Malia did a wonderful job taking care of my two rambunctious pups. One of them can be challenging on walks but Malia worked through it with patience and I really appreciate her efforts. She also left my house is great shape so there wasn’t much to clean up after I got back from my vacation. Would definitely recommend her for future sittings.

Best dogsitter ever. Sam handled our frightened little reactive baby with excellent care! We've had a lot of Rovers, and I've never felt so at ease or so sure that our babies were being loved as I did with Sam. We came home to a clean home and two happy girls with wagging tails.

Rebecca was wonderful. We desperately needed to quickly find someone to watch our dog and our son's dog so we could attend a wedding. The problem was my son's dog was diagnosed with diabetes a few days before. Luckily we found Rebecca on Rover. She was experienced with giving injections to dogs and was willing to stay at my house over the weekend while we attended the wedding. She sent us pictures of the dogs throughout the weekend and when we came home all was well with the house and the pups. I will definitely ask her to sit for us again!!!

Crystal is pure gold. As any loving pet owner can attest, leaving a furry family member for an extended period of time, particularly a sensitive one, can be nerve-wrecking and heart-wrenching. My skeptical, wary rescue named Lucy was putty in Crystal's loving arms for two and a half weeks. From daily photos and videos, the love affair was real. And then I came home to an absolutely spotless home with a polished copper sink. Crystal went above and beyond and I hope she'd like to house sit again. Lucy will miss her for sure!

Angela was amazing! She offered to do a meet and greet before sitting, which was perfect for my dog who is a little wary of new people. I also got plenty of updates and pictures. And I was able to enjoy my time away worry free because she was in such good hands.

Isaiah is a true professional, and the updates he gives throughout the day are awesome. Our puppy was 9 weeks old and Isaiah did a fantastic job helping us continue with his training for 3 days while we were away. Very nice guy as well! I highly recommend his services.

Kristin was excellent with both dogs this last week! There were some minor, upset tummy, issues while we were gone on this trip and Kristin handled it all like a pro, giving them medicine and texting me constant updates. Things were already on the mend by the time I got home. She really puts my mind at ease when I need to be away from my pups, they always get the best care with her!

Anny did an excellent job with in-home pet sitting of my 3 pets. I have a difficult, reactive dog, but Anny managed her perfectly and sent videos of our dog happy and relaxed! The kitties were very well taken care of too. Anny left everything very clean and just as I left it. I appreciated her punctuality and communication as well. I would not hesitate to book her again!

Laura has taken care of our dog and cat a number of times now and we could not ask for a more reliable and communicative pet sitter! This go round we were gone for an entire week. She sends lots of photos and an update every day, and takes great care of our gals. They are happy to see us but not desperately seeking our attention so we know she gives them lots of love! She also leaves our house immaculate and it’s so wonderful to return to happy pets and a clean home.

This was my first vacation using a pet sitting service so I was really anxious but Laurena made me feel at ease especially after meeting her in person. I needed an overnight sitter for 3 days since I have one kitty who is super social and vocal and one who is the extreme opposite. Laurena is very calm and knows how to interract with distrustful kitties like my Sofia who is very averse to any slight changes to her routine. The constant communication and texts with pictures further helped me feel less worried and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation because of Laurena's professional and kind work ethics. I absolutely recommend Laurena and I will definitely be seeking out her services during my next vacation.

Jasmine was amazing! She stayed at our house and cared for our dog and cat, watered our plants, collected our mail, and saved us at the last minute from a crisis. She was responsible, clean, communicative, honest, wise, and kind. We will definitely be asking Jasmine to care for our pets and home in the future. I can't recommend her more highly.
