“Katie did a great job watching Chloe at her place while I was away on vacation! She sent multiple pictures everyday which was so nice for my peace of mind and I could relax knowing Chloe was having a blast. I would definitely recommend Katie for your dog sitting needs!”


2. Kerry W.

“Very pleased! This was our first time using a Petsitter outside of our family/friends and we couldn’t have been more impressed. I know our pup was in super hands. Very appreciative of Kerry’s updates, and we could tell that Riggs felt comfortable and happy the whole time we were away. Kerry is wonderful!”

“*Highly recommend* ~ Nikki has been *amazing*! I’m a first-time user of Rover, and she was *super* flex with all of my crazy travel delays, and adapted to the evolving logistics in real time, including adding another pet to care for and time changes! *Thank you* Nikki!”


7. Kathryn F.

“We felt so comfortable with our dogs in Kathryn's care. She gave us a daily update and promptly responded when we had any inquiries. Her huge yard and lovely neighborhood were great for peaceful walks and plenty of running around. Her dog Zsa Zsa is a wonderful ambassador for their home too, she was very chill with our dogs! They were happy to see us, but definitely sad to leave!”


8. Journey D.

“Hey Journey Thanks for taking such good care of Pickles. She wasn't as anxious as usual when I picked her up. I appreciate all the feedback and pictures. And all the walks, which is Pickles’ favorite activity. It was fun for her to have your dog as company.”


9. Russ B.

“Russ and Andi LOVE dogs and it shows. Thank you for the pictures and video -- I used to think that was for helicopter parents, but they really did put my mind at ease while I was away!”


10. Luciana V.

“Luciana was amazing! She took great care of our pup while we were away Thanksgiving week. She was very professional, communicative, and most importantly caring to our dog!”

16. Asia M.

“Very flexible and accommodating, Asia is a great person to coordinate with and she’s great at taking care of your dog and sending regular pup-dates”


17. Angelito V.

“I am so happy that Angelito took care of my Ruby. I was reassured she was in good hands and could tell that she had a good time. I would definitely leave Ruby with him again.”


18. Fnu & Eric S.

“Left us daily or every other day picture updates. Due to her neighborhood restrictions, she has to pick up and drop off the dog, in which cases can be convenient for most people. From what I could see her dogs were well trained which is a good sign to see in your sitter.”


19. Christine J.

“Christine watched Miso for the first time for a night so I could celebrate my birthday. Communication was great before and during my dog's time there. I appreciated Christine being flexible with my inconsistent plans for pick up and drop off. I also very much appreciated that Miso was returned to me tired from playing so much hahaha... Was able to have a calm day after lots of celebrating!”


20. Kruti and Aaron P.

“Kruti and Aaron were amazing with my doggo. My dog isn’t the easiest pup in the universe and they were totally willing to work with us both and provide the specific accommodations that she needed. Additionally, Kruti and Aaron were very communicative and easy to work with and my little lady seemed happy and at easy when I picked her up.”
