“Amazing care for our cat Kona and thorough daily check-ins with pics and details. Tanya made our vacation extra enjoyable knowing we didn't have to worry at all while we were away.”


“Linda was great at communicating and I felt so comfortable leaving my fur baby with her! It really gave me peace of mind while I was away - I can not recommend her enough!”


“Davis was a great pet sitter. He communicated well, sent photos, was reliable around the arrive and leave times and was thorough in his questions at the meet and greet. I came home to content dogs so I know they were well cared for and got the attention they need. I will definitely use Davis again.”


“We had Anastasiia pet/home sit for us for a week, as we went out of town. I think like most, it is difficult to trust a stranger with your home and your pets. Anastasiia exceeded all expectations we had. Our animals loved their week with her, not only did she care for the animals, but Anastasiia also took care of our home. She kept us updated with our furr babies and we arrived home to a spotless home. We are so lucky to have trusted Anastasiia with our pets and home. We will 1000% be requesting her again, and could not give a higher recommendation for pet or home sitting!”


“Jack was fantastic watching our pups. Super attentive and responsive, especially with our younger pup having a sensitive stomach and needing a bit extra awareness/attention. We never worried about the dogs and received several pictures throughout. We will definitely use Jack again.”


“Did an excellent job. Performed the tasks he was asked to and went above and beyond to keep the place clean and tidy while I was gone. Good response time and cats did very well with him. Would definitely recommend and book again.”


“Andrew was an excellent sitter; he maintained close communication with us constantly sharing photos and videos of Mila. He not only took care of Mila but also gave her lots of love. I felt completely at ease knowing she was well cared for while we were away. Additionally, Andrew left the house spotless—he washed the sheets and dishes even though we didn’t ask him to. I would definitely ask Andrew to take care of Mila again.”


“Fantastic! Super communicative! Thanks for taking such great care of Jolene!”


“Micaela was SO wonderful with my two dogs and cat! She sent many photo updates and went above and beyond to make sure they were okay. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

“Kat was great! She truly cares for the animals she is punctual great communicator and super sweet. I definitely would trust her with my animal’s again.She made my trip easy because I didn’t have to worry about anything. thank you so much.”

“Grace was wonderful! We will definitely book her again in the future. We came home to our house in great shape and happy animals. She also provided tons of updates and pictures!”


“I’ve booked Kevin multiple times and will definitely keep doing so!! I have a senior dog who can get pretty anxious and has some quirky needs due to her age. She warmed up to Kevin quickly and he does an amazing job taking care of her! He’s also super communicative and takes great pictures that he sends every day. I loved seeing how happy and calm my dog looked while I was away on my trip. I highly recommend Kevin for your dog sitting needs ❤️”


“Brandy was an absolute gem! Super communicative and sweet with our (admittedly apt to misbehave) dogs. I felt completely at ease with her staying in our house and taking care of our pups. The house—and dogs!—were cleaner than we left them. I'd have Brandy back, anytime.”


“Chelsea has been wonderful housesitting for us with our pup and cat. They are always so excited to see her! We are very happy with the attention she gives to the pets and the photo updates throughout the day!”


“Theresa did a phenomenal job taking care of our dogs! We have two high maintenance brittanys who require lots of exercise and attention and Theresa absolutely provided that. She also exceeded our expectations in terms of the amount of time she spent with our dogs and I know they were never lonely. She sent lots of photos and updates so we were confident our dogs were doing well, and left the house even cleaner than when she arrived which was not expected at all but much appreciated! We will absolutely be re-booking her for future trips”



“Magdalene was amazing she stayed at our house and watched Ella. She took great care of our little stinker and our house. She was very accommodating taking her to doggie daycare and even giving her a bath when she needed. She sent us pictures and updates regularly. Ella was having tummy issues and she went and got her some pumpkin to help out. She is amazing thank you so much for everything.”


“Alexa was absolutely wonderful taking care of my fur babies for over a week and half. I have used many great sitters on Rover, but my pups never looked as happy as they did with her. You could tell she genuinely cared for their well being while we were gone. I would highly recommend her and will be happy to engage her services again in the future.”


“Sara was great, the dogs and cat loved her. Would recommend to anyone and hope we can use her again”


“Can’t recommend Amanda enough! She is professional, communicative and ensures we don’t have to worry about anything for our dog while we’re away. She always goes above and beyond, accommodating early/late check-ins. We’re so glad we found her to care for Denver!”
