“From the moment Ripley & Julia met, my active Aussie was at ease with her and excited to play. After a few solo walks together, I felt very confident inviting to Julia to stay in my home and look after the little fuzzball. Julia has consistently been a mature & excellent communicator, who asked mindful, insightful questions about Ripley & the home throughout the process. I look forward to entrusting her with Ripley's care again in the future - and would endorse her to anyone else looking for someone to take good, kind care of their pupper.”

“Robert is the absolute best dog sitter. He’s a true dog lover and animal lover. He’s conscientious with our two elders and attends to their special needs. He gives us frequent updates so we feel at peace while we are traveling. He takes great care of our home and we are so grateful to have a sitter we can trust with our beloved doggies!”

“Nimisha did an amazing job taking care of my cat Riker! She was flexible in finding a time for us to meet, and Riker warmed up to her right away. While I was away, she was incredibly communicative, and sent me lots of photos of them together so I didn't worry about him for a moment. I was completely trusting and happy to have her staying in my home, which she left spotless. I will definitely be hiring Nimisha again in the future!”

“Emilie was absolutely beyond amazing with our girl while we were away for over 2weeks. Our kitty has been with us for 5years now and only 6weeks before our trip we transitioned her fully indoors. Emilie stayed at our place with her while we were on vacation and she helped kitty with the transition so much she no longer asks to go outside. We recieved texts and photos of our girl daily which really set us at ease on our much needed break. Cannot thank Emilie enough for how happy our kitty was when we got back and am hoping she is available for our trip 😊”

“Sheryl was so lovely! She was patient, gentle, and thoughtful with my girl. She took the time to get to know her and learn her routines. Her communication was excellent and I look forward to having her back in the future!”

“Kami took great care of my Sheena with lots of cuddles. I got back to a clean home - she vacuumed, cleaned the floors, took out the garbage, and washed the bed sheets - a nice surprise that was well appreciated after two long flights to get home. I also got lots of pictures.”

“Melissa and her husband were great! They tended to all of Flynn’s needs and we very professional, sending daily updates of the fun they had. Would definitely recommend them!”

“Mariia and Vini were fantastic! They took great care of our dog, Buckley, making time to get to know him in advance - this meant a lot to us. They provided lots of updates, were responsive to our questions, and treated our home very respectfully while we were away for 2 weeks. Would definitely book them again.”

“Yichun was extremely amazing and went above and beyond with Minky, the kitty. Yichun was professional, caring, wonderful, amazing, and exceeded all expectations. Yichun reached out prior to the booking to learn about Minky, her needs, and her routine. On the 1st day she was prompt and arrived prior to the start time, which was a sign of how amazing she is. Minky had the best time with Yichun while I was away, and received so much attention and brushy time (her favourite). Minky was extremely well care for while away, and I was able to relax and not have any worries about my kitty being in her care. Yichun exceeded the expectations by sending a ton of updates and images, and for the amount of time she spent playing and hanging with Minky. I would highly recommend Yichun to anyone looking for longterm pet sitting and she will be a repeat sitter for Minky anytime I go away, which is perfect. Thank you Yichun for being wonderful and the amount of care and time you provided for Minky.”

“Charlotte and Sam are the best! They take such great care of our girl Ollie who has reactive tendencies and they leave our place cleaner than they found it! They are our go tos when we need to travel without Ollie. Thank you!!”

“Nellie was awesome with Zoe my elderly cat! She kept her company all day, took excellent care of her food, medicine requirements and grooming each day. Nellie was very good at keeping me updated with Zoe daily and sent pictures and videos to help keep me at ease! Thank you so much Nellie!”

“Jeanine was great -- I'm already looking forward to having her house-sit and cat-sit again! I have two very senior cats that can be quite shy. It was so reassuring to get updates and photos of the cats being social with Jeanine and Alex. Communication was always prompt and we came home to a spotless house. Highly recommend!”

“Anna and Vladimir are amazing. Our special needs dog loves then and we know he is safe, cared for and much loved when he is in their care. They keep our place tidy when homesitting, and even cleaber than they got it. We are very happy repeat customers.”

About: I grew up with 4 different dogs in Mexico. The last dog I had with me, Nala, was too crazy so we hired a dog trainer that taught us some cool tricks to make her behave better! After this I started dog walking during the pandemic as a full time job(: Spending time with animals is healing in a way, sometimes just hanging out with my cat or my fish makes a difference in my day! I like to go on runs in the morning every other day and I love going for walks I try to give them all the attention they want, play and chill are equally important. Its very important to me that the pets stay healthy both mentally and physically so a little workout and sometimes a little mind work with them is great
“Saelin was great for our 8 month old - he so enjoyed his walks with her, the playtime and of course, his naps! She has a really nice way with a puppy who's out to explore the world!”


“Marta was conscientious, kind and communicative. Our dogs were well cared for, fed, loved and walked. The dogs were very relaxed when we arrived home and our house was very well cared for also. Highly recommend Marta!”

Isobel was great! I would highly recommend her. She was communicative and responsible. Our dog was sad to see her leave! This is the first time in over five years that he has had a dog sitter for a week. I’m very grateful that we chose Isobel. The house was in great shape and so was our dog. All the best Isobel, we will definitely use your services again if required. Thank you!
Julia was amazing with the girls. I had unfortunately entered the wrong address, and she still offered to bike to our new location. This was not expected as it was my mistake, but it was very appreciated. She did a great job keeping our anxious dogs distracted and we would ask her to watch the dogs again ❤️

Diana was an excellent sitter for Cosmo. She was very receptive to my instructions and always attentive to his needs, and took great care of him. I received several photos and videos while she was spending time with him, which was reassuring. I am very happy with the job she did and I can recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter.

Marta was my first introduction to using Rover and it was a great experience! Marta stayed with our bossy senior chihuahua while we were out of town. Every morning she let us know that our little old lady was doing well, with photos and messages - which helped make the trip even more enjoyable knowing our girl was in good hands. I highly recommend Marta as a dog sitter, she not only took on our seniors weird little quirks but also brought a great calming energy. 10/10 - will book again! ❤️

Angel was a wonderful dog sitter, and we’re very happy with her care. She took our dogs to the park, walked and played with them, and kept our home clean during her stay. She was very attentive and kept us updated every day, which gave us peace of mind. During the second week, our Frenchies had some health issues, and Angel really went above and beyond— got woken up early to clean up and make sure they were comfortable. She kept us informed and asked thoughtful questions to take the best care of them. We highly recommend Angel. She is caring, reliable, and we would happily trust her with our dogs again.

Nadiia took such thoughtful and attentive care of my older dog, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly patient, understanding her needs and moving at her pace without ever rushing her. I really appreciated the updates and the genuine care she showed, it was clear she treated her like her own. I would absolutely trust Nadiia again and highly recommend her to anyone.

Melissa and Gabriel take such great care of our dog, Luna! They send pictures every day, are quick to respond, and showed our dog so much love. She loves them! Melissa and Gabriel are also very clean house guests and we so appreciate the care they show our home when staying with our dog. Thanks again!
