“Héloïse was incredible with our girl who has a lot of anxiety. she knew just what to do and sent the perfect amount of updates which we loved, esp since it was her first time at our place with marlowe. came back to a happy pup and perfectly clean home. tysm! 💜”


“Jami did an amazing job watching our two boys (dogs) while we were away for a long weekend. She texted us frequent updates and a lot of photos. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family!”


“There are just not enough good things to say about Patricia. She took great care of our dog and of our house. I am so glad and grateful to know her. It is easy to recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”


“As expected Yuka was a wonderful and reliable sitter for our puppy. This was our first time leaving him with anyone and Yuka was very welcoming and made him feel at home. We got great pictures while we were out and I would recommend Yuka!”


“Seungyeon was so kind, attentive and caring of Daisy. She didn’t need to be with her the whole 4 hours but it seems she didn’t leave her side. Daisy is paralyzed on her back legs and Seungyeon accommodated for every need. Would call her again!”


“My energetic dog was really well taken care of by Jasper! It was our first time leaving her for more than one night, and she was communicative and consistent with photos and updates. Everything went smoothly and we would gladly ask her to sit our dog again!”


“Carley is fantastic! She was communicative the whole time and really made an effort to connect with our pets. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”


“Deana was so kind and trustworthy. She seems to be the first Rover that my very spoiled maldita actually liked and felt comfortable with in a short period of time. She knew exactly how to care for dogs that are special in character, and I can tell Deana has a good heart for our furry babies. She's really cool too and very easy to talk to. She sent me photos and gave me updates! Highly recommended! So happy to have her care for our Wendie, and will definitely have her care for my spoiled girl again whenever we need to go Universal Studios and Disneyland! Hope she takes us back! THANK YOU D!”


“Jean took great care of our pup and was so easy and kind to work with! Our anxious and hyper dog calmed down with her instantly. Great communication and updates as well!”

“Sofia was the best!!! She was so sweet and caring with my cat, and kept me updated every day so I never had to worry. She was super communicative, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. I could tell my baby felt comfortable and happy with her. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust.”



“My wife and I had Alex stay at our place overnight to watch our cats and she did a wonderful job! She was very attentive and an active messenger for an anxious cat dad like myself. Our normally shy and nervous cat even came out to see her! Highly recommended her to come care for your animals. She left the place looking exactly how it was before we left :) If you need a sitter, Alex is your girl.”


“Sarah looked after my 4.5 month golden retriever. I contacted her last minute and she responded quickly. She provided updates and photos and made me feel at ease. Thank you Sarah!”


“Hannah was great! She stayed in close communication, sent pics and I know my dog was perfectly happy in his normal routine while we were out of town. She went above and beyond in many ways!”


“My dog recently had knee surgery and I had a very last minute request for someone to watch him and lift him outdoors to go potty, since I needed to be somewhere over the weekend. I reached out to Patrick and he was super responsive, flexible with timing, and able to lift my 100lb. to keep him off his knee. I will definitely rebook with Patrick and I’d recommend him to anyone!”


“Samantha did a fantastic job sitting my cranky senior Chihuahua. Lemon can be a handful, but Samantha took extra time to get to know her before their first walk together. It seemed to pay off really well for this weekend sitting, where Lemon had a lot of cuddles and attention. I really appreciated the photo updates throughout the weekend letting me know that lemon was happy, comfortable, and enjoying her meals and walks. We returned to a happy dog and clean home. I highly recommend Samantha.”


“Mi-Cha-El was great with my pup and cat! Even though my cat couldn't be bothered to make an appearance, she was well cared for. Mi-Cha-El was on top of sending updates throughout the day, including sending photos and videos. Toward the end of the booking, the ant invasion in my home and my busted shower head could have deterred Mi-Cha-El, but he was kind and thoughtful to clean up the ants and keep me looped in with the shower head as it happened. Thank you! ?”


“Latte loved Jenny. I arrived home and was greeted by a happy, affectionate, playful cat. My holiday was enhanced by a steady stream of creative kitty pix and videos. Jenny is a gem. Natural grace. A true cat whisperer and animal lover.”


“Rebecca house sat with my pup for a few days and it was such a great experience! She was communicative and made sure my pup felt comfortable at all times. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
