“Christina did such an amazing job watching my cats, what a blessing! My cats immediately trusted her from the start. She provided so many updates and great photos! The cats received so much attention from Christina and I could tell they had a blast. I appreciate the great care from Christina and will absolutely book in the future!”
“Zilalai once again did a fantastic job house/pet sitting my two cats for a week. I appreciate that she is reliable, follows the kitties’ usual routine, handles an occasional plumbing or a/c maintenance appointment, and leaves the house very tidy. Thank you, Zilalai!”


“Emily was absolutely fantastic!! She took incredible care of my lab Dixie, sending me a pup-date every day letting me know how she was doing :) She also left my place spotless. I will definitely re-book Emily for future dog-sitting!”

“Kaitlin was such an incredible dog sitter! She met him for a meet and greet in advance of her house sitting and he took to her very well. She was so courteous and respectful of our home and really went above and beyond to clean up after herself. She sent me frequent updates and photos and was always easy to reach. I can’t recommend her enough, she’s the best sitter we’ve found on Rover!”

“K took great care of my puppy! K took time to discuss the sitting arrangement, my pup’s routine, and provided excellent care while I was away. I will surely book again!”

“Nina is a true 5 star sitter! Helped us out with a last minute booking, arrived early, asked all the right questions regarding Bella's care, and went above and beyone taking care of her. Strongly recommend!”

“Emma is courteous, punctual, friendly, followed my instructions to a "T," and clearly loves dogs. I will 100% ask her back for house- and dogsitting as well as dog walking!”

“Anna was great with Lucy! She was very communicative and flexible. When our flight was canceled she stayed an extra night to watch Lucy. We will definitely be using her as a dog sitter in the future!!”

“Rev was the most responsive, caring and thoughtful caring person! She sent us many, many pictures with updates throughout the days we were away and went out of her way to coordinate with our families as I had undergone an emergency surgery and couldn’t make it back in time. Simply put, Rev is the bestest!!”

“Nicole was excellent on her services. She stayed in our apartment for a house visit and she was super respectful of the place. She was very effective in communication and I was never wondering what our dog was up to, since Nicole planned out several activities and outings. I’m 100% hoping to re-book her for any future needs.”

“Sabina was wonderful! Made friends with our reactive dog very quickly! She also took care of him during a power outage, and we are so grateful. We came back to a happy and relaxed lil guy!”

“Anna was excellent with our two very different dogs. She was able to comfort our more anxious dog and get him to eat, and she was able to calm our more energetic dog! Would definitely recommend and will rebook”

“Kristina went above and beyond taking care of my senior dog Jazzy. She sent lots of photos and updates everyday. When we met before booking, she took notes during our conversation, which demonstrated how she is a detail oriented person. I left her a 2-3 page document with instructions about Jazzy’s routine and my apartment. She followed the instructions very closely and everything went perfectly! It was a huge relief to know Jazzy was in the care of an amazing person while I was away. For anyone with senior dogs, you can be assured that Kristina will give your pup the care they need (but for dogs of all ages too)! ☺️🐾 I would certainly hook her again!”

“Brooke took care of my puppy for a few hours at night. Lots of communication on how it was going and sent cute pictures. We came back to him sleeping peacefully. Would definitely have Brooke pet sit again!”

“Alexander was amazing! He was very caring towards our dogs and our apartment. He followed our instructions and was very good at keeping us updated with messages and pictures. One of our dogs had a medical emergency right before our trip and he was quick to adapt to her needs and willing to administer medication. He was on top of reaching out for any issues and we felt like our dogs were in very good hands. We’d love to book with him again for our next trip!”

“Eveline sat Deuce at our place and for couple of days. Deuce enjoyed his time with Eveline. She agreed to sit Deuce at a short notice and took really good care of him. She asked us each and every detail about his day and made sure his routine was not interrupted while we were away. I would definitely ask her to sit Deuce again.”

“Devon house-sat and looked after our two dogs on August 11/12, 2025. Devon's great! Very kind with our dogs, speedy with communications, and conscientious with taking care of everything just right. We wholeheartedly recommend Devon to take care of your pets and/or house-sit for you! Thanks Devon!”

Eveline did amazing with Tuxy! She was very responsive and kept up communication / updates. Tuxy was super happy when I got home and I could tell he was well taken care of. Also, Eveline was extremely tidy around the apartment and took care of some chores she didn’t have to do - above and beyond!

Bianca was a great dogsitter and housesitter while we were gone for the weekend! She came over beforehand to meet Goose and asked lots of questions to make sure she was fully prepared. We got plenty of updates during the stay, and we felt like Goose was in good hands the entire time.

Ailise is awesome! She was flexible with our last minute modifications. She took care of two of our dogs with very different needs and personalities. She took great care of our home while we were away as well. We were a little nervous leaving our dogs for a weekend with a sitter but we couldn't be happier!

Madeleine cared for Piper for a week while we were away. She communicated with us daily exclusively through the Rover app, providing updates and photos. Piper was eating and going on walks, which usually means that she is comfortable and not super anxious. I would have Madeleine back again.

K is terrific! I came home to happy, well cared for pups and and the house was in great shape too. I like that they checked in regularly and asked questions, like how the dogs do in thunderstorms when a storm was predicted. Very proactive. I'll definitely ask K to look after the dogs again!

I had a wonderful experience with Victoria (Rev). We recently moved to Boston and Rev stayed in my apartment with Charlie for 5 nights, which is the longest I have had to leave him since moving. Charlie is older and has been a little anxious while adjusting to our move and it was clear that Rev gave him the love and attention he needed to keep him calm while I was away. Rev sent regular updates and photos, which helped keep my mind at ease. My flight was delayed and Rev was super accommodating to stick around until I got home. I would absolutely recommend Rev to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and truly exceptional dog sitter. We look forward to working with Rev in the future!

We have a very high energy ACD mix and Danielle was amazing with him!! He can be a bit standoffish at first but he quickly took on Danielle (and her dog Moose) as part of his pack. She sent tons of pictures and updates and was incredibly responsive both to our messages and to Griggs’ needs. She went above and beyond to make our dog comfortable and cater to our needs. It’s tough to find a good sitter and we will definitely be reaching out to Danielle again in the future. Also, her dog Moose is so sweet and we were impressed with how he handled and interacted with our rambunctious pup.
