6. Marideth W.
“Could not be happier with Marideth's house-sitting! She took great care of both my mother's and my own cats while we were away. She also went the extra mile to make sure our trash was out and snow shoveled when the snow came! 10/10 would book her again!”
7. Marti M.
“Marti is fantastic! We had a meet and greet couple of weeks ago. That sealed the deal for me. She had a calming effect on my 16 month old Maltipoo. Missy snuggled up to Marti and trusted her. Marti offered to drive me and pick me up from my eye doctor appointment . It worked out great. Missy was such a good girl riding in Marti’s car. Very pleasant, stress free experience for us. Marti is a kind, smart lady. Her past experience is evident. She will watch Missy again in December at my house for a weekend. So happy to have found Marti.”

9. Jamie M.
“This was my very first time ever hiring a house sitter!! Of course I was nervous but once I met Jamie and saw how sweet she is my anxiousness pretty much completely dissipated and I was able to enjoy visiting my son at college for the weekend without worry. She took pics of our dogs and constantly communicated with me so I felt confident that the dogs were content. I would totally hire her again! Thank you, Jamie! 🙂”

16. Carolyn T.
“This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous about having a stranger watch my dog because she has a lot of anxiety. Carolyn did a meet and greet earlier in the week to make sure it was a good fit. She arrived on time and took good care of my dog, sending lots of picks of her playing. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
17. Forest M.
“Would absolutely recommend Forest as a sitter! Max was comfortable and happy while we were away. Max even followed him to the door while he was leaving, a little sad to see his new friend go!”
18. Maia L.
“Maia was kind enough to come to a meet and greet visit days before the sitting job. I enjoyed our time chatting and getting to know a bit about her. I felt really good about leaving Sully with her. During the actual sitting job, she had planned many activities to help keep my high energy puppy busy. We know that they went for walks, played ball and much more as he was tired out! And that was a good thing! Looking forward to a repeat visit. Thanks Maia for taking such good care of Sully.”

20. Andrea B.
“Andrea was great! I had her watch two of my dogs while I was away on a three day trip she drop by during the day just like she said she would took care of the dogs and then I had her stay the two nights with the dogs and the dogs look extremely happy! I would highly recommend her. I was definitely in a pinch and needed somebody to take care of them She stepped right up to the plate. I have no complaints at all. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. They did an excellent job very very happy and satisfied.!”
