Kyleigh did such a wonderful job watching the dogs! She left our house clean, even stripping the bed for easy washing. We came home and it was felt like we had just left! We’re so grateful for her taking care of our babies!

Saskia was absolutely phenomenal caring for our dog and two cats while we were away. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared for our pets and treated them as if they were her own. When we returned home, our pets were happy, well cared for, and our house was left in pristine condition. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Saskia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We will definitely be using her again!

Courtney is wonderful! My cat didn't miss me because Courtney took such good care of her. This meant a lot to me because it was one of the first times I left my cat in someone else's care. I would not hesitate to use Courtney again! Courtney is a caring, conscientious animal sitter. She clearly loves animals. She also left everything spotless! I highly recommend Courtney if you want an animal sitter you can count on to follow your instructions and is dependable, diligent and caring.

I had to hire Peter at the last minute after my other sitter wasn't a good fit. All I can say is everything happens for a reason. Peter was so attentive and caring to my senior pup, it was night and day from my previous experiences. Peter checked in and followed all my care instructions and went above my expectations. I will definitely use his services again!

Two words to describe Steph dependable and kind. I booked with Steph about 6 months in advance, she mentioned having experience with animals that have special physical and social needs. She really proved it. She took Max out as often as I asked, every time. She also went a step further and took my energy filled guy on a few walks. She sent me videos/pics as often as we discussed from the beginning. He even played with his toys with her, he never does that!! I also wanted someone who would be home with Max my entire trip away, she kept him company the entire time. Steph was accommodating to the fullest with our schedule and needs. The best part, I arrived home to find Max so calm and joyous (apart from the norm). You could tell his soul was happy and he was the most well taken care of he has ever been!

Regan was an absolute blessing. My dog loved being able to spend time with her, and was really excited that she brought her dog Finn as well so he could have a buddy. She kept me up to date during their stay together, provided me plenty of pictures and made sure my dog was well taken care of while I was out of town. He especially loved the walks she would take him on with Finn and the extra attention he got from both of them.

About: I have been around dogs and cats all my life. Ever since I was young I helped care for our family dogs and cats. Right now, my husband and I own a Catahoula/Pit Mix, Aussiedoodle, and Siamese cat. I have always been a big animal lover and can never seem to get enough of them. I would love to spend time with your fur baby and give them all the TLC in the world. So let's get started- I’d love to help you and care for your furry friend. I am currently a stay at home fur mom so I have all the time in the world. I keep my fur babies company all day long. At your home, I can play with your pups in the yard, with their favorite toys, in your home, or take them for a walk!

About: I have always had pets since I was little. It first started with a horse named Star, then my family went to something smaller…a dog! I have had a miniature schnauzer who was sweet as gold to a cockapoo (cocker spaniel and poodle mixed) who was full of energy. I love dogs so much. I have bathed them, helped them be trained (crate and bathroom), and given them lots of love! It’s summer!!! So as a teacher I am free most of the week/weekends. I can basically do anything that doesn’t get in the way of my sons camps. At my apartment, we have lots of areas to walk. There is a dog park down the road as well. At your home I would follow what you would want me to do Iike walks, baths, treats, picking up after them, and so forth. I always clean up after myself and am OCD about cleanliness.

Honestly if I could give Mariana 10 ⭐️ I would. She is absolutely amazing!! She loves our girl Jo and spoils her with all the love and kindness she has. She keeps us updated on her day and sends pics. It’s also so wonderful that she stays at our home over night/days so our girl can stay in her own place. I highly recommend her to stay with your furbabies she’s the best!!

The cats and I are new to Rover and Allison helped guide me. Maggie and Molly were shy to start with but Allison was very relaxed and joined them right in their play area. She certainly put me more at ease leaving them in capable hands for several hours.

Laura did an exceptional job of handling a very tragic situation. Our beloved dog, Lulu had an emergency situation and had to be rushed to the vet. Lulu was unresponsive and Laura was unable lift her. She quickly ran to the nearest neighbor and got help to put Lulu into her car to transport her to the vet. Her communication with us before during, and after this traumatic event was exceptional. We highly recommend her services to anyone needing a pet sitter.

Mollie was a GREAT caretaker for our 140 lb. Scout and 14-year-old Sierra. She has a great calm presence and we felt very confident leaving our two dogs with her for 7 days. Our big dog never made her nervous and Sierra came out of her shell with Mollie. Why didn't we ever do this before. Mollie took good care of them and all their little quirks, as well as gave them medicine for their old age issues. I'm sure she gave them lots of TLC, too, if the pictures she sent us were any evidence. Thanks, Mollie, for all you did for them, as well as for us, to take good care of them!

I would book Kamryn to watch Diggs a thousand times over! She took extra time and care to make sure he was comfortable with her (he’s scan be pretty anxious with new people). She updated me several times a day about potties and feedings and took her time to hang out and play with him. I felt so comfortable leaving Diggs in her care!! I cannot thank her enough for the extra steps and reassurance she provided me that he was in the best care while I way away!!
