1. Barbara D.
“Barbara is an absolute gem and fantastic dog (and house) sitter! She was so kind and loving to our dog Brie during a recent trip of ours out of town. Barbara really became invested in understanding Brie's needs, preferences, routines, etc. and this was very comforting to me. She was also very communicative during our absence -- not only with photos (much more forthcoming than other sitters we have had) but also stories, anecdotes, observations etc. about their shared days. It was as if a family member were watching our sweet pup. Barbara also took wonderful care of our house. She is a careful steward of her surroundings, and treads softly in life. Nothing was out of place; everything was spotless and in the same or better order as I had left it for her. I would highly recommend Barbara to others and look forward to having her care for Brie in the future. Thank you Barbara!”
2. Jae W.
“Jae took excellent care of Ginny. We had an unexpected delay with the CrowdStrike travel delays and Jae was able to extend an extra day. Plenty of photos of Ginny, very respectful of our home and excellent communication. Highly recommended.”
3. Ginger H.
“Viginia was excellent! She is very punctual, commincates well, and most importantly she took great care of our dog and our house. Will definitely use her services again.”
4. Aiden R.
“Aiden is an awesome young man that speaks to animals. He is very responsible and is an eagle scout. We have three dogs, a tortoise, and a lizard. He is good with young animals that need extra attention and elderly pets that need medication. I highly recommend him.”
5. Christa joy C.
“Just wonderful. We feel so lucky to have found Christa. In fact, we have already asked her to watch our dogs again. She provided updates with photos/videos and made sure our dogs still got their walk super early in the mornings before the crazy heat hit. We are extremely pleased to know our pups were well taken care of 💕🙏”
6. Carla D.
“Carla was INCREDIBLE! She sent us many photo updates of her and our dog which made our trip out of town just that much sweeter. She also left the house cleaner than she found it! Highly recommend booking with Carla!”
7. Michele T.
“Tyke and Charlotte's stay with Michele was a wonderful experience. She has a great location right on the way to the DE and OCMD beaches. Very flexible with my changing (due to traffic and kids!) drop off and pick up times. Michele definitely knows dogs and the way to win them over. My temperamental "old man mutt" took to her immediately! Thanks again Michele”
8. Nicque M.
“This was our first time using Rover. We have a Cane Corso, which is a breed that doesn’t trust many people, and that also needs someone that is not going to let them get pushed around. Nicque was that person for us. She offered to come visit with him as many times as we needed, to get to know him, and for him to feel comfortable with her. It didn’t take many visits. Our dog took to her right away, which put our minds at ease while we were away. She kept us updated and sent pictures throughout the days we were gone. As a bonus she washed all the towels and bedding that was used. We are now able to book more vacations knowing that when we leave we will have someone that cares for our fur babies. She treats them as if they were her own.”
9. Lorena I.
“Lorena is everything you could ever want in a sitter. She takes care of all your needs and my animals warmed up to her right away. I would highly recommend.”
10. Nicole & Matthew B.
“Finding a reliable caregiver for my pets, who can not only meet their basic needs but also provide the love and attention they deserve can be a difficult task. Despite my attempts to prepare pet sitters with instructional notes, videos and charts, many fall short in understanding the specific needs of my pets, as they are not pet owners themselves or don’t have multiple pets like I do. However, with Nicole, I never have to worry. She goes above and beyond in caring for my pets, and the excitement on my dogs' faces when she arrives, with tails wagging, speaks volumes. She is very thoughtful and thorough in ensuring their routines are followed while I’m away. Nicole doesn’t just come in to fulfill her duties; she genuinely loves animals, whether they are hers or someone else’s. I completely trust her with all my pets, including my farm animals. I have no hesitation in recommending her for pet sitting and other pet services. I wholeheartedly endorse Nicole for anyone seeking a compassionate and dedicated pet caregiver.”
11. Isabella H.
“Isabella did a wonderful job watching our 2 pups over 4th of July. Our one dog is afraid of fireworks but she played calming music for him and made sure he wasn't alone or afraid. We highly recommend her and think she did a great job. We got picture updates every day and felt very comfortable that our fur babies were in good care.”
12. Marilyn R.
“Marilyn cared for my 11 week old German Shepherd puppy that is quite the handful at this young age. I was so nervous to leave her, but Marilyn made me feel at ease and was so patient with my care / training guidelines. I came home to a happy and healthy pup! Thank you so much, Marilyn! 🤍”

14. Juliet V.
“Juliet was great with our pups and a welcome house sitter. She kept me updated and shared pictures. Our dogs got the attention and care they need & want! We hope to use her again!”
15. Jeannette W.
“So thankful for Jeannette’s help as we were away for our wedding. We met her before this weekend and showed her our home and introduced her to our puppy, which gave us an opportunity to get to know her. Having someone come into your home and watch your pets can be stressful, but working with Jeannette was stress free! We would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting their fur babies cared after dearly!”
16. Katie T.
“Katie is super good with animals! Over the years she has had four cats and is always very loving and good with them. She has also had multiple dogs and is super good about taking care of them and making sure they are safe and loved”
17. Sammi M.
“We came home to very happy dogs! Our house was also spotless and plants were watered! We will never take our fur babies to boarding again! Sammi was wonderful!”
18. Nicole M.
“Nicole is a wonderful petsitter! She took excellent care of our babies and I highly recommend her to all!! She took on our petsitting job at the last minute and it allowed us to be with family for the holidays! I can’t thank her enough!!!”

About: I currently work at a vet clinic which has allowed me to gain experience working with cats and dogs. Not to mention, if there is ever a problem that occurs with your pet I could take them to the vet clinic I work at since it's a 24/7 emergency clinic. I have pet sat in the past when I first moved to California in 2022. Besides that I have grown up with cats and dogs my whole life. I love animals, and my dream is to be a veterinarian one day. I'm currently working at a vet clinic five days a work. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday I work from 5pm to 1:30 am. Then Thursday and Friday I work from 4pm to 12:30am. I also just recently started college and have a class on Monday and Wednesday from 10 am to 2pm. Then a morning class on Thursday from 9am to 10:30 am. I care for pets in client's home by making sure the pet has water, food, and medicine (if it has any). Also, by giving the pet love if it wants attention or missing their owner. Making sure a pet is cared for is the most important thing a person can do.
