“Ray was absolutely amazing with Harleigh!!!!!! Literally, the moment he walked in and met her she jumped on him and was showing affection to him. Harleigh was completely comfortable with him and Ray kept me updated throughout the entire time with pictures and videos. I will absolutely ask Ray to watch Harleigh again. The best part is that I just rescued Harleigh and it was her first time with a sitter and Ray just made her feel safe.”


“Diane was such a blessing. She has a really sweet and caring demeanor and we knew right away she was the right sitter to watch our fur babies. In our week long trip she took great care of our home and 2 dogs and kept in touch throughout our trip. We feel relieved to have found her and will definitely rebook with her. Thank you Diane!!”


“Andrea did a phenomenal job! She has exceptional communication skills. I was constantly updated with great pictures of my happy pups. She spent plenty of time with them. She went above and beyond to ensure they were well taken care of and loved. I am always a bit nervous leaving Teddy and Ace for several days but she made it a seamless vacation. I am confident your pets will be in good hands! I would recommend Erika to anyone.”



“April is responsive, personable, and friendly. She stayed in our home and took great care of our cat and dog, who can be anxious and high-strung at times. We enjoyed getting pictures and updates while we were away. Highly recommend!”


“We love Coleen! She watched our puppies regularly and we are very thankful. Our puppies love her and she does incredibly well with our dog selective dog.”


“Destiny was absolutely amazing! We got multiple pictures of our pup throughout the weekend and shared updates each and every day. We will most definitely be asking her to dog sit again.”

“Xandi was kind, reliable and communicative from start to finish. They asked thoughtful questions and spent a good amount of time with my dog while I was gone for 5 days, making sure she got the attention and care she needed. Would definitely book Xandi again!”



“Annie was amazing. She sent tons of pictures, took my pup on plenty of walks, and went above and beyond with her pet and home care. Thank you so much!”


“Jamie watched our 2 dogs and cat at our house for us and made us feel relaxed and confident knowing they were being well taken care of. She provided updates and photos and was very communicative. We will definitely ask Jamie to sit for our pets again.”


“Renee is great. Simple as that. Our sometimes tweaky, neurotic terrier, Molly, loved every minute with her housesitter. Renee was thorough, attentive, playful, and giving. She went above and beyond to ensure Molly got all the snuggles, walks, required meds, and love she so needs. I don’t think she wanted her week with Renee to end. Renee is personable, on top of things, and clean. Was my home cleaner when I got back? Holy cow, it was. Thanks Renee. Book her now before I do, again and again.”


“Karolly was excellent! Very kind and responsive. She took great care of our St. Bernard for a few days. Walked her and played with her and kept us updated with photos and messages. Highly recommend.”


“Max was an awesome dog sitter in our home for our two pups while we were out of town for a week. He was very caring, followed directions, and was communicative throughout the stay. Thanks to him, our dogs were played with, cared for, and loved. We will definitely be using his services again in the future!”

“Sergio was great and communicative. I really appreciated his services and would highly recommend.”


“Ariel is a great pet/house sitter. She was flexible, responsive, and our dog took to her very quickly, which never happens. We will definitely book her for future dog sitting!”



“Camille was amazing! This was my first time using a dog sitting service and I a little nervous but couldn’t have been happier!! She was super communicative and sent pictures of the dogs throughout her stay which was nice. She was very easy to talk to and work with. The dogs were very happy and she kept my house in great order. I was nervous because I have an older dog who has G.I. issues and cancer so she is a little bit slower and fragile and needs to be brought out often. Then I have a younger dog who has some anxiety and is a bit reactive to the world outside our home... But she did amazing and the pups loved her !!”


“Jniyah did a wonderful job watching our 6 month old bulldog puppy - mochi got lots of exercise, love and attention and it was nice peace of mind knowing she was with someone well cared for while we were away. We absolutely will be keeping Jniyah in mind for future trips!”


