“Zara was such a life saver! We had a last minute trip we had to go on and Zara swooped in and saved the day. She watched our cat and dog and did an amazing job! She is super responsive and reliable. She made sure that our little guys had a great time while we were away. We got lots of photos of their time and Zara took great care of our home while we were away. I will 100% be rebooking with her in the future! Thank you Zara!”

“Mary was absolutely incredible! She is very thoughtful and attentive and has a such a kind and beautiful energy to her. It was our first time going through Rover and having someone stay at our home and watch our animals. She sent us a lot of pictures and updates on how everyone was doing. When we got home they were all so calm! It was so nice being able to travel and see family which is really hard for us with 2 dogs and a cat. We were at ease knowing our animals were in good hands with Mary. She will definitely be our go-to person for now on!”

“Jayne watched our two dogs for three nights while we were out of town. One of our dogs is anxious and takes some time to warm up to new people but Jayne didn’t bat an eye during the meet and greet. It’s clear she has experience handling a wide variety of temperaments and Winnie warmed up to her quickly. We came home to two very happy dogs and a clean house. Grateful to have found a trustworthy person who seems to enjoy connecting with a variety of doggy personalities.”

“Amy is a gem! We did not plan on having a small kitten along with our two adult cats when we planned a trip, and realized a house sitter was needed to continue monitoring and acclimating our cat fam. Amy responded to all communication promptly, sent pics and updates throughout, and left our house immaculate. We came home to cats who were relaxed and happy. Highly recommend Amy's services, she is a trustworthy professional.”

Lydia provided fantastic care for our 5 month old pitbull puppy. He is recovering from a broken leg surgery and had a lot of restrictions and medications and she did a great job keeping him calm, safe and happy. She’s extremely communicative before and during the sitting period and took great care of our home. 10/10 recommend Lydia for any pet care needs!

Caroline watched Beans while we were gone for an almost 2 week vacation. She is always so communicative and shares pictures/updates for walks and many of his daily activities. She takes into account his needs and really cares for him like her own. She also always keeps our place so clean! We will definitely continue working with her and can’t thank her enough!

Camille did an amazing job housesitting and looking after our medium-sized, energetic rescue while we were out of town for almost two weeks. Camille connected with our dog immediately at our meet and greet, they communicated clearly, and were a trusted, safe pair of hands for our pup and house. They navigated our dog's routine with ease, clearly gave her tons of love and attention, and we returned to a house that was cleaner than we left it. Highly recommend working with Camille!

Carter was fantastic! He saved me when I was in a pinch for a sitter last-minute, even coming for a meet and greet with Lady 20 minutes after contacting him. He took extremely good care of Lady and sent proactive updates and photos. I really appreciated that. When I got home, I could tell Lady was healthy and happy - and that was all I could ask for. Would 10/10 book with Carter again!

I can't say enough good things about Lacey. She was kind, flexible, easygoing, and understanding, and she kept me in the loop with prompt, transparent updates the whole time I was away. Most important of all, my pups adored her. When I got home and the pups heard the building door open, they started barking, and every bark was an excited one. They had no idea yet who was coming up the stairs, but they knew they'd be happy to see whoever it was. That told me more about the depth of Lacey's loving care than anything else could have. I recommend her highly and without reservation, and I'd hire her again in a heartbeat!

Gabriela did a wonderful job housesitting and taking care of my cat Bob. He’s an only cat and really thrives off of human love and attention. Because of this, I often get nervous and guilty leaving town. But Gabriela gave Bob tons of love and did an excellent job making sure he got plenty of exercise and stimulation.
