Lydia
Awful experience with pet sitter where they didn't clean the cat's litter box once and allowed the dog to go 60 hours without a bathroom break. All Rover can offer is an apology. No action and no refund. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Alexandra did an excellent job and she deserves 5 stars. My only know on Rover,com is that I found the platform (website) less intuitive than I would have liked.

Anna
Our pet sitter, Deborah, was great. We would definitely ask her to stay with Ethan again. I do, however, find the Rover website difficult to use.

GG
Good app to use- was bummed to find out they take a 20% fee from the sitter. That’s waaay too much.
Response from Rover.com | Pet SittingOct 24, 2025
Hi GG, thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand your concerns about service fees; however, these fees help support so many things that make Rover great, such as 24/7 customer service, trust and safety coverage, platform benefits such as payment processing, ongoing promotion of sitters, and the Rover Guarantee for peace of mind. We appreciate your input, and our Support team is available anytime at 888-453-7889 if you’d like to discuss further. -Brittney
Alison
I am recovering from foot so unable to walk my dog. Family helps but not for any long period of time. So grateful for the two walkers I found on Rover when recommended by my friend Lisa who is a caretaker for Rover. Scheduling has been my only issue with the platform, and not so easy to fix without the walkers assisting. Paying is easy and I love the reports on how things went after. The pictures are a cute addition. (I have called and used the messaging support available 24/7, and for some reason there was no “modify” option for one instance. They had to reset the whole reoccurring. So I now do “one-time” bookings weekly.)

Hi Alison, thank you for your feedback! We’re so glad you’ve found great walkers and that Rover has been helpful during your recovery. If scheduling has been tricky, our 24/7 Support team can walk you through booking modifications anytime at 888-453-7889. -Brittney

We met Lacie through Rover and she is absolutely tremendous. She provides excellent care of our special needs 17 Y/O Havenese. If something happens, she knows exactly what to do, keeps us updated and sends videos and photos daily!! We trust her completely and never worry.

Extremely disappointed, after setting up my profile and putting my card details in, I was told I would not be charged at this point, to find my account has been debited £19 putting me in an unauthorised overdraft. I have tried to resolve this with the team who said its a pending payment and would be returned in up to 3 days and no compensation can be given for the additional bank fees. A company I have absolutely no trust in.
Response from Rover.com | Pet SittingOct 24, 2025
Hi Robert, we’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how concerning this must feel. The £19 you’re seeing is an authorization hold, not a completed charge, and it will clear automatically within a few business days. If you’d like our team to double-check the status for you, our Support team is available 24/7 at 888-453-7889. -Brittney
