1. Kelly D.


“Kelly was great! Our dog, Cailey is a nervous girl and Kelly tackled the challenge with ease. During our pre-stay meet and greet, Kelly took detailed notes to ensure she knew everything necessary, and afterward, she left us notes as well detailing the day to day activities. She gave us updates and pictures to let us know how everything was going. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Cailey was well taken care of. Definitely would recommend.”


2. JaNiya P.

“JaNiya is a phenomenal housesitter, especially if you have shy animals (but *any* animal would love her!). We have two skittish greyhounds and a very shy adopted cat. Within one day, our cat was sitting in JaNiya’s lap, and our dogs were relaxed and happy. I couldn’t believe it! She has such a calm, tender presence, and you can tell she adores animals. She’s even studying to be a veterinarian! Do not pass her up! She’s the only housesitter we’ll use from now on!”


3. Ben T.

“This was the second time we hired Ben to watch our pups. Once again, we were very pleased with how our pups were cared for. Ben was communicative while we were away, and our home was clean and tidy when we returned.”


4. Rebekah W.

“Becka gives us peace of mind while we are out of town. She is attentive and flexible to meet our dog’s needs. Also, she keeps in touch with any questions or concerns. I highly recommend!”


5. LaDonna & Chris K.


“LaDonna you are amazing. Thank you so much for keeping our two Great Pyrenees and two cats great company while we were gone. We really appreciate you going above and beyond for us. The girls truly do love you and we know our fur babies are in great hands with you!!! You rock!”


6. Bradishia F.

“This was my first time using Bradishia as a sitter. She was very attentive towards the care of my dogs, and provided great care. I hope to use her again in the future!”


7. Carolyn F.

“Carolyn is a rock star. From our meet and greet we knew found a gem. She helped us out in a last minute situation as well. She kept us in the loop with regular updates and adorable pics and videos. We felt totally at ease knowing our pet was in great hands, allowing us to fully enjoy our trip. We will definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to everyone.”


8. Sommer M.

“Sommer was amazing! Well, it was a last-minute decision to go out of town for the holidays and leave our puppy. We are so happy and lucky we found her. She did multiple overnight stays for us and worked around her schedule and was very diligent and making sure that our puppy was taken care of. I definitely look forward to having her as a part of our family as needed! Thank you, Sommer for all your help and I was not worried about my dog at all!”


9. Levi G.
“Levi definitely knows what he is doing with our fur babies. He is reliable, trustworthy, and will give them lots of loves. Anytime I need a pet sitter he is my go to because our pups love him so much. You can’t go wrong choosing him!”


10. Mike W.

“Wow is all I can say! We have only lived in Tennessee 2 years and work so much we haven’t met anyone we trusted with our boys so thought we’d try Rover for a trip to Florida to help my parents move. We were gone a full 7 days. Michael came to meet us and our boys a couple weeks prior to our trip and was very pleasant and professional. We have a pit and a frenchie that are a bit high maintenance. Every day he sent us pics and a note on how everyone was doing. Our home was spotless when we got back he even picked up the back yard and ran our vacuum. Our boys seemed happy and we couldn’t be happier owners! Michael really took a ton of stress off our shoulders and made it easy for us to be productive and have a good week away. Thank you so much!!!!!”




11. Caitlin T.

“Caitlin is a very passionate individual. She has a deep love for dogs. She treats her own dog like a prince and is very well cared for and would treat any dog the exact way because she believes every dog deserves a forever home and to be loved. She has worked with caring for dogs as her full time job for more than a year and a half. She is highly motivated and a hard worker with a strong work ethic and will take pride in her work. Any dog owner would be lucky to have her in any capacity.”


12. Charlie M.

“We are so happy we found Charlie. She is wonderful with our 2 pups. She was very responsive and polite. Our girls love her. You can tell by the videos and pictures we received. She also took great care of our home. We are definitely going to request her services in the future.”


13. Saundra R.

“Saundra was great and was always updating me. I have a shelter dog and sometimes it takes time for her to warm up to new people. Saundra continued to care for her despite not receiving a great welcome at first :) but my dog finally warmed up to her after a day. I am thankful!”


14. Amanda D.

“Sid was taken care of nicely. He was the same dog we left. Goofy and showed only the signs that his people were home. Amanda was great with him and earned his trust by the second night. He was so comfortable that he slept with her. Great job. We’ve booked her again for a longer vacation in May.”


15. Laura S.
“I am a Construction Project Manager that travels for extended periods of time, and even when at home often so busy I cannot give Zeus (my fur baby) the time he deserves. Laura has been a God send and eases my mind that Zeus is being taken care of and getting the exercise he needs. My world is Zeus and finding Laura has allowed me to continue to do my job without the stress and guilt of not being able to care for my baby. She is loving to Zeus and makes sure he is active…she takes him to the dog park and makes sure he is chasing a ball or running around the park not just sitting around. Thank you so much for your dedication and love for my world!”


16. Delaney S.
“Delaney was a wonderful sitter for our boys! We have two of the craziest Frenchies I've ever seen and she handled them just fine! We've had problems getting a sitter for them since they are such high energy but she has never had a problem! Delaney made sure to update us throughout their stay at her house and they seemed to have a great time with her dog! I would recommend her to everyone.”




17. Julie L.

“I’m really happy that I found Julie. She came to my house and stayed with my dogs, and obviously loves animals. She sent me lots of pictures and updates. The dogs did great with her. I would trust her to watch my animals anytime.”


18. Caitlyn S.
“Caitlyn was very loving to my dogs. She was a great communicator and the puppies enjoyed her warmth and kindness. I would use Caitlyn again.”


19. Dawn S.
About: Ive never met a dog that didn’t like me. I've cared for fur babies from extra small to extra large. I like to do a meet and greet first prior to taking care of your babies just so I can make sure that we’re a good fit I’m retired so my schedule is pretty free right now. I’m available to do drop ins to do whatever you might need. If they need to go to the the Vet or groomer. 😊👋🐶 I have a fenced in backyard as well as two friendly dogs. I can create your pet as needed as I do have crates here. If they’re good to free roam then they would just free roam like they were at home, but preferably I will keep them at your house so they’re in a comfortable Environment that they’re used to


20. Samantha S.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old, I’ve done friends, family, family friends. They all trust me to feed, bathe, and make sure everyone is safe I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of times to take care and play with ur pups! I’m available any day of the week and weekends after 12pm I always make sure my dogs are on a leash since we don’t have a fenced in yard, I always keep a close eye on the dogs and make sure they can’t get off the leash or if a client does have a fence they can’t get out of it somewhere
