We had a terrible experience with Rover and a sitter. The sitter called said they would be late, we said that would be fine. two days later the sitter contacted us saying we didn't pay him we replied that Rover took the funds. The sitter than threatened us saying he was coming with the police to collect his money etc. etc. We contacted Rover who said the the sitter had refused the funds not our fault. We had Rover put on another visit so the sitter could get paid he told a bunch of lies saying we had cameras in the house (we did not but now I am wondering how my dogs were treated) Put in a formal complaint and was told that we needed to read the Rover Community Guidelines and made us feel that this was our fault. Rover of course denied any and all liability with the claim and blamed us. Just remember these people are strangers not even employees of Rover and Rover just collects money for the service, if anything goes wrong they will not care and blame you. Furthermore though they say they do background checks I doubt it's very thorough as I found all kinds of court records for this individual after the fact.

I’m old, and the app was doable… not totally easy, but doable. What was super was that our house sitter was really helpful with teaching us how to make it work.

Rover made it so easy to locate a pet-sitter near me. And the one I selected , the couple took excellent care of my beloved dog. I cannot praise Rover and my pet-sitters (Carl & Nancy [32828]) enough.

The methods of communication are quite efficient. The attentiveness of the dog sitter was absolutely wonderful. The care given to my dog helped me to truly enjoy my vacation.

Carolyn did a great job. Thank you!

What a great App to connect pets with perfect sitters and tons of options!

Such a relief to have competent help for my pup during a busy, stressful time. Priceless.

I used to cat sit through Cat in a flat but cat sitters have been completely screwed over by the merge with Rover. No notice board and it shows sitters miles away, because the algorithm favours only the most established Rover sitters instead of locals. Cat in a flat has been has been ruined and Rover does nothing for us.
