“Adam was prompt, friendly, and loved our pups (a sentiment they returned). He took great care of them and we had no worries about leaving them in his care for our week-long trip out of town. He is reliable and gives timely information. We will definitely hire him again.”

“Renee was wonderful with our 4 pets! She house sat for us for a few days and followed all of our instructions. Everything went so smoothly. She was very considerate and was not afraid to ask questions during her stay, which I prefer. She went above and beyond taking our dogs on super long walks (which she def didn’t have to, esp in the winter weather!). I am thankful to have had Renee taking care of our animals and will def rebook in the future!”

“Emily is communicative, trustworthy, and compassionate. During her first stay with our dog and two cats, she handled a vet emergency responsibly and with grace. We’re very happy to recommend her services!”

“Aleia is great with our dogs and very responsive. She stayed with them for 2 weeks while we were away. Great communication throughout and she took wonderful care of our home too. We will use her again for sure!”

“Walter and Sarah provided such good care to our pup! They did a house sit for us and were incredibly responsive, provided good updates, and made our anxious dog feel very comfortable. Walter took Bluebell for runs, an activity she loves! And when they left, they left some calming jazz music on to keep her company. We would definitely work with Walter and Sarah again!”

“Anana took wonderful care of my dogs. Communication between us was excellent and my dogs were clearly taken excellent care of while I was away She also left my house in perfect condition. Highly recommend.”


“My pups fell in love with Joseph. He took great care of both dogs and sent photos and videos of them to me. I also appreciate having such peace of mind while I was away.”


“Melanie was GREAT! Lydia REALLY likes her and Melanie was able to help stay with her while I was out of town and had no humans around. I would absolutely use her again when I have to leave for travel. Highly recommend!”
“Tammy was a fantastic sitter for my cat Solana! She was so kind and asked all detailed questions about my cat’s medication and food schedule. I loved all the picture updates she gave of how my cat was doing while I was out of town. Thank you Tammy!”

“Gail was an excellent sitter. She stayed at my home for a week and took great care of Rory. She was communicative and sent pictures and updates that made us feel very comfortable. The house was left in excellent shape. Will definitely reach out again in the future”

“Michelle was wonderful with our two dogs! We needed someone to stay with them last minute when our original plans fell through. She communicated with us throughout our time away, sending photos and texts, and left our house just as she found it. Our two dogs appreciated the walks and loving attention and were happy and healthy when we got back. She also was able to administer meds for both our pets. And she was super flexible and able to stay an extra night when we needed to adjust our plans. We will definitely be using Michelle again!”

“Mads did such a great job of caring for my apartment and my skittish, chatty cat while I was on a week-long trip out of the country! They were super diligent and consistent in sending me updates and photos of my cat, and they were able to accommodate my rather complicated pet feeding and house plant watering schedule. It was such a relief to come home after a roughly twelve hour flight to find my space in perfect shape and my cat fed and happy! I would definitely book with them again and highly recommend them!”

“Johanna was truly exceptional. Her prompt communication, commitment to caring for our dog and ensuring he had all of his needs met, and respect for our space was astounding. When we got home, my jaw dropped when I realized the lengths she had gone to leave our home cleaner than we found it. We have always felt like having in-home dog care meant sacrificing some of the ways we like to care for our home. Often coming home to broken items, stains, and a mess to clean up. Johanna clearly went above and beyond any and all expectations. We feel so lucky to have found her! We will absolutely be hiring her next time we need care.”

“Tanisa was wonderful! Checked in often with the best pictures of our pups. They were happy and content with her! We enjoyed our weekend away knowing they were in good hands!”

“Heather is absolutely lovely and took such great care of our cat and our apartment, while we were away on holiday. She was very responsive and kept in touch every day with updates, photos and videos. She was also fantastic when we had some unforeseen maintenance issues come up in the apartment and handled everything so well - giving us no opportunity to stress about any of it! I cannot recommend her enough. We will definitely be working with her again, next time we're out of town.”

