1. Karla N.
“Karla has taken great care of my greyhound Karl and cat Benny multiple times. Our house is in great shape when we return, and the boys seem very happy and relaxed when we return home. I highly recommend her!”
2. Jessica P.
“Jessica loves animals more than anyone else I know. She has two dogs and a cat of her own, and she is always taking care of the pets of her friends and family when they are away. She always treats them like her own, and will try to give them a "vacation" too, with extra walks, treats, etc. I can't recommend Jessica highly enough. Your pet will be in safe hands and well taken care of!”
3. Meredith C.
“Meredith was great with Waffles while I was abroad. She checked in regularly with updates and sent pictures. She also left the house in great shape when she left! Highly recommend.”
4. Jada G.
“Jada was very responsive, she took great care of my dogs that can be a handful, sent me daily updates and pictures. Highly recommended. Thanks Jada.”
5. Karen H.
“My dog, Honey, is a senior 50-pound pitbull with reactive tendencies. This makes it difficult to find a dogsitter who is both reliable and able to handle her on walks... so we are very lucky to have found Karen who has watched Honey on a number of occasions including daytime dogsitting, overnight dogsitting, as well as just walks. I highly recommend Karen - she is responsible, follows directions to the T, and most importantly, is great with dogs!”
6. Hannah M.
“Hannah is great! This was my first time using Rover so I was a little anxious but my pup loved her. He has really bad anxiety so the fact that he was calm when she was here was amazing, we will definitely book with Hannah again!”
7. Emma R.
“Bravo Emma!!! She pulled it off! Rocky is old with special needs and I was so worried to go on this trip. House looked fantastic when I got back and he seemed happy and well taken care of. Would recommend Emma’s care for anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!! Bravo!!”
8. Daniela C.
“Daniela was wonderful with our dog and cat. She was communicative and left the house in great shape. It was great knowing that our babes were very well taken care of!”
9. Elena D.
“Elena was punctual, dependable, an easy communicator, along with being the best, loving animal sitter. My kitty and pup were safe and sound and happy when I returned home. I feel she is super trustworthy too and felt comfortable with her in my home. I would pick her every time.”
10. Davis M.
“Davis did a great job watching my white GSD Tundra while I was away, a few pre-visits to get acquainted as I have never been away from her and was unsure how she would do in my absence. They both bonded well for a great stree-free trip. I would strongly recommend Davis for any dog, small or large who needs to be watched while the owner is away. Great job! Thanks again”
11. Jesse H.
“Jesse was so awesome! He was super responsive, clean and helped ease our worries about an elderly dog we have that suffers from extreme anxiety during storms. It stormed while we were away and felt that she had great are with Jesse! He followed all of our asks/tricks with her. We will for sure be a repeat customer.”
12. Liana H.
“Liana was an absolutely exceptional sitter! My cat warmed up to her immediately, and she sent lots of lovely photo updates throughout the 6 day stay. Couldn't recommend Liana highly enough!”
13. Sam L.
“We received photos and updates every day and Logan loved her. Would gladly book again. 🙂”
14. Georgia K.
“Georgia was so accommodating for a last-minute dog and cat sitting. She is wonderful with animals. She was prompt, responsive, and we are so thankful she was available! Thanks, Georgia! She left our house immaculate. She couldn’t have been better.”
15. Lance O.
“Oh my goodness. Lance was an absolute hero for me and my pups. I got stuck in the wrath of Hurricane Helene and couldn't get home for an extra day, but Lance was able to stay with them, giving me one less thing to stress about as I made my way home. Even without that heroism, though, he was incredibly thoughtful and thorough in his care for them. And they adored him.”
16. Mae H.
“Mea was so considerate when staying in my apartment, she left the place cleaner then when she got there!! She also took so many amazing pictures of my dog I could tell he enjoyed being with her while I was away ❤️ Highly recommend hiring Mae if you’re looking for someone sweet to take care of your furry family.”
17. Bri B.
“Bri was an outstanding dog/house sitter! She took wonderful care of our 15 year old yellow lab and we are impressed with her communication and attention to detail. Bri sent daily updates and pictures while we were away and our sweet dog, and home, were both very well cared for. We’ve already booked her again!”
18. Katherine L.
“Katherine is a treasure and I am incredibly grateful for the outstanding care she provided for my two dogs in my home while I was out of town for four days. While I think my dogs are relatively well-behaved, they are high energy, one is rather large, and well, there's two of them. When she met my babies, she didn't bat an eye at any potential eccentricities I disclosed, nor at the amount of exercise they require. Throughout my time away (and per my request), Katherine sent me photos, videos, and brief updates on the pups. Upon returning home, my apartment was in perfect condition and my dogs were happy. I will happily book Katherine again ANY time I need a sitter. It was the best experience. One additional note: my wedding the weekend after Katherine sat for us. My dogs were a part of my ceremony, but very last minute the transportation for the dogs to the venue fell through. I messaged Katherine in a panic and without hesitation, she agreed to transport my dogs to and from the venue and hang out with them and keep them calm until the ceremony. Not only did she save my wedding, but I got to see first-hand how much my dogs love her. There are no words for the appreciation I have.”
19. Maria M.
“Dogs absolutely love Maria and she takes such great care of them! Appreciate her so much.”
