“Claire was a wonderful match for our 12 yr old boston terrier. She took the time to meet our pup prior to watching him and was thorough with her questions. Claire provided updates of our fur baby throughout the day and sent us pictures. Having that communication was greatly appreciated and made us feel more at ease that our pup was in good hands. We will absolutely book Claire again in the future!”

We highly recommend Rebecca and will most definitely use her again!”

“Katharine went ABOVE and BEYOND boarding our 3 dogs in our home for 5 days. She sent us daily photo updates with confirmation of their medications being given, brought in our packages and bins, and kept our home incredibly clean despite our messy dogs. We couldn't be happier with her services and would highly recommend her to anyone considering having a sitter stay in their home and will definitely use her again in the future!”

11. Alison W.
“Alanis is a compassionate & dedicated pet person. I have always trusted her with my animals. She has taken care of my dogs and cats for years and they are happy to see her come back! Her natural connection & huge heart for animals makes her a perfect person to work with any animal!”


12. Megan K.

“Megan was friendly, professional and punctual. She stayed in contact while I was away (which helped to work through some unforseen issues) and sent pictures and videos of my cat while she house sitted. She also seems to be some kind of cat whisperer since my cat is not friendly with many people but seemed to take to her immediately. She also helped me navigate the Rover site for booking what I wanted and planned ahead to avoid letting my cat out into a storm (I was out of town and unaware of the situation). I would highly recommend Megan for your pet sitting needs.”


13. Liesa B.


“Liesa kept me updated the entire time she watched Leo and didn’t mind going the extra mile. Definitely will have her watch him again next time I go out of town!”


14. Daniela D.

“Daniela was great! Very attentive and did a great job taking care of Banana!”


15. Janice C.

“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”


16. Lisa V.

“Lisa was phenomenal. She not only eased my anxiety while away, but our dogs were also kept calm and happy in her care. Lisa went above and beyond with her daily updates that included photos and/or videos of our fur babies. She stayed in our home and also took good care of that, too! Lisa was professional, kind, and honest. I absolutely look forward to working with her again and would recommend her to anyone in search of a reliable, compassionate dog sitter.”


17. Tyler D.
“Tyler pet sit for me for a long weekend. She was very responsible and was great with the pets (a dog, two cats and a bird).”


18. Kathleen F.

“Kathleen was very nice and attentive when taking care of my pup, maintained pups schedule, & provided updates every day. Very appreciative that she could watch her on such short notice.”


19. Michael C.

“Our dogs LOVED staying with Michael. He has a pack of his own that welcomed our two dogs in quickly and seamlessly. He takes pet safety very seriously and handled introductions slowly and with great attention to our dogs. I know they were spoiled and loved like his own while there! They had a space just for themselves while still being able to run and play with his dogs. Michael sent us photos and updates regularly and whenever we asked, was extremely professional and communicative in booking, and worked with our schedule easily.”


20. Stephany S.
