1. Chad T.
“Chad was super easy to work with, and very laid back- perfect for our anxious pup. He came by the house to meet us the day before our weekend away. Chad left the house in perfect order, very neat and tidy! We felt very comfortable having him stay in our home with Willie, and Willie seemed to love him too!”
2. Helen N.
“Helen was very sweet as my dog liked her immediately. He is very reliable and seems quite genuine. I would definitely recommend and use her again.”
3. Amanda C.
“Amanda did a great job. Followed directions and asked good question at the initial meet. Regular updates and pups looked happy and relaxed when I returned. I’ll definitely have her back.”
4. Julia N.
“Julia was incredible! She watched our high energy german Shepard for the weekend and stayed at our house. She’s a great listener and a great communicator. She sent me multiple pictures and messages a day and was always available if needed. She left our house cleaner than it was when she got there and our dog loved her. It is very clear that she loves animals and takes her job very seriously. We will 100% continue using Julia for our dog’s care!!”
5. Monarch E.
“Monarch's passion for animals is absolutely unmatched. The quality of care and genuine love she provides is everything I desire in when it comes to seeking someone to look after my pets. Her gentle nature and knowledgeable skills undoubtedly speak for themselves. Consideration for her is one of the best decisions you'll ever make. She's incredible!”

“Lisa was absolutely wonderful. She treated our fur babies like her own, sent me updates and pictures, paid close attention to all the information we threw at her, and most importantly kept our babies safe and happy.”
7. Nicole M.
“Nicole was absolutely wonderful! She sent me plenty of pictures of Reggie while I was away and checked in every morning and night. This was my first time using Rover, so I was a bit nervous, but Nicole made me feel completely reassured and comfortable. Highly recommend her!”
8. Barbara & Harold C.
“Barbara and Harold were fantastic sitters and gave me such peace of mind watching my 3 dogs while I was on vacation. They exceeded my expectations, with numerous updates daily - always including several pictures and video with each message. My dogs LOVED them and appeared to adjust very quickly. I will absolutely be reaching out to them again for future needs! Thank you guys for loving my pups!”
9. Sara S.
“Sara listened carefully and was very calm and patient with my 2 dogs who are very different personalities. They are looking forward to their next house sitting next week.”
10. Stephanie P.
“Stephanie did a great job taking care of Sebastian and our house. Everything was neat and tidy when we got home and Sebastian was in good spirits. He seems to have been happy while she was here, based on the pictures we received each day, and bonded to her quickly. While happy to see us on our return, Sebastian appeared to have been really well cared for during our vacation. Would definitely recommend using Stephanie for your house sitting and pet sitting needs!”

14. Maura R.
“Great experience. We needed help last minute & she was extremely responsive. We received updates through the night & our pups were well taken care of!!”
15. Michael G.
“Michael is fantastic! Friendly, professional, thoughtful, and communicative. He quickly seemed very comfortable with our dog and went above and beyond what we asked by taking her for walks.”
16. Kiara P.
“Kiara helped me dog sit two dogs this summer, a pitbull named Midnight and a raccoon hound named Gomer. We watched them for 3 nights while the owners were on a trip to Massachusetts. Kiara was very attentive with the two dogs and very consistent with their daily schedules. I’m usually a late sleeper, so she would always take the initiative to take the dogs on an early walk. Gomer and midnight loved her.”
17. Hannah R.
“Came home to a happy and healthy pup after a weekend away thanks to Hannah! 🫶🐶”
18. Nancy L.
“I recently had Nancy care for my dog Zoey and was thoroughly impressed! Nancy is not just a caretaker, but a true companion for Zoey. Reliability and communication was top notch and it was evident that Zoey genuinely enjoyed being with Nancy. If you need a pet sitter/walker, who is reliable, has excellent communication and a true love for animals Nancy is the only choice! I highly recommend her, and I’m grateful for the peace of mind that was provided during my time away.”
19. Victoria C.
