“I had a great house sitting experience with Allison! My dog was relaxed and happy when I got home, and my house was cleaner than when I left! Allison was very easy to communicate with, and was super accommodating when I had some last-minute flight delays.”


Jessica W.

“Jessica took great care of Lexi. She also went above what u expected of her by vacuuming dog hair up and washing bedding and putting clean sheets on my bed. Upon returning home after a long day in airports and not arriving until midnight; it was great not needing to change sheets. I will definitely call on Jessuca again when I need a pup sitter. She was great.”

“Ian was awesome with my 2 senior dogs. I was nervous to leave them with someone other than family for the first time and Ian was great. He came to meet the dogs in advance which helped to ease my concerns. I got pictures and updates daily and when I got home from vacation the dogs were happy and well cared for. I would definitely hire Ian again to care for my babies!”

Linda W.
“Linda treats her beloved Charlie like her own child. A little training, lots of love, and copious cuddling. Charlie is a laid back Golden Doodle who loves to play with friends. Charlie grew up with another Golden Doodle and a chihuahua, so he is accustomed to friends of all sizes. Linda and Charlie will make any dog feel right at home.”




Elizabeth V.


“Elizabeth is amazing with both our dog Tippet and cat Calvin. She went above and beyond to show them love and make sure they were well cared and exercised while we were away! We enjoyed the pictures she sent us throughout the weekend as well. Tippet can be shy around new people and that was not the case with Elizabeth he warmed right up to her, and was a happy boy when we returned. We will happily have her back to watch our boys and would recommend her 100%.”


Gigi R.

“Gigi gave Ali lots of snuggles and attention! She provided me several updates and photos. I knew Ali would be well taken care of while I was away.”

Priscilla H.

“Wow – I can’t say enough good things about Pricilla! My husband and I have nicknamed her the Mary Poppins of Rover sitters. She cared for our two large dogs over the weekend and sent photos/video/updates at every meal, and various times throughout the days. She followed all my instructions and even went above and beyond what I’d expect from a Rover sitter. When I got home my house was spotless – cleaner than I left it! She gifted the boys some toys and treats and spent lots of time playing with them. She also came an hour earlier than I asked and stayed an hour later. And one other great story I have from her stay – she looked at the ingredients of the broth I bought to put over the boys kibble and let me know it contained onion – so she avoided using it, and advised me to get a different broth. So amazing – I would have never thought to look at that. Her attention to detail and level of service is unmatched. She’ll be my first call every time I’m in need of a sitter.”


Brandon S.
