great with communicating/sending updates with cute pictures. She was also flexible and understanding when timing needed to change a little, and asked great questions during our neet and greet. Definitely would recommend her and will be asking her to stay with them again!

Billie made my first experience with Rover a seamless and stressless experience. From the meet and greet to the way she continuously updated me via messages, to the way she left the apartment I never worried and my dog Maybe had a great time with her! Will be using her in the future!

Mia is the best dog sitter Mia and Archie could have hoped for! She stayed in our home with the dogs for 10 days and followed all of our instructions exactly, going above and beyond by providing updates (and adorable photos/videos!) multiple times each day — which made it easier to relax on vacation knowing the dogs were in such good hands. It became clear that Mia is not only responsible and trustworthy, but a true dog lover (and they loved her back!). She also offered to water our plants, brought in our packages for us, and left the house near and tidy for our return. We will definitely plan to reach out to Mia to care for our dogs again next time we travel. :)

Allison was a great house and pet sitter. She provided regular updates and when I got home my apartment was clean and my doggy was happy. My dog is reactive which makes me nervous when I leave her with sitters but Allison was reassuring and I was glad Mae had no issues.

Navya did a fantastic job watching our two fur babies! One of our dogs is older and paralyzed from the waist down. She was wonderful taking care of him and expressing his bladder. We came back to a clean home and two very well cared for dogs. We will definitely ask Navya to watch our dogs again.

I could not recommend Ann G. more! She watched my 8 month old puppy for 4 days and did an amazing job! She took my pup on many long walks and texted me updates/pics all the time. She was very communicative, gave my pup plenty of socialization, and was in tune with his needs. If you need someone to watch you dog, you definitely want Ann G.

Casey was wonderful! We know our dog is in good hands with her. Our dog got an ear infection the day we were supposed to leave for our trip and Casey was super helpful with administering the medication and keeping us updated.

Leslie was wonderful! She was so attentive and doting on Buster. She was very transparent with her arrival and departure times and sent us photos and videos throughout the weekend updating us on Buster and how he was doing! We were very hesitant to leave Buster, but after a few hours with Lelise and her attentiveness, I became more comfortable with the process. She is truly the best and we cannot wait to use her again! Buster let her 'into his pack' which is hard to do, but it just goes to show what a great and trusting person she really is!

Lana was available for a last minute booking for my two dogs & was fantastic! She was so kind & communicative, and my dogs loved her. One dog has separation anxiety and can be pretty energetic, and Lana was comfortable handling him. She was very considerate & I knew the pups were in great hands. Would definitely book with Lana again! Thank you!

Elmer was amazing to work with! He watched our pup for 8 nights at our house and provided daily updates and photos. He is a great communicator and it was so nice to be able to relax on vacation knowing our dog was in good hands. Our house was left spotless. Will absolutely use Elmer’s services again.

We highly recommend Joseph!! He was great! Mimi, our 9 year old rescue, was comfortable with him from the initial meet and greet. Joe is very personable, capable, punctual, thorough, and dependable. We received regular updates of Mimi and returned to a happy dog in a neat and tidy condo!
