“This was our first time working with Stephany and she was wonderful with our 6 year old dog, Nico. He normally gets really sad and anxious when we go out of town but with Stephany he was very happy! She sent me updates twice a day letting me know how things were going and also sent pictures so I could see that Nico was doing really well. I really appreciated that communication and it put my mind at ease so I could enjoy my trip. We will definitely work with her again and I highly recommend her! Thank you Stephany!”

“Nathan was fantastic with my dog. My dog can be reactive with other dogs and I'm particular about his care/environment, but I could tell Nathan went above and beyond familiarizing himself with my dogs needs and set up. They seemed to have bonded and my dog got new experiences and adventures! He left my home clean and was considerate in all interactions. I'm glad to have found Nathan for my dog and will book again.”

“Sara and Erin did a fantastic job taking care of my two dogs and my chickens for the week! They were diligent, communicative and left the house spotless. Thank you!!”

“Maya was so great with my two fur babies! She sent regular updates, kept them company, & took care of them while my husband & I were on a long hike for the day. She was especially gentle & great with my senior pup, an (almost) 15 year old German shepherd with arthritis. I would definitely recommend Maya!”
“Raymond did an excellent job with housesitting our three dogs last minute, even though one of our dogs can be “a problem” and requires extra attention and care coordination, and another one has a seizure disorder that requires medicine. The dogs loved the walks, and Raymond was wonderful about keeping us updated with pictures and status reports. Our dogs usually exhibit stress behaviors when we are gone, but they apparently did very well in Raymond‘s care!”

“I am so thrilled that we decided to book with Alexus for the first time! Our longtime dog sitter decided to switch career paths, so we were scrambling to find someone new near the holidays. Alexus was so prompt in responding to my request for a meet-and-greet and very enthusiastic in all of her communications with us. She stayed in our home with our two large pups and sent regular updates during our time away. We returned home after 5 days to find two very relaxed dogs and a super tidy home, which I was so grateful for! You can tell she takes great pride in this job and has a ton of integrity. My nerves melted after our first visit and we will absolutely book with her in the future! Thank you for everything, Alexus!”

“My puppies were so well taken care of for the 4 days I was gone. You can always tell when you get home. My puppies were happy to see me but content and not in any way distressed. Nothing better than that. Will definitely use again. She has a great calm presence with my puppies. A+ 🐾💜🐾”

“Jade was so great with our 3 dogs and sent lots of pictures and videos. She left the house very clean and even left flowers for us. We will definitely be using Jade again!”

“Kristina took the best care of our dogs! She was easy to communicate with and sent just the right amount of pictures. We will definitely have her dog sit for us again.”

“I'm so happy we found Sheila! She's a fantastic pet sitter: warm, fun, and good with doggies. Her updates are frequent, entertaining, and informative. I one bazillion percent trust her with our puppers and will one trazillion percent have her sit for them in the future.”

“Nadia was great with our dog Charlie! She was able to help us out on short notice, which we were so grateful for. And while we were gone, she was an excellent communicator, sharing photos of what she and Charlie were up to multiple times a day. We would definitely work with her again!”

“Nautica was great with Cannoli! She was communicative and caring, I will definitely be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone.”


“Taylor is an amazing house sitter, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets! He was respectful of our home, took great care of Sophie, and gave us peace of mind while we were away for the weekend. He kept us updated with photos and was always quick to reach out if he had any questions. It was clear that Sophie was well cared for and got plenty of attention and playtime. We came home to a happy pup and a well-kept house. We’d absolutely book with Taylor again!”

“Tamara did a great job of watching my house and my crazy dog while I was gone. She was able to keep up with my dogs medication and keep my place looking clean. I will absolutely to continue contacting her for future bookings.”

“Thank you for taking such great care of Duke! I REALLY appreciate getting pictures, will definitely be in touch for the next time I need a sitter for him.”

“Emiliana was a great sitter for my dog, Ziggy. She hung out with him for the long weekend and gave him a ton of attention and shared many photos of their hangs. Would recommend having Emiliana watch you pet and will be asking her to spend time with Ziggy again in the future.”

“Danielle took great care of our boys and apartment while we were away. She gave us daily updates and adapted quickly to the nuances of our dog and cat. We would be happy to have Danielle back over in the future!”

“I loved having Kelsey care for my dog while I was away, she gave me great updates & pictures and gave him lots of love and time. I’d love for her to pet sit him again!”

Tamara was very easy to work with. My trip was a bit last minute but we were able to schedule a meet and greet soon after confirming the stay. She stayed in my home with my dog and was very respectful of my space. I was thankful to come home to a clean house, she really went above and beyond there. My dog is aggressive with other dogs, this is always my worry when leaving him alone with a new person but Tamara assured me she understood and I am thankful that there were no issues with that. Tamara was sure to do daily check ins and send photos, she was quick to respond before and during the stay as well. I would for sure work with Tamara again.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Stephany! I was nervous to have a Rover sitter stay at my house and watch my pets while I was out of the country for a week, but Stephany put all those fears to rest. She constantly communicated updates and sent multiple photos a day to show me how my girls were doing. Little things like watering plants, checking mail, taking out the trash, and even washing the bedroom sheets so I didn’t have to worry about that coming home so late, made such a difference. The house was clean just like I left it, and my fur babies were well loved. Stephany is the best!

Carmella was awesome. We were out of the country for 10 days and she took great care of our pup while we were away. She is observant and picked up on his little quirks in no time. Left the house spotless too. Very fast to respond which helped a sometimes anxious dog mom like me! Highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter

Shelia is always absolutely wonderful to have watch the pets and house sit. She takes such great care of Rosie and Murphy, they absolutely love all the attention she gives them. It is so nice knowing someone is caring for them so well at home and we don’t have to send them somewhere out of their comfort zone to be boarded. We feel so lucky to have found Shelia!!

Taylor is an amazing house sitter, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets! He was respectful of our home, took great care of Sophie, and gave us peace of mind while we were away for the weekend. He kept us updated with photos and was always quick to reach out if he had any questions. It was clear that Sophie was well cared for and got plenty of attention and playtime. We came home to a happy pup and a well-kept house. We’d absolutely book with Taylor again!

Garrett watched my dog, Cooper, on short notice as I headed out of town for an extended weekend. He showed up to the meet and greet that I had to schedule only mere hours before catching my flight, got along well with Coop, and took great care of him throughout the stay. I received pictures and updates at a regular cadence, and Cooper was acting his happy self upon my return. He enjoyed his time spent with Garrett! My home was also left in great shape! I would definitely have Garrett sit in my space with Cooper again.

Jessica was incredible! She was super communicative and she loved my dog. It truly felt like I left her in the best hands possible. Jessica was super sweet and took my dog out on many walks and sent me pictures and videos. I’d recommend her to anyone and will definitely rebook!
