4. Bri A.

“Bri was absolutely AMAZING with both of our dogs that have opposite personalities (young pitbull and senior chihuahua). She gave constant updates and made us know they were in good hands. She also cuddled with them at night when they were both afraid of the storm. She made sure that all their needs were met and that they got their medications. We all love her and highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much, Bri!!!”

10. Hailey K.

“Hailey is SO flexible! I booked her for 3 nights, but life happened. I had to keep changing things at the last minute, but she worked with me. Bo loved her. She sent pictures which I didn't even ask for. Trustworthy and reliable! I would definitely book again!”

12. Allison R.

“Allison is absolutely amazing!! This was our first time using rover or just having someone watch our nova girl and it couldn’t have went any better. Allison was very sweet and calm with nova letting her meet her since she can be nervous at times but it turned out they was new bestfriends! She kept me informed and sent pictures while we was gone! I couldn’t say enough things about her! Very trustworthy! Will definitely be booking with her again! (:”


13. Julia S.

“Our experience was great. Julia was very thoughtful communicative throughout her time watching our dogs and home for a few nights. Our boys can be over enthusiastic when they love someone - and she handled the attention perfectly. We will definitely be using her again in the future. Thanks, Julia!”


14. Olga & Stepan A.
“I can wholeheartedly recommend Olga as a dog walker, as well as a pet/house sitter! She was recently my house sitter while I was out of the country for 2 1/2 months and cared for my 72 lb. dog, Brody. She walked him 3x/day, administered his joint supplements and flea/tick chews, drove him to his groom appointments, brushed him daily, etc. She was a great communicator and kept me up-to-date on Brody (including photos & videos). I could tell that Brody was being well taken care of; he was content and happy and that was my primary concern. Olga was considerate, pro-active, thoughtful and completely on top of things with Brody and my home. It was a very positive experience from start to finish.”


15. Paige G.

“Paige was awesome with our dogs while we were away. She kept us up to date with pictures and texts. The dogs loved her and the house was cleaner than before we left. We have already reached out to her to watch them again. I highly recommend Paige.”


16. Audrey S.

“Audrey stayed with out anxious Italian greyhound for over a week and sent photos, communicated well, and was attentive to our directions. We definitely would recommend her!”


17. Corinne A.

“Codeine was so lovely with Beasley. Delightful to have her in our home 🏡. Fantastic”


18. A.J. B.

“I was over joyed with my experience having A.J. House sit for me. I knew my beagle pup Boris was always well taken care of. A.J. Kept a good communication and was understanding of my needs even with five hour time difference. Came back to a happy pup and a well maintained home!”


19. Dianna T.

“Super reliable, Fig seemed happy and well take care of!”


20. Nolan L.
“Nolan is an excellent person to take care of your dog! He is very responsible and reliable, and has always taken good care of our family dog. I would highly recommend him as a pet caregiver.”
