1. August S.

“August is absolutely the best, caring and responsible pet sitter. We felt so comfortable and at peace knowing our fur babies were being taken such good care of. We will definitely be reaching out again for future sitter needs.”


2. Rachael S.

“Hank was very comfortable with Rachael. We can’t wait to have her back!”


3. John M.
“We were truly blessed when John stepped in and stayed at our home for a week to 10 days every year when we went to Florida each winter. Our fur babies were just that, our babies. We trusted him for over 5 years to stay with them, feed them, and give them the love they deserved in our absence. Trusting someone with your babies is never easy, but John truly made it that way. John went above and beyond by sending daily updates, pictures and videos of our dog and cat. Not only did John become the main caregiver for my babies, but he also maintained the house and driveway since we lived in a snow belt area. I can't thank John enough for his dedication and professionalism.”


4. Dana S.


“My dog can be difficult, and I’ve never left her with a dog sitter so I was quite nervous, but Dana did an amazing job. She sent me regular updates, kept my dog in her usual routine and handled her puppy energy like a pro!”


5. Taryn C.

“Taryn did a great job house sitting and watching our babies! She sent lots of pictures and made sure to do everything we instructed. Our older dog needs a little extra help with eating and getting around, she was great to give the extra care. We were very impressed and will certainly use her services again in the future!”


6. Aliyah L.

“Aliyah watched our cats and dogs for the 1st time and did a wonderful job!! Since I am a bit new to Rover, she helped me realize what I like and prefer in a house sitter. On top of the basic chores involved with taking care our pets I always wonder if my pets are comfortable with a new sitter. The photos she sent me reassured my husband and I that they were. In addition her communicating to us was great. I would give her more than a 5 star if I could!”


7. Rachel L.

“Rachel was wonderful with our Maggie! She was very responsive to our text messages and also so flexible with our schedules and everything involving our dog. She stayed in our home with Maggie, and we returned to our house the way we left it. We highly recommend Rachel for your next pet sitter!”


8. Jennifer C.

“Jenn is amazing! She took such great care of my 3 cats! They all have their own personalities and she was amazing with them all! I was gone for a few days to NYC and I knew I could trust her no matter what! She's amazing and I would highly recommend her!!”

10. Gabriella R.

“God for Gabby! She was FABULOUS! Very bright and responsible. The dogs took to her immediately and she sent me pictures of them throughout the day. She played with them and they even seemed alittle upset when she left! She even brought her own toys for them! They loved her and so do we! Totally confident with her!”

“Melissa took great care of Bella and our home while we were out of town. She was prompt and responsive, and shared regular updates!”


20. Genre B.

“Genre puppy sat for our 2 dogs, in our home. One of our dogs is afraid of people he doesn't know. Genre came to the house ahead of time to meet us. During that visit he went from barking at her to nudging her with his paw tso that she would pet him. The dog could tell by her demeanor that she wasn't a threat and then he fell in love with her. A month later she sat for us and he again welcomed her and became her shadow. This shows that she is a dog savvy person who knows how to handle fearful animals. She sent us several pictures during our trip. When we returned home, a neighbor commented how well Genre had done when the neighbor walked her dogs past our house and Genre was out in the yard supervising our dogs. We were very happy with her work and we would certainly hire her again.”
