“Alex is terrific -- and having him housesit with our cat TK is a joy. Alex gives the cat love and TK reciprocates -- that's clear from the photos Alex sends showing the cat snuggled up next to him (or sitting on Alex's computer, demanding attention). Alex also played sitting-tag with a friend, who came for several days, and coordinated with her so that care for the cat and watering of our garden went seamlessly. Finally, TK had a few puking incidents. While TK did not apologize to Alex, I did. Alex's response? "No worries! Animals doing animal things." He's a great sitter with a sense of humor.”

“Gina was wonderful with our new puppy for a weekend home stay. She was courteous, professional, and provided multiple updates. Very thoughtful and treated our house with respect. We can’t wait to book Gina again!”

“Blake spent 3 nights with my dog Sam and everything went smooth. She communicates well and recommended a meet and greet prior to the sitting dates. When I got back home Sam, who has separation anxiety, was calm and happy to see me. I will definitely request dates with Blake when needed in the future.”


About: We have a friendly dog, Riggins, who loves to play outside in our large fenced in yard. When she gets tired we have a dog door into our living room with a bed and water and toys! Riggins loves having friends come over and play with her! We can also separate the dogs if they need their alone time. Our yard has shade and sunny areas and has a very large area to run around! The fence is around 6'-0" high. So much room for fun! I work from home so I watch after them all day! Our dog Riggins likes to listen to music and is very social able once she says hello! Would love to meet you and your dog to see if they get along with Riggins our dog! I work from home so I am always around for the dogs. They have free range of the yard and a dog door if they need to come inside. We have gates if they need some alone time as well. We have a fenced in yard with a four year old dog and we have a son who is just about 3 years old and we love having friends over! We have numerous beds and water bowls for everyone to use
“Erik was awesome. He took care of my energetic dog Cashew in my apartment for 2.5 weeks, and it went super well. He sent photos and videos every couple days, with updates to let me know how it was going. Cashew seemed to love him. I would 100% recommend Erik!”

“Thank you Ronald! Ronald housesat for a long weekend for our 2 big pups & I received several photo updates and check ins. We had a tiny situation resulting in a trip to the emergency vet and Ronald was calm, communicative, helpful, and went out of his way to make sure our dog was take care of. I highly recommend his services and am so thankful that he was so attentive!!”

“Angela is so great with our sweet dog! Remi took an immediate liking to Angela and that says alot!! My husband and I feel very comfortable leaving Remi with her! She's greatl!! ❤️”


“Ashley did a terrific job keeping me in the loop with my dogs for a long weekend! She was enthusiastic, friendly, and left my apartment cleaner than she found it! I definitely plan to use her again for dog sitting.”
“Gabriel was extremely patient with our two rescues giving each the attention the needier one thrives on, while giving space to our more nervous pooch until she warmed up to him. Both in just the right amounts to make our dogs feel more relaxed and secure. Thank you Gabriel!”

“Victoria was wonderful to work with. She took great care of my dogs and house while I was on vacation. She communicated often, sent pictures and fulfilled the needs of my dogs. She’s warm and lovely and I plan on using her again in the future.”

“Courtney was great, I knew I had the right person to take care of my 5 month old puppy, and home. She was punctual, professional and caring. She updated me frequently, and I was confident all was well while out of town. I will definitely hire Courtney the next time I need a sitter!”

About: As a fur mom myself, I treat other pets as if they were my own. I have two dogs and a cat. Two of them are seniors and I've had them since they were young. I believe in training basic commands, positive enforcement, and lots of snuggles. When I'm not pet sitting, I'm hanging out with my pups outside while they get their zoomies out. I'm comfortable with excited pups, counter surfers, and shy pups. We all have our quirks! I take care of our 3 pets (2 dogs, 1 cats) and their care is my top priority on my day to day. Feeding, training, and getting the zoomies out. I like to keep the dogs routine as much as possible. Some dogs can get anxious when someone new is introduced and I find it's best to keep things as simple and normal as possible.
“I first met Kelly for a preliminary 'meet & greet' and I immediately sensed her comfort with our young, certified therapy Aussie dog 'Sydney'. On the day of the sitting, Kelly arrived promptly and Sydney (again) greeted her warmly. During the visit Kelly texted us some cute photos of Sydney and Kelly at-play. I highly recommend Kelly and as the need arises we will definitely request her services without hesitation.”

“Darla did a great job with Rudy, Evie, Boo Boo and PepperJack! I was out of country for a week and nervous to be so far away and doing Rover.com for the first time. Darla has excellent attention to detail is cares about every nuance of taking are of my furry family. Thank you Darla for doing such an awesome job! Leah”

“Olivia did an amazing job taking care of our four pups, which includes a senior French bulldog, two very sweet, but very large and powerful Dogo Argentinos, and a second, very mischievous escape artist French bulldog. She took time to understand each dog’s unique personality and tailors her care to each. She was also extremely communicative, and sent us pics multiple times a day. Highly recommend!”
