“Tassia took great care of our two girls while we were traveling. Leaving them home is always stressful and we miss them, but she took the time to get to know them before our trip, asked thoughtful questions, and kept us updated with photos while we were away. We will definitely work with Tassia again!”

“Natalie is the best. So reliable and our pup doesn't miss it at all. We had a last minute digestive upset and she was on top of it with special diet, monitoring potty breaks etc. Thanks, Natalie!”

“Annie was such a wonderful companion for our pup while we were gone for a long weekend! She communicated very well with us a couple of times a day sending photos and really putting any anxiety I may have had at ease. When I got home our dog was in a great mood and our place was just as clean as we left it. Will definitely book with her again and highly recommend!”

“Dale was very responsive to me and receptive to the dogs! It was clear the dogs were very well attended to and they loved getting to spend the weekend together! Dale’s intake was thorough and complete making sure the dogs were covered on all basis!”

“Sol has watched my dog a few times and they are wonderful. They communicate daily on how my pup is doing and send lots of photos. They are very respectful of our home and always leave my home better than they found it. I will certainly book with Sol again.”

“Michelle is great! She took care of our two big dogs and kept us updated when one broke his nail. He is fine, but she kept a close eye on him, which is exactly what we needed while we were away! We’ll definitely be booking her again!”
“I had a good experience having Gabriel watch my dog Ash for an evening. His communication was good, he showed up on time, and he even did a little bit of training by declining to reward my dog’s undesirable behavior with attention and reinforcing the good behavior once it was presented, without me asking him to. Would happily have him dog sit again!”

“Tanner is awesome! She house-sat for our dog and 2 cats for 10 days, and did an amazing job. She checked in with us daily with an update and photos of the pets, was diligent about house stuff like plant care and garbage, and left our house extremely clean. She even arranged a couple play dates with her own dog (after confirming it was okay with us of course!) and Dessa seemed to have a great time. Tanner definitely gave us peace of mind while she was house sitting which is invaluable when you’re on a long trip! We highly recommend her and would love to book her again.”

“Jade was punctual, kind, and took amazing care of our sweet old man! We appreciate her willingness to turn up at an ungodly hour to watch our pup, and will 1000% be booking with her again the next time we need someone to sit with him!!”

“Eunice was great watching our two dogs while we were in Italy! She kept in good contact, and left our house cleaner than when we left it! We are glad to have found a great sitter for future trips!”

“She took amazing care of my cat Chico while we were away. He’s very spoiled and usually not friendly, but he became so comfortable and bonded with her right away. That says everything. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I will definitely rebook her—highly recommend!”

“David was absolutely amazing with our 2 dogs! He took them for a few walks, while making sure they got well hydrated and rested in between. Our dogs slept very well that night! Also, David was very communicative and kept us updated on how and what our pups were doing. And aside from the love he showed our dogs, David is a very nice man with a vast knowledge of all types of dogs. I would definitely recommend David and would reach out to him again if we’re in town.”

“100% amazing! Thank you so so much for taking such good care of our Apple i would highly recommend. Josh gave us so many updates and pictures and cleaned our house. Cannot wait to book again!”

“Highly recommend Noah for housesitting. He took such great care of my pup and was very attentive to his needs. Sent lots of pictures and updates, which I love. And he left the apartment nice and clean when I came home!! Will definitely be booking with him again.”

“Natalia was wonderful with my clingy cats! She sent multiple pictures throughout the day and was very attentive to their needs. She also asked lots of questions during our meet and greet and I can tell she is great with cats!”

“Wonderful sitter. Nikki took amazing care of my dogs and left the house immaculate. Would highly recommend. Great communication and compassion for my girls!! Will definitely use again!”
“Deven was an outstanding house sitter for our 13 month old goldendoodle and shy cat. He was fastidious, excellent at communication, sent lots of pictures and updates and was very proactive. You can tell he is an animal lover! I enthusiastically recommend him for your dog sitting needs!”

Erin is the best. My dog was so well cared for. She normally feels nervous around people, but she felt safe with Erin right away. I got lots of photos of her cuddling, which she only does when she feels safe. Some strange things happened in my building that alerted me and helped my dog feel safe again. My apartment was cleaner than when I left it. They are wonderful.

Lily was great. She took good care of my special needs dogs, who have a couple med admins a day. She even helped when the dogs’ physical therapist came. She also took good care of the house, and everything was clean when I came home. Would definitely use her again.

Zoë took amazing care of our two dogs! She is by far the best Rover we have worked with. We will absolutely book Zoë again. She was responsive and communicative. I didn’t worry about the dogs once for the week we were away. She left our home exactly as she found it and we came home to two very happy pups.

Dafne was amazing with my 8 year old Great Dane! Mac can be timid and slow to warm up and her calm demeanor and patience had him warmed up in no time. They had a wonderful weekend together and I got so many picture updates. 🥰 I’d love to have Dafne stay with my guy again and would recommend her to anyone!

Jessi was an incredible sitter! She gave predictable updates everyday with lots of pictures and even made a beautiful checklist showing our pup getting his food and medication each day. I felt completely at ease that our pup was being well cared for while we were gone

Cassandra watched my dog while I was on vacation for a week - she was an absolute pleasure to work with and have in my home! My dog loved her and was very happy, she was super communicative and reliable, and she left my home in excellent condition ❤️ I would highly recommend her!

Erin was great. My pup wasn't feeling well while we were away and Erin kept her comfortable and me well informed of her status. I came home to a clean house and a happy dog. Erin clearly loves animals and cared for my dog as her own. I highly recommend her for home pet sitting.

Emily did a great job taking care of Penny, especially giving her a liquid antibiotic via syringe which was an unplanned care item. Penny was very happy and well adjusted when we came home which meant she was quite comfortable with Emily. The house was in perfect shape and we would definitely have Emily sit for us again.

Dianna was hands down the best house sitter we’ve ever had. We needed someone to care for our husky, Lilo, while we were out of town for several days, and Dianna exceeded every expectation. She was incredibly attentive, reliable, and communicative throughout our trip. Every day, she sent detailed updates and plenty of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Lilo was happy, safe, and well cared for. When we got home, Lilo was excited to see us, but it was obvious she had formed a special bond with Dianna. In fact, we think she was a little disappointed it wasn’t Dianna walking through the door! That alone speaks volumes about the care, attention, and love she provided. We would recommend Dianna without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and exceptional house sitter.

Megan was so nice! Extremely friendly and instantly made me feel reassured my 4 cats would be in good hands 🥹 our apartment was spotless when we came home and all the kitties got a good brushing. I love that she provided updates and super cute pictures, but made sure to check what our preference was for frequency since we were on a work trip and would be fairly unavailable. Super thoughtful! Highly recommend Megan although I wish she could cat sit only for me 🤭

I can't recommend Aubrey enough! She is absolutely wonderful with my pets, and they adore her. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. My pets were so happy and relaxed in her presence. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found her, and I will definitely continue to book her services whenever I need a sitter!
