“Oli was such an amazing dog sitter!!! She sent pictures and updates as I was gone and really made me and my baby comfortable. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Averi was great with my fur-babies. I have two senior goldens and a cat who is very cautious. I am always nervous about leaving them with a new person, but she was wonderful. She communicated well before and throughout the stay. I came back from a week, with happy healthy animals, and a tidy home. I would definitely recommend her.”

I came home to happy, relaxed pups and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again! 🐾💕”

Maria watched my dog for a weekend and she was wonderful! Took great care of my home and my sweet girl. Would totally recommend!

Lila was amazing! So communicative with me and very attentive with George! Would recommend 10/10, wish I needed a dogsitter more tbh

We had Alexis stay with our dog for five nights. She was communicative and flexible and clean. But I must tell you that... I'm half tempted to tell you that you was horrible. Terrible. This way no one will book her and I can always book her and she won't won't be tied up with other people lol.

Vivian was great! This was my first time with a Rover sitter while out of the country and couldn't have asked for a better sitter. She even offered to check in on Mushu in case my flight got delayed. Vivian also has a cat with feline herpes so I felt at ease knowing she knew how to handle his needs and meds.

Haley was absolutely amazing. She kept me updated on my babies the entire time she was there with pics and messages. She took care of my home as though it was hers. I would absolutely recommend Haley to anyone who wants peace of mind when leaving your babies when having to travel. Thank you Haley!!

Daniel is always so kind and courteous. His communication is always so reassuring to know our animals are in great hands!

Erica took excellent care of our pets while we were out of town. She was very communicative and send plenty of photos and updates. I would recommend her and would happily hire her again.

Steph was amazing with our pup Bella! She stepped in on very short notice and stayed with Bella all weekend, which we truly appreciated. Throughout her stay, Steph kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. We came home to a happy (and wonderfully tired!) puppy — no easy task with Bella’s energy! Thank you, Steph, for taking such great care of her. We’re looking forward to having you watch Bella again soon!

We love having Amber stay with Ruby! Ruby loves her so much, and Ruby doesn’t love many people! We always know she’s in great hands when we leave her at home with Amber. Will continually rebook!

Jordyn was great! She was available super last minute July4th weekend. We set up a meet and greet same day and I was able to show her the routine for my pup and she followed it to a tee. She gave me consistent updates and communication regarding my pup! I felt super comfortable with her caring for him and he loved her. She also was super respectful of my place. I highly recommend her!

Emily did such an amazing job! She sent updates and photos of our pups and we could tell they loved her. She went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were well taken care of. Highly recommend trusting Emily to take care of your fur babies!

Madi watched my dachshund puppy while I was away and was great! She sent tons of picture updates during the week and kept me updated on how he was. Definitely will have her come hang with Theo again in in the future!

Clark took great care of our angsty hound (who was a big fan) and cat whole house sitting. She was communicative and very accommodating when our travel times changed. Would highly recommend!

Kaitlyn was great! Very kind and helpful with our doggos and took care of our home when pet sitting. Great communication and an awesome sitter! Would recommend and will certainly ask her to help out again.

Rose took great care of our dog and cat for several days while we were away. She keeps in regular contact and we love getting updates and pictures! The house was clean and in order when we got back to two happy pets. We are so grateful for all she does to make sure our pets are loved and cared for when we are away.

Abbey was great with Sophie! Abbey house-sat Soph and Sophie seemed to enjoy herself! I enjoyed the peace of mind of receiving a mid-booking photo of Sophie enjoying her walk. Thanks Abbey!

Mo was awesome, she sent updates and pictures of our pup while we were gone. She left the house just as she found it.

Jamie was absolutely awesome with Marley!!! She took him on long walks, played with him and fed him!! She sent me some pictures of him as well!! It was so good to see that Marley was so happy with her!! I also received a page long summary of the weekend!! Marley has some hot spots and she gave me some suggestions on how to help with them!!!
