1. Lori S.

“Lori was great! We were traveling during the Holidays and needed a last minute sitter and Lori very graciously obliged. She was timely and followed all of the care details perfectly. She even let us use one of her cat’s toys that she no longer needed, so sweet! Lori is great, highly recommend!”


2. Sarah & David L.


“Sarah was great! My cat has to take meds both liquid and pill twice a day. She always showed up on time to give him his meds and take care of him. I was able to have peace of mind on my trip. I also got photo updates of my boy.”


3. Denise G.

“Ariel is truly remarkable when it comes to caring for animals. Her innate ability to connect with furry friends is extraordinary, creating a warm and trusting relationship with every pet they encounter. I had the pleasure of entrusting my animals to Ariel, and her attentiveness and genuine love for animals became immediately apparent. Ariel is not only a responsible and reliable caregiver but also possesses a unique knack for understanding and meeting the individual needs of each animal under her watch. I wholeheartedly recommend Ariel to anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled caretaker for their beloved pets.”

“Haylie’s care for pets is wonderful. She never complained about requirements about the job, she fed my pet and also reported back to us every time. On her free time she would sometimes go out her way to even by my cat and dog toys and more. She is very nice and definitely suitable for the job. her availability is awesome and we were able to decide as a family that she is the best fit.”


12. Elizabeth & Young B.
About: I’ve had hands on experience taking care of dogs since I was a child thus being able to provide a safe and understanding space for all fur babies! I adore all dogs (fur real) and would be so happy to be a caretaker of yours! I was the human companion of a wonderful chihuahua mini pin mix named Ninja for 15 years, but his time to walk the rainbow bridge came earlier this year. Since then I’ve had many friends and family ask me to take care of their pets which has been a gift that has helped process my grief. I figured, heck, might as well join Rover to assist with even more! Dogs bring me so much joy, I can’t even. My boyfriend will tell you (that patient man) that I will literally stop for or point out every dog I see. I love dogs so much! 😭❤️ I’m a freelance filmmaker and have plenty of time on my hands. I work from home and can take care of your beloved pet at my place or at yours! ✨ I live in a cute apartment complex (only four units) in the heart of Highland Park which is close to many dog parks, walking paths and hiking areas. The building is gated all the way around and we have privacy due to the foliage. I also live on a cul-de-sac so there’s not a lot of traffic. My boyfriend and I allow animals on the furniture so if a pet is in need of comfort they would be given royal couch treatment! 💅🏼


13. Sam M.

“First time booking Sam as a drop in before a long stay coming up. She did a great job! The dogs seemed to really feel comfortable with their walk, playtime and meals!”




14. Kimberly R.

“Kimberly is the best. She is so kind and is always so great with Tarzan. And always on time! I would recommend her for any one looking for a great pet sitter!”


15. Devin W.

“Devin did a great job! Our pups immediately fell in love with her and it was so nice not having to worry about them while we were gone over the weekend. She was great at communicating and sent us pictures! Definitely recommend her!”


16. Victoria A.
“victoria has always been so reliable when watching our dog. she is reliable and goes above and beyond to make sure mac is comfortable and cared for sweetly. she had helped us out so many times when last minute plans have came up. definitely recommend !”


17. Heather W.
“Heather is by far our first choice when we need a dog sitter. We have used her service on several occasions, the last one for a period of three weeks. During that time, she kept the house neat and tidy and stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving the dogs and house behind. This was hard for us to be away for that long but Heather gave us peace of mind! And we actually got to enjoy our time away knowing our home was safe and taken care of. Above all, Heather is trustworthy, and our dogs love her. We would be happy to provide personal references upon request. Johnny and Lucy Los Angeles, CA”


18. William J.
“Will was absolutely wonderful with my dog Merlin! Merlin is a 3 year old cattle dog with a cuddly yet excitable personality and he responded so well to Will's easy going nature. He took him on some great walks out in nature (per my request). Will also helped show me how to keep Merlin from jumping up onto people any time he got too excited. I'd recommend Will to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter/walker!”


19. Jackson S.
“Jackson is an animal lover. Thoughtful, kind and very responsible. Jackson has been a pet owner for 16+ years and enjoys connecting with pets of friends and family, to help out and care for the furry family members of others. Jackson is a reliable and considerate human being who is completely trust worthy and would honor any agreement to care for a pet while also ensuring that the needs of the individual pets are well met. His heart is genuine and his love and care for pets would reflect just that.”


20. Katherine S.
“Katherine has been a reliable and lovable pet sitter for me over the years. She enjoys spending time with animals and is so communicative throughout her stay that it puts me at ease. When Katherine is pet sitting for me I know everything is well and there’s no better care out there!”
