1. Victoria B.

“Victoria did an amazing job taking care of my 3 dogs. Could not have asked for better care while I was away. She made a special trip back to my house to let them out again due to my flight not getting in until midnight. Appreciated her communication while I was gone.”


2. Mackenzie W.

“Great communication and daily photos/videos. This was our first time leaving our dog, so she didn't eat for the first day we were gone. We collaborated on some problem solving, and she decided she could eat again with the help of some peanut butter. House was well cared for, as well.”


3. Yasmin M.

“Great job by Yasmin. Cyrus the dog got to run in the yard and play tug, and Frank the cat was safely fed in the privacy of his bedroom. Well done and we appreciate Yasmin's pet care.”


4. Allison G.

“Allison was great!! We have an anxious large Retriever and we came home to a happy content boy! The house was cleaner then when we left and we got so many cute photos and updates. Very happy with Allison and highly recommend!”


5. Jenna R.

“Jenna is a genuine joy. Her immensely warm demeanor and professional presence made us feel incredibly comfortable leaving our crew of silly misfits in her care during our first partnership with Rover. Responsible, respectful and a real pleasure to work only begins to describe her and her gift of service. We are truly blessed to consider her to be a member of our pack. Thank you for you, Jenna! 💜”


6. Nadine H.

“We booked Nadine last minute for a trip for our dog. She was great about sending updates and pictures while we were gone. Definitely would use again!”


7. Emily P.

“Emily was great with our three pugs while we were traveling! She was patient and able to accommodate all of our requests for the pups’ schedules and routines. We are grateful for her help and the care she gave our sweet fur babies!”


8. Andrea M.

“Andrea stayed at our house and watched the sogs over a ling weekend. She gave us updates on the pets, was on time, met with us before she watched the dogs and asked great queations about their routines. I will for sure use her again if we need a dog or cat sitter.”


9. Summer M.

“Summer did an amazing job. This was our first experience with in-home care and it was really reassuring to know that Bama was getting good care. She noticed if there were any issues, worked with me when things came up, and, most importantly gave her love and attention when we weren't there. Her vet tech training gave me peace of mind since Bama is an older dog. She sent pics and videos, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use Summer again if the need arose. Thanks, Summer!”


10. Jess P.

“We would highly recommend Jess to anyone who needs a pet sitter. She was easy to communicate with. She sent us daily updates and pictures like we requested. She was respectful of our home and kept it nice and tidy. We didn't have any worries leaving town with her watching our house and dog. We met her prior to hiring her which put our minds at ease. She bonded with our dog and I would say my dog misses having her here. We will definitely hire her again the next time we leave town.”


11. Jessica D.

“Jessica was wonderful with our dogs and the overnights she did for us while we were out of town. She kept us notified of how things were going! Thank you Jessica!!!”


12. Javon L.

“I was very pleased with the loving care Jovan gave my dog. She gave me updates, and my dog was very happy when I returned home. Jovan also took excellent care of my home. I appreciate all she did.”


13. Katlin S.

“Katlin is a saint and great with my dogs! We usually use her for house and dog sitter, she's responsible and respectful of our home. Gladly schedule her again.”


14. Brenda E.


“Brenda was amazing, sent pictures, provided updates and assistance when one of my dogs was having allergy issues. I highly recommend her. I was very worried about leaving my dogs with a stranger and she eased my worries.”


15. Ian T.

“Ian watched our two dogs for several days. They were well taken care of and all of our directions were followed. We received picture updates and Ian responded to any messages sent.”


16. Sydney S.

“Sydney was so great with our two large dogs! Sydney was already working a full day interning for BPZ, but she modified her schedule so she could help us out. She was easy to work with and asked questions when needed. I believe she's very trustworthy and has a genuine love for animals. She sent several updates during the day (even a couple pics), which brightened my day and assured me the boys were in good hands. I would definitely have Sydney back, and would consider longer stays in the future. Thanks, Sydney!”


17. Lisa D.

“Lisa did a great job. She looked after my cat and two dogs. She stayed at my home while we were gone. First vacation we have been on in a few years. I don't think my dogs missed us. Trustworthy and did as she promised. Would use her again”


18. Austyn E.

“Austyn has so far proven to be reliable on the first visit of house sitting! He stayed with my sweet girl the entire weekend I had to be away at work! He was kind and respectful to my home! He agreed to be my go to sitter and so I’ll leave more reviews as things progress. High-key, I feel that he’s a great fit for me and my doggo and really glad he will be our reoccurring sitter when he’s available! Im a poor college age kid too, but when I able to afford tipping him more, I feel he’s worth it! I feel at peace with him and didn’t feel the need to check in multiple times a day like with other sitters. He holds to his word and commitment to care for your doggo! :)”


19. Sophia W.

“Sophia was great! She stayed with Tiffany while we Al were out of town for the holidays and when we got home Tiffany was so happy and calm. I’m always nervous leaving our senior girl with anyone, but Sophia sent us updates and pictures and made sure everything went smoothly.”


20. Nadia S.
“I would recommend Nadia to anyone. She will take the time out of her day to make sure your dog is taken care of. She wouldn’t hesitate to take on the tasks you need and she communicates well. If you need a dog sitter, Nadia is the right one for you.”
