The sitters and app are fine... the fees are too high.

The last minute booking
Debra
It was very easy to go on the site and to find sitters that were available for the time that I needed somebody. My sitter was absolutely fabulous and my dog cried when she left for 20 minutes.
STACEY W.
I managed to find a good sitter but it took some doing. You can’t save profiles for future reference. Some of the sitters put untrue information on their profiles like experience administration of insulin injections in dogs - something that can be life or death for a dog. It is nice to see schedules and to communicate and pay through the app. The sitter could send updates and photos to me. There needs to be more transparency about processing fees that increase the cost of posted sitter fees. But I could add a review and tip. I will use the app again in the future.

Hi Stacey, we’re glad you found a sitter and appreciate the communication and updates throughout your booking. Sitters can be favorited for future reference from the Rover website, and we appreciate your feedback about making this easier in the app. If you notice inaccurate information on a sitter’s profile, especially regarding their care experience, please contact our Trust & Safety Team at (888) 727-1140 so we can look into it. We also appreciate your feedback about fee transparency and will keep it in mind as we continue working to improve the Rover experience. -Brittney

Excellent sitter. Surprised at how few of responses. Thought it a bit pricey. But probably will use again.
Heather
Rover made it really easy to find sitters! The only reason it gets four stars is you can't really put in any unusual directions or lump directions for all your animals together. All my cats have exactly the same directions, so having a box just to put in "repeat directions for all animals" would be really nice.

We were able to find a terrific caregiver. Our first selection cancelled and we found another who was quite wonderful.
