It was so nice to not have to worry about our cats when we were gone - Gretchen had it all under control, even with one of them needing medication. And the house looked even better than when we left it!

Carolyn treated my dog so well! She followed my notes to a T and ensured that she got lots of exercise and stimulation. She also provided frequent updates and photos. I can tell she cares deeply about animals, and I’m grateful she was able to watch my girl while I was out of town. I will definitely keep her in mind for future pet sitting needs!

Taylor was fantastic! She did a great job checking in with me and letting me know how things were going. My dog gets pretty sad when I’m gone but she did everything she could to make sure she was comfortable and well taken care of. Also my house was so clean when I got home, she’s definitely a great sitter to consider watching your dog.

Olivia is a gem. She stepped in to pinch-hit after a non-Rover sitter had to leave early, and dealt with a messy house (teen sitter left quite a disaster in his wake!), untended critters, an uncertain ETA, and an unexpected medical situation with grace and care. 10 out of 10. Would recommend. Definitely hitting her up the next time I have to be away.

We couldn’t be happier with the care our 8-month-old puppy received! From the very beginning, Carolina was professional, kind, and incredibly attentive to our pup’s needs. They took the time to learn about our puppy’s routine, preferences, and quirks, making sure she felt comfortable and well cared for while we were away. Communication was outstanding—we received regular updates, photos, and even little videos about our pup’s day, which gave us such peace of mind. Carolina was engaging with her, providing plenty of playtime, cuddles, and structured care. We came home to a happy, well-exercised, and relaxed puppy, which speaks volumes about the level of care she received. We would absolutely trust Carolina again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a responsible and loving dog sitter. Thank you so much!

We didn't know Julie beforehand except for doing a brief meet-and-greet, but she stayed at our house with our small dog for a long weekend when we were traveling, and did a great job. I always worry about my little pup who is very shy and attached to my wife and me, and has a hard time warming up to other people. She was shy and probably confused at first, since this was only the second time we left her for the weekend, but she clearly warmed up to Julie after the first day. Julie was great about promptly responding to our messages asking how things were going, and sending pictures and videos. She kept our house very clean and even took out the trash and washed our bedding before we got home. I would definitely hire her again!

Olivia was fabulous! This was the first time we went through this app to have someone watch our dogs and I was nervous to be honest but Olivia eased all of my anxiety. She did frequent check ins on how the dogs were doing, when it was a hot day she asked about doing a shorter walk so the dogs didn’t get too hot and our fur babies absolutely loved her! If your dogs mean the world to you, Olivia is a great person to care for them!

Emily was an amazing care taker for my dogs. They are a little extra, like most dogs are lol. And she took good care of them and all their quirks. She communicated often, sent photos and videos and walked and cuddled them like they were her own. I recommend her for the care of your fur babies and hope to have her again in my home to stay with Otis and Myla 🐶❤️

Lucy was fantastic for us. She communicated well with us before and during the stay. She seemed to follow the directions we gave her extremely well and asked questions about stuff and kept notes for herself too so she could make sure everything was followed. When we got home, the house was as clean, if not cleaner, than when we left it. We were extremely happy with her and the booking.

Cassidy was great with my Chihuahua pup. Chip requires some patience, and Cassidy did great. She also sent picture updates since we were missing Chip a lot. :) She stayed at our house, left it very clean, walked Chip daily, and gave him his allergy drops. Chip is our baby so I appreciated the attention she provided!
