1. David D.
“David was great with my furry girl, and that says a lot because she doesn't warm up to anyone too quickly! She has a lot of anxiety and she is not very well socialized, but she warmed up to him after like one day. He's definitely a dog whisperer! She seemed to be at peace with him, and he sent me pictures from ever visit which definitely put me at ease too! He's great, and I will be using him again!”
2. Anne Y.
“It was such a relief to have a trustworthy Catsitter again! Anne enabled me to take a break so I could take care of my dad without worrying about the cats. She was very communicative and understanding of my crazy stressed circumstances. It was my first experience with Rover and a very good one. 😀”
3. Bradley M.
“Originally I had somebody else booked. They cancelled the morning visit on me. Our dog was left hungry and more than likely had a full bladder. Bradley to the rescue! I explained the situation and Bradley dropped everything to take care of our furry family member. It's apparent his love for animals is genuine. All communications were smooth and pleasant. Bradley has earned our trust and we'll continue to use his services! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”
4. Joana B.
“Joanna has been an amazing addition to our lil family knowing we can leave and our babies will be taken care of just as we would treat them. It’s been nice while on vacation not worrying about our babies.”
5. Deborah R.
“This was the first time we have ever used a service for our fur babies was a little nervous, but our babies are older and needed the extra TLC. They did a great job they were always on time! They sent pictures too.. We have cameras in the house so we could watch the house and to keep my babies safe. babies were safe! Thank you Deb and Sam for great service.”

7. Brittany H.
“Brittany is great! She met my dog ChiChi before watching her for a few days. Brittany was flexible and recorded ChiChi’s events and sent photos. I would be willing to use her every time I need a sitter!”
8. Leesa H.
“We booked Leesa last minute to check in on our dogs so that we could go away for an overnight trip. We haven’t used a sitter outside of our family in a long time, but we’re happy to say that our boys have a new friend! We will definitely be booking Leesa for future trips!”
9. Minty B.
“Minty was easy to communicate with and was able to watch our pup, Drexel, last minute which I appreciate so much! She took wonderful care of him and even brought in a package that had been delivered while we were gone. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to watch their fur baby!”
10. Haley H.
“Haley cared for my cat Pumpkin while I was away for a weekend. She was great with her - playing and cuddling and sending updates. I will happily ask Haley to come again :)”
11. Kristi I.
“This was our first time using Rover and Kristi was awesome! She came to let our dog out and feed her while we were away for the day. And my cat who never comes out when someone new is in the house actually came downstairs and hung out with her! I'm still so amazed! Kristi even cleaned the food container for us! She went way above and beyond for us! Will definitely use her again!”
12. Emily H.
“Great communication and thorough updates. Showed up when she said and stayed the entire time. Would fully trust her with my puppy again anytime and recommend her to any friends.”
13. Britany R.
“Britany was an amazing pet sitter. She came to our home twice a day for over a week. We have three kittens all under 1 year so there were some special instructions about feeding and keeping them apart at times. Britany went above and beyond to make sure all our cats had the care and attention they needed while we were gone. She gave detailed updates as well as included numerous photos after each scheduled visit. Once you meet her you know she has the biggest heart! We need to go out of town soon and plan to book Britany again!”
14. Alice D.
“Alice took great care of my cat while I was away! She was very communicative and professional. Thanks Alice!”
15. Michael C.
“Michael was terrific! The dogs settled in with him, and he made the extra effort to visit them before we left, so that they knew him. He’s got an excellent understanding of dogs. I highly recommend him!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 6 and I’m great with all sizes, breeds and ages as I’ve helped multiple dogs give birth and I’ve also taken care of geriatric dogs. I have volunteered at Our Farm Sanctuary and I foster for The Rescue Haven My life has always been surrounded by dogs, I love my animals more than anything. The first thing I do when I wake up is take care of the dogs, take them on a walk and then give them their breakfast and enrichment bowls/mats. I base my daily routine off my pets! I have fenced in yard and three fixed golden retrievers that are sweethearts. If you use a crate, I do ask that you provide that as I only have 2 of my own and they are occupied by my two youngest dogs. I have to crate Tucker and Dixie because they will eat anything when they’re bored, INCLUDING a wall 🤣 the crate will be cleaned and sanitized before pickup. I also ask that you provide your own food, that way there’s no upset bellies! I have plenty of natural treats if you’re okay with your dog having them
17. Sierra H.
“I am so pleased with the care that Sierra gave my two German Shepherd Dogs. She didn't great job...informed me if some training she did with them and sent pictures of the fun the "boys" had. Thanks to Sierra. I will be using her services again very soon.”
18. Keira C.
“Keira is terrific with our dogs. She keeps them active with daily walks, play-time and makes sure their care is always a priority. Her calm and gentle nature makes them feel so comfortable and both family dogs are always so happy when she is around. Watching Keira with her dog, Mila, makes it obvious to everyone just how amazing and passionate she is about animals.”
19. Karoline H.
“Karoline is a mature and responsible young lady who loves animals (and people)! Always prompt, she shows up with a warm smile on her face and a cool demeanor. I’m never worried about the health and well-being of my dog when he’s in her hands. I would highly recommend her to take care of your four-legged family member anytime.”
20. Angie W.
“Angie is a very lovely person and she is very easy to work with! Flexible and responsible I would recommend her to pet sit anyone.”
