1. Claudia A.

“I hesitate to write this because I want Claudia all to myself whenever we go away from now on! She is responsive, responsible, our house was as we left it and our pups and plants were well cared for and happy. Will definitely use her again and again as long as she’s willing!”


2. August S.

“August was a wonderful caregiver to our 2 mid-sized labrador mix dogs, one 12yrs, one 6yrs. August slept in our home during our family's wk long vacation. They provided several walks a day, fed, medicated and supported a relaxing, consistent environment for our beloved pups. Our older dog required medical support while in Augusts' care. August maintained conversation, with health updates with our veterinarian and myself which allowed me peace of mind while we were traveling. August was able to set up and manage playdates and excursions with our friends for our 2 pups. August left our home and our pups in perfect shape and I was very grateful for their presence. I highly recommend August and will absolutely use them again.”


3. Mary K.

“Mary was fantastic! She took the time to come meet our dogs before staying with them while we went out of town on vacation and we felt so comfortable meeting her and seeing her interact with the dogs. She definitely gives them her full care and attention! Mary was very respectful and kept us up-to-date on how everybody was doing and frequently checked in to see if there was anything more she could do for them. I’m so glad we booked with Mary and we will definitely use her again in the future! We cannot recommend her highly enough!”


4. Colleen B.

“Colleen is a wonderful, caring, and attentive sitter for our fur babies. We are grateful to have found her in the community. Our babies look forward to seeing her again this Summer!”


5. Timothy W.

“Timothy was a great choice when it came to finding someone to watch our animals and our home over the Holidays! He was quick to respond, professional and made it clear he really cared about our animals. Unprompted, he sent plenty of updates with photos, which was really nice while so far away. We had to book two rover sitters for our Holiday and Timothy was kind enough to make sure everything was set up for the next sitter for us. We (and our animals) would be happy to rebook Timothy in the future. Thanks again Timothy!”


6. Christopher R.

“Chris took good care of Coco, following our directions and’s her routine. He also left the house in good order. Coco was well and happy when we returned. What more could we ask for?!”


7. Aliyah L.

“Aliyah was wonderful! She took great care of our pup while we were away. She sent pictures and checked in every day and made us feel so comfortable that our Ruby was in good hands. She left our home clean and our dog happy! Highly recommend this wonderful young lady.”


8. Aaron F.
“Aaron is one of the most kind, gentle souls I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for over 22 years, and I can confidently say there are few in this world I trust more than him. Every animal I’ve ever seen him with, including my own dog, is both safe and loved in his presence. I never let anyone other than my mother watch my dog, but if I needed to, I’d hand her to him without a second thought. He’s trustworthy and dependable in ways most could never achieve. I couldn’t possibly recommend him more to care for anyone’s pets. He is a diamond in the rough, and your pets will always be in great hands.”


9. Alexis C.
“I have known Alexis for almost ten years and she has had dogs almost the entire time. She is very responsible and caring. She has always made sure her animals were healthy, fed, bathed, and interacted with. She loves walks and playtime almost as much as dogs do. If she could, Alexis would spend all day long with dogs everyday for the rest of her life. She is a very loving person and I would never hesitate to leave my own animals in her care and neither should you.”


10. Anastasia B.

“Anastasia was so flexible. We needed to leave much earlier than expected and she showed up early at a moment’s notice. As always, our dogs love her. Thanks.”


11. Ashleigh M.

“Ashleigh was an amazing pet sitter! I can't say enough good things about Ashleigh! She stepped in last minute to watch my cat and dog over the Thanksgiving holiday, and I’m so glad she did. From the start, she was incredibly communicative and prompt, and both of my pets took to her right away when she came for the meet-and-greet. I could tell they were in great hands immediately. I received daily updates and pictures throughout my trip, which really put me at ease. It was clear she was keeping them both happy and entertained, and I’m so grateful for that! When I returned, she had gone above and beyond—not only was everything in my home tidy, but she also left a sweet note about her time with my pets. My dog is a bit temperamental (she’s a chow mix), and this was my first time leaving her with someone who wasn’t family, so I was a little nervous. But Ashleigh handled it like a pro! She seemed to really connect with both my pets, and I could tell they had a great time with her. I was hesitant to use Rover at first since my pets mean the world to me, but after this experience, I feel so much more confident. I will absolutely be booking Ashleigh again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone. She’s a true animal lover, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. 10/10!”


