Nasrin was fantastic with my dog, Stella! She was sweet, caring, and kept me updated with photos and videos throughout my trip, which I loved. Stella clearly had a wonderful time with her. Nasrin was also incredibly accommodating when my travel plans were delayed because of weather. I would absolutely trust her with Stella again and highly recommend her! 🐾💕

Claire took incredible care of our dog Cooper while we were away on vacation. We could tell he was well taken care of, with lots of exercise and love!

Sunny took care of my dog for 2 days. Previous to Sunny taking care of my dog the only people who have taken care of my dog have been family and friends my dog had already been acquainted with so I was a little nervous about leaving her with a stranger. From the beginning at the meet & greet I found Sunny friendly, calm & a good communicator so I felt at ease leaving Skyy with her. Sunny stayed in contact with me updating me about my dog & providing lots of photos. My neighbours were also very impressed with her after meeting her on dog walks and wanted information on where I found her in case they need a pet sitter. I highly recommend Sunny and will book again if I need a sitter. Thanks Sunny!!

About: I have taken care of dogs starting with my puppy about 15 years ago. Kilo was a puppy rottweiler and I rescued him from a potential life of dog fighting. From that day on Kilo was my best friend and companion in everything from work, to school, and home. I learned a lot from my time with Kilo about proper training and pet care, as well as the patience it takes to be a caring sitter. After Kilo I helped my sisters with training and exercising their big dogs (Pitty, and Husky) as well as attending therapy dog training with my partners 2 dogs (Havanese). I am comfortable with administering oral and topical medications, and know about various training and developmental theories for dogs. I cannot wait to meet your and your pets! I am currently working freelance and I have a lot of free time to spend with your wonderful pets. When I do have a gig I am generally only out of the house for 5-6 hours max. I will follow all your routines and guidelines as stated, while also making sure to tire them out so they dont have any anxiety while you're gone.

We had a fantastic first experience using Rover! We were fortunate that Angelina was available to us on short notice. She was took wonderful care of our dogs and was incredibly communicative. She kept us updated with photos throughout the stay, which gave us such peace of mind. Our older dog has anxiety issues and Angelina was patient and calm with her and both dogs seem to take to her right away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Debbie took such great care of our anxious little spaniel, and totally won him over too. She sent us great detailed updates with photos each day, and it was clear how much care and attention she paid to him while we were gone. She handled giving him medications and 4 walks a day, and was able to be with him the whole time. It was nerve-racking setting our dog up with a stranger for the first time, but it's clear Debbie adores animals. We're so glad we picked her! She also left our apartment so clean and even did laundry and made the bed, which was totally unexpected and lovely of her. We would totally book Debbie again!

We had the pleasure of having Cara look after our dog, Finn, and she was absolutely wonderful! She kept us updated every day with photos and messages, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Finn looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. On top of that, we came home to a spotless house, Cara even went the extra mile and washed the linens. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful dog sitter. She truly treats your fur baby like her own!

Yammie was an absolutely fantastic sitter for our cats. She stayed in our home for 2 weeks and instantly formed a strong bond with our two kitties. Her communication was prompt and professional, she kept our home neat and tidy, and she sent us multiple photos and videos of our cats everyday. We would recommend her services to anyone and will absolutely be contacting her every time we go out of town!

Ema and Cindy exceeded all expectations and helped us out with dog sitting, when our other sitter had to cancel at the last minute. Our dog doesn’t seem to like everyone, but she really liked them! They are super friendly, caring, and left our home very clean and tidy. Communication and pictures were sent frequently. Thank you for taking such good care of Kala and taking the stress away, so we could enjoy our trip!

We highly recommend Dionys for any of your pet sitting needs. Our dog, Whisky, has separation anxiety and Whisky felt really comfortable with Dionys. Dionys sent us photos of Whisky and Dionys snuggling on the couch and taking walks. We loved seeing that Whisky was comfortable with Dionys. Dionys went above our expectations and spent lots of time with Whisky. We will definitely use her again when we are out of town and unable to take Whisky with us.

Jaida was absolutely wonderful with Akela while I was away on vacation. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Akela was in such good hands. Jaida was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared about making sure Akela was happy and comfortable the entire time. When I returned, Akela was calm and well cared for, and it was obvious she had been treated with lots of love and attention. My apartment was also left clean and tidy, which I really appreciated after traveling. I would highly recommend Jaida to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. I would happily book with her again.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Karla. From the very beginning, her communication was excellent—she kept me consistently updated with messages, photos, and little details that really put my mind at ease while I was away. What truly stood out was how genuine Karla’a care was. It wasn’t just a service to her—you could clearly see that she truly loves and understands dogs. My pup was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned, which says everything. I’ve used professional dog sitters in the past, but she went completely above and beyond anything I’ve experienced before. Her attentiveness, reliability, and warmth made all the difference. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust with their pet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! Thank you Karla 🤗

Spoorthi is an amazing sitter! My cat is shy and always uncomfortable with strangers. With Spoorthi, he warmed up quickly and was very happy. He is also a very high maintenance cat and spoorthi followed all care instructions with great attention to detail. She also promptly sent pictures with updates regularly. Needless to say, I was at peace during my vacation. I would highly recommend her for pet sitting.
