My experience with Sev was great! She responded to my inquiry promptly and also confirmed her arrival time on the day of the appointment. She has a lot of experience and took great care of my puppies Lizzy and Ollie while I was out. This was the first time the puppies had a sitter, and I came home to happy pups with wagging tails so it was a big success! I received updates with photos while I was away, and Sev was patient and firm with the pups (11 weeks old). Sev even offered to help me put away my groceries and getting the pups to sleep. I’d highly recommend Sev’s service to anyone looking for a sitter.

Emma was fantastic. I have a dog and a cat with VERY different personalities and she went above and beyond with both. She took our dog on long walks and was so great with both of them. She followed every instruction and sent us LOADS of pictures and updates making us feel so comfortable on vacation. Without a doubt using her moving forward!

Kyra was incredible! She was reliable and provided consistent updates/pictures throughout the night. This was our first time using Rover, and Kyra provided a seamless experience. We are looking forward to booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter that will care and even brush your fur baby!!

Paul has been super professional every step of the way. He was prompt in setting up a meet and greet, on time, and communicated well. He also caught my mistake when I initially booked for the wrong days. We received some updates while we were gone, which was appreciated, but most importantly, our girl was clearly well taken care of. She's old and thrives on routine, and she looked like she barely noticed we were gone when we returned. It's really nice to know that she was in great hands. Bonus: I think our apartment was actually cleaner when we returned. 5+ stars.

This was our first time using Rover (or anyone but family to watch our dog) and it was for a last minute vacation. May fit in a meet and greet days before we were leaving and Boots took to her right away. While we were gone May kept us updated both via text and with adorable photos/videos of our pup, which put us at ease. She also took great care of our house.

Pranida is the absolute best and she exceeded all of my expectations!!! She stayed at my apartment and watched my cat for 1 week and sent several daily updates with plenty of pictures. She even gifted me a beautiful drawing of myself and my cat! You can tell that she is a true animal lover and a super sweet and trustworthy human. I arrived home to a clean apartment and super happy animal. I highly recommend her and hope to use her for pet sitting in the future. Pranida is the best!
