1. Amanda B.

“Amanda was fantastic! She is very professional, always on time and reliable. She stayed at our home caring for our dog while we attended our son’s wedding out of town. Amanda sent many pictures and took Barkley for walks daily. She also brought our mail in and cleaned up the house before she left. Her communication was excellent too. This was our first experience with an in-home dog sitter and it was perfect!”


2. Amanda G.

“Amanda was a great sitter for our dog and two cats. We came home to three very well cared for and happy family members. She checked in as discussed/requested and let me know when she administered my pup’s meds. She also did a great job looking after our home. It was just as we left it. We would recommend her to anyone and hope she will have us back!”


3. Jane M.

“Our dog Max loves when Jane is his dog sitter! She always sends us updates and pictures while we are away. We are able to enjoy ourselves and not worry about our pup when she is staying with him. She is the best and we are so thankful for her!!”


4. Michaela B.
“Michaela is so good with animals! She’s a responsible and conscientious house sitter, and genuinely enjoys the time she spends with the animals she’s caring for. She has had several pets of her own, and she has cared for our house and animals several times and I’m always very happy with her efforts!”


5. Jayson F.

“Jayson is amazing! He was so communicative & sent pictures of our dogs while we were gone. We have 2 giant dogs, & he handled them beautifully, they were so calm when we got back, which is not always the case. In addition, my house was spotless which is such a gift to come home to! I will definitely be booking Jason again, I recommend him highly!”


6. Nicole H.

“Nicole was the best sitter I have had on Rover! She helped me out last minute in a bind, was so responsive and constantly sending me pics of my pups! I will definitely be booking her again!”




7. Annie H.

“Annie was amazing!! She sent updates morning and evening with several pics and videos each time. She played outside with her and even did some training. Our Janie had a wonderful time with her!!”


8. Lauren R.

“Lauren to perfect care of my two basset hounds. She sent me pictures and updates. She really took the stress out of my travel. Thank you Lauren!”


9. Joanna N.

“Joanna did a great job!! She was very communicative. She sent pictures of the pets regularly, followed all directions left, reached out with any questions, and left the house tidy upon the end of the service. She even came over a week before to meet the pets and familiarize herself with the location of foods and treats! Very thankful for her work!”


10. Anne B.

“Anne is amazing! We had unusual circumstances and she really helped us through. She was great at updating us and sending pictures so I didn’t worry. I have an older dog and they sometimes have accidents and she was very understanding. I had her stay at my house and she left it looking exactly like when I left. I highly recommend Anne.”


11. Jenna S.

“Kept in touch often & sent lots of pictures of our sweet boys! We could tell our boys were well taken care of by Jenna. I would definitely recommend her & will use her services again.”


12. Carla S.
“Carla was so wonderful to work with! We had Carla watch our two dogs in our home over thanksgiving and she took such great care of both the dogs and our home. We came back and she had vacuumed and washed her bedding and everything! Truly went above and beyond! One of our dogs had been having some behavioral issues against the other and we were upfront with needing someone prepared to handle this should it occur. Fortunately they were on their best behavior and in the one instance of aggression she quickly jumped in, separated the dogs, and did exactly what I would have done. I cannot recommend Carla any higher for anyone looking for dog sitting services. I could even tell from the photos she shared how happy my dogs were the entire time meaning she was giving them plenty of love and attention. I will definitely be staying in touch and booking Carla again in the future.”




13. Tabitha J.


“Tabitha did a great job taking care of my four large dogs while my husband and I were out of town for a week. I was super nervous to have someone take care of them as two of them have never been left before and two previously had a bad kennel experience. Tabitha worked hard to put us all at ease and win over my oldest dog who is a big believer in stranger danger. She sent photos every day of the dogs and it was evident when we got home that the dogs had a great week with her. We will definitely use Tabitha again in the future!”


14. Kelsey C.

“Our experience with Kelsey was wonderful! She took great care of our high maintenance/anxious dog and kept the house immaculate. She sent regular pictures of both pets and was always quick to respond to messages. We have already rebooked her for a future trip!”




15. Ross B.

“Ross did great with our dogs. Two of the three dogs have high needs and medication. We provide a lot of instructions and Ross executed all of them perfectly. Very happy with the experience.”


16. Allison L.

“Allison is fantastic! Not only did she communicate with me a few times a day with updates on my sweet older dog, she also helped my neighbor with a small emergency ❤️❤️ I fully trust her and I recommend her 100%.”


17. Hanna B.
“Hanna is a wonderful pet lover and will take great care of your pet! She cares for her own cat (Fran) like she is a human and makes sure Fran has everything she needs. She is always checking in on Fran while she is away on trips so she will take the best care of your pets while you are away. There is no better person to take care of your pet than Hanna!”


18. Yai M.

“Yai did an exceptional job of taking care of the babies, er, dogs. I had a last minute trip come up, and Yai accepted the sitting job with 24 hours notice. She even came over that evening to meet the dogs, and learn the feeding routines including medicines for the dogs. She was extremely pleasant, and sent plenty of pictures and videos to me that provided peace of mind while I was away. The dogs seemed to really love her. I would highly recommend Yai to look after your doggies!!! Thanks So much YAI. Wonderful job!!!!!”


19. Carolyne T.

“Carolyne took great care of our fur babies while we were gone. We have a pretty complicated pet care routine because we have a dog, a cat and a bunny, all of whom require different types of care. It was great knowing that they were in the care of someone who had so much experience and expertise as both a pet sitter and a veterinary tech. It was also very apparent how much she loves animals and caring for them.”
