Sherry was wonderful. She was very responsible and took the best care of Dolly and Wrigley. She was very good to Wrigley when it started to rain. He gets scared and she sat with him calming him down. Definitely hoping our schedules line up for my next trip.

Sarah was an amazing animal and house sitter. Our dogs warmed up to her right away. Even one of the cats came out to snuggle. Sarah checked in every day with pictures and updates. Thank you Sarah! ~Finn, Kida, Nelson and Milo

Joshua did a great job watching our pets in our home over two short weekends away. They seemed happy and healthy when we returned. Joshua communicated with us before, during, and after his time with our pets. He even emptied the litter box when we didn’t ask!

Palma was a pleasure to work with. She responds quickly to inquiries and is very prompt. She has a kind and sunny disposition and clearly loves animals. I felt so confident leaving our dog and home in her care. She sent us pics and updates which helped with our missing our pet. Everything in our home, and with our dog, was cared for with attention and detail. I would definitely use her again, and again!

Felicia took care of our dog Roscoe while we took a quick trip to see family down south. From the minute I met her I knew she was going to take good care of Roscoe. She sent pictures and communicated daily on how he was doing, it helped a lot to know he was being well taken care of. We definitely will be asking Felicia to watch Roscoe if we need another sitter.

Joanna and her daughter took excellent care of our two dogs and our house! They kept us updated with frequent photos of our dogs, which was a nice touch. This was our first time booking on Rover so we were a little nervous, but after meeting Joanna, we were at ease. She exceeded all of our expectations and we plan on booking her again during our next vacation. She is a top notch pet/house sitter! A+++ Thank you, Joanna!!

Isabel was so great and kind to our two pups! She sent photo and message updates about how they were doing throughout her stay. She was also incredibly helpful with an issue in our home that had nothing to do with our dogs. Highly recommend her for your pet care needs!

I have two Australian cattle dogs; 1 and 2 years old. They have a TON of puppy energy so Shannon is a lifesaver by helping relive their energy 2-3 times a week. I am very cautious of who I allow to watch my dogs, but I never have to worry when they are with Shannon. She is patient, caring, and has a positive energy that my dogs vibe with. 1000/10 recommend her services!

Christine was fantastic! We have five cats that she watched for us on short notice while we were out of town over the weekend - two of the cats are special-needs and need medication, and two of the cats are fosters that required special handling. Christine did a great job handling the medication and special care of all of our cats, and she texted me photos and updates regularly!

Heather just completed a week of watching over our dog Cooper. She was phenominal, and took fantastic care of Cooper throughout the week!! She walked him frequently, kept to his eating and bathroom schedule, and had no issues staying over at night to keep him company. Heather provided frequent updates and pictures each day, which helped reassure my family that Cooper was in very responsible and loving hands. She gave him all the attention he needed, but most importantly made sure he was loved at a time period that was likely very confusing for him. She also went above and beyond by taking in our mail, bringing packages inside, and even did some of our laundry. The house was impeccable when we returned....cleaner than when we left. She is so friendly, easy going and likeable! It's never easy leaving your pet and entrusting their care with another person, but the next time around it will be easier because I won't hesitate to ask for her services again. 5 star rating without a doubt!! I would highly recommend her. Thank you again Heather!

Hello- Christina is the most genuine person you'll ever meet. She always has a smile on her face. Her positive disposition attracts people and furry friends alike. She's a seasoned pet owner. Her best furry friend just recently passed away from old age. Although his passing was felt by family and friend alike, we are all certain that he had the best life and was the luckiest little guy to have Christina as his mom. She gave him all the best care and affection a pup could receive. She's gentle, loyal, and kind. Her two kittens are the light of her life, and they too are dotted on and loved beyond words. Having Christina in your team would be a blessing, not only for your company but for the pets that would be so lucky as to be taken care of by her.