12. Gabriela S.

“Gabriela was amazing! She kept in contact with me every step of the way, making sure I knew she made into the house, fed my cat, if she had any unexpected events come up, and when she was leaving to ensure there were no gaps in care or guessing game. Her degree as a vet tech also reassured me my kitty was in excellent hands! I’ve already hired Gabriela again for another stay.”


13. Ashley K.

“Ashley is really great with dogs! She knows how to interact with them and give them lots of love! She kept me updated throughout the whole sitting.”




14. Bobbi Jo L.

“Bobbi Jo was AMAZING. We needed a sitter last minute for our two dogs during our wedding - we wanted them to be there, but didn’t want to leave them alone when we were getting ready, dancing, etc. When she arrived I immediately felt comfortable leaving the pups with her, so I could focus on everything else. She came midday Saturday and stayed until after our wedding; she was comfortable hanging out with us while we got ready, and just making sure the dogs were taken care of. She walked them around the grounds and kept them within arms reach, if necessary, throughout the reception. And then fed them and watched TV with them as it got dark. Her presence allowed us to really enjoy our day! We’re so thankful.”

About: While you're away, rest assured that your dog is in excellent hands. You'll receive photos and updates, and your pet will enjoy walks, fresh water, meals, belly rubs, playtime, and more. No stress for you, and no stress for your furry friend, who will continue their routine as usual. I would love to meet you and your dog, get to know their environment, and see if we're a good fit. I have lifelong experience with dogs, including my 16-year companion, Jack, now gone, always in my heart... I understand the importance of peace of mind when traveling, knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. A happy pup means a happy owner, and peace of mind is priceless. I work from home... and I create my schedule based on needs and have flexibility throughout the day... it is a no-brainer to do this. I only provide drop-in visits and house sit for your convenience and especially that of your dog or cat. Peace of mind for you, and your fur baby.


16. Maria R.

“Five start does not justify what Maria has done. She did an excellent job caring for our dog. He is a senior dog who needs to be medicated three times a day. Maria took care of him aand our plants for three weeks. Everything was so smooth whole time, giving us comfort while we were away. We received daily pictures and updates. Our dog is very timid and whenever we are away, he gets very depressed. We were very worried (this time specifically) due to his age and need for medication. However, it is the first time that we come home finding him, not depressed at all. We greatly appreciate Maria for her taking care of our dog and the house. We will definitelyy hire her again!!!!”


17. Chantal C.

“Chantal did a wonderful job watching Luna while I was away! She was very responsive, provided me plenty of updates, and left my apartment in great condition. I would definitely recommend her!!”


18. Raven T.
About: Animal lover of all sorts. A family isn’t complete with a furry little or big four legged best friend. I have grown up all my life around animals dogs especially, now with children of my own I love to share that experience with them. Your dog or cat will be loved and care for just like you would take care of them. My goal is to ease their worry while you are working knowing they are having a great day themselves. Available and flexible times if needed . We run, we play and meet friends (if like to play with others dogs) long walks in the leaves or snow we come over in all weather. Pick me and your dog will sure have a day to remember


19. Kevin W.
“Kevin has watched my animals several times for me and has always taken care of them as his own. He is so loving and cares alot about animals. He has even helped me with my dog once when his foot got broken and the one vet said it would have to be amputated but Kevin insisted that he help me get a different opinion and I'm glad he talked me into it. My dog, Marvel, was given a cast and was able to keep his foot. Kevin even helped with the $600 bill. I hope that my testimony helps him with being able to further his passion with watching others pets. He has plenty of space in his yard and he is very attentive to all animals under his watch and care.”


20. Sarah S.
“Sarah is great with animals and has a true passion for care. She’s a great owner to her own dog, Remi, and I’ve seen her care toward other pets as well. I would trust Sarah fully with any of my pets!!”
