“Emily was great with our 1 year old golden retriever. She was very communicative and he loved her! She sent many pictures and he was a very happy dog. Would definitely recommend!”

“JayLynne took great care of our puppy Sky and accommodated for a last minute change in my work schedule. She communicated with us very well and asked many questions about Sky. I felt very comfortable leaving Sky with her and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Sage was WONDERFUL! My little fur baby can be quite the handful (she’s very hyperactive), and Sage was so great with her! She constantly sent me pictures and assurances that my dog was doing great while I was away. She definitely helped ease the worry I had from being away from my baby!”

“Vannessa and Jason stayed in our home to watch our 2 dogs for 4 nights. They did an amazing job! They were very communicative, sent us lots of photos and updates and kept our home spotless. In fact, they left the house cleaner than when we had left. I highly recommend Vannessa and Jason!”

“This is the best dog sitting experience I have had in awhile! Allison is very detail oriented and i felt comfortable with her right from the meet and greet. I have two cattledog mixes, and she made sure that their energy needs were met but also they got their snuggle time too! She gave plenty of updates and we came back to a clean and organized home. I had no worries and was able to enjoy my time away. I cannot recommend her enough and i look forward to the next time we need to book her again in the future.”

“Dwayne took good care of my 50 pound pittie. He was not phased by his various quirks and kept in touch with me while I was away. When he wasn't sure about the meaning of a minor behavior change, he checked in with me to make sure it was nothing to be concerned about. When I returned, my home was at least as clean and tidy as it was when I left. I will happily hire Dwayne again.”

“Tamara did a great job House Sitting and walking Maverick. She followed all instructions and sent photos during her stay. She was easy to communicate with and follow through on all plans. I felt very comfortable having her stay at my home and she left everything in order. I highly recommend Tamara and will definitely book her for future needs.”

“Ashley was a great pet and house sitter while we were out of town. She was very communicative, sent us daily updates and even helped us out with a couple of house requests. Will definitely be re-booking!”

“Kim was perfect watching our two boys while we were away on vacation. She followed all instructions, gave us great updates/pics, and best of all the boys loved her! She left my apartment exactly as it was before her stay, and was extra sensitive to me as it was my first time with a dog sitter. Highly recommend her and will book her again in the future :) thank you so much Kim!”

“Angela did such a great job house sitting and watching our two Frenchies for us! We got updates, pictures, and videos, which were very appreciated. We've already booked her for another weekend!”

“Audrey is a gem! My dog was unwell while I was away and Audrey handled everything so perfectly and with great calm. She took such good care of my fur baby and I am so grateful. Will continue to look to Audrey for my dog’s care!”

“Once again, Dwayne took great care of my reactive, temperamental mid-sized dog, Jacques, while I was away for a week. He messaged me daily with photos and an update, and alerted me when Jacques had a rough night with some stomach issue. He understood how to handle Jacques' unreliable moods and behavior, gave a twice daily medication, and followed our normal routine for feeding and walks. Jacques was very calm and chill when I returned home. Highly recommend for his ability to handle difficult dogs!”

“Evelyn stayed with our pup for 5 days. She kept us updated with everything and sent photos (which I love!!). She is thoughtful and considerate and I felt at ease having her in my home while we were away. Dakota got so many cuddles and walks. Already booking her again.”

“Shelby sat at our home with our dogs. They warmed up quickly to her and we're very happy she sat for us. She left our home tidy, and we will book her again for sure in the future.”


“Emily was INCREDIBLE!! She provided multiple updates daily, including pics & videos, and even taught the dogs new tricks while we were gone!! She left our house so clean and tidy, and is overall very responsive, responsible, and communicative. It’s so nice to have someone you can trust with your fur babies. You can tell she really enjoys spending time with them, and wants to do the best by them.”

“Janice is awesome. Roxy bonded with her immediately. Janice was prompt, attentive, and kept us updated with messages, photos and videos. Our girl was comfy and relaxed in her own environment thanks to Janice. We will definitely check with her for future sitting!”

“Janet is the best! She is amazing with our senior dog who needs daily meds and our crazy kittens. It’s such a gift to go out of town without worries! With Janet, you know that your pets are in great hands.”

“Sarah is fantastic!!! She is very friendly and engaging which eased my mind about leaving my dog. She sent pictures and left messages about how he was doing. We would hire Sarah again without hesitation.”

“Anna was amazing, not only did she show up on time, but she sent me several check ins throughout the night. She made sure that I knew that my Furkid was happy and safe. She followed the directions I left for her to the T. Anna was extremely punctual and professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of pet sitting. She was the epitome of a perfect pet sitter. I will definitely book her again ❤️”

Tamara was amazing! It was the first time I’ve left my puppy with an “unknown” person. But Heaven was happy to see her from the first second at our ‘warm up meeting’ until I just stepped through the door returning from my trip. Proactive communication, regular updates with photos and videos as well as very professional behavior. Definitely recommending Tamara! :)

Emily was INCREDIBLE!! She provided multiple updates daily, including pics & videos, and even taught the dogs new tricks while we were gone!!

You can tell she really enjoys spending time with them, and wants to do the best by them.

Vannessa and Jason were amazing! They took such great care of our two pups and home. We were gone for 2 weeks and this was the longest we’d ever been away. It was such a stress free trip entrusting them with our pups! They were very communicative and provided updates and pics everyday while we were gone. The house was so clean when we came back! Cannot recommend them enough. We will definitely be asking them to housesit everytime we leave!

Nyako, goes by Koko, did an absolutely wonderful job house sitting for us and caring for our 3 kids. We are in the process of moving overseas, so our home was fairly sparse on furniture, but she took it completely in stride and made the most of the situation without missing a beat. Throughout the weekend, she kept us regularly updated, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed our instructions to the letter and clearly put the kids’ comfort and happiness first, they had a great time with her. Coming home to a house that was actually cleaner than when we left was the cherry on top! It’s rare to find someone so reliable, warm, and adaptable. We felt completely calm and at ease during our trip knowing the house and our pups were in such good hands. We would hire her again in a heartbeat, the only reason we can’t is because we’re heading overseas. Recommend 10/10, without hesitation.

This was my first time using Rover and first time leaving any of my dogs under anyone’s care, but Liz gave me so much ease when I went out of town to visit my family. From first meeting Bane, she was very open to learning about him to ensure she knew how to care for him while I was away. While I was away, Liz shared pictures and reached out with updates. I had lost signal having been in the mountains but I wasn’t worried knowing Bane was with her. When I returned home, everything was in its place. Liz went the extra mile here. Bane looked happy and well rested too. I couldn’t be happier knowing Liz is someone we can trust

We had a wonderful experience with Jared and highly recommend him. He took exceptional care of our sweet, mellow lab and treated her like part of the family. We received frequent updates and photos every day, which gave us great piece of mind while away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear our dog was getting lots of attention, care, and affection. We will definitely will book again in the future!
