1. Matthew R.

“Matt was fantastic! He came over to meet Yogi before our trip, which put us at ease since it was our first time leaving her. His communication was excellent, and Yogi seemed well taken care of with plenty of cuddles and walks. We will definitely rebook Matt for our next trip!”


2. Kelsie S.

“Kelsie was the perfect sitter for us! She was extremely professional, our pups loved her, and that was exactly what we were hoping for. She sent photos often, which made us smile and reinforced our decision to work with her. All communication was clear and occurred with perfect frequency. We will most definitely be asking for Kelsie again. She was very respectful of our home and has a great personality. Many thanks from us and of course peanut and Annie 🩷”


3. Lindsey P.

“Lindsey was amazing! They took excellent care of my dog, kept me updated with pictures, and made sure my pup was happy and comfortable. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in such great hands. Highly recommend!”


4. Braydon R.

“Braydon was 12/10. I will absolutely be using him in the future if he is available. My dogs were very obviously well taken care of, and it relived a lot of my stress while being gone. Communication and updates were better than any other rover or sitter i’ve used before.”




5. Laurie N.

“Laurie took great care of our dog and cat. She followed all of our detailed instructions to the letter and gave us multiple updates per day, which really made us feel at ease. Our pets seemed to really like her. We will definitely be trusting her with the safety and comfort of our pets again in the future.”


6. Pamela E.

“Pamela has come over to watch my shitzu and labradoodle twice now, for 3 days each visit. She is amazing with them, they are happy to see her and get lots of cuddles. She goes above and beyond by helping pick up their poop in the backyard, helping doing light cleaning in the kitchen, and washes and tries the sheets from the room she sleeps in. Pamela is also amazing at keeping me updated multiple times a day. Highly recommend that you use Pamela’s service!”


7. Nichole T.


“Niki did an incredible job house-sitting for our shih tzu puppy, Douglas! From the moment we left, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. Niki kept us updated with adorable pictures and messages, and it was clear that Douglas was having a great time. She followed all of our care instructions perfectly and even went the extra mile to ensure Douglas felt loved and entertained. We came home to a happy, healthy puppy and a spotless house. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience – thank you so much, Niki! Highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”


8. Melisa H.

“Melisa did a great job taking care of our dog and home while away. She sent lots of updates which was really appreciated. We’ve had Melisa dog sit for us before and would recommend her to others!”


9. Meranda S.

“Hands down best experience I’ve ever had! Meranda went above and beyond and far exceeded my expectations! She was so kind and friendly, making it so easy to not have a worry while traveling out of the country. If you’re looking for someone to take exceptional care of your precious family member, Meranda is your girl!”


10. Abby P.

“Abby is amazing! We appreciate her so much. We have three dogs and a cat. Two of our dogs are super sweet with everybody, but our black lab/pitty mix is a connoisseur of people. He does not like just anybody. However, he immediately had no trouble with Abby. He was wagging his tail; let her pet him within a few minutes of meeting her for the first time. We requested Abby stay at the house over the weekend; the dogs and cat were cared for and loved all weekend. We can tell that Abby is an animal lover.”




11. Lindsey Y.

“Lindsey provided excellent care for our dog Oscar. She provided an occasional update and communicated with us well. Would recommend Lindsey to anyone needed a dog sitter”


12. Belle C.

“We are so happy we found Belle. She was a great in house sitter for our big guy Tony. She treated our home like her own and it was just as clean and tidy as when we left. She was attentive to Tony’s needs and did everything we asked of her. Communication was great and we would love to book her again.”


13. Ashton W.
“Ashton has provided loving care for my pets on multiple occasions. She is attentive, compassionate, and communicates any needs or concerns. She treats my pets as if they're her own.”


14. Steven R.
“Steven has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my pets! He has stayed at my house multiple times, taking care of my dogs and cat, and I couldn’t be happier with his care. He’s reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. My dogs adore him—they get plenty of playtime, walks, and attention, and I always come home to happy, well-cared for pups. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my pets are in such great hands. I highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Let me know if you’d like to personalize it further!”


15. Dena S.

“Dena is excellent. My dog is very happy when she cares for him, he does not seem anxious when I am back. Dena’s communication is top, always responding timely and efficiently. She’s been flexible with changes both times I’ve booked her and she follows instructions to the T. Dena definitely goes above and beyond.”


16. Tangina R.

“Amazing, professional and personable! We booked suuuuper last minute....as in a few hours before and she took care of our two pups like they were her own. Highly recommend! We found our go-to pet sitter!”

19. Donya B.
“Donya has assisted in fostering several litters of bunnies that have found their way into our backyard, as well as a litter of kittens that were born after she saved a pregnant stray cat from the streets. She has even temporarily taken care of a goose that was shot down by unruly hunters in the back of our neighborhood. On top of her rescues, she provides a loving home for 3 dogs, as well as her cat.”


20. Patty K.

“Patty is wonderful dog sitter. She takes incredible care of my 15 year old bichon that requires extra effort. He's on meds and needs a little more attention. Patty gives him that. She also is wonderful with my 3 year old mini poodle. I highly recommend Patty!”
