Lei is a fantastic pet sitter. She cared for my 3 year old golden retriever in my home while I was on vacation for a week and I felt very confident in all the care, attention, and love she gave to my pup while I was away. She kept me informed with many pictures and updates each day which I really appreciated. She paid great attention and followed all care instructions carefully. I enjoyed my vacation more knowing my pup was happy and in such good hands. We will use her again for sure and cannot recommend her enough!

Renee house sat our pitty mix for 11 days. She was very communicative during the whole period. She was also very respectful of our home. We came home to a very happy dog and a clean house! We definitely would book Renee's time again on our next trip.

I recently booked Juan to stay at my place while traveling and he did a great job. He provided me with daily updates about the walks, potty times, and feeding (since my dog is a little picky eater). He definitely took care of my dog as if he was his. My place was left cleaned and organized. I will add Juan as my primary in house dog sitter. Highly recommended. Thank you Juan!

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats in my house my whole life. I also have 3 years of professional experience dog and cat sitting, I love all animals and enjoy taking care of them. I am a graduate student at Marymount University. My weekends are usually free and my class schedule is light and somewhat online so I’m very flexible with walks and check-ins. I am well experienced with all kinds of dogs and can handle almost all situations. I can walk, feed, play, and crate your dog if need be.

He kept me up to date with everything they were doing from her behavior, her day-to-day routine, etc.! He was extremely charismatic and went the extra mile for my girl. I will definitely be booking with him again when I need services!

We hired Lisa for a last-minute trip to visit family, and she was a fantastic housesitter. From the start, she put us at ease and we felt confident our two cats would be well cared for. She was super communicative, sent frequent photo updates, and was flexible with our changing plans. When it looked like our dog care might fall through, she was even willing to step in and help with her too. Lisa went above and beyond - she assured us she’d check in on the cats again if anything came up with our travels, and we came home to an impeccably clean house. She even washed the sheets, which made coming home that much better. We’ll definitely be hiring her again!

About: I've been around pets my entire life. I grew up with at least two dogs in the household at all times and have learned to care for them as puppies until it was their time to go. I am often asked to care for family and friends' animals I work remote full time, so my availability is open. I can be available on short notice for anything from a simple walk around the neighborhood to overnight care. Like humans, pets have their personalities, and I will be sure to care for them. If they are energetic and love to play, so am I. If they are in their senior years, I will tend to their needs and give them what they need and deserve.

The Best! Wayne and Jordan were amazing with my two rescue huskies while I was on vacation. The dogs are generally very cautious of strangers, and they were going through some sibling rivalry and needed to be kept apart - on separate floors of the house. Wayne and Jordan’s pet-sitting experience and patience were apparent in their daily communications and photos. It was great to see how the girls warmed up quickly! Each pup got lots of attention and exercise, and they were calm and happy when I got home. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The icing on the cake - the bedding was all washed and the house was clean when I got home. Highly Recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and they have built me into the person I am today! The best parts of my days are taking them out on adventures, and I would love to do the same for your pets. I am a responsible, fun, and adventurous pet sitter, that would give your pets a great time. While I am home from college, I walk all of my dogs multiple times throughout the day and ensure that they are cared for satisfactorily. I also enjoy taking them on hikes and other outdoor adventures. The safety and comfort of your pet’s is my number one priority while sitting/walking. I respect your space and follow all instructions given very closely. I also pay close attention to your pet’s mood and behavior. I am extremely reliable when treating your home with care and your pets with the utmost respect.

We booked Ella last min due to our previous Rover sitter canceling the night before our trip. This is the first time we booked a sitter without having met them prior, so I was a bit nervous. Ella was fantastic, the dogs loved her immediately, she was punctual and kept to their routine/schedule as closely as possible, and provided many updates throughout the week. Would book again!

Sabrina was absolutely amazing! Bella clearly loved her, and I could tell she was very well cared for while I was away. Sabrina provided detailed updates and sent plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious she took the time to get to know Bella and make her feel comfortable. Bella can be particular at times, but Sabrina handled everything wonderfully. I came home to a happy, relaxed dog, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend Sabrina to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Renee was very attentive and enthusiastic. Heidi had a park walk, a visit to Renee’s home and to an outdoor bar during her overnight stay. She was attentive to my handout and left the house spotless. I was glad we had an early meet&greet, since she was unable to come when we departed but came later.

I may regret saying this because it could make it harder to book him in the future, but I can’t say enough good things about Leo! He was punctual, communicative, flexible, and genuinely kind throughout the entire experience. He has a calm, friendly nature that immediately put both me and my dog at ease. My Ollie is still generally cautious around strangers, but with Leo it was completely different. The moment Ollie spotted him from a distance, he was excited instead of fearful. He immediately approached him with confidence and comfort, which is incredibly rare for him. Watching that instant connection gave me complete peace of mind. It’s not often you find someone who is not only reliable and professional, but who also has such a natural connection with animals. I would absolutely trust Leo with Ollie again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.

Katherine took care of our dog in our home while we were away - if she had not been available we wouldn't have booked the tickets. The steady stream of communication, pictures and reassurances (our dog is not the easiest to care for) were amazing. We came home to a healthy and happy dog - who didn't seem to have overly missed us if I'm honest - and tidy home - with flowers on the table to welcome us back. We couldn't be happier with - well - literally everything about how she looked after our dog.

We have a senior dog with stranger anxiety and multiple daily medications and Karuna was wonderful with him. She was really patient and gave him time to warm up to her during a couple meet and greet visits, and then followed his lead when she was house sitting to ensure he felt comfortable with her. Karuna was very communicative and provided frequent updates including photos so we could enjoy our time away, knowing that our dog was well cared for.

Joanna stepped in to take over for another Dogsitter saving my vacation. The transition was seamless. Although I didn’t get the chance to meet Joanna before the sitting, I spoke to her in the phone for at least half an hour and felt very comfortable with her. She took excellent care of my Ozzie, and he even tried to run after her taxi as she rode away. To top it off Joanna washed her sheets and towels before departing. She is a gem whom I would definitely rebook!

We have worked with Raven multiple times in the past for dog walking, and this was the first time we had her stay overnight for house sitting / dog sitting. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for these services! Raven was prompt and trustworthy in her communication, giving us frequent updates and also leaving our home just as tidy as she found it. We know our pup is in great hands with Raven, and we’ve already booked her again for our next upcoming trip where we will need multiple days of overnight care.
