1. Izzy Y.

“Izzy watched Poppy at my place over the weekend. She sent updates and photos multiple times per day and took the best care of Poppy. She also left my place immaculate, everything was clean, folded and organized just as I left it. She’s very dependable and such a pleasure to work with!”


2. Tori W.

“Tori did a wonderful job taking care of our fur-kid, Franklin, and our home while we were gone. She was great about sending photos and reaching out to me if she had any questions. Franklin completely took to her and was as normal as could be when we got home after a week away. (He's 8 mos old and this was his first experience being left with a sitter.) It was wonderful to return home to a tidy house AND a happy cat. I would recommend Tori to anyone who needs a thoughtful, conscientious house & pet sitter!”


3. Nicki A.

4. Cara F.

“Cara was absolutely the best house sitter for our Mabel during our recent vacation. She is attentive, dependable, kind, and organized. This was our first time using Rover house sitter and we couldn't have been more happy. Knowing our dog was in great hands made such a difference in our vacation and peace of mind. I don't know how we got so lucky to get Cara, but we are so very thankful for her! Simply outstanding service!”


5. Gabi S.

“Gabi was amazing with our dog while we were in St Louis for a show. We needed someone last minute to stay with him in our hotel because he’s afraid of storms and the weather was questionable. He immediately warmed up to her and we had a great night knowing he wasn’t alone.”


6. Natalee C.

“Natalee did an amazing job caring for my boys. She did a great job keeping us updated and sent several fun pics of them. She took care of them like they were her own. I'm so happy I found someone that I can trust with my babies. She truly provided peace of mind for me. Natalee is now family, and I will definitely be using her services again.”


7. Niara J.

“Niara was exceptional with taking care of our three dogs for a week. She was housesitting as well. She gave daily updates, sent pictures and videos. I would totally recommend her watching your dogs anytime!”


8. D'Andra D.

“D’Andra was amazing. She kept us up to date on our cat and dog everyday while we were away for 3 weeks. The house was maintained and was so kind in every communication. Our animals were well taken care of and we will definitely book with her again.”


9. Lauren F.

“Lauren arrived right ok time, asked questions about Heath’s routine, and sent me updates and pictures throughout the night. Heath is a little shy at first but you could tell he got over it by the cute pictures Lauren shared.”


10. Julia B.

“Julia was great! She sent pictures of our animals as an update and was a huge help when we needed someone pretty last minute to watch our house.”


11. Mackenzie M.
“Mackenzie takes very good care of our family dog. She is very patient and loving. When we got Atlas she was a little bit anxious and was hard to train. Mackenzie really took the time to help train her and make her feel comfortable in her new home. We had a hard time getting our new puppy to go on walks at first but Mackenzie really worked with her. I highly recommend her to pet sit. I know she would give them special care.”

“Ethan was wonderful! He was very responsive and communicative, and agreed to do a meet and greet before our trip. He sent us an update every single day and lots of pictures of our kitty while we were away. We came home to a sparkling house and a contented kitty. We’ll book with Ethan again!”


14. Rachael B.

“I can’t say enough good things about Tuesday! We booked them last minute for our 6-month-old kitten, Izzy, right before a big snowstorm. Despite the crazy weather and short notice, Tuesday made time for a meet-and-greet, instantly putting us at ease. Their genuine love for animals was clear from the start—Izzy, who can be shy, warmed up to them right away. While we were gone, Tuesday gave us regular updates and took such great care of our home. We returned to a tidy house, clean dishes, fresh sheets, and a very happy kitty! It’s obvious Tuesday takes pride in what they do and truly connects with the pets they watch. We will absolutely be booking with Tuesday again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!”
