“Cassandra did a nice job of sharing photos along the way and looks like Dexter warmed up to her! Dexter can be finicky and Cassandra had a break through;) The dogs were very happy when we got home and all is good. Will definitely use Cassandra again.”
“Scott was INCREDIBLE with my three Rhodesian Ridgebacks. I hadn't even made it to the airport before I received the first of many frequent updates. Here I was worrying about them and they'd already settled in and were napping. It made it SO much easier to step on the plane knowing they were comfortable AND in good hands. And I could tell that the entire visit went well because when I got home they were completely relaxed and there was no "post trip cling". Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!”
“Haleigh was great as our pet sitter! She provided updates/photos of the dogs during the visit, kept up with the daily meds for our older dog and made sure our leash aggressive smaller dog stayed out of trouble. I would very much recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their dogs!”
“Diana was great. This is the first time we’ve left our mini dachshund with anyone other than family. She sent pictures and communicated with us throughout our trip. I recommend her highly and will book her again for future needs.”
“Hands down she was the best rover doggie/house sitter we’ve had. Her communication was great and she was very attentive to our two doggies. She gave them lots of play time. We ran into an issue with our flights and got stuck an additional night out of town and Hannah was very willing to work with us and she helped us out tremendously! I would highly recommend Hannah and we would definitely like to have her sit for us again.”
“Natazia took such good care of our senior doggies and house. She followed their routine wonderfully and adapted to any changes as needed. She regularly sent photos to us which helped us relax to know our babies were in good hands. Thanks so much again Natazia!”

About: I’ve been taking care of family pets, neighbors, and friend’s pets for around 9 years. People have trusted me with dogs and cats, all ages and sizes. In the recent years, I used to foster dogs of all ages, some for 2 weeks at a time and others for many weeks. I love animals, and this is a great way to help when I can. I can walk your pet, sit with them, play with them, feed them, or if you’re out of town for a few days I am happy to make sure they are as happy as can be until you return. Whatever you need, I am here to help! I am happy to come to your home. I have a dog, but no fenced in yard. I will not bring her unless you specifically request me to.
“Shannon is a great pet sitter! I had a different sitter cancel on me a few hours before I had to get on a plane to leave the country. I was in a jam and she came to the rescue! When I returned home, my animals were happy and healthy. I would use her service again.”

Lauren was amazing! She gave daily updates and photos of all of my babies throughout our trip. She was very communicative and flexible when needed. She even made sure to clean the dishes she used, take out the trash, and strip the sheets! She went above and beyond, and we will definitely be booking her again!

Griffin did an exceptional job watching my two pups! He gave me plenty of updates while I was away and followed my instructions perfectly. He even walked them an extra time in the afternoon because he knew I was getting in a little later than planned. I will definitely rebook him again in the future!

We are so incredibly grateful for Andrea and her sweet daughter Amelia! They stayed at our home while we were away on vacation and cared for our 3 dogs and 2 cats as if they were their own. From the start, Andrea’s communication was excellent—she sent us daily photos, videos, and updates that gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pets were happy, loved, and in the best hands. Not only did they provide exceptional care for our animals, but they also went above and beyond by watering our garden and houseplants. When we returned, our home was spotless and our pets were relaxed, healthy, and clearly well cared for. Andrea and Amelia made it possible for us to truly enjoy our vacation without worry. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving, and reliable care for their pets and home. Thank you both so much—we hope to work with you again soon! 🐾💗
Ali is absolutely amazing! We’ve used her multiple times, and she’s always so loving and attentive with our pups. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands while we’re away. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly has a special way with animals. Highly recommend!

Omar is truly a pet whisperer! He took care of our three pets (one French Bulldog and two cats—one of whom is very shy and the other epileptic and requires medication three times a day) and did an absolutely amazing job. Omar has a magical way of connecting with animals that is unmatched. All of our pets adored him! He followed all of our instructions to the letter, keeping our pets’ routine intact, and sent us plenty of videos and photos, so we could see them happy and well taken care of. We’ve never felt so comfortable leaving our pets with someone while traveling, but Omar made it so easy. He is a special person who genuinely loves animals, and it’s clear that they feel the same way about him. His ability to bond with them is something we’ve never seen before. We are thrilled to recommend him 200% as our official pet sitter from now on. Thank you, Omar, for doing such an outstanding job. You’ve earned our complete trust, and we are so grateful!
Chandler is great! She was willing and able to help us last minute. Razzle and Doc enjoyed having her with them. Razzle doesn’t warm up quickly, but she had a good vibe about Chandler and seemed very comfortable with her! Chandler provided updates throughout our time away.
Dana did a great job watching our precious Roxy. She came several weeks before we need her for a meet and great. She did a great job. Roxy was content when when we got home and the house was just as we left it. I would highly recommend Dana and we will use her again.
Shannon is completely amazing! She is warm, kind and loving. The dogs actually looked disappointed when it was us coming through the door and not her. 🤣🤣 We got plenty of photos and updates while we were gone. The pups were well cared for and had so much fun with her!
