1. Jennifer M.
“Jennifer stayed at my house to watch my very anxious dog baby. She got the best photos of him. My little Cheech boy did very good and cannot wait for Jennifer to help us again.”
2. Miranda L.
“There are not enough good things to say about Miranda, and if I could give more than 5 stars I would. We originally booked her 3 months before our vacation to watch our rough collie Vinny. She came over a few times to see him, so he could get used to her. When we left for our 7 day vacation, Miranda stayed at our house and took care of Vinny while we were gone. Miranda is caring, has an obvious love for animals and made if feel as if a family member was caring for Vinny. She took him on daily walks, gave us updates about how we was doing and also watched over our house so we could have a peaceful and restful vacation. We will most definitely be using her going forward, what a blessing she was for us!”
3. Saren C.
“Saren is everything you would want in a dog sitter. She is responsible, good with dogs, good with communications, and very easy to work with. We could not have been happier with the week she spent with our dog.”
4. Athena S.
“Athena looked after our cat and house for 2 weeks and we were so grateful to have her for such an extensive time. She is a wonderful communicator, followed all directions and took great care of our home and cat. She also went above and beyond by watering plants and preparing our house for our return! Would book her again in a heartbeat ☺️”
5. Meredith H.
“Meredith took great care of all of our animals. She messaged us to let us know that they were fed and that they were doing good. She also sent us a picture of our pups. Thank you so much.”
6. Elijah Gipe B.
“Aliyah knocked it out of the park!!!! I have an anxious girl who can be protective with some real "stranger danger" and was worried about finding a dog sitter who could form a bond with my girl to allow me to go out of town to visit relatives. Aliyah approached her in an unassuming demeanor and after a brief meet & greet, I was able to leave them alone to fetch ball and get to know each other. Aliyah agreed to make a 2nd trip to my house before I left town for a "test drive" to make sure things would go smoothly when I actually had to leave town. They formed a bond at that point and I left town a couple days later and my girl was wagging her tail & following Aliyah around on the first night. She cuddled up in bed with Aliyah and everything went AWESOME. She exceeded all expectations, I felt totally comfortable, and will definitely ask Aliyah to dogsit for me in the future. She sent me tons of pictures and stayed in regular contact with me throughout the stay. THANK YOU for giving me peace of mind and taking such good care of my timid anxious furbaby <3”
7. Reyna M.
“Reyna was wonderful to work with. She let us know her schedule prior to booking to make sure it would work with our dogs needs. She communicated on a regular basis on how our dog was doing. Our dog can be very anxious and difficult and Reyna handled her very well. We got lots of pictures while we were gone, which were great. Definitely will use Reyna again.”
8. Owen S.
“I hired Owen for the first time this summer while we went on vacation. Owen was through with questions about care. He kept us up to date on the cats. Sent great pictures and the cats were happy and healthy till when we came back. Our cats have a few health concerns and he was able to navigate giving meds to our kitties. Double checked on any symptoms. Overall he did a great job. He also house sat during the time and it was if he wasn’t there (cleaned up and made sure the trash went out!). Overall, highly recommend Owen for pet sitting.”
9. Emilia M.
“Emilia was so attentive, flexible and made me feel very confident that my dogs were I. Good hands while I was away. She left the house neat as a pin. Will definitely book her again!”
10. Alexander A.
“Alex and his wife took great care of our three pups and our home!”
11. Katherine P.
“Katherine is such a great pet sitter! She loves spending time with our dogs and they love her so much. She does plenty of walks and play sessions with our higher energy dog and regular cuddle sessions with our couch potato. She’s also great with their meds and handling their special needs as older dogs. She’s super responsible and kind. Your pets will love her!”
12. Jessica S.
“Jessica was great! My good boy Clifford was in great spirits when I got home. And she was very communicative and shared lots of pictures of him while I was gone. Would definitely highly recommend her!”
13. Bailey W.
“Bailey was awesome with my babies! (A dog and two cats!) She was super easy to communicate with and fast to respond. Didn’t hesitate to come for a meet and greet. Immediately loved her!! Super warm and personable. Didn’t worry one bit while I was away for a week. Left my house neat, clean, tidy and sent lots of pics!”
14. Shannon W.
“I've never known anyone who cares more about animals than Shannon does. They have been a pet owner since before I met them 14 years ago. I've seen them connect with dogs that like almost no one else. They have decades of experience caring for many animals, including petsitting for owners on vacation. I'd trust them to take care of any pet, knowing Shannon will give them the attention and love they deserve.”
15. Gloria & Herson L.
“Gloria watched our dog for several days at her home while we were out of town and did a great job with him. There were no issues at all! She sent us a photo and a text or two along the way to affirm he was doing well, and I knew he was being well loved and looked after. I couldn't have been happier and I'll definitely use her as a dog sitter again! Her and her husband are very sweet people.”
16. Alyson H.
“Alyson did absolutely great with my dog Louie. She’s definitely made Louie feel really comfortable. I enjoyed the pictures that she sent me throughout caring for my Louie. Will definitely book again.”
17. Nathan F.
“Best Rover I’ve had! Dogs adored him, he maintained communication, and left the house better than he found it. Highly recommend!!”
18. Belle O.
“Belle is a certified angel! She has watched my 1 year old long hair dachshund named Dot while I was away on vacation and was great with communication and pictures the whole vacation through! I will book her for any and all my future endeavors!”
19. Anamaria M.
“She was able to help me out at the last minute with my pit Bull mix Dora when I had to work on the weekend, which was just a bad vacation. She sent me plenty of updates and photos, which was obviously very helpful. Dora was in good hands and she was able to also handle some things I had forgotten to do at home. She’s highly demanded on the app, so I can only hope that she will accept our request for help in the future! Thanks AnaMarie”
20. Becca M.
“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”
