Gabby was amazing with our sweet pup! We have an older dog and Gabby sent many photos and spent a lot of time with her. And the house was immaculate after she left! Highly recommend!

Stephanie did an outstanding job! From our initial meet and greet to our homecoming, we felt very comfortable with and confident in her abilities. She stayed in touch with us via the Rover app and even sent pictures. All of our pets liked her including our most timid cat who even allowed her to pet her. We will definitely hire Stephanie again! Toby. Stella, Rachel, and Hobo give her four paws up!

We hired Allyson to house sit and watch our 2 labs for 11 days. This was our first time using Rover so we were a little nervous. But Allyson did a wonderful job watching over our house and our fur babies! She sent us daily pictures and updates throughout our time away and definitely put our minds at ease!

We had Andrew pet sit for our 2 year old dog for several nights at our house. He went above and beyond. Communication while we were away was fabulous. The kids loved the videos and photos. Jeri got some leash training and was walked several times a day. We had a great vacation knowing that Andrew was taking such good care of Jeri. Would strongly recommend him for your pet care.

Jordan was very nice. She left my home in great condition, sent me photos of Rocco as well as updates. Unfortunately, my dog has anxiety that made him sick so we had to end the care early.

Katrina treated my dogs just like her own… She took the best care of them, communicated with me throughout my trip, and my gut instinct told me that they were in the best hands. For once my instincts were right! My 15 year old pitbull, Romeo, could not have been happier when I came home. He looked even younger than when I left, I swear! And my sweet and sassy and very smart pit - husky mix, Jade, was calm & serene when i came home.. I could tell that they had gotten amazing care and a ton of love. She took them on wonderful walks, whether it was raining or not, and she made sure to ask any questions that she had. I can’t think of anything that she could’ve done better… I feel so fortunate to have had her as my sitter. I don’t think I will ever use anyone else unless she isn’t available. I can’t recommend her highly enough. And as a dog groomer and vet tech for 12 years, I have high standards for care. She exceeded my standards & expectations. Thank you so much, from Romeo, Josie and Jade. We can’t wait to see you next time!

Evan is a great house and pet sitter. She communicates well and responds quickly. I felt great knowing my dog and home were in her hands while I was away. You can tell she is an animal lover and I know she gave lots of love to my boy. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!

Briana was wonderful! She is a great communicator and kept us in the loop while we were gone. Our girls can be a little rambunctious and she handled them just fine. And she left our house in better shape than she found it! We will definitely use her again and recommend her without reservations.

Brittany has watched my 6-year old, Chihuahua mix several times and does SUCH a good job. She has separation anxiety and can be angsty around strangers, but Brittany does a good job of keeping her safe and calming her nerves. I've also seen firsthand how highly attentive and loving she is to her own cat. I would absolutely leave my pup with Brittany again for a walk, daycare, or overnight!

Rochelle is a great pet sitter and caregiver for your animals! She is a personal friend and we have brought our dogs to her house many times to play. She is a very active person who loves playing fetch, going on hikes, and to dog parks. We were away on a two week vacation and asked Rochelle if she would take care of our dogs while away. Rochelle sent many pictures and video updates. They were very well cared for. The dogs were very happy during their stay and had so much fun! We came home to two very happy, healthy, and tired dogs from all of the adventures they had while away. I would highly recommend Rochelle for any pet sitting needs and know your animals will be well taken care of!
