We have used Rachelle a few times now. Twice for day trips and most recently for several days and over nights. My animals bonded with her instantly. Even my cat that’s can not be bothered to like anyone loves Rochelle. I never worry about them when she’s with them. She seems to really care about the animals. Beyond that she leaves my apartment as she found it no matter how much I tell her to make herself at home. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future!

Timothy was the perfect sitter for my boy Marvin! You know they had a great week together when your dog is crying and looking all over the house for Timothy when he left! I knew he was in good hands based on the pictures and updates. Timothy also was the perfect house guest, looking after all my things, following my instructions, and ensuring everything was clean and orderly upon my return! So very pleased, he is now my definite go-to caretaker!

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.

Mia is so great. She has previously taken care of our cat and is fantastic so we used her again. She sends daily updates with photos and videos, our cat LOVES her, and she is super attentive to every detail (including leaving our home in great condition). Absolutely recommend her!

Navya is incredible. We've had her stay at our house a couple times already. She does an incredible job of not only taking care of our dogs but also our home. She leaves it in better condition than when we left! She updates you regularly on what is going on. For example , a snowstorm hit while she was sitting and she shoveled our front and back yards. We couldn't recommend her more highly!

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!

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!

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.

Like our last review said we absolutely adore Michael, and HAD to book again. Not only an upstanding guy, when we didn’t know if we could make it home the night when Michael’s house sitting was supposed to end, he immediately agreed to help us out and check on our pets until we could get back. Michael was generous with his time (sending us lots of updates and photos throughout the day), his love (so much playtime and so many treats to our pets), and was beyond respectful of our home (we walked into a fresh apartment - and we’ve definitely never experienced that before with past house sitters). Cannot recommend more, put your pets with the best ♥️