“Joey did such a wonderful job watching our Sherlock! We were a bit nervous since we recently adopted him and he sometimes has some behavioral issues as he adjusts to his new environment. However, he was left in such calm and capable hands with Joey- he did such a good job walking/running him a lot and sounds like all went very well. Based on our convos before, Joey seemed to really “get it” and the needs of a dog still adjusting. We also loved receiving a ton of videos and updates!”


“Yulissa did a fantastic job with our puppy. She kept him occupied, worked with him on crate training, made sure he went potty and didn't have accidents and he was very comfortable with her. She was flexible and patient. We will be booking her again.”

Jo is great with dogs. Knows how to care for them. She puppy sat my 5mo old skittles with no issues. Thanks Jo! Will def have you over next trip!

Diane has been nothing short of wonderful with our senior dog. She is an excellent communicator, thoughtful, and caring to our dog’s unique quirks. We always try to rebook with Diane!

We used Ana for house pet sitting while out of town for a few days. We had a last minute change and couldn’t board our dog Rumi and decided to use a house pet sitter. Ana did a great job with communicating with me on all updates, sending several pictures and videos. I was a little nervous using a sitter but after a day, I knew Rumi was in great hands. I appreciated that Ana followed all our instructions to a tee and even took Rumi to the dog park when she notified she was getting a little restless. I would highly recommend using Ana again, she is amazing with dogs and is extremely kindhearted person.

Keely was great! We came home to happy, fed, and well loved pets. We really appreciated the regular pictures while we were gone, too. Highly recommend!

Sneydy was absolutely amazing taking care of my dog Avery. She was professional, communicative, and shared all the pictures while I was away for a long weekend, and it provided me with such peace of mind. I would definitely have Sneydy watch my girl again and highly recommend her!

Yuliia was great with our wild pack of 4 dogs! She communicated regularly including pictures. The dogs loved her. The dogs seem better behaved after being with her a few days! She provided great care to them and our home. Would highly recommend Yuliia for any dog sitting needs!

Amber House and Dog sat for us, and we had an amazing experience. She was respectful of our home, our two labradoodles loved her, and she was a great communicator. She also sent us photos each day of them on their walks! We will definitely book again and highly recommend her.

Camille, was awesome with the house sitting, our dog and bird. She is punctual, cares about details, and best of all a natural with animals. We were very pleased that we found Camille via Rover. She's a keeper!

Ray did an amazing job watching Henry and minding my house. Several updates a day including photos and videos. I came home to a happy pup, watered tomatoes and a tidy house that looked just as I had left it! Thank you Ray!

Karolly did a wonderful job taking care of our dog while we celebrated our wedding. Sent me lots of pictures and videos! Thank you Karolly!

Ashely was fantastic! Took great care of our pups, sent lots of pictures and communication was perfect.

Maxwell did a great job with our 3 dogs. He was a good communicator and sent us several pictures. I appreciated that he also reached out with any questions. The dogs were well taken care of and relaxed when I got home!

Ariel was great. I needed a dog sitter right away and she was here in record time. I will be booking her again (soon!). I trust her judgment and I feel very comfortable with her!

Corey and Robert took good care of our dog Lucy this weekend. Corey asked great questions about Lucy's routine and care, sent pictures every day, and left the house very clean for us returning.

Naylah was excellent with my anxious pup. She took care of everything and it was such a comfort knowing my dog was safe and happy at home.

Coleen was so helpful watching our dog, Brooke, when our initial sitter fell through. I felt confident that Brooke was taken care of throughout the stay. I received regular photos and thoughtful, descriptive updates that didn't leave me guessing as to how Brooke was being cared for. Coleen was flexible, knowledgeable, and responsive – I would definitely book with Coleen again!

Angelica went above and beyond. When our newborn son was kept an extra day at the hospital, she stayed an extra day to babysit our dogs. She didn’t complain and we didn’t have to find someone else in an emergency. She followed our rules and kept our Shibas happy and entertained. Communication was great. It was a pleasure to have to her care for our home and furbabies, and we’d have her come back anytime.

Max took fantastic care of our dog while we were gone for a long weekend. He sent lots of pictures, and we came home to a happy and healthy boy. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter for their canine companion!
