Anais went above and beyond to provide loving care to our dogs - who can take a while to warm to new people. Anais was so patient and diligent with them - and communicative with us - we knew our pups were in the most capable and caring hands. We are so grateful. 🙏🏼

Ruby is an excellent pet sitter who has taken care of my dog, Belle many times. Belle is always excited to see Ruby, which I think is great as Belle is very old and hardly gets excited for anything anymore!

Wow! Charlii was truly a dream dog and house sitter. She took exquisite care of our blind 13yo dog while we were away. We got daily updates with photos/videos and really went the extra mile to keep her comfortable even with a heat wave going on. She left our house extremely clean, and even did nice little things like turning our ficus slightly so it looked better than when we left it. She was always professional and I would like to use her in the future!

Kaley took such good care of Moon while we were out of town. She shared regular updates and was so respectful of our space while we were away. We came back to a happy pup and were relaxed throughout the trip. She also paid attention to all specific instructions related to the places Moon isn't allowed in the house, which was such a relief and handled Moon's quirky behavior with wearing a leash like such a pro. We would highly recommend her!

We have never left our indoor/outdoor fur-babies in the care of a stranger, so meeting somebody on Rover was definitely a bit of a nerve-racking experience. Edith asked really thoughtful questions, even stuff that we hadn’t considered putting in our five page kitty care guide. While we were traveling, we received really sweet photos of our cats and Edith did a great job checking in and letting us know when the cats were in the house or when they left. We appreciated how even the simplest question like - “do you have a specific sponge that you use to wash the cat bowls?” gave us the feeling that our cats and our home were being looked after with the utmost care As soon as we got home, we received ridiculously adorable report cards for each of our cats and laughed at the insightfulness of our cats’ differing personalities. We immediately gave recommendations for Edith as a pet/house sitter to three of our close friends who also have beloved kitties. We absolutely recommend her services & hope she still has time for us & our fur-babies when she becomes famous.

Sarah is so personable and sweet. I chose her because she seemed really compassionate towards older doggies. I felt bad because my doggies have so many supplements and medications. Easy to communicate with and just a very overall nice calm energy about her😁

I can’t recommend Janesta highly enough as a dog sitter! My yorkie, Scotty, is a low-key pup (post zoomies) who absolutely adores humans and lives for cuddles, and attention. Janesta was the perfect match for him, and I couldn’t be happier with the care they provided. From the moment they met Scotty, it was clear they understood his mellow personality and need for affection. Scotty warmed up to them immediately, after being seduced by excellent behind the ear rubs. Janesta made sure he got all the snuggles and love he could possibly want, while also keeping him comfortable and content during the day. What really stood out was the way Janesta connected with Scotty. He drinks up their head and nose kisses and being babied by them. They kept me updated with sweet photos of him lounging around and gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. If you’re looking for a sitter who will shower your pup with love and treat them like family, Janesta is the one to call. Scotty and I are so lucky to have found them!

Christine has sat for Disco twice and has always been super communicative and caring for my little guy! She sends tons of photos and I know he's in good hands when I'm away. I was on a camping trip with no cell phone service and I didn't worry at all leaving him with Christine.

Katie was amazing with my dogs. One had had a dental 24 hours before and needed supervision and meds. She was also with them over 4th of July, and as you other dog pawrents know, it’s a scary time to be away from your pups. After meeting Katie briefly prior to the visit I felt so safe leaving them in her care. She left the place clean and well taken care of. Kind, conscientious, trustworthy and fabulous with dogs!

Aman was great house sitting our dog. It was our first time using Rover and I created some confusion but he was very gracious and helpful. Sent plenty of photos and was very communicative as we had a few unexpected packages show up. Even offered to was some dishes we’d left behind! Oh and our dog loved him. Wouldn’t hesitate to use him again!

There aren’t enough words to express just how attentive and amazing Quishu is: Positive, dynamic personality with an ability to get zen when needed. She’s the kind of personality our beagles need. She followed all our doggie care and home instructions, it was such peace of mind. She sent frequent photos and videos which showed us that our adopted and often timid beagles trusted her, felt safe with her and were actually being their true goof ball selves. Most sitters think they’ll try to “fix” their issues which never works and creates a tense dynamic, but Qishu didn’t appear to judge us for all our instructions and expectations. She respected our requested level of care and the beagles and her bonded. Thank you Qishu!!

Meshaal was a wonderful dog and house sitter! He has a calm demeanor and is very professional. He took excellent care of our senior dog who has some health needs and took care of all his medications with no issues. He also promptly responded to all our check in messages. Our dog loved Meshaal and and was crying when he left! Meshaal also left our house better than we left it. Looking forward to rebooking with Meshaal again in the future. Would definitely recommend Meshaal to others!
