Aleks is the best! As soon as my anxious (and slightly reactive) dog saw her, they instantly bonded! She was always on time, very responsive, and most of all did a great job with Chewie. I was comfortable and at ease leaving them in my hotel room while I work and I didn’t feel guilty as she did a great job taking walks and accompanying her for naps and playtime. Even gave my dog a bath and played Classical music in the background which I now discovered calms her down! Thank you Aleks!

First time having Jarrod watch our Leo and during the busy holidays too! Very impressed with how Jarrod got along with Leo and that Leo was so well taken care of while we were gone! Our home was left as nice as when we left it and most importantly, our lil guy was happy and healthy when we got home! Definitely booking again!!!

Sarah was able to fill in at the last moment when we had a sitter cancellation. Initial request, explanatory texts, and meeting our new pups all transpired within a couple of days. She was sensitive to our new dog’s uncertainties as they experienced a pet sitter for the first time at two months since their adoption. Sarah rose to the few challenges that came up while keeping us well informed with texts, photos and videos. And the dogs, even the skittish one, soon accepted her as one of their own.

Kristin is amazing! She sent photos and communicated the entire time on my trip. I never had to worry that my dog and cat weren’t receiving the best care. I could tell she treated girls and home like her own. I also came home to a spotless house - so thankful!

This is the best dog sitting experience I have had in awhile! Allison is very detail oriented and i felt comfortable with her right from the meet and greet. I have two cattledog mixes, and she made sure that their energy needs were met but also they got their snuggle time too! She gave plenty of updates and we came back to a clean and organized home. I had no worries and was able to enjoy my time away. I cannot recommend her enough and i look forward to the next time we need to book her again in the future.

About: I've always had pets ever since I was very little, I adore all pets. I have had many, and currently have kitties and a puppy! I know a lot on how to care for them, and love playing with them to keep them happy and stimulated. I currently spend most of my time at home with my own pets, I occasionally babysit family as well. I love spending time outside, and hiking with my pets too! When I do in home care or check-ups I always want to make sure the pet is well taken care for so I always check their water, food, and let them go potty if it's a dog. I play with each pet to make them happy and have a fun activity, also walks are great. I can walk for miles if you have a dog that loves or needs a long walk, I'm all about keeping your pet happy and healthy!

Ana is fantastic pet sitter and took incredible great care of my two dogs, handling their food, medication, and gave them plenty of love and attention. They also had a chance to interact with her dog Sadie, who is extremely chill and gets along well with other dogs. She provided me with frequent updates and pictures and is my goto for rover sits.

Crystal stayed with my pups Bean & Benji for about a week. She was super communicative from the start and regularly sent updates/pics of my babies. Upon my return, the dogs were happy and healthy and my place was undisturbed. I’m SO grateful everything went smoothly and I was able to be in the moment at my sister’s wedding knowing my babies were in good hands. Will definitely keep Crystal at the forefront of my mind for the future. THANK YOU CRYSTAL!!!

Roni was a lifesaver after I had a last minute cancellation. We were able to meet and establish a dog-sitter relationship quickly and efficiently. Roni was communicative and sympathetic in a stressful moment for me. My dog, who can be slow to warm up with stranger, accepted Roni quickly. They followed instructions well and I’m excited to have such a good option next time I go on a trip.

About: Hello Rover, I have cared for a bichon growing up, his name was Louis. He was fun , loving and a sweet dog. He enjoyed meeting new dogs and people. I would enjoy taking him on walks and playing catch with him. He lived a long and full life. He passed away when he was Thirteen years old. My family was sadden of the loss and after sometime we all decided to add another member to the family. We got another bichon . His name is Charlie . He is such a sweet dog . He enjoys going on walks and playing catch and going to the local dog park. He also enjoys meeting new people and spending time with other dogs. I am looking forward becoming friends with your furry friend.

Peyton was an amazing sitter for our pups! She was super communicative, ensured they were active and well fed, and sent lots of photos. She also went the extra mile and took great care of our house, something that we would never expect of a dog sitter. We’re super happy with peyton and would definitely book again!

So happy we found Kaitie! She completely exceeded our expectations. She sent the most amazing photos throughout the stay and kept communication open the whole time — it made being away so much easier knowing my guy was in good hands. When I came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had the time of his life. The house was clean and tidy. We'll absolutely be booking her again!
