I was very happy with my service but one thing I do not like is that you have to pay for you visit way before you even have it.

My Experience with Rover has been extremely good, my pet walker Karin is wonderful, flexible and treats my furry baby just as I would. I will continue to use Rover and highly recommend them.

I was new to using Rover, it was very helpful to have a trusted place to find a pet sitter that has been given background checks and you can read the reviews of others that has use each sitter. The only thing I would change is having a standard welcome email for 1st time users, as I was not sure what I should pack & send with my dog. I understand each sitter will be a little different but having a standard for them to follow would be nice. Like a meet & greet at their house so you know where your pet will be while with them.

Rover is excellent, it provides a good platform for the ones who need sitting for their pets. The only reason I give them 4 stars is because when 2 sitters in a row canceled me last minute, and I had to pay for a lot more for a sitter, they gave me a coupon that only lasted 24 or 48hrs, which I couldn't at that moment, and when I asked for my coupon back when I found my sitter they never responded.

Out of the 2 people I have used on Rover, I am about 1 and 1. First experience not so good, but our latest sitter was great,

This is not just about the recent experience but scheduling in general. It is frustrating when sitters do not keep their schedules up to date as they show availability when there is is not. Also there should be a toggle as to when sitters will be sitting or open to scheduling more than 1 pet at a time.

Hello, we're so sorry for that experience. We do send out regular reminders to sitters to update their availability and their accounts are affected if they do not. We are also currently testing more reminder options! If you haven't already you can message up to ten different sitters a day. That way you can find the perfect match for you and your pet.

I feel that they should not charge the card until the dog walker accepts. I had four request and four charges on my credit card. I am still waiting for two to be released.

I like the site. One thing I would change for an Android is to have a way to save favorite dog walkers.
