Kimberly has been truly awesome to work with. She took excellent care of our dogs while she sat for us over the holidays. She was super communicative, professional, and sent lots of (super cute!) photos of our dogs while we were away. She gave our dogs the time of their life this week! We are excited to find such a fantastic sitter. Your pups are in great hands with Kimberly.

Samantha took care of my 5 year old Vizsla pup for a multi day housesitting stay and was just incredible - her communication leading up to and during the stay was impeccable, she was punctual, attentive to details, sent me multiple pictures and check ins a day, took amazing care of the house, and overall just showered my dog with love and listened to every instruction I left and beyond. I would 110% highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter. Thank you Samantha and I will definitely be re-booking with you!

I had Esteban house sit to look after my big, rambunctious dog Sable for 6 days. Not only did Esteban take amazing care of my dog, he left the house in incredible condition. All my dog’s needs were met, and he sent regular pupdates. I’m a very anxious person and it was my first time using Rover, but Esteban put me at ease and I am so glad I decided to go with him. I would 100% use Esteban again if I ever leave town. I believe it’s safer and easier on my dog than boarding her at a dog hotel. You da man, Esteban!

Honestly could not have found a better pet sitter! She really took care of our little crew like they were her own. We came back to stress free, happy pets, which for our needy little lovea isn’t always the norm. Joanna was beyond considerate and sent lots of pictures which showed just how well cared for they all were. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Meagan is absolutely wonderful! I’ve known her for over 5 years and there is absolutely nobody better suited to caring for pets of all kind. She is kind, considerate, and loving toward animals of all kids. Just this last New Year Meagan watched our two dogs, while also house sitting for us, and everything went extremely smoothly. She sent timely updates with photos, took them on 2x daily walks, gave them lots of cuddle time, the whole 9 yards. I can’t recommend Meagan highly enough!

Their attention to detail when it comes to caring for living creatures is incomparable thanks to their ability to personalize each experience to what brings the most to what is needed. Whether it's outside adventures or just quiet company indoors Ruby is trustworthy and dependable and will definitely be a go to for pet sitting in the future.

Christine is a great sitter. Remi got stitches on his foot a week before Christine's visit, and his exercise still needs to restricted. Christine was great at ensuring Remi's exercise was restricted while also finding ways to play games and keep him engaged. It's obvious Remi had a great time with her. I trust my dog is in good care when he's with Christine.
