“Avalon did a wonderful job housesitting for me! She took great care of Enzo and my home, she went above and beyond taking him to outside on long walks and always sends pictures. She had the sensibility to notify me of any small injuries my dog sustained by being his crazy self, and took action to nurse his owies. I never have anything to complain about hiring her!”
“Zack has taken care of our anxiety-ridden girl for a couple years now, and is also starting care for our new addition with IBD. There’s always been one issue or another that we’ve left for him - lock broken, miscommunication on time, doors and blinds chewed before he arrives - through all of it, Zack has been great! He rolls with it and makes sure our pups are well cared for. We’ll continue to hire him as long as he’s willing to put up with our craziness! 10/10 highly recommend”
“Jazmine did great with my two dogs! I was in an area with spotty cell service all week and felt very comforted knowing Jazmine was caring for my dogs! She even had little report cards for them when I returned. It was so sweet!”
“Came back to happy pets, a clean house and live plants. Julie communicated well. My pup ripped a few claw while I was gone and Julie managed that too. Thanks!”
“Sydney was great with our 3 cats. We've used them 2x now and had great responses from the cats, clean house, and great communication. Highly recommend”
“Traveled out of state for Christmas and had the best gift from Izabelle! She stayed over in our home caring for our little Milo, who can be a little much and who needs someone with a lot of patience and understanding. Izabelle did just that and more, during the busiest time of year! Izabelle was a great house guest and dog sitter and would very much so, recommend her to care for your 🐾 loved ones!”
“Kara was amazing once again! Second time booking with her and she made me feel so comfortable leaving my babies for a 4 day trip. Daily updates and photos, so communicative and responsive, beyond respectful of our home and belongings. Seriously love love love her and hope to use her for as long as she offers her services. Thank you Kara for taking the anxiety out of our trip and loving our babies.”
“Nancy did an amazing job watching Milly while we were away. She was quick to respond to our request for a meet and greet. I could tell immediately that she loves animals and put my mind at ease that she would provide the level of care that we desired. Nancy sent us photos and updates while we were away. She followed Milly's daily schedule that I had laid out for her to the letter. She was careful to keep the house very clean and orderly. Milly was a very happy and content little girl when we got home. I am so grateful to have found Nancy and will not hesitate to use her again in the future!!”
“Maggie was an amazing find! She sent daily updates and photos and our dogs absolutely loved her. I will absolutely use her again in the future for our dogs and she gave us such a peace of mind that both Teddy and Sadie were happy and well cared for!”
“Freya was great with my two pups! She is excellent at communicating and providing updates. Our dogs were well taken care of and I didn’t have to worry once when being away. Will be booking again!”
“As usual, Rachael went above and beyond! My two senior pups are very needy, and Rachael takes very good care of them. This is the third or fourth time I have booked Rachael, and I am always comforted knowing my babies are in capable hands. Thank you, Rachael!”
“My dogs love Nancy. They are excited to see her. I have three Havanese and they keep her busy. Nancy cleaned a couple of refrigerator shelves. It was unexpected but much appreciated.”
“Best pet sitter ever! Benita is amazing with my pack and she took wonderful care of them. Dealt with their quirks;, provided lots of updates with pics and video, administered medications and kept them all happy and loved. Will definitely book again lots! I highly recommend her for any and all pets. She is wonderful! Came home to happy, healthy pets :)”
“Erica went above and beyond for our dogs. She helped us out in a bind with a last-minute booking/availability and quickly came by to meet the pups. It was so nice to leave town for a night and not have to worry about them, and she kept us updated often with texts and pictures. Highly recommend! Will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you Erica!!!”
“I had a long trip out of state over the holidays planned, and I was worried about leaving my fur babies for so long. But I was really grateful to have had someone there with the animals who was clearly so caring and attentive. Her communication was great, very friendly, and the animals clearly loved her! Got regular pictures so I knew they were in good shape and happy. Thank you thank you thank you!”
“Bradley did a fantastic job house and petting sitting my 2 dogs and 5 chickens. He was a good communicator and followed instructions perfectly. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
“Bridget was great with our little old man dog Shaq. She won him over quickly and kept him safe the whole time we were away. Cute picture updates & notes on how he was adapting. It was great. She showed excellent judgement when the power went out on our block & took our little dog home with her overnight. Really appreciated the care and commitment to keeping our boy safe. You are the best, Bridget! Thank you.”
“Tana was super with our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She must have a way with cats, because our scardy cat, Lucy, who hides from everyone, came out to be fed and even let Tana pet her. Tana took our two boys (dogs) for walks after it cooled off in the evenings because neither one of them do well in the heat any longer. She sent pictures regularly and followed directions from our 5!!!! pages of instructions (yes, we're obsessed with our babies!). If you want someone that will take good care of your babies, Tana is the one to contact. Kathy and Wendy”

Suzanne took wonderful care of my dog while staying at our home for a week. She sent photos nearly every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. I was especially impressed with how well she handled all of our pups quirks. It was clear that she was attentive, patient, and genuinely cared about his well-being. Knowing Suzanne was there made it so much easier to relax and enjoy our trip. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter. I would absolutely trust her to care for our pup again in the future.
When I leave town and leave my dogs with Katy, it’s such a relief knowing they’re in such good hands! Katy takes pictures and updates me everyday, which allows me to enjoy my time away without worry. And my dogs are always happy and healthy when I return! Thanks, Katy and Noah!
Jes and her husband were the best first Rover experience we could have asked for! Great to communicate with, took excellent care of our dog, Leeloo, and left our home spotlessly clean. We wouldn't hesitate to book again, all of our anxieties were immediately put at ease and everything went great!
Zack was incredible. Could not have asked for a better person to take care of our pups who are sweet but a handful. Left our home cleaner than we left it, updates with pictures, not a single worry while we were gone for over 2 weeks. Came home to 2 happy pups who are missing their friend Zack💙. If you are looking for a kind, super responsible professional this is your person!!!
Maia has been great! We've had her sit for us several times now and she has done great managing our chaotic 4 pet household while we've been out of town. Unfortunately we're moving out of the area and we're really going to miss having her as a sitter but I highly recommend her to anyone looking!
Rachael did an amazing job with my dog and cats, and house. My dogs are fairly recent rescues, and are very attached to me. They were a bit of a challenge, but Rachael managed things, and kept me informed throughout. Clean sheets and towels and a clean house when I got home!
Eleanor did an absolutely excellent of looking after my dog Enzo during Christmas break. It is obvious she loves dogs and they bonded immediately. She treated him as if he were her own, gave him lots of love, play, and more walks than I directed her to. She gave me regular updates and pictures which allowed me to have a worry free vacation. She also took very good care of my home. It was cleaner than I left. I would highly recommend Eleanor. If I could give her 10 stars I would!
Had a good experience with our pet sitter! From the very beginning, Ericson was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. Furbabies were happy, relaxed, and well looked after when we returned. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend Eric’s services to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.
