Josette has been wonderful with our two dogs! We have an anxious girl who is typically nervous around new people but she took to Josette right away and is now very excited when she comes because she knows she is going to go on an adventure with her and have a blast. Josette is also great with our senior guy, and she’s able to tire them both out even though they have different exercise needs. Josette also totally spoiled them with plenty of treats (pre-approved by us) and by switching up the activities she took them on so every day was new and exciting. She also sent plenty of update photos, which we appreciate. We’re very pleased with how quickly our dogs became comfortable with her and we fully trust her with our fur babies. I highly recommend Josette!

Roshanda was amazing! She went the extra mile by sending us regular photos and videos of Duke and Spooky to keep us informed. She helped our pets feel comfortable and safe while we were away. Our cat can be pretty shy around new people, but Roshanda was able to speak his language and get him to come and hang out. On the other hand, our dog deals with a bit of separation anxiety, and it's clear that Roshanda has experience with that because she got him to calm down and feel comfortable with us being away. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a responsible, caring, dedicated pet sitter.

Christina was amazing!! It was our first time leaving our 2 labs at home with a house sitter and it exceeded all my expectations. Christina's communication was great and updated us along the way. One of our girls decided to retrieve a rodent from the pool which she has never done (of course). While understandably traumatic, Christina was able to resolve...Sadie was so proud of her catch and did not want to give up her prize :) She handled it with such patience and good nature. So glad we met and we will be working with her again soon. I highly recommend Christina!

We were gone for 5 days and Michelle took such great care of our babies and our home. She did amazing providing daily updates and photos. Everyone was well taken care of and we had piece of mind while we were gone. We are so grateful to have a pet sitter that we can depend on. We will definitely be using Michelle's services again. Thank you, thank you for everything! 💜 💜

Selina was amazing! We have 2 cats and a small dog. Our dog is a picky people pup, but in a short time Selina managed to win her over! She is the only person who has done this. Selina was also able to socialize with one of our very non-social cats. We came home to happy, healthy, well taken care of babies. We have already booked her for our travels in October and we will be hiring her any time we go out of town!

We are so happy that we found Elisa as a house sitter through Rover for our 2 active, bonded dogs (a standard Labradoodle and shepherd mix). Our dogs are very particular with new people and have high energy. We had previously used a doggy daycare facility for boarding, but with our shepherd recently recovering from a cough due to acute bronchitis, we decided to try Rover. We were reluctant at first, but with our dogs being used to the home setting and with a 2 week trip planned out of the country, a house sitter idea made sense if it would work right. Elisa set-up a meet and greet at our house, and we were amazed at how well our dogs immediately accepted her into our home and were so excited to meet her, as if she was already part of the family. During the 2 week stay, Elisa walked our 2 dogs twice a day, separately (since our dogs can be a challenge to handle on a walk together). Since Elisa works remotely, she was able to stay and work in our home, while the dogs had their usual routine. Upon our return, our home was clean and tidy, just as we left it, and our dogs acted as if we barely left for a few hours (seems they already miss Elisa). We will definitely have Elisa house sit for us and our dogs again in the future!

I couldn’t be anymore happier and at ease with the love, attention to detail, and care Alexandra has given my cats the last four days while I was at a trip. Because she has babies of her own (cats) she understands the level of cat mom I am (I left notes everywhere, labeled things, and she was willing to come twice to go over everything again). She took pictures, sent me videos, and was able to engage in the daily routines (breakfast kibble hunting, playtime, and kitty bedtime routine). Despite one of my cats throwing up on a bedsheet, she didn’t have a problem cleaning it up(I felt awful it happened). This same cat is normally shy and is weary of strangers so it was a huge deal that my cat (Mia) trust Alexandra to where she’s wanted shoulder rides, wants to be hand fed, let alone asking for affection. I think we found our furrever babysitter 🙏🏻😭😍can’t thank you enough Alexandra for EVERYTHING!

Taegan was an absolute gem! We met her and immediately loved her and over the course of our 10 day trip, loved her more and more every day! Taegan sent us daily updates including pictures and loved on our three animals in our absence. Taegan was so responsible and was willing to take care of any issue that came up. Our house was spotless and she even washed our sheets and towels! I’ve never traveled with such ease, having complete confidence that our animals and house were in the best hands. We will 💯 use Taegan again and can only hope she is available because she is that awesome!

Meghan completely put me at ease when I left my Riley in her very capable hands so I could travel home . She sent me updates and adorable pictures of my pup every day and reinforced my on-going training. I came home to a very happy & relaxed pup. I will 💯 use Meghan again for housesitting, caring for my pup and dog walks. I highly recommend her !

Cailie did a great job with our two dogs! One is a 16 year old diabetic with a lot of special needs (medication, feeding, injections, extra snuggles). Cailie was very attentive to her daily routine. She made sure she was eating and getting her insulin on time. The house was clean when we returned home and both dogs happy! Highly recommend!

Lydia has been an absolute lifesaver when it comes to taking care of my dog! Her warmth and genuine love for animals shine through every time she watches over him. My dog is usually shy, but with Lydia, he immediately felt comfortable and happy. She’s incredibly reliable, always on time, and sends me updates that give me peace of mind. I know my dog is in the best hands with her, getting the attention, playtime, and care he needs. I couldn’t recommend Lydia enough for pet sitting, she’s fantastic!
