1. Danielle C.

“Danielle was amazing at loving on our pets, keeping to their routines, and sending us updates. We look forward to using her again and again as a sitter for our fur babies!”


2. Jordan B.

“Jordan went above and beyond as a dogsitter at our house! She was so great with communication, we did not have to worry about anything. We returned to our house even cleaner than how we left it. I would recommend Jordan to anyone, and I definitely hope she is available next time we need a sitter!!”


3. Zach D.

“Zach was a new sitter to our family and I am so glad we met him through Rover! He took the absolute best care of our dog and cats, and our house, while we were away for a few days. It was so nice knowing our furry family members were in great hands. He definitely treated them like his own and I have a feeling they're going to miss him now that we're home! We can't wait to have Zach back again!”


4. Mary B.

“I was nervous to leave my cat, as I have never left her with a non-family member before, but Mary was wonderful! Mary came by before the trip and was great with my cat. She updated me during the trip, and when I returned, my cat seemed very relaxed and content. I will definetely be booking again!”




5. Dawn "Star" C.

“Dawn Star took wonderful care of my two dogs while my family and I were out of town for a long weekend. I came back home to happy dogs and a well cared for home. This was my first experience with a house sitter and found my dogs to be much more relaxed at the end of the stay compared to when they board at a facility. One of my dogs is very high energy, and the other is more reserved. Dawn Star handled their particular dynamics without issues. She also paid attention to my care/ instruction sheet and followed it to a T. I’m very happy with this experience and would hire Dawn Star again.”


6. Dakota W.

“Dakota, this review is written also as my gratitude. Thank you again for all your time and attention to my dogs for such a very long time (12 days!). They were content and happy when I got back. And the house was spotless! (You didn’t have to clean up!) I felt safe leaving them with you and deeply appreciated your daily updates and photos. I hope you and Spam would be willing to help us out again in the future 😊!!”


7. Amanda W.

“Amanda was a wonderful sitter for our doodle Henry. He loved having her and she really took great care of him. He had walks and playtime and she sent frequent pictures showing us how much fun Henry was having. I was completely at ease knowing she was at our house with him. She also left the house impeccable. We highly recommend her!!!”


8. Tashi M.

“Tashi was great with our pack of 4 dogs and 3 cats. She stayed with them and took great care of them. We would love for her to take care of them again.”


9. Kaylynn P.
“Kaylynn was wonderful! Our dog doesn’t love new environments, so she stayed with him at our house. It was obvious from the minute that she walked through the door how much she loves dogs and how much Sancho would love her. We had zero concerns leaving him in her care and will absolutely book again!”


10. Nathan M.

“Nathan was great! He house sat our mini Aussie for a weekend while we were out of state and went on multiple walks and was great with him! Highly recommend if you have a high energy dog!”


11. Andrew M.

“Andrew took great care of our dog and our home. He kept us updated on how she was doing and spoiled her with lots of walks!”


12. Jonathan S.

“Jack did a great job house sitting our dogs as always! He was able to accommodate us with a last minute request and we appreciate his flexibility. We definitely recommend Jack to take great care of your fur babies.”


13. Sarah A.

“Sarah was absolutely amazing. She took such great care of our two basset hounds while we were away, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent tons of photos every single day, which made us feel so connected and reassured the whole time we were gone. Even though it rained the entire week, she still made sure they got plenty of walks and exercise. There was even a tornado warning during the week, and she made sure the dogs were safe and cared for through it all. Our boys can be super stubborn, but she handled them with such confidence and care that they actually listened and followed her lead. That’s not easy with bassets. She gave them so much attention and love, and it was clear how much effort she put into making sure they were happy and comfortable. Our dogs love being outside, and she made sure they had plenty of time to enjoy the fresh air during the day, even with the unpredictable weather. She was also incredibly attentive to our home and took great care of our flowers and plants on the patio. She paid so much attention to detail in every aspect of her stay. We came home to two relaxed, happy dogs and a house that looked great. Sarah went above and beyond in every single way and we are so grateful. She exceeded all of our expectations and sets the standard for what a polite, respectful, professional, and compassionate pet sitter should be. Truly one of the best sitters we’ve ever had.”


14. Brielle E.

“Brielle was so great with Mellie. This was my first time leaving my dog since I got her 6 months ago and I couldn’t imagine a better person for her to be with. Brielle is very sweet and kind. She was attentive, patient, and loving towards Mellie. She sent me updates and pictures the whole time, too! I would absolutely recommend her to watch anyone’s fur-baby.”


15. Madison & Ryan N.

“Madison and Ryan were so great with my two pups! They sent plenty of updates and pictures which is always appreciated. One of my pups ended up getting sick on the last day from an autoimmune condition and they were super attentive and caught onto the symptoms immediately. They even offered to stay later than planned to keep an eye on him until we got home. 10/10 recommend and will book again!”


16. Michelle B.

“Michelle stayed with my cats and dog for a night. She was great!”


17. Kala C.

“Kala did a fantastic job housesitting our three pets simultaneously. Two of our pets had medicine routines that Kala was able to follow without issue and thanks to her strength training background she had no issue carrying our Frenchy down the stairs on a regular basis. She was kind, sweet, full of common sense and responsible. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her help us again in the future. Book with confidence!”


18. Nicole B.

“We loved her and so did our dogs!”




19. Kyle & Meagan M.
“Our boys got lots of love and lots of attention! I didn’t worry about them at all and bet the dogs can’t wait for next time Kyle and Meagan watch them :)”


20. Danielle B.

“Danielle did a great job taking care of our pup. She was on time for meets and clearly communicated her schedule and needs to ensure they met our expectations. She also sent lots of photos and videos of our dog while we were away. Would definitely book her again!”
