It's the best app for finding jobs as a petsitter but I give it a low rating because it takes not only a fee from everything the sitter makes through the app but also a fee from the owners. They are double dipping and don't really offer anything for the amount of money they take.

I've been using Rover for 6 years now. I had issues with the GPS 3 years ago and it got a little better. But now I'm constantly having to uninstall and reinstall because it won't let me add a photo. Then it will freeze. It is very inconvenient for someone who is trying to make the most out of their time during the day. I have to spend 5-10 extra mins at the end of each visit trying to get the app to work and that usually puts me behind schedule.

I'm still unable to send pictures and videos to clients through the app on my google pixe from one of the updatesl. This is very frustrating when trying to adhere to client requests for photos and updates. When I click the camera icon it goes to my gallery but none of my photos show up. This has been an issue for over a few months now and no updates to fix it.
