1. Evie I.
“Evie was available short notice to watch our pup Mocha while we moved into a new home. Thanks to her flexibility we were able to focus on moving and knew that Mocha was cared for and getting all the attention and exercise she needs. At 10 months, she’s a wrecking ball and can be very mouthy. Despite Mocha being extra bitey and not really napping or eating, Evie was patient and upbeat and they were still able to have fun and enjoy each others company. She was ver responsive and took everything I said into consideration and followed our wishes when it came to keeping Mocha separate from other dogs and crating her to see if she would nap. I would absolutely book again with Evie.”

“I am so glad my neighbour recommended Shane to me. He was very easy to communicate with, and did a meet and greet with Charlie and his lovely dogs to make sure they were compatible and to ask/answer all pertinent questions. He's obviously very experienced with animals and has a very calm demeanor. We received an update during the day, and several photos of Charlie's time with Shane. Looking forward to future visits!”

14. Sharon & Sri L.
“Sharon and Sri watch my dog on a weekly basis while I’m at work. I’ve had a great experience so far and my dog seems to enjoy his time there. My dog is 12 years old and has some health issues which was my primary concern when looking for a sitter. Sharon and Sri understand his needs and provide good care including administering his daily medication and accommodating his IVDD. They are responsive and send updates and pictures throughout the day which is nice and reassuring. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“I am vouching for Lauren because I know she is attentive and thoughtful! Not only is Lauren passionate about animals, but she is extremely responsible. As a Rover employee myself, I can confidently say that she will be a fabulous sitter. She is kind, prompt, organized, and timely. Lauren is a lover of dogs, as she frequently speaks of her own canine friend, Penelope. Lauren's attentiveness should allow you to feel comfortable leaving your precious pet with her! Your pet will surely feel loved with Lauren and have a blast with her!”
16. Rebecca K.
“We recently entrusted our beloved pups, North and Aang, to the care of Rebecca while we were away on vacation. We couldn't have been happier with our decision! When we returned home, North and Aang were relaxed, happy, and in great health. Even North's itchy ear was taken care of thanks to Rebecca's prompt attention. She kept us updated throughout our trip with adorable photos and reassuring messages, putting our minds at ease. Rebecca is not only a skilled dog sitter but also a wonderful person. She's kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. We felt confident that our furry friends were in the best hands. If you're looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter, we highly recommend Rebecca. She's simply the best!”
