“Sarah was great! She was trustworthy, I received daily updates and pics and Olly did great. I appreciate her so much and would recommend her 100%”


2. Jane M.

“Our dog Max loves when Jane is his dog sitter! She always sends us updates and pictures while we are away. We are able to enjoy ourselves and not worry about our pup when she is staying with him. She is the best and we are so thankful for her!!”


3. Elijah Gipe B.
“Aliyah did a great job watching our dogs for a two week period, especially over the holidays. She was accommodating of our early flight time and did a great job taking care of our fish as well. She left the house clean upon our return. She responded quickly to my messages and sent lots of pictures. Would definitely recommend.”


4. Chris B.

“Chris was fantastic - he looked after my dog and 9 month old kitten for a few days over the holidays. He went above and beyond - checking on them more frequently than I’d required/expected and sent plenty of updates and photos. My dog doesn’t usually eat when I’m away but he seems to have eaten with Chris which is amazing - shows me he felt safe and loved while I was away. Thank you!”


5. Saren C.

“Saren was great with our pups, one of which is anxious and takes daily meds. She left our house even better than we left it too. Would absolutely use her again in a heartbeat!”


6. Kaitlyn N.

“She scheduled a meet and greet, asking the right questions. She watched my dog during the holidays and made sure to be with my anxious dog during times of fireworks, and gave me daily updates and pictures. Left my apartment in mint condition!!”


7. Victoria & Jacob K.

“Tori was excellent with Rallie. Looking forward to future sitting visits.”


8. Meredith H.

“Meredith took great care of all of our animals. She messaged us to let us know that they were fed and that they were doing good. She also sent us a picture of our pups. Thank you so much.”


9. Jessica W.


“Would definitely recommend Jessica. She was very responsive and accommodating when our schedule changed slightly, but was willing to work around our issues. Dogs were well taken care of and happy when we returned home.”


10. Reyna M.

“Reyna was wonderful to work with. She let us know her schedule prior to booking to make sure it would work with our dogs needs. She communicated on a regular basis on how our dog was doing. Our dog can be very anxious and difficult and Reyna handled her very well. We got lots of pictures while we were gone, which were great. Definitely will use Reyna again.”


11. Alyson H.

“Alyson did absolutely great with my dog Louie. She’s definitely made Louie feel really comfortable. I enjoyed the pictures that she sent me throughout caring for my Louie. Will definitely book again.”


12. Emilia M.

“Emilia was so attentive, flexible and made me feel very confident that my dogs were I. Good hands while I was away. She left the house neat as a pin. Will definitely book her again!”


13. Jennifer A.

“The dog Jenny watched for us is new to our family and has a difficult past. This made his first pet sitting experience particularly challenging, and I can’t imagine someone handling it with more grace and compassion than Jenny did. She doted on and cared for our pup like he was her own - not to mention took him on long hikes and car rides every day (his favorite!) She sent loads of adorable pictures and updates along the way. Truly went above and beyond in every possible way. Finding someone to trust your beloved pet with is tough, and I recommend Jenny 110%”


14. Shannon W.

“Wow. Shannon is wonderful. She is a professional pet sitter who is caring, thoughtful, and empathetic towards your fur babies. I can’t say enough positive things about her and how she cared for my 3 pets. She does work in a pet clinic and it shows in her care of your fur babies. She also took care of my house and treated it with the same respect that she would her own. I highly recommend her.”


15. Becca M.

“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”


16. Donovan F.

“Donovan was great with our two energetic pups! You can tell that he loves animals genuinely loves taking care of them. He communicated well and was able to book on short notice for a last second trip. Will definitely book with him again!”


17. Thomas G.
“Thomas was awesome with our 2 year old Australian shepherd. She had plenty of room to run, went on walks, and we got lots of pictures. We will definitely be returning the next time we go on vacation.”


18. Betsy M.

“Betsy was great!! She helped us with our unique situation of having our dog as our flower girl for our wedding ? Betsy watched after our dog while we took photos, people arrived, and during the ceremony. She also took our dog back to our house - 20 min drive and got her in the kennel with dinner fed! Seriously a huge help and she executed everything we needed flawlessly! Couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter - thanks Betsy!”


19. Nathan F.

“Best Rover I’ve had! Dogs adored him, he maintained communication, and left the house better than he found it. Highly recommend!!”


20. Willow S.

“Willow was great with our greyhounds. We booked Willow to watch our pets for the day while we were out for an extended period of time. He was flexible with arrival /departure times, attentive to instructions and his calm demeanor was exactly what our two needed. We will be calling on Willow in the future to watch them again when the need arises.”
