1. Jennifer V.

“Jennifer was awesome, our Airedale just loved her and she helped socialize the stray cat that has adopted us. We felt completely at ease knowing Jennifer was here with our babies.”


2. Allyanna O.

“Allyanna was truly amazing! She not only took amazing care of my 3 kitties but also my home. She left my house in beautiful condition and I would gladly trust her again with my cats again!! I am extremely lucky to have had her in my home while I was away!!”


3. Anastasia B.

“Anastasia was so flexible. We needed to leave much earlier than expected and she showed up early at a moment’s notice. As always, our dogs love her. Thanks.”


4. August S.

“August was a wonderful caregiver to our 2 mid-sized labrador mix dogs, one 12yrs, one 6yrs. August slept in our home during our family's wk long vacation. They provided several walks a day, fed, medicated and supported a relaxing, consistent environment for our beloved pups. Our older dog required medical support while in Augusts' care. August maintained conversation, with health updates with our veterinarian and myself which allowed me peace of mind while we were traveling. August was able to set up and manage playdates and excursions with our friends for our 2 pups. August left our home and our pups in perfect shape and I was very grateful for their presence. I highly recommend August and will absolutely use them again.”


5. Tommy V.

“Our dog seems happy and well cared for and the house is clean and very well looked after. Tommy even cleaned the things he used and left the house looking very clean! We would love to use him again!”


6. Rachel L.

“Rachel was fantastic with my two puppies she came on very short notice. I would not hesitate to use her again. Seamless would be a great description of her service.”


7. Timothy W.

“We were so happy with Timothy’s communication while watching our pup and he was extremely flexible when our plans changed last minute and we had to stay another night. We look forward to having Timothy back in the future!”


8. John R.
“They say that dog is man’s best friend, but most of these people are liars. Or at least, they are terrible friends. When their house is on fire, most people would rather rescue their precious keepsakes or crying baby than the companion that’s been there through everything. But that’s not John. I have the utmost confidence that John will treat your dog with the utmost protectiveness like those mothers who can lift cars when their kids are trapped inside. Not that his house has ever been on fire or anything. They have at least four exits, an extinguisher, and never light candles even though they have them.”


9. Jacob M.
“Jacob was a pit sitter for our dog Myth many times. Myth is a friendly chocolate lab, who was about 3 years old when Jacob looked after him. Myth got all the attention he needed! We felt very good leaving Myth in Jacob's care from regular feedings, walks, and playtime. We also appreciated Jacob's attention to other details (like taking out our garbage on garbage day!), and was very easy to communicate with. We recommend him highly.”


10. Cassandra D.

“Cassandra was an excellent sitter. My two babies were well taken care of and happy. She sent us updates, pictures and videos. In the video, you can tell how much my babies felt comfortable and well cared for!!”


11. James M.
“James is an amazing and responsible person! Whenever i need a pet sitter for my dog, Max, he is always my first call. I know I can rely on him to care for my dog with the same love that I do!”


12. Ashleigh M.

“Ashleigh was an amazing pet sitter! I can't say enough good things about Ashleigh! She stepped in last minute to watch my cat and dog over the Thanksgiving holiday, and I’m so glad she did. From the start, she was incredibly communicative and prompt, and both of my pets took to her right away when she came for the meet-and-greet. I could tell they were in great hands immediately. I received daily updates and pictures throughout my trip, which really put me at ease. It was clear she was keeping them both happy and entertained, and I’m so grateful for that! When I returned, she had gone above and beyond—not only was everything in my home tidy, but she also left a sweet note about her time with my pets. My dog is a bit temperamental (she’s a chow mix), and this was my first time leaving her with someone who wasn’t family, so I was a little nervous. But Ashleigh handled it like a pro! She seemed to really connect with both my pets, and I could tell they had a great time with her. I was hesitant to use Rover at first since my pets mean the world to me, but after this experience, I feel so much more confident. I will absolutely be booking Ashleigh again in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone. She’s a true animal lover, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. 10/10!”


13. Aaron F.
“Aaron is one of the most kind, gentle souls I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for over 22 years, and I can confidently say there are few in this world I trust more than him. Every animal I’ve ever seen him with, including my own dog, is both safe and loved in his presence. I never let anyone other than my mother watch my dog, but if I needed to, I’d hand her to him without a second thought. He’s trustworthy and dependable in ways most could never achieve. I couldn’t possibly recommend him more to care for anyone’s pets. He is a diamond in the rough, and your pets will always be in great hands.”


14. Olivianne M.
About: I’ve been around all sorts of dogs my whole life, from growing up with dogs, to now owning my own little guy, and pet sitting for friends and family. I also worked in a doggie daycare center for a little while. I’ve always loved animals and i love working with them! I am currently working a seasonal job so I will have lots of time and flexibility to spend time with my furry friends! Outside of work I am a volunteer firefighter and certified EMT. I have experience with dogs large and small, old and young and I am quick to think on my feet! I always take the upmost of caution when dealing with all animals because I know they are family!


15. Audrey S.

“Audrey was very flexible and sent updates of how Keiko was doing while she stayed with her. Very kind and understanding!”




16. Ralph C.

“Ralph was wonderful and took great care of our new laser dog, Zoey. He shared updates everyday while we were on vacation as well as assisted with watering our plants throughout the house! Ralph shared daily photos and updates about his time watching Zoey! We highly recommend Ralph and will plan to work with in the future!”


17. Amanda C.

“Amanda was amazing and I appreciate her for being able to accommodate us on a short notice. She inquired about my 2 kids. She was so nice and spent quality time with them. She took them on wonderful walks and sent pics. I couldn’t recommend her more. Thank you!”


18. Kenny I.
“I highly recommend Kenny! He was so loving and attentive towards my dog, Benson. I get nervous leaving my dog with just anyone and Kenny was amazing. He kept me updated and my dog was always safe and happy. Every time Kenny has watched and walked Benson, he couldn’t wait to run up to Kenny’s door, wagging his tail and ready to give kisses! 10/10!!!”


19. Rory K.
“We hired Rory K. 5 years ago. We had 2 pets at the time, one is special needs. She has been responsible and trustworthy. Rory makes sure our special needs pet is getting his medicine when he needs it and takes him for walks several times . I highly recommend her services. She responds quickly to my concerns while I am out of town. My babies love her.”
