“Katherine is always so amazing at watching our pup Luna! We fully trust her. She follows directions so well and takes great care of our pup and our house while we are away!”


2. Katie F.

“Katie was wonderful! She not only was able to watch my dog on a fairly short notice but she also watched my dog during the coldest week we have had all winter. She sent pics of dog snuggles and kept in contact while we were gone. She is a gem and will be calling her again!”


3. Maggie L.


“Maggie was absolutely perfect! Our pets felt completely at ease with her, and she was a perfect house guest! She responded quickly to our texts, and sent frequent photos of our fur babies. We highly recommend Maggie for your pet sitting needs!”

“This was our first house/dog sitting experience with Connie and she was fantastic. Excellent communicator, house is in great shape, dog is happy and normal, everything is excellent. Connie clearly goes above and beyond!”


7. Nicole P.

“Nicole is amazing! We lost one of our cats just days before our trip leaving her sister behind. She was able to add some more days and kept Willow comfortable during a time of grief and stress along with eye drops for her. We are so greatful to have had her as our sitter. I was even under a lot of stress and anxiety but she was absolutely amazing the whole way through. Thank you Nicole!”




8. Mackenzie R.

“Mackenzie did a wonderful job! She stopped by twice one day and even stayed overnight when one of my cats needed extra attention. My cats loved all the having her stop in and I felt much better knowing she was spending so much time with them while I was visiting family out of state for Xmas. I really appreciated how flexible she was! She did an awesome job with communication- both of my cats are over 14 and one has not been eating well. She spent extra time offering different choices to get him to eat something each visit.”


9. Aida K.

“This is the second time Aida watched our 2 big and high energy dogs and she did a great job! She was flexible in accommodating our last minute housesit request, made sure our dogs are happy and they seemed to enjoy her company!”


10. Lucy E.

“Lucy was fantastic, the best house sitter I’ve found on Rover to date! She was extremely accommodating and was available for my last minute request. She was prompt in her communication and gave me updates on how the pups were doing. She also took them for walks which was such a nice surprise! I will definitely be booking with Lucy in the future! Thank you!”


11. Mary S.

“Mary was great! She had good communication leading up to the booking and sent me updates throughout the day. She was flexible with our schedule and able to accommodate our needs. She took great care of our puppy, he was happy and tired when we got home :) We can't wait to have Mary back!”


12. Kaitlin A.

“Kaitlin was awesome! Our two big dogs loved hanging out with her and we were grateful that she was available to watch them all week. It's really nice knowing that your pets are well taken care of. Kaitlin sent us daily updates with pictures and we came home to happy, excited boys. Would book again in a heartbeat!”


13. Stefan R.


“Stefan took great care of our senior dog while we were out of town and it was the first time leaving him at home. Stefan is very responsive, responsible and a great communicator.”


14. Bianca M.
“Bianca and Dan were great. They followed all the directions I gave them for my dog Reina. While I was on vacation they kept me informed on Reina and sent pictures every day. They really cared for Reina. Thank you again Bianca and Dan.”


15. Vanessa L.

“People usually aren't capable of perfection more than once, but Vanessa seems to be able to pull that off every time. I've used her for three trips so far, each one a week long. She is great. I NEVER worry when I am away now. She leaves the house cleaner than I left it for her (despite my grand efforts--but I was one-handed since I was awaiting surgery, so, alas...). She sends me updates and photos, and I know my pets are in great hands with her. She knows my house and my pets so well now that I can "turn her loose," so to speak, and know that she will know what to do and what to expect. Again, thank you, Vanessa, for saving my sanity. You are a comfort to my over-emotional pet mama self.”


16. Kassidy G.

“Kassidy was wonderful! Her communication was excellent and she took great care of my pup while I was away. She sent pics and routine updates to keep me informed. Would highly recommend and will request her services again!”


17. Corinne S.

“Corinne was great! We were able to connect with her a few times before her first time watching our dog, and he was well taken care of! She has a lot of experience with foster dogs, which made us feel confident she'd take good care of our dog. Thanks Corinne!”


18. Sandra S.
“Sandy is very caring and compassionate when caring for my dog. Sandy has dog sat for me on various occasions I find that she is very responsible and trustworthy. My dog sees Sandy across the driveway and immediately starts to whine for her attention. She stops what she is doing to come pay attention to him”


19. Alissandra S.

“We used Alissandra’s services for our cat while we were on vacation. Very responsible! Great communication! Gave Kiwi so much love and attention and sent lots of photos. Felt he was in great care❤️ Would definitely recommend and would use again!”




20. Joanna L.

“Joanna took great care of our westie Mac who became great friend with Joanna's dog Morrison. Actually Mac is missing his playing partner . Joanna and Morrison spent two weeks with Mac and we received a lot of photos of their play time and lounging on the couch together. Joanna left our home in the same state we had left it in,( she even folded laundry left in the dryer!!) she picked up medications for Mac and had no problem giving him oral meds. We were abroad for 2 weeks and felt completely at peace.”
