1. Jennifer M.
“Jen is great with all of my pets and takes great care of my house during house sitting. I appreciate being able to travel for work and not having to worry about Pasha and Eadan.”
2. Rachel T.
“Rachel was the best house sitter we've had from Rover so far, and that's saying a lot, because we've had many good and a couple great sitters. Her response time and demeanor were fantastic. She did an additional meet and greet for our German Shepherd to become familiar with her. She was flexible for our meeting times and prompt for all our appointments. For the actual sitting, she gave us a heads up on her availability. Also, we had a long list of requests that she was able to accommodate, including care for our garden. She sent plenty of photos and updates of our animals both having fun and relaxing. We couldn't ask for more.”
3. Sean B.
“Sean was terrific with our pets and took great care of our home!! He was prompt with communication, kind and professional. We are lucky to have found a caring individual that we can trust with our pets and our home. It is such a peace of mind knowing our cat and dog were in good hands. We will definitely use Sean again.”
4. Lamarr G.
“Lamarr was great with our dogs! He is a very pleasant person to speak w and his dedication to my pets showed with how happy and relaxed they seemed when we got home! Well done.”
5. Jessalyn S.
“Jessalyn was AMAZING. She was so thorough in taking notes in our meet and greet, and went out of her way to make our dog comfortable without forcing any interaction. She sent regular updates and adorable pictures, and we felt so good knowing Beanie was having a good time. Our dog even ate the first day Jessalyn was there, which isn’t typical when we aren’t home. Knowing she had experience with reactive dogs was also a huge relief. She is an incredible find, and anyone would be fortunate to book her to care for their pets! We have already rebooked!”
6. Ariel C.
“I cannot thank Ariel enough! She was extremely attentive, sent lots of pics, and went above and beyond! I highly recommend Ariel and will be using her again! Mack enjoyed her company ??”
7. Laura B.
“Trustworthy, communicative and kind. I will definitely book Laura again.”
8. Kyra R.
“Kyra took wonderful care of our dog. I highly recommend her!”
9. Dawn O.
“Dawn is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! We are so happy to have found her and can’t wait to have her visit our baby in the future. ? She texted photos throughout the day and kept us up to date along the way. Thank you for loving our dog like your own!”
10. Julia B.
“Julia was wonderful with our labradoodle! She was incredibly responsive and took excellent care of our pup and our house while we were away!”
11. Erica T.
“Erica was the perfect caregiver for my anxious Mini Aussie while I went on vacation! She stayed in my home and sent photos throughout to keep me assured that my Wrigley was happy! I would recommend Erica to anyone needing to find a safe, friendly and dependable caregiver for their pet.”
12. Rachelle T.
“Rachelle was wonderful for my anxious pup and her anxious mom. I never left her before with an overnight dog sitter and Rachelle is amazing. She sent updates, pictures and videos. The first time I met her I knew my pup would be in wonderful hands and my house after 4 days was better than I left it. She is caring, I have already booked her next stay. Thanks so much Rachelle”
13. Tiarra L.
“would highly recommend Tiarra for anything! She left our home in perfect condition and our boys were so happy! She was a great communicator and patient with our temperamental chihuahua.”
14. Austin M.
“Austin took care of my dog, Buster, while I was away on vacation. He did an excellent job, making sure to complete all responsibilities. He will be watching him again this month, so I would absolutely choose him to pet sit.”
15. Sydney T.
“Sydney is amazing with both my dogs and cats. My shy calico who never comes out for anyone (including family she’s known her whole life) comes and out and hangs out with her. I never need to worry about my animals when traveling for work and everything is clean when I get home. Dogs are happy, cats are happy, I’m happy.”
16. Alicia M.
“Alicia is the best sitter we've ever had! We have a very needy dog and a very 'interesting' cat, who are both super picky about the humans they like, and when we saw how much they loved Alicia since day 1, we knew we would never have another pet sitter! We can go on vacation and be 100% at peace because we know Toto and Marbles are in great hands. She's great with instructions and always goes above and beyond giving them her love and sending us updates. Cannot recommend her enough! :)”
17. Angela L.
“Kind and loving Thank you!”
18. Rachelle S.
About: I have been dog-sitting for over 18 years and everyone has become returning customers. I love dogs of all kinds. I have taken care of dogs from all walks of life including show-dogs. I have taken care of anything from retrievers to yorkies to pit bulls and everything in between. The smallest dog I've watched was 4lbs and the largest was 220lbs. Everyone I dog-sit for are amazed at how quickly their pup connects with me. In most cases, it is almost instant. I've never met a dog I didn't love and I've never met a dog that didn't love me back. I have experience taking dogs to parks, walking, giving medicine, giving baths, and giving plenty of belly rubs :) I do allow dogs on my furniture but if you do not allow that, I can play by those rules as well as long as you let me know. If you have any questions, just ask! I am super excited to meet your 4-legged best friend. I work 3 minutes from home and can come home to give potty breaks regularly if it is on a work day (Tuesday thru Friday). If it is a weekend, I will be home and available for playtime, potty breaks and all the pup needs. I can also be available for multiple day/night stays for folks who need to go out of town. I live alone in a non-smoking environment in a quiet neighborhood, with a fenced in yard. I do have one dog but he is great with other dogs and even if your pup isn't good with other dogs, I have procedures in place to keep my pup away in a separate part of the house.
19. Mari F.
“She really cared a lot about Teds comfort and making sure something he was happy. Very kind and trust worthy, I definitely will re-book! Thanks again Mari”
20. Malcolm M.
“Malcom is amazing! We loved him from the first time we met him he has such a positive energy and nature love for animals, and Quinn or 6yr old Great Dane was in love with him as soon as he came through the door. Over the weekend while we were out Malcom stayed at the house and updated us with photos and texts and we we’re so appreciative to have someone we knew and trusted taking care of our baby. We can’t wait to have him back! Thanks Malcom!”
