1. Noelle B.


“Noelle did a great job with our 8 month old Violet. She kept us up to date daily with texts and pictures. Violet was recovering from a broken leg. Was a nice feeling to know Noelle was at the house taking care of her. I would recommend her for your pet. I hope she had a good time watching her and would be interested in another house sit at another time. Thanks🐶🐾”


2. Shauna R.


“Our pups seemed very content when we got home from our weekend trip. Shauna came early to make sure they were happy and even remade the bed in the room where she stayed.”


3. Courtney W.

“Courtney is great! She made an effort to get to know my dog and took really good care of her, keeping me informed through pictures and texts. When I returned home, my dog didn't want her to leave!”




4. Sonia P.


“Sonia was terrific! She took great care of our two big dogs while we were traveling for the weekend. She sent pictures a couple of times a day and made sure we knew all was well. We will definitely book her again!”




5. Paul Y.

“We just returned from a seven day Alaska cruise. Paul was amazing from the get go, we started receiving photos of our two beagles, before we got to the airport. Paul also not just took our dogs for a walk but took them on adventure every day. When we return home, our house was as we left in. Thank you again Paul! We will highly recommend him to take care of your fur kids.”


6. Jessica A.


“Jessica, took care of our two older dogs, a Golden Retriever, Murphy (13) and a Maltese, Malcolm (11.5), and our cat Autumn(13) while we were away for about 10 days. Jessica took great care of our pet babies and our house. We felt confident in her care and professionalism, and we are so grateful we found her!! They all love her too:). Thank you Jessica!”


7. Lina H.

“Lina was amazing. Highly recommend. She regularly corresponded with us about our dog, Ru, sending lovely pics and helpful updates about his diet and well being. Will definitely be requesting her again. She also left our place spotless. Thanks Lina!!!”


8. Victoria A.

“I have been using Rover for years and Victoria has been one of the best house and pet sitters I’ve ever had. She was quick to communicate, sent great photos, and I came home to happy animals. The best surprise was that the house looked cleaner than when I left. She took care of my plants and even folded some laundry that was left in the dryer. I’ve been looking for a regular sitter for my pets to get to know and I think I found her! Couldn’t recommend more!”


9. Madi L.

“Madi did a great job pet sitting while we were away. We booked on short notice, but she was flexible, thorough and better yet all of our pets loved her from the second they met. Would definitely book with Madi again!”


10. Mike H.

“Mike is fantastic! He was professional and an excellent communicator—from the first message all the way through the stay. His attention to detail, skill in asking the right questions about my dog's needs, and regular updates with phots was worth every penny!”


11. Jane G.


“Jane took wonderful care of our dog! He is older and requires medications and a particular diet, he is also a pretty anxious dog and Jane handled all of it with ease. Our dog was happy and relaxed when we got home. Thank you Jane!”


12. Camille P.

“Camille did an amazing job. We have two new pups that weren’t too excited to have someone new in the house, but she seemed to soothe them and make them feel comfortable (which was in turn made ME feel comfortable!!) Thanks so much, Camille-you rock!”


13. Ayman S.
“I had Ayman watch my senior cat for a week when I was on vacation out of state. I had no issues, and no emergency calls about my cat. Ayman is very dependable and reliable. She always makes sure to clarify any behavioral issues with the cat that she needs to be aware of. I’ll be going to her when I go on vacation again.”


14. Sarah W.
“I have had the service of many pet sitters but I always try and get Sarah first. She is so friendly and my pets always bond with her quickly. I call her my dog whisperer. She is super reliable and trust worthy”

18. John G.
“I have a rescue terrier mix with separation anxiety and some reactivity. John was patient and attentive with her and was helpful in thinking through some training regimes we could institute to move her along. He gave affection when appropriate (i.e., as a reward for good behavior) and was committed to ensuring she got the exercise she needed on a daily basis. He also found a new dog park to help with her socialization. Grateful for his insight and help.”


19. Bennett W.
“Bennett is so great with our dog Stella. He is very patient with her as she gets into her old age and is on top of her medication schedule. Bennett treats her as his own and we never have to worry about anything when he’s with her. Stella LOVES him and is always so happy to see him! Highly recommend him and will continue to trust him in the future.”


20. Nicole H.

“Nicole has watched our dog several times during house sits and has been great each time. She’s great at communicating with us and our pup is always happy when we arrive back.”
