ALPHARETTA, GA — (Marketwired) — 06/25/13 — , a Symphony Technology Group (STG) company and the leading global provider of screening analytics and identity solutions, today announced that the online community has selected its background screening services.
Seattle-based Rover.com, the digital leader that connects dog owners with approved, reviewed and insured pet sitters, currently has more than 120,000 dog lovers enrolled. Rover.com provides access to sitters in over 4,300 cities and has approximately 1,000 sitter options in each of the top 25 U.S. markets.
Rover.com offers its users many benefits, including both an online and mobile experience, backend support that verifies and reviews sitters, opt-in sitter insurance coverage, and a satisfaction guarantee commitment.

Customer satisfaction is one of the main goals, and overall the Rover.com dog sitting feedback is enormously positive, with more than 94 percent of the reviewed stays receiving five-star ratings.
“At Rover.com we are committed to the most comprehensive dog sitting experience possible,” said Aaron Easterly, CEO of Rover.com. “Part of this process involves ensuring our sitters have been properly screened by an industry leader, which is why we are partnering with First Advantage.

Rover.com maintains the mission of creating a safe, loving home for dogs even when owners are away by offering an alternative to traditional caged boarding facilities, or family, friends and neighbors who are often asked to sit in a pinch.
