1. Liz P.

“Liz is the best! She kept me updated, she was very informative, and I could tell my dog absolutely adored her! She went above and beyond just walking my dog. I can tell she really loves animals. I have used her multiple times, and would definitely recommend her to anyone that really wants someone that cares for their dog as if they were her own.”


2. Erin W.

“Erin is such a reliable and trustworthy person! Oatmeal always got lots of attention from her and quality walks. I never had to worry about my dog when I knew Erin would be coming by to walk her. I’m so happy with all that Erin did for Oatmeal!”


3. David D.

“Hi I’m Robyn. I known David for a while now. He has walked two dogs a lot . He really does love the pups . He could be a wonderful person for this job.”


4. Migle M.

“Migle is awesome!! Huck immediately loved her from their first meeting. Sent photos of huck before, during, and after the walk which was very much appreciated. Will be booking again!”




5. Daphne C.

“Daphne is communicative, prompt, kind, and loves our dog as much as we do. She leaves detailed notes and takes lots of pictures, too. I absolutely recommend booking with her!”


6. Brianne F.

“I’m so grateful to have found Brianne. My dog is initially very shy and Brianne was so considerate that she allotted extra time past the scheduled walk to ensure my dog was comfortable. The next time she saw Brianne she was immediately excited and affectionate, unusual behavior for her. It’s clear that Brianne takes extra care beyond being communicative and reliable.”


7. Elizabeth A.

“Elizabeth has sat with 3 dogs for us whenever we went out of town for the past 5 plus years.. She stays in our house and feeds and walks them. She also sends us pix of her "hanging out" with them watching TV together on the couch while we're gone.. My Lady lived to be 16 so she was on special meds and diets which Elizabeth handled well and willingly. We've always had at least 2 dogs at a time and had 3 for a brief time. All the dogs love her. When she comes to the door they get so excited to see her and wag and jump all over the place. We highly recommend her!”


8. Rosie S.
“Rosie was raised in a family with several pets, including cats, dogs, and a fish. She enjoyed playing with them and taking care of their needs, but especially respecting them in a responsible way. As Rosie's mom, I can attest to her good nature with animals and the joy she finds in being around pets. Last year, she helped me sit for my cat when I was on vacation. It was a relief to have left my dear cat with someone who truly knew how to lovingly take care of her. I definitely recommend her as a dog sitter.”


9. Elena M.

“Very nice and flexible with hours. Highly suggest:)”


10. Niyah L.
“Niyah treats every pet as if they were their own. They’re responsible, attentive, and always go the extra mile to ensure pets feel comfortable and loved!”


11. Ryan O.

“My dog, Boscoe Butterfly, is a lot. He is 85 pounds and likes to lick people’s faces. Ryan is wonderful with the butterfly. I have had the chance to get to know Ryan as a human being, and that guy is wonderful too.”


12. Katrina S.
“My cat means the world to me, and for that reason I have a rigorous standard for who I trust with his care. Katrina is a dream come true!! When I travel, Katrina takes thorough care of Ezra. I could tell by the videos she sent that he felt really happy and safe. I always rest agreed he is in good hands!”


13. Hanna S.
“Hanna watched my cats every time I was away and took great care of them. She gave them food, water, and love, and made sure to send me pictures and updates while I was gone. Highly recommend.”


14. Erik F.
“Erik took great care of my German Shepard Leelo. She loves to run and play ball and he did so well with her. I would highly recommend him to watch your pet.”




15. Amanda M.


“Amanda had been a huge part of helping Dodger to grow into the happiest and best behaved pup ever! She is caring and always takes the time to send me details of her time with Dodger. Highly recommend Amanda!”


16. Joel J.
“Joel is an experienced and reliable dog sitter. Though new to Rover, he has been caring for my two Beagles over the past 5 years. He is incredibly respectful of our needs (dogs too!). He is open to doing drop ins or long stays. He goes above and beyond and even picks up my mail and checks my plants. When you travel a lot like I do, having a reliable trustworthy person like Joel who can watch the dogs is a game changer.”


17. Megan D.
“Megan is great and is always available when I request to book at the last minute. She communicates well, takes pics, and my dog seems to love her”


18. Rachel H.

“She was fantastic! Tired out pup out on long walks— will definitely be requesting her services again!”


19. Alexandra H.
“Alexandra has years of experience providing excellent care for her own dogs & cats, as well as others' pets. She is communicative, timely, clean, well-trusted, and very warm & friendly toward all furry animals! She is very patient with my shy cats while also enjoying lots of energetic playtime with a mutual friend's dog. I highly recommend Alexandra as a petsitter!”
