“Lauren was very communicative, left the apartment extremely clean, followed instructions, and took good care of our dog. When our trip got extended by a few hours, Lauren was very understanding and accommodating of staying with our dog a bit longer to close the gap. My neighbor also reached out saying that she saw Lauren with our dog in the hallway of our building and that she was doing a great job with her. Overall, we would definitely hire Lauren again!”

“I highly recommend having Lydia take care of your pet. She took great care of my pup, did a fantastic job communicating updates, and left the apartment cleaner than she found it. I will 100% ask her to watch Suki the next time I need a sitter. Thanks so much, Lydia!!”

“Kyndall was great! Mia ran up to her immediately wanting to be her best friend at our initial meet & greet, which you know says a lot about Kyndall's vibe. She didn't blink an eye at all of Mia's medications or routine. She was respectful of my space and sent me plenty of pics of Mia while I was away — a huge comfort for anxious moms of old dogs! 10/10 recommend.”

“Amy is a gem! We did not plan on having a small kitten along with our two adult cats when we planned a trip, and realized a house sitter was needed to continue monitoring and acclimating our cat fam. Amy responded to all communication promptly, sent pics and updates throughout, and left our house immaculate. We came home to cats who were relaxed and happy. Highly recommend Amy's services, she is a trustworthy professional.”

“Christina is consistently incredible! She had to deal with a high stress situation (completely out of her control) while taking care of my dogs and handled it beautifully. Incredible sitter, and would recommend to anybody!”

“Jayme did a great job! He sent photos and updates, took good care of both our dog and our place, and Gianna seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. He went overboard by making sure Gianna was ok when our flight home was delayed.”

“Andrea did an amazing job looking after Rudy. She was super attentive, caring, and provided lots of updates. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”


“Mazarine was communicative and provided excellent care of my dog. He is a senior with some special dietary and medication needs and she provided wonderful care.”

“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”

“I never want to work with another sitter after how well Amy cared for my cat, Pawblo. He’s super friendly, but can be standoffish with strangers. He was straight up snuggling with Amy within three days. ❤️ I loved all the updates — photos and video — and that I’ve found someone who can house sit as well. Amy even took it upon herself to wash my bedsheets on her last day! She is super responsive, asks great questions, and is overall a really sweet human. I was honestly concerned that, when I got back from my 10 day trip, Pawblo would ask me to leave and send her back in. ? 10/10 experience all the way around. Thank you, Amy!”

“Virginia was great! Helped out watching our two dogs on short notice. She was super nice, responsive and thoughtful. The dogs loved her and she took great care of our dogs and house! Would absolutely work with her again.”

“Julissa has house sat with my pup and cat several times now! She’s definitely one of my go to sitters and super easy to work with. I always feel at ease when traveling knowing the fur babies are in good hands. Great updates and photos and the house is always in perfect shape upon return. Super grateful and highly recommend :)”

“Stephanie is the best, truly an animal whisperer. She went above and beyond, giving me peace of mind. The cat and dog, each having never before interacted with the other species, spent a nice, peaceful, happy visit together thanks to Stephanie.”

“Sarah was a fantastic sitter from start to finish. We've had some terrible experiences with sitters over the years, so we know (and appreciate!) a good one when we find one. From my first interaction with Sarah, she was responsive, professional, and very pleasant. She took excellent care of our 3 dogs and older cat. They are a cute crew- but a lot of work! Sarah made it look easy, and she left our home in great shape too. Highly recommend!”

“Marc is absolutely incredible! He is wonderfully kind, gentle and patient with my high energy puppy. He took her on long walks each day and stayed with her in my home. He kept me updated with pictures throughout the day. I will always call him as my first choice when I am away.”

“Nicole went above and beyond to sit our dogs, even when they were difficult at times. She was very communicative and thorough, asking lots of great questions. She also left our place in great shape!”


About: I have been my go-to pet person in my friend circle, whether it is home stays with their dogs or checking in on their cats to make sure they are fed/have clean spaces. My reward has always been the quality time with the animals, I pride myself on being their favorite non-family members! I was recently laid off, so I have full availability (and will make sure my interview schedule does not interfere, or I can work around it). If there are any conflicts, I will always communicate them to owners to make sure they can plan around it and ensure the best care for their pets. I will always have lots of patience and respect for pets' boundaries as a stranger stepping into their space! I make sure to follow owners' instructions as well, with regard for caring for their pets and respecting homes. Additionally, I understand that not all pets have the same needs, and never try to assume your pet's behavior based on other experiences. They all communicate differently, and learning that process is what I find most rewarding in caring for them!
“Mecca was so great! We had her stay in the house for about one week and you could tell the cats were missing us, but were so happy with the care they’d received. The house was in great shape and she even changed the sheets before she left, which she didn’t need to do, but was a nice surprise. She kept us informed when we asked but didn’t bombard us with cat photos. We’ve been through a good amount of Rovers and so many of the people don’t do basic things even with explicit instructions (like fill water). Mecca may be ‘the one’ Highly recommend!”

Kymberlee was super proactive with communication to ensure all my pup’s needs would be met! She asked great questions beforehand which was very comforting! I felt confident leaving my girl with her. During the service days she was very communicative & caring of my girl. Would absolutely rebook. Thank you Kymberlee!

She is an amazing pet sitter! She really understands animals, and our dog absolutely adores her. (Our cat still needs a little more time, though 🥲) She also works at a dog grooming salon, so she shares lots of helpful grooming tips and advice that we didn’t know before. She has been such a great help to us, and our dog always looks forward to seeing her!

Chinyere was very communicative and attentive when she watched my dog. She was great about sending photo updates and keeping us informed about our pup. She was also an excellent house guest and left everything very clean and tidy. Having her there was great, as we could enjoy our trip knowing our dog was being taken care of at home. I look forward to booking her again and would absolutely recommend her.

Alejandra was a dream come true. She stayed at our place with our two cats when we went on vacation and was everything anybody could wish for in a cat sitter. Our kitties were taken care of and happy, Alejandra was very communicative and attentive to detail, very respectful of our home, sent a lot of great pictures, and clearly built a nice bond with both cats that even our more anxious kitty was hanging out and playing with her. Truly can’t recommend her enough and just hoping that she will be available next time we’ll need to leave town. Thank you so much Alejandra!

Danielle did a great job taking care of Asher while we were out of town. She checked in with us and sent pictures every day which helped put us at ease. She was reliable and also left our house super clean which was awesome. We will definitely be booking her again!!

We've had Alaina dog/house-sit for us 3x: Aug, Sept, and Oct. The first one was for just 1 overnight and the other 2 were longer stays. Our 2 dogs get very excited/barky with new people, but I think they warmed up to Alaina quickly. For all 3 jobs, Alaina stayed at our house. She would go home (she happens to live near us) to occasionally check on her own pets, but always came back to make sure our girls were taken care of and that they were never left alone overnight. Regarding communication, I had to proactively check in w/ her a few times over the 3 jobs, but she responded quickly, sent cute pics, and then was sending a lot of great pupdates by the 3rd visit (which we love)! We will definitely request Alaina's services again and do recommend her for in-house stays!
