“Michelle is incredible!!!! I travel quite a bit for work, and I’m so thrilled to have someone like Michelle to rely on. We have an elderly dog, a cat, a rat, and some amphibian/aquatic friends, all with their own unique needs. Michelle cares for them all with kindness and diligence. 10/10.”
4. Stephanie S.
“This was my first time using a stranger to take care of my dogs and I was a little nervous. However, Stephanie took great care of my two dogs. She sent lots of updates and daily photos. She was also very communicative and very respectful of our house. I would not hesitate to use Stephanie again!”
5. Brandi W.
“She was great! We have 3 big dogs and she knew how to interact with them, even our more difficult to handle one. She sent pictures and kept us up-to-date which was so nice.”
6. Larcy A.
“Larcy took amazing care of our cat Jojo while house sitting for a week while we were abroad. Jojo can be temperamental and not warm to people easily, but she had a great week with Larcy and you could see her content and happiness through the photos Larcy shared with us throughout the week. When we arrived home Jojo was calm and happy- didn’t seem like she even missed us at all! Our house was also left clean and spotless. We are very picky cat parents and are truly so happy we found Larcy. We will definitely be rebooking with her for our future needs.”
7. Sophia B.
“Sophia was great! She watched our pup for 6 nights and gave him tons of love and cuddles. No complaints! Will be requesting Sophia next time we need a sitter.”
8. Sarah M.
“This was our 2nd time with Sarah. My 3 fur babies love her. One of them is very sensitive and every time I am away, ends up with diarrhea. However the first time we tried Sarah no one had diarrhea. When we tried her 2nd time, even longer days, no one had diarrhea. My shy dog even opened up to Sarah pretty quickly. We will be going for her services in future for sure.”
9. Kritika G.
“Kritika is such a wonderful pet sitter! Kritika recently watched our two kitties while we were out of town and as usual was fantastic. She took the time to play with them, fed them their favorite treats, and sent lovely thoughtful updates to let us know how they were doing. Our cats love Kritika and we are very grateful for the care she provides!”
10. Paige D.
“Paige was beyond our wildest dreams!! So communicative, great with our dog, so kind, and really respectful of our space. Our dog was so happy and clearly so taken care of when we got home and we felt so comfortable the whole time we were away. We’ll definitely book again in the future!!”
11. Ariana L.
“Ariana was amazing with our 3 pups as we felt very comfortable right away leaving our pups in her care. Ariana was on time and sent lots of pictures to us. We really appreciated all that Ariana did for us and our babies. Thanks so much!!!”
12. Maleka B.
“Maleka was amazing for us and our two golden retrievers (1 and 3). First time house sitting for us and we couldn't have asked for more. We went to the hospital for baby delivery and she was available same day to start watching our dogs taking a huge stress away for us. She kept us informed on how the dogs were doing and lots of photos. She even stripped the bedding for us when all done. Would highly reccomend and will plan to book again in the future.”
13. Naomi R.
“Naomi did amazing with Lulu and Fritz they seemed to like her a lot. I was very happy to come home to happy pups. Will definitely be using her again. She left my house also really clean and looked like she wasn’t there at all.”
14. Tiana S.
“Tiana was AMAZING! We needed someone to stay with our dog and bunny at our house for two nights in a pinch. We reached out to Tiana, she was quick in her response and even early for her meet and greet with us. We felt very comfortable with her from the minute she walked in the door. We didn't need to worry for one second about our fur babies and look forward to having her stay with our kiddos again.”
15. Lois B.
“We are so grateful to Lois who took care of our high energy, high maintenance dog. This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous dog parents but Lois was great at communicating, sending lots of updates and photos each day. She clearly loves animals and has a lot of patience to deal with our boy who isn’t always the easiest. Also bonus to come home to a clean home.”
16. Brooke G.
“We are so grateful that Brooke was available to take care of our older dog. She got him out of the house for walks and also cuddled him on the couch (his favorite). Brooke was an enjoyable house guest as well. Very clean and respectful. Will definitely book again!”
17. Steve B.
“Booked Steve again because he is simply THE BEST. He is so communicative and patient with my puppy. He gives her so much exercise and cuddles and leaves the house tidy. My mind is always at ease when he’s over. Thank you Steve!!”
18. Taylor-Laine F.
“So glad Taylor spent the winter holidays with my two dogs! She left my home clean, always kept me updated, and handled things well when they didn’t go to plan. I’d highly recommend booking Taylor!”

“Danielle was kind, responsive, and responsible! She took good care of our two goofy pups at our home, sent pics, was very communicative- would definitely book again!”
