“Jennifer and co were absolutely fantastic! I had a last minute request because my cat injured himself and needed extra care. Jennifer stayed with him, gave meds, and updated me with any changes. My other cat was also well loved and taken care of! I received many video and photo updates every night and I knew my babies were in good hands!!! I will definitely book again!”
“Lauryn stayed at our house for ten days and took fantastic care of our two older dogs with multiple medication needs. She sent great photos that made us confident the dogs were well loved and the house looked amazing when we got back.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Alex took such great care of our dogs while we were out of town—he kept us updated with pictures throughout the week. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We also came home to a spotless house, which was such a gift after traveling. Highly recommend Alex!!”
“She did great and kept me updated. Didn't leave the place a mess and my boy seemed like he had a good weekend since he dragged a bunch of toys out he never plays with probably showing off.”
“Kat was great! I was in a last minute crunch to find a sitter and she came through eager and experienced! 🙌🏽 The meet and greet went well and she handled my big 97lb baby beautifully. Plenty of updates and the house was clean upon return. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Kat!”
“Ashley did an amazing job. Tons of photos and updates of our cat and puppy. She also cleaned our home(kitchen and floors) which was SUCH a treat to come home to after travel! She was amazing!”
“Cara was amazing with our 2 jack russel terriers while we were on vacation for a week. She sent pictures and videos daily which we adored. Our younger, newer dog warmed up to her quickly. She played ball with pur older dog. Good communication, reliable and helped us relax by not having to worry about the dogs while on vacation since we knew they were with someone who cared. Definitely will be requesting Cara in the future. Thank you Cara!”
“Alicia truly is a Super Star Sitter. Right from my first contacts with her everything went so smoothly for me. She was a big help getting me started with using the app but by far her work as a sitter for my two dogs was phenomenal. Along with all the many small things that are so important with watching our dogs. I will be booking her again just as soon as I can. She is awesome. Thank you.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and the entire process was simple - and Max did a great job with our 4 pets! He scheduled time to meet us beforehand, and his communication and availability were great. Our dogs are high-energy and our cats have special diets, but Max took care of them without issue. He sent great pictures and we did not have a worry while we were away :)”
“Allison was fantastic! Our two cats were so loved and she took the most professional photos of them to send to us. Our house was immaculate as well. Allison also went above and beyond to help us prepare for a snowstorm that would start as we returned. Would book her again and again.”
“Clarisa took great care of my 2 senior dogs and one senior cat for a week while I was away for 5 days. She was very sweet my pets, and they were happy and content when I got home as if I had never been gone. Exactly what you hope for! Clarisa was very communicative with me during the trip and sent daily photos of them which is always comforting. I highly recommend her services for your pets!”
“Matt did a great job of taking care of our home, plants and dogs. He kept me informed of how the dogs were doing and sent pictures. He actually came by one more time following the initial meeting to go over meds, etc. The house looked great when we got home and the plants and dogs thrived.”
“Katie did a wonderful job dog sitting for us. She kept us informed of how the dogs where doing and what they were up to. The dogs looked healthy and happy when we returned home. We would definitely book Katie again.”
“Maya was great! She made sure to get all important information beforehand and even offered to meet Winston before watching him. She communicated throughout the time and sent a picture. She is very nice and you can tell she really cares about your pet :)”
“Ryleigh was fantastic. She provided us with lots of updates and pictures during our trip and made sure our dogs had lots of love and play time. Would highly recommend anyone to go to Ryleigh for your pet sitting needs!”
“I have had Stephanie watch my dogs twice now, and she is amazing with them! The second round, my senior dog had some unexpected GI issues that Stephanie handled perfectly. Clear communication, very responsive. I will definitely book again!”
“I had Tori stay with my three cats - two of whom aren’t integrated with the third. She paid attention to my directions about that and was in contact a lot during the weekend. I really appreciated her attention to detail and willingness to give my girls cuddles. And she cleaned up after herself. Definitely recommend.”

Ava stayed with our pups again after watching them last summer. I felt secure they were getting the best care as she was wonderful about providing a brief daily check-in with picture. She ensured our older boy received his required medicine, even charting it for me. We came home to happy and healthy dogs. We will definitely request her as our pet sitter as long as she is willing to watch our dogs. Thanks Ava!
Jenni was an excellent dog sitter for our 2 dogs. She is friendly and very communicative. We received regular updates with pictures on walks and questions when necessary. Our dogs were happy when we got home and clearly well cared for. I would rebook Jenni again!
Mallory was a great sitter for our dog Gordon on relatively short notice! She very respectfully watched our home and Gordon, sharing many adorable photos and making sure our house was cleaner when we got back than when we left. Gordon even seemed to miss her quite a bit the first couple of days after she left :) highly recommend Mallory as a sitter, and I think Gordon would too!
Isabel took excellent care of our two dogs in our home while we were out of town for a week. I appreciated her check-ins and pictures. She went above and beyond our expectations. Our dogs are not always the easiest to walk and she still walked each of them every day. Thank you!!!
Corinne took such great care of our senior dog during our week away. It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family, so we were definitely nervous, but she made the whole experience so much easier. She sent us pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We could tell he was well cared for and comfortable at home while we were gone. We’d absolutely trust Corinne to watch him again!
Katie watched our dogs while we were away and was fantastic! We have two pups, and both can be a little slow to warm up. Within 5 minutes of meeting Katie they were following her around asking for pets. She sent consistent updates and was very quick to respond to messages. Our house was even cleaner than when we left. Would book again without any hesitation!
Sam and Chris were amazing! I received multiple updates throughout the day along with cute videos. This was their first time watching my fur kids, and I was out of town with little cell service. I fully trusted them to take great care of the animals and our home. The house was immaculate when I got home, and the babies were as happy as could be!
After meeting Jennifer and Sharon, I felt very confident in leaving my babies in their care. I have a terminally ill cat and didn't want to leave her with just a person looking in twice a day so felt a live-in pet sitter was the way to go. I was not disappointed. They took great care of both of my fur babies and I would gladly book them again. I did not worry about my kitties while I was gone because I knew they were in great hands.
