“Brandon was a great choice to take care of our boys Del & Rio while we were away. He was very communicative, providing updates and photos each day. It's clear that he has a lot of love & compassion for animals and really makes a personal connection with them. It was nice to know he understood Del & Rio so well and they were in good hands. Thank you Brandon!”
“We recently had the pleasure of having Sam watch our two dogs for nearly an entire week, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention he provided. Sam went above and beyond, even rearranging his work schedule to make sure our dogs were well looked after. He maintained their regimented routine, preparing their unique meals twice a day and taking them out for potty breaks and exercise an additional 3-4 times per day. His conscientiousness really showed in everything he did. Sam stayed overnight in our home, ensuring our dogs felt safe, secure, and comfortable in our absence. His communication was excellent—he sent us multiple photo updates throughout each day, which gave us such peace of mind. It was clear from the photos (and when we returned!) that our dogs were happy, calm, and well cared for. Honestly, I don’t think they even realized we were gone! Sam is incredible with animals, and it’s obvious he has a natural connection with dogs. He’s also friendly, respectful, and trustworthy. Knowing he was there allowed us to enjoy a much-needed vacation without any worry. We’re already planning to book Sam again for our next trip! If you’re looking for someone dependable, kind, and dedicated to caring for your pets as if they were his own, we can’t recommend Sam highly enough. Thank you again, Sam!”
“Watched my baby for a few days and were extremely easy to deal with and took great care of my dog while I was out of town. Thank you both! 10/10 would book again.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for my cat Lilith, she loved Emma from start. Emma provided me with daily pictures, videos and updates, she’s extremely knowledgeable in pet care and demonstrates her love for animals, my cat misses her already.”
“Samantha is amazing! So much so that we schedule her before we schedule our trips. We have dogs, cats, foster dogs and ball pythons and she is experienced with them all! She has no hesitation to contact us with questions, follows instructions to a T, and alerts us if anything is off. She is also an amazing house sitter and makes sure things are clean, orderly and that the pets didn’t make too much of a mess. If she can’t watch my pets, we simply don’t go. I would pay an arm and a leg for Samantha’s services just to feel comfortable while I’m away. I’ve had sitters in the past that have neglected my animals and ghosted my animals for 24+ hours. Never again! Samantha is our one and only!”
“Roxanne is the best sitter!! Our pets Blue and Chloe have the best time and she treats them like her own. She is responsible, kind, courteous, and great at communicating and giving updates! We plan on booking with her again!!!”
“Abigail was absolutely wonderful with our pets! We have very high energy dogs and she kept them entertained and happy! We highly recommend her and will book her again in the future!”
“This was my first time in about 3 years of having to leave Xena alone with a sitter, I'm not sure who was more anxious, me or the dog. After the meet and greet with Leah, I knew that her and Xena would be friends. Leah was great at keeping my nerves at bay by providing updates and sending pictures. Xena was genuinely excited to have Leah watch her and that makes me happy. I could not recommend Leah enough - she was fantastic.”
“Jessica was fantastic watching Bucky for me while went to the movies. Both Bucky and I have separation anxiety so I wanted someone with him. She took excellent care of him, playing with him, making sure he ate, and even walked him twice. She was very sweet and professional I will book with her again jd”
About: I have experience with taking care of pets since a young age when my grandparents decided to foster 6 dogs at once!! I personally have always had pets in my life and as an adult, I currently have 4 dogs- 3 senior dogs whom I've raised since puppy and the newest edition is a 3 yr old! They are my fur babies and I hope you let me take care of yours :) I currently work from home - mon - friday. I am available to leave home and tend to your pet as needed. Weekends are open and available to spend as much time with your pets as needed My pets are indoor pets (aka spoiled couch dwellers) and I have a fenced in yard. I take them (4 dogs) on walks when needed or run around with them in the back yard. Safety is always a priority and I have two big windows and sliding door to the back yard so there are always eyes on the dogs when outside.
“Sonia was so kind to take a last minute booking for a family emergency. She came for a meet and greet and asked great questions to make sure she was prepared. She was communicative and sent pictures throughout the stay, and followed through the schedule we had discussed. She definitely seems like a dog whisperer, when she came to bring the key back, my dog stood at the door watching her! I would absolutely welcome her back to house/dog sit.”
“Rebeccahlynn did such an amazing job taking care of our dogs in our home. I honestly think they want to go home with her. Both of our dogs had medical needs for their time with her and she followed all instructions to a T. She was with them the entire time, as she can work from anywhere. That was such a plus for us. She sent several updates with some really great pictures. I never worried while Rebeccahlynn was caring for them, she was worth every penny. She is a great person and treated our dogs like her own. She will be our go to from now on.”
“She was an absolute gem. I had a last minute trip planned, and I had to make arrangements for my two high maintenance dogs. Erica house sat for me last minute and did amazing with my two huskies. When I got home, my huskies were tired (that’s an impressive feat on its own), and my house was clean of husky dust. She definitely didn’t have to sweep and whatnot but she did! I would book her again in a heartbeat.”
“Jose was awesome. Great with our pup, respectful of our space, and in communication with us throughout. He was flexible and just great to work with. Will definitely use again and again!”

