1. Erin H.

“Erin was a Godsend for us. We needed a pet sitter for our dog Millie at the last moment and she saved the day. Erin is a very friendly and warm person who loves animals and Millie got along with her immediately. Would definitely use her again.”


2. Kelsey I.

“Kelsey was truly fantastic. Her communication is top notch and we felt completely comfortable leaving her with our dogs. The dogs clearly loved her, and Kelsey loved on them as if they were her own dogs. Looking forward to having Kelsey stay with our dogs again!”


3. Julia R.


“Excellent! We felt completely safe leaving our shy rescue with Julia. She was attentive, very caring, incredibly responsible and kept us informed through the whole stay with texts and pictures. Very pleased with our first interaction with Julia and Rover.com”


4. Joseph J.

“Joseph was great, sent pictures and communicated planning well. He was flexible with our meet and greet too. I've already rebooked with him as I'm moving and need extra pet care at this time. Thanks, Joseph!”


5. Thienne R.

“Thienne and her husband did a great job watching our 3 dogs! They were on time, kept us updated during the day and sent pictures. Our pups loved them and settled in nicely for cuddles all weekend. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies and home, we appreciate you both!”


6. Aaron F.
“Aaron has been walking our dogs daily now for quite some time (a year, maybe more now!). He is timely , communicates well and is amazing with our furbabies. One of our pugs is very hesitant with people and gets very anxious, Aaron was great at the beginning soothing her anxiety and giving her the space she needed and has continued to be a great caretaker while walking her, knowing she gets very anxious around too many people. He’s helped us out of a few binds on weekends as well when we planned poorly and needed someone to take the pups out for us. We definitely recommend Aaron to everyone we know!”


7. Kristin L.

“Kristin did a great job taking care of our animals & home. Good communication and easy to work with. Thanks Kristin!”


8. Jeffrey M.

“Jeff did a great job with our cat Gretzky. Gretzky is a 20 year old who has some special care needs and Jeff was able to give the cat medicine, feed him his special diet etc. We will definitely hire Jeff again as he is reliable and a good communicator who really likes cats. Highly recommended.”


9. Grace C.
“Grace has grown up with multiple dogs since she was born. She has a deep love for animals and is very responsible. She will provide tailored care for each pets needs from feeding schedules, exercise routines and administering medication if needed. . She knows how to make a pet feel safe by playing with the dog or offering companionship while owners are away. Grace's attention to detail ensures that all aspects of a pet's routine is followed and will communicate often so the owner has peace of mind.”


10. Jennifer B.

“It’s so much easier to relax on a vacation when you know your dogs are being cared for so well, and that is how we feel when Jennifer stays with ours! She is considerate and attentive, sending pictures and updates often. As attached as our two are to me, it’s obvious they have a great time with her!”

“Julie did a great job with the boys. She cleaned up after her self and took time to brush the dogs. Three Newfoundlands can be challenging she did great.”


15. Cathy K.

“Cathy did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Ruthie. She stayed over at our house as we knew its where our dog would be more comfortable. Cathy took Ruthie on lots of walks during the day and the one morning Ruthie wouldn't pee on the walk, Cahty sent her son over to walk her at lunch time to make sure her needs were met. She was comfortable having the dog out on our electric fence and sent us just the right amount of updates and pictures. She is dependable, reliable, kind and you can tell is a lover of dogs and all animals. The house was just how we left it and she even put the sheets in the washing machine. We will definitely be using Cathy in the future.”


16. Taa E.

“Taa is an excellent sitter - I have a puppy who because he's young needs a little extra TLC and guidance, since he is working on his manners. But she was great with him and accommodating. She was also on time and communicative, both of which I really appreciate. Would definitely recommend and hire again!”


17. Randy D.

“Randy was extremely professional and accommodating. Stella takes awhile to warm up to people and I think (in her way) she took to Randy. I always hate leaving Stella so the pictures were greatly appreciated.”


18. Mikaela L.

“Mikaela was great with our dogs! We have a hard time leaving them in anyone’s care but she made us feel comfortable from our first encounter. While we were away, she updated us on how they were doing, which was important to us! She made sure they were happy and tired! Most importantly, we trusted her. We will definitely use Mikaela again in the future.”


19. Srikari T.

“Absolutely thrilled with the dog-sitting service we received from Srikari! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Srikari was incredibly attentive and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs felt comfortable and safe. She kept us updated throughout the stay with photos and messages, which really put our mind at ease and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation. Our dogs absolutely loved her, and it is clear that she has a genuine passion for animals. We’ll definitely be using her services again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”


20. Sheyanne W.

“Sheyanne was great with my nervous fog. He is a Great Dane (big boy!) & can take a while to warm up to new people but she was really calm and allowed him to take his time. Loved the pictures she shared and that she was able to take him for a walk in the cold was awesome!”
