“Sarah took such amazing care of our dog, two cats, and home while we were out of town. She provided picture updates throughout the day. I didn’t have to worry at all about my babies while we were gone. Her communication was top notch. I will definitely use Sarah again!”
“Cammi stayed at our home and watched our bulldog for 4 days, and she was excellent! We came back to a clean home and a happy dog. Would have her back in a heartbeat!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and my expectations were beyond succeeded with Nick! After meeting Nick I was quickly at ease of trusting him with our fur family and our home while we went away on a family vacation. He is super organized, professional, and communication with him leading up to and while we were gone was great, not to mention I'm pretty sure our pups genuinely missed Nick after we came home! I could not ask for anything more, thank you Nick!!!”
“I will DEFINITELY use Josiah as often as possible! He followed all my instructions and my dog absolutely loved him. My beagle suffers from separation anxiety, and it's hard to find someone who not only compassionately understands his needs, but also with whom my dog feels comfortable and secure! When I arrived home, my dog was sleeping at Josiah's side. I think I finally found a perfect match!”
“Absolutely wonderful. Took care of my energetic puppy, my socially awkward doggo and my very weird cat with no problem. Left the place just as she found it and was an amazing communicator. They and I cant wait till she comes back. So appreciate!”
“Diane was a fantastic sitter! She was amazing and easy to work with throughout the process. She stayed in my home while I traveled and my deeply anxious rescue dog and my cats never missed me. Diane kept me informed while I was away, followed all my instructions, and my pets were safe and happy in my absence. I look forward to hiring her again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or rebook her. She’s truly a thoughtful and special person who will care for your pets so you can relax while you’re away.”
“Karlee was such an amazing rover! She kept in touch and sent us pictures of our baby while we were away. Our Hank will be looking forward to Karlee watching him again in a few weeks. Highly recommend using her!! She is such a sweetheart.”
“Gabbie is an excellent sitter. She has taken care of our dog, Ruby, multiple times. Gabbie is communicative, understating of my pet's needs, and followed all directions very well. Ruby loves Gabbie and I look forward to working with her much more in the future!”
“Erin went above and beyond for my sweet senior dog Abigail. She stayed in our home while we were on a long weekend trip. Our dog wasn't eating after we had left so Erin homemade her special meals to get her eating again. I will definitely be using Erin as our go-to when we go out of town! Thanks again Erin!”
“Rachel was absolutely wonderful. She made me feel completely comfortable and confident that my babies were in the best hands, which allowed me to fully focus on my business while traveling. I would give her ten stars if I could. Truly exceptional care and communication from start to finish. I will absolutely be a repeat booker.”
“Jennifer was fantastic with our two beagles! She came over for a meet and greet and they immediately loved her. We had such a busy day that we couldn’t focus on our pups during, and Jennifer gave us peace of mind and a lot of photos and updates! She was on time, professional, kind, and a great pup-sitter. I would highly recommend Jennifer if you want your dogs to be in good hands for a stress free time away! :)”
“Taylor was such a great sitter for my dog and I couldn't be happier with my choice to use her. She gave me frequent updates while I was away and I had full confidence that my pup was in great hands. She made my trip so worry free and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I've had both cats and dogs as family members for many years. Now I currently love my family and friends' pets as if they were my own. I currently work in the office 4 days per week but can leave after 4 hours and be home around noon. I'm a home body so I'm comfortable snuggling and spending playtime with your pets. I usually watch my friends and family's pets in the comfort of their own homes. I often have their pets at my home as well but usually for short periods, though sometimes overnight. I usually initiate playtime and welcome snuggling.
“Shiyuan was the best dog sitter i ever met! She sent every hour updates and my dogs loved her! You can really trust her with dogs! She takes good notes for dog’s routine and follow the directions. Will definitely hire for my upcoming trips.”
“Autumn did a great job staying with our senior dogs over the Thanksgiving holiday. We came home to a clean house and calm dogs. We will absolutely use her services again.”
“Rebekkah was amazing with Tucker. We had some very serious health issues occur while she was sitting for him, and she handled everything with kindness, grace, and professionalism. Her communication was great. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
About: I have had dogs in my life for many years now! I adore dogs. My family has own three goldens, one German Shepard, and one black lab! I’ve cared for them my whole life, including feeding, bathing, playing with them, working on training, etc. I work part-time until school starts in the fall. I have tons of time to see and play with your babies! I have my own form of transportation so I’m accessible at all times of the day! I will always make sure to ask questions when I’m not sure on something because I know how nerve racking it can be to leave your baby with someone you don’t know. I will also always double check any instructions to make sure I’m doing things perfectly to ensure nothing goes wrong. I am always up for playing with them and cuddling whenever they allow me to.
“Alex was very responsive and took wonderful care of my dog Binny and our house! Binny can be reactive toward other dogs on walks and Alex didn’t blink an eye about managing that. She was great with him!”

Jasmine was so so wonderful with my dog! She stayed for 5 nights and she was beyond accommodating, attentive and communicative. I got to see how excited he was to see Jasmine and it spoke volumes to how well she took care of him - already have plans to rebook!!
Rohit has pretty much become Rocco and Lilo's favorite person! We have never been away from them without feeling guilty, until having him stay with them. They were happy and well cared for and the pictures he sent were so good for our hearts. I hesitate to tell you all how wonderful he is, because we want to hog him;)
Tyra did a great job watching my dog and house this weekend. Roxky isn’t always the easiest with new people, but he took to her right away, which says a lot. She kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos, so I always knew he was doing well. She also left a really nice, detailed summary of her stay,what they did together, his eating schedule, and bathroom routine,which was actually fun to read and showed how much attention she gave him. On top of that, the house was exactly how I left it. Overall just a super easy, stress-free experience. I’d definitely book with her again.
Stevie stayed at our home for four nights to take care of our two very high-energy (30 lb) dogs, and I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her. From the very beginning, I felt completely at ease. She came over ahead of time to meet us and the dogs, and her kindness and genuine, calm energy immediately stood out. Leaving your dogs is never easy, but I had zero hesitation trusting her. While we were away, she consistently sent updates and photos, which meant so much. It was clear she wasn’t just “watching” them—she was actively playing with them, engaging with them, and giving them real attention and care. She also handled giving Joe his daily medication without any issues, which was a huge relief. On top of that, she went above and beyond in ways I didn’t expect. She kept the house incredibly clean—honestly, you wouldn’t have known anyone had stayed here. She even unloaded my dishwasher that I hadn’t gotten to before we left. I had offered to stock groceries for her during her stay, and she graciously declined—she truly didn’t ask for a single thing. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely loved her. They were happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for when we got home. We would LOVE to have Stevie back for our next trip in June—and honestly, every trip after that. She is an absolute gem, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely kind to care for their pets.
Alexandra was absolutely wonderful!! She took excellent care of George. She sent us photos everyday which we really appreciated! She made George’s day by giving him a daily walk. She stepped up when he needed some extra care after a medical procedure. She also took great care of our home. We would love to have Alexandra again and would highly recommend her.
