“Kate was wonderful! She took excellent care of our dog and was great about keeping us updated with photos and everything we needed. Would be more than happy to trust her with our dog again!”


“This was Mitch's first stay with Ollie, and we will surely have him come again! We had a pre-visit where we went over all instructions and he arrived at our home before we left on our trip. He communicated to us thru e-mail and a photo. When we returned Ollie was happy and our home was cleaner than when we left it!! Great job, Mitch! Thank you so much....Cindy and Bill”


“Taylor is awesome. He was super communicative, kept me updated with pics and videos, and I could tell he gave my girls a ton of loving because they were so happy and calm when we returned. He kept the house nice and clean and I’ll definitely be using him all the time now!”


“Savannah was an outstanding sitter for our two dogs! She communicated well and was attentive to the needs of two high-energy Labrador retrievers. I would recommend to anyone and will book with Savannah again”


“Angie was amazing. I booked with her last minute and she was responsive from the moment I contacted her. She sent me updates twice a day as requested, always including photos and how Luna was doing. She also left my house as if she had never been there! Thank you, Angie!”


“Lan did an amazing job taking care of our dog. She stayed in our house, managed his medications and walked him regularly. Boomer is a higher needs dog and he was in great shape when we returned after a week. LAN also sent pictures regularly which was nice. I will definitely be booking her again.”



“Janelle was fantastic. Provided frequent updates and pictures, was a great communicator, and gave our puppies so much love. You can tell she really loves dogs. We would love to have Janelle back some time!”


“Angie was absolutely amazing with our pup! We have never had an overnight sitter at our house, so we were a bit nervous about finding someone we trusted. From the very moment we met her, we knew she was someone trustworthy, kind, and perfect for the job. Our pup absolutely loved her! She sent great updates, and we could tell our little guy was having a great time. It’s SO nice to not have to worry when you’re traveling. We would absolutely recommend booking her, and will be recommending her to all of our local friends! :)”


“Jillian is awesome, I would highly recommend her. My dogs love her, and she took great care of them while I was away. I received plenty of photos of my dogs, receiving a few every day. She was an amazing house guest. My house was spotless when I came back, and she even washed my sheets! I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Jillian!!!!!!!”


“This is our second time having Nana house sit with our dog. Nana is all I could ask for in a dog and house sitter. She’s truly an amazing person all around. The pups love her and it is evident by the photos and videos she shares with us while we are away! I know the dogs and the house are in good hands when Nana is there. I wouldn’t want anyone else to look after my dog child. Thank you so much! You will likely see Tyson and Charlie again in the future! 🩷”


“We were so lucky to find Melina last minute over the holiday weekend to care for our cat, Billi! She went above and beyond, making sure Billi was not only well-fed and cared for but also given plenty of attention and love. Melina sent regular updates with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Billi, who can sometimes be a bit shy, took to her right away, which says everything about her kind and gentle nature. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend Melina to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful cat sitter. Thank you so much, Melina!”


“Exceptional Care from Dustin – Highly Recommend! We recently had a late-night emergency, and Dustin went above and beyond to help us. I reached out to him around 10 PM, and to our surprise and relief, he arrived by 11 PM without hesitation. He stayed through the night and into the following day, ensuring everything was handled with the utmost care. Dustin did a phenomenal job. Our home was well taken care of, and most importantly, our dog was incredibly happy and comfortable with him. It’s clear that Dustin has a true gift when it comes to animals — our pup absolutely adores him. We were lucky to find Dustin again on Rover, as we’ve used his services in the past for things like flight nannying, dog walks, and housesitting, but had lost his contact information. Dustin is the owner of Pawpe Diem and is now using Rover to grow his business — and I have no doubt he’ll thrive. He is professional, courteous, trustworthy, and genuinely kind. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets and home with the same love and respect you would, Dustin is your person. I cannot recommend him highly enough.”


“Julia was amazing and went above expectations. She took detailed notes of care instructions and followed them closely. She also had great communication along the way. Where other sitters have fallen short, she went above and beyond. At the end of our planned trip, our flight was cancelled and thankfuly Julia was able to make accomidations and save us by staying until we couls return. We will definitely be booking her again and trust her with our dogs and house.”


“Destiny was absolutely incredible! She went above and beyond to care for my dogs and my house. We have 3 dogs, one who is a senior, and Destiny not only attended to their needs, but really bonded with all of them. It was our first time leaving the dogs with someone and I was initially nervous, but before we had even arrived at our destination I had received an update including pictures. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip and come home to happy and tired dogs. I can’t recommend Destiny enough!!!”


“We had an excellent experience with Edmond! He took care of our three dogs and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable while we were away. He sent regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear our pups were in great hands — they looked relaxed, well-cared for, and loved. We truly appreciated his professionalism, reliability, and kindness. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”


“Natali took amazing care of my dog while I was away. Her communication was excellent. She sent me pictures and detailed updates on how my dog was doing. When I came home my dog was happy and clearly well cared for. She took her on lots of walks even with it being a rainy week. Natali did an incredible job and I will definitely book again with her in the future!”