About: I’ve had a dog in my home almost every day of my very long life! I have assisted my housemate in caring for dogs both in and out of our home for the last five years. I am currently retired, so I am available most of the time. As long as we can keep to a schedule, all will be great! I have a very large fenced yard and a medium sized dog eager to make new friends so they can run and play. Then afterwards they can stretch out on the furniture for a nap

“I have known Liz for years and she is a very caring and responsible person. She has been to my home numerous times and I have visited hers as well. Whenever she is at my house, my dog is drawn to her and Liz pets her incessantly. At her home, she is very attentive to her guests and always goes above and beyond in providing for their comfort. I would not hesitate to have Liz care for my dog.”

Jeremiah was fantastic! We were so worried leaving our boy Gino to go in vacation. If you are familiar with cane corsos, they are known to be Velcro dogs. They tend to get depressed when their humans are not close to them. Jeremiah did an exceptional job in taking care of Gino and making him feel safe. Gino took very well to him. Our house was very well taken care of as well. We will definitely be using Jeremiah as our sitter for any future trips.
Samantha was the absolute best! It’s not often we leave our pups especially for a week and a half so we were nervous to find someone we trusted to take care them and make them feel good while we were gone- Samantha did that and more! Sent pictures and updates everyday and also we truly could tell she loved being around our pups which gave us a sense of ease. Highly recommend her if you are looking for a sitter while you are away!
Taewon was phenomenal with my two pups. Especially since my doodle ended up getting ill and required a very stringent medication plan. I was already a nervous wreck having to be gone for so long and he put my worries right at ease. He deserves pup taker of the year award!!! He communicated every day, asking if there were other things to try/consider, and genuinely treated my fur babies as though he was the their owner and they loved him as I could tell in their daily pictures. He was very respectful of my home and left everything immaculate! 10/10 recommend especially if your pets are seniors, require a little more care, or have medication needs.
Sonia was so kind to take a last minute booking for a family emergency. She came for a meet and greet and asked great questions to make sure she was prepared. She was communicative and sent pictures throughout the stay, and followed through the schedule we had discussed. She definitely seems like a dog whisperer, when she came to bring the key back, my dog stood at the door watching her! I would absolutely welcome her back to house/dog sit.
Ana did an incredible job watching our two dogs for an entire week. We met twice before our trip and she asked all the right questions and was extremely thorough. She sent us updates throughout each day and it may us feel so confident and happy to know our pups were in good hands. Our pups take meds and have a specific routine and she was able to follow it perfectly. She’s great with communication and taking care of fur children. She’s truly an animal lover. She even brushed them and helped coordinate other visitors coming to the house. I highly recommend Ana!
Harley was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our boys, and it was clear they were completely comfortable with her. Knowing they were in such good hands while we were away gave us tremendous peace of mind. She kept us updated with messages and photos, and was always quick to respond whenever we reached out. I highly recommend Harley to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter—she treats your pets as if they were her own.
Maddie was an amazing dog sitter and I could not have asked for anything more! My dog has severe separation anxiety and I was very uneasy about leaving her for an extended period of time, but from the impression I got from the meet and greet before hand I felt a little more comfortable, and after the first picture they sent me I could tell from the look on her face that Shiek was doing great! This gave me the peace of mind to let me enjoy my trip, and the updates and pictures they sent me through out would make my day. I would highly recommend Maddie to anyone looking for somebody to take care of or spend some time with their pets and I will definitely be reaching out to her again for any future Rover needs!
