1. Ginger T.
“Ginger is the best dog sitter we have ever used! Even before arriving, she texted us to let us know that she would be at our rental house an hour before requested to get familiar with our dogs. We have two young rescue dogs who love to play and can be rambunctious and Ginger was loving and gentle with them. She sent pictures each day and also texted to let us know how they were doing. Ginger followed every directive we left and went above and beyond by washing their dishes and toys each day. In addition to taking excellent care of the house and the dogs, Ginger also became our travel agent during our stay and gave us fabulous suggestions on places to visit from Asheville to Cades Cove. One day, we were a little late getting back because we went to one of her suggested sites and I texted her to apologize but Ginger immediately texted me back and said not to worry but to enjoy ourselves. She is a true professional and an incredibly caring person. When we return, Ginger is the only person I trust to watch my fur babies.”
2. Susan E.
“Susan was amazing! This was the first time leaving our dogs with someone so we were of course nervous but she was great with them. She sent daily updates and pictures and communicated well with us. She kept the house clean and even did some things that weren’t expected from her like washing the sheets on the bed! The dogs were both happy and well taken care of when we returned. I would definitely recommend Susan!”
3. Katherine G.
“I would happily recommend Kate to anyone looking for a house sitter for their fur babies!! She takes amazing care of our two older cats and high energy dog! We get several updates every day which I really appreciate. Not only that but she takes great care of our home - she's very respectful and thoughtful. Highly recommend!!!”

“Madeline took great care of both Charlotte and my home!”
5. Rebecca F.
“Rebecca was Great! She handled any problem by making us aware, and fixing it. Our dog had never had to share the house with anyone without us being there before. To address that Rebecca came over a couple of times before our departure; allowing the dog to get comfortable with her. The day we left Lena (the dog) decided to teach everyone who was "boss" and refused to get out of Rebecca's car after a walk. After a bit Lena gave in and decided Rebecca was going to be great to hang around with. Rebecca sent pictures and notes every day to reassure us things were going well. Anytime we will be out of the country, or in a position not allowing pets Rebecca is our GO TO person.”
6. Charlie S.
“Charlie stayed at our home for a long weekend and took care of our dog and cat. The house and our pets were well taken care of and we would definitely hire Charlie again!”
7. Caroline T.
“Caroline is a very compassionate and responsible pet owner and sitter! Caroline has always been a huge help to me in taking care of my cats while I'm away, and I always feel comforted knowing they're in the best of hands.”
8. Shakara D.
“Shakara was amazing. She cared for a dog like she was her own, giving lots of love and snuggles. She sent us daily updates and photos and was just kind and lovely to work with. We are so grateful we found her!”
9. Karen G.
“Karen was beyond amazing with my dog. Stayed at my house and made sure she had all her daily meds and plenty of potty breaks. Took great care of her! Will for sure book again!”
10. Renee C.
“Renee was the absolute sweetest and so so caring and loving towards our pups. We felt so at ease and reassured having her there to tend to our dogs while we were away. She was very communicative and responsive and left plenty of updates and pictures so we could keep up to date while gone. I would definitely have Renee help us out again in the future. She went above and beyond to care for not only our two dogs, but also to take care of our space (vacuuming, watering plants, and stripping the bed at the end of her visit). You can truly tell how much she loves and cares for animals, and that’s the exact kind of person you want taking care of your pets while away.”
11. Sophie C.
“Sophie & Ryan are wonderful dog/house sitters. Our house and pup are always very clean when we get back home. They take Gonzo on little field trips and I never have to worry about him because they take great care of him. They even printed out pics of Gonzo during their adventures. Thank you both very much!”
12. Julie M.
“Julie was so great! She sent lots of pictures during the stay. Made me feel comfortable leaving my pups. I will absolutely be booking her again!”
13. Kari M.
“This is the best pet sitter ever!!! Not only is she so sweet to the fur babies, she treats them just like they are her own!! 10/10 recommend!!!”
14. Anna W.
“Anna has vast experience with all different kinds of animals starting from a very young age. Growing up with a parent who was not only a vet tech, but animal control officer/certified cruelty investigator allowed Anna a vast amount of experience caring for dogs, cats, ferrets and other assorted creatures. She volunteered for the Little Rock animal village as well as the Humane Society of Pulaski Co. In Arkansas in her youth and learned how to care for cats and dogs of all sizes and ages. She's always had a love of creatures big and small of any variety!!”
15. Dustin T.
“Dustin is an animal lover through and through! He is kind, compassionate and loves taking care of his pets as well as those of his loved ones. He is a hard worker who will go above and beyond to make sure your pet has all their needs met while you're not available to be there!”
16. Shane K.
“Shane did an amazing job. He’s conscientious, caring and really focuses on doing right by his clients. Our dog loved him! Shane kept us updated with regular texts and photos and I felt very secure and confident leaving him at our house. He not only took great care of our baby but he took great care of the house, which is wonderful. We will definitely be booking with him again!”
17. Autumn C.
“Autumn did a great job house sitting and caring for our three dogs for a week. Izzy, Roxi and Riley are very sweet but require care and attention. Izzy is the most high maintenance, she is a 5 year old Brussels Griffon and needs medication 7 times a day. Roxi is our 12yr old Min Schnauzer and has some special dietary needs and Riley is our two year old Lab with a lot of energy. Autumn took care of all of their needs and contacted me if there were any issues to discuss. She followed all of the advice we gave her on managing the dogs. In addition the home was in good order when we returned. I can recommend Autumn for house sitting and dog sitting for all types of dogs.”
18. Ashley F.
“This was our first time using Rover and someone that we don’t know, and Ashley was absolutely amazing. She came over ahead of time to meet Maddox, walked him with us, asked great questions and really put us at ease. Ashley is very easy to talk to and a great communicator as well. She was extremely flexible and patient (as I added some last second changes to his routine). During the weekend, Ashley sent us multiple videos and written updates. This put us at ease because we knew our dog was in great care! Besides the pet care, Ashley also cleaned, fixed our squeaky door, and more. Her dog came over as well (Ashley asked before bringing her over), and her dog and ours got along great. We will hire Ashley again, without any hesitation!”
19. KayLynn A.
“KayLynn is the first we ask to help out with my cattle dog/Aussie mix. She is reliable, caring and kind, and loves on my sweet baby while I’m gone. I’m so glad I can trust her to take care of him- she has made my life easier time and time again. SO grateful!! Not to mention my doggie loves her- and he doesn’t love others easily.”
20. Analisa D.
“Barbara was great with the dogs. I would definitely recommend her.”
