“Madison is fantastic! She took such good care of my pack! She made sure everyone ate, even though my Andy is scared to eat around people he isn’t very familiar with!! I will have Madison watch my boys every time we need a sitter!! Plus she left the house in immaculate shape - I couldn’t tell she was here!!”
“Highly recommend Shyla. Just as everyone else stated, she provides many many updates and ensures that she keeps you, the owner as comfortable as the fur baby. Georgie was well loved during our week away. I would definitely hire her again-no reservations. Thank you Shyla!”
“Bale recently watched our dog during a long weekend away. We came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Bale gave us plenty of updates and photos while we were away, which gave us peace of mind that our dog was happy and in good hands.”
“Stone was fabulous! She watched my dog and cat (house sitting) while I was away for 4 days. She is punctual and reliable and she communicated with me throughout my vacation to keep me informed. She also did a wonderful job meeting my fear-reactive dog. She was patient and calm and gave her time to get comfortable with her and now my pup adores her!! I highly recommend Stone for pet sitting, house sitting, or pet walking!”
“I know Laura as Rene and they did an amazing job watching our husky Luna while we were on a cruise! We expected to have cell and Wi-Fi reception for the duration of our trip but as it turns out we did not. That didn’t phase Rene as they still sent us photos and updates throughout and was able to keep Luna calm during 4th of July fireworks. Rene is a super sitter and we will definitely be using them again. Luna can’t wait for more either”
“Anika was amazing for a long weekend with our senior cat! She was so friendly and communicative and we came home to a tidy house and a very happy kitty. She handled his medications no problem and was just overall lovely to work with - I highly recommend her services. Thank you for the great care and peace of mind, Anika!”
“Milena is wonderful! She stayed at my home with my Golden for several nights while out of town for a wedding. She was very responsive, and left the house in better shape than when I left. She took him for walks and for a swim. Most of all, my pup loved her! I would certainly book with her again!”
“Recently went on vacation and had the privilege of having Paulina available and booked for housesitting. She is wonderful with our pup and kitties. Paulina is also dependable and great at communicating updates and photos daily, which eased my mind. She showed our pets lots of love in our absence. I truly believe that our fur babies were in the best hands.”
“Excellent! Kept me updated with pics and used my Louie 101 note that has all of his info, commands, and routine. Very professional and my dog had an amazing time! Will book again”
“Daryia is the sweetest person ever!! She was amazing with our sweet dog and took such good care of him. Our dog is older and has a few heath issues and Daryia put so much thought and care into making sure he was okay. I can’t recommend Daryia enough!!”
“Jeanine was a wonderful house sitter for my 3.5 year old dog and 6 year old kitty! Jeanine updated me with photos daily, maintained animal schedule, and was easy to communicate with. I’d hire Jeanine again in a heartbeat, and recommend her to anyone looking for reliable care for their home and pets. Thank you Jeanine!”
“Malia did a great job watching our pups while we were away for the weekend. Sloan is usually very afraid of new people but he warmed up to her immediately. We recommend her!”
“Great experience on pet sitting. Excellent communication, sending pictures from their time together was a great touch, overall good experience and would definitely use again/recommend”

About: Taking leisurely strolls with the pups while ensuring they're leashed up and needs are maintained is of great importance to me. I'm patient with dogs that enjoy sniffing and taking in the scenery. Your furry friends will be loved and played with and compassionately cared for. My current availability is Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday while I attend classes at BTC. The schedule will vary per quarter as I attend classes and will be regularly maintained to reflect my availability. Carefully listening to and following the owners instructions (you know your pet best). I will keep you updated on how your fur baby is doing with images and texts. Treating your pets with the same love and care that I give mine.
About: Losing my 11-year-old Doberdane to old age was super hard—giant breeds really don’t get to stay with us long enough. I’m not quite ready to bring another dog into my life just yet, but I really miss having that furry companionship. A friend recently told me about this app, and it sounded like the perfect win-win! You get a reliable, caring, and trustworthy person to look after your pet while you’re away (so you can relax without worry), and I get to spend time with a four-legged friend—which is something I’ve been missing a lot. Sounds like a pretty great deal, right? I do work remotely, so if your pup is a big barker or tends to make a lot of noise, I might not be the best fit. But if you’re looking for someone responsible and experienced, I’d love to help! Oh, and fun bonus—I have a background in construction! So if you’ve been putting off a small home project, I’d be happy to tackle that while you’re away too. Looking forward to hearing from you and hopefully getting to hang out with your furry friend! Since I work from home, I have a lot of flexibility. I can work walks and meals into the day however necessary. Physical exercise is extremely important to me, so I usually work out an 1-2 daily, but can move that around in my day as needed. I am currently renting my home and can’t host pets at my place. So, keeping the pet as close to their normal routine while you are away is what I find most important. If you give me detailed instructions on what is needed, I find that the following those instructions to be best for everyone.

Gabriel P.
“Gabe has, on several occasions, provided exemplary dog sitting for me, both day care and for extended periods. Gabe is conscientious, attentive, safety conscious, and caring while still observing my request that he not succumb to “Diamond’s” accomplished begging skills. Gabe truly enjoys caring for my dog and is always my “go to” for dog care. Most importantly, he is Diamond approved!”
Nelson E.
“We have trusted Nelson with our dog Finn many times and have complete confidence in his ability to not only take care of Finn’s basic needs but also give him love, good exercise, and friendly companionship. As a rescue Finn is weary of men, but took to Nelson right away as he has a calm energy that animals (and people) immediately sense. Nelson is a clear and timely communicator, responsible, and very trustworthy. We highly recommend him to anyone who needs their loved ones cared for!”

Eliot was SO wonderful with our 2 large dogs. It was obvious he really cared. He took them in extra walks, gave them lots of cuddles, and made them comfortable while we were away from them for a whole week. Very communicative and respectful and as an added bonus left the house very clean. Hope we can have him over again! Highly recommend Eliot!
Lauren took such good care of my beagle and two cats. Left my home clean and was super responsive to all of my messages. It felt good knowing my babies were so loved and cared for while we were gone for nearly a week. I will not hesitate to work with Lauren again!!
Mikayla was very good with my senior cat (100+ in human years!). He was not at all upset when I returned home-which he often is when I leave him- and seemed quite content. She gave him his medicine on time and sent pictures along as well. Made my trip all the better. Thank you Mikayla!
Kennedy was very kind and treated our dogs like princesses. She followed all instructions and we came home to our dogs looking healthier and happier than when we left them. She sent us pictures and gave us updates. Looking forward to having her watch our dogs again
Madison is an excellent sitter! She stayed at our home for 7 days with our two very large and excitable dogs. This is the longest we have ever been away from them in the almost 9 years we’ve had them. We were very anxious as these dogs are our children. Madison was thorough and went above and beyond to make sure that us and our boys had a good experience. She did brushing, gave medication and helped them brush up on some of their training skills. The boys loved her, and her updates gave us great peace of mind. She left our house very tidy, and was considerate of our space. This was my first experience with rover, and Madison knocked it out of the park. Tucker and Toby can’t wait to have her back next time. 100/10 recommend Madison for your furry friends. ❤️
Alexcia was great with my 1 year old mini dachshund Jiggy. This was my first long trip since having him, and she really helped keep my mind at ease. I'd highly recommend Alexcia for any housesitting/dogsitting needs. It was definitely not easy for her! I truly appreciate coming home to a happy, healthy dog and a clean home.
