1. Lauren R.

“Lauren was great with my two pups. She sent plenty of pictures while I was away and they looked happy in every one. My one dog was in need of medication which Lauren had no issue with administering to her. I highly recommend Lauren!”


2. Megan F.

“Megan is amazing!! She stayed with our 14yr old for several nights in our home and took exceptional care of everything! She was always super responsive and sent pictures every day :) We would happily have her come again!!”


3. Allie K.

“Allie was so wonderful with our pups and communicated very openly. She also cleaned up a bit before we got home which was above and beyond any expectation I would have for a sitter in our home. We’ve used her services twice in the last two months and can’t recommend her enough!”

7. Cheryl C.

“Cheryl was very accommodating and was able to help us out in a last-minute jam she took care of the dogs like her own and was very nice and sent pictures and updates frequently we'll definitely use her again”


8. Dawn F.
“Dawn has been a great dog sitter for our 2 dogs. She keeps the dogs active. Dawn will take them for walks or to the park to socialize them with other animals. Dawn has had extensive training through the leader dogs for the blind. Dawn is well trained with all types of dogs, so we do NOT have to worry when she watches ours. We would highly recommend dawn to anyone who asks for a dog sitter/ walker.”


9. Veronica W.
“We have used her many times for our "wolf pack"! She had no problem managing our large AND small breeds. Some sitters can be intimidated by larger dogs. She handled them like a pro. We don't like to put our babies in others hands. But continue to use her with reliable results.”


10. Emily H.


“Emily was in constant communication and took excellent care of our guy! She was great and we will book again!”


11. Arica V.
“I highly recommend Arica for anyone searching for a pet caregiver. She has taken care of my dog and was kind, responsible and attentive. My dog loves being in Aricas care. Arica cares for three dogs of her own. She adopted a dog that was traumatized and experiencing crippling anxiety. Arica has been loving, understanding, and patient. Her dog has flourished because of her empathy and patience. I completely trust Arica with my dog and have used her services multiple times.”


12. Tyler L.
“Oliver has grown up with plenty of animals, he currently lives with his dad and takes care of his 2 dogs while is father works all day. Oliver also owns a bird, sadly he's trying to re-home his bird at the moment due to not being able to get accepted into a job, that's probably why he's applying to rover so he can successfully make an income without worrying about becoming homeless...”


13. Hannah J.


“Hannah took such good care of our dogs while we were away. We appreciated receiving updates and photos every day. Our pups are getting older, and it was reassuring to know that they were able to stay at home and be in good hands! Thanks so much!!”


14. Laura K.

“Laura was very nice to get up at 3:30 am to feed my Henry. Hopefully was able to go back to bed. He has always been an early riser but this is ridiculous. She was calm and reassuring in general.”


15. Callie B.

“Callie is extremely attentive and detail oriented. Consistent updates, followed all our instructions perfectly, and made our out of the country vacation stress free.”


16. Courtney M.
About: I am an experienced pet sitter and I am always my friends and family go to pet sitter. Growing up I’ve always had pets from dogs ,cats and chickens :) It’s fun and enjoyable for me to get to spend time with your pets. Playing and taking them on walks or just sitting on the couch with them is a great way to spend time together with your pet. I work a part time job and I have a 3 year old daughter. I would drop my daughter off at school and then check on your pet , take them outside to play or on a walk for a couple hours. On my days off I can spend majority of the day with your animals As a dog owner, it’s essential to understand and meet your pet’s basic needs. Your pets basic needs will consist of nutritious food, water, treats, toys and bedding to make the pet feel right at home. I want your pets to be comfortable and at ease around me


17. Alex C.

“Alex was incredible with our fur babies, and treated our home with respect and care. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing everything was safe and sound at home, and came back to happy healthy animals! Thank you Alex!!”


18. Thalisa T.
“Thalisa watched my house and my pitbull for a week with the referral from a friend. She was absolutely great. I never had a worry while I was away. My dog loved her as much as I did. I will definitey go to her again. She has the type of personality that makes you just want to be her friend.”


19. Dallas G.
“Dallas is so caring towards my dog and she absolutely loves him! He is very calm and gentle and I would trust him time and time again to care for my girl.”


20. Elizabeth S.
“Elizabeth has been helping with my pets for years. She would feed and take my dog for walks when I worked overtime. Now she helps with my cat Luna when I am out of town. Luna only needs her food filled once a day but Elizabeth makes sure to check in on her frequently so she doesn't feel lonely. She spends extra time playing with her and has even stayed at the house until Luna comes out of hiding to make sure she was ok. Now that Luna is familiar with Elizabeth she is happy to see her and will cuddle up in her lap. Elizabeth is kind, caring, respectful and responsible. I have never been disappointed in the care she has given my pets.”