About: I have four American bullies. One orange tabby cat. And one turtle I like animals more than humans. And I am completely OK with that. I’m currently working part time. My availability is usually open during the week anytime after 6 PM. And my weekends are clear. I love pets and I will treat them as if they were my own family. Pets are welcome on couches and beds. Whatever makes them as comfortable as they can be. They can cuddle and get as many belly rubs as they want.
“Raffaella was wonderful. She spent lots of time playing with my pups. She sent tons of pictures and gave me fun updates. The dogs looked very happy. I would highly recommend her.”

“Mack is fantastic!! Archie had the best weekend with her. He was so happy and had a lot of fun. Archie is timid with almost everyone, but Mack made him feel at ease. Mack was so communicative and sweet sending updates and pictures! I highly recommend her for your pet needs!”

“Jamie was an amazing dog sitter! He took great care of our dog, especially when she had an upset stomach. He was also quick to respond and sent regular updates, we would book him again!”

Giovanna was wonderful while house-sitting with our cat! She was very friendly and accommodating, and focused on making sure our cat’s needs were met while we were away, spending lots of quality time with her and sending regular photo/video updates. Would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a communicative and attentive pet sitter!

Our usual sitters were out of town so we jumped on Rover and were so lucky to have found Emily at the last minute! She was professional and personable but best of all, she took great care of our sweet baby! Because we work from home, we’re with our cat most of day, so we needed a sitter who was able to work from home and could stay overnight. Emily was super thorough during the meet n greet and during the stay gave us daily updates and pics. Patti seemed to really love her! We came home to a clean house and a happy kitty. I would recommend Emily to anyone who wants special and loving care ❤️

This was the second time Dilrose watched my pup and again she did an amazing job. Dilrose is a great communicator and regularly shares photos. I had some flight issues on my return home and Dilrose was very accommodating which I appreciated immensely. Highly recommend!

Carla is wonderful! My husband and I both had last minute work trips come up at the same exact time, and Carla was available to watch our two dogs on short notice. She stayed in our home to watch over them since they are both older, and they couldn't have been in better hands. She was diligent, made sure we had care instructions, and sent photos and updates for us through her whole time watching them. My flight was delayed due to weather, and she even stayed a few hours extra to make sure they were taken out and comfortable until I could get home. She was even willing to come back in the evening to give them dinner and take them out again if my flight had gotten delayed even more. She is so sweet, and she left our home in immaculate condition. We will absolutely be reaching out to Carla to take care of our boys again!

Jillian was exceptional with Finnegan! She went above and beyond to send multiple photo updates daily, showed compassion and kindness and was very communicative. I really appreciated how much she was in tune with Finnegan, and she left the house in spectacular shape. Definitely recommend!!

I knew Emily was ten best choice for my Henry as soon as I met her and i wasn’t wrong. I have a 12 year old lab mix and have been worried about leaving him in the care of anyone outside of my family. She took such good care of my guy- she checked in with me a couple of times but was able to navigate everything else with ease. Would request Emily again in the future

Claude took care of my bernese mountain dog Glen Coco in my home while I was away on vacation, and they were an incredible caretaker for my girl. Glen Coco can be nervous with new people and hasn’t stayed with a non-relative in over 5 years, but she warmed up to Claude immediately at our meet-and-greet, and from the photos they sent, it was very obvious that Glen Coco was super happy and comfortable during the entire stay. Claude was very thorough in their communication and provided lots of great updates during my week away. They went above and beyond in their care for Glen Coco, spent lots of time loving on her, and made sure any issues were addressed promptly. They were also super respectful of my space and left my home in great condition. I will happily book them again for future stays!

This was our second time booking with Renee. She took great care of Bert while my boyfriend and I were out of town for a wedding. She clearly loves dogs and treats Bert so well. He was very happy to see her again. Not only did she take good care of Bert she also tidied up the house before departing.

Kelso was absolutely incredible taking care of my doggo child who can be a handful, I completely felt at ease with my dog son in her care! She kindly gave me updates, pics, video, and even got him his first pup cup which he loved! She administered his AM & PM meds without missing any, gave him his special meals, and was able to handle his dog reactivity on walks & keep my boy safe & other dogs safe as well. Cookie was even sad to see her go as he made a new bff, and he’s a picky lil guy. She’s super easy going and down to earth, I will definitely be rebooking the next time I need a doggo sitter & will be recommending for any friends who need dog sitters too!! 🙏🙌👌💖💖💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🐶☺️🤩
