We have used Rachelle a few times now. Twice for day trips and most recently for several days and over nights. My animals bonded with her instantly. Even my cat that’s can not be bothered to like anyone loves Rochelle. I never worry about them when she’s with them. She seems to really care about the animals. Beyond that she leaves my apartment as she found it no matter how much I tell her to make herself at home. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future!

Navya took care of our dog Crow and house sat for us for three weeks while we were away. We could not be more satisfied. :-) She was very responsive and easy to communicate with before her stay and during her stay. She took our dog on long walks, bathed her and loved her. She asked questions about care in detail - even some that I had not thought about. Also, she took very good care of our house and everything was cleaner than when we left it upon return. I would be more than happy to recommend Navya to anyone. Zeynep

Erica was great! Our dog immediately warmed up to her so we knew he would be in great hands. Erica was very responsive over the app, sent pics and updates, and was a super respectful houseguest as well.

Casey was wonderful! We know our dog is in good hands with her. Our dog got an ear infection the day we were supposed to leave for our trip and Casey was super helpful with administering the medication and keeping us updated.

Billie made my first experience with Rover a seamless and stressless experience. From the meet and greet to the way she continuously updated me via messages, to the way she left the apartment I never worried and my dog Maybe had a great time with her! Will be using her in the future!

Mia is so great. She has previously taken care of our cat and is fantastic so we used her again. She sends daily updates with photos and videos, our cat LOVES her, and she is super attentive to every detail (including leaving our home in great condition). Absolutely recommend her!

Beto was such a great sitter for our dog! We received lots of pictures and updates as we were away - we loved following along in the adventures and trips to the park! Beto went above and beyond not only for our pup but for us too including cleaning and a lot of thoughtfulness when we came home late from a trip. Our dog had a blast with him and all went smoothly. We can’t wait to have him sit our pup again in the future!!

Leslie was wonderful! She was so attentive and doting on Buster. She was very transparent with her arrival and departure times and sent us photos and videos throughout the weekend updating us on Buster and how he was doing! We were very hesitant to leave Buster, but after a few hours with Lelise and her attentiveness, I became more comfortable with the process. She is truly the best and we cannot wait to use her again! Buster let her 'into his pack' which is hard to do, but it just goes to show what a great and trusting person she really is!

Allison was a great house and pet sitter. She provided regular updates and when I got home my apartment was clean and my doggy was happy. My dog is reactive which makes me nervous when I leave her with sitters but Allison was reassuring and I was glad Mae had no issues.

Alona watched over my two dogs while I was away on a work trip, and she was great with communicating/sending updates with cute pictures. She was also flexible and understanding when timing needed to change a little, and asked great questions during our neet and greet. Definitely would recommend her and will be asking her to stay with them again!

I can't say enough about how great Armando is with Widget! We were out of town for a week and I didn't worry once because I knew he was in such good hands. Armando is the best - sends lots of pictures, can handle our senior pup's needs, and takes him on great adventures around town.

Ann did great with Rufus! He loved hanging with her and is already excited for her to come over again. Ann was very responsive when I texted for pictures to help me miss Rufus a little less, and took great care of my home while sitting for Rufus. Highly recommend Ann for sitting services!
