1. Judy K.
“I am new to the Blue Ridge area and had been spoiled rotten by my regular dog sitter back in Arizona. But I have to say Judy has become my new sitter with whom my dogs get spoiled rotten. She is very attentive. Received daily updates and pictures regularly (2-3 times a day). Anytime she had a question just asked. Watered my plants, and even did the sheets and towels before we got home. The dogs were very happy with her both through activities outside and her attentiveness while staying in our home. One of our pups had a bit of a limp and she helped us try to care for her until we were home. Found out once home she now has arthritis. But Judy was there taking full care of our dogs. I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
2. Jesse H.
“Jesse was an incredible sitter for our 18 year old Chihuahua with daily Medication needs!! It was Rocco’s first Rover experience and when we came home from date night, Rocco was CALM, rested and HAPPY. :) He’s a VERY VERY PICKY CUSTOMER so JESSE made this worried Dog Mama Very RELIEVED and Thankful! We Will BOOK AGAIN!”
3. Sherri S.
“Sherri did a wonderful job taking care of my babies. She sent frequent updates WITH pictures showing me that everyone was eating, playing outside, and relaxing. I saw no stress with any of them. Sherri was always on time and she made it easy for me to feel confident in her skills even with short notice for this job and my newness to using Rover. She left the house even cleaner than it was to begin with! I am so happy to know there’s someone who can come and stay with my older pets if I need it and they can remain in their own home in comfort and with less stress than being put in a kennel. This is the service I’ve been looking for in this area, and Sherri’s care is worth every penny of the cost. Thank you! I would highly recommend!”
4. Ben T.
“Ben’s service to our dog and our family was top-notch. He was prompt for the meet and greet meeting, he messaged ahead on the day of the booking to see if there was anything that needed changed. He went above and beyond with watching our dog: taking her for a walk and playtime in the backyard. He texted us photos and even a concern about a skin blemish with our dog. He cleaned up very well after himself, even laundering our guest bedroom bedding. We recommend his services to anyone who has need. And we will definitely be booking him again.”
5. Deanna W.
“Deanna was great. Treated our pets with love, made sure they had everything they needed while we were away, and provided regular updates, which put us at ease. When we returned, our pets were happy!”
6. Sarah K.
“Great communication, daily pictures and updates on my girl! Would 100% use Sarah again!”
7. Caitlyn S.
About: I have 2 miniature Weiner dogs at home and I'm very intentive to their care and fragile backs! I believe dogs should be treated like us! Loved and cared for! Yes! I work sometimes at legacy and come home to my two dogs and start my daily routine with them right when I get home! I take my dogs for a walk in the morning when I get up and as well as before bedtime so they get their potty time.

9. Shannon C.
“Shannon did an amazing job house sitting with my baby boy Bogie. She was on time, communicative throughout the stay, asked questions, and took care of Bogie and our home like it was hers. She’s friendly and very easy going! I will definitely be booking her in the future! Thank you auntie Shannon for being so good with Bogie!”
10. Donald N.
“Don, and I, have done well over twenty, 5 star, house sits with Trusted House Sitters for over two years. He/we have a 5 star rating from all pet sits and would gladly direct you to our reviews for you to read. Don is so good with all ages, and breeds, of dogs. He has sat every type from dachshund, to pit bull, to great pyranese. He is also very good with all types of hobby farm animals. He just finished a sit with two senior dogs, with medial wound bandage changing involved, and is so kind and gentle with the senior dogs. Every sit we do have multiple photos of the dogs lying all over him whenever he sits down. Your dog, of any kind, will not be disappointed to spend time with him.”
11. Christa N.
“Christa is absolutely wonderful! She stayed at my home to pet sit for my dog, Pearl, who is relatively particular, and Pearl warmed to Christa very quickly. Christa is an excellent communicator, attentive to detail, organized, and a generally pleasant, kind, compassionate, and considerate individual. I felt very comfortable knowing that Christa was caring for my dog in my home. I recommendation Christa without hesitation! Thank you, Christa! You are the best!”
12. Eva L.
“Kathy is the ultimate dog lover. She takes great care of dogs and provides peace of mind to the owners. She will go above and beyond and do all that the owner requests. She's adept at providing medication if needed and any special food or treats. She handles any dogs in her care as if they are her own. She's also very reliable and trustworthy.”
13. leah p.
“Gabby and Baylee had a wonderful stay with Leah at our home while we were away for a family event. Leah kept us updated with their activities and went the extra mile to make sure "the girls" were happy and in their normal routines of play time, nap time, meal time & bed time. We will absolutely use her again to house sit our pups and for drop in visits. Thank you Leah. P.S. Monday morning Baylee went over to the guest room door and sat down waiting for Leah to come out to play!! That's a real pup satisfaction review!”

18. Ruby G.
About: I enjoy dogs. I have had boxers, pit bulls, beagles, and a Belgian Malinois. Can help with basic commands. I also help a close friend with her dogs. I am currently staying at home and plan to start an animal behavior program soon. Learning more about dogs and their behaviors is interesting to me! I don’t have a fenced yard but I don’t allow my dog outside unsupervised. For walks, we always go on lease. My driveway is long and my pup loves to walk and run!
19. Lyndsey D.
About: I have over 7 years of experience working with Dogs. I own a dog grooming business so I am home full time. Our house is a doggie play ground. We have two babies of our own. When I am with your sweet baby they will feel at home. They will get plenty of exercise and be well rubbed. I love to take the pups hiking or down to the river to get exercise. I am available throughout the day due to my flexible schedule. Let me know what you need and I can most likely make sure it happens. If you are in need of something quick like a check up so your baby doesn’t get lonely or someone to watch them while your gone, I’m your girl. I will make sure your fur baby is happy!!
