What's the difference between a pet review and pet notes?

A pet review allows you to share feedback with Rover Support about a specific pet you cared for during a stay. This allows us to reference a pet's history to ensure a safe pet sitting experience on Rover for sitters and their owner's pets.

Pet reviews are not viewable to you, owners, or other sitters. Once you submit a pet review, you will only be able to see the star rating. The written portion will only be visible to the Rover Support team.

Pet notes are a great resource for sitters who want to keep a record of information about a pet that they can reference later. Pet notes are only available to you, and you can reference them at any time from the pet's profile.
