“Mackenzie is skilled with animals and was able and to build a rapport with my skittish cat quickly. This was a warm up meeting for a longer visit this summer. She has put my mind at ease that he will be well cared for when I am gone.”


“Donna was incredible. Our prior dog sitter canceled last minute and Donna was quick with communication and available. She was by far the most organized house/dog sitter that I have ever had. She was great with communication, sending many pictures, and took my dog, Siena, on multiple walks. She went above and beyond and washed the sheets/towels and left the house spotless, without any asking/request to do so. Our dog was very happy when we returned, much so to our prior experiences leaving.”


“Scott was a blessing. He asked all the right questions, genuinely cared for our two pets and took care of our house as it was his. A kind person. We would welcome him at anytime”


“Thank you so much, Shannon, for taking such great care of our pups! We didn’t worry while we were gone, and we know the dogs had a great time and were well cared for!”


“This was our second time booking with Barbara for dog and house sitting and we rebooked with her for good reason! She does such a great job attending to our pups’ needs with care and attention to detail. She is reliable, communicative, and an overall kind person. Our dogs were safe, happy, and at ease in her care.”


“Noemi was very kind and patient with my two large dogs, one of whom is very high energy, and the other who is very shy and fearful. Noemi sent many pictures and kept me updated throughout my trip. She left my home cleaner than she found it, and the dogs were fine when I got back. I can recommend her heartily!”


“Kayla was a wonderful pet sitter while I was out of town. Pippin was well cared for a looked very happy in the many pictures that were sent. I will be happy to book her services in the future.”


“We feel such at ease when Renata is watching our little guys. We know they’re happy and well taken care of. She left our place nicer than we left it. Always appreciate her care attention and communication. Thanks again :)”


“Ursula was wonderful to our pup Otis! She was on time, communicative, and kept our space + the puppy gears sparking clean. We would 100% recommend Ursula to everyone. It was our pleasure to have met her ?”


“Lillie took care of our two Poms in our home for over two weeks and she was amazing. Took one of the dogs to a vet appt, send us photos and videos most days, and provided little anecdotes of the dog’s antics. She also kept our home spotlessly clean and even washed sheets and towels and made the bed she used during her stay. Surpassed our hug expectations. Lillie been a trusted Rover dog/sitter for us for years - the housesitting was a first for us and really worked out great. Lillie has our highest recommendation- 5 paws!!!”


“Madison took such good care of our Murphy and our house. This was the first time we have left Murphy and first time using Wag. It was such a nice feeling to get pictures and updates everyday. Coming home to a happy dog and clean home was beyond appreciated. We would totally recommend using Madison and will definitely use her again?”


“Our first time using Rover was excellent and working with Ethan was the cherry on top! Communications were prompt in coordinating the care of our dogs in our home! We came back from our trip to see our dogs happy and calm. Ethan is a delightful. warm hearted person, plus a very dependable dog sitter. And our house was immaculate when we returned!”


“I’ve used Stephanie twice now and she was just as amazing the second time! I had a late flight home Sunday night, but she changed the sheets on the bed for me and made sure there was a light on and everything was set for me when I got back. The boys (dogs) always have a great time with her and sent pictures even though she knew I likely didn’t have service! We love her and will definitely continue booking!”


“Alessandro is such a great sitter to our pets. He’s responsive, provides updates and photos throughout the day and our pup went crazy when she saw him again. We will definitely book again!”


“Courtney is fantastic! She responds promptly to requests and is a great communicator. Our dog was smitten with her from the first meeting. We will have her back soon!”


“Taylor is very kind, incredibly responsible, and unflappable with my dogs and all of the requests I made when they housesat. My three dogs have a range of needs and energy levels and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Also, the house I arrived back to was cleaner than I left - which is kind of incredible. As a long-time dog owner, I'm tied-in/guilty about their well-being when I go away and I never worried about them and could see how comfortable they were from the photos Taylor sent. I will check with Taylor first on availability in the future and highly recommend them!”


“Alex did a great job watching our dog, Keasbey, in our home! She was incredibly responsive and made sure or check in frequently on how he was doing :) I’ll definitely reach out again for future trips. I know Keasbey will get the care and attention he needs!”


“Bella house-sat for me for a couple of days with my cat Juniper. I adopted Juniper last September and she's still pretty skittish and needs a lot of gentleness and slow movement. Bella was really in tune with Juniper and took such good care of her that when I got home she was in a very lovely mood. The house was tidy too. I highly recommend Bella to take care of you animals and house.”
