“Kelsey was always on time which is very important to me. She responds promptly to my texts and is easygoing and accomondating. Excellent experience after so many disappointing ones.”


2. Anna M.

“We love Anna! From the moment she asked if she could come meet my pup before booking, I knew she was amazing. Gracie, my 1 1/2 year old Maltipoo can be challenging and she was so patient and amazing with her. I felt so at ease going to my sister's wedding knowing that someone so caring, reliable, understanding, professional, and communicative was in my home with my fur baby. What I love most about Anna is her love for animals which shines through as soon as you meet her. She will contact you with any questions, which I love, and sent pictures and updates, also love! If you are thinking about booking with Anna, stop thinking and do it. You won't find another person quite like her! If we ever need a sitter again, she will be the first one we call. 💕🐶🐾”

“Chris is an excellent pet/house sitter and exactly what we were looking for. We appreciate the attentiveness and all the pictures! Looking forward to working with him again later this year :)”


4. Devon W.

“Devon was a great sitter for Lacey. Lacey took to her right away at the meet and greet. We were gone on vacation for almost two weeks so it was important for Lacey to be comfortable with her. Devon kept in touch with us and also sent photos of Lacey. She cared for her very well and we would hire her again should the need arise.”


5. Christina C.
“Christina takes amazing care of my little maci each and every time I need someone to come and watch her. She is reliable, caring and amazing when it comes to caring for your pets. Each time she goes the extra mile and I couldn’t be more thankful to have her watching our dog for over 5 years now !!!!! Anyone would be lucky to have her caring for there pets ! She will truly treat them as her own :)”


6. Stephanie S.
“I have a French bulldog and a pitbull and Stephanie watches them when we are on vacation or away for the weekend. She brings them on walks and when they come back from a walk they are out of breath and super happy! She always plays with them and makes sure they are fed and happy. She loves running around the backyard with them and loves walks with them. The pitbull is a big dog and the Frenchie is smaller and she is able to walk them together and control them. She is the most loving and caring dog sitter/owner I know!!!”


7. Jeannerazaky D.

“Great job very confident , patient and professional all needed to care for a giant breed .”


8. Julina D.

“I felt Julina’s enthusiasm for my fur baby the moment we met. She was so sweet to meetup in advance before our scheduled babysit date to see if she would vibe well with my Boston terrier. For the three nights she housesitted my baby Julina took good care of the apartment, kept me constantly updated about my baby’s well-being, and sent the cutest pictures! Julina is a bubble of joy to talk with and be around. I’m a first-time user of Rover so I took a while looking for people. I was friggin lucky to find Julina, especially during this holiday season! Look no further if she’s available for your dates hit that book button ASAP 😊”


9. Kelley R.

“Kelley did a great job taking care of our 2 dogs and cat. She stayed in our home with them while we were away and even came back to feed them again when our flight home was cancelled. She reached out a few days before our booking as well to reconfirm which I very much appreciated. She sent updates and photos while she was watching them which definitely helped to let us relax while we were away knowing that our fur family was being well cared for. I would recommend Kelley to anyone needing a pet sitter and I will definitely have her take care of ours again.”


10. Hana T. S.

“Hana was a fantastic sitter and I highly recommend her for boarding. She watched my dog Zuzu for a few nights and sent lots of videos and photos, which made me feel comfortable enjoying my trip while my dog was home. She was very thorough and neat, and a very thoughtful dog sitter. I recommend her for all your dog and cat sitting needs. :)”

13. Kristen G.

“Kristen was awesome with Noelle! I appreciate her taking such good care of Noelle! Would definitely use her again!”


14. Becky M.
“I recently hired a Becky to help me out with my furry friend, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. Becky was professional, reliable, and most importantly, my dog loved her! Becky was friendly and took the time to get to know my dog's personality and needs. She was also very flexible with scheduling, which was a huge help for me. During the walks, Becky always kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. She also went above and beyond by bringing water and treats for my dog, which was a nice touch. Overall, I highly recommend Becky to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person to take care of their furry friend. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”


15. Shushma R.
“Hello, Shushma and her family is really awesome!! I took my dogs there and they were so comfortable at their home. They love pets and my dogs loved them. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a clean, safe and loving environment. You can definitely trust them with your pets you won’t regret it 😊”


16. Mitsaida C P.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs at home. I have never pet-sat for others before, but I can do the basics and I am willing to learn more. As a full-time college student, I am mostly available in the afternoons and on weekends. I can mostly provide walks and drop-ins during these times. Although I don't have much experience, I am willing to learn more about pet care. When caring for pets in my client's home, I will ensure that they are safe and comfortable. I will follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owner. I will also make sure to play with them and providing them with the attention they need.


17. Gloria K.


“Gloria is simply amazing and her love for animals is wonderful. We felt very comfortable leaving our little boy Winston with her. We highly recommend her.”


18. Deborah C.

“Deborah is the best! She walks our 2 labs weekly + babysits and made us feel so comfortable leaving the dogs at home with her. Would highly recommend!”


19. Ricardo S.

“Great experience with Ricardo doing a homestay with my cat. He was respectful and took great care of our 18 year old needy cat. Good communication. We will book again!”


20. Cindy A.
“Cindy has a natural way with dogs and treats every pup as if they were her own. She has years of experience, not just with her own dog, but also in looking after ours whenever we need help. Whether it’s for a short stay or a longer trip, we always know our dog is in great hands. He comes home happy, well cared for, and full of energy. Cindy is responsible, kind, and truly understands what dogs need to feel comfortable and loved.”
