Meaghan spent the day with our two dogs and she was so kind and responsive. Sent pictures and kept us updated, even helped with a little accident. Would definitely rebook!

I’m so lucky I found Ariel. She is so skilled and confident and somehow she got my very selective pit bulls to like and listen to her within hours of meeting them! Her knowledge of dog behavior and ability to control them was apparent literally 5 minutes after she walked into my house. I give her a 10 out of 5 stars! She exceeded every expectation I had and I believe this the start of a long relationship. I can finally relax enough to take a real vacation, thanks to Ariel.

Sadie did amazing with both cats, but especially with my older gent who needs 3 meds per day (oral, topical, inhaler) and has a complicated feeding schedule. Usually both cats are starved for attention when I get back (or so they say…) but they both were so chill when I got back — it’s clear they’d gotten lots of love while I was away 🩷

Danny was wonderful! He stayed at our place for 3 nights and watched two of my elderly (12-13 yo) little 9 lbs dogs. He was extremely professional and responsible - prompt with replies, followed up politely when I failed to respond in a timely fashion, and left the house in very good order. I highly recommend Danny and would absolutely seek him out again.

Jamela was perfect! My dog is quite often a bit standoffish and can have quite an attitude when I leave. Jamela was patient and understanding with him. By day two they were best buds, and that always makes it easier knowing your pet is happy. She sent daily updates on how everything was going, which meant I didn't need to check in much. Also, my apartment was left in great condition - she even put her bedding in the washer. I will definitely book again!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Avary. From the second we connected until we parted ways, Avary stood out as exemplary. Communication was beyond what could be expected, and the thoughtfulness, care, consideration, respect… are just a few words that now come to mind thinking about this experience. I’ve never met anyone — especially through Rover — who had seemingly gone above and beyond to match an existing routine. The true tell was that my dog was willing to take Avary on our USUAL hour-long night walk; something he highly protects. It was so clear that he was completely comfortable after less than a day and was happy to be able to stick to his pretty standard routine because of how well Avary learned and stuck to it too. Would 100% ask back again (and will)!!!

Highly recommend! We had Carmen stay at our place to watch our two cats for four days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She came by beforehand to go over instructions and meet our two boys, who immediately took a liking to her. She has a great disposition for cats and they could sense it right away. While we were away, Carmen was fantastic about communicating, regularly sending photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind. She also had to give medication to one of our cats and followed the instructions carefully and confidently. When we returned, our apartment was left very clean. One of our cats unfortunately made a few messes during her stay, and Carmen was kind enough to vacuum, mop, and even wash the blankets that got dirty. We felt completely comforted knowing our cats were in such great hands and would absolutely recommend Carmen to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter

We had a fantastic experience with Iraklii as our dog sitter over the 4th of July weekend. He stayed in our home and took wonderful care of our two dogs, keeping them happy, calm, and secure while we were away. He sent us regular updates with sweet photos, which gave us real peace of mind throughout our trip. Iraklii was incredibly kind, warm, and gentle with the dogs—and he left our home just as clean as we left it. You can tell he truly cares. We highly recommend him!

Kristen generously came over to get to know Quinn before he stayed with her. She's slow to warm up and even for the first days they were together, she was reluctant to go out. With time and his patience, she gained confidence and everything fell into place. Kristen responded to my queries and was easy going. I will definitely reach out again.

Scary has stayed with our Schipperke, Roger, twice now! First when he was just an 11mo-old pup, and recently as an adolescent 13mo-old. Both times, we felt confident, communicated with, secure, and grateful. We even had a crazy travel snag with our flight cancelled overnight for more than 24hrs and Avary went above and beyond to make sure Roger was cared for, fed, let out, and all the things, helping tremendously to ease an already stressful situation. Avary is the most communicative sitter we’ve encountered. When Roger had anxiety accidents, Avary made sure he and our space were clean, keeping us informed and Roger comfy every step of the way. 10/10 recommend this incredible, thoughtful, kind, compassionate, smart, intuitive, talented pet-sitter. Avary knows dogs and it’s clear dogs love Avary. The best of the best.

Karina was so fantastic watching our dog, Junie, for 10 days while we were out of town. Junie takes a bit to warm up to new people, so Karina came by twice beforehand to get to know Junie, and she quickly warmed up to Karina who is calm, patient, and kind. While we were away, we had peace of mind that Junie was in good hands and Karina proactively texted us with pictures and updates on Junie every day. Karina is extremely reliable and she left our house as clean as we had left it.

Eli was an amazing sitter for our dog, Greg. Greg has some behavioral challenges, so it’s especially important for us to find someone who’s patient, understanding, and experienced—and Eli exceeded all of our expectations. He kept us updated throughout Greg’s stay with thoughtful messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Eli took the time to understand Greg’s needs and handled him with incredible patience and care. We’re so grateful for the excellent care Eli provided, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again.
