Destanie took great care of our kittens while we were away for 2 weeks! She was very accommodating to our care requests and quickly responsive when messaged. When we returned, we could absolutely tell the cats were well cared for the whole time!

Genniver has been a great help with taking care of my baby! Ollie has really enjoyed her company and it’s obvious how thoughtful Genniver is about taking care of your animals. She even took time to come meet us before having to take care of him and I really appreciate that.

Fantastic. Samantha is fantastic! She’s punctual, warm, and incredibly easy to communicate with. I immediately felt comfortable which is saying a lot for me as Ace’s mom. She’s also very responsible and respectful of my home. Ace loves her and gets sooooo excited to see her on walk days!! Don’t hesitate to contact Samantha—your search is over!

This is the 2nd time Tim has taken care of our pups & I can not say enough about him! For years our family has not taken any trips all together because of worrying about our pets. At least one of us would have to stay back with them. Now that we’ve found someone that we can trust we can FINALLY all go together as a whole family! I am so grateful to Tim & the memories I’ve been able to make with my grandchildren! Tim is so kind & patient with our emotionally high maintenance dogs. In the past, no one could even get our bulldog to come out of his crate if we weren’t here & our rescue pup is terrified of everyone outside of our family but in a short period of time Tim had completely won them over. They absolutely love him! Tim is professional, reliable & excellent at giving updates with photos. I really appreciate him & everything that he does for our family! I will definitely be asking him for his help again in the future!

I have five fur babies, three are totally comfortable with sitters, but two are adopted puppies who came from abusive situations. Even at two years old and with training, they are still very hesitant around new people. Samuel has been incredibly patient, taking the time to meet with them multiple times and working at their pace to help them feel safe and comfortable, especially knowing he’ll be pet sitting for a full week. He has been gracious, calm, and understanding in every interaction, and his positive outlook toward the dogs—even with their standoffish nature—has meant so much to me. It’s clear he truly cares about animals and understands their individual needs. I would 100% recommend Samuel for any pet sitting or drop-in visits and feel completely confident leaving my pets in his care.

Couldn’t do trips without Erica. We’ve used her multiple times over the last couple of years and I always know our dogs are taken care of when we can book her. We have a senior dog and a dog who is a little feisty and loud with newcomers, but both love her!

Ericka did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Molly! This was my first time using Rover so I wasn't sure how it would go having a new person take care of her doing the drop-in visits, but she loved Ericka! I also really appreciated the notes and photo updates from each check-in. I will definitely be booking her again!

5 stars is not high enough for Mandy! She’s always so reliable even when we ask her for a booking with short notice. One of our dogs was nervous around her for the first couple days she came to watch them and she did a great job communicating with us to try to find a solution to make her more comfortable. She is now always happy to see Mandy when she comes over! Mandy always gives a great update on the dogs and provides pictures during every drop in visit. We highly recommend her and will continue using her in the future!

We are so grateful we found Mikelah! We were nervous about leaving our dog Sophie with anyone besides family or friends, but she made the entire experience so comfortable and stress-free. She was beyond amazing with our pets, very communicative, punctual, and thoughtful throughout every visit. Her photo updates were honestly the best and gave us peace of mind while we were away. You can truly tell she cares about the animals she watches. We will absolutely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Cierra did a fantastic job taking care of our girl Nebby! Her communication was excellent—she kept us updated after every visit with a picture and a quick summary, which we really appreciated. Nebby clearly loved her, and it was a relief knowing she was in such good hands. Cierra was also great about letting us know if the schedule needed to be adjusted and made sure Nebby got her meds as needed. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Amy was absolutely amazing with our two dogs! She took such great care of them and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We especially appreciated the extra attention she gave to our newest pup, JB, helping him feel comfortable and loved. It was clear from the updates and photos that both dogs were happy, well cared for, and having a great time. We never hesitate to book Amy again—our pups already can't wait for their next visit!

During the visit my dogs were more nervous than usual and needed a little extra time to warm up. What stood out was that she went above and beyond. She picked up food and water from Target curbside due to our unforeseen situation. That level of effort and follow through meant a lot. Due to my dogs being a bit anxious, I truly appreciate her communication, professionalism, and the extra care she showed.
