“When we read Danielle's profile we knew she was the perfect match for our older dog. Danielle was always quick to reply, great with our dog, sent lots of pictures throughout, and kept us informed about how our dog was doing. We also appreciated that Danielle was willing to schedule some meet ups before our booking to get to know our dog, and let our dog get to know her. We booked Danielle to stay overnight, and our house was exactly as we left it. We cannot say enough good things about Danielle, except that we will definitely book her again in the future”


“Jordan went above and beyond as a dogsitter at our house! She was so great with communication, we did not have to worry about anything. We returned to our house even cleaner than how we left it. I would recommend Jordan to anyone, and I definitely hope she is available next time we need a sitter!!”


“James was amazing! He took amazing care of our tiny dachshund and senior hound who have such different needs (as well as our house) while we were gone for 9 days. He sent wonderful updates and pics each day. Will absolutely book again!”


“Mary took fantastic care of our two dogs for 8 days - she sent pictures and updates often, and was quick to respond to any messages we sent her way. We would be happy to have her petsit again in the future!”


“Max and Nyka loved their time with Ava! She was an excellent house sitter while we were out of town. Sent lots of pictures and videos so we could check in on our precious fur babies. Max and Nyka (and myself) would definitely recommend Ava!”


“Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our doodle Henry. He loved having her and she really took great care of him. He had walks and playtime and she sent frequent pictures showing us how much fun Henry was having. I was completely at ease knowing she was at our house with him. She also left the house impeccable. We highly recommend her!!!”


“Samantha stayed at my apartment for a week to take care of my dog and cat. She was very responsive, gave updates and pictures throughout her stay, and left everything in perfect condition. I would definitely book her again!”


“Dakota, this review is written also as my gratitude. Thank you again for all your time and attention to my dogs for such a very long time (12 days!). They were content and happy when I got back. And the house was spotless! (You didn’t have to clean up!) I felt safe leaving them with you and deeply appreciated your daily updates and photos. I hope you and Spam would be willing to help us out again in the future 😊!!”


“Cailyn did great with our big bully breeds. She stayed at our house and did a great job of communicating and taking care of things. Would recommend!!”


“Our experience with Christian was amazing! Christian house sat for us and our anxious dog and cared for the house and our dog so well. Christian sent consistent updates and went above and beyond. We will definitely use Christian for house sitting again!!”


“Mackenzie is super helpful and responsible for our puppy while we were away for a music festival. In addition to being a great caretaker of our dog, she is easy to communicate with and did a good job providing updates about our puppy. It is our first time using Rover and we are glad it worked out. So thank you so much Mackenzie and we would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs good care for their dogs.”


“Victoria is the best. We went away for a destination family wedding and had to leave our two beautiful babies behind for a long weekend. We were very nervous to leave them with anyone new, as we’d just had friends and family watch them previously, and we found Victoria and everything seemed like it would work out perfect! Until we left… and one of our dogs got sick. Victoria truly went above and beyond for our sick pupper, we usually would’ve come straight back but I was in the wedding party and we were quite far! She communicated with us every step of the way, took our baby to the vet to get some meds to feel better, and gave our girls so much love. Victoria, words can’t even begin to thank you for everything you did for us, from loving our pups to cleaning up after so so so many accidents. Thank you ❤️ we highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care that is attentive, loving, and communicative.”


“One of our dogs is getting older, and can be a bit of a stress case with being left places when we are out of town. So, we decided to call LaTrice and have her come stay at our house. When we got home, the dogs were relaxed and happy. We'll definitely book LaTrice again. Thank you LaTrice!!”


“Zach took wonderful care of our home and dog while we were out of town. Harlow was spoiled with so many snuggles and quality time. We hope to have him stay again in the future. Thank you, Zach!”


“Andrew took great care of our dog and our home. He kept us updated on how she was doing and spoiled her with lots of walks!”


“Julia was a great help with our dog Champ and took good care of our home while we were away. She was responsive and easy to work with, and kept us updated throughout. An ideal stay from our perspective and our dog's as well.”


“Kala did a fantastic job housesitting our three pets simultaneously. Two of our pets had medicine routines that Kala was able to follow without issue and thanks to her strength training background she had no issue carrying our Frenchy down the stairs on a regular basis. She was kind, sweet, full of common sense and responsible. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her help us again in the future. Book with confidence!”


About: I have a cat and a dog of my own and have pet sat for family friends multiple times. I’ve cared for multiple cats, elderly and sick dogs, and playful puppies. I have also volunteered at the RSPCA and the CASPCA, mostly caring for and fostering cats but I have also done dog feeding and walking shifts. I love all pets and since I’m a student away from my pets at home I’d love to take care of some animals! I’m also aware that as you are away from your pets you will want to come home to a clean home that looks better than you left it, so I try to prioritize taking care of the owner’s home while I’m house sitting! I’d be happy to house sit with pets or do drop-in visits as needed! Let me know how to best care for your pets, my job is to accommodate them as best I can while you are away! My priority is to take care of your pets the way that you see fit for them. My dog and cat are very accustomed to their own schedules, so I understand how important their routines are! At home, I feed my dog twice a day and I feed my cat whenever he asks :). My dog likes to go out at least 3 times a day, but as she has gotten older she has needed more frequent bathroom breaks. I understand dogs have more strict schedules and I’m happy to abide by whatever works for them!

“Stef provided exceptional care for our pets while we were away, leaving us totally able to relax and focus on our travels. Her evident love for animals shone through in her attentive and professional approach, which included sending regular updates and photos. We returned home to happy animals and a clean house! I appreciate that she spent so much time with our furry family members and made sure they were comfortable and happy. If you need someone reliable and caring to watch your pets and your house, I can’t recommend her enough!!”


“Sarah was absolutely amazing. She took such great care of our two basset hounds while we were away, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent tons of photos every single day, which made us feel so connected and reassured the whole time we were gone. Even though it rained the entire week, she still made sure they got plenty of walks and exercise. There was even a tornado warning during the week, and she made sure the dogs were safe and cared for through it all. Our boys can be super stubborn, but she handled them with such confidence and care that they actually listened and followed her lead. That’s not easy with bassets. She gave them so much attention and love, and it was clear how much effort she put into making sure they were happy and comfortable. Our dogs love being outside, and she made sure they had plenty of time to enjoy the fresh air during the day, even with the unpredictable weather. She was also incredibly attentive to our home and took great care of our flowers and plants on the patio. She paid so much attention to detail in every aspect of her stay. We came home to two relaxed, happy dogs and a house that looked great. Sarah went above and beyond in every single way and we are so grateful. She exceeded all of our expectations and sets the standard for what a polite, respectful, professional, and compassionate pet sitter should be. Truly one of the best sitters we’ve ever had.”
