“Shannon was excellent. She came to my house and cared for Marlee while we were away for 4 days. She gave antibiotics that were needed. She was flexible when I had some problems with my return flight. Interactions were prompt. I would definitely recommend her for your house sitting needs without reservations.”

4. Cassandra B.
“This was the first time we used Rover. Cassie was excellent and made us feel that she was the right person to take care of our babies. Although they are sweet, they are a handful sometimes when they have to be taken out for walks. The spaniel in them tends to dominate the walks. She was so sweet and sent pictures and videos and made us feel at ease.”

10. Megan O.
“Megan has been an incredible caregiver for our pets over the years, and I can’t recommend her enough as a pet sitter. She has lovingly looked after our dogs—Sandy, Lady, Charlie, and Bean—always ensuring they’re well-fed, exercised, and comfortable. Her dedication doesn’t stop there; Megan has also cared for my other daughter’s cats and my brother-in-law’s cats, showing the same level of compassion and responsibility. Megan’s natural ability to connect with animals is truly impressive. She’s attentive, reliable, and always goes the extra mile to make sure each pet feels loved and happy. Whether it’s a walk, a play session, or just some quality cuddle time, Megan’s calm demeanor and genuine love for animals make her the perfect pet sitter. Anyone who chooses her to care for their pets can rest assured that they will be in great hands.”

I have been pet-sitting for the past year and have absolutely loved it! I love working with animals its a way to relieve my stress from school when I'm not in class. I have one dog right now named Sparky he is a terrier mix and I have a cat named Nimbus who is a Persian & exotic shorthaired mix.

“Kim is a great pet caregiver and will give any animal all the love and care it needs! She owns an animal rescue and takes great care of her personal pets too. I would definitely trust her to watch my animals and she has done so many times.”
17. Jahlani S.
“When my kids and I brought home our rescue dog last December, we had NO IDEA she was going to be so rambunctious! Having just had a baby, our sweet Ginger Gregory was a little more for me to handle at the time than I had imagined. Jahlani found out I was thinking of rehoming her and just showed up for us. She brought toys, doggie shampoo and conditioner, a brush and she washed Ginger, played with her, and took her for long walks to help me out. She didn't have to bring anything, but I was so exhausted and overwhelmed with a baby that I couldn't think straight! Let me tell you, my dog AND my kids love her. Lol. She is truly a gem.”
18. Mae S.
“Mae is awesome!! We were scrambling to find someone to watch our two 1yr old cats a few days before leaving and Mae was kind enough to help us out last minute. I can tell Mae truly understands the nature of cats and all the quirks that come with them. She really does a great job of catering to their unique personalities. My one cat is usually extremely shy with strangers but seemed to warm up to Mae quicker than with most people. Mae left everything very clean and sent a bunch of cute photos of the kitties. She even printed some physical copies of the photos for us! Thanks for everything!! <3”
19. Justin M.
“Justin has been around both my dogs for several years now and they both absolutely adore him. They always excitedly greet him at the door when he gets there and love hanging out with him. He pops in and takes them for walks and they are always exhausted and happy at the end of them. He has watched my old family dog Lily for weeks at a time while my family and I were traveling and we always knew she was being well taken care of. I would trust my pets with Justin anytime!”
20. Andre S.
“Andre is so sweet and loving with my precious baby.. He really loves all animals and takes great care of them.. I would trust him anytime!”
