1. Madison G.
“Very caring and absolutely prompt in all communications and caring for our baby kitty Isabelle. We definitely are planning on booking her later this month.”
2. Nejra V.
“She was amazing with my two cats. They are a little skittish around new people, but she was patient and they warmed up to her so quickly. One of my kitties has digestive issues and sometimes goes outside the box, and she was amazing with cleaning up, which I didn't even ask of her (my friend was in charge of messes). From the moment she met them, she was warm and excited to see them, which is one of the biggest comforts I can get. Highly recommend her for your pet needs!”
3. Samantha D.
“Samantha came in to save the day with our fur friends. She was super responsive and asked questions and took very good care of our doggies. I would definitely recommend and will use her again in the future.”
4. Arielle I.
“Arielle is an amazing cat sitter! She agreed to watch our kitties last minute and is so responsive and nice! She sent detailed updates from her visits and great pictures of our cats! We didn’t have to worry about our cats at all while we were gone because we knew they were well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Arielle in the future!”

He’s always reliable, keeps me updated with photos and messages, and makes sure my dog feels comfortable and loved.

“Jen was so great with my cat and dog! They enjoyed her time with them and she was great at communicating how things went while she was here. She’s staying at my house this weekend with them and I am 100% confident that my kiddos will have a great time with her again! I’ll definitely use her again and I’d totally recommend her! ?”
13. Samantha F.
About: I’ve had a dog in my home since I was born. I feel very comfortable with any and all sizes, breeds and ages and have been dog sitting for friends, family and neighbors for years! I work 2 part time jobs which allows for quite a bit of flexibility! I’m always home in the middle of the day for several hours! I have a German Shepherd who loves to play but can also be sweet and chill. I can also easily crate your dog if needed!
14. Kendra S.
“Kendra is a super reliable and caring person. She has a dog of her own that she loves and takes such great care of. She has previously watched my dog when I needed someone to let her out to go potty and she gave her lots of pets and love and sent me cute pictures. Kendra has also helped my sister and sister in law by last minute picking up their dog after their wedding ceremony, driving her home, and feeding/playing with her. She’s very trustworthy and your pet will be in great hands!”
15. Rachel & Christian R.
“Rachel & Christian were able to help us on short notice to care for our pup who needed medicine. Their communication was promot while we were away which put our mind at ease. They have experience giving medication and working with extra large dogs. Rachel & Christian went above and beyond what we expected from drop in visits. Taking our pup on walks, playing a bit, letting him out to run and being flexible with timing so he wasn't alone for too long. We're so grateful to work with them and would recommend to anyone!”
16. Alisa C.
“Alisa did a great job with a drop in visit to feed and let our dog outside. She arrived timely, stayed the appropriate amount of time and took a couple photos for us.”
17. Taylor E.
“Taylor does an excellent job with our 15 1/2 year old Shih Tzu who has health issues and is going blind. We appreciate her patience and gentle care.”
18. Rielly M.
“Reliable communication and pet care. Our first time using Rover and it was nice to be able to leave and not be worried about the cats while we were gone. Check-ins with pictures were great :)”
19. Lynsey S.
“Lynsey has been a trusted dog sitter for me for several years. She stayed at my home and over the past 10 years my dogs have come to her home. She loves and treats them as her own. She has a great fenced-in yard and a very pet-friendly safe home. She takes them for walks and gives them love. Hands down the best person I've ever had take care of my dogs. I never worry when they are with her!”
20. McKenna C.
About: I have cared for pets of my own, family and friends since I was younger and I am a firm believer they are a member of the family and should be treated as such. I love all animals of any kind and am attentive to each individual pet’s needs no matter age, size, breed, etc! I am currently working part time and have plenty of time to take care of your animals throughout the week! Whether that be walks, playing, feeding or anything your pet may need! Each pet and client is different which I am always prepared for! Whatever your normal routine is or specific needs for your pet are would be no issue!
