1. Amanda T.
“Amanda was the best dog sitter. She kept us up to date and listened to the things our dog loved to make her so happy during while we were away. Will definitely book with Amanda again. 😊”
2. Kayla N.
“This was our first time doing house sitting through Rover, and I was a bit nervous. But Kayla was very communicative and got rid of any nerves we had about it! Our pup loved her and had so much fun snuggling and playing outside with her. She also left our house nice and tidy and was even kind enough to put sheets in the washer and take out the trash, which was not expected. Will definitely book again!”
3. Bailey Y.
“Bailey was great with our dog,Lena. Unexpectedly, Lena was on medication when we were out of town and Bailey easily managed it, no problem. She responded quickly to our messaged and everything went smoothly! Lena would love to hang out with Bailey again”
4. Kelsey L.
“Kelsey was absolutely amazing especially with my girl dog who was really scared of the fireworks over the 4th of July weekend. We really appreciated her! I would highly recommend her 🫶”
5. MacKenzie H.
“This was my first booking MacKenzie to stay with Coco in our home for 5 nights and would definitely recommend MacKenzie. She was very respectful, communicative, punctual, and most importantly very sweet with Coco. She let me know right away before booking of any prior commitments that she had. She followed all instructions I left for Coco and reached out with any questions she had. She left our home clean and organized. We hope to book MacKenzie again soon!”
6. Darcy O.
“Darcy spent almost 2 weeks with my 13 year old dog. She was great with staying on top of his diet/meds. I will definitely have her watch him again.”
7. Heather W.
“Heather is so incredible with my dogs! She’s so caring and looks after them as though they were her fur kids! There is no one else I would trust with my babies. I never have to worry that she’s let them be alone too long without a pee break or without snuggles. She’s the best!”
8. Dina J.
“Dina was awesome as usual! She loves our puppies as if they were her own and communication is top notch. We are always so happy when she can watch after our pups in our home when we are out of town!”
9. Haley R.
“Haley was absolutely amazing. My dog is my baby and she made me feel absolutely comfortable with her looking after him and staying in my home.”
10. Gabriella R.
“Thank you for keeping Cooper during such a difficult weekend with the electricity out the entire time. I am so sorry it fell on that weekend. We really appreciate you hanging in there and taking care of Cooper and keeping us posted on things.”
11. Dale W.
“Dale was fantastic. Our dog gave him a hard time at the beginning and he was very patient, caring, and persistent. He won her over and she loved him. We just got home yesterday and I think she misses him. He was also great with our cat who is not very friendly or accepting of strangers. He sent photos and videos everyday which we loved. He also had to deal with our water heater leaking and went above and beyond to make sure there was no damage to our floor etc. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He’s great!”
12. Ashleigh J.
“We were very impressed with Ashleigh’s care for our two dogs. Our energetic sheepadoodle requires a lot of playtime, and Ashleigh dedicated nearly all her free moments to playing fetch with him. She also managed our house, watering the plants and handling the mail. Thanks to her, our vacation was fantastic. We’ll certainly reach out to her for our future trips.”
13. Amelia B.
About: I have taken care of dogs of many different breeds and sizes for a couple of years now. Family and friends have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets as well as look after their house if needed! I am currently a student, so when I am not in school I have time to walk or take care of a dog during most of the week! I have lots of experience watching animals in their own home. I keep the house tidy and even cleaner than when I arrived. I make sure the animal always has plenty of food, fitness, and any other care requirements the dog may need!
14. Lucy F.
“Lucy is a caring and responsible pet caregiver. She is always attentive, reliable, and will ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.”
15. Anna K.
“Anna was great with my Stella! She really took the time to get to know Stella before the booking to make sure they were a good fit. Anna communicated really well with me and kept me updated frequently. She made sure to ask any relevant questions about my dog’s care. My dog Stella was happy, relaxed, and well taken care of when I returned home, and that is all because of how well Anna took care of her! I definitely recommend her!”
16. Amber B.
“Amber was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs!! She kept us very updated with pictures and messages and even checked in with us on a potential medical issue. They both need oral medication and she was comfortable with that and made sure they had what they needed. We loved having her take care of our pups and felt confident they were safe and happy with her! We’d recommend her to any other families that need someone to love and care for their pets while they’re away!”
17. Jennifer M.
“Jennifer really helped us out last minute when another sitter fell through. She was so great with our 2 dogs and sent lots of pictures and updates. They seemed to really enjoy their time while we were away. We would absolutely book her again. 👍🏻”
18. Mary W.
“This is the second time Mary has watched my pup for me and I will definitely continue requesting her! She is a delight and takes such good care of my girl :) Thank you!”
19. Chay H.
“We were lucky enough to book Chay for drop ins and then tack on a last minute trip having her house sit. She was friendly and comfortable with our pets and we loved receiving pictures of them every day!”
20. Alexandria B.
